David and his assistants were not the only ones who came to San Francisco by helicopter, there were also several armed security guards, as well as Liangzi, Li Yu and their group.
Liangzi and the others have all graduated and have already joined Feilong Zaitian Exploration Company.
Although the company has not officially opened yet, they are already working in the company, and they are following Davis to familiarize themselves with some things in the antique shop these days.
When Xiao Ran called David before, he asked David to bring these guys to San Francisco and take this opportunity to practice.
Because the streets of Chinatown are so narrow, the helicopter cannot land at all.
The three medium-sized helicopters they took could only land in a nearby open-air parking lot before rushing to the antique store in Chinatown.
After a while, David and the others arrived at Songshizhai.
At this time, these guys were very excited, and their eyes were shining.
Especially for Ryoko and the others, this was their first long-distance flight in a helicopter.
It took two or three hours to fly, covering more than 600 kilometers, from Los Angeles to San Francisco.
More importantly, this is their first time participating in a treasure hunt.
Although they were just doing odd jobs, they were very excited.
As soon as they entered Songshizhai, these guys couldn't wait to ask:
"What treasure did you find here? Xiao Ran actually called everyone over to clean up."
"Are there any priceless top-notch antiques and works of art here? Let me tell you about them."
Xiao Ran looked at these guys, smiled and shook his head.
"There are some things that we can't say yet. Once you sign the contract and return to Los Angeles, you will naturally know the answer."
“The top priority now is to get this deal done.”
"I'll give you a task. Take photos and videos of every item here and save them as data."
Before he finished speaking, Liangzi and the others nodded in agreement:
"Don't worry, leave these things to us."
Subsequently. These guys got busy.
Xiao Ran briefly introduced the situation to David, and then walked into the reception area with the Wang family siblings and their lawyer to start talks and sign a contract.
Since the transaction price had been negotiated before and both parties had reached an agreement on the contract content, the talks went very smoothly.
In less than twenty minutes, both parties had signed their names on the transaction contract, and David and the other party's lawyer also signed.
At Xiao Ran's request, everyone from the Wang family who participated in the money sharing signed the contract.
Not only that, Elaine also took a cell phone and filmed the entire meeting and signing process as video evidence.
As soon as the contract was signed, Xiao Ran transferred the payment to the Wang brothers and sisters, exactly.
A moment later, the Wang brothers and sisters received calls from the bank manager one after another, confirming that all the payment had been received.
At this point, the transaction of antiques, cultural relics and artworks has just been completed.
After confirming that the payment had been received, the Wang family brothers and sisters immediately cheered and celebrated, and they were all ecstatic.
Xiao Ran put away the transaction contract and walked to the exhibition area with Elaine and David, preparing to instruct his men to start packing.
As a result, before he could say anything, Boss Zhai and others could not wait to greet him.
"Congratulations, Xiao Xiao, you finally got what you wanted and took all the goods here. This generosity is really amazing."
"Now can we pick two treasures and let's talk about the transaction?"
Boss Zhai said enviously and full of expectations.
"Of course, no problem, Boss Zhai, what kind of treasures do you have your eyes on? I'm very interested."
"As I said just now, each of you can pick two treasures you like and come to negotiate a deal with me."
"As long as those two treasures can be sold, I will sell them to you at a 20% discount."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
"ah!"
Suddenly there was an exclamation from the side.
The Wang brothers and sisters were shocked when they heard these words.
Invariably, each of them had a vague feeling that something was wrong.
Boss Zhai and others glanced at these guys with disdain, shook their heads, and turned around to pick out their favorite treasures.
"What's going on? Mr. Xiao, are you planning to sell some antiques to these antique dealers?"
Wang Yude said in surprise.
"Yes, that's true. This is what Boss Zhai and I just agreed upon. It's not a good idea to go back on it."
Xiao Ran explained a few words, but didn't say much.
After a while, Boss Zhai came back.
He held two things in his hand, a purple clay pot and a shadow celadon jade pot and spring vase.
These two items are not big, delicate and compact, and contain precious light. They are suitable for holding and playing with.
Coming closer, Boss Zhai carefully placed the two treasures on a prepared slip.
Xiao Ran glanced at the two treasures on the receipt, but shook his head slightly.
"Xiao Xiao, these are the two gadgets I like."
"I like these two treasures very much. How about selling them to me?"
Boss Zhai said expectantly.
What an old fox!
If you want to pick up big leaks here, what are you dreaming about?
Xiao Ran secretly complained, and then said with a smile:
"Two gadgets? Boss Zhai really knows how to joke!"
