In front of Ye Tian's eyes, there are a total of five Chinese antique artworks, three porcelains, and two paintings and calligraphy works.

The three porcelains are a pair of Yongle yellow-glazed blue-and-white folded flower pattern plates, and a Southern Song Hutian kiln shadow celadon pot.

They are extremely rare fine porcelains, no matter the artistic value or the market value, they are all extraordinary!

The two paintings and calligraphy works are all from the Ming Dynasty.

A cursive calligraphy post by Dong Qichang, and a large freehand landscape painting by Xu Wei with splash ink, which can be called the best of the best, the beauty is thrilling!

These treasures are all packed in a portable safe. The safe is on the conference table and has been opened, showing the treasures in front of everyone.

Through perspective, Ye Tian had already seen these five top Chinese antique artworks thoroughly and thoroughly grasped their situation without any omission.

Now he is just acting like a fake.

When he got closer, he first took out a pair of white gloves and put it on, then carefully took out Dong Qichang's cursive post from the safe, took it in his hand and opened it slowly, and admired it.

This is the Fa Tie written by Dong Qichang himself. Ye Tian firmly believes in this!

In his eyes, this Fa Tie radiates a dazzling and beautiful orange light, which accurately reveals its age. This is a calligraphy work with a history of more than 400 years.

The fascinating halo of more than a dozen layers of fascinating fascinating texts shows that it has extraordinary artistic value and is definitely an outstanding work of the top calligrapher!

Of course, its market value is also quite expensive!

In addition, the seal of "Xiangguang Jushi" on the Fa Tie is also sufficient to explain its identity.

The preservation of the Fa Tie is quite good, except for the vicissitudes of life left by the long years, there is no damage.

It can be seen that every generation of the owner of this Fa Tie cherishes this top calligraphy work very much and has taken care of it so that it has been preserved in a nearly perfect state until now.

Time is limited. Ye Tian didn't carefully appreciate and study the calligraphy and seals on the Fa Tie. Right now, he just walked through the scene. You don't need to be so serious. There will be time to appreciate later.

After a quick glance, he immediately gave an identification conclusion.

"Yes, this is indeed the calligraphy work of Master Dong Qichang in the Ming Dynasty. It was created in the late Wanli period, in the beginning of the seventeenth century. At that time, his calligraphy had reached its peak.

This calligraphy work should be regarded as one of Dong Qichang's masterpieces. It has extraordinary artistic value and can be called a top calligraphy work. I like it very much and want to include it in my bag! "

With that said, Ye Tian had gently closed the calligraphy work and put it back in the safe again.

"Ah! The appraisal is over so soon? That's an exaggeration!"

Brandon exclaimed, staring at Ye Tian dumbfounded, eyes full of incredible.

The rest of the Gardner Museum is the same, they are all a bit dumbfounded, who has ever seen such an identification of antique art? Did it take a minute?

Joey and the art crime team were also frightened by the lightning speed of identification. They are semi-professionals, and they have never seen such a monster!

David and Matisse looked the same as usual. They hadn't seen this kind of thing once or twice, and they had long been accustomed to it!

In their opinion, no matter what magical things happen to Steven, it is normal, because that is a magical guy who can do nothing!

"Ha ha ha, Brandon, don't be surprised! This is the charm of Chinese calligraphy. The characters written by a calligraphy master must contain his unique spirit and life insights, others can't learn it!

This is the same principle with painting. No matter how clever copying works, it will not copy the artist's mood and thoughts when he created this painting. This is the foundation of creation and the most precious part of art.

As far as I know, this calligraphy has been collected in the Gardner Museum for more than 100 years. More than 100 years ago, China was in troubled times, and there was smoke everywhere! It is also difficult for anyone to produce such a high-level fake! "

Ye Tian explained with a smile, this reason sounds reasonable and should be able to get through.

Even if these guys don't believe me, what can they do? The initiative is entirely in the hands of the buddies, what you say is what you love, and whoever loves you!

"You are right. Any piece of art has its own unique charm and temperament. It is difficult for fakes to do this! But the identification speed of your fellow is really scary. I have never seen it anyway!"

Brandon obviously agreed with Ye Tian's statement, but he still sent two sentences with emotion.

Next, Ye Tian picked up the painting in the safe next to him, Xu Wei's splash ink landscape painting, and began to appreciate and appraise it.

As before, within half a minute of unfolding the painting, he gave the most accurate identification conclusion, once again shocking everyone in the conference room.

After appraising the calligraphy and painting works, he immediately took off his gloves and began to appraise three top antique porcelains.

