It is understandable that the British Museum has a strong attitude to reject the pursuit of various countries because of its protection and cherishment of cultural relics.

The problem is that what makes people speechless is that the British Museum's finances have been tight for years, and they do not have enough money to protect these cultural relics. Not only have they damaged many precious cultural relics, but they have also been stolen.

Due to financial problems, the British Museum has no money and has installed anti-theft systems for all display cabinets, so 15 stolen Chinese cultural relics have happened once.

Even though I know that I have no ability, I am willing to return the cultural relics to the original owner. This is no longer shameless.

In fact, to put it bluntly, the British Museum and even the British did not take these plundered cultural relics at all. They were not as they said with great utmost. They were showing off the brilliant world culture, but showing off their brilliant achievements of aggression, and doing the long-breaking dream of the empire of the sun never set!

To be honest, Andy looked down on Britain because of these things. Not only did he suffer because of his face, but he also felt that he had a lot of skills. In fact, he had already declined and stood aside.

Well, Andy's thoughts drifted a little far away. After returning to his senses, he said to Christian: "I know you have studied oracle bone script and are also experts in this regard. Please help me find some to enrich my collection category. No problem."

"Sorry, boss, I can't guarantee this. This is not a matter of money. The key is that the large oracle bones that can be seen now are basically fakes made by the Qing Dynasty in the Celestial and Qing dynasties, and the fakes of authentic products have reached a point where they are fake and real.

There are basically three methods for forging oracle bones. The first type of oracle bone is real, the characters are forged, and the second type conceals the real origin of oracle bones. The third type of oracle bones and characters are both forged. There are basically no genuine oracle bone inscriptions circulating on the market now, and it is very difficult to distinguish.

When I was young, I reorganized a bunch of scattered turtle shells in the Jimei Asian Art Museum and translated the oracle contents. But this was a long time ago, and now I don’t have the ability.”

Christian shook his head helplessly and declined. He also showed regret and a little resentful look on his face for the chaotic market of oracle bones. "This group of fake bastards not only destroyed the market of oracle bones, but the most important thing is that while experts struggle to identify the text, they also have to be very careful to distinguish the authenticity. It even led many people in the Celestial Empire to fundamentally question the authenticity of oracle bones, which is really sad."

Andy shook his head helplessly, and couldn't help but complain in his heart, "Damn, even foreign scholars and experts believe in things that exist, why do the people of the Celestial Empire themselves question and deny it?"

"There is no way. As long as the nature of greed remains unchanged, counterfeiting methods will emerge one after another, and continue to fool and mock human civilization. There are more scientific methods in modern identification of the authenticity of cultural relics. At least carbon 14 can distinguish the age of oracle bones. With your research on oracle bone inscriptions, I believe you can help me find some authentic products. I won't force this, just pay attention."

"Okay, boss, I do my best, but I suggest that the boss can focus on bronzes. Because this is a symbol of power in the Celestial Empire and has more investment and collection value. Moreover, at this time, it is also very cost-effective in terms of the acquisition price." Christian, as an expert in studying oriental cultural relics and bronzes, naturally would not miss this opportunity that could affect his boss's ideas.

Andy naturally knew the status of bronze ware in the Celestial culture. These things are symbols of power and status. In ancient times, even if a commoner was very rich, he was not qualified to have these.

"Yes, then I'll leave it to you. If possible, it's better to have a clear source of origin. There is no illegal export of treasures. Since the heads of the twelve zodiac animals, the national sentiment of the people of the Celestial Empire has been stirred up. I don't want to affect my business in the Celestial Empire because of a few antiques."

When he heard the boss talk about the 12 zodiac beast heads, Christian couldn't help but lit up and suggested: "Boss, the rat head and rabbit head that had caused a lot of controversy some time ago finally ended in a farce. These two things returned to the hands of the original owner. If you are interested, you can buy them."

"I'm not interested, it's just two copper faucets. The only value is a little historical value. The so-called "national treasure" artistic value is completely unremarkable. Would you spend tens of millions of euros to buy a fountain head of the Palace of Versailles?

The tricks of those auction houses are nothing more than to stir up the national sentiment of the Celestial Empire and make the rich people of the Celestial Empire suckers. To be honest, the open tricks of "second looting" are very shameless! Whoever lives will understand what they want," Andy said with contempt.

"The refusal to pay has attracted great attention in France, and multiple 24-hour TV channels have been broadcasting this news. Although the matter has been over, the business of Christie's and even the Pino family in the Celestial Empire will be greatly affected, but the other party's refusal to pay has also caused a very bad impact and its reputation will be severely hit. In the future, the Celestial Empire will probably be required to pay a deposit when attending overseas auctions." Christian shook his head and said.

Andy narrowed his eyes slightly, and his fingers began to quickly tap the table of Napoleon's used table, making a thud. He knew that in the end, the Pino family bought these two beast heads and donated them to the Tian Dynasty as public relations gifts for free. It has to be said that these shameless French people are well aware of the principle that the person who has to tie the bells is required, and they are also a win-win situation.

In that case, Andy had to intervene and blackmail the French. "In this way, you can ask someone to negotiate these two beast leaders. Of course, the price is definitely not 14 million euros each at the auction at that time. I will buy them in the name of an offshore company. I am going to make a quick money with them!"

fishing!

That's right, Andy was preparing to fish, fishing the French who had to ease relations with the Celestial Empire. Since the French wanted to rob them again, Andy Smith could hit the French well.

Corporate public relations and diplomacy break the ice, the French will find that there is no gift that can match these two beastly heads!

When Christian heard the boss suddenly change his mind, he was slightly stunned at first, but he soon realized that the boss was going to secretly acquire these two things. "Okay boss, as for the price, boss, you can rest assured that these two beast heads are not bidding for by the Celestials, each one is only a few million euros. Now these two things are really a source of trouble in the hands of the original owner. In order to get rid of the trouble, I think they are willing to sell them."

"Well, that's good. This matter is handled secretly, don't expose me." Andy instructed...

Looking at Christian's back as he left, Andy's mouth curled up slightly. He was very satisfied with the good things his team took back. Not to mention, plus the six or seven hundred antiques he had, he also had more than a thousand antiques in his hand. The museum could not be opened, but it was no problem to enrich a large showroom.

After looking through the antique album that now belongs to him, he closed it, his smile on his face calmed down, and he took another book about the Celestial Arts Artifacts he asked Christian to prepare.

Looking at the photos of some precious national treasure-level cultural relics such as mother-of-pearl, red and white hibiscus, and the Tang model version of "Sangluan Tie" above, and the Tang model version "Sangluan Tie" that is considered closest to Wang Xizhi's original work, a cold light flashed in Andy's eyes.

It is impossible to buy it with money. You will never buy it with money in your life!

So, I can only think of some other solutions!
