Ask for collections, ask for recommendations!

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

The deceased Sidney. Mr. Bentley was definitely a rich and headstrong collector.

Almost half of the area on the second floor has been transformed into his study, and almost all of his treasures are placed in this study.

It is a typical Western-style large study with two large floor-to-ceiling windows facing south, which open to the balcony with a view.

Between the two floor-to-ceiling windows is a load-bearing wall, but underneath the wall is a Western-style fireplace with an oil painting hanging from the fireplace.

The oil painting is a wooden sailboat struggling in a storm, the oil painting is vivid, but Jin Muchen doesn't know much about these, but at a glance, you can see the flickering yellow light of this oil painting, which shows that this is definitely a genuine antique.

In front of the fireplace is where he works, a set of high-quality teak made of boss table and sofa chairs, this set of study furniture, even if it is not an antique, but just looking at the workmanship and materials of this set of furniture, can be defined as a top handicraft, not to mention that this set of furniture is also glittering with oily pulp.

The condition is very well preserved, although I don't know much about it, but looking at the rococo carving style above, Jin Muchen can conclude that this set of study furniture is definitely hundreds of years old, and it can definitely be regarded as an antique.

On the table was a very old typewriter, still mechanical, and it looked like it was at least a hundred years old, and it was no surprise that it was also an antique.

What interests Jin Muchen the most is that there is a jade paperweight on the table, as well as the bamboo carved pen holder, a typical Chinese-style object, and the two treasures are still flashing yellow from time to time, these two must also be antiques.

In the middle of the study is a small living room, the sofa and coffee table in the living room are relatively average, but the carpet under the coffee table is definitely a high-quality Persian carpet, and the Chinese-style wooden root carved tea set on the coffee table must also be antique.

On the left-hand side of the study, there is a book wall on the shelf, and if you look closely, you can see all kinds of flashes of light.

This shows that these books should be decades or even hundreds of years old, and some of them may still be very precious and rare editions, which can also be regarded as antiques.

On the right-hand side of the wall, there is also a large fireplace, but on top of this fireplace is a specimen of a deer's head, the horns of which are divided into twelve forks, which can also be considered antique.

There is a small Bogu shelf on the fireplace, on the Bogu shelf, there are several old guns, just look at the shape of those shotguns, as well as the length and caliber of the barrel, you can conclude that this is absolutely a hundred years old guns, oily, in good condition, this is also an antique.

Next is the thing that interests Jin Muchen the most in the whole room, that is, the two Bogu shelves placed on both sides of the fireplace.

There are glass windows on the outside of the Bogu shelf, and through the glass windows, you can see the exquisite Chinese porcelain placed on the Bogu shelf inside.

Cups, bowls, plates, saucers, and a few plum bottles, all of which looked very exquisite, and when he swept over, the jewels flashing on these porcelains almost blinded his eyes.

When he saw this, Jin Muchen felt that his heart was about to jump out of his throat, and he felt as if he had walked into a treasure mountain, which had endless wealth of all kinds.

Other various Western-style miscellaneous antiques, Jin Muchen just glanced at them a few times, and then threw them aside, after all, although those were antiques, he didn't know much about these antiques, and he didn't know much about the market, so he didn't dare to look at them.

For fear that after falling in love with it, if you can't afford to bid, or the bid is too high, it is better to specialize in the two Chinese porcelain on the Bogu shelf.

He walked quickly to the front of the Bogu shelf to the left of the fireplace, and did not rush to take out the porcelain inside, but looked carefully through the glass.

The porcelain on this Bogu shelf is mainly based on plum vases and Cong-style vases, all of which are ornamental vessels, with bright colors and fine paintings, mostly pastel vases based on enamel color, blue color, red color and gold color.

Most of the painting themes on the bottles are mainly in Western style, and most of the themes are Western-style religious themes or love themes.

After just one glance, Jin Muchen concluded that these bottles were real, but most of them were export porcelain from the ancient Chinese dynasties, and most of them should be export porcelain from the middle of the Qing Dynasty or the end of the Qing Dynasty.

Because you can tell just by looking at the subject matter of the picture, export porcelain depicting religious themes is generally the most popular time is around the 18th century.

Moreover, these porcelain vases should have come from Europe, and they should have been used by European nobles before, because the Chinese porcelain sold to European commoners would not paint such a style of painting.

Although this kind of porcelain is also considered an antique, it is relatively large in existence now, and it is not very recognized in China, so the price is not very high in China, even in the West, the price is relatively average.

