Everyone's faces changed in unison!

Liu Siyao shouted even more: "Don't talk nonsense!"

"Benjamin is a foreigner, this kind of Western sculpture, he can still see it?"

But as soon as this statement came out.

Including Chang Yuan, the rich and elites from all walks of life present looked at her in unison, and their eyes were extremely strange.

"You, what do you think I'm doing..."Liu Siyao was slightly stunned.

"Still talking?"

Liu Bo immediately frowned and pulled her behind him.

It's not just him.

Benjamin opened his mouth several times, but he just suppressed his temper.

"Mr. Zhu, you said that this is only a preliminary appraisal. ”

In the end, he squeezed out a smile: "So whether that Western sculpture is real or not is not certain." ”

"This..."

Everyone thought to themselves, and their expressions became even more strange.

They are all upper-class people in Sioux City, Benjamin, they can always be seen in major auction houses. I thought that after visiting so many auctions, he would not be able to cook and eat.

Who knows, or doesn't understand anything.

Chang Yuan smiled: "Mr. Benjamin, in a normal sense, if there is no major accident, the preliminary appraisal can represent the final conclusion." ”

This is the consensus of the antique community in Sioux City.

It's just that, for the sake of insurance, no one will talk too much.

“NO！”

Benjamin spreads his hands, the corners of his mouth twitching!

"Mr. Zhu, we watched them walk through the door with our own eyes, and it was less than five minutes ago..."

"How did you identify it in such a short period of time?"

"Now, I seriously doubt your professionalism!"

Zhu Fei smiled, and the monocle on his right eye kept shaking.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone.

He walked over to the stone bed and carefully carried the bronze statue into his arms.

As he walked back, he raised his voice and said, "Everyone, please see." ”

"The net weight of the sculpture is 5.03 kilograms, under the light microscope, the surface molecules are arranged normally, and the copper content is 85%. ”

"Because of the tight schedule, no dating was carried out. ”

"But the parts that show obvious signs of erosion and are not easily accessible also retain their original copper color. ”

"That's right," Chang Yuan nodded as he listened, "At the end of the 19th century, the copper content of Western pure copper sculptures was more than eighty percent. ”

"The degree of wind erosion of this bronze statue is also correct. ”

On Zhu Fei's face, the smile was even stronger.

"Just the age does not objectively reflect the value of the bronze statue. ”

"Look, everybody..."

With his left hand, he carefully held the bottom of the statue, and with the other hand, pointed to the foot of the statue, that is, the front of the bottom.

Everyone looked at each other.

"What is this?"

Suddenly, someone exclaimed!

“D

ouot...”

"At the end of the 19th century, the French sculptors..."

"Eduard Drouot!"

Benjamin stared at the bronze statue, stunned, and a layer of cold sweat oozed from his forehead.

Of course, Liu Siyao was not convinced.

His eyes rolled around, and he snorted coldly and retorted: "This doesn't mean anything, what age is it now, such a crude thing can be made in any factory." ”

"Brother. ”

She turned her head to look at Liu Bo.

"You contact the sculpture village in Anshi City, and let the craftsmen in the village make it exactly the same!"

I thought that my brother must be towards him.

But who knows...

"Shut up!"

Liu Bo's face turned red, and he roared fiercely: "Pay attention to your mannerisms and attitude, and you don't care about the occasion!"

"Brother..."

Liu Siyao's frightened little face turned white and didn't dare to speak.

Chang Yuan nodded secretly.

Zhu Fei is a master in the Jiangnan area and antique appraisal industry, and is also the director of the Department of Cultural Relics Appreciation of Jiangnan University.

The price is such a century-old brand, and you can afford to invite a person like Zhu Fei.

The Liu family in Anshi is certainly nothing.

However, Liu Bo is young, worth hundreds of millions, and can still understand the general situation, not arrogant, which is really rare.

"Humph!"

Benjamin calmed down, but was a little proud.

"It turns out that everyone knows so much, I grew up in the West, and I have never heard of this name. ”

"Who can help introduce Edward Drouot?"

Yes?

The others were stunned.

