Chapter 253: It's Time to Begin

Chapter 253 can begin

Decisively bought a relationship card, this kind of relationship card is not expensive, only 200 performance points, Qin Mubai's performance points are still a little more than 7,000 now, although he was pitted with more than 30,000 performance points, but Chitu stayed, and Qin Mubai also recognized it.

He also likes the red rabbit, and to be honest, although the origin of the red rabbit may now seem to the outside world to be a wild horse on the Mongolian steppe, but you don't care what kind of wild horse it is, as long as it runs out of results, this is a champion horse, this is.

You take a look, which champion horse breeding is not calculated in hundreds of thousands of dollars? It can be said that Chitu is now a money-making baby, and his own shovel officer is not a pit for it, right?

After getting the relationship with Zhao Peng, Qin Mubai was relieved a lot, and left Chitu behind, the most important thing is that as long as Zhao Peng doesn't say it, although Chitu's results are against the sky, but these staff members know, people outside don't know, there are few people who play horse racing in Hoh, and the matter of secretly breeding has been reduced to a minimum.

Saying goodbye to Chitu, this guy has a very high spirituality, and even Qin Mubai thinks that he can understand his words, so Qin Mubai deliberately dragged this guy around the racecourse.

There are now a lot of horses in the racecourse grazing on the grass, Qin Mubai pointed to those horses and said to Chitu: "I tell you, you kid controls your lower body, I will go to find horses all over the world for you, you must not fall here, those horses are not worthy of you." ”

Chitu hissed for a long time, and I don't know if this guy understands it, but looking at its disdainful little eyes, it is estimated that it can't look down on these horses.

Before leaving, Qin Mubai left Zhao Peng and them 200,000 forage fees, although I don't know if Chitu will have a problem eating ordinary grass, but let's give this guy a better meal, by the way, there are apples, this guy especially likes to eat apples.

Raising a horse is not so easy, especially if you have a top-quality horse like a thoroughbred.

After cultivating a relationship with Chitu, seeing that it was getting late, Qin Mubai left the racecourse and drove home, on the way home, Qin Mubai called Hu Xingwen.

"Professor Hu, I don't have anything to do lately, Professor Hu, if you have time, you can come over. "Qin Mubai hasn't had anything to do recently, at least it's okay in three or four days, King Chujiang usually notifies Qin Mubai that he has a task three or four days in advance, but now that he hasn't been notified, I don't know if he is solving the follow-up trouble that Chitu came over inexplicably.

"Yes, but it is not possible in the short term, we may not be able to pass it in at least three to five days, but when it comes to the appraisal of foreign famous paintings, our appraisers are not completely sure. Professor Hu Xingwen said very simply.

"Van Gogh's paintings, so be it, I'll go directly to the people at Sotheby's, they must have top appraisers in this area, and they will come and appraise them, but I won't necessarily auction all the paintings to them. Qin Mubai thought of an idea, Sotheby's people, as long as they contact themselves, the other party will definitely come over.

Qin Mubai's current decision is to auction only two pieces, one is the one for Dr. Gachet, and the other is the sunflower that has been destroyed in Japan. As for the other paintings, the giant canvas and the portrait Qin Mubai would not sell.

All that can be sold is the bird and the field in the dream.

"Yes. Professor Hu Xingwen thought about it, and nodded in agreement, although Qin Mubai said that he would sell them a painting, but Qin Mubai naturally had the final say on which painting it was, and the family would definitely hand over part of it to Sotheby's, after all, although the Palace Museum has special funds, it is impossible to compare with the auction house.

Unless it is some major Chinese cultural relics that have been sold abroad, the Palace Museum will never go to the auction house to buy paintings.

However, Qin Mubai has an advantage, that is, there is a personal income tax on the auction of cultural relics, but the personal income tax is 3%, which is paid by the seller himself, but if it is identified by the national cultural relics department as a cultural relic returned from overseas, only 2% of the personal income tax can be paid.

As for the proof of the repatriation of cultural relics, Qin Mubai is this, I believe that Hu Xingwen should have no problem issuing this certificate.

This is also a reasonable tax avoidance, although it is only 1%, but if the auction amount is huge, this 1% is not a big deal. 100 million is a tax of 1 million.

After discussing carefully with Professor Hu, Qin Mubai hung up the phone, and after hanging up the phone, Qin Mubai thought about it and turned out Ma Xiaoyun's phone again.

At this time, you have to admit that Qin Mubai went to these auction houses by himself, and it is not impossible for him to enter this circle, but it is more cumbersome, after all, you are not a celebrity at Sotheby's, and you must have to bring the collection with you at the beginning.

But if a person like Ma Xiaoyun comes forward, at least in terms of personal credit at Sotheby's, it must be many times higher than Qin Mubai's, and it is possible that people will directly send an appraiser.

