What Ye Tian held in his left hand was a famous Scottish buckler with a diameter of about fifty-five centimeters. The shield was made of all metal and carried a heavy weight.
Unlike other shields in the history of cold weapons, the structure of the Scottish buckler is very unique.
In addition to the handles, shield body, and shield spikes that other shields have, the Scottish Buckler also integrates the bayonet on the shield, turning it into a weapon for offense and defense, which is very suitable for close hand-to-hand combat.
In the center of the Scottish buckler, there is a tapered bayonet about thirty centimeters long and protruding forward. It can be used to assassinate or block.
Of course, the bayonet of the Scottish fine iron buckler in Ye Tian's hand was not installed in the center of the shield at this time. Instead, it was removed and installed in a long strip pocket on the back of the buckler for safety.
In Ye Tian's right hand, he was holding a Roman dagger about eighty centimeters in length. There were a few rust marks on it, but there was still a cold murderous aura.
It is a pity that this antique stall does not have another famous cold weapon from Scotland, the basket-shaped hand guard. You can only make up the Roman dagger!
Scottish buckler and basket-shaped handguard, that is the perfect match, the cold weapon ace combination that once shocked the British!
Due to environmental constraints, Ye Tian did not wave the Scottish buckler and Roman dagger at the scene, so as not to make the people on Sarea Square more nervous.
He just picked up the Scottish buckler and blocked it in front of him, pressed the Roman dagger in his right hand against the edge of the buckler, made several attacks and defensive actions, and then put them back on the stall.
Even so, the many onlookers around still vaguely felt a fierce murderous aura, and they were secretly shocked.
After putting the Scottish buckler and Roman dagger back to their original positions, Ye Tian looked at the owner of the antique stall again and said with a smile:
"Frecis, please tell me about this Scottish buckler. What is the specific origin? How did you get this shield? All-metal Scottish bucklers are rare. I am very interested."
Hearing his words, Fresis did not respond immediately, but turned to look at the Scottish buckler, a suspicious color flashed in his eyes, and he fell into thought.
The many onlookers around also looked at the all-metal Scottish buckler curiously, not understanding why the fine iron shield attracted Ye Tian's attention.
Of course, many people think so.
will not be another insidious trap, right? Maybe the Steven is ready to cheat again, the metal Scottish buckler in front of him is just a prop.
Friesis frowned, his expression changed drastically, and he was obviously engaged in a fierce ideological struggle.
Ye Tian always looked at the stall owner with a smile on his face, his expression was very relaxed, and people couldn't understand his true thoughts.
After thinking about it for nearly a minute, Fresis made a decision.
He raised his head and took a deep look at Ye Tian, then said solemnly:
"Steven, I don't know if you are really interested in this all-metal Scottish buckler, and I'm not sure if you are slamming it. The real goal is not this shield.
Since I open the door to do business, there is no reason to shut out customers. That is not in line with my business principles, and I disdain it, but I have a request, and I hope you can agree."
"What's the specific requirement? Fresis, please tell me, I'll listen carefully"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, his eyes filled with curiosity and admiration.
The stall owner is not bad, he is relatively upright, and he did not turn himself out of the door because he was afraid of taking the treasure. He did not do his own business, and his psychological endurance was obviously good.
Fresis nodded slightly, and then continued:
"Steven, no matter which item you are looking at here, I will quote the price of them like other customers, and I will not smash my own sign.
In fact, I can’t guess what your real goal is. You can’t charge sky-high prices for every item, right? In that case, I don't even think about doing business in Sarrea Square.
However, no matter what you eventually buy from me, after completing the transaction, I hope you can explain the item in public and give a valuation, so that I can understand.
You are the world's top antique art appraisal expert and a professional treasure hunter. You have a sharp vision. You have never seen it before. You must know and master more knowledge than me.
If possible, I hope you can hold your hands high and don’t swept away the good things I have here. At any rate, leave me something of value. This is my family’s business.
