Chapter 392: How to Wash Stolen Goods (Part II)
The countries mentioned above are all countries that belong to the European region, and most of the stolen goods in circulation belong to cultural relics and antiques from European history!
As for the holy land of thieves and whitewashing in Asia, it deserves to be in Little Japan.
If the laws of European countries on the laundering of stolen goods are still a little more secretive (the legal provisions only mention artworks, do not mention sensitive terms such as "theft" or "stolen goods", and set some special thresholds to prevent the loss of domestic artworks), then the laws of Japan on the laundering of stolen goods are extremely straightforward and arrogant compared with these European countries!
In Japan, the law on the laundering of stolen goods is written like this - it is clearly stated: any cultural relics and antiques lost in any part of the world, as long as two years have passed, can be auctioned in the country of Japan! In addition, no matter if it is a cultural relic or antique from any country, even if the auction item originally belonged to Japan, as long as it is stolen two years later, it can be taken out of Japan Customs through the auction in a bright way!
As soon as this law was enacted, Japan immediately surpassed Italy and the United Kingdom, and quickly became a holy place for the collection and sale of stolen art goods from all over the world!

After the "popularization of knowledge" about the art market by the old man at home, Pei Pei was secretly very happy!
- Because of the legal provisions on the laundering of stolen goods issued by these countries, Pei Pei no longer has to hide these stolen goods in the space for a hundred years before taking them out to the world!
Therefore. She happily made a decision - in the future, as long as all the artworks obtained from European and American countries through the "ghost treasure theft case" were hidden in the space for two years, they would be brought to Japan in batches, and then placed in her private museum for public display after whitewashing.
is even more because of Japan's "stolen goods laundering" law, before Pei Pei set off from New York, she also made a special Internet inquiry -
Major auction houses around the world, including Japan, hold large-scale auctions every quarter of the year.
Arrange a trade fair in the spring, according to the jargon. It's called "Spring Auction"; Auctions scheduled for the fall season. The jargon is called "autumn auction"; In the same way, the auctions scheduled for winter are "winter auctions"!
Only the auctions held in the summer, in the jargon, are not called "summer auctions" but "warm auctions"!
The warm auctions of the major auction houses in Japan happen to be concentrated in June, when the wind and sun are beautiful.
Thereupon. Pei Pei had planned before her trip to Hong Kong and waited for the end of her trip to Hong Kong. She's going to Japan again. Participate in Japan's warm auction market this time.
Therefore, before leaving, Pei Pei specially obtained a warm auction invitation from a well-known auction house in Japan through Miss Monica of the Centurion Black Gold Card. The date of the warm shoot on the invitation is exactly three days later.
The purpose of this trip to Japan is to buy some stolen art from various countries from the Japanese auction house market in a bright way, and use it to fill the variety of exhibitions in his private museum!
Second, it is to explore the way by and understand the rules and conditions of the Japanese art stolen goods market.
Finally, she would like to visit the major museums in Japan.
As long as she thinks of the Chinese artworks looted from China during the Japanese invasion of China, Pei Pei can't help but want to "handily" enrich the collection of her private museum!
Isn't there a lot of media claiming that Satan loves cultural relics and artworks from ancient China, so it's just right, when the warm shooting in Japan is over, let the wind of the "ghost treasure theft case" blow to Japan, and let the Japanese news media follow the excitement!
As for all the cultural relics and antiques that have been "handily" taken from Japan through the "ghost treasure theft case", how should they be whitewashed?
Hehehe, even if Japan's law allows stolen goods from their own country to be taken out of Japan's customs through auctions, Pei Pei is not so stupid that she can really take those treasures out of customs without any trouble at all.
So, Pei Pei simply moved her brain to Italy!
The treasures obtained from Europe and the United States through the "Ghost Treasure Theft Case" can be shipped to Japan for whitewashing, and the treasures obtained from Japan through the "Ghost Treasure Theft Case" can all be shipped to Italy for whitewashing! Hahaha
With these two law-protected whitewashing channels in Europe and Asia, Pei Pei can confidently and boldly continue her "ghost treasure theft plan" in the future.
————————————————————
The next day, Pei Pei handed over the exhibition plan of the museum that had been demarcated to her assistant Fu Ya, and asked the other party to order the display cabinet to decorate all the exhibition halls according to this plan.
In addition, she also asked Fu Ya how much time it would take to set up the display cabinets in these exhibition halls.
Fu Ya told the boss that the answer is that the professional anti-theft display cabinet must be ordered from those countries in Europe and the United States, and the whole time from the order to the shipment to Hong Kong and then to the completion of the decoration will take about a week.
After Pei Pei got the answer from Fu Ya, she calculated her itinerary in her heart, and the warm shooting in Japan was the day after tomorrow, so she would definitely fly to Japan tomorrow.
Japan is not a huge country, and it is enough to spend a week visiting various museums in such a small country.
After finishing the "serious business" from Japan, at this point in time, the museum in Hong Kong should have already arranged all the exhibition halls, just waiting for all the exhibits to enter the museum!
Of course, all the exhibits that are ready to be exhibited can't be put in the space and brought into Hong Kong for the sake of saving trouble!
Therefore, regarding the formalities for entering the customs, Pei Pei still turned to the old man at home for help.
Although Mr. Li immigrated to the United States for many years, his relationship network in Hong Kong is still very good!
In addition, Peipei's private museum has already obtained a business license.
Moreover, all the cultural relics and antiques currently on display belong to personal private collections that have nothing to do with it. (Even if it is a national jade seal, as long as it does not enter Chinese mainland and is only exhibited in Hong Kong, it is characterized by the Hong Kong law of one country, two systems, and this priceless treasure is still a personal private product!)
