The vase now appeared in Irving's eyes with a golden halo, which was exactly the same as the one he saw on the antique street before. And this one was also made during the Renaissance period. The original blue and white peach bat-patterned olive vase was exiled abroad during the turmoil. Later, it took the efforts of countless people to imitate an exact replica. That wa's why the cultural relic workers such as Brady were so excited just now, because they knew very well that as long as there were cultural relics flowing out, the possibility of retrieving them was very low. No matter how much reproduction technology was available now, a copy was a copy and could never replace the original. The blue and white peach bat-patterned olive vase he saw now had golden light flashing, so it must be authentic. Irving seemed to pick up the vase casually. "The handicrafts nowadays are really good, and the style of this vase looks quite retro. I think I like it. I can put a rose in it and put it
Walter followed closely, which made Irving a little unhappy, but he just frowned and said nothing. He glanced at the thing in Xena's hand. There was no aperture at all, proving that it was just an ordinary handicraft.Irving opened his phone and checked Quentin's e-book, and then pointed out the difference between this object and a real antique based on the content.Walter laughed even more when he saw that Irving actually wanted to check his phone. In order to show his ability, he picked up a gilt ancient sculpture from the stall, "This is from the Renaissance period. There was no custom of carving inscriptions on the bottom. Some people imitated it and added it deliberately, which just proves that it is a fake. This kind of things is very obvious to see. It’s really shameful to use your phone to flirt with girls in the name of antiques.”After Walter finished speaking, he looked at the seller arrogantly, "How much does this cost?""This guy is an expert at first sight, so I won't ba
When Walter heard Irving's ridicule, he was even more furious. He originally wanted to be in the spotlight with Xena, but in the end, five thousand dollar was wasted. He made such a big mistake. Even so, he still said to Irving stiffly, "The one you bought is probably fake, so what makes you qualified to say that."The shop owner also wanted to see what Irving brought, so he smiled and said, "Young man, if you're willing, you can take it out and I'll have a look."Irving was very knowledgeable about his thing, and he had been waiting for this moment.Irving put the things in his arms on the table, and the shop owner's eyes suddenly narrowed.Walter didn't take the store owner's reaction seriously at all, because his impression of Irving was still the image he had when he was an intern. Little did he know that Irving now was very different from before.The shop owner looked at it carefully for a long time before saying, "Your item is really an old antique. If you are willing to sell it
"Mr. Irving, thank you, thank you." Brady said to Irving sincerely. If he hadn't been on the street just now, Brady would have been unable to help but bow to Irving. He knew it was too difficult to recover a treasure of this level once it was exposed to antique dealers."Dad, did you and Mr. Quentin find anything over there?""We asked for information about the two countrymen, but the items have been bought by others. The police have already traced the buyers according to the situation. I don't know if they can recover them. Let's see if there is anything going on here first.”Since these cultural relics have appeared in the two antique markets here, it proved that their previous guess was correct. The two people brought the things here to sell them in order to get a good price. It was very likely that the market they were coming to now also had cultural relics.In order to find any potential item as soon as possible, they were divided into two groups again. Irving and Xena were still
The dealer came back to his senses and immediately prepared to close the stall. People were greedy. Even if they knew that selling cultural relics was illegal, in the face of the sky-high price of tens or hundreds of millions of dollar, the stall owner's first reaction was to keep the thing in his own hands.But before he started collecting things, Irving grabbed his hands and said, "I'm afraid it's a little early to close the stall now.""I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that I have something to do at home and I have to go back now." The stall owner said while trying to open Irving's palm, but it was of no use."I can't let you go back, but I can tell you for sure that this urn is definitely a national treasure. If you take the initiative to hand it in, the country will not only give you a reward, but also give you an award. But you want to do it the hard way?" If you trade, not only will the entire transaction amount be confiscated, but you will also be imprisoned for at least five
Irving tried his best to suppress his excitement and opened the carton. When he saw the contents inside, he immediately activated his powers. The next second, his eyes were surrounded by a burst of golden light.There were a total of four relics in the carton, and they all glowed like gold. Then Irving winked at the stall owner, who swallowed subconsciously and said, "Okay, we'll take all of these, five thousand each, a total of twenty thousand."At this time, the taller countryman suddenly said, "Mr. Lawrence, we don't sell these antiques for twenty thousand."The stall owner was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean? Didn't we agree on five thousand each?""Let me tell you the truth, this things are not made by us. They came from a lost but marked hidden grave. It took many months and hardwork for us to locate the map to the grave. Twenty thousand for them is too low."Everyone knew that the only things that came out of the ground were funerary objects. The stall owners
