Chapter 869

The bronze statue of the animal head of the twelve zodiac animals in the Yuanmingyuan was originally part of the fountain outside the Haiyan Hall of the Yuanmingyuan. It was a red bronze statue during the reign of Emperor Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty. In 1860, the British and French allied forces invaded China, burned the Old Summer Palace, and the bronze statue of animal head began to lose overseas.

Haiyan hall, a historic site of Yuanmingyuan, was built in 1759“ The word "Haiyan" means "the river is clear and the sea is peaceful"《 Wen Yuan Ying Hua, Zheng Xi of Tang Dynasty, and Wang Zi Fu in Japan: "the river is clear, the sea is calm, and the years are abundant." the river is the Yellow River; Yan, calm“ He Qing Hai Yan "is also called" Hai Yan He Qing ", which means that the water flow of the Yellow River is clear and the sea is calm. This phrase is used as a metaphor for peace in the world and has the auspicious meaning of praising world peace. This is also the name of the "Haiyan hall", a practical ornamental building in the Chinese Royal Garden Yuanmingyuan. The essence of this building is known as the twelve bronze statue of the zodiac.

The animal head was designed by Lang shining, a Jesuit priest in China. He represented 24 hours of the day with the twelve zodiac signs of the animal head. Each bronze statue sprayed water in turn, which was a wonder.

Baozixuan clearly remembers his previous life. In 1985, an American antique dealer accidentally found the bronze statue of the horse head in the Old Summer Palace in a private house in California, together with the bronze statues of the ox head and the tiger head. The antique dealer bought the three copper heads at a low price of $1500 each.

Of course, he can't take advantage of others. He wants to find the twelve animal heads of the Yuanmingyuan through his own hands. In the future, it can be put in the black cloud Museum, which is a good thing for the country.

You know, the prices of Yuanmingyuan animal heads auctioned in future generations are more and more expensive. And it's growing exponentially. Now it's time to spend a little money on big things.

Before coming to Los Angeles, baozixuan had arranged for people from heiyun California branch to start looking for it. Kung Fu pays off. You will soon find the horse's head.

But there is one thing that makes baozixuan very puzzled. In the past 85 years, antique merchants traded for $1500. I don't know what's going on. The owner just doesn't want to sell it. And knowing that the other party is an employee of heiyun group, he has to come to the door in person.

Hearing that heiyun employees wanted to buy, he asked baozixuan to come to the door in person. What logic is this? Black cloud employees dare not agree. After all, the boss's schedule is very full, and they can't do such little things well, and their ability is also problematic; Only reply will report the seller's request.

To the employees' surprise, the boss actually agreed to meet with the seller. Just a few taps. I didn't expect the boss to like it.

With the identity and status of Bao's richest man, you can see these red bronze animal heads. It can be seen that this thing is by no means simple. In fact, no one is stupid. If you are just an ordinary antique dealer, the seller may not offer a sky high price. But who let the people who work expose their identity? It seems that they can't do things too high-profile. Especially the people below, we should really restrain them.

Too high-profile and arrogant, it is easy for people to kill when they are wronged. We all know that baozixuan has money and heiyun group has strength. If you want to buy good things in the future, you must spend a high price. It seems that some things really can't let American employees come forward. They don't know the rules of antiques at all.

Since you want to get Yuanmingyuan objects, and people are in Los Angeles. It's impossible to hide. The gossip media have reported that Bao Shoufu came to Hollywood to secretly meet his lover.

Many American gossip media reported that baozixuan, Xiangjiang's richest man, came to Hollywood to meet his lover. The woman is a beautiful star Phoebe Katz with Chinese descent, and she still has the kind of picture and truth, which is very reliable.

Baozixuan also thought that the media would report wantonly, but he didn't expect the report to be so absurd. I had to call EVA Bowman and ask her to say sorry. You should apologize for causing trouble to other girls.

But at this time, Phoebe Katz didn't think so, and her agent followed suit. This is a good opportunity to increase popularity. It's no shame to have a relationship with baozixuan.

At this time, the agent is planning how to maximize the benefits. After all, several film companies are looking for her. They all want to take advantage of this heat. Capital has a strong sense of and control over information.

These steamed stuffed buns Xuan has ignored them. At this time, he has been delayed for a long time. We can't waste time. We should hurry back to Detroit in the shortest time. George Patton military vehicle also needs him to preside over the design, which may be too late for others to make progress.

