Chapter 930 Remove 4 Zeros

No human figure can be seen on the canvas at all! I can't see the seductive beauty of young women!

However, Ye Tian could clearly feel that this painting is extremely tense and full of passion, giving people endless room for imagination.

In Jacqueline's dark and fine hair, Ye Tian saw two tiny capital letters 'P.P', they are not only extremely small, but also very cleverly hidden, almost impossible to be found.

'P.P' is Picasso's initials and his personal signature, which can be seen on many of his paintings.

Although it has long been confirmed that this oil painting was made by Picasso, the moment Ye Tian saw these two letters, there was still a burst of ecstasy in Ye Tian's heart, and he was very excited!

After secretly celebrating, he immediately looked at another authentic Picasso painting and continued to see through it.

Soon, he also found Picasso's signature on that oil painting.

This time the concealment was even more ingenious. It was actually hidden under the surface paint. The two uppercase 'p.p's were also very small and the font color was very light. They were completely covered by the surface paint and could not be seen from the surface of the painting.

If Ye Tian hadn't been able to see through, it would be impossible to find this signature.

As for how this signature was left, through perspective, Ye Tian figured it out in an instant.

Picasso painted on this canvas twice. After the first painting was completed and his signature was signed in the lower right corner, he felt dissatisfied, and then he shoveled the newly completed painting!

When he shoveled to the signature position in the lower right corner, he didn't know whether he had a brainstorm or a prank, but he actually kept the signature and completely covered it with paint.

After he painted on the canvas for the second time and recognized himself, he did not sign the surface of the painting, leaving the world with an unsigned painting and many questions.

If you put this oil painting under modern testing equipment, perform a perspective magnification scan, and then observe carefully, you will definitely find this signature.

But it is a pity that the previous owners of this painting could not have thought of this, so they all missed this extraordinary top-level artwork!

What these signatures mean, Ye Tian couldn't be more clear in his heart.

With these two signatures, there will be no doubt about the provenance of the two paintings, and their value will surely soar.

François previously asked for $30 million per painting, and now it is likely to double, and may even exceed the $100 million mark.

We must find a way to get these two paintings, and we must not miss these two treasures!

In an instant, Ye Tian had made up his mind, very firm.

The three art swindlers in front of them are not qualified to own this top-level art at all!

As for how to deal with the three art scammers, it depends on Mr. Liu's will. The decision is in his hands.

That's right! It's an art liar.

Ye Tian was very sure that the two Frenchmen and Boss Song in front of him were liars, and they joined forces to set up a game, planning to slaughter Mr. Liu, a famous collector, as a fat sheep and make a fortune!

The reason why he was chosen as the target of deception is that Mr. Liu can only be regarded as half an insider in the antique industry, and his identification ability is relatively average.

The more important reason is that he is too rich, and his sales are too generous. In a little over a year, he has already distributed more than ten or two billion yuan in various auction houses. If you don't kill him, who will you kill?

It is absolutely impossible for these antique art scammers to think that there are actually two authentic Picasso paintings among the five paintings.

If they knew, they would never bring these two top artworks to China. There are plenty of local tyrants in Europe! There are not a few who are willing to spend a lot of money to collect top art!

In the western art market, Picasso's works have always been hot, and they are undoubtedly the top collections. Once they are released, they will definitely attract many famous collectors' crazy pursuit.

Even if you want to evade taxes and avoid being frantically robbed by the French government, you can also choose Russia and the local tyrants in the Middle East!

They are also flocking to Picasso's paintings. If they sell them, the quotation may not be equal to Mr. Liu's, or even higher! There is nothing wrong with cooperating with tax evasion.

There should be another reason why these two French crooks came to China to cheat.

In terms of collecting Western antique artworks, Chinese collectors have not yet formed a climate. They do not have a deep understanding of Western antique artworks, and their appraisal capabilities are also lacking. There are not many authoritative appraisal experts.

It is precisely for these reasons that the two Frenchmen came to China to cheat and chose Mr. Liu, the fat sheep.

In their view, it is basically impossible for anyone to identify the authenticity of these paintings. As long as the preparations are done well, this trip will definitely make a lot of money.

But what these swindlers never expected was that they actually met Ye Tian here, this top antique art appraiser who is said to be both Chinese and Western, with an extremely sharp vision, is simply unlucky!

If you walk too much at night, you will eventually meet a ghost! The ancients are sincere and do not deceive me!

The perspective is over! Ye Tian immediately looked away, continued to smile, and listened to Francois' introduction, looking very focused!

In less than two minutes, Frenchman Francois finished introducing five paintings.

Immediately afterwards, he said to Ye Tian and Mr. Liu with a smile on his face:

"Gentlemen, you can conduct the appraisal. After your appraisal is completed, let's talk about the transaction!"

Hearing this, Mr. Liu immediately looked at Ye Tian to see what he meant.

