Chapter 931
Ye Tian looked at the three liars who were frightened, and continued with a sneer:
"Let me guess the origin of these five paintings, if it is not surprising, they should come from an antique shop or gallery in Montmartre, Paris, or even from a street stall.
One thing is undeniable, they are indeed from the 1950s, but who said that antique works of art have to be expensive? There are many painters in Paris, but how many of them can become famous?
The market price of these so-called Picasso paintings in the pastoral period in Paris's Montmartre Heights will not exceed five hundred dollars, or even lower! Am I right? "
"Fack! This damned bastard is simply a devil! Not only did he see through the authenticity of the paintings at a glance, he saw through this carefully planned deception, and he even guessed the origins of these paintings extremely accurately!"
Francois cursed crazily inwardly, his heart had sunk into an endless abyss, and cold sweat broke out on his back.
The same was true for his two companions, they both felt a bone-piercing chill coming from the bottom of their hearts, which almost completely froze them!
As Ye Tian said, these five paintings are the stock of an old antique store, and they have been in that store for decades!
By chance, they saw these paintings and found that they were very similar to Picasso's pastoral art style, so they bought them for several hundred dollars.
Next, they first found an authoritative testing agency to do a scientific test, got some more detailed test reports, and determined the age of these paintings.
With these scientific test reports, they can basically be sure that they are invincible. The rest of the identification is very subjective, and it's all based on words!
Later, they specially found two pheasant antique art appraisal experts from Picasso's hometown, Malaga, Spain, and spent money to buy several appraisal conclusions.
In this way, the credibility is higher.
You must know that the people of Malaga, Spain have always been proud of Picasso, and the research on Picasso's painting art is relatively authoritative, and has a certain reputation in the field of Western art collections.
After everything was prepared and there were no loopholes, they brought the five paintings, the scientific test reports, and appraisal reports to China to cheat!
Ye Tian's voice didn't stop for a moment, and it still kept coming to everyone's ears.
"If I were to walk around Montmartre in Paris,
It is estimated that in less than an hour, dozens of such cheap imitations will be collected. Do you believe it?
The reason why I bid 9,000 US dollars is because it has decades of history, and it is not easy to preserve it to this day. I paid for the history of these decades, not for their artistic value.
With the 9,000 US dollars, I believe it is enough to cover your round-trip air tickets, and there should be some left over, so it seems to be not bad, and you will consider it a trip to China!
In addition, there is another reason, I don't want to see you liars take these so-called Picasso pastoral paintings, and then deceive other collectors, and that's all! "
Speaking of this, he suddenly switched the language to Chinese, looked at Boss Song with cold eyes and said:
"My surname is Song, I hate a scum like you who has no bottom line, collude with a few dead foreigners, and secretly set up a trap to trap domestic collectors, it's too low-spirited!
If I didn't run into this, then that's all, we don't offend the river! Since it happened to me, I can't pretend to ignore it, and I must reach out to take care of it.
What's more, my friend is also involved here. The situation you set up is aimed at Mr. Liu. I can't just watch him get tricked by you liars! This will not work!
You must be resentful and very angry right now! Gritting your teeth with hatred and cursing me is inevitable, it doesn't matter, it's human nature! I can understand!
If you want to find an afterthought, you can come here as much as you want, no matter what tricks, buddies will follow! But before taking revenge, you must think carefully whether you can withstand my fierce counterattack! "
"I just want to make money! I don't want to risk my life with a cruel bastard like you, I haven't lived enough yet!"
Boss Song complained frantically to himself, his complexion was like a pig's liver, it was extremely ugly, and extremely embarrassing!
How much he wanted to say a few harsh words to save face! But he didn't dare to open his mouth at all, the one standing opposite was none other than Ye Tian, a murderous bastard.
If this bastard feels that he has the heart of revenge, then whether he can see the sun tomorrow morning is another matter!
There is nothing this bastard dare not do, even if it is in China! Security is very good!
Mr. Liu, who was standing beside Ye Tian, was so angry that he stared at Song Kai who was opposite him, his eyes shot out fire, and he wanted to eat people!
No one wants to experience this feeling of being calculated by others as a mallet and a fat sheep, and is ready to slaughter themselves, and they can't swallow it! Mr. Liu is no exception.
Ye Tian switched to English again, and continued to say:
"Mr. François, Mr. René, after completing this transaction, you'd better leave China immediately, I don't want to see you in China again, liars are not welcome here!
If you act late, you may not have a chance to board the flight to France. Those collectors who have been deceived by you will never let it go! So do the police!
At that time, you may be lucky enough to taste the meals in the Chinese prison, which is a relatively lucky ending; as for other possible endings, you can imagine!
