Fifth Avenue, evening.
Xiao Ran and the others had just driven away from Wall Street and were on their way back to the Plaza Hotel.
Most of the treasures collected from the Art Space Auction House have been stored in a vault at Goldman Sachs Bank with constant temperature and humidity, which is very safe.
Xiao Ran only left three portable safes with him, preparing to go back to the hotel to clean and identify them.
Two of the safes contained Chinese paintings and calligraphy works that were in poor condition.
Among those paintings and calligraphy works, there are two priceless treasures that he values the most, and they are also the biggest gains of this treasure hunt.
In his opinion, the artistic and cultural value of these two treasures is much higher than those of Paganini's violins.
Of course, market value is another matter.
In today's world antique art market, the market value of Western antique art is still higher. This is an objective fact.
But this situation should not last long, and it will not take many years for the situation to be reversed!
Since the preservation of these two treasures was in poor condition, he planned to clean them up himself with the help of clairvoyance.
After completing the cleaning and taking some preliminary protection measures, he was ready to send these priceless treasures back to Beijing as soon as possible.
After it is sent to Beijing, top cultural and museum experts from the Forbidden City and the National Museum will be invited to carry out all-round repairs, protection, and mounting.
Only in this way can these priceless treasures be protected and passed on.
Another portable safe contained some miscellaneous treasures.
These include the red Bafang box and two Xuande furnaces.
He plans to authenticate these miscellaneous items through live video broadcast and auction some of them in the live broadcast room.
Otherwise, fans in the live broadcast room will have complaints if their purchasing desire is not released.
As soon as the motorcade left Wall Street, Xiao Ran entered the live broadcast room and started live broadcasting.
As soon as he appeared, the guys in the collector's live broadcast room immediately said:
"Xiao Ran, my boss's daughter is learning violin and really wants those two Stradivarius violins."
"And that Guarneri violin, please give me a price, my boss is ready to take it all!"
"Xiao Ran, my boss also wants a Stradivarius violin. The price is whatever you want, and there will be no counter-offering!"
Listening to these competing acquisition requests, Xiao Ran couldn't help but smile proudly.
Then, he took off the high-definition camera and pointed it at himself, shaking his head helplessly.
"I'm not here to discourage you. Don't even think about those three violins by Paganini. You can't buy them at all!"
"Especially the two Stradivarius violins, they will definitely be listed as art works of art restricted from leaving the country."
"No one can leave the United States with them without permission, not even me!"
"We do not even rule out the possibility that the sale of those two violins will be strictly restricted and can only be sold to Americans."
Before he finished speaking, there was an exclamation in the live broadcast room.
"Ah! Why is this? What the Yankees did is too awesome!"
I am a prophet said in surprise.
"It's really possible. The United States is a country without cultural heritage. How could it let go of such a priceless treasure?"
"I'm afraid Americans have always dreamed of how to be arty. Paganini's Stradivarius violin is undoubtedly very suitable for showing off!"
Lurking in the World said with a smile.
Following his words, laughter immediately erupted in the live broadcast room.
After the laughter subsided, Xiao Ran nodded and said:
"Yes, what the Americans want is to be arty and increase their cultural heritage. They will never let go of Paganini's Stradivarius violin."
"Any other European and American country would probably do the same thing. You can refer to Paganini's other violin for this."
"That is a violin made by Guarneri Jesus, also known as a cannon. It is one of Paganini's favorite violins."
"The cannon is stored in Genoa. It is one of Italy's national treasures. For the past two hundred years, the violin has been guarded by dedicated personnel."
“That violin can’t even leave Italy, it can’t even leave its collection in Genoa.”
"Countless top violin masters dream of playing a piece of music on that violin, but very few of them get their wish."
"These two Stradivarius violins are also of that level. You can only imagine how the US government will take them seriously!"
Following his words, there was an exclamation of exclamation in the live broadcast room.
Those guys who were waving checks to buy these three violins suddenly stopped.
However, some guys who wanted to buy the two violas and cellos came out with hope.
Xiao Ran did not give them a definite answer and could only wait and see how the situation develops.
About ten minutes later, Xiao Ran and the others returned to the Plaza Hotel successfully.
