**************

Jin Muchen's heart was simply refreshed, it was like drinking fairy water, and his brain was also dizzy, this Nima, for 300,000 US dollars, picked up a Swedish national treasure!

Wait, should this thing be considered a Swedish national treasure, or should it be a national treasure of the calculation country?

Whatever? Anyway, now that it's your own, isn't it still short of money to buy a house in Manhattan? With this, do you still need to be afraid of running out of money?

It cost a total of 300,000 US dollars to buy this pair of celestial globes and globe treasures before, and now if he changes hands and sends them to auction, Jin Muchen can at least fetch a price of 3 million according to the most conservative estimates.

Before this Anders. Ackermann's 50-centimeter-diameter globe was originally from the Royal Swedish Collection, and it fetched a whopping $3 million.

Now this pair of treasures in my hands, don't look at the size is smaller than that one, but it is a pair, and the most important thing is that it is also inherited, which also records a romantic love between Gustav III and a French aristocratic girl.

With such an allusion, the price of this pair of treasures must not be low, and the most conservative estimate can be on par with the globe with a diameter of 50 centimeters.

If you run into a good one, it will be a matter of minutes to sell for five million dollars!

As soon as he thought of this, Jin Muchen felt that his trip to the West Coast was really not in vain.

The relationship with Wang Xueming is solid, it doesn't count, just the treasures picked up from San Francisco and Los Angeles are worth the ticket price, and it is worth hundreds or thousands of times the ticket price.

Jin Muchen carefully reinstalled the pair of treasures, and then threw them into the purple jade space, which really saved him a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, such a pair of treasures worth millions, he would be reluctant to let Federal Airlines check it in, and the risk of losing it would be not small, and the most important thing is that those porters will not give you light.

The domestic express delivery industry has a habit of violent sorting, and in the United States, it is not good to go there, as long as it is outside the camera, the workers do not give you the habit of handling it gently.

Littering is trivial, and theft of domestic thieves happens from time to time.

If there is no space for Ziyu, Jin Muchen can only choose to rent a car, and then cross the entire North American continent from Los Angeles back to New York.

He's not a fan of road trips, and while the road is definitely scenic, living on the highway for days on end isn't a life he wants to enjoy.

Of course, rich people have to sit in the first class cabin of the most comfortable plane, hehe, now it's just a little rich, and after the master finds some treasures, the master will directly buy a private jet to have a good time.

This night, Jin Muchen didn't know how he lived, and originally wanted to go out to the night club to have a good time, but after thinking about it, he finally stayed in the hotel to eat and drink.

The next morning, I got on the plane and headed straight for New York.

It was noon when I came out of JFK Airport, but as soon as I got off the plane, I felt like I had arrived in another world.

Half-sleeved shorts are already rumored in Los Angeles, but in New York, people haven't shed their winter clothes yet.

Hailed a taxi and went straight to the antique shop in Flushing.

"Coming back so soon? What do you think? How did things go smoothly? ”

After Uncle Fang saw Jin Muchen, he asked him with a smile, and Jin Muchen also nodded with a smile.

"It's pretty smooth, otherwise how could I come back so soon?"

"By the way, did you go to the San Francisco market I told you about?"

Uncle Fang didn't care about the matter between him and Wang Xueming, he had been engaged in antiques all his life, and of course he was most concerned about antiques.

The antique market in San Francisco used to be visited by Fang Bo when he was young, at least three or five times a year, but now that he is older, he hasn't been there for a few years.

"I went, and I got a nice thing back."

Jin Muchen said and smiled, and took out the Qianlong jade pen holder from the suitcase next to him that was found in the store in San Francisco Yufang.

When Uncle Fang saw this jade pen holder, he was stunned for a moment, then took it with a suspicious face, and carefully looked up and down a few times.

"This thing is kind of weird! There is Qianlong's imperial title, and the workmanship is also good, but it is not quite like the traditional pen holder style! In the past, Qianlong's jade pen holders, I also handled a few, but they are generally smaller, and they are also made of mutton fat white jade, and the most unfortunate ones are also made of Qinghai materials. And the style of the carving on it is the style of the traditional Jiangnan landscape of those Suzhou masters, why does your tube look so strange? The material is not right, and the style of the engraving is not right. ”

Jin Muchen laughed, and then pointed to the hidden place where he found the relief.

"The secret is here......"

Then he told Uncle Fang the allusion he had deduced about the relationship between Princess Gu Lun and Princess Jing and her husband, and Uncle Fang's eyes lit up, and then it suddenly became clear.

