Early the next morning, Rogov first made a phone call to François, and then went straight to the storeroom where they had been the last time with Monet's "Sunset". On www.biquge.info side of the Pen "Fun" Pavilion, François had already hired two appraisers and were waiting to authenticate the "Sunset" in their hands.

As soon as he saw Li Yi, François was obviously much more enthusiastic than last time, but after listening to Li Yi's introduction, this guy's enthusiasm was transferred to Tan Moxuan. Because Li Yi told him that the owner of the "Sunset" was Tan Moxuan, and this time, he was just an appraiser who came to help.

Compared with Li Yi's qualifications as appraisers, the two invited by François are much more senior, but even so, it is not easy to determine whether this "Sunset" is the real Cézanne.

"Monsieur François, if you don't, you will first examine it here, and I will go and see your collections?"

Tan Moxuan saw that the two appraisers were cautiously observing, sampling, and comparing each busy, so he proposed that they be busy with their own.

"No problem, no problem, please come here."

François never thought that an acupuncture bronze figure could lead to a famous work of Cézanne, and he had already been happy that all the teeth and flowers had come out, and he couldn't wait to complete the appraisal and close the deal immediately, how could he refuse Tan Moxuan's legitimate request?

He knew very well in his heart, not to mention that he had put a price tag of 100 million US dollars on the acupuncture bronze figure, even if it was a price tag of 50 million, it would be difficult to sell it. Because the circulation of unpopular cultural relics in China is really poor!

Although in recent years, those rich people from China have repeatedly thrown sky-high prices at auctions, but they seem to have no love for their country's cultural relics, and every time they are staring at those well-known oil paintings, this time they finally encountered two wronged leaders, how can they be easily offended?

François personally led Li Yi and the others to the treasure room located underground, leaving a man to monitor and serve on the side, while he couldn't wait to return to the surface and carefully watch the two experts on the side.

François's collection of Chinese cultural relics occupies a total of two rooms, the total number is about 1,500 pieces, and Li Yi only had time to see a small part of them last time, and this time he came to make up the rest.

Unlike in the past, his purpose this time is very clear, that is, to demand systematization. In the past, whether he picked up leaks, exchanged them, or purchased them, the more valuable and rare the cultural relics, the better, but now that he is going to build a museum, his goal has changed, and he wants to complete the series as much as possible.

Take porcelain as an example, the most popular porcelain in all dynasties is those famous porcelains, but is there only those famous porcelains produced in that dynasty? This is obviously impossible.

Taking the Kangxi Dynasty as an example, in addition to the more precious Langyao red and cowpea red, there are more than a dozen kinds of color glaze, such as Ji red, sky blue glaze, sprinkle blue, Ji blue, green glaze, yellow glaze, white glaze, green glaze, purple gold glaze, bronze glaze, etc.

In the underglaze colored porcelain, in addition to the more precious blue and white, glaze red, there are also blue and white glaze red, glaze three colors, and bean green ground blue and white, bean green ground glaze red, sprinkle blue ground glaze red, green land blue and white and other miscellaneous underglaze porcelain.

In addition, there are glaze colored porcelain such as five-color, bucket color, plain three-color, enamel color, pastel, etc., and there are no less than thirty or forty kinds of them.

And each of these kinds of porcelain, almost all have plates, bowls, plates, bottles, jars, zun and other common shapes, and each shape, almost all have dragon patterns, animal patterns, plant patterns, human patterns and other common decorative classifications.

In other words, even if it is only a representative porcelain with different age names, the number of them is only hundreds or thousands of pieces, which is simply an astronomical number if extended to the entire Chinese dynasties.

In Li Yi's understanding, the reason why museums can be called Bo is to work hard in these aspects.

Of course, he did not expect that he would one day be able to collect all kinds of porcelain produced under the name of even one emperor, but he believed that since a museum was to be built, it should at least work in this direction. If the ornament collection is not complete, then the collector type, if the instrument type is not collected, then the collection category, and the collection of an emperor is not complete, then try to use other emperors of this dynasty to make up for it.

So when he came out this time, he shifted the focus of attention to this direction, but in this way, those things that he didn't look down on in the past have become important.

Tan Moxuan didn't know Li Yi's ambitions, he saw that Li Yi was just walking around the room for a while, and dozens of cultural relics of various categories, large and small, couldn't help but be startled, what does this mean? Originally, it was already a very difficult task to exchange a piece of "Sunset" for an acupuncture bronze man, a tiger smash, and a pure magic spear, but now with these additions, it is almost an impossible task!

