A cry interrupted Yang Dongxu's attention on the bronze.

He turned his head a little embarrassedly and smiled apologetically.

You know, Hayes is about 1.8 meters tall, with such a tall figure.

"The car is outside, if you don't want to buy anything." Troy, who was paying attention to the sword, suddenly turned his head and showed Yang Dongxu an ambiguous smile that all men understand.

"No. I'm looking." Yang Dongxu wanted to explain something, but thinking that the more he explained, the darker the matter was, and Troy's smile became more dirty as he explained, he simply ignored him: "Mr. Craven, can you let me see that thing?"

He simply changed the subject and pointed to the bronze that he had just observed, which seemed to be thrown on the ground casually.

At this time, the price of the cross sword had reached a high price of 3.6 million pounds. Even if this sword really had some magic, this sky-high price had reached the ceiling.

So those who could afford the price and wanted this sword didn't want to raise the price because they felt it was not worth it. So several people did not raise the price again, but discussed in a low voice.

"You are too polite, is this it?" Although Luo Fu was very anxious that someone would buy the cross sword at this sky-high price, he had to try to stay calm, so when Yang Dongxu spoke, he tried to make his smile less stiff and more enthusiastic, pointing to a bronze statue more than half a meter high.

This statue is very consistent with the European art aesthetics, with many sculptures of naked women and men on it.

"No, the one lying on the ground next to it."

"This one." Luo Fu walked over. Then he looked around as if observing what this thing was, and then recalled, because there was no small label next to this thing to explain it. But he couldn't think of what this thing was after thinking about it for several times.

So he began to look for the gloves he wore when he moved things just now, because this thing looked too dirty, and he didn't know how long it had been thrown in the basement. It was moved up when he moved the collection just now.

Because the first transactions were all jewelry, which were all in clean jewelry boxes, so he took off his gloves and didn't know where he threw them.

"Who will carry this thing over first?" Luo Fu said to his son who was sitting far away.

He would have to deliver the things that the buyers had bought to them in a while, so he must not get his hands dirty.

Little Craven's eyes were full of disgust, and he was obviously afraid of getting dirty. But he knew in his heart that how much money he could sell today would determine whether he would have a good life in the future, so he tried to keep a forced smile on his face and walked over to carry the things over.

"What is this?" Troy couldn't help asking when he saw the things in front of him.

"How should I know?" Troy shrugged, "I just got it here out of curiosity."

But when he spoke, his eyes narrowed. If someone paid attention and observed carefully, they would find that his pupils contracted instantly when he saw this thing, and then he suppressed extreme excitement inside.

"This thing seems to be the head of some animal, and there are cut marks on the neck. It may be cut from some animal bronze statue." Hayes, whose face was still a little flushed, said.

Yang Dongxu reached out and took a handkerchief from the table. High-end red wine and cigars are also very particular about the things used, so the white and silky handkerchiefs were placed on the table instead of tissues.

He held it up with a handkerchief to observe it, and weighed it in his hand. Yang Dongxu said, "It should be the head of an animal. It's quite heavy."

"It should be a rooster's head." Toy, who was sitting next to him, looked at the bronze animal head in Yang Dongxu's hand and said, "Are there any famous bronze rooster statues with their heads cut off?"

"I haven't heard of it."

Many people shook their heads.

"Are you talking about the Gallic rooster?" The bearded man who bought the brooch first said, puffing on a cigar and moving his hand on his female companion's thigh.

"Haha. Maybe we need to ask in France." Everyone in the room laughed, even Luo Fu and his son, who seemed a little embarrassed to sell their property, laughed loudly.

As an EU country, Britain doesn't get along with many EU developed countries, or in their eyes, everyone else is aboriginal except themselves.

Thinking about the British Empire, which was so powerful, let alone the EU, they didn't take it seriously in the world. But now, when it comes to France, it's all about romance, fashion, and high-end tastes. They look up their necks when they walk.

"I don't think I've heard of any famous rooster statues with their heads missing. Maybe this is something my grandfather got from someone and put it in the basement with some groceries." Luo Fu said after laughing.