After Irving went to the detention center and asked Damon, he spoke with Quentin and Brady about the place the two countrymen had taken the relics from.The cemetery was really in Irving's village, but it was in a barren mountain that no one went to, apart from daredevil thrill seekers.One day, Damon and Baden went to the next village, Tannersville, for some business. When they came back, it was too late. In order to get home faster, they planned to take a small road back, but they accidentally slipped from the mountains to the valley.There was a dark hole in the middle of the valley, which was very open. They found the grave there. They didn't locate it through any map as they had previously stated.After Irving and the others confirmed that there was indeed a grave in the cave, they reported it and the archaeological team sent people over to conduct professional excavations.A day later, Irving returned to his family. His mother was busy in the kitchen cooking for the guests.The
It turned out that there was a regional meeting in Florida. Hudson Jewelry was considered a big company in this area. They needed the two representatives, so they called them back. Firstly, the company wanted them to attend the meeting on behalf of the company, and secondly, they wanted them to attend the meeting to gain more experiences.The meaning of his words was very clear. Originally, this kind of matter should have been attended by the Griffiths Company, Jacksonville Branch, but because of Irving, the matter fell to their New York City Hudson Company.The story about Irving's three gemstones successes had spread far and wide. If Garner hadn't been a strong personality, the Jacksonville branch would have poached Irving long ago.After listening to this, Yasmin asked with a smile, "Boss, this is easy for Irving to do alone, why I'm I involved? I think it's a waste of resources for me to go too.""No, not just that." Garner shook his head, "At the meeting, our company will arrang
Five years later, Irving boarded a plane to Las Vegas. Accompanying him was his wife, Linda. The occasion was the opening ceremony of his new company, Irvinda.Linda was very excited to be able to travel with Irving and not have to stay at home alone. Because she had been helping him for the launching of the company, she was very tired and soon became very sleepy.She stopped talking and fell asleep not long after the plane took off. She was sleeping soundly, probably feeling uncomfortable, and slowly leaned her head on his shoulder.Amid the roar of the plane, smelling the faint fragrance of her hair, and seeing her long eyelashes occasionally fluttering in her sleep, irving felt very at peace and leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.After the new company was opened, Irving spent an afternoon with Jillian in the Vegas office to hold a development and report meeting for the company's senior management. Silverstone Real Estate had completely got on the right track. With suffic
"There is no risk of commercial fraud, and there are no problems with the government. It is great value for money... So can we grab it?" Irving was still a little confused. From what Quentin said, it seemed that these pieces of land belonged to Warren. Why was this so?"Haha, Irving, I understand what you mean! The reason why these plots of land have not been sold yet is because their requirements are high - they must take over several plots of land at the same time, and the full amount must be paid within one week after signing the contract!""You know," Quentin added proudly, "most of the real estate companies in New York City are small in scale and rely on bank loans to survive. Only a few can come up with so much cash at once! But we can do it! There are more than 200 million dollar in the account of the headquarters now. Excluding the 200 million dollar, the rest is enough to support it until the end of the month, and the subsequent loans of nearly 100 million dollar should be av
Early in the morning, Irving finished washing up and was about to go downstairs for breakfast when Warren’s president Quentin came to his door.Irving couldn't help but look at the clock on the wall. It was indeed just after seven o'clock. If he hadn't confirmed it, he would have thought he had overslept. He grinned helplessly and said to his mentor, "Mr. Quentin, are you here to check on me, or are you here to have breakfast?"Quentin didn't take Irving's teasing seriously. He smiled and said, "I haven't had breakfast yet, so I'll just have breakfast for free!"Quentin was a diligent person who has spared no effort for the development of the company. He must have something to discuss if he came here so early in the morning. Irving stopped joking with him: "Then let's go, let's eat and talk!"In the restaurant, the two sat together, Irving ate while listening to Quentin's report."Irving, I have two things to tell you." Quentin took a bite of the big meat bun provided by the restauran