"The Big Dipper is high, the South Dipper is low, the Milky Way is flowing down, and the Langan is hanging. Does this pot inscription sound familiar?"
"If I'm not mistaken, this purple clay pot should be a joint fight from the Eighteen Forms of Man Sheng!"
"ah!"
Boss Zhai exclaimed and was stunned.
At this time, he looked at Xiao Ran with eyes full of disbelief.
At the same time, he was also a little embarrassed, as if someone had seen through the trick and had caught him.
Xiao Ran turned a blind eye and continued to introduce the situation.
"The signature of 'Amantuo Chamber' on the body of the pot, combined with other features, is enough to prove it."
"This is a joint pot designed by Chen Mansheng, a master of calligraphy and painting in the Qing Dynasty, and handmade by top pot-making masters Yang Pengnian and Yang Fengnian, brother and sister!"
"In the field of purple clay teapot collection, this Mansheng teapot is a supreme treasure and extremely rare!"
"I'm very sorry, Boss Zhai, I can't bear to sell this handed down Mansheng teapot, but I plan to collect it myself."
"But I can tell you the price of this Mansheng pot, the minimum price will not be less than 3.5 million US dollars!"
Not surprisingly, the scene and live broadcast room were filled with excitement.
Everyone who could understand Chinese was shocked and dumbfounded.
"What? Did I hear it correctly? A purple clay pot worth 3.5 million US dollars!"
"Isn't this too exaggerated? Isn't it just a purple clay teapot, and it can be so expensive?"
exclaimed the comfortable Borg.
"When I traveled to Yixing, I heard about the Eighteen Styles of Mansheng, and also heard about Yang Pengnian and Yang Fengnian, two top pot-making masters in the Qing Dynasty!"
"The Mansheng Eighteen-Style Zisha Teapot seems to be called the King of Chinese Pots and is the supreme treasure in the Zisha world."
Jiangnan ruffian continued.
Before he finished speaking, Mr. Jin, Mr. Qin and others sent several barrages one after another.
"If this purple clay teapot was really designed by master Chen Mansheng and made by Er Yang himself, then the price of US$3.5 million is too low!"
"Based on the current situation, this Mansheng Eighteen-Style Combat Fighter is most likely the work of Er Yang, and it is a priceless treasure!"
With these barrages from Jin Lao and others, both live broadcast rooms went crazy.
No one has any doubts about the appraisal conclusion given by Xiao Ran.
Song Shi Zhai.
Everyone in the Wang family seemed to have been struck by lightning. They all froze in place and their eyes almost exploded with shock.
They couldn't believe it even to death that such a small purple clay teapot was worth at least 3.5 million US dollars!
This is absolutely crazy!
If this purple clay teapot named He Dou is worth US$3.5 million, are there many antique artifacts and works of art in the store that are even more valuable?
Does their combined total value far exceed US$11.3 million, far exceed US$100 million, or even higher?
Thinking of this, everyone in the Wang family suddenly felt a heart-pounding pain and almost fainted on the spot!
Looking at Boss Zhai's old fox again, while he was shocked, the expression on his face became more and more embarrassing.
Xiao Ran glanced disdainfully at the Wang family who were mourning for their heirs, and then continued:
"Boss Zhai, let's talk about this shadow celadon jade pot and spring vase."
"I believe you have also noticed that this is a celadon-glazed jade vase from the Longquan kiln of the Yuan Dynasty. It is very beautiful and extremely rare."
"I am willing to sell this treasure, but the offer is 1.8 million US dollars. I wonder if you can accept it?"
"ah!"
There was another exclamation at the scene, and everyone was shocked.
Before the exclamations could end, someone from the Wang family plopped down and sat on the ground, lost in thought.
Boss Zhai smiled awkwardly and then expressed a few words of emotion.
"The waves behind you in the Yangtze River push the waves ahead! I really admire you, boy, your vision is so sharp!"
"I have been secretly planning these two treasures for five or six years, but in the end, your kid saw through them at a glance!"
"I have to say, it's a bit embarrassing!"
"Hahaha"
Xiao Ran laughed loudly.
At this moment, another antique dealer has returned here.
The treasure he held in his hand was the bronze cup that Xiao Ran had seen before, as well as a calligraphy work.
The moment he saw the bronze cup, Xiao Ran laughed helplessly again.
"Boss Chen, what you are holding is the Phoenix Bird Pattern of the Western Zhou Dynasty, a national treasure-level cultural relic!"
"Without $20 million, no one can take away that treasure!"
Before he finished speaking, there was a thud.
Wang Yude also fell to the ground, his face turned purple.
The rest of the Wang family, every one of them, was trembling all over and almost died of pain!
