Chapter 232: Birds and Fields
"Why, am I not living here?" Qin Mubai was a little strange.
"My brother, why don't you count it yourself? I've been living with you for so long, my mother calls me every day to ask when I'm going back, usually I say that you are close to my unit, and there are some people who say this, but it's the weekend, if I don't go back, my mother should come over, have you figured out how to explain?" Qin Mushuang rolled her eyes and said in a low voice.
"Uh, well, I see, then you go back. Qin Mubai was a little embarrassed and hurriedly spoke.
"By the way, my mother asked you to take the time to go back, saying that she would ask you what was going on. Qin Mushuang opened his mouth and added.
"Then she doesn't call me directly. Qin Mubai was a little surprised.
"Didn't you go abroad some time ago? I told my mother, although you have a phone call, but my mother didn't dare to call, isn't there an international roaming? Qin Mushuang shrugged his shoulders.
"Then I see. Qin Mubai nodded.
"I said you have to give your mother an explanation, it's not a problem to go on like this. Qin Mushuang grabbed Qin Mubai and said, "Especially now that you are making this money too fast, I can't believe it, who are you receiving?
"These antiques are actually left by our ancestors, left to the eldest son and grandson of the long house, I met the conditions, and then they sent them back from Singapore. Qin Mubai immediately opened his mouth and said, this excuse can be said directly, because these people are real, and they are naturally not afraid of being exposed.
"I see, I said, many of the boxes they sent over were approved by the customs. Qin Mushuang immediately suddenly.
Qin Mubai knew that this should be Tang Yin's painting sent over alone, and the express delivery team in the mall that Qin Mubai invited.
"But where did you get the money? These paintings can be given to you, but you have to declare customs when you enter the country, right? How do you pay the customs duties for these things?" Qin Mushuang was a little curious.
"I don't know about this, anyway, these things are directly returned to China, and the formalities are not handled by me. Qin Mubai shook his head and said.
Qin Mubai knows about paying taxes, buying antiques from abroad and returning to China, if he collects them by himself, he enters the country through formal channels, and if he wants to declare customs, he has to pay taxes, but the proportion of taxes paid and how to pay them, Qin Mubai is not clear.
These things are not something that the public can play, and naturally no one pays attention to it, as for how the things in his hands get through, it is not very clear.
In fact, it is sometimes simple to bring back the antiques bought abroad, such as porcelain and ancient paintings, which can be said to be handicrafts, but this thing, if you say that it is a handicraft, sometimes there will be follow-up troubles, anyway, it is better to take the formal way of this thing.
Especially now that these things are becoming more and more strict, it doesn't matter if some ordinary luxury goods and the like, anyway, you buy them back and use them, but antiques are collectibles, and there is still a certain amount of formal channel fees.
"Well, you're really out of shit luck. Qin Mushuang shook her head, anyway, she couldn't figure it out, even if these things were the regulations of the ancestors, and they had to be handed over to the eldest son and grandson of the long house, but were the people who collected and kept these antiques so willing?
"Hehe, who made me the eldest son and grandson of the Changfang, by the way, have you had enough pocket money recently?" Qin Mubai laughed twice before asking.
"Oh, do you want to give me pocket money?" Qin Mushuang sighed in some surprise and quipped.
"Why, no, isn't it normal for my brother to give my sister pocket money?" Qin Mubai said confidently.
"Yes, it's normal, but since I was a child, have you ever given me pocket money? And, from junior high school to high school, anyone who has nothing to do with me asks for money to spend. Qin Mushuang looked at Qin Mubai with a strange face and asked.
"Uh...... That's not because mom is biased and gives you more pocket money. Qin Mubai choked for a moment, and then said confidently, this is the truth.
"It's not that you spend money quickly, I am reluctant to spend money, and in the end my pocket money was cheated out by you. Qin Mushuang pouted.
"It's not, it's my mother who said that her daughter wants to be rich, so she gives you more pocket money, what is the theory, why boys should be poor, and girls should be rich, I think it should be treated equally. Qin Mubai rolled his eyes.
"That's the case, then why don't you let Qin Yan and them wear tattered clothes tomorrow?" Qin Mushuang snickered and asked.
"Well, I just said my opinion, but my opinion is wrong, my mother's opinion is right, my daughter should be rich, that's right. Qin Mubai immediately changed his tone, of course his daughter has to be rich, what if he is not rich, what if he is easily deceived by a little bastard in the future?
"Shameless, okay, I don't have a shortage of money to spend, you don't have to give it to me, keep it for your two daughters, they will have more places to spend money in the future." Qin Mushuang said with a smile.
"That's not good, who made you my sister, our old sister must also hurt. Qin Mubai hugged Qin Mushuang's shoulders and said with a smile.
