Chapter 118： Live shooting

At six in the afternoon, the royal blue flat-top dining truck drove into the Red Eagle Storage Company.

This meeting has passed working hours, and the employees of the storage company are basically empty. It is very quiet and suitable for treasure hunting.

Ye Tian didn't go to the open-air storage area immediately, but asked Jason to meet with everyone at Sotheby's first, and walked into the storage area in the building by himself. He was going to settle the porcelain warehouse first.

The periphery of the warehouse was quiet, only Bowie was standing expectantly at the door of the warehouse.

At this time, he was very excited, and also very excited. This will be his first warehouse for digging treasure and the beginning of a new and exciting journey.

Of course, he had to wait for Ye Tian to complete the initial cleaning before he could enter the warehouse.

When he walked to the aisle where the warehouse was located, Ye Tian immediately turned his head and looked around. After making sure that there was no one around him, he quickly walked towards the porcelain warehouse.

When they came to the door, the two immediately looked at each other and smiled, and their eyes were full of joy of success and unparalleled confidence.

No greetings, Ye Tian went straight to the subject.

"Boie, open the warehouse. I'll go in and clean it up. You are guarding outside. If someone comes over, remember to remind me immediately and don't expose our relationship!"

"Don't worry, I will be alert!"

Bowie nodded in response, and then opened the shutter door.

"I will speed up, but at most five minutes"

Ye Tian said, then walked into the warehouse and pulled down the rolling door to start the initial cleaning.

Bowie stood with his back to the door of the warehouse, acting seemingly casual, but his eyes were very alert, and he kept watching both sides of the aisle.

Disarray noises soon came from the warehouse, and the cleanup began.

Two or three minutes later.

"Boie, come in to the warehouse!"

Ye Tian's voice came from the warehouse, with a taste of joy.

"Ok!"

Bowie replied excitedly, turned around and pushed the rolling door into the warehouse.

In the warehouse, Ye Tian stood with a smile on his face, and a very delicate wooden box was placed in front of him, not large in size.

"There are treasures in this warehouse, and they are valuable antiques. We made a lot of money!"

Ye Tian pointed to the wooden box and said triumphantly.

"Wow! What baby? Let me see, better explain! I don't know anything about antiques"

While exclaiming, Bowie squatted down, staring at the beautiful box with bright eyes.

There is no doubt that the antique is there!

Ye Tian looked at the door, confirmed that there was no one outside, and then began to show the treasure in the box.

"Cowboy! Please control your emotions, the time for surprise has arrived!"

While talking, Ye Tian reached out and opened the beautiful wooden box.

"Wow! It's porcelain! It's very beautiful, but looking at the decorative style, it doesn't seem to be Chinese porcelain. Is porcelain from other countries very valuable?"

Bowie exclaimed first, then asked curiously.

In the eyes of many people, although there are many countries producing porcelain, when it comes to antique porcelain, it basically refers to Chinese porcelain.

"That's right! This is not Chinese porcelain. It comes from the French official kiln Sèvre, a rococo-style court porcelain. It can be seen from their blue and gold ornamentation with red vetiver iris,..."

Ye Tian affirmed Bowie's judgment, and immediately began to introduce the porcelain in front of him.

The introduction was very short, and soon the most important information, value!

"Bowie, don't think this is just a coffee cup set from the 1920s, but it is definitely worth a lot. Because of its rarity, this set of porcelain is worth at least $500,000."

Ye Tian fingered the porcelain in the wooden box and said the most explosive content.

"Gosh! Half a million dollars, this is more expensive than gold!"

Bowie was stunned, and immediately exclaimed, a look of ecstasy quickly appeared in his eyes.

"Yes! This is indeed more expensive than gold. Seiffel ceramics has always been known as French platinum. US$500,000 is just a conservative estimate, and it may even be higher!"

Ye Tian explained a few words and continued to shock Bowie.

"Awesome! It's crazy to dig out such an expensive antique! I love this profession to death!"

Bowie said incredulously, his face almost bursting into laughter.

"Hahaha, this industry is indeed crazy enough! I should leave, there are still people waiting for me downstairs"

Ye Tian said with a big smile, he was about to leave.

"Okay, go ahead. Just leave it to me here. I contacted the temporary warehouse. The area is not small. Just move these things over. When you come back to find a buyer, when will the family warehouse be cleaned up? Call me. Just call

Bowie's mood recovered and he began to talk about work arrangements.

"This arrangement is good. I believe you can handle it well. The base price of this set of antique porcelain is 500,000 US dollars. On this basis, you can find a suitable buyer. I will not interfere. The more expensive the better.

I will send you a list tonight. The above is the contact information of some second-hand shop owners and antique dealers. You can refer to it. Maybe the buyer of this set of porcelain is among them.

After dealing with the antique furniture warehouse, I will call you. Then we will clean up the family warehouse. Maybe there will be surprises there too. Let us make more money! "

"Don't worry, I will be able to sell this set of antique porcelain at the highest price and make a fortune!"

Bowie patted his chest and said confidently.

At this time, he has completely recovered to his best condition, and compared to the depression some time ago, he is completely different.

