Chapter 668 Foreign Antique Market

A group of people walked into the second exhibition hall. This exhibition hall displays Chinese art paintings. There are a total of 210 three collections, each of which can be called the best. The main maintenance this time is the Chinese treasures in this hall. .

Li Mo glanced over and stood there for a long time without moving.

"Expert Qin, what's wrong with you?" a security guard asked in a low voice.

"Seeing this, I feel panicked. Every piece is a rare treasure among our national treasures." Li Mo swept his eyes and immediately walked in one direction. The painting was "Picture of Emperors of Past Dynasties".This superb painting by Yan Liben of the Tang Dynasty is now in his collection in the No. [-] Guyunxuan Hall. He would like to see where the sacred copy of the "Picture of Emperors of Past Dynasties" collected in the Boston Museum is.

Walking in and taking a closer look, Li Mo immediately found that there are obvious differences in many details. His different pupils swept across, and the whole picture of the emperor emitted an orange halo, which turned into dazzling circles of light and spread out.

This is a Song Dynasty copy, but who made it is unknown.Nevertheless, the artistic level of this painting has reached a high level and is priceless.

"Hey, today is really an eye-opener, and I can meet little ghosts here."

When Zheng Bin came to Li Mo's side, he immediately started talking. When Yan Liben's masterpiece "The Picture of Emperors of Past Dynasties" was published, it caused a sensation for a long time, and the hot searches once compared all those celebrities.

"Although it is a copy, it is undeniable that this painting has a very high artistic level. Associate Professor Zheng, let's go over there to see other paintings."

Li Mo and others slowly admired the national treasure from China, feeling sad while walking.

"This is "Picture of Apricot Blossom and Parrot" by Huang Jucai of the Five Dynasties."

"This is "Five Hundred Arhats: Giving to the Poor" by Zhou Jichang in the Southern Song Dynasty."

"This is "Five Hundred Arhats: Giving Food to Hungry Ghosts" by Lin Tinggui of the Southern Song Dynasty."

"This is "Dragon and Tiger Picture Axis" by Chen Rong in the Southern Song Dynasty."

Li Mo couldn't stand it anymore, he glanced at Zheng Bin and whispered, "I'm going out to get some air, you guys watch first."

The sun was shining brightly outside, Li Mo stood at the door and took a few deep breaths, his depressed mood was slightly better.

"Expert Qin, if you're in a bad mood, let's go to the smoking room and get one together?" Expert Huang from the Palace Museum also came out, but there was no emotion on his face.

"You don't know how to smoke, why did Expert Huang come out?"

"I was greeted by someone about your affairs. I came out to talk to you. Boston is only our first stop, and we will go to the second place when things are over here. Although you are in charge of porcelain, it doesn't mean that you must I want you to stay here all the time. We used to take turns going out every time we came here, as if it was a free tour, and the museums that invited us didn't care too much."

"Expert Huang has been here many times?"

"When I was young, I came here to fight with my mentor. I counted it eight times, so I am familiar with the inside. The Boston Museum is one of the top five museums in the world. The collections in the porcelain museum we see today are actually not fine. , in addition to the Porcelain Museum and the Painting and Calligraphy Museum, there is also the Forest of Steles Museum, which exhibits a lot of steles from the Northern Wei Dynasty. After Lin Lin finally figured it out, there are a total of eight in our Huaxia Museum alone. You can imagine how much the United States has plundered from our country Antiques go back."

Expert Huang took out a cigarette, but he didn't light it, he just put it under his nose and smelled it.

"Expert Huang, when did the work officially start?"

"You can do it at any time. If you can be lazy for a long time, you can be lazy for a long time. We were invited by them, and they can't do anything about it. If we don't have dinner, we will start. You can also act in the afternoon and act alone tomorrow."

"Okay, I will study with you this afternoon."

The staff of the museum still took care of the eating habits of the Chinese expert group, and specially ordered a Chinese restaurant.Although the taste is not authentic enough, it is more than enough to eat those unnutritious fast food.

After lunch, everyone didn't rest, and started working step by step.This greatly increased the favorability of the staff of the Boston Museum, and once exaggerated that the Chinese people were too honest in doing things.

Li Mo also devoted himself to his work. His main role is the maintenance of porcelain. In fact, this work is dispensable. If it hadn't experienced drastic changes in the environment, the changes of porcelain would be almost negligible.

After five o'clock in the afternoon, the first day's work was over, Li Mo had just returned to the hotel when he saw two familiar people sitting in the leisure area of ​​the lobby on the first floor.

"The two people I invited have arrived, go and have a look first, you don't have to follow."

"Yes, then be careful yourself." This is a five-star luxury hotel, the background itself is very deep, and the probability of accidents is almost negligible.The four security guards did not leave, but sat on a table and chair not far away and ordered a few cups of coffee.

"Mr. Steven, Mr. Gulishi, hello, I'm sorry to keep you waiting."

Steven and Gu Lishi originally sat at a round table each, but now they knew that they were both his invited helpers after hearing Li Mo's greeting.

Li Mo introduced their identities to each other, and then they all sat down and ordered three cups of coffee.

"I told you on the phone, and I will tell you again now. My legal name is Qin Mo. From now until I leave Boston, you are all my partners. As for how much I can pay you , Let’s see your performance on the first day tomorrow. Of course, if the cooperation fails, I won’t let you waste these two days in vain.”

"I trust Mr. Qin very much." Gu Lishi said without hesitation, because of Xu Jiaguo's relationship, Gu Lishi knew a little more about Li Mo's net worth.If he can create a charitable foundation of more than 200 billion, he will not treat himself badly.

"Mr. Qin, don't worry, I will use my professional personality as a guarantee, and I will serve you wholeheartedly."

Li Mo picked up the coffee and said with a smile: "Using the Chinese habit, let's clink glasses and have a happy cooperation."

"Pleasant to work with."

Putting down the coffee cup, Li Mo asked, "Steven, you are in the art business, how much do you know about the Boston antique market?"

"I really did research on this. There is a famous open-air market in Boston, on the side of Harrison Avenue. The best open-air market in the United States is seasonal, open from April to October every year, and has all kinds of agricultural products. Handicrafts and curios are available for purchase. There are also plenty of unique treats and an assortment of freshly baked breads and pastries to fill you up.”

"Where have you been?"

"I've been there. Those in our industry know best. If you can find a priceless antique, it will change your life immediately. I also hope to change my own destiny, but it's a pity that God doesn't favor me. Maybe I Not trying hard enough."

Li Mo smiled. This Steven has the body of a foreigner and speaks fluent Chinese language. Anyway, he always sounds obedient.

"Actually, in the United States, the real good things are not necessarily hidden in those high-end and prosperous markets. Because of historical reasons, American soldiers robbed many treasures abroad, and they will pass them down from generation to generation after returning to the United States. Sometimes when we go to the countryside, a poor family can suddenly find an antique worth millions of dollars. It may be from China, it may be from an island country, or it may come from several countries in Southeast Asia. As long as you have With ability, Taobao here in the United States doesn’t have to worry about making a fortune.”

Gu Lishi took over the topic and said: "I also know about this. In the United States, Taobao is actually a profession, and there are many people engaged in this profession. For example, a kind of Taobao that is more popular now is called warehouse Taobao. There are a lot of professional people participating in Taobao bidding on the storage side. It’s just that compared with art Taobao, it sounds relatively low-end.”

Li Mo was more interested in the warehouse Taobao, so he asked Gu Lishi for more details.