One thing to say here, when appraising or appreciating porcelain, don't wear gloves! Barehands are the safest. Wearing gloves will only increase the risk, and there is no benefit!

If you see an expert appraising porcelain wearing gloves, then you turn around and leave immediately. This so-called porcelain appraisal expert is 100% a liar! no doubt!

Of course, except when the police investigate and collect evidence.

For example, in the underground palace of the Old North Church, in order not to damage the fingerprint information stored on the antique artwork, everyone must wear gloves!

Appraisal and appreciation of paintings and calligraphy works are just the opposite. If possible, it is best to wear a mask and gloves, this is to prevent sweat and saliva from splashing on the paintings and calligraphy works!

The identification of the three antique porcelains was also fast, but the exclamation in the conference room had disappeared and was never heard again.

Brandon and the guys in the FBI's art crime team are already numb, where they are still exclaiming!

In their eyes, Ye Tian was directly included in the ranks of non-human beings, and could not be judged by common sense at all!

These three antique porcelains, like the previous two paintings and calligraphy works, are the Chinese collection of the Gardner Museum. Each of them is authentic, with extraordinary artistic value and considerable market value!

After the appraisal was over, Ye Tian sat back in his seat again, smiled at the guys opposite and said:

"Gentlemen, these Chinese antique works of art you have brought are very good, each one is a rare top item, I am honored to see them here!

I like these Chinese antique works of art very much, and I want to put them in my bag and turn them into my own collection. Now we can start trading, and hope that the results will be great! "

"Awesome! Steven, let's get started!"

Brandon said excitedly, with a big smile on his face.

Before he finished his words, he quickly opened his briefcase, took out two pre-written checks from it, and pushed them in front of Ye Tian.

"Steven, as we agreed in the contract, this is a cash check of 300 million U.S. dollars and a high reward of 20 million U.S. dollars announced in the media.

There are also these five top Chinese antique works of art, as well as the stolen 3200-year-old Chinese bronze ‘Gob’, in exchange for five antique works of art that originally belonged to us! "

Ye Tian probed the two checks not far in front of him, and then joked:

"It seems that I underestimated you, Brandon. I didn't expect the Gardner Museum to be so rich, so I immediately took out 320 million U.S. dollars.

Maybe I'm still too kind! The asking price is too low. I had known that you would spend such a large sum of money so easily. I should have asked for more at the beginning. I think you will agree! "

Hearing this, Brandon raised his eyebrows, and laughed out loudly and cursed:

"Don't even think about it! You greedy fellow! You think it's easy for us to take out this money, which is 320 million US dollars in cash! For any museum, it is an astronomical figure!

Not only are there funds for us to purchase antique artworks in the next few years, but also the income from the transfer of some artworks. In the past few days, we have sold more than a dozen artworks in stock!

But this is far from enough. The shortfall is jointly funded by museum sponsors and trustees~www.novelhall.com~ This is enough to make up 320 million US dollars in cash to satisfy your bastard's greedy appetite!

In the next few years, we at the Gardner Museum must tighten our belts and even continue to sell part of the stock art in order to maintain the normal operation of the museum!

To be honest, you are definitely the cruelest and most greedy **** I have ever seen! How can there be a guy like you in the field of antique art collection! It was unprecedented! "

"Ah! It's so miserable! It's really beyond my expectation. Otherwise, in order not to affect the normal operation of your museum, I won't want the check for 300 million US dollars, and only accept 20 million US dollars.

But what about Rembrandt’s "Storm on the Sea of ​​Galilee" and his self-portrait, and Manet’s "Chez Tortoni"? This arrangement is very reasonable, and it doesn't matter if I suffer a bit! "

Ye Tian exclaimed pretentiously, and then continued to joke.

He was very sure that Brandon would never agree to this exchange.

Three hundred million dollars is the price of "Storm of Galilee", not even enough! What's more, how can Brandon agree to the other two top famous paintings? Unless your head squeezes the door!

as predicted!

As soon as Ye Tian's voice fell, Brandon immediately exploded.

"Dreaming! This is impossible! I have found out, you **** is definitely the biggest robber in the world, you are extremely greedy!

Hurry up and make a deal. Sitting opposite you, I have a creepy feeling. It's better to leave here early, so as not to be calculated by your kid! "

"Hahaha"

The meeting room immediately burst into laughter.

The laughter fell and the transaction began.

In the next time, it is time for David and the others to play. Ye Tian is only responsible for signing the relevant documents and collecting the check for the 320 million US dollars!
