Albert naturally values the artwork in Murong Xianxian's hands, and for Murong Xian, why not?

The reason why Dinghaizhu is so powerful is that twenty-four of them are gathered together, and it is also a truly powerful magic weapon, and it can even be on the same level as the pure glass bottle, yin-yang mirror, and the heaven-turning seal, and the power of a single magic weapon is really limited. However, she now has six Dinghai Pearls in her hands, and if she can successfully trade the seven Buddha statues in Albert's hands, then she will have thirteen Dinghai Pearls in her hands. Although the power is not as good as a full set of Dinghai Pearls, this magic weapon is a magic weapon that the more you collect, the more powerful it becomes, and the thirteen are already more than one-half, and there will not be many cultivators who can take the blow of this Dinghai Pearl.

But these things are only considered their own when they are in their own pockets, but she has to be more subtle than Albert・・・・・・ if she expresses Xiàn too urgently, I'm afraid it will be Albert who wields the knife, and the British vampire culture must not be thought of as referring to the creature of vampires, but referring to the history of the British Empire's enslavement of various colonies for thousands of years, to put it bluntly, it is colonial culture, and under the gentleman's coat on their surface, there is a greed like a vampire.

"Please wait. ”

Albert turned around and entered a room, and when he came out, he had a bunch of keys in his hand, and raised his hand towards Murong Xian: "Please follow me." ”

The two came to another room, which was a bit like a study, the kind of big study owner, with a lot of books and bookshelves, a large desk, and many oil paintings with a long atmosphere hanging on the wall, including portraits and landscape sketches, all of which were very ancient, although most of them were not signed, but they were all valuable ancient understandings.

Albert pressed somewhere in front of the wall, and then there was a low vibration, and several of the floor tiles slowly moved away, revealing a staircase leading to the ground, apparently with lights underneath.

After Albert waited for the floor tiles to be completely still, he led the way down the stairs in front, and Murong Xianxian hurriedly followed. The stairs are about seventy or eighty steps and slightly steeper. There are small lights installed on the wall at intervals, so it never feels dark.

Walking down the stairs, the two of them passed through a not very long corridor before coming to a swarthy gate that was more than three meters high. This gate is supposed to be a real metal gate, and it has been treated in some way, and it has a dark glow, and there are many keys on it... She counted them simply, and there were nine locks, and this one was a little stronger.

The set of keys in Albert's hand began to work, and as one lock after another opened, the door was gently pushed open, and a strange aura came out of it・・・・・・ this breath was very strange, it was not a poisonous gas, but a very dry feeling, Murong Xianxian guessed that this was this kind of environment deliberately created to protect the things inside.

"Please come in. ”

Albert is a hospitable host: "This is my collection showroom, and since my great-grandfather, he has been collecting works of art from all over the world, the most from China, and now they are all in front of you. ”

Murong Xianxian only felt funny at his words, and there was also a hint of sadness... Funnily enough, Albert's great-grandfather collected these works of art not by waving a checkbook, but by waving a saber and rifle to complete the collection program; Sadly, as a Chinese, you can only listen to it flaunt China's artistic treasures in front of foreigners. However, she wouldn't steal these things, she really didn't have to, otherwise she would have to do more.

However, after actually entering this room, Murong Xianxian's first reaction was... This is not a collection room, but an underground museum.

Yes, although there is only one floor here, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a museum. She stood on this end and looked over, but she couldn't see the other end... Although there is also some partition in between. The room is dry, with a soft red carpet on the floor, which is not only for the comfort of stepping on, but also for the protection of the collection, the requirements of moisture insulation and moisture absorption, and there are many dryers in this house.

These things were only skipped in a flash of her eyes, and what really caught her eye was the collections・・・・・・ in the closest place, there were many weapons and armor, most of which were medieval knightly equipment, and even a few stone catapults, although they were very old, but they were all well preserved, which showed that the owner had put his mind into it.

In the past, there were more things and varieties.

There are countless oil paintings, sculptures, ・・・・・・, but what makes Murong Xianxian pay the most attention are those artworks from China, of which ceramics account for a large part.

At the same time as he saw those Chinese artworks, Murong Xianxian immediately exuded his divine sense...... Although the collection room was big enough, and the things were big enough, under the scrutiny of her sense, it was only a moment, and she quickly reached her goal early.

The seven wooden Buddha statues are neatly placed in the corner, and judging from the position, they are really not ordinary and not taken seriously.

