My identity as a collector was exposed by the village flower
Chapter 399 The Metropolitan Museum
Chapter 399 The Metropolitan Museum
Although Fang Xing made it clear that these crystal skulls were not as outrageous as in the legend, they were definitely precious.Especially in foreign countries, this thing is of great research value. Once it is auctioned, it will definitely fetch a sky-high price.
In fact, the legend about the crystal skull does not only exist in Mexico.
It is rumored that in 1927, a pair of crystal skulls was discovered in what is now Honduras, and its age is estimated to be around the Mayan civilization.
It is said that it is made of high-purity transparent crystal, which is no different from a human skull.Its crystal skull does not leave any traces of using tools, that is, it is carved from a complete pair of crystals.The hardness of the crystal is about 7 degrees, and it is absolutely impossible to use a general knife without leaving marks on the crystal.When laser light is applied to its nostrils, the entire skull glows.
It was only later confirmed that it was a rumor.
"Thirteen, the same as the one in the legend." Jackie Chan counted them.
Xia Yu and the others were silent, but they were all thinking in their hearts how to deal with it, or how to divide it.
Even Jim wants a piece of the pie, he knows it all too well.Bring this thing back to the United States, put it on the auction floor, and immediately become rich overnight!
Seeing that everyone was embarrassed to ask, Fang Xing took the initiative to say, "Well, each of you will take one, and the rest..."
"Take it, take it!" Jackie Chan said hastily.
If he can get one, he will be very satisfied.
The same goes for Xia Yu, Yuanyuan, and Jim. They all expressed their satisfaction at being given one, which is already an advantage.They knew that without Fang Xing, they would not have been able to obtain these crystal skulls, most of the credit was due to Fang Xing.
"Okay, then I won't be polite. Now, let's go back to the original state! We'll leave in a while, don't linger." Fang Xing said.
No need for Fang Xing to tell, everyone knows how to do it.
Once the news got out, the Mexican government might not let him leave, at least the Crystal Skull had to stay.
Strictly speaking, their behavior is the theft of cultural relics.However, cultural relics excavated abroad are not as strict as in China, and private individuals have the right to handle them themselves.
The Mexican style, especially the hot Mexican beauty, Fang Xing and the others have no chance to get in touch.
A day later, they returned safely to the United States.When crossing the border, he was afraid of being detected, so Jim activated his banknote ability, and Fang Xing and his party were respectfully escorted across the border.
In a foreign country, money is handy.
Jim has already contacted an auction company through his contacts.The auction company stated that if it is really a crystal skull, it is guaranteed to have a profit of more than 1000 million US dollars.
This Coke spoiled Jim.
Although he made a lot of money with Fang Xing recently, 1000 million US dollars is still a huge sum of money!
He asked Fang Xing if he wanted to put it up for auction as well.
"Okay, let's auction one too!"
He didn't take out too much, and it would be worthless if there was too much.
As for other people, like Jackie Chan, Xia Yu and others, they are all kept and will not be auctioned.Especially Jackie Chan, he is not short of money!Wouldn't it be nice to collect this treasure by yourself?
It will only appreciate in value in the future, not depreciate.
Xia Yu, Yuanyuan and Xu Qing were excited for a while.The minimum guarantee is 1000 million US dollars, more than 6000 million RMB!Even for a big star like Xia Yu, it will take three or a few years to earn it, right?
After all, not every star is like those top-notch fresh meats, who dare to call more than [-] million in salary for any scene.
It is no exaggeration to say: get rich.
Not long after, people from the auction company came to the door in person, a large group of people, including as many as five appraisers, which can be called an appraisal team.It can be seen that they attach great importance to the crystal skull.
Regarding the consultation from the person in charge of the auction company, Jim did not disclose too much, only stating that they found it from a certain ruins in Mexico not long ago.
The identification team quickly gave the answer. The crystal skull is very old and can be traced back to the Mayan civilization. It is basically certain that this is what the Mayan civilization left behind.
After getting this confirmation, the person in charge was very happy to shake hands with Jim and Fang Xing.
"It's a happy cooperation. We will arrange the auction as soon as possible. The crystal skull will be the finale..." The person in charge said a lot, basically all kinds of guarantees.
It is foreseeable that when the news spreads, the international archaeological community will be shaken.Without their deliberate publicity, there will be a lot of noise.
There are many fanatics of the Mayan civilization, many of whom are super rich.Many people are superstitious that the Mayan civilization hides a huge unknown secret. Once revealed, it is possible to live forever.
It is also true that many super rich are interested in it.
The appearance of the crystal skull will definitely attract looting.
Their auction house was able to sign a guarantee agreement of 1000 million yuan with Jim. It was not a random signing, but it was well-founded and confident.If the operation is good, tens of millions of dollars is not impossible.
After sending away the people from the auction company, within half a day, news about the crystal skull spread all over the Internet.
Jim got a lot of calls, a lot of them from the media, they wanted to do feature interviews and things like that, but Jim pushed them away.
"Boss, people from the Metropolitan Museum want to see you, do you want to meet?" Jim answered the phone again, ran over and said to Fang Xing.
Metropolitan meseum?
It is the largest museum in the United States, and it is one of the top five museums in the world together with the Palace Museum in China, the British Museum in London, the Louvre in Paris, France, and the Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia.
Although I don't know the specific intention of the other party, but visually, it is aimed at the crystal skull.
"Well! Then let's meet!" Fang Xing had an idea in his mind.
The people from the Metropolitan Museum came very quickly, and it was also a team with as many as a dozen people.
The leader of the team was a corned egg head, smoother than the head of other monks. I don't know how to do it, and the flies couldn't stand still.
Foreigners just get to know each other directly and get straight to the point.
"It's impossible to donate, but your museum has a few Chinese cultural relics that I'm interested in, and they can be exchanged. Please think about it." Fang Xing said to them.
Want him to donate?Are you thinking too much?He is not those rich Chinese who have taken advantage of them, who are stingy with their own country, but are very generous with foreign schools and institutions, like licking a dog.
"Mr. Fang, what cultural relics are you interested in? Can you tell me in detail?"
In fact, the Metropolitan Museum does not expect to be able to persuade the other party to donate the crystal skull. Before coming, they have given a plan.
One is to pay for a crystal skull.
The second was proposed by Fang Xing, the exchange of cultural relics.
""The Picture of Shining Night and White", the picture of the emperor worshiping the Buddha, the Qin bronze bell, the gold-plated belt hook inlaid with pearls, green Song stone and jade, and the dry lacquer of the Tang Dynasty with ramie, etc. can be used. You can discuss it first. If the value is similar, you can exchange " Fang Xing said calmly.
This is not the first time he has done such a thing, he has played this game when he was in Europe.
This book will be finished in the next few days, everyone can rest assured that the pits that need to be filled will be filled.