Ye Tian smiled lightly and shook his head, then said calmly:

"There is no need to do the appraisal anymore, Mr. Francois, when you introduce these paintings, my appraisal has already been completed!"

"hiss--!"

Both Frenchmen and Boss Song gasped, secretly terrified!

It's only a few minutes! Actually, five oil paintings have been appraised, are they real or fake? Don't be bragging, right?

Not only them, but also Mr. Liu was astonished, somewhat unbelievable.

But he didn't speak aloud, but chose to trust Ye Tian completely.

After a short pause, Ye Tian turned to Mr. Liu and said with a smile:

"Mr. Liu, this is an art transaction between the two of you. It stands to reason that I am only in charge of appraisal and providing you with reference opinions, so I should not be involved in this transaction!

But today's situation is rather special. I hope to negotiate this transaction on your behalf. Please give me full trust, and please rest assured that I have enough confidence to control everything! "

"No problem, Xiaoye, you can represent me with full authority, what to do is up to you!"

Mr. Liu answered very simply, without any hesitation.

Those three liars were completely dumbfounded, and their expressions instantly became extremely ugly, as if their own father had died!

"Mr. Ye, isn't this against the rules?"

Boss Song said with a gloomy face, his eyes were quite flustered.

"Hehe, the rules? Do you still know how to tell the rules? It's not easy! Don't talk about the rules, lest everyone tear their faces and look bad!"

Ye Tian said with a sneer, his eyes were full of disdain, and he didn't hide it at all, ready to turn his face at any time!

After finishing speaking, he immediately turned to look at Francois and said:

"Mr. François, you have heard the conversation just now, and now I am fully representing Mr. Liu to discuss this art transaction with you!

Quote your price! To be honest, I am very curious, what price you will charge for these so-called Picasso paintings in the pastoral period, I am all ears! "

Seeing this situation, these three liars don't know that the tricks of the three of them have been completely seen through by the bastard on the other side!

A prophecy! Ye Tian (Steven), that damned bastard, is closing the door and beating the dog right now, he and the others can't get out even if they want to.

The two burly men standing guard at the door were able to KO the three of them in an instant! Rushing over is pure courting death!

What a bad year! It's really unlucky to meet this cruel bastard!

The three liars cursed Ye Tian frantically in their hearts, but they had nothing to do with him.

Situation is stronger than people! Francois could only bite the bullet and continue performing.

"Okay! Mr. Ye, we have sent a quotation to Mr. Liu before about the quotation of these five top-level works of art. Mr. Liu should be very clear about it.

The price of these two paintings is 30 million U.S. dollars, and the other three paintings are 10 million U.S. dollars each, a total of 90 million U.S. dollars. I wonder if you can accept it? "

After finishing speaking, Francois looked at Ye Tian with a nervous expression and a vague sense of anticipation.

The same goes for the other two liars, their eyes were full of worry and fear, but they couldn't suppress their greedy desires.

Mr. Liu has already stayed out of the matter, completely turned into a bystander, watching the excitement with his arms folded, his eyes are full of excitement!

Without a moment's hesitation, Ye Tian immediately smiled and shook his head and said:

"The money is not much, it is nothing to Mr. Liu, he can take it out at any time, but are these paintings worth the price?

In my opinion, the four zeros at the back should be removed, and the price of five paintings is 9,000 US dollars, which is quite reasonable, enough to buy two direct air tickets to Paris! "

"Pfft!"

Mr. Liu laughed directly and couldn't help it.

The faces of the three liars had become extremely ugly, with purple in the black, and anger gushed out of everyone's eyes, they almost rushed up to beat Ye Tian.

Of course, they have to dare!

"Nine thousand dollars! Impossible! Mr. Ye, are you kidding us? If your asking price is really like this, there is no need for us to continue talking!"

said François in exasperation, his teeth chattering.

"I'm not joking with you! I'm not in the mood to joke with you. You heard me right. That's my offer, nine thousand dollars, not a penny more!

And you have to negotiate this business with me, there is no choice, and there is no way out! Unless you want to talk to the police who deal with art crimes and fraud crimes.

You have done a lot of games like this, right? I don't think Mr. Liu is the only fat sheep that you are targeting, maybe someone has already become the ghost of your sword and is still in the dark!

If you enter the police station, I don't think it is possible for you to come out. What is waiting for you next? I think you are very clear in your own hearts! "

Ye Tian said with a light smile, but his voice was very cold, with a murderous look.

"what!"

The expressions of the three liars changed drastically, and they immediately exclaimed, their voices full of fear.

Of course they know what they have done!

Once those dirty deeds are exposed, the police will definitely not let them go, and they are also very clear about what fate they will face next.

There is absolutely no other possibility except to get rid of the bottom of the prison!

Mr. Liu was obviously frightened by these words, he stared at Ye Tian dumbfounded! While being shocked, I was also calling for luck!
