"You do."
Xu Shaotang slowly looked away from the bronze tripod, looked at Joseph with a smile, and then asked McGovern, "what price are you going to auction this bronze tripod?"
Hearing Xu Shaotang's words, McGovern said: "if Mr. Xu likes it, I will give this bronze tripod to Mr. Xu."
"I don't like people taking advantage of me or others." Xu Shaotang shook his head slightly, "you make a price!"
When Xu Shaotang said this, McGovern fell into a dilemma and quickly cast his eyes to Joseph for help.
He did not know Xu Shaotang, for fear that he would lose his life if he said something wrong.
"Since Mr. Xu asked you to make an offer, you can make an offer."
Joseph said to him with a smile, "don't worry, Mr. Xu is a rich man now. He won't care about a dime."
McGovern hesitated slightly for a while, then carefully said: "originally, I was going to shoot this bronze tripod with 10 million dollars."
"I'll give you 100 million!"
Xu Shaotang light said: "I Xu Shaotang business, has always been the old and young without deception, as long as others do not pit me, I will not pit others."
He knew that McGovern probably said a lot less. Although he didn't study antiques and cultural relics, he still knew that the value of bronze ware was never low. Among them, the bronze ware of tripod type had the highest price. Even if the price was 10 million, the final auction price would not be very low.
Just won 100 billion US dollars from the Roth Family. It doesn't matter if you buy a bronze tripod with 100 million US dollars.
"This..."
McGovern hesitated again, wondering whether to agree.
But Joseph said with a relaxed smile, "since Mr. Xu has said that, you can promise. I know that the Ross family is very short of money now."
More than nervous! That's trillions of dollars! I believe it's a huge pressure on any family.
Otherwise, the Roth Family has accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. I'm afraid they would have gone bankrupt long ago.
"Thank you, Mr. Xu." McGovern carefully wiped the sweat off his forehead. If Joseph hadn't spoken, he wouldn't have dared to take the 100 million.
Xu Shaotang waved his hand and said faintly: "this is a normal business. There's nothing to thank you for! Later, I'll ask someone to transfer the money to Rose's family account. The bronze tripod will be deposited here for the time being, and I'll get it when I leave Xizhou. "
"All right!"
McGovern was not worried that Xu Shaotang would not give him money, so he immediately agreed.
Xu Shaotang slowly inspected the huge collection room, took out his mobile phone and took several pictures of the bronze tripod. Then he continued: "I'll see if you have anything that I'm interested in. If you have any, I'll buy it together."
"Mr. Xu, just look."
Xu Shaotang's price for the bronze tripod is much higher than his heart's. Since Xu Shaotang wants to buy it sincerely, he naturally doesn't need to worry about other things. For him, even if the things here are valuable, they don't have their own life value.
Moreover, if Xu Shaotang's friendship can be exchanged with the things in this collection room, he is willing to give all the things in the collection room to Xu Shaotang.
Xu Shaotang did not hesitate at the moment, and began to quickly check these collections.
The collection of the Roth Family has been scraping for hundreds of years, covering almost all the countries in the world. However, as long as he is not interested in those valuable things, he just glances at them. Even so, it is half an hour after he has roughly passed all the collections in the collection room, which shows that there are many collections here.
"What is this?"
Xu Shaotang walked slowly to a sealed glass box and asked, pointing to the coal ball in the glass box.
The diameter of this coal ball like object is about ten centimeters. The surface is not smooth, but also full of holes. It looks like a coal ball and a round meteorite.
There was nothing that Xu Shaotang was interested in, but when he saw the ball, he had a strange feeling, but he didn't know where it was.
What's more, the collection here is of high value. It seems that there is no special ball to put together with these valuable objects, which is a strange thing.
"This..."
Looking at the ball pointed by Xu Shaotang, McGovern frowned slightly and said, "I don't know what it is. In the past, I heard my grandfather say that it was special, but he didn't know what it was. He simply put it here. For so many years, we don't know what it is or what its value is. If Mr. Xu is interested in it If so, I can give it to you. "
"I said, I don't like to take advantage of others."
Xu Shaotang shook his head.
McGovern took a helpless look at Xu Shaotang and said, "but But we don't know what it is or its value. Even if we want to sell it to Mr. Xu, we don't know the price. ""Well, according to me, since we don't know the value of this thing, Mr. Xu will pay 50 million yuan for this little ball." Seeing McGovern's embarrassment, Joseph proposed with a smile: "it's a small gamble. If it's of high value, Mr. Xu will make a profit. If it's of no value, it doesn't matter if he loses. Anyway, Mr. Xu doesn't lack the money."
50 million to buy a small ball that doesn't even know what it is, it's really not very cost-effective.
But Xu Shaotang had a different feeling about the ball. When he heard Joseph's words, he immediately nodded and agreed.
Anyway, 50 million is not much. If you really lose money, you should send a red envelope to the rose family. After all, it seems that it's not too much for someone else to send a 50 million red envelope as a gift.
In addition to this little ball, Xu Shaotang also bought two calligraphy and paintings along the way.
These are all relics of Xia state, and they are rare in the world. It's better to buy them and donate them to museums than to be exiled in the hands of outsiders.
In addition to these things, there is nothing else for Xu Shaotang to be interested in. After telling McGovern to keep these things for him for the time being, Xu Shaotang asked the Xu family to make a payment to the Ross family. After everything was in order, he sent the picture of the bronze tripod to Kang Weimin, hoping that he could find something different from the bronze tripod.
Soon, he received a phone call from Kang Weimin. Kang Weimin told him that he couldn't see the picture clearly. He asked him to go back to the capital and take the bronze tripod to find him. He also felt that the bronze tripod was unusual.
With Kang Weimin's reply, Xu Shaotang felt that his money was not wasted.
Just as they and Joseph were about to leave, Joseph's phone suddenly rang.