If it was at other open trade fairs, even if he didn't know what the hell this thing was and where it came from, he would definitely hype it up and sell it for a high price.

But he obviously couldn't do this at a private trade fair like this. After all, he wanted to restore the glory of his family. How could he, a noble man, tarnish his reputation for a little money?

"Is there no record?" Yang Dongxu asked casually.

"There really isn't any." Luo Fu shook his head and pointed to the back, "There's no record of anything in that area. It shouldn't be anything important.

But it was put together with those porcelains before, maybe it came from China instead of France. My grandfather brought back a lot of things from China. Sorry, I don’t mean to offend you.

But in fact, my grandfather did bring back a lot of things. Maybe because they came from far away China, plus the cultural surprise, these exquisite things were not recorded in too much detail. If you want it, I will give it to you. ”

The reason why he was so generous to Yang Dongxu and spoke with honorifics was of course not because he knew that Yang Dongxu was rich. In the eyes of many British people, except for the royal family, other rich people were nouveau riche, and there was no elegant nouveau riche at all.

The reason why he was so polite was because Yang Dongxu was brought by Toy, and he was in Toy's manor before. He clearly saw Toy's respect for the oriental man in front of him.

More importantly, Toy is now one of the main buyers of the sword, and he is also very powerful in the UK. An animal head with unknown origin and rusty appearance is not valuable in his opinion, and it is very cost-effective to use it to please Toy.

Yang Dongxu raised his eyebrows, then looked down at the bronze head in his hand, "How about this, I want the few pieces of porcelain over there, plus this thing 100,000 pounds."

He pointed to a few vases and plates not far away.

"No, no, you pack everything for 50,000 pounds. "Luo Fu waved his hands quickly.

In fact, Europeans and Americans also like exquisite porcelain, after all, China means porcelain in English. But in ancient times, foreigners did not have such advanced porcelain-making technology, and the distance was far, so the porcelain exported from China was a high-end commodity.

Now if rich people want to buy some stylish porcelain tableware, they will first choose Japanese or French porcelain. Because the porcelain from these two places gives people a very noble feeling.

On the other hand, in China, the birthplace of porcelain, porcelain is obviously an ancestral craft, but it just can't make a market. The porcelain that Yang Dongxu refers to is not a precious antique, but something from the late Qing Dynasty.

And it's not the relatively rare monochrome glaze or blue and white, or cloisonné enamel. It just looks relatively exquisite, like the decorations in the houses of some wealthy families in Guda, or simply tableware.

"Just those few things, 100,000 pounds, you continue to be busy. "Yang Dongxu obviously had no intention of bargaining with Luo Fu.

Or this little money was not worth owing a favor to someone, neither he nor Toy would do such a cheap favor.

"Then let's do 100,000 pounds." Luo Fu's eyes paused on Yang Dongxu's face for a few seconds, and noticing some impatience in his eyes, Luo Fu smiled awkwardly.

In fact, although he seemed to be indifferent just now, he actually had the intention of testing. He had been observing Yang Dongxu's expression to see if this Oriental man valued this bronze artifact and wanted to "pick up a bargain".

And the current observation result is that this Oriental man seemed to be really just curious and wanted to see what this bronze artifact was at first.

Finally, when he said it was free, the other party raised his eyebrows and felt annoyed by being provoked, so he just bought the thing and said that he was not short of money.

He was familiar with this reaction. Many Chinese who came to study abroad, or Chinese businessmen who came to the UK to do business. When being provoked, they like to do it. Just throwing money around to prove that he is not short of money.

And such behavior is undoubtedly a very vulgar performance in Luo Fu's view. How can a person's nobility and strength be disguised with dirty money?

However, it would be better if all the money of those country bumpkins were his own. Then there would be no class, and there would be no money. God has been dozing off these years.

After paying the money, Luo Fu asked his son to pack the things Yang Dongxu bought. Because it was not an important thing, there was no special packaging box. In the end, little Craven had to use a cardboard box to pack up the things he bought.

Glancing at the porcelain that would be worth more than 100,000 yuan if it was taken back to the country, and the bronze that was suspected to be a national treasure, Yang Dongxu felt a little complicated for a while, indignant, and helpless.
