Originally, I was just looking at the goods today, but Ye Dongqing had already expressed the intention of buying it on the spot, which made the middleman Mr. Beckenbauer very diligent and specially called the owner of the castle, Brooke III Seymour.

When he learned that a potential American high-ranking chef was also here, the guy came over to say hello with great enthusiasm.

During the visit, Ye Dongqing had already understood the rough passage from other people's discussions. It turned out that the descendants of Marshal Seymour liked horses, especially various famous horses. They once went to the inland to buy Ahartekin horses, which cost a lot of money. They also liked to bet on horses in Xiangjiang, and spent most of the year in Xiangjiang.

Ye Dongqing also has a few horses in her manor.

Little Edward gave him a few horses on his 20th birthday, and his quality and bloodline were OK. It is said that he spent more than two million US dollars in total. Richard later selected three horses from his stable and sent them directly to the island. They were all mixed-blood horses. For this reason, two horse trainers were specially recruited to help take care of them.

It is already pretty good, at least it won't make those who know the knowledgeable. However, compared with Brooke III, the horse-loving horse farm, his billionaire's horse farm has become a small fuss. Some time ago, someone said that in order to buy an Arab horse, this guy actually spent more than 6 million US dollars a while ago and successfully defeated all the inheritance left by his father before his death.

Hundreds of antiques have been released before, and they were bought by a museum in Xiangjiang. The money seems to be used to bet on horseback, only to suppress your own horse, and the more you lose, the less you win.

This is probably the case. Ye Dongqing accidentally heard some inside stories and did not mean to ask carefully.

Occasionally, he would feel relaxed, but his interest in tennis is better than raising horses. He was not prepared to learn from this guy to raise some first-class horses. To be honest, Ye Dongqing is already a relatively home-based type among the rich, such as going to bars, attending parties, etc., which is nothing in his circle.

It is precisely because of his few interests and hobbies that he had the idea of ​​building the Cobra Building and was ready to implement it directly. People always like to do something they like to do when they are alive, such as witnessing the completion of a strange tallest building in New York.

End introduction to each other.

Brook III, Little Brook III, asked: "Have you found the antiques you like? If you are not satisfied with my database, there are more, Mr. Beckenbauer has told me that you can take away as long as the price is right. Last year, the water pipes in the database broke, a few ancient carpets and a batch of books were even moldy, and I no longer want to keep holding them."

At first glance, it was a person who was not good at doing business. These words had already given Ye Dongqing a reason to lower the price.

He could guess why the descendants of Marshal Seymour's family only released 200 pieces, probably because they were afraid that too many were released at once, which would lead to a collapse in the international trading market of China's antiques to some extent. If thousands of pieces were sold at the same time, the consequences could be imagined, and it would be difficult to find a buyer who would eat this batch of goods in a short time.

"You can go and have a look, but I have to wait for other appraisers to come and help me choose. Funding is definitely not a problem. As long as you have good things, I can buy them today."

Ye Dongqing replied that although she had never been involved in antique transactions, she could guess that there were not many opportunities to purchase antiques in large quantities like shopping in supermarkets like this.

If you go to the auction house to pick things, the handling fee and the purchase of Chengdu are astonishingly high, there is no need to give money to those auction institutions for nothing unless it is something you really like, such as the "Star and Moon Night" hanging in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, which was written by Van Gogh. It seems that he has never been auctioned since his release. Even if he pays 100 million US dollars, he is happy to buy it.

"Okay, I'll be upstairs, and I'll let the housekeeper notify me at that time." Little Brooke III seemed a little listless. If he hadn't known Ye Dongqing's wealth, he wouldn't have gone downstairs to receive him. He was about to go back to his room to make up for his sleep. A mare gave birth last night, which ruined him. Unfortunately, the little pony died shortly after he was born, and the 400,000 pounds of mating fee was wasted...

************

"This...this...this...our ancestors have too many things! These robbers have emptied the Old Summer Palace!?"

More than two hours have passed, and Ye Dongqing has just gone down to the basement of Seymour Manor Castle with them. The air is still dry. Several machines are removing moisture from the air so that the collections in the database can have a good storage environment.

An old Chinese man who came to communicate with the British Museum screamed after seeing the things in the database because a huge dragon chaise was placed next to it. The color was obviously made of golden nanmu, representing the highest craftsmanship among the wooden pieces. At that time, the chairs that symbolized imperial power were called dragon chaises, not just one. The emperor often worked on holidays, so he could not carry the bulky dragon chaises everywhere.

When Ye Dongqing heard these experts talk about it, she realized that the dragon throne looked like this. Then she heard another middle-aged fat man in his forties whispering: "Isn't it just emptying and finally setting a fire? You're a little bit lighter, this isn't in the Forbidden City!"

The official level of communication would cause any conflicts. The fat man coughed dryly and looked at the old appraiser Neil and the little Brooke III with his face with a sleeping mark. He felt relieved when he saw them confused.

There is no reason to fan the flames, Ye Dongqing explained in English: "They are praising your collections. After all, few people can collect so much from Chinese history, just like coming to a museum."

When I lived in Xiangjiang, Brooke III, it was enough to speak English. After a few years of returning, the English popularity there was quite high. I didn’t understand the meaning of “robber” at all. I also said happily: “Thank you very much, my great-grandfather used two ships to transport this batch of things back. I left a photo before, but I don’t know where it was placed.”

He was proud, which made Ye Dongqing feel that he was owed to the point of being flattered, so he pretended to be a translator and explained: "His ancestor was Marshal Seymour, and there shouldn't be much trouble for the things. Please help me pick some quality products. Don't show surprise or excitement or other expressions, otherwise it would be difficult for me to talk about the appropriate price."

"Seimore, the one who commanded the coalition forces at that time, right? British Marshal? Grandma, don't worry, you must pick out all the good things and put them in the hands of overseas Chinese, it's better than in their hands!" The fat man named Gao smiled on his face, but the words he said were nothing worth laughing about.

Ye Dongqing once again translated it to Brook III: "They said that this chair is very good and is still intact. So let's start now. I will pick it out first and then talk about the price. I will definitely give some discounts in batches, right? You and I are both at a disadvantage when you send it to auction, and there are too many things to sell. People who like Chinese antiques are just that. I want to use them to decorate my mansion, which looks more connotative..."
