Chapter 1154 Thinking too much

"Hahaha!"

There was a hearty laugh from outside Guxuanzhai, and then a person walked in quickly, and it turned out to be Sikong Zhe.

Fang Ming immediately stood up when he saw it, and said, "Haha! Sikong Zhe, you are too well-informed about China and Israel? You knew it when I came back? I didn't even call Sister Afang!"

Si Kongzhe walked up to Fang Ming, looked him up and down, and then said with a smile: "I also just called Song Miao, and she told me that you are back, so I just found out about the news."

Sitting back on the sofa again, Sikong Zhe was not polite at all, and immediately said directly: "I heard from Song Miao that you have gained a lot from going abroad this time?"

Nodding his head, Fang Ming said, "Yes, it can be said to be very large."

"Oh?"

Si Kongzhe couldn't help but look at Fang Ming again. He knew Fang Ming's character very well. He knew that Fang Ming would not say such a thing under normal circumstances. It is really a big gain.

"There are two aspects. One is that I bought a lot of antiques after going out this time, and many of them are of very high quality. This is a very big harvest. In terms of quantity, there are [-] to [-] pieces. .”

The antiques purchased by Tony, Yingde and the others are in large quantities, and the most important thing is that they are also very high in quality, not to mention the seabed porcelain that Fang Ming picked up by himself. is a very large amount.

"Huh? There are so many?"

Si Kongzhe was taken aback by Fang Ming's words. He knew that Fang Ming's ability to pick up leaks was earth-shattering, but good antiques didn't mean that they were everywhere, just like Chinese cabbage. At the same time, after all, Fang Ming went abroad this time. In fact, the time is not long, and there is such a harvest, which is really surprising!
You must know that the things Fang Ming mentioned are definitely not ordinary antiques, at least tens of millions of things have to be measured.

"Really?"

Although Fang Ming told about his experience in the past period of time, he didn't go into detail about the number of antiques, so Zhou Yafang was also taken aback by Fang Ming's mention of the number key.

"Yes, the main reason is that we bought them in batches from several people by chance, so the quantity is so large."

After hearing Fang Ming explain the detailed situation here, Sikong Zhe, Zhou Yafang and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and Sikong Zhe even smiled and said, "That's normal. No matter how great the ability is, it is impossible to get thousands of antiques in such a short period of time, otherwise it would be too scary to pick up leaks."

"Oh, yes! So it's very lucky to go out this time."

There was a relaxed smile on Fang Ming's face. Although he encountered many dangerous moments when going abroad this time, overall it was very smooth, and his luck was also very good.

"With so many antiques, it will be very troublesome to transport them back?"

Si Kongzhe immediately thought of this question. Of course, Fang Ming's purpose of going abroad this time is to recover those antiques that were lost abroad. Now that the antiques have been recovered, but because of the huge amount, getting them back is a big problem up.

"This is indeed a problem."

Speaking of this, Fang Ming couldn't help but frown.

In fact, before going abroad, he and Liu Hanyan had already made arrangements for this matter and prepared some unconventional methods, but at that time neither of them thought that there would be such a big harvest.

"Before I came back, I thought about this issue and planned to divide the antiques that I can't afford to hand into three categories to deal with."

"The first category, of course, is those that are not very valuable. They can stay abroad. I have asked Song Miao to set up an auction company abroad. If these antiques are suitable, they can be sold. After all, we need a large sum of money now. Use the cash to do other more important things.”

"The second category, those with relatively high value but no special significance, can be placed abroad first, and brought back when there is a chance in the future. Some of the antiques in this part can also be sold if necessary."

"The third category, of course, has special significance, for example, those with special historical significance or those that have been lost in terms of craftsmanship and art, representative antiques, that is the priority to find a way to bring back I have already made arrangements for this, and these things will be brought back one after another in the next period of time."

Si Kongzhe knew that the "bringing back" that Fang Ming said was definitely a special channel, such a channel was very expensive and not easy to do, unless it was an extraordinary situation, it was absolutely unusable.