Since he decided to look for the twelve beast hands of the Yuanmingyuan, the seller also asked him to come forward. Steamed stuffed bun Xuan did not hesitate to come to the seller's house, which made the couple feel incredible.

I didn't expect that baozixuan would really come. Before, it was more of a joke and temptation. Seeing that the super rich attached so much importance to it, the seller and his wife knew that they would make a fortune this time. With baozixuan's financial resources, he doesn't care about tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.

The seller is a middle-aged couple. The neighbors nearby call the male owner Garcia, which is a big surname in the United States.

Seeing baozixuan coming in, the host said enthusiastically, "I'm very sorry to let Mr. Bao run in person. No other meaning, just simply want to see you; It can also be regarded as having a conversation in front of friends. "

That's what they say, but no one will believe it. It must also be to sell more money, and there was no intersection before. Baozixuan has not reached the point of everyone's worship.

Bao Zixuan smiled and said, "I happened to be in Los Angeles in recent days. I'll come and have a look by the way. You're welcome, Mr. Garcia. How much do you want for three things. As long as it's not too much. Black cloud can take over and won't let you suffer. "

This transaction amount, Bao Shoufu should not have come forward. But who let American employees screw things up? This kind of negotiation, which is obviously regarded as a big grievance, is really uncomfortable.

Garcia: "Mr. Bao is a super rich. He won't let us suffer. You can pay as much as you say. I will never raise the price. "

This move has retreated into advance, but it's very cruel. As long as baozixuan has a face. Certainly won't take advantage of ordinary people, which is Garcia's confidence.

The price of each animal head in the previous life was $1500, and it was two years later. But now it's baozixuan, one of the richest people in the world. The other party is certainly not satisfied with the price, and I can't afford to lose that person in person.

Bao Zixuan said with a smile, "everyone is smart. Mr. Garcia feels how much this thing is worth. You can quote. If I'm not satisfied with the price, you just said it again. In order not to suffer losses, we should follow the rules. "

Knowing what steamed stuffed bun Xuan means, Garcia and his wife said after communicating: "Mr. Bao is a busy man, and we dare not take you too long; How about $20000 per animal head. "

This price has been carefully considered. If it is too high, it will be deceptive. Baozixuan will hold fire even if he buys it back. The couple can't afford to move their fingers.

Now the price is very reasonable. If it is too low, it will look down on the super rich baozixuan.

Although the purchase price of antique merchants has increased by more than 10 times compared with previous generations, who makes Bao the richest man come forward to buy it!

Bao Zixuan: "just do as Mr. Garcia said. Next, the staff will deal with it."

Seeing that baozixuan was leaving, Garcia hurriedly said, "Mr. Bao, we have made it now. Can you tell me what this is for and let me understand. "

"At the same time, I'm also very curious about how you know we have these animal heads in our family."

Fortunately, baozixuan was ready and said with a smile, "these animal heads are Chinese cultural relics, and the level is not very high. Therefore, art is of little value. However, because the place is famous, it has certain value. I just want to build a museum, which can be regarded as making the best use of everything. "

"In fact, it's not just you. I collect cultural relics all over the world. The museum needs a lot of cultural relics and is now fully collecting them. If you are interested, you can look for it and sell it to me at a high price. You will never suffer. "

This explanation is very reasonable. At least the Garcias can't find anything wrong. With the financial resources and strength of baozixuan, it is normal to set up a museum. It's no surprise that most museums in the United States are donated by the rich.

As for being able to find things in their home, it is also very normal. Steamed stuffed bun Xuan is so rich that there are no fewer people working for him. It is normal to investigate their family.

Although it cost tens of thousands of dollars, these are small things. It's worth it to get three Yuanmingyuan animal heads.

The purchase of three treasures opened the treasure hunt for baozixuan to purchase the animal head of Yuanmingyuan. This century's Yuanmingyuan cultural relics are destined to belong to heiyun group. Who let Bao the richest man start first? Collectors and enterprises in mainland China have not accumulated much capital at this time.

The staff were arranged to send the three animal heads back to Xiangjiang. Baozixuan flew to Detroit by special plane, where he wanted to develop a new military vehicle. Even if he failed to win the bid, he would also add some congestion to the U.S. military and other automobile manufacturers.
