Chapter 1424 European-style vase

After strolling around the bookstore for a while, Ye Tian and the others said goodbye and left, and walked out of Brown's bookstore.

Next to the bookstore is a shop that sells silverware, the door is open, and there is a lot of silverware inside and outside the store, mainly silver tableware, and all of them are modern crafts.

When walking past this silverware shop, Ye Tian quickly glanced at the silver shop, and then walked in front of the door with Betty without stopping half a step.

Opposite the silversmith shop is a flower shop, where a variety of flowers bloom and decorate Portebellw Street, adding a touch of color and beauty to the place.

Next up is a shop selling antique rugby, antique cricket, and antique golf equipment, with a lot of antique equipment inside and outside the store.

Walking here, Ye Tian couldn't help but stop, began to appreciate these relatively niche antiques, and quickly glanced at the area in sight to see if he could find anything.

Compared to the American collection of sporting goods, the British collection has a much longer history and a wider range of categories, including many traditional British sports, such as cricket.

It's a pity that inside and outside this antique store, Ye Tian didn't find the treasure that made him excited, which was a little regretful!

Although the shop also has some valuable antique equipment and other items, those items are signed with the name of the previous owner and the date written on them, so the value is clear at a glance, and there is no leakage to pick up!

In this regard, all sports antiques in ancient and modern China and foreign countries are the same, only those antiques signed by celebrities or famous generals, and commemorative editions with special significance are valuable, and they are not worth mentioning otherwise.

Even if a cricket bat once belonged to the Queen of England, or even appeared on a major historical occasion, it would not be worth that much if it was bare and there were no signatures or imprints on it!

The reason is very simple, without a signature or other imprint, people will not be able to distinguish its origin, cannot see its special significance, and the value will naturally not go up!

If there are signatures and imprints on it, the value will go up, but it will be difficult to escape the sharp eyes of the antique dealers, so Ye Tian has nothing to pick up here!

Of course, antique equipment made of special materials, such as gold equipment, is not included!

After walking around this antique store, and taking out an antique golf club and waving it lightly at the door of the store, Ye Tian put down the golf club and left the sports antique store with Betty and the others.

Seeing them leave, the owner of the antique shop couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at the same time, it was difficult to hide the disappointment in his eyes.

Although he successfully avoided being picked up, Ye Tian's actions are enough to show that there is no hidden treasure in this store, how not to disappoint the store owner?

Not only the owner of this antique shop, but also the owners of other shops, are very conflicted!

They are not only afraid that Ye Tian will pick up and take away the treasures and wealth that originally belonged to them in their shop, but also hope that Ye Tian will find one or two top-notch antique artworks and make their store famous!

Of course, there is a premise here, that is, Ye Tian found a top antique artwork and gave an accurate valuation, but did not take it away!

Is this possible? Impossible!

Anyone in the field of antiques knows very well that Steven's bastard is extremely greedy and will never let go of any opportunity to pick up a leak, especially those top antique artworks!

Then walking forward, Ye Tian and the others saw shops and stalls selling second-hand bags, antique LV suitcases, second-hand clothing, antique records, souvenirs, and various special snacks!

In these shops and stalls, Ye Tian found a few forgotten antique artworks, although the value is not high, but it is worth selling.

Ye Tian didn't take down the items he found, he sent the relevant information to Bowie, ready to let Bowie take action and secretly sweep the goods!

In a few moments, Bowie would enter the shops or patronize the stalls, and by the time he left, he had made a gain, and a big smile spread across his face.

And Ye Tian and the others continued to stroll on the street not far ahead, as if they were walking in the old days!

Each of them was in a very relaxed state, laughing and chatting while enjoying the scenery on both sides of the street and all kinds of objects!

However, the many security personnel scattered around them are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, always on high alert, ready to respond at any time.

Those security personnel disguised as tourists had already blended into the crowd, walking around Ye Tian and them far or near, secretly protecting Ye Tian and them, and always paying attention to the surrounding situation.

The London policemen from Scotland Yard who followed behind Ye Tian were also on high alert, staring at Ye Tian and them tightly, not daring to relax for a moment!

While speaking, Ye Tian and the others had come to another stall.

This is a porcelain stall, placed on the sidewalk on the right side of the street, the stall is not large, and the goods are not very many, adding up to only thirty or forty pieces, which are placed on solid wood shelves at different heights!

Walking here, Ye Tian immediately stopped, first nodded to the stall owner and said hello, and then looked at the porcelain on the stall.

The porcelain on the stalls includes porcelain from China and local Europe, with different styles and a slightly messy appearance.

After a quick glance at the many porcelains on the stall, Ye Tian pointed to a pair of vases inlaid with copper gilt handles on the second layer of the wooden frame, and asked the stall owner:

"Good morning, sir, I'm Steven, it's a pleasure to meet you, can I see the vase?

The white stall owner in his fifties glanced at Ye Tian deeply, and then turned his head to look at the pair of bells and whistles vases, his eyes showed a little joy and doubt, but more vigilance.

After a moment's thought, the stall owner nodded and said:

"Good morning, Mr. Steven, I'm Andy, welcome to my china stand, I'm glad to meet you, it's an honor!

As he spoke, Andy stepped forward and shook Ye Tian's hand, made a gesture of please, and turned his head to look at the pair of vases again, the doubt in his eyes became even stronger!

"Okay! Mr. Andy, I'll be careful."

Ye Tian nodded in response, then stepped forward, reached out and took a vase from the wooden frame, took it in his hand and began to admire it, looking quite focused!

While admiring this European-style vase, the corner of his eye kept staring at the other vase placed in the corner of the porcelain stall, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes from time to time.

Fortunately, he performed very well, and everyone on the scene, including Betty, did not find anything abnormal.

The vase in the corner is Ye Tian's real goal, and it is also the real reason why he stopped in front of this porcelain stall.

Of course, this pair of European-style vases is not bad, it is also a pair of antique vases, but it is far from reaching the point where Ye Tian's heart is moved and he makes a move!

After pretending to enjoy it intently, or after a performance, Ye Tian raised his head, looked at the stall owner with a smile and said:

"Andy, how much do these European vases cost? If the price is right, I'm interested in taking them."

Hearing this, Andy was stunned for a moment, and then glanced at the vase in Ye Tian's hand again, his eyes were both surprised and puzzled, very complicated!

After a pause, he gave an answer.

"Steven, this pair of European vases costs 120,000 pounds, if you can accept the price, then you can take this pair of vases with you!"

"Wow, this is better to kill the wrong than let go!"

Ye Tian complained secretly, almost laughing.

He had expected this situation and was not surprised at all!

Now no matter where he goes to the antique market, all antique dealers will be highly vigilant, lest he pick up the leaks, or even go crazy to loot, and become another unlucky guy and another joke in the antique market!

Therefore, when facing him, many antique dealers will ask for a sky-high price, without considering the actual value of the subject matter at all, and some guys are not even willing to do his business, and would rather not make money than prevent being pitted!

"Wow! 120,000 pounds, that's a very exaggerated price! If I'm not mistaken, it's a pair of vases from the Royal Vasaceth Porcelain Company.

The porcelain of the Royal Vassaith is good, but I really don't see where the vases are worth 120,000 pounds, and is there another story to tell?

Andy, can you explain it to me, if this pair of vases was used by Queen Victoria, not 120,000, that's 1.2 million pounds, I'll accept that!"

Ye Tian pretended to be surprised and said with a smile in his eyes.

Hearing this, Andy was directly stupid, looked at Ye Tian dumbfounded, and his face quickly turned red! 2k reading web
