After stopping and walking, Ye Tian and the others came to the door of an antique shop again, but they had a closed door.

The door of this antique shop is tightly locked, and there are many people watching the excitement on both sides of the door, including some antique dealers and shop assistants who have seen before.

Obviously, the owner of this antique shop was afraid of being looted by Ye Tian and simply closed the shop directly, leaving him unable to start.

But how did this Egyptian antique dealer know that for Ye Tian, ​​the effect of closing the store is the same. If he wants to looting the antique store, he can ask for anything!

This scene in front of us made everyone feel a little surprised!

After a short pause, Ye Tian showed a disdainful smile on his face, and then said loudly:

"If the other antique shops we are going to do in the future are like this, it would be disappointing if we choose to thank customers behind closed doors! This is the prestigious Harley market, and I would not expect this to happen!"

Following his remarks, almost all the Egyptians at the scene turned red with embarrassment!

Especially those Egyptian antique dealers who were on the scene, as if they were slapped in the face in public, their cheeks were sore, and even a little embarrassing!

Ahmed, standing next to Ye Tian, ​​and the Egyptian cultural relics policeman were also very embarrassed, and their teeth tickled with hatred!

It's really shameful to raise the white flag before fighting!

"Hahaha"

David and the others all laughed, and some tourists from other countries were also laughing at the scene, looking like the excitement is not too big!

With people's laughter, the many Egyptians on the scene suddenly became more embarrassed!

Ahmed and their performance were all seen in Ye Tian's eyes. He accepted it as soon as he saw it, and he did not continue to stimulate the self-esteem of these Egyptians!

Next, they continued to move forward and went straight to the next antique shop.

Fortunately, the owner of the next antique shop still has a bit of vigor, and he didn't lock the door tightly and hung up the free card, which made Ahmed and the others breathe out a sigh.

When they came to the door of this antique shop, Ye Tian and the others quickly looked at the door and the surrounding environment, and then walked into this antique shop!

In a blink of an eye, it was already around six in the afternoon.

At this time, the streets in the Khalili Market selling antique art and Egyptian handicrafts, as if they had been hit by a hurricane, were already a sorrow!

In the past few hours, Ye Tian and the others have visited dozens of antique shops of different sizes. In some of them, many antique cultural relics and works of art have been swept away.

The owners and clerk of those antique shops, as well as people who watch the excitement, do not know the true origin and value of those antique cultural relics and works of art.

However, when Ye Tian took the antique cultural relics and works of art by various means, everyone was sure that the antique cultural relics and works of art carried away by him must be very valuable, and there are even valuable treasures!

Compared with their true value, the selling price of those antique cultural relics and works of art is estimated to be a huge difference, which is completely negligible!

Thinking of this, all the Egyptians who witnessed all this felt a burst of heartache!

As for the antique dealers who were ransacked wildly, they almost fainted with heartache, even if they still don't know the true value of the antique cultural relics and works of art they sold!

If you let them know that in the next few days, and even in the next few days, there will be people who will continue to come to the house with messages sent by Ye Tian to clean up, it is estimated that they will have the heart to die!

There were so many goods that Ye Tian cleaned up, so that the employees of the company who followed them could not hold it.

Everyone can only buy some metal suitcases in the market, put those antique cultural relics and artworks into the suitcases, and pull them one by one. This has become a spectacle!

With the passage of time, a catastrophe is taking place in the Khalili market, which has become the consensus of everyone, and it has also shaken the entire Egyptian antique art collection circle!

And the person who caused this catastrophe, Ye Tian, ​​was in a small antique shop at this time, admiring and checking a very strange thing!

This is a statue of Anubis, the **** of death in ancient Egyptian mythology.

To be precise, it was a black pottery statue made by firing, slightly larger than the real one, standing against the wall on the floor of the antique shop, exuding a weird atmosphere, even looking a little gloomy.

Anubis, the **** of death in ancient Egyptian mythology, is the son of an affair between Pluto Osiris and the patron of the dead Nefertis.

