Chapter 897: Tong Yan Wuji
Uncle Jian thought about it seriously, "It's really a bit difficult to sell them all, but it's not impossible if you say sell them one by one." I can help you get in touch with the auction house, and it shouldn't be a problem to sell them all at your ideal price. It's just that if you do this, the time span may be relatively long, and you should also know that if you auction so many bronzes and lacquerware, it will inevitably attract the attention of society, and only a part of it will be auctioned slowly so that it will not be noticed. I just don't know if you can wait? ”
"Uncle Jian, if it's an auction, how long will it take to sell them all?"
Uncle Jian thought for a moment and stretched out five fingers, "Five days? We can't wait for five days! Lu Xiaoyu said anxiously.
Supreme Treasure glanced at Lu Xiaoyu, "You can really do it, do you think this auction is a very simple matter?" First, there is the entrustment stage, then it is announced and displayed, and then it enters the operation process, and finally it is settlement and delivery. And with so many of our bronzes and lacquerware, we must have to repeat this process over and over again. In this way, five days is enough, it must be fifty days! Anyway, Uncle Jian, fifty days is really a long time, did you make the auction go faster? ”
"I'm sorry two children, but I'm going to disappoint you, I'm not talking about five days or fifty days, but five months. This is already the fastest auction procedure I can know, and the fastest time to sell all of your bronzes and lacquerware. No matter how fast it is, it won't come out. You know, the size of your wagon is something I've never seen before. Uncle Jian said helplessly.
Now Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu were really dumbfounded, Lu Xiaoyu originally thought that if it was five days, then they would have to wait. Supreme Treasure thought that if it took fifty days, he didn't know if he could hurry up, but Uncle Jian suddenly appeared for five months and confused both of them.
"Uncle Jian, are you kidding? Does it really take that long? It's easy for me to watch auctions on TV! Just shout the price and then make a final decision, isn't it? Supreme Treasure asked.
"You are right to say this, just because your batch of antiques is very valuable, and there are many of them, it must go through abnormal procedures, and such expensive antiques must also find buyers who are willing to bid before they can be sold. Although I am also very interested in bronze and lacquerware, but if I want to say that I want to wrap them all up, I guess I am far from having this strength, and I believe that you don't want these treasures of your to be sold cheaply, right? This is really difficult, don't worry, let me think about it. ”
Supreme Treasure remembered his previous plan, so he asked Uncle Jian, "Uncle Jian, I just heard you say that you seem to know someone from the Celestial Empire's embassy, aren't you?" ”
"That's right, I do know the people from the Celestial Embassy, and I have a deep friendship with their ambassadors. It's just that you mean to sell these things to them? No, no, no, I estimate that if you let them see so many bronzes and lacquerware from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there will only be two results, one is to confiscate all of them, but this is the United States, and it is estimated that they will not have any way to pick it up, and the other is that they simply don't have the ability to buy all the bronzes and lacquerware in your hands, so the method you said still doesn't work. "Uncle Jian has always been just trying to figure out a way for the Supreme Treasure from the perspective of a businessman, he doesn't know that the Supreme Treasure just hopes to be able to exchange these things for enough gold, silver and materials, and it is enough, and it doesn't need a lot of cash.
"Uncle Jian, probably I didn't tell you the purpose of our visit this time."
"Didn't you cross over?" Uncle Jian seemed to have been convinced of the statement that Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu had crossed over, and Supreme Treasure couldn't figure out whether he was deliberately ridiculing the two of them or really believing it.
"Yes, you think so! But I hope Uncle Jian don't mistake us as thieves of national treasures, and we are here with these bronzes and lacquerware for a reason. I can't explain the exact reason to you, but it's definitely not a self-serving thing. So we didn't bring some things to make enough money, we wanted these things to be transferred to the Celestial Empire through your hands, of course, as long as we could exchange them for a ton of real money, plus a large container truck of supplies. Isn't that anything compared to the original value of these things? Supreme Treasure explained.
"You don't want to exchange dollars? Oh yes, you have crossed over, and the dollar is really of little value to you, and it is indeed well-founded to say that you want to exchange gold and silver, but I don't know what else you want to take? Uncle Jian wondered.
"As long as there are medical drugs and equipment that can be used, the more the better, and it can fit a large container truck."
"If Uncle Jian has a way, it would be better to help us get some arms!" Lu Xiaoyu said excitedly.
"Arms? Little fish children are really childlike! Where do you ask me to find you arms, and I'm not an arms dealer. ”
"Uncle Jian, don't listen to his nonsense, we only need the two things I said before. It would be best if there was this munition, and it didn't matter if it didn't have it, and we didn't want to make it difficult for you, Uncle Jian. ”
Uncle Jian lowered his head and pondered for a while, then suddenly raised his head and said, "Okay! I'll leave this matter to me, I'll go to the Celestial Empire embassy to confirm first, and see what their attitude is towards these bronzes and lacquerware, as well as the materials you said, although they are indeed a drop in the bucket compared to the value of these cultural relics themselves, but I still need to negotiate with them, after all, it's not a small amount, and you don't have to take the check to the bank to exchange cash, and I'll cash the materials for you together when the time comes. What do you think? ”
"If that's the case, thank you Uncle Jian so much, we're here waiting for your reply." Supreme Treasure said gratefully.
"You'd better go and wait for news from me at my residence in this Chinatown! It's not as dangerous as we are inside, and it's still very dangerous on the streets, and when you get to my house, no one will come to make trouble, so don't go anywhere, just wait for my news inside. ”
Hearing that Uncle Jian arranged it so thoughtfully, Supreme Treasure and Lu Xiaoyu were not only grateful but grateful, but what made them feel incredible was why Uncle Jian would help them so wholeheartedly, and he didn't ask for anything, nor did he ask for anything in return. is even more miraculously believed that the two of them have crossed over. Now it is even more reassuring to let them live in their own residence, which is really a bit unguessable.