"Do you have something to ask me for help with?" Qin Mushuang immediately looked alert.
"Look, is your brother and I that kind of person? I can ask you for help with anything, if there is no matter, then I will transfer Alipay to you directly." Qin Mubai said very simply.
"Okay, you can do whatever you want, it's been more than 20 years, and it's not easy to spend the pocket money given by my brother. Qin Mushuang shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm going to clean up the house, I think, you should find a nanny quickly, otherwise, I won't live in this house." Before leaving, Qin Mushuang couldn't help but complain again.
Qin Mushuang went to clean up the house, Qin Mubai simply took out his mobile phone and transferred 200,000 yuan to Qin Mushuang, after he paid off Li Aiguo's house payment in his hand, there was about 5 million in his hand, plus the salary these days or something, there was probably about 5.3 million.
The money is far from opening a museum...... It's still far away, but I already have a lot of paintings that can be sold, and these can be auctioned at that time, and the start-up capital in the early stage should be able to be gathered.
At the very least, the money to buy the land was scraped together first.
Fortunately, the land in Hohwa is not very expensive, if you buy a piece of land that can open a large museum in a place like Pearl City...... It is estimated that Qin Mubai has to make a "Mona Lisa's Smile" to be enough.
When I went upstairs and looked, the two little guys were sitting on the desk studying in a serious way, Qin Mubai thought about it, didn't disturb them, but went downstairs directly and entered his treasure room.
After entering the treasure room, Qin Mubai was slightly stunned, the inside of the treasure room was no longer the original appearance, at this moment, the walls were already full of ancient paintings, and they were all ancient paintings after being protected by a special protective glass frame, and the entire wall was already hung in a circle.
Qin Mubai immediately looked at them one by one, the most natural is Tang Yin's paintings, Tang Yin's output is relatively high, this guy even gave Qin Mubai a full set of paintings, and not only that, the most conspicuous of them is naturally the three paintings taken out by Tang Yin by Zhang Zeduan.
The three paintings that had long since disappeared into the long river of history are now quietly hanging on his wall. The specific value of these three paintings is difficult for Qin Mubai to comment, but it is estimated that at least 100 million yuan will be used as a unit.
And after Qin Mubai looked at Tang Yin's paintings one by one, he smiled a little bitterly, because many of these paintings are now preserved in museums across the country, and he has another authentic work here...... What the hell is this?
Could it be that Tang Yin painted two paintings at that time? This statement can also be said, but since Tang Yin gave it, Qin Mubai could not destroy these duplicate paintings.
After thinking about it for a long time, Qin Mubai simply didn't want to think about it, forget it, anyway, the channel of his source is Singapore, as for how the outside world guesses that it is a matter of the outside world, but Qin Mubai probably has an idea in his heart, that is, a repeated painting like this, and he will try to ask for as little as possible in the future.
Otherwise, there is no explanation, if there are too many such things, it is easy for people in the outside world to think that Qin Mubai has a high-end factory that manufactures fakes in his hands, and it can already be fake.
Belch...... Although it seems to be the case, Qin Mubai is definitely unwilling.
After reading Tang Yin's paintings, the rest is Van Gogh's paintings, Van Gogh only had two oil paintings at that time, which were painted on the spot, especially the huge oil painting, although it has been processed at the moment, but it is placed on the ground.
Qin Mubai asked Van Gogh for two paintings, one is "Doctor Gachet" and the other is "Sunflowers" destroyed in the war in Japan, he should have four Van Gogh paintings, but this is not the case at the moment, there are a total of six Van Gogh paintings here.
And the extra one is "Flying Birds", which is the name of the painting, because in the blank space of the oil painting, there is Van Gogh's signature, the name of the painting, and the sentence he wrote for the painting: I am the bird in the dream.
The name of this bird is Asuka Bird, but it does not have any birds, but it is a unique perspective, and if modern people look at it, they will immediately understand that this is not the white clouds that can be seen from the top of the plane, the scenery like the earth.
No wonder it's called a bird, it should be that the owner of the painting has become a bird, and the other one is "The Field in a Dream", which is a field landscape painting that Van Gogh is good at, but the difference is that the color of this painting and the characters on it are completely different from his previous style, the colors are very bright, the characters on it have a smile on their faces, and the whole painting seems to be full of sunshine, hope, and dreams.
Qin Mubai didn't know how much these paintings were worth, but if these paintings were sold, it was estimated that they would only be sold at auction houses, and they were also the kind of top international auction houses, Van Gogh's oil paintings, although some people in China also bought them, but how to say about these paintings? Overall, foreign scholars are even more crazy.
