America’s Treasure King - Chapter 109
Taking the opportunity of Houllier’s departure, Li Xiaoshuai drove away the idlers standing in front of their door, because there were two more valuable treasures in the warehouse, and he didn’t want irrelevant people to see them.
One is a sword with gold ornaments on the handle and gems embedded in it. Judging from the shape, it should be earlier than the year of the gilt jar, and it is estimated to be something in the early 19th century.
Seeing that there are gold ornaments and gems on the saber, Bo Yang said that these high-value things are absolutely impossible for ordinary soldiers to possess. He estimated that it should be at least a major-general-level saber.
The identification of the ability is the same as the result of his identification.
This general-level sword, Frank estimates, can sell for at least 200,000 US dollars, because this is something used by nobles!
He also said that if the Russian Cossack ordinary cavalry used a saber, it would be worth 5,000 yuan.
There is one more valuable than this, that is a blue and white pottery made in Turkey in the 14th century.
Frank also asked, isn’t blue and white porcelain a special product of your Rabbit Country, and why it is produced in the Middle East again, he is a little confused.
Li Xiaoshuai popularized for him, saying that when you mention blue and white, you think of the porcelain city of the Rabbit Country. In fact, there is a similar place in Turkey in the Middle East. The place was called Avanos, it was a small town.
It is the most famous pottery town in Cappadocia, even in the whole of Turkey, and even in the Middle East! The craftsmanship and pattern design of Avanos pottery have been passed down from generation to generation, and some pottery techniques can even be traced back to the Hittite kingdom.
Later, it was influenced by the export of porcelain from China during the heyday of the Silk Road at the end of the 14th century. Among them, lotus seed bowls, large plates with folded edges, open curved belly plates and pencil boxes are very common in the current Avanos pottery.
And traditional patterns such as grape pattern, bunch lotus pattern, tangled branch, flower and leaf pattern originating from Yuan blue and white porcelain can be often seen in the decoration of Avanos pottery.
To be precise, Cappadocia does not produce china clay, the land actually produces fine pottery, not porcelain. Li Xiaoshuai held up the blue-and-white pottery pot he picked up today and said, “This is the case with this flower watering.”
This is a pure Middle Eastern style flower pot from the shape to the decoration. It has a big belly, a slender neck, an S-shaped handle, and the whole body is painted with tangled flowers.
Frank was a little impatient to hear the popular science forced into his head. Ask directly: “Don’t talk so much nonsense to me, I just want to know how many **** this bottle can sell?”
Li Xiaoshuai: “Don’t look at the ceramics in the Middle East, they are not well-known, but once they appear, they will be sought after by the oil tycoons in the Middle East, and the price will be fired up to sky-high prices. It is common for a bottle to sell for 1.8 million US dollars. thing.”
“ok, then it’s over. Head, you’re cool, and give us a chance to have a good time.”
Li Xiaoshuai laughed and scolded, you are just some lower body animals, full of brains are cool. Good; 200 sanitation fee per person after returning home.
Frank pointed at Li Xiaoshuai’s chest and said, don’t say we are lower body animals, but you are.
“Boyan, you…”
Bo Yang spread his hands and said with a grudge on his face, “Boss, don’t blame me, I really couldn’t sleep well all night because of your noise. And wow, I really admire your couple’s physical fitness. It’s even possible to keep going all night. It’s a pervert.
Li Xiaoshuai was speechless and his face was slightly hot. He scolded Bo Yang for being a psychopath, a **** who eavesdropped on other people’s privacy.
“I will deduct a bonus of 200 yuan, and there will be no medical expenses for tonight!”
Just kidding here, on the other side of the warehouse, Ramos and Nelson, who have also packed up the warehouse, are sitting on the curb smoking a break.
Opposite them, Houllier was busy, imitating the debris warehouse photographed by Li Xiaoshuai. Packs of useless debris piled up the road into a hill, but still didn’t see anything valuable.
On the contrary, there are quite a few rotten sneakers that smell bad. When a small wind blows, the smell spreads around like poison gas, which is disgusting.
Ramos said, have you heard, that Houllier is still a silver medal picker. He jumped up and down to win three warehouses today. He was so busy that he was not as profitable as Li Xiaoshuai’s warehouse.
His son Ferdinand also asked, is Boss Li good luck again?
Ramos said that he heard that four ancient European lacquer wares were built, each of which can be sold for 2,000 US dollars, and he also picked up a pair of very beautiful gilt and silver jars in ancient Russia, which are said to be sold for two more. million.
Jenny was both pleasantly surprised and envious, saying that Boss Li is really a lucky person. Today’s profit is 28,000, and the cost is only 1,000 US dollars, so the profit is huge.
“That’s right,” her husband Nelson continued. Let’s take a look at Houllier, the guy with the silver medal halo. The sum of his three warehouses is not half as much as Boss Li’s profit.
Ferdinand suddenly said, is it true that you say Houllier is a silver medalist? I mean, his identity as a silver medal picker was something he boasted about himself. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
“That’s right, just look at Boss Li’s harvest today, and you can see how fake the identity of the silver medal treasurer is. Such a false name.”
Ramos pondered for a moment and said, why don’t we go back to the Treasure Man Bar and ask Bob to find out, but we want to see if Houllier’s silver medal status is true or not?
The sweaty Houllier, who he never dreamed of, has begun to doubt his level because of his poor record.
On the way home, Li Xiaoshuai, who was sitting in the car, began to make phone calls one by one.
He first called Erickson, who likes to collect military themes, and as soon as the other end got connected, he said if he had figured it out and was willing to sell him the Marshal’s Festival.
Li Xiaoshuai laughed and said, “Don’t even think about it!”
Then he explained the purpose of today’s call, and asked him to pick up a saber used by a general-level officer in Russia in the early 18th century.
After he finished speaking, he sent him the photos he had taken. Taking advantage of Eriksson’s opportunity to look at the photos, he called the general manager of Christie’s auction house again, saying that there was a blue-and-white ceramic pottery from the 14th century in Turkey. If you want to entrust the auction, ask him to come and have a look.
The manager was refreshed when he heard it, and said four words, “It will be there when the time comes!”
The phone hangs up here, and Erickson’s call comes in again, saying that he wants the sword, and that he is working in New York and will come to Li’s house to pick up the goods later.
There is also the Li family’s marshal’s festival, and he has to give him a good eye, otherwise he will not come.
After hanging up the phone, Li Xiaoshuai said to himself, this guy is still a thief, it seems that I have to beware of this guy.