Albert saw her standing there staring at the shelves where Chinese porcelain was placed in a daze, and said beside her: "Miss Murong, these porcelains in front of you are very important and exquisite in my collection, I believe you will find a suitable work of art." ”

A smile appeared on his face, Albert obviously misunderstood the moment when Murong Xianxian was in a daze just now, despite his proud capital, but Murong Xianxian was really not very interested in these so-called works of art, but she also praised it enthusiastically・・・・・・ to be honest, Albert's collection, both in quantity and quality, and his care for these collections, are worthy of praise, if the staff of a certain domestic brand museum also has his spirit, I am afraid it will not leave so many regrets to domestic collectors。

It seems that there is a lot of hope that this deal will be done...... Albert thought.

Albert's collection has put a lot of effort into classification, and walking among the rows of fine porcelain, Murong Xianxian feels that he has walked not some collections, but a long river of history. Behind these collections is the evolution of an ancient civilization. When he was practicing with his master, Zhu Guoen once said that the history of the development of Chinese porcelain is the history of the development of the entire Chinese civilization, and the advent of a fine porcelain has a complex process. Under different historical, cultural, customary, natural environment and other conditions, the development of porcelain is also different.

As Murong Xianxian walked, she radiated her divine sense to the surroundings again, and she didn't know why she had a hunch - there should be some good things in this British's collection.

The porcelain in front has passed, the shelves where the Buddha statues are placed have also passed, and then the front is a jade carving, and there are quite a few jade ornaments full of spiritual energy in it, but ・・・・・・ what is that?

Murong Xianxian only felt a throbbing of her divine sense, she walked over and saw that the item turned out to be a black pipa...... To be precise, this should be a kind of pipa carved from black jade, but there are only four strings on it, well, one of the strings is still broken・・・・・・ oh, it's not broken, it's empty, no strings.

"This jade pipa was also brought back from China...... Uh, Miss Murong is sorry, that kind of behavior is disgraceful, but this pipa is just a broken work of art, and the workmanship is also ordinary. ”

Albert did not shy away from the origin of the lute, and the ordinary workmanship was not modest, because on the surface of the lute there was nothing to praise except for its smoothness.

But it is indeed not a work of art, but a magic weapon, although missing, but still makes people palpitate.

"Do you like this lute?" said Albert, with some inquiry in his eyes.

Murong Xianxian's expression seemed to be a little nostalgic: "I learned pipa for a while when I was in middle school, but my family was poor at that time, and I had no choice but to sell the pipa. ”

God knows!

She likes to sing, but she plays a musical instrument...... I played the guitar once and plucked the strings. However, presumably Albert will not have this information either, so he might as well play a sad card.

"I'm sorry. ”

Albert showed a very understanding look in his eyes, which made Murong Xianxian a little embarrassed: "This pipa will be given to Miss Murong as my personal gift in a while, and I hope that Miss Murong will not refuse." ”

"Mr. Albert is so gracious that I am willing to give another Picasso sketch in exchange. ”

The other party is so good, Murong Xianxian is not stingy, he throws a peach and repays him, I believe that in this way, there should be no problem with the seven Buddha statues, after all, in terms of character, this Albert is not bad.

The next time is to choose, according to Lin Songxian's opinion, Murong Xianxian selected eight pieces of porcelain in one go, five of which are porcelain belonging to the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty, and then a set of Ming Dynasty Chenghua Doucai tea sets, two Yuan blue and white character porcelain jars・・・・・・ It can be seen that for these eight pieces of porcelain, Albert is indeed quite painful, but these porcelains are not the only ones in his collection, and what is more important to him is the Western artworks in Murong Xianxian's hands.

After finalizing those works of art, Murong Xianxian casually looked at the collections that were placed in the corner・・・・・・ for Albert, the value of these collections may not be as good as the jade pipa, so he generously let Murong Xianxian choose a batch independently.

In his original words, he regretted what happened a hundred years ago, but the collection in this collection room belonged to the entire family, not to him alone, so he could only ask Murong Xianxian to choose a group as his personal apology for that period of history within the scope of his authority・・・・・・ and Murong Xianxian could also feel his sincerity, so he agreed to it.

Murong Xianxian picked a total of seventy-four works of art, including the seven Buddha statues, although these artworks are not as valuable as the eight pieces of porcelain, they are also genuine antiques, and if they are traded separately, they are also very valuable.

The next day, under the supervision of a notary public and an appraiser, they signed the legal document, and the transaction was officially concluded... Only the items in their hands are their own, and both of them are relieved.

"Mr. Albert, welcome to China. ”

Standing at the entrance, Murong Xianxian smiled and said goodbye to Albert, who came to see him off. RS