"That's right, it should be like this, no wonder it's Xiuyan jade! No wonder Qianlong liked this pen holder so much, and left a royal inscription on it! That's right! Before I said, how did I feel so strange, the inscription under the pen holder looks right, it should be Qianlong's own imperial inscription, but his obsession with jade Cheng dù, how could he like such a pen holder made of low-quality jade? It turned out to be a gift from his son-in-law to celebrate his birthday, so that's in the past! ”

Fang Bo held this pen holder, couldn't put it down, and finally walked directly into the basement with it, and then went to study it.

Jin Muchen and Uncle Fang have lived together for so long, of course they know his old man's habits, if he likes something, the old man will definitely play for a month, and then take pictures and archive them.

But all the treasures he has handled, and his heart, he usually files them like this, and now in the safe in his basement, there are three thick albums, almost all of which are the treasures he has handled over the past few decades.

I went upstairs to wash up, and just thought of asking Fang Bo to go out to eat downstairs, I received a call from Helen.

"Where have you been these days? I went to Uncle Fang's antique shop, why didn't I find you? ”

"You've been to me?"

"Yes! I went there once two days ago, but Uncle Fang said you went out. ”

"Oh! I have something to do these days, I went to Los Angeles, by the way, you came to me, what is the matter? ”

"It's okay, can't I go to you?"

Helen still looked very naughty on the other end of the phone, and Jin Muchen was also a little helpless, he really didn't know what kind of relationship should be defined between him and Helen.

"Uh...... Well, Helen, what the hell is going on! ”

Helen on the other end of the phone seemed to be infected by Jin Muchen's tone, and her voice suddenly became low.

"Humph! Well, actually, that's the house thing, I got in touch with Mr. Barton, and he agreed to meet with you, Friday afternoon, at two o'clock, at the Blue Mountain Coffee Shop on 7th Street in Manhattan. ”

"Okay, I'll be on time for the appointment."

"Alright, that's all."

Helen hung up the phone with some anger, and Jin Muchen could only scratch his head when he looked at the phone.

"A girl has been looking for me in the past two days?"

Jin Muchen came downstairs, just as Uncle Fang came up from downstairs, hearing him ask like this, Uncle Fang smiled very strangely.

"Yes! Or a beauty? Hey, you kid...... I'm going to be in trouble this time......"

Uncle Fang's words were meaningful, and Jin Muchen rolled his eyes.

"Uncle Fang, don't talk nonsense."

"Humph! I'm going to talk nonsense? That girl, she looks so beautiful, Mu Chen really doesn't know if you are going to take the peach blossom luck or the peach blossom robbery! Candace is not bad, but you have to be careful with these two girls, if you are not careful, you can only be hurt in the end! ”

"Okay, okay, Uncle Fang, the relationship between me and Helen is not what you think!"

"That's what I thought? What are you doing in such a hurry to justify? ”

Uncle Fang's grinning appearance made Jin Muchen feel once again that this old man was so obscene? No wonder a lifetime of singles.

"Okay, let's not talk about that, go out to dinner."

"Okay, this time you kid has a treat."

"No problem, please have a big meal."

Jin Muchen agreed with a smile and said, after all, he is also a multimillionaire now, and it is not a problem to have a big meal.

"By the way, Mu Chen, it's not just that girl who came to look for you these days, but also the Christie's guy who came last time."

"What? That Andre last time? ”

"Yes, that's the guy who brought a couple of Christie's experts, and said with your permission, so I asked them to go upstairs and look at the table."

Fang Bo picked up his coat and put it on, and said to Jin Muchen, Jin Muchen nodded, he did tell Andre before that he could bring an expert to see, but he didn't expect this guy to drag on for so long.

"Oh? What did they say after looking at that table? ”

"The specifics are still inconclusive, they look at it very carefully, especially those experts, they even turned the table upside down, but they want to remove the rubber pads under the four corners of the table and inspect it carefully. But I didn't agree, after all, you have to make a decision on your things, and if they break it, I'll be in trouble. ”

Fang Bo and Jin Muchen laughed, and Jin Muchen couldn't help but sigh secretly, worthy of being an old Jianghu.

Fang Bo used to deal with Christie's and Sotheby's people a lot, so he knew that they had a set of methods, and those guys had a set of identification, but they were also masters when they were cheating.

Antique appraisal is a very troublesome thing, sometimes it is often necessary to disassemble and assemble, and it is common to damage antiques in the process, and the so-called experts of these two companies often do such stupid things. R1152
