Chapter 66 Alright, Future Hero of John Country

It stands to reason that the more things there are, the less valuable they are, especially when it comes to works of art.

But Zhao's father did not take the usual route, not only reducing the price, but also increasing the price.

And also put on a confident attitude.

And the reason why he did this is entirely because he understands the demand value of commodities better than anyone else.

What is the demand value of a commodity?
To put it simply, the value of a commodity depends not only on its scarcity, but more on the mentality of the demander.

It's like a bottle of mineral water worth one yuan. If you sell it to people in the desert and people in the city, can the price be the same?

In the same way, from John's perspective.

Regardless of whether this Mona Lisa is the third or fourth in the world, as long as they don't have it in John's country, then for their John's country, this is the first Mona Lisa.

At the same time, the country of John hates the country of Gaul very much. Under this situation, if the museum of their own country can receive a famous painting that the country of Gaul has been proud of for a hundred years, then for them, its influence will no longer be used. Money counts.

It was also for this reason that Father Zhao assumed such an attitude.

Besides, the owner of the Big John Museum, after hearing Father Zhao's words, he still showed embarrassment.

Reasonably, he wanted it very much, but the price shouldn't be too scary.

With this in mind, he asked cautiously, "Then how much do you think is appropriate?"

"Twelve pieces." After hearing this, Father Zhao pondered for a while, and then quoted his own price.

"Impossible!" The curator of the Big John Museum directly refused.

If the Mona Lisa that Father Zhao presented was the first in the world, he might agree immediately, and even add a little more.

But this is the third Mona Lisa in the world after all, so it is impossible for him to accept this request.

"Then tell me." Father Zhao was not angry, but asked instead.

"Didn't you say that the most auspicious number in China is seven? The authority I use is to pick seven pieces for you!" The curator thought for a while, and then replied with what Father Zhao said in front of the whole world.

"Mr. Curator, here I want to admit a mistake to you." Facing the words of the curator, Father Zhao said sincerely.

"What is wrong?"

"I lied!"

"Lie? What do you mean?
"The number that China hates the most is seven." Father Zhao replied very sincerely.

Director of the Big John Museum: "..."

"Actually, the number we Chinese people like most is ten. For example, when we describe something very good, we use it to describe it as perfect." Father Zhao said with a kind smile regardless of whether the other party was speechless or not. Said his price.

"Do you think I believe it?" The curator pursed his lips and said with a wry smile.

"You can check it out. If I tell a lie, I will give you the third Mona Lisa." Father Zhao replied sternly.

"Eight, at most, ten is impossible." The curator also knew that Zhao's father had come prepared, sighed, and told his price.

After Zhao's father heard it, he showed a look of relief, but continued to bargain in the next second: "Mr. Curator, since you are so sincere, then I won't waste your time. In this way, nine pieces, let's Chinese people are also very fond of nine. For example, some words, what nine and nine return to one, above nine heavens, don’t you believe it, our ancient emperors called themselves nine-five supreme, or you can search for the ID cards of our Chinese people , More than 90.00% of the people have nine ID cards!"

curator:"….."

The curator was a little speechless, he didn't expect the other party to be so shrewd, and he couldn't take any losses in a daze.

"Let me ask my superiors!" After a while, the curator gave an answer.

"Please!" Father Zhao didn't care, just waited with a smile.

The curator went to a hidden place and started making phone calls.

After more than 20 minutes, the curator slowly came over.

"Dear Zhao, do you think the price can be lowered, how about eight pieces?"

"No, it's only nine pieces. I'm already the lowest price. In fact, you don't lose money after thinking about it, curator. We have kept so many things with you for so many years, and everyone who should see them has finished reading them. You are not losing money. Father Zhao refused, and at the same time found a way for the other party.

Seeing that Zhao's father still kept his original intentions, the curator sighed, and then said: "Hey, you Chinese people are really strong in business..."

Hearing this, Father Zhao knew that the matter had come to an end, and tried his best to restrain the joy in his heart, Father Zhao said flatteringly.

"Where is it, when it comes to doing business, it still depends on you, the curator. You will soon become famous all over the world!"

"You pick it. After you pick it, after your painting is delivered to us, we can trade it anytime!"

The curator did not accept this rainbow fart, but the details of the slightly upturned corners of the mouth have already betrayed his heart.

Father Zhao also came prepared.

He complimented a few more words, and then reported the antiques he wanted like a few treasures.

"Ming Xuande Cloisonne Dragon Jar"

"Picture of Admonitions of Women's History", "Picture of Ink Bamboo", "Picture of Xishan Thatched Cottage""

"Bronze Double Ram Zun, Sui Dynasty Amitabha Statue"

"Kanghou Gui, Xinghou Gui, Liao Sancai Big Arhat Statue"

When selecting these nine items, the curator of the Big John Museum twitched uncontrollably a few times, which was a manifestation of heartache.

Anyone who understands the antique business knows that the nine items Father Zhao selected are all treasures of the Huaxia Exhibition Area.

If it wasn't for disgusting Gaul.

If you don't want to become the world's number one museum.

If it wasn't for trying to be Big John's hero.

Reasonably speaking, even if the curator died, he would not agree to this deal.

But the matter has come to this point, and there is no sign of him struggling, after all, his superiors have agreed.

"Waiting for your goods..." the curator said a little tiredly.

"Mr. Curator, I'm sorry, I actually lied to you again." Regarding the curator's fatigue, Father Zhao replied again with apology.

"Ah? Why do you like to lie so much?" The curator asked speechlessly when he heard that the other party admitted to lying again.

Father Zhao laughed and said, "Actually, I have already brought this painting, but it is only in the embassy in John.

Hearing that the painting is in his own country, the curator was speechless but more surprised.

"Okay, can you please send it over now?"

"Okay, I'll inform the people on our side!" Father Zhao didn't refuse.

I got up and made a phone call, and explained the situation politely. About an hour later, a car with an official license plate drove into the secret parking lot of the museum. The incomparable internal passageway sent the painting to the curator's office without anyone noticing.

And the curator is not idle, he has already called all the top oil painting appraisers and professional institutions in John Country, including the official appraisers.

After the painting entered the office, dozens of people in the room all looked at it in unison.

Father Zhao didn't waste any time, he took the painting and put it on the painting table, allowing the experts in front of him to appraise it wildly.

The identification took three to four hours.

After more than a dozen rounds of appraisal were over, all the people involved in the appraisal gave a clear answer.

"The painting is real!"

After learning that it was true, the curator was already so excited that he couldn't be more excited.

Just when he was excited, the curator came to Father Zhao and said a word.

"Mr. Zhao, I have a request."

"You say!"

"Before we disclose this matter, you cannot publicize this matter to the outside world. Once this matter is publicized, we will sue you. If you agree, we will sign an agreement. You will take back the nine national treasures yourself. If you do not If you agree, then our transaction will be redrawn!" The curator said bluntly.

"No problem!" Zhao's father was happy when he heard the other party's words. At first, he was worried that after the transaction was over, the other party would not give him a chance, and directly announced to the outside world that he had received the third Mona Lisa. Now it's all right, the other party I have to hide it for a while, this is simply the right thing to do, and it has solved a big problem invisibly.

"Okay, happy cooperation!!" The curator didn't expect the other party to be so forthright, so he reached out his hand and started the transaction with great enthusiasm.

For the curator's enthusiasm, Zhao's father flattered him again.

"Okay, John's future hero."

As soon as this flattery came out, the smile on the curator's face was like a blooming chrysanthemum!
