After leaving the seventh booth and walking a few meters forward, Betty finally couldn't restrain her curiosity, and couldn't wait to ask in a low voice:
"My dear, why don't you buy that Kangxi colorful mallet bottle. That vase looks beautiful. Is it a fake?"
Ye Tian turned to look at his wife, then smiled and said in a low voice:
"Yes, my dear, it is indeed a high imitation fake. It should come from China's porcelain capital, Jingdezhen, Jiangxi. The level of imitation is very good, and it is almost unreal.
But it is a pity that I have just seen the prototype of that colorful vase, and I have personally appreciated it. It is a fine porcelain in the National Museum of China.
There is an old saying that you are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but you are afraid of comparing goods. After admiring the authentic product of the National Museum, you can immediately see the difference between the two when you look at the fake.
In the European and American markets, there are many such high-imitation porcelains, mainly for tourists from China who think they have encountered fine porcelains that have been lost overseas.
"So, it's no wonder you didn't buy that Kangxi multicolored mallet bottle, what about the Danish flower coffee pot from Royal Copenhagen ceramics? How much are they worth?"
"The Danish Flower coffee pot is a real antique porcelain, and it was the first batch of Danish Flower porcelain produced by the Royal Copenhagen Ceramic Factory in 1790.
The first batch of Lace Tanggrass series porcelain produced at that time, also known as Danish Flower, was Royal Copenhagen's first formal banquet tableware, and it was exclusively for the Danish royal family.
This batch of hand-painted Danish flower porcelain has a history of more than two hundred years, and it is rarely seen in the antique art market.
Rare is precious. Each of these hand-painted Danish flowers is worth a lot. In the current antique market, this Danish Flower coffee pot is worth at least three million US dollars! "
"Wow! A coffee pot is worth three million dollars, which is amazing!"
Betty exclaimed in a low voice, eyes full of excitement.
While they were talking, they had already arrived at the next stall, stopped the topic immediately, and looked at the goods placed on this stall.
The goods on this stall are quite mixed, with more than a dozen antique cameras, antique clocks and pocket watches of various styles, typewriters from decades ago, and even several age-old locks.
Of course, this is also mixed with many old imitations, it depends on the buyer's eyesight.
In Ye Tian's eyes, although there are a lot of antiques on this stall, all of these antiques are of average value, and he cannot be moved by it at all.
He quickly glanced at the goods on this stall, and then led Betty forward and walked towards another stall a few meters away.
At the same time, not far behind them, Bowie had walked over from the other side of the canal, came to this half of the antique market, and began to secretly scan for goods.
...
Time passed quickly, and it was 11:30 in the morning, and it was almost noon.
At this time, Ye Tian and the others, almost everyone carried things in their hands, all of which were valuable antique works of art, Ye Tian's gain.
In his hands, Anderson even pulled a huge semi-old suitcase, which was filled with various and valuable antique artworks, which were also Ye Tian's trophy.
In the parking lot not far away, one of the Mercedes-Benz bullet-proof SUVs was filled with various antique artworks, guarded by several armed security guards with live ammunition.
As for Bowie, who followed Ye Tian and the others, the harvest was even more amazing. In just a few hours, the kid had already driven to and from the hotel several times.
The reason why he returned to the hotel was to go back to store the antique artworks that had swept over him, otherwise he would have been crushed to death by the surprising amount of harvest.
Seeing what Ye Tian and the others are carrying, the people at the Canal Antique Market still don't understand that these American are looting this famous antique market frantically!
Although this is the first time everyone has seen this crazy scene, they have heard of it countless times. The same thing happened before in New York, Paris, London, Nice, and Florence.
It is a pity that although everyone knew that Ye Tian was frantically sweeping the Canal Antique Market, they still couldn't understand the value of the things they bought and carried in their hands.
They couldn't think of any effective way to stop Ye Tian, they could only watch him raging on the antique market, but they could do nothing.
Many antique dealers and stall owners tried to protect themselves by asking prices wildly to avoid being looted by Ye Tian, becoming another unlucky person who was ridiculed by their peers.
However, Ye Tian always has a way to achieve his goal and win the antique works of art he fancy.
Those antique dealers and stall owners can't always ask for everything. If they dare to do that, don't even think about doing business here.
You know, the Milan Canal Antique Market only opens once a month. No one wants to miss this opportunity. Once missed, they can only wait for the end of the next month!
For many antique dealers in this market, they just point to making money today!
If you don’t do business today, you will probably have to tighten your belt in the next month!
Because of this, many people, even if they are frightened, have to bite their molars and insist on it, and at the same time secretly pray to God for blessing and save themselves from disaster!
Of course, there are also such antique dealers and vendors in the Canal Antique Market.
In order to avoid being looted, they simply stopped doing Ye Tian's business.
When Ye Tian came to their antique shop or booth, they would immediately declare that they would not accept Ye Tian or do his business!
But how did these guys know that there was a Bowie not far behind, who was sweeping the treasure in the antique fair secretly.
For these guys who shut himself out, Ye Tian attacked even harder, leaving no trace of affection at all.
When encountering such antique shops and stalls, he would secretly instruct Bowie to pick up all the leaks that can be picked up in these antique shops and stalls without leaving a single hair.
While they were talking, Ye Tian and the others opened the door again and walked into a small antique shop on the side of the street, and began to appreciate the various goods displayed in the shop.
Seeing Ye Tian and the others enter the shop, the shop owner who was receiving two tourists suddenly changed his face, becoming quite ugly, and a panic flashed in his eyes.
For a moment, he really wanted to declare directly that he would not do Ye Tian's business, but he finally held back and did not say this.
The shopkeeper knew in his heart that he was opening the door to do business~EbookFREE.me~ If you are afraid of being picked up by a higher-level customer and shut out the other party, then don't mess around in this business in the future!
In Chinese, this is called losing without losing the battle, and the necessary scenes must be maintained.
Although the scale of this antique shop is small, it can be considered as a complete set of internal organs. There are quite a few things, including antique artworks from the East as well as Western oil paintings and sculptures.
In addition, there are some antique works of art from Arabia and North Africa, which are dazzling and worth visiting.
After entering the door, Ye Tian took a quick glance at the antique shop, and then greeted the antique shop owner with a smile on his face.
"Good morning, buddy, this is Steven. Nice to meet you. Your antique shop looks good and has a lot of goods on display!"
"Mr. Steven, good morning, I am Edmundo, the owner of this antique shop, I am also very happy to meet you, I have long admired your name, and welcome to my antique shop
Shengsheng, the owner of the antique shop, made a smile, said hello to Ye Tian, and extended his right hand to him.
