Chapter 118 On-site shooting(1/2)

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the royal blue flat-headed dining car drove into the Red Eagle Storage Company.

Working hours have passed, and the warehousing company employees have basically gone empty, very quiet, and are suitable for treasure hunting.

Ye Tian did not go to the open-air warehouse area immediately, but asked Jason to meet Sotheby's first, and walked into the warehouse area inside the building. He was going to solve the porcelain warehouse first.

The surrounding area of ​​the warehouse was very quiet, only Bowie stood at the door of the warehouse with anticipation.

He was very excited and excited at this time. This would be his first warehouse to enter the treasure dig and the beginning of a fresh and exciting journey.

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

After walking to the aisle where the warehouse is located, Ye Tian immediately turned around and looked around. After confirming that there was no one around and no attention, he quickly walked towards the porcelain warehouse.

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

There was no polite greetings, Ye Tian got straight to the topic.

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

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

Bowie nodded and then opened the roller shutter door.

"I will speed up, at most, only five minutes."

Ye Tian said, then walked into the warehouse, pulled down the roller shutter door and started the first cleaning.

Bowie stood with his back to the warehouse door, his movements seemed to be inadvertent, but his eyes were very alert, and he kept observing both sides of the aisle.

A messy sound soon came from the warehouse and the cleaning work began.

Two or three minutes later.

"Bowi, come in!"

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

"OK!"

Bowie responded excitedly, turned around and pushed up the roller shutter door and entered the warehouse.

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

"There are treasures in this warehouse, and they are valuable antiques, so we made a big profit!"

Ye Tian pointed to the wooden box and said proudly.

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

While screaming, Bowie had already squatted down and stared at the beautiful box with his eyes lit up.

There is no doubt that the antique is there!

Ye Tian looked at the door and confirmed that there was no one outside. He immediately began to display the treasures in the box.

"Cowboy! Please control your emotions, the time for surprise is here!"

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

"Wow! It's porcelain! It's very beautiful, but looking at the pattern style, it seems that it's not Chinese porcelain. Are porcelain from other countries also valuable?"

Bowie exclaimed at first, then asked curiously.

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

"That's right! This is not Chinese porcelain, it is a Rococo-style palace porcelain from the French official kiln Seifer. It can be seen from the patterns of their blue and gold intersecting and red vetiver iris,..."

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

The introduction was short and soon the most important information and value were mentioned!

"Bowie, although this is just a coffee cup set from the 1820s, it is absolutely valuable. Because of its rarity, this set of porcelain is worth at least $500,000."

Ye Tian stroked the porcelain in the wooden box with his fingers and said the most explosive content.

"Oh my God! $500,000 is more expensive than gold!"

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

"That's right! This is indeed more expensive than gold. Seifer Ceramics has always been known as French platinum. The 500,000 US dollars is just a conservative estimate, and may even be higher!"

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

"That's great! It's so crazy to dig out such expensive antiques! I love this profession so much!"

Bowie said incredibly, his face almost laughing.

"Hahaha, this industry is indeed crazy enough! It's time for me to leave, there are still people waiting for me downstairs."

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

"Okay, you go and do it. Just leave it to me. I have contacted the temporary warehouse. The area is not small. Just move these things over. I will look for a buyer. When will the home warehouse be cleaned? Just call me."

Bowie's mood returned to a steady state and began to talk about work arrangements.

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

I'll send you a list of the contact information of some second-hand store owners and antique dealers in the evening. You can refer to it. Maybe the buyers of this set of porcelain will be included.

After dealing with the antique furniture warehouse, I will call you. Then we will clean up the home warehouse. Maybe there will be surprises there, so we can make another profit!"

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

Bowie said confidently, patting his chest.

At this time, he had completely returned to his best condition, which was completely different from the depressed moments before.

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

...

Jason, David, and Sotheby's three people were chatting at the warehouse door.

When he reached 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, Bliss, and they are waiting for almost an hour."

Ye Tian stepped forward and shook hands with the other party one by one to meet him, and also expressed his apology for being late.

After a few polite greetings, everyone immediately got to the point.

"Gentlemen, I don't know much about these two warehouses. I learned before the auction that these are two antique furniture warehouses and have some value, so I took action.

Although I took the warehouse, I did not clean it up immediately. Instead, I went to Flushing to attend another auction. I didn't return here until the end there.

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

Ye Tian began to introduce the situation in the warehouse.

Hearing this, Sotheby's and others' faces looked a little bad!

If you don’t understand the situation at all, why do you ask us to come so early?

If it is a bunch of rags that have no value at all, wouldn’t we have a vain trip?

Although he was a little dissatisfied, the three Sotheby's did not make it clear.

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

Since the original owner has preserved it so carefully, it means that it is of some value and worth looking forward to!

Ye Tian continued to tell.

"The reason I invited you here in advance is to ask you to help me identify these furniture and see if they have the value of being photographed?

If you agree and can take photos, I will give them to the photos directly. My lawyer David has also arrived and he will handle relevant legal matters.

If the furniture is of average value and cannot be taken on the photo, I will pay everyone the corresponding appraisal fee and will never let you go in vain!”

The faces of Sotheby's and the other two instantly turned cloudy and sunny. If you have money, you can say anything!

"Steven, then stop waiting. Open the warehouse. We can't wait to see these antique furniture!"

Dennis immediately said excitedly.

"Okay, that's the beginning!"

Ye Tian nodded and responded, then stepped forward and opened the warehouse door.

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

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

Ye Tian asked in, then took the lead in entering the warehouse and began to remove the outer packaging.

Sotheby's three appraisal experts, Jason, followed closely, and each selected a piece of furniture to start. Even David participated enthusiastically. Everyone liked the treasure hunt!

The white cloth covered in furniture was unveiled one after another, and this batch of precious antique furniture finally saw the light of day again.

Just as Ye Tian expected, the warehouse immediately cheered with surprise.

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

"I like this kind of furniture, it is magnificent and of high quality!"