For safety reasons, they entered the hotel directly from the underground garage and went straight to the presidential suite on the top floor.
As soon as he entered the suite, a familiar figure suddenly rushed over.
The person who jumped at me was none other than Swift, who had just arrived in New York today.
At this time, her face was red with excitement and she was dancing.
"Sean, you are so amazing, you have actually created another miracle!"
"I saw the video of you discovering the two Stradivarius violins. Let me appreciate those two priceless treasures."
While cheering, Swifty rushed to the front.
Seeing her coming towards her, Xiao Ran, carrying a portable safe, quickly reached out to block her.
"Be careful, Swifty, we still have something in our hands!"
Unfortunately, it was a little late to say this.
The next moment, Xiao Ran suddenly felt something.
His right hand seemed to have touched something.
It’s just that the scale is a bit small and not as good as Elaine’s.
He instantly realized what it was.
But he still couldn't help but squeeze it gently, and then withdrew his right hand quickly, a little reluctantly.
Swift's face became even redder and she rolled her eyes at him angrily.
"How's it going? Does it feel good?"
As she said that, she quickly took action and pinched Xiao Ran's arm.
Xiao Ran quickly took a step back and laughed twice.
"Sorry, it was an unintentional mistake. I definitely didn't mean it."
Before he finished speaking, the other hand fell on his waist, pinched the soft flesh of his waist and turned it around hard.
"It feels good, right? Now, don't you feel good too?"
Elaine laughed and cursed in a low voice.
After joking and joking for a while, they walked into the living room of the suite.
This slightly sexy misunderstanding was not taken seriously by anyone.
But the live broadcast room was completely blown away, with wolves howling one after another.
"Fuck! What happened just now? Wasn't I dazzled?"
Brother Wanderer exclaimed with envy.
"Hahaha, you read that right, and you're not dazzled either. Xiao Ran is so pretty!"
"Taylor Swift actually threw herself into her arms and had such a close contact."
"If this spreads out, Swift's fanatical fans will have to eat him!"
Apollo from Mobei said with a smile.
Following these words, there was another burst of laughter in the live broadcast room.
Xiao Ran just smiled and didn't dare to say anything more.
Elaine and Fang Yufei are right next to them. No matter they speak English or Mandarin, they can't hide it. It's better to say less!
Next, he made an appointment with many fans for a live broadcast in the evening, and then exited the live broadcast room.
Afterwards, he and Elaine went into the bathroom to wash and disinfect.
David and the others put down their portable safes, gun bags and other items, and all left the presidential suite one after another and went back to their respective rooms.
About ten minutes later.
Xiao Ran and Elaine finished washing, changed their clothes, and returned to the living room.
At this time, Xiao Ran had a few more bruises on his waist, but they were just covered up.
As soon as she entered the living room and before she sat down, Swift couldn't wait to say:
"Sean, I want to buy some of Paganini's violins. They are priceless treasures for anyone who plays music!"
"Me too, and I studied violin for a while when I was a child, and the devil player Paganini was my idol."
"As long as you are willing to sell those violins to me, I can agree to any conditions, even if you are your girlfriend."
With that said, the super actress gave her a wink.
Seeing this scene, Elaine could not bear it.
"Taylor Swift, you've gone too far, and I'm still here!"
"Can I save some face? How can you snatch someone's boyfriend in front of you like this?"
"Hahaha"
Fang Yufei, who was sitting nearby watching the show, burst out laughing.
Feeling a bit dangerous, Xiao Ran quickly joked and made some excuses.
"Being your boyfriend? Swifty, I think it's better to forget it."
"I'm afraid that you'll end up giving up, and dump me in a few days!"
"What's even more tragic is that you might write me into a song and make me infamous!"
"Hahaha"
The three beauties burst into laughter instantly, all of them laughing so hard that they could hardly sit still.
At this moment, David and Sam suddenly knocked on the door and walked in.
As soon as he entered the door, Sam reported:
"Sean, two agents from the FBI Art Crime Unit are here and want to see you!"
"There are also a few guys from the New York Philharmonic and the Rockefeller Family Foundation who also want to meet you."
After hearing the report, Xiao Ran understood instantly, and a smile flashed in his eyes.
What was supposed to come came as expected, these guys reacted really quickly!
