Chapter 1060: Qianlong's Imperial Seal and Inheritance
In a meeting with Mr. Greenspan, the chairman of the Federal Reserve, the two talked for a long time until late at night. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Han Xuan is reluctant to play the role of a US think tank, and although he can gain more benefits by ensuring the US hegemony in the world, it is at the expense of other countries' development opportunities.
Tonight he just said it briefly, and even deliberately said something wrong, he didn't want to affect the future historical trend because of himself, because he would lose more, and it would only cheapen other forces in the United States in vain.
After seeing off Mr. Greenspan, Secretary Dawson came with two large suitcases made of metal.
Placing them on a table, he said, "These are Mr. Edward Rothschild, let me give you when I am leaving." ”
"What's in there?" Han Xuan asked him.
"I don't know.
It is said that his family got it from Huaxia more than a hundred years ago, I haven't seen it yet, do you need me to help you open it?"
"Well, turn it on......"
With two soft clicks, Secretary Dawson lifted the lid of a metal box.
There was a red blanket inside, and in the center, there was a blood-red seal.
Han Xuan's expression was shocked when he saw this thing, he had seen many Huaxia seals, but this special color was the first time he had seen it.
The waiters had gloves, and he shouted loudly and asked the restaurant manager to bring him a pair of gloves, and the other party quickly delivered them.
After wearing it, Han Xuan picked up this seal and found that it must have come from the ancient palace.
The Royal Seal will be surrounded by bas-relief dragon patterns, and the upper part of the seal is carved with the vivid shape of nine dragons soaring among the auspicious clouds, chasing the orb.
In traditional culture, nine represents the most yang energy, while the dragon means the royal supreme, which is generally owned by the emperor.
Turn it over and look at the bottom, which is engraved with the words "Treasure of Qianlong's Imperial Pen".
If the people of the Rothschild family were not stupid enough to use a fake antique to please Han Xuan, then this seal must be Qianlong's imperial seal.
Following the little boss to the north and south, Secretary Dawson had seen a lot of similar things, and asked him at this moment, "Is this seal worth anything?"
"It's okay.
I don't estimate it to be more than $100,000, but it's hard to get.
The Qianlong Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was very fond of calligraphy and painting, and this seal was used to seal after he painted or wrote calligraphy.
I remember that during the lifetime of Emperor Qianlong, a total of more than 1,800 seals were made, more than 700 were lost, and more than 1,000 were collected in the Palace Museum, and very few were circulated in the market.
It's even rarer to see a stamp made of a special material like this, so thank you, Mr. Edward, for me......"
Han Xuan's large-scale acquisition of Chinese antiques was specially reported by the "San Francisco Chronicle", and everyone knew that he liked Chinese cultural relics, and it was not unexpected that Edward sent this thing.
Over the years, some people speculated that Han Xuan bought them for investment, that is to say, there is room for appreciation in the value of Chinese antiques, which in turn triggered a boom in the collection of Chinese antiques at home and abroad, and in just two or three years, the auction price has increased by almost 50%.
Although there are few seals circulating in Qianlong, it is not impossible to find them, and there are too many surviving seals, and the value is not high.
Han Xuan looked at it for a while, and couldn't help but open his mouth to doze off, it was almost 11 o'clock in the evening, and he wanted to go back to the hotel early to sleep.
Placing the stamp back in the box, he took two steps to the side and reached for another box.
It was much heavier and larger than the one before, and as the lid was lifted, a metallic sheen of bronze appeared before their eyes.
When he saw the whole picture of the thing in the box, Han Xuan couldn't help but be overjoyed, and muttered: "It turns out that you are in the hands of the Rothschilds, no wonder I can't find ......"
There is a beast head made by the Italian Lang Shining in the box!
Over the years, the seven pieces of cows, monkeys, horses, rats, pigs, tigers, and rabbits have fallen into the hands of Han Xuan one after another, while the whereabouts of snakes, chickens, dogs, and sheep are unknown.
I received news that the dragon head was on Treasure Island, but I didn't know who was collecting it.
When Han Xuan got seven pieces, he even offered a reward of three million US dollars, hoping to buy the dragon head from the collector on the treasure island.
This is not only to inflate the value of those items in their hands in disguise, but also to attract collectors who own snakes, chickens, dogs, and sheep to sell those items to themselves.
But it doesn't seem to work very well.
Not only did the owner of the dragon head not contact Han Xuan, but the four pieces of the collection did not appear.
He even thought that those things had disappeared into the long river of history, and they would never be able to gather twelve pieces.
Seeing the sheep's head in the box at this moment, Han Xuan had a little hope again, stroked the sheep's head with his hand, and said with a smile: "Do they only have this one there?
"Probably not.
Mr. Edward had just told me that it had been in his mother's family's collection for more than 100 years in the basement.
It wasn't until recently that you started buying these things that it was remembered by the Rothschild butlers, and if there were others, I don't think they would hide them and not give you ......"
"Oh.
Increase the bounty on the island to $5 million, and set another time.
The news was that if no one contacted me within a year, I wouldn't want to, and I wanted to see if the collector was impressed.
The remaining three pieces will also be purchased at this price, and my museum in Shanghai is almost finished, right?"
"Well, last time, the person in charge of the Huaxia branch of Snow Mountain Real Estate told me that the renovation work of the museum has been completed for more than half and it will open by the end of this year. ”
"That's good, remember to remind me to go over and participate when the time comes.
Put these things away, and send the sculptures to my grandfather, and ask him to have someone identify them, and then put them in my museum with a few other pieces......"
Tipping $200 for each employee in the restaurant to thank them for taking care of them tonight, after getting in the car, leaving the Meet restaurant and heading to the Four Seasons Hotel.
Halfway through, Han Xuan suddenly received a call from Executive Officer Anthony, put his phone to his ear, and asked him, "It's so late, what's the matter?"
You should get off work, go home early and don't be too late, so that your wife won't have to divorce you again......"
"Don't make fun of me.
You know my wife is just joking with you, and she respects my work. ”
Executive Anthony's voice came over the phone, and he continued: "A lawyer came to our firm to look for you just now.
He couldn't reach you, so he came to me. ”
"Lawyer?
Is there another problem with the company's products?"
The first thing that came to Han Xuan's mind was Viagra, which was the most prone to accidents.
At the beginning of this year, there was a guy who looked for death by himself, ate three tablets at once, and finally the congestion was too severe, the cavernous body was injured, and he permanently lost the ability to pop, and the doctor said that the thing could only pee in the future.
He didn't use it according to the instructions, and he still had the face to sue Snow Mountain Pharmaceutical Company, and after Snow Mountain Pharmaceutical Company won the lawsuit and cleared up its responsibility, Han Xuan gave the other party a donation of 300,000 US dollars in the spirit of humanitarianism......
"No, no, no, it's not what you think, this lawyer is here to get you to receive the will.
To be precise, let ...... Chubby Ding receives ......
I thought it was weird, too, but the lawyer did tell me that you might have to make a trip to Philadelphia ......" (to be continued.) )