"It's okay, you can change these if you can, buy them if you can't, anyway, just find a way to help me get them all back!"

Tan Moxuan is not a fool, on the contrary, through the exchanges in the past few days, although Li Yi has not clarified his idea of building the museum, he has already made a general judgment.

He circled around these things selected by Li Yi twice, and combined with the memories of Li Yi's collection in his mind and his understanding of the museum, he immediately understood what Li Yi meant, and couldn't help asking:

"Are you seeking perfection?"

"Well, when I used to collect by myself, I only focused on those treasures, but now I can't think like that when I am a museum, I can collect as much as I can. And these things are not expensive, these dozens of pieces together are probably not as valuable as a pure magic gun, but they can support a museum, why not? ”

"Okay, then we'll follow this line of thought in the future! It is also desirable to think about it, if the porcelain hall can be divided into the Qing Dynasty Hall, the Ming Dynasty Hall, and the Yuan Dynasty Hall, and the Qing Dynasty Hall under the Kangxi, Yongzheng, and Qianlong Emperors can each be independently exhibited, and then expanded to calligraphy and painting, jewelry, jade, miscellaneous...... Tsk, it's just unreasonable that such a museum is not popular! ”

"Hehe, these can only be thought about, even the Palace Museum is difficult to do...... But it's a direction to work on, and I want to see if it's possible to collect even the tiniest branch in my lifetime......"

"It must be possible, there are tens of millions of cultural relics lost overseas, what kind of none? In the past, others didn't take it out because we didn't have anything they were interested in, and when our museum was built, you only needed to open a Western hall, and then put all these things out of your hands, I guess someone else would come to beg us to exchange it in the future, haha, that time was the real uncle! ”

Li Yi smiled and didn't speak, but Tan Moxuan's words did go to his heart. He is really going to build a Western hall, it doesn't need to be big, but the security measures must be higher than the highest level, when the time comes, put these things in his hands inside, don't dare to say anything else, there are "Mona Lisa" and "Wisdom Master Edict Edict" These two are in, France and Little Japan will definitely go crazy, at that time, it will really be his turn to be the uncle.

"Okay, I've seen it almost here, I'll go look at the other collections, you two will give you a rough estimate of the value of these things, and then think about how to talk about it later."

"Hey, no, isn't it right for you to value these things? We can't recognize it all! ”

Li Yi looked at Luo Guofu, who was pouting his ass and trying to identify these collections, raised his chin, and said softly:

"How can our estimate be counted? It is to see the weight of these things in the eyes of foreigners, so that they will not suffer when they talk about it later. Anyway, if you grasp it, the total price of these things doesn't exceed 5 million soft girl coins. ”

Tan Moxuan nodded, understood, just like Luo Guofu, who used so many treasures to exchange for a "Water Lily" and thought that he had earned it, they really couldn't replace others with their own eyes, especially that person was still a foreigner who would never understand the true essence of Chinese cultural relics.

François's warehouse is very large, in addition to two rooms of Chinese cultural relics, there are also three rooms full of Western cultural relics.

Of the three rooms, one is full of all kinds of oil paintings, the other is full of all kinds of gold and silverware, and the other is full of miscellaneous things, Li Yi estimates that the total number should be at least around 5,000 pieces, and I don't know how many generations this family has accumulated to get so many good things.

The first thing Li Yi looked at was a room full of oil paintings. In this room, there are not only oil paintings on canvas, but also oil paintings on wood, prints, watercolors, drawings and so on. If you only look at the newness of the works, they should all be modern or modern works, but as an oil painting, it is these modern works that have real artistic value and are likely to be traded, so they really can't be underestimated.

For the cultural relics of China, even if Li Yi does not rely on the spirit card, he can basically quickly identify the eight. Nine is not far from ten. But he can't change to these Western works, he can only keep opening the spirit card, and he can't even touch it one by one as quickly as he did in Panjiayuan when he just got the spirit card, he also has to control the speed and judge the value of these things according to the cool content of each work.

Because although the history of Western oil painting is far less than that of Chinese ink painting, their painters are also as vast as the sea, except for a few particularly well-known ones, he almost does not know anything about them, and he cannot judge their value without relying on cool air, and if he does not do well, he will miss those really good things.