The two chatted a few more words, and Ye Tian left here and went straight to the open-air warehouse area downstairs.

...

The three of Jason, David, and Sotheby's were all chatting at the door of the warehouse.

Walking to the door, Jason immediately began to introduce.

"Steven, this is Dennis, the head of Sotheby's antique furniture department. These two are antique furniture appraisal experts, Mario and Bliss. They have been waiting for almost an hour."

Ye Tian shook hands with each other one by one and apologized for being late.

After a few greetings, everyone immediately got to the topic.

"Gentlemen, I don't know much about these two warehouses. Before the auction, I learned that these are two antique furniture warehouses, which have a certain value, so I did it.

Although I photographed the warehouse, I didn't clean it up immediately. Instead, I went to Flushing to participate in another auction and didn't come back here until it was over.

Every piece of furniture here is wrapped, I can't see any content, furniture style, style, age, new and old, materials, etc. I can say that I don't know anything! "

Ye Tian began to introduce the situation in the warehouse.

Hearing this, the faces of Sotheby's are a bit ugly!

You don't understand the situation at all, why did you call us so early?

If it's a bunch of tattered things that are of no value at all, wouldn't we take a trip for nothing?

Although there are some dissatisfaction, the three Sotheby's did not express it clearly.

Ye Tian is now a high-quality customer of Sotheby's. There is no need to worry about small things. Besides, they want to look at the furniture in the warehouse.

Since the original owner kept it so carefully, it shows that there is still a certain value, and it is worth looking forward to!

Ye Tian continued to tell.

"The reason why you are invited here in advance is to let you help me identify these furniture and see if they have the value of the auction?

If you agree that you can make the auction, then I will send it directly, and my lawyer David has also arrived. He will handle the relevant legal matters.

If the value of the furniture is average and cannot be auctioned, then I will pay you the corresponding appraisal fee and will never let you go for nothing! "

The complexion of the three of Sotheby's was instantly cloudy and clear. If you have money, you can say anything!

"Steven, don't wait any longer and open the warehouse. We can't wait to see these antique furniture!"

Dennis said excitedly at once.

"Okay, this is the beginning!"

Ye Tian nodded in response, and then stepped forward to open the warehouse door.

As the rolling shutter door was pushed up, a warehouse full of furniture wrapped in white cloth appeared in front of everyone.

"Gentlemen, please come with me, let's discover the treasure together"

Ye Tian asked for a moment, then took the lead into the warehouse and began to remove the outer packaging.

Sotheby’s three appraisal experts and Jason all followed, and each selected a piece of furniture to start with. Even David participated in it enthusiastically. Everyone likes the treasure hunt!

The white cloth covering the furniture was uncovered one after another, and this batch of precious antique furniture finally reappeared.

Just as Ye Tian expected, cheers of surprise rang from the warehouse.

"Wow! It's so beautiful and luxurious! It's rare walnut furniture, absolutely valuable! This must be a treasure!"

"I like this kind of furniture, it's magnificent and high-grade!"

This is Jason and David, they can see not much.

Sotheby's three experts are different, and these few have a clearer understanding.

"Oh my God! Renaissance style furniture, it must be antique, no doubt!"

Dennis said in surprise, he was about to pounce on the furniture!

"This is not only antique furniture, but also probably related to the royal family. There are not many craftsmen who can make this kind of furniture, and they basically serve the royal family!"

Mario made a supplement for Dennis while carefully identifying.

His eyes shone with the same excitement. For him, these pieces of furniture are the greatest treasures in the world.

"Victorian Renaissance style furniture! I'm sure! And so well-preservedThe package is so complete, it's simply too rare! What a priceless treasure!"

Bliss said categorically, this can be regarded as an appraisal conclusion!

Then, when they found the words on the dining table, they went crazy instantly.

"My God! London, Baron Notting Hill in 1860, this is the real royal furniture!"

"This is a complete set of furniture with a clear heritage. I'm sure we can find relevant textual information in historical documents!"

"Dennis, we have to take down these furniture, they will drive furniture collectors crazy!"

When the three appraisal experts went into madness, Ye Tian, ​​Jason, and David all withdrew from the warehouse and gave the rest of the work to the professionals.

"Steven, you are simply the incarnation of God! How could there be such a lucky person as you? It's incredible!"

David kept sighing, his eyes filled with shock and ecstasy.

While admiring Ye Tian, ​​he was also happy for himself.

As a lawyer, this auction commission contract can also make him a small profit.

Jason was completely stupid. At this time, all green dollars were in his eyes, flying all over the sky, coming towards him.

He knew in his heart that with Steven's generosity, he would definitely make a profit.

It was the first day of the treasure hunt!

Half an hour passed quickly, and the identification of the furniture in this warehouse was nearing completion.

"Steven, go to another warehouse and continue to identify other furniture!"

Dennis walked out of the warehouse and said eagerly, his eyes flushed with excitement.

"Okay, that warehouse is not far away!"

Ye Tian nodded in response, and led Sotheby's three people to the lower warehouse.

The second warehouse opened, and the three of Sotheby's immediately went crazy again.
