Listening to Morgan's excited report of a long list of names, Gao Yang was also excited.
"If Alessandro's gun is like Van Gogh's painting in the collection world, how much can this gun sell?"
Hearing Morgan ’s question, Morgan ’s face was a little embarrassed, he shrugged and said,
Well, you have to understand that there are very few people collecting antique guns, and the circle is very small, so you ca n’t expect a gun to be sold. The price is too high, but at a Sotheby ’s auction in London in 1998, a gun of Alessandro shot a high price of 280,000 pounds, but the gun was more worn than you. The gun is much higher, so for your gun, I estimate that it can shoot at least 400,000 pounds. In addition, your gun has the advantage that this gun has been collected by Queen Victoria and the British stock on the stock The royal coat of arms and Victoria ’s signature are considered to be well-ordered and can add a lot to your gun. Therefore, I estimate that your gun can shoot at least a high price of 500,000 pounds. "
Gao Yang touched his chin and sighed, "I thought I could sell tens of millions, but it was only a few hundred thousand."
Morgan said badly: "Make no mistake, the value of the artwork is not determined by the price. The paintings of Van Gogh and Picasso can be sold at high prices, only because there are too many people who regard their works as It ’s just for investment. Antique gun collectors are the real collectors, not for a few years and selling for a high price. "
After roaring, Morgan touched the shotgun in his hand and said with emotion: "I didn't go to London to bid for the gun. I always felt sorry, but God even gave me a better one with your hand. Yes, high, sell it to me, you must sell it to me, the price should not be fixed now, although I can basically be sure that this gun is genuine, but I have not studied the emblem of Europe, and your gun has at least two A family badge, and two private seals, which means that other people have collected this gun. I do n’t know the inheritance of this gun. I have to go back to the United States and ask an expert before I can give it to you. The gun is set at a high price, you must sell it to me. "
Soared and shrugged, said: "Not for sale."
Morgan ’s face became very exciting. He did n’t want to be arrogant, but he was still reluctant to have the gun in his hand. After the look on his face changed a few times, Morgan almost said in a begging tone: "High, please come to consider Will you sell it to me? Okay, I know this makes you very difficult. Everyone wants to own a dream gun. My request is too much, so please let me appreciate it for a few days? One Will the month work? No, a week? How?
"It's yours, whatever you like."
"Sorry, what are you talking about?"
"I mean this gun is not for sale, but it can be sent. I gave it to you. This gun is now yours, so whatever you want is appreciated."
Morgan shook his head hard and said, "You said you gave me the gun? Oh, God, this is Alessandro's work! You just gave it to me in one sentence?"
"I said enough to understand? Well, I repeat, this gun is for you. This is a small gift from you. I hope you like it. Well, I know you like it very much, but Can you not make the expression that you want to cry to show me? Do n’t be too moved, I just like the double-barreled shotgun, so I chose it from a lot of guns, I do n’t even know Alessandro This name, this gun is not to mention my dream gun. I like the old guns from World War II. Even if the collection is also a collection of antique guns of World War II, so this gun is for you, but remember to store me in Your Mauser 98K and P38 will be returned to me. "
Morgan hugged the double-barreled shotgun tightly in his arms, and said with a rueful face: "I want to show the guy, let him cry out jealously, and show off with an Alfonso gun in front of me For half a year, this time I must make him cry. I ’m going to bring this gun to the American Antique Gun Association ’s exhibition to let those guys know that I have Morgan Alessandro The works are still the most perfect works, or the works collected by the members of the British royal family who love to hunt, I am going to be famous! "
Morgan looked like a child who received a beloved gift, and from the way Morgan saw his teeth gnashed, he may have been ridiculed because of the lack of a large enough collection. Now he ca n’t wait to take his beloved one. Things show off to everyone.
Hao Yang laughed and said: "I wish you all the calm down, I wish you a happy mood when showing off."
After Morgan nodded, he nodded heavily, and said solemnly: "Happiness came too suddenly, I was a little sick, high, thank you for your gift, I really like it, you said you like the old guns of World War II? Okay, you like those, tell me. "
Gao Yang thought for a while and said, "I like the light weapons of the German and American teams, but that is my favorite. Well, let me think about it ..."
"Needless to say, are the German and American Departments? I know, I will get all the guns from the German and American Departments for you ~ EbookFREE.me ~ guaranteed to be the best collection, every part is Original, and, you like M1911, right? I have a 1911 prototype test gun, one of the batch of test guns that Browning personally supervised and produced at the Colt Hartford factory, although it has not passed the limit test, But because of this, it is well preserved. It ’s yours now. I ’ll bring it to you when I see you next time. "
In Gao Yang's view, the first batch of prototypes m1911 to participate in the bidding was more precious than what Alessandro's works were, so Gao Yang also radiated his eyes. He grabbed Morgan's hand and said loudly: "Deal!"
Morgan shook his head again and again: "No, no, this is not a deal, this is you gave me a gift, and then I return the gift, please, just a prototype gun, how can it be comparable to the work of Alessandro ? If this is a deal, I will be ashamed to die. "
Gao Yang feels that he has a big advantage, and few military fans are not interested in World War II. Although it is not difficult to get a gun during the World War II, it is perfect, completely original, and has reached the level of collectibles. The gun is not easy to find. Now Morgan not only gave Gao Yang a M1911 prototype gun, but also promised to send all the teams of the Gao Yang German and American teams with light weapons. This return is too heavy.
Even if Yang Yang was given a million pounds, Gao Yang might not be able to put these guns together, of course, not to say that the money was not enough, but that he did not have the opportunity and time to collect his favorite guns.
Like Morgan, he is rich, but he can't buy the coveted old gun. If it's a coincidence, perhaps Morgan won't get a piece of Alessandro's work in his life.
