District 8, Red Mansion.

After passing through the simple and luxurious gate, then passing through a corridor rich in Chinese culture, and then walking up a flight of stairs, Xiao Ran truly entered the first floor hall of the Red Building.

This is an ancient, yet extremely luxurious and heartbreaking Chinese world.

Looking around, there are antique cultural relics and works of art from China everywhere, including some exquisite treasures.

Without exception, all the Chinese antiques, cultural relics and works of art here were stolen and sold by the traitor Lu Qinzhai. Every piece is stolen!

And this is only a small part of the Chinese antique artworks that Lu Qinzhai resold overseas.

The rest of the Chinese antiques and artworks, which are more numerous and of higher value, were sold by this traitor to various foreign devils and scattered all over the world!

Looking at the situation on the first floor of the Red Building, Xiao Ran couldn't help but remain silent.

The tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms were as lively as a boiling pot.

"Fuck! This hall is so luxurious. It's basically a palace. There are too many antiques and artworks here!"

"Just from the situation in this hall, we can see how many antiques Lu Qinzhai stole and sold back then. The number must be astonishing. Such a big traitor should really be cut to pieces!"

Everyone started talking one after another, either sending barrages or chatting in various directions.

At this time, the barrage scrolling at the top of several live broadcast rooms was as fast as lightning, which was dizzying!

The next moment, Xiao Ran suddenly bit his back teeth and said:

"Yes, a big traitor like Lu Qinzhai should indeed be cut into pieces with a thousand swords and his bones reduced to ashes!"

"Even if his ten tribes are killed, it will not be able to make up for the huge damage this traitor has caused to the country and the nation."

Following his words, tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms echoed.

It's a pity that Lu Qinzhai has been dead for decades and has long turned into a handful of bones.

If he were still alive, he would definitely be drowned in the spit of countless people.

After a few angry words of condemnation, Xiao Ran adjusted his mood and began to introduce the situation here.

"As you can see now, the first and second floors of the Red Building are completely a Chinese world."

"What is displayed here are all antiques, cultural relics and works of art from China. They are all treasures stolen and sold by Lu Qinzhai from China."

"The end of these Chinese antique cultural relics and works of art cover almost all dynasties below the Shang and Zhou dynasties"

As he spoke, he reached out and touched the stone railing beside him.

Then he observed it carefully and then introduced:

"For example, this stone carving guardrail with a crude and elegant shape and obvious signs of weathering on the surface should come from the Tang Dynasty."

"If I read it correctly, this should be something unearthed from a certain Tang Dynasty tomb. To be more precise, it should be the guardrail in front of the tomb!"

"It's a pity that there are no words or marks on this guardrail, only some complicated and exquisite patterns. It is currently impossible to determine the exact origin of this stone guardrail!"

While he was explaining, the technical team quickly showed a close-up of the stone guardrail.

It can be clearly seen from the close-up that the stone carving guardrail adopts the techniques of openwork and round carving, and there are a large number of incised fine lines, which are used to express details, just like line drawings in paintings.

Although it has gone through thousands of years, it has obviously weathered.

But on this stone guardrail, you can still clearly see a broad and magnificent momentum, graceful, generous, romantic and unrestrained, just like a prosperous age!

Seeing these detailed pictures, several appraisal experts in the live broadcast room gave their appraisal conclusions one after another.

"Yes, this is indeed a stone guardrail from the Tang Dynasty, and it comes from the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It is in the same vein as the artistic style of Longmen Grottoes!"

"This stone guardrail should be found in Luoyang. At the beginning of the last century, Lu Qinzhai swept away countless antique cultural relics and works of art from Luoyang, which should include this stone guardrail."

As these identification conclusions came out, tens of thousands of fans in several live broadcast rooms all paid their respects to Lu Qinzhai's eight generations of ancestors!

Xiao Ran smiled softly and continued to walk forward.

During the trip, he kept introducing every antique and artifact he saw.

"Everyone looks at this pair of Ruyi drum stones. They are rare top-quality white marble drum stones. Judging from the characteristics, they should come from the middle and late Ming Dynasty, and they can only be used by princes' families."

"The caisson in front of me has a distinct Wei and Jin style. It is a caisson from the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Needless to say, it was definitely dug out of a large tomb of the Wei and Jin Dynasties!"

"These pieces of furniture are all from the early Qing Dynasty. They are imitation Ming-style furniture. They are worth collecting and playing with. Unfortunately, the wood is not very interesting. If it is huanghuali or red sandalwood, it will definitely be worth more than one million."

"Like those pieces of mahogany furniture, these painted screens also come from the early Qing Dynasty. Judging from the production style, they should come from the same mansion as those pieces of mahogany furniture and be made at the same time."

"Look at these landscape paintings. They all come from the Qing Dynasty. They can be found in the early, middle and late periods. Unfortunately, they are not works by famous artists. Their market value is not very high, but they are all very good..."

With his introduction, everyone's understanding of the Red Mansion quickly became deeper.

Every time he introduces a treasure, everyone will angrily greet Lu Qinzhai’s eight generations of ancestors!

At the same time, many fans' eyes were shining and they made purchase requests.

"Xiao Ran, my boss wants to buy the pair of white marble drum stones to place in front of the hanging flower door of his courtyard house. The price is easy to negotiate. Just make an offer!"

"I want that set of early Qing Dynasty mahogany furniture and those picture screens. Xiao Ran, can you sell me those treasures?"

"Are those landscape paintings for sale? I want to buy them for collection and play..."

Xiao Ran did not respond to the snowflake request for purchase.

It's not the right time yet, it's the wisest thing to continue to whet everyone's appetite.

Xiao Ran visited very quickly, visiting and introducing things like a quick tour.

Even so, it still took him nearly half an hour to show everyone around the lobby on the first floor of the Red Building.

After visiting the lobby on the first floor, he walked up to the second floor.

What then appeared in front of everyone was a more magnificent world of Chinese antiques, full of Chinese cultural colors, and it made people feel distressed just to look at it!

Fortunately, this place now belongs to Xiao Ran, and everything here belongs to him.

In the future, he will try his best to transport all the Chinese antiques and artworks that can be transported back to Beijing.

Then display them in your own private museum, or sell them domestically, to domestic museums or collectors!

As for the Red Mansion in Paris, just get some high imitations to replace it!

Xiao Ran stood at the entrance of the exhibition hall on the second floor and was stunned for a moment before he woke up.

Even though he had already looked through this place countless times, he was still shocked by the magnificence of this place when he was there.

After a short pause, he walked into the exhibition hall.

Take tens of thousands of fans along for the tour and make introductions.

"As you can see, the walls of the second-floor exhibition hall are covered with lacquer paintings of various flowers and birds, as well as caissons with flower and bird reliefs, etc."

"Some of these lacquered wall panels and embossed caissons with flowers and birds and figures come from the Ming Dynasty and some from the early Qing Dynasty. Although their value is not very high, they are of great collection value!"

"It is difficult to find so many treasures like this even in China, let alone use them to decorate the walls..."
