Chapter 1601: This is The Empire That I Have Built for You!

“So, we really picked up a treasure this time?” Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s eyes lit up.
“You don’t have to ask.”
Ye Feng held his forehead, he felt that he had wasted his words on this girl, but he still controlled his temper. “Let me put it this way, there are too few authentic Ru kiln products, just the one in my hand can be auctioned for at least ten million. Like the Statue of Liberty just now, it’s mainly expensive in terms of material.”
“If it’s made of iron, it definitely won’t be as valuable as this.”
Zhuang Xiaoqiao was so happy that she was about to prostrate herself in admiration of Ye Feng.
Ye Feng was also feeling very happy, he thought that it was great he accompanied Zhuang Xiaoqiao on this trip, and he had picked up a treasure.
Putting aside the 100 million yuan earned from the Seattle Mall, just this wave of gambling on the storage unit alone was a net profit of nine figures.
“Quick, take a look. Are the rest of these authentic?” Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s eyes lit up like a hungry wolf that had fallen into a flock of sheep.
Ye Feng looked at this lady’s money-grubber expression and did not know whether to laugh or cry. He thought to himself, your family background is so prominent, you don’t need this bit of money!
Even I, who came from a poor family, am not as excited as you!
“Look at this porcelain bottle. It has a thick body and a slightly pink sky-blue glaze with large stripes. This is due to the difference in the expansion coefficient of the body and glaze after being heated.”
“There is no glaze at the feet of the porcelain. After firing, it is iron-black. The glaze at the mouth is thin and slightly shows the body’s structure. This is the most prominent feature of the official kiln porcelain, ‘purple mouth and iron feet.’”
“Now let’s look at this white porcelain. The porcelain is delicate, thin, and shiny, and the glaze is moist like jade. This is Ding porcelain from the Song Dynasty.”
There was a lot of porcelain in the warehouse, Ye Feng introduced them to Zhuang Xiaoqiao one by one.
In the beginning, Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s attention was focused on the porcelain. She was very concerned about the value of the porcelain.
But in the end, she no longer cared about these porcelain pieces, she was even more curious about Ye Feng.
Ye Feng was very familiar with every piece of porcelain here, be it their origin or value, he was very clear about them.
Of course, Ye Feng would not tell her that these were the results of the system’s appraisal. He was more curious about the person who had rented the unit.
There were more than 100 pieces of porcelain here, and they were all authentic. Among them, there were more than 30 pieces of Ru porcelain. Just the Ru porcelain alone was conservatively estimated to be worth more than 300 million yuan.
To be able to collect so much porcelain from the five famous kilns, that person was not an ordinary person. These things were not forgotten by him. It was very likely that he had encountered an accident and these porcelain became ownerless.
When Ye Feng regained his senses, he saw that Zhuang Xiaoqiao was staring at him in a daze. He knew that this girl’s infatuation was acting up again. He pointed at the porcelain in the warehouse and said, “My beloved concubine, look. This is the empire that I have built for you!”
“What about that side?” Zhuang Xiaojiao pointed outside.
“Beloved consort, don’t make a fuss. We haven’t won that side yet!” Ye Feng turned Zhuang Xiaoqiao’s head.
This girl was quite lively. She pointed in the direction of the White House.
Zhuang Xiaoqiao covered her mouth and chuckled.
Ye Feng dialed the number of the world’s largest auction house, Sotheby’s Auction House’s American branch, he told the other party that he had the work of the Gaul artist Robert Cochet, a fifty-centimeter tall golden Statue of Liberty.
As for the porcelain, he did not plan to auction it in the United States. The reason was simple. These things had originally flowed out of his country, he had to bring them back. He could not let them wander in a foreign country. Otherwise, he would be his country’s villain.
On the other end of the phone, when a staffer of Sotheby’s Auction House received Ye Feng’s call, he thought that there was a big business coming, so he politely asked, “Hello, can I help you?” But when he heard that Ye Feng was talking nonsense, his expression immediately darkened, and he said “F*ck” and hung up the phone.
“Hey, Carl, please don’t be so rude. You know, customers are God! I’ve warned you many times!” The manager of the auction company immediately reprimanded him.
“Boss, do you know?”
“There was an idiot just now. He said he had a posthumous work by Robert Cochet. It’s a large golden Statue of Liberty!”
“What the hell? This is the first time I’ve heard of Robert making a large instrument, and it’s the Statue of Liberty.” fɾēewebnσveℓ.com
“This idiot’s brain must be damaged. Otherwise, he would know that the designer of the Statue of Liberty is Bartholdi!”
The staff member named Carl laughed out loud.
“Looks like that stupid pig’s head was indeed caught in the door!”
“You did the right thing, Carl!” The supervisor patted Carl’s shoulder.
Soon, the news that someone was going to auction off Robbie’s Golden Statue of Liberty spread like a joke in Sotheby’s Seattle branch.
Ye Feng, who was hung up on, was very angry. There was indeed bone-deep arrogance in the Americans.
But after thinking about it carefully, Ye Feng felt that it was better to bring this thing back to his own country for auction, the security in America was not as good as in his own country, and America did not have strict gun control. There were often Americans robbing banks with guns for the sake of “self-reliance.”
The Golden Statue of Liberty was too eye-catching. It was better to bring it back to the country for auction.
As long as he released the news in advance after he returned to China, he was not afraid that those wealthy artists who were pursuing Robert would not be envious. They might even come to China and fight for the Golden Statue of Liberty.
Thinking of this, Ye Feng immediately called Chen Qiushan.
Although Sotheby’s Auction House in Seattle didn’t believe Ye Feng, Chen Qiushan, as the head of Sotheby’s Auction House in South Guangdong, had a lot of connections in the United States. Ye Feng asked him to contact a shipping company to help ship the gold Statue of Liberty and the porcelain back to China.
“Big Brother, did you think it’s noon now?” Chen Qiushan sounded a little lazy on the phone.
“Isn’t that so? I’m sweating so much!”
“No, it’s not… Have you forgotten that you’re in the Fifth West District and I’m in the Eighth East District? We’re 13 time zones apart!”
Chen Qiushan was about to curse, thinking to himself that this big brother really knew how to pick the right time to torment people.
Ye Feng was a little embarrassed, he was too excited and forgot about this.
After he had finished his conversation, Ye Feng hung up the phone.
After a full day of gains, Ye Feng felt very comfortable.
The two of them left the warehouse area and hailed a taxi back to the hotel.
After the taxi drove for a while, Ye Feng felt that something was wrong. Although he was unfamiliar with America, he still remembered the roads they had taken very clearly, and this road was obviously not right. The taxi driver seemed to be deliberately taking them to a remote place.
Ye Feng turned his head and looked at Zhuang Xiaoqiao, seeing that she did not sense any danger approaching, he couldn’t help but sigh for her.
This girl was careless!