"This calligraphy and painting is worth 30 million, plus!""This jade bracelet is okay, let's count it at eight million.""Well, although the quality of this item is a little poor, it can still be sold for a few thousand dollar, so let's add it together." The short and fat man raised his hands, his expression dull, not daring to make any movement. He let Gunther search his entire body, even small items worth dozens of dollars were not spared.If he hadn't been in the treasure fighting arena, the short and fat man would have thought he had encountered a robber.After a long while, Gunther turned around and asked his men, "Have you finished the calculation? What is the total value?"The subordinate was busy sweating profusely, and finally pressed the last number and immediately replied: "The total is 345,983,642.50 dollar!"When this number was announced, the whole audience was shocked."It adds up to more than 300 million!""This is not a small number. It is rare for major auction hous
"Gunther did not move at all, his masked face showed no expression, as if he were a stone statue."hehe……"Just when everyone was confused, Gunther looked up and laughed."It turns out that the clown is me!"Gunther's words made everyone even more confused. After looking at each other for a while, they didn't know whether they should ask questions, but they were afraid of angering Gunther.However, humans have the same strong curiosity as cats.Finally, the short and fat man asked, "Judges, did I win?"Gunther smiled bitterly and shook his head. "What a joke! My emerald token is worth three million. How can I not win against a broken scroll?"This unexpected response made the short and fat man open his eyes in astonishment. He could hardly believe his ears. It was like a bolt from the blue.But he won't give up easily."I want to pick up the treasure!" The short and fat man took out another antique.Glaze garlic vase.Estimated value: 12.7 million!"Judges, can this one win?" Gunther
"Ha ha……" Gunther laughed.The short fat man laughed.The woman in black smiled.Everyone laughed.Irving, at this moment, under the gaze of everyone, was like a complete idiot.A broken scroll picked up from the garbage dump, hoping to defeat a short and fat man who possessed many rare treasures. If possible, they really wanted to pry open Irving's head on the spot to see what was inside.Fannie couldn't help but sigh, with the same expression of looking at someone as if he was a fool.A thing worth only tens of thousands of dollars would hardly make even a splash on the treasure-fighting stage.Gunther laughed and said, "You're stupid, but you're still stubborn."The short and fat man responded, "Judges, since he wants to embarrass himself in public, why don't we help him? Otherwise, after we leave this island, he will have the opportunity to slander me, saying that I dare not accept the challenge and that Hammersmith bullied him."Gunther thought about it and felt that this made se
"Who.?" The short and fat man stared at the crowd with his eyes wide open. "Who the hell are you? Come out now if you dare. Stop hiding."The roar echoed in the venue. It's like a mad pit bull baring its teeth, frightening people from the bottom of their souls.The crowd immediately looked around, trying to find the man out to calm the anger of this mad dog. After a while, like a river broken in the middle, the crowd automatically and consciously retreated to both sides.Gradually, a large open space was left in the treasure fighting arena. There were only two people standing there.A man and a woman.One of them was Fannie.The other person was——Irving.He was like a standing monument, with his back straight and his eyes sharp.The short and fat man snapped, "It's you again."Irving still looks like an unchanging stone statue. Cold, lonely and arrogant.The short and fat man roared: "Who are you calling worse than trash?"Irving said coldly: "It seems that you are quite self-aware."
"Hey, let's make some noise."The people in the treasure-competing arena are typically spectators who are there to watch a show and are not afraid of trouble, otherwise they would not come here specifically to watch people compete with treasures.It’s not like the man in black robe hasn’t been questioned before.Those who lose in the treasure competition often become anxious and unwilling to give away the treasures they have treasured for many years to others, so they will blame the other person's poor judgment ability and the appraisal result must be wrong.The result was that the doubters were severely punished.At the very least, they will be beaten half to death, and at the worst, they will disappear from the face of the earth.The man in black robe looked down at the people below, neither angry nor mocking.He said calmly, "Do you know what will happen if you question Hammersmith's number one treasure appraiser?"A short sentence, but it sounded very bland.But for some reason, t
"Why don't you two go to the treasure bidding arena first." The woman in black said with a faint smile.Fannie was eager to find out the inside story, so she immediately instigated Irving."It doesn't matter if you see it, let's go."Irving raised his eyelids and said calmly: "Well, I haven't seen anyone fighting for treasures for a long time."The woman in black bowed and walked to the front to lead the way.After a while, the three of them came to another stone chamber, but it was different from the "exotic flowers and plants" one. This one was full of people. There was a high platform in the middle, and an isolated circle outside was surrounded by ropes.At this time, three people were standing in a triangle on the platform.The person standing in the middle was wearing a black robe, his face buried deep in his hood, his hands crossed and tucked into his wide sleeves.The other two stood on the left and right of the man in black robe, facing each other, each holding a square wooden