Édouard Drouot, of course, was a French sculptor at the end of the 19th century!

How else is this introduced?

Honestly.

These wealthy elites do not love art, but purely pursue money.

As the saying goes, "gold in troubled times, antiques in prosperous times".

In peacetime, there is a lot of room for antiques to increase in value, and instead of depositing money in the bank and waiting for depreciation, it is better to exchange it for antiques and wait for a premium.

"The old man is lonely and unheard..."

Even Chang Yuan could only shake his head: "This master has been dead for a hundred years, and the old man only knows that he was famous, but I don't know Mr. Zhu?"

Zhu Fei bowed slightly.

"The rest, everyone has already said, I can only add a little. ”

"A few years ago..."

"The best price was an overseas auction for a sculpture by Eduard Drouot, similar to this one, which is a Greek mythological theme. ”

"He is characterized by a wide range of subjects, smooth lines and great imagination. ”

There was a pause.

Zhu Fei suddenly frowned and didn't say a word.

The others looked at each other, confused. It's only half of what I said, why don't you say it?

Hang people's appetite!

Benjamin laughed!

"Mr. Zhu, I know what you're thinking. ”

He was in a happy mood and paced leisurely in the clearing.

At that auction, the work of Édouard Drouot was not sold. ”

"The price starts at 120,000 and goes all the way to the last second..."

"No one bids either!"

Everyone was shocked in their hearts, and they all looked at Zhu Fei.

His face was gloomy, and he avoided answering, apparently acquiescing.

Liu Siyao woke up suddenly!

"Hahaha..."

His eyes were vicious, and he screamed excitedly: "What did I say?"

"At the end of the day, Benjamin knows more!"

"You guys are all pretending to be big-headed ghosts? I don't know what to ask, and you pretend to be unfathomable..."

Everyone present was silent, and their faces were deeply gloomy. Even Chang Yuan, although faintly angry, could not refute it.

They dip yi

The antique world has been true for many years.

But in China, the most contact, naturally is Chinese antiques, hundreds of overseas countries, thousands of years of history, who can remember clearly...

Remember those artists?

Apparently impossible!

The appearance of everyone being deflated made Benjamin smile even more happily: "What sculpting master?"

"It should be the master of 'unbeaten'!"

"That work at that time, almost a meter high, was a really large sculpture, far from being comparable to this little thing. ”

Zhu Fei choked for a long time.

Benjamin was right.

Although it is not an imitation, Edward Drouot's large-scale sculpture is still unsold, and this palm-sized bronze statue is unlikely to fetch a high price.

I don't know...

Not at all!

"What specialist?"

Liu Siyao rolled her eyes, yin and yang weird: "If you lose such a big person, if it were me, I would have rolled up and gotten out a long time ago." ”

"No shame!"

Zhu Fei's heart was shocked, this is simply the biggest insult to an appraisal expert.

It's a fact!

"You, you're right. ”

He was heartbroken.

After gritting his teeth, he stomped his foot hard.

"It's my fault, I..."

The words are not finished.

Behind him, a sneer suddenly sounded.

"I don't know anything in my hometown, is it that when I get to the door, I can't find my way home?"

Benjamin's eyes widened!

Turning his head suddenly, he saw Jiang Lingyun glancing at him coldly, and slowly walked here.

"Jiang Lingyun, your helper has already admitted defeat. ”

Benjamin's eyes narrowed slightly: "Now, I advise you to say a few words, the police haven't gone far yet!"

Jiang Lingyun turned a deaf ear.

The cold light in his eyes fell on Benjamin, and he couldn't help but shiver!

"Eduard Drouot, who specializes in large-scale sculptures. ”

Come to the front.

Jiang Lingyun took the bronze statue from the sluggish Zhu Fei's hand, flipped it over and over, and looked at it a few times.

"Such a delicate figurine..."

"I'm afraid he hasn't practiced a few times in his life. ”

Others are in the clouds.

They didn't know Jiang Lingyun's origin, so no one took these words seriously.

Only Zhu Fei opened his eyes!

"You mean..."

"This is fake?"