So it is the most correct choice to divide the antiques harvested abroad into three categories and bring back the most important ones first, so he immediately nodded and said, "Yes, this choice is the most correct. "

"By the way, Fang Ming, after these things come back, shouldn't we hold an exhibition or something?"

Fang Ming hesitated for a while, first nodded, then shook his head, and said, "I'm a little hesitant about this matter, I don't know if it should be done."

"Are you worried that it will stimulate foreign collectors, and that we will encounter resistance in our next acquisition?"

Zhou Yafang thought about it, and immediately thought of the real reason why Fang Ming was worried.

"Yes, mainly because of this consideration."

Fang Ming nodded, "It goes without saying that there are benefits to holding such an exhibition, but I am a little worried that what we have revealed in this exhibition will make foreign collectors vigilant. The whole plan is very likely to bring a fatal blow, so I hesitated about this matter, thinking whether it would be better to make a fortune in silence."

"Fang Ming, your worry is not unreasonable. Such a situation is indeed possible."

Si Kongzhe patted his thigh lightly with his right hand, with a pensive expression on his face, and said slowly after a while: "However, I still think that such an exhibition should be held."

Fang Ming looked at Sikong Zhe, but did not speak, he was waiting for the other party's next words.

"Our exhibition, of course, is based on the theme of recycling antiques that have been lost abroad. After it appears, it will definitely attract some people's attention. There will definitely be negative effects, but I think it's actually not that big. First, in recent years, it has become a trend to recycle antiques that have been lost abroad. We are not the first to do this, nor will we be the last, so although it may attract some people's attention, But I think the impact should not be too great, or even if it is too big, it will pass soon."

"Secondly, I don't think those collectors abroad are people with a sense of justice. Even if there are, there are not too many of them. Therefore, even if they are upset or have ideas, as long as we handle them well, the It is impossible for them to refuse our transaction request in the face of huge interests."

"The third, and the most important one, no matter how you say it, those foreign collectors are most interested in their traditional collections. For example, compared to oil paintings, I don't believe that a foreign Collectors will find our landscape paintings more moving, and this inherent difference will make them hesitate a bit more when stopping us. You must know that what we want to take back is not at all those oil paintings in the traditional sense of the West. Sculptures and other collectibles, so the stimulation for them should not be so great.”

Fang Ming frowned. Among the reasons Si Kongzhe said, he had thought of the first two reasons, but it was the third reason that caught his attention.

He hadn't thought of this reason much before, but now that Sikong Zhe said it, he felt it was very reasonable and very important.

He immediately remembered what happened to Green before. He exchanged a sketch for a set of Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cups—isn’t this thing worth money?Of course it is very valuable.Green doesn't know its value?It is impossible to do that. You must know that the Chenghua Doucai Chicken Crock Cup has been publicly auctioned, not to mention that it is a set!

However, Green changed, although he was very reluctant, but after all, he changed!

In terms of value alone, although that sketch is also very expensive, it is still impossible to compare with a set of Chenghua Doucai chicken bowl cups.

From this, it can be seen that what Sikong Zhe said is not wrong at all!
"Hahaha!"

After thinking about the key points here, Fang Ming laughed and said, "It seems that I did think too much before! In fact, the negative impact of this matter is not as great as I thought! Good! In this case, let's hold an exhibition like this. Hey! Speaking of this, I did get a lot of good things this time, and it belongs to the kind that will make everyone's jaw drop out the kind!"

"Huh? Is there really such a thing?"

Sikong Zhe's eyes widened as soon as he heard it, and he didn't bother to ask Fang Ming anything else, so he immediately said, "What the hell is it?"

Fang Ming picked up too many good things, and after seeing more, he naturally has a very high vision, so he said that the jaw dropped after looking at it is definitely not an ordinary thing!

"Hahaha!"

Seeing Sikong Zhe's anxious look, Fang Ming couldn't help laughing out loud, and said after a while, "I've already brought this thing back, so you'll be able to see it in a while."

"Really? Where is it!? Come on! Show it to me!"

When Sikong Zhe heard that Fang Ming had brought it back, he immediately stood up, shouted and looked around, but he couldn't find it!