After only two glances, Jin Muchen lost interest in the porcelain on this side, but the porcelain on the other side, after a glance, he couldn't pull it out.

There are not many porcelains on this Bogu shelf, only a few small bowls and two porcelain plates, but although they are practical vessels, this is pure Chinese-style porcelain.

Although the style does not have the export porcelain on the other side, there are so many colorful eyes, it is blue and white porcelain, and the workmanship is simple and elegant, but compared with the export porcelain on the other side, this simple and elegant porcelain makes Jin Muchen feel more pleasing to the eye.

He carefully took out these dishes and looked at them carefully, they are all works of the Qing Dynasty, and the porcelain plates with the theme of butterflies and flowers should be the official kiln works of the middle of the Qing Dynasty, and they are in good condition.

The other four small bowls should be the best products of the same era in the folk kiln.

After a few careful glances, Jin Muchen came to a conclusion, during this time, he followed Uncle Fang to learn about Chinese antiques, but it was not learned in vain, and it played a role at this time.

These dishes, if they are taken down, should be sold very well in Fang Bo's shop, and there are many Chinese people who have come to Taobao in the United States these years.

Even if the price of each piece is a quarter lower than that in China, you can buy about 10,000 yuan or 20,000 yuan, and if you can get it at a low price, it will be more cost-effective.

Jin Muchen was holding the porcelain plate while observing and pondering, and at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded beside him.

"I'm sorry, sir, have you finished reading? If you're done, can you let me see it? ”

When I looked up, I found that there was a guy in a suit and leather shoes standing next to him, staring at the porcelain plate in his hand.

Jin Muchen smiled bitterly and put the porcelain plate in his hand into the cabinet, and then made a gesture of please.

"Are you Japanese?"

A voice sounded in Jin Muchen's ears, Jin Muchen turned his head and looked, it turned out to be an Asian who was about thirty years old and not tall, with a slightly bald head and a flattering smile on his face, and he really didn't notice that there was an Asian here.

Wearing a brown suit, it seems that it should be a brand, but this tight suit on his body looks particularly funny, because he is too thin, even if this is a slimming suit, but when worn on him, it will still give people the feeling that a child is wearing adult clothes.

There is no tie, and the open neckline reveals a large gold chain with thick fingers, and the hands are even more exaggerated.

The appearance can only be described as obscene, with collapsed eyebrows and triangular eyes, anyway, the first impression is obscene.

One mouth is English with a thick Xiangjiang accent, and asked Jin Muchen if he is Japanese, Jin Muchen has no good impression of the Japanese, and when this guy asks him like this, he feels even more unhappy.

"No, I'm Chinese."

He replied categorically, but he didn't expect that as soon as this guy heard that he was Chinese, his face immediately changed, and then he turned his head and no longer paid attention to him, and while turning around, he muttered in his mouth: "Damn, why are these damn Beiyan everywhere?" ”

Although he spoke in a very soft voice, Jin Muchen still heard it clearly, just as soon as he heard the word Beiyan, Jin Muchen's forehead immediately tensed, needless to say, this guy must be from Xiangjiang, and he is the kind of guy who has no sense of identity with China, and is even very anti-China.

Recently, the same kind of guys in Xiangjiang have been very troublesome, and they don't like this kind of person very much, but I didn't expect to let myself meet such a nasty ghost today, and the most hateful thing is to pretend to be 13 in front of me?

If this wasn't the Bentley family, Jin Muchen probably couldn't help but smash his fists.

"What's wrong?"

Candace, who was standing beside him, also sensed that something was wrong with Jin Muchenqing, and grabbed his hand and asked.

"Nothing! Just a bug? ”

Jin Muchen's voice was not very loud, but it could definitely be heard by the guy in front of him, the guy turned his head viciously, and his eyes first saw Candace, a pair of small triangular eyes, and immediately became lustful, and Candace was also very uncomfortable to look at.

Jin Muchen was even more disgusted with this guy's personality, and snorted coldly, when this guy turned his eyes and saw Jin Muchen's vicious eyes, he immediately withered, shrunk his neck, and then turned his head.

In the past few years in the United States, Jin Muchen has not encountered immigrants from Xiangjiang and Baodao, there are good and bad among these people, and he has not dealt with bastards like the previous one, so he is very familiar with their temperament.

These guys are a group of cheap bones, seeing white-skinned foreign devils, they can't wait to kneel and lick their fathers, and when they see Chinese, especially mainlanders, he plays tricks with you, but once you give him hard, most of them immediately soften.

Born with cartilage disease, you can't help it.