If you can give me some pointers, I would be grateful if I have some valuable items here. This is my request. It shouldn’t be too much. I wonder if you can meet it. "
Hearing these words, Ye Tian couldn't help but secretly thumbed up and admired the stall owner.
deserves to be eaten in the antique market, really personal!
He knows that he lacks eyesight. If there are really valuable antique artworks in the stall, he will inevitably be unavoidable from being picked up by Ye Tian, and he will become another unlucky person in Sarria Square.
Instead of this, it's better to retreat as an advance, sing a bitter drama in front of everyone, and find another way to avoid being looted by Ye Tian!
In this way, he can control the loss to a minimum.
If Ye Tian pointed out the other antique artworks on the booth that were neglected or seriously undervalued, then bad things could turn into good things, and maybe they could make a lot of money!
Not only Ye Tian, many people at the scene had guessed what Fresis meant, and they couldn't help but give a thumbs up to this guy's emergency!
Those antique stall owners who had just been ransacked by Ye Tian slam their chests in regret, why didn't they come up with such a good idea? How stupid as a pig!
Ye Tian looked at Frecis playfully, then smiled and nodded and said:
"Okay, Fresis, I agree to your request. I have to admit that you are a very smart guy, and you can think of this way to deal with me, admire!
At your booth, if there are really valuable antique artworks that are ignored by you, no matter the quantity, I will only buy one and leave the rest to you.
After completing the transaction, I will explain the antique art that I bought at your request, give an accurate estimate, and then point out a few antique art that you have overlooked.
But, this kind of good thing is only once. You are the first to make such a request. I can promise you. As for other colleagues, don’t think about it. The business of mixing depends on eyesight."
Speaking of this, Ye Tian immediately turned his head and glanced at the many onlookers around him, his intention was self-evident.
Friesis' face was already full of ecstasy, and he almost jumped up excitedly, there was a little bit of fear and anxiety in his eyes.
For him, this bitter drama is a huge success. Next, it depends on the quality of these things on his booth!
Unlike him, the other antique dealers and stall owners in the onlookers were disappointed and regretted at this time.
"Hey!"
A disappointed sigh sounded at the scene, coming from the rest of the antique dealers and vendors.
Before the sigh fell, Ye Tian smiled and said:
"Fresis, can I introduce this full metal Scottish buckler now, and its price? I am very interested"
Without any hesitation, Fresis immediately said:
"This is a Scottish buckler made of fine iron. The weight is very heavy. The front and back are engraved with many exquisite patterns. From this point of view, this should be a ritual item, not a combat weapon.
On this Scottish buckler, there are no traces left by the sword chopping, which also shows this. Because of the age, many places on this shield have been rusted~EbookFREE.me~According to I personally verify that this fine iron Scottish buckler should come from the middle and late eighteenth century. At that time, the European battlefield, and even the world battlefield, had already become the world of guns and artillery.
This also shows from another angle that this Scottish buckler is only a ceremonial article, and it is not used for fighting on the battlefield. It is unknown who this fine iron buckler belongs to.
When I went to Lille in northern France last year, I saw this Scottish buckler at a flea market. I bought it on a whim and brought it back to Nice. It will appear here today.
This Scottish buckler has a history of more than two hundred years. It is indeed an antique. It is not a counterfeit deliberately distressed. I offer a price of 6,500 euros for this fine iron buckler."
After reported the price, Frecis stared closely at Ye Tian's face, looking forward to his response.
Many onlookers at the scene also looked at Ye Tian.
Many people don't believe that Ye Tian's goal will be this fine iron Scottish buckler. They even think that this is just another cover.
However, the scene that happened next left everyone on the scene astonished.
"Six thousand five hundred euros, the price is very good, the deal, Fresis, I want this Scottish buckler!"
Ye Tian smiled and nodded, and stretched out his right hand to Fresis.
"Ah! Do you really want to buy this fine iron shield?"
Fresis exclaimed and was stunned.