In this way, it seems that 30,000 performance points does not seem to be a loss, but it would be better if Ma Xiaoyun was a super beauty, wouldn't it.

"What's the matter, do you want to invite me to dinner?" Picking up Qin Mubai's phone, Ma Xiaoyun said directly with a smile.

"Uh, no, it's okay if I want to invite you to dinner, you come to Hoshi, I'll invite you to dinner. Qin Mubai choked.

"Damn, are you sincere, I spent a few thousand yuan to fly over, and you invited me to dinner? Besides, if there are any good restaurants in Hoh, I can't even spend much money on you. Ma Xiaoyun leaned and said.

Qin Mubai: "...... feelings, you want to eat poverty, right?"

"Well, I'm here for your help. Qin Mubai simply changed the topic.

"What's the help, you say, I'll help if I can. Ma Xiaoyun immediately asked.

"That's right, I have a few Van Gogh paintings that I want to auction, can you help me find someone from the big three auction houses? I don't know you? Surely you do. Qin Mubai immediately shrugged his shoulders and said.

"I'm grass...... How many of Van Gogh's paintings are there?"Ma Xiaoyun couldn't help but burst into foul language, although he has a richest man, but his Lao Tzu's money is not his, he Lao Tzu gave him hundreds of millions as start-up capital, although Ma Xiaoyun has developed well, but his assets are only a few billion, and he has not even broken through 10 billion.

As a result, this product said that he had Van Gogh's paintings in his hand? And how many of them? This Nima, according to the calculation of a Van Gogh painting is 50 million US dollars, which is also one or two hundred million US dollars, okay?

The problem is that he is an asset, and he doesn't have that much cash at his disposal.

"Of course it's true. What am I lying to you for, do you recognize it? Qin Mubai immediately asked.

"Know, okay, I'll give you a call, I'll ask him to call you back in a while, damn, I didn't expect your kid to be inconspicuous, this is hidden deeply, no wonder I can't look down on the three melons and two dates I gave you." You wait. Ma Xiaoyun dropped a sentence and hung up the phone.

Looking at the phone in his hand, Qin Mubai was a little speechless, this guy is a little in a hurry, thinking that one is one play, but this is not in line with the character he showed.

When Qin Mubai returned home, Qin Mushuang and the two little ones were at home, but the three of them were playing somatosensory games in front of the TV, and they were playing quite high, so they said hello to them, Qin Mubai went upstairs with a smile and went to stay in his study.

About half an hour later, Qin Mubai's phone rang, and when he looked at his mobile phone, the call was still an overseas call.

"Hello, is it Mr. Qin?" A Chinese came from the other side of the phone, but it sounded a little awkward, and when I heard it, it was not Chinese, it should be a translator.

"Yes, I'm Qin Mubai, you can use English directly, I understand. Qin Mubai said with a smile in English.

"Hello Mr. Qin, I am one of the heads of Sotheby's auction house in New York, my name is Shanmir Dirk. Sure enough, the voice of a middle-aged man on the other side of the phone quickly changed.

"Hello Mr. Dirk. Qin Mubai immediately said hello.

"Just call me Shanmir, Mr. Qin, I heard that you have a few Van Gogh paintings in your hand ready to be auctioned and want to appraise them?" Shanmir immediately said in a somewhat hurried tone.

Although there are many Van Gogh paintings, most of them are in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, and there are not many paintings that are outside.

And even auction houses like Sotheby's don't auction many fine paintings like this, and over the years, Van Gogh's paintings have been auctioned less and less, and the value of Van Gogh's paintings has become higher and higher.

"Yes. Qin Mubai smiled, this is the benefit of inviting Ma Xiaoyun to come forward, and people will not doubt it. If Qin Mubai called by himself, the other party would definitely ask Qin Mubai to bring the collection over.

"Mr. Qin, I don't know which paintings you have in your hand?"

"One is "Doctor Gachet", which is the tallest of Van Gogh's paintings, which is said to have disappeared from history, and the other is Van Gogh's "Sunflowers", which is said to have been destroyed in the Japanese War, but here for me, there are two more, one is "Flying Birds" and the other is "The Field in Dreams". As for the rest, Qin Mubai didn't say anything.

"Flying birds, the field in my dreams, with all due respect, Mr. Qin, I have never heard of these two paintings. Sanmir was a little surprised, and although he was surprised by the other two, these two were even more surprised.

"I was also surprised, because if these two paintings were not written by Van Gogh, I also thought that they could not be Van Gogh, after all, I had never heard of them, but these two paintings were written by Van Gogh himself. Qin Mubai said casually.

"Mr. Qin, I don't know if you can take a picture and send it to us? If it's a rough certainty, we'll send an expert to fly directly from the United States. Sanmir said directly.

Although there are Sotheby's offices in China, Sotheby's also has competition with Sotheby's in the world.

"No problem. Qin Mubai agreed.