Its image is the head of a jackal, and is sometimes described as a jackal wearing a ribbon.

Under normal circumstances, Anubis is covered in black all over, with blue-faced fangs, symbolizing death and rebirth. It often appears at the door and inside of the pharaoh's tomb, guarding the pharaoh's tomb.

The statue of Anubis in front of me is all black, with a flail in his right hand and the key of life in his left. It is relatively well preserved, but the carving is relatively rough and the level of craftsmanship is average!

There is of course a reason why this statue of Anubis is very strange.

First of all, this is a black pottery statue, not a carved stone statue. It is relatively fragile and can easily be damaged!

Such a **** pottery statue, if it comes from ancient Egypt, can be preserved almost completely to the present, it can be said to be a miracle!

What is even more surprising is that although this statue of Anubis was burnt in a satisfactory manner and generally not bad, the manufacturing method was relatively rough, and it could not be compared with those exquisite statues from the tombs of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs!

Another point is that in addition to a few ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs and patterns on this statue of Anubis, there is a line of French engraved on Anubis's neck, as well as a period number, 1802.

This is puzzling. If this is an Anubis statue from ancient Egypt, why is there an age in French and Arabic numerals?

Looking at this peculiar statue of Anubis, Ye Tian couldn't help but fall into contemplation, as were David, Ahmed and others at the scene, everyone was at a loss.

Compared with them, the antique shopkeeper standing on the side has a much more relaxed expression without any psychological pressure, and even a disdainful smile appeared in his eyes.

Obviously, the antique shop owner knew the origin of this Anubis statue and also knew its value, so he was so relaxed!

After pretending to appreciate it for a while, Ye Tian turned his head to look at the owner of the antique shop, and said in surprise:

"Mr. Adel, if I read correctly, this black pottery statue of Anubis does not come from ancient Egypt, but a fake made by the French in the early nineteenth century. The French and the date on it are evidence.

After Napoleon ruled Egypt briefly in 1801, he was defeated by the British and evacuated from Egypt. By 1802, the evacuation was completed. There were very few French in Egypt. Who made this black pottery statue?

There is another thing I don’t quite understand. Why did the French make the statue of Anubis? Even if they didn't know that Anubis was the **** of death in ancient Egyptian mythology, they could tell the clue only from the appearance!

Such a black statue of the **** of death looks creepy~www.novelhall.com~ I think few people would like to collect such a thing, not to mention this is a fake, its value is even lower! I don't quite understand! "

Hearing what he said, the antique shop owner named Adel couldn't help but froze for a moment, and did not immediately respond.

After a while, he woke up, the disdain in his eyes disappeared instantly, and replaced by an expression of admiration.

"Your vision is too sharp, Mr. Steven, you really deserve it! You see it right, this is indeed a fake made by the French in the early nineteenth century, not a statue from ancient Egypt.

I collected this black pottery statue of Anubis from the "City of the Dead" in Cairo. It was originally placed at the entrance of a tomb and guarded the tomb. According to the epitaph, the tomb is more than two hundred years old. History!

Because some poor people from other areas lived in the tomb-keeper's room next to the tomb. They thought this Anubis statue was an eye-catcher, so I planned to sell it. I happened to run into this black pottery sculpture and accepted this black pottery sculpture until now!

After accepting this black pottery sculpture, I have conducted an appraisal with experts and scholars. The appraisal conclusions given by everyone are highly consistent, just like what you just said. This is a fake made by the French in the early 19th century!

Why did the French make such a sculpture? Perhaps it is not difficult to understand that their intention is probably to use this sculpture of the **** of death Anubis to guard the tomb, so they placed this sculpture in front of the tomb."

"It turns out that if the French used Anubis to guard the tomb, they would have said it in the past!"

Ye Tian continued to say, with a dazed expression.

Before waiting for a response from the antique shop owner, he went on to say:

"Mr. Adel, although this black pottery statue of Anubis is a fake, it is a bit interesting. You can set a price. I intend to accept this thing for fun!"