That's all I want to say, what to do, you make your own choice, no matter what choice you make, we can understand and accept it, that is your freedom! "
After speaking, Ye Tian looked at each other with a smile on his face, waiting for the three liars to make a decision.
Do they have a choice? Not at all, unless they want to sit through the prison, or sink their bodies in the Huangpu River!
The scene was completely silent, no one spoke!
The expressions of the two Frenchmen and Song Kai were mournful, almost completely swallowed by fear and despair!
They are more or less elegant thieves, they have never thought about the ending of being in prison, and they don't have the courage and guts to face it all!
And the tragic ending of the corpse in the Huangpu River is something they never want to face and dare not face!
But this possibility exists, and it is not small! Those collectors who are deceived by themselves, not everyone can maintain reason and obey the law!
If it is not complete, the collector will be so ruthless that he will lead someone to put himself and his companions into sacks in the middle of the night and throw them into the Huangpu River to feed the fish. This is a tradition in Shanghai!
Now that the deception has been exposed and the face has been torn apart, there is no need to do some superficial articles.
Song Kai calmed down his anger and fear, then said with a wry smile:
"I'm very sorry! Both of you, we are the ones who behaved unethically, so I apologize to you here! We need to discuss how to end this matter, please give us some time!"
"No problem, go ahead, we'll wait here!"
Ye Tian nodded and said with a sneer.
Mr. Liu didn't say anything, but Ye Tian followed suit, and just stared angrily at the three liars opposite.
Afterwards, Boss Song took the two Frenchmen aside to discuss, in order to get out as soon as possible.
"Xiaoye, thanks for inviting you to come to Shanghai, otherwise I might have been tricked by these scheming scammers, it's too dangerous, thank you brother!
To me, it doesn't matter much if I lose a little money, I'm just afraid that these bastards will have endless greed and try other things! For example, kidnapping or something, that would be a big trouble! "
Mr. Liu said in a low voice, obviously terrified.
"You're welcome, Mr. Liu, before you went to Beijing to support me and participate in my private auction, shouldn't I come to Shanghai to help you identify something?
As I said just now, since this kind of thing happened to me, it is impossible to ignore it and let these art scammers set up tricks again and again in the country! Crazy ransacking! "
Ye Tian chuckled and said in a low voice, Fan, who is quite righteous!
"You're right, Xiaoye, these damn liars are too hateful, we really can't let them continue to wreak havoc in the domestic collection circle!
By the way, since those oil paintings are worthless, why spend money to accept them? Isn't this sending money to those crooks? So worthless! "
"It's not that I want to spend money to accept those oil paintings, but you pay to accept them! This is your deal, nine thousand dollars is just a drop in the bucket to you, not worth mentioning at all!
As for the reason, as I said just now, it is necessary to prevent these scammers from turning around and cheating with these oil paintings. These oil paintings are highly deceptive, and non-professionals cannot identify them!
We want to make this matter seamless, so that no one can find faults. Not only do you have to spend money to accept these paintings, but you also have to sign a transaction contract, and there is no missing link! "
After chatting in a low voice, Ye Tian and Mr. Liu stopped talking.
The three swindlers had finished their discussion and walked over here.
When he got closer, Boss Song said with embarrassment:
"Mr. Ye, Mr. Liu, we have already negotiated. I will pay for these five oil paintings for nine thousand dollars and give them to you!
If the two of you are dissatisfied, we can also make some compensation. Both of you are well-known billionaires, so you must not like our little compensation.
I personally have a merciless request, please raise your hands high and keep these things that happened today a secret, is that okay? I still want to hang out at the antique shop! "
Ye Tian sneered and shook his head, and said with disdain:
"One yard is worth one yard! Boss Song, we will give you a penny of the money that should be paid by us. You don't need to help pay for it. It's only nine thousand dollars. We still have this little money!
compensation? Forget it now! It's not a matter of the amount. I don't need to tell you where your money came from, right? Take your compensation? We can't afford to lose that man!
As for confidentiality, I am very sorry, we have no obligation to keep it confidential for you! You don't have the right to ask us to keep it secret. Everyone knows the right and wrong of this matter.
We are not gossips, we may remind friends we know, but we will never scatter around, we don’t care about that kind of thing, you can rest assured about that.
As the old saying goes, there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and fire cannot be contained in paper! It will be a matter of time before your activities are leaked, and the leaker may be someone close to you.
Boss Song, I suggest you stop messing around in the antique shop. Which industry can't make a living? If you are still in the antique shop, maybe we will meet again sometime.
At that time, you may not be as lucky as this time, and you can escape smoothly! And these two Frenchmen, tell them to leave early, this is not their hunting ground! "
"I'm X! Kill them all! He's too ruthless! This is to drive me out of the antique shop and smash my job! Is there such a big hatred? It's not you, you bastard, who was deceived!"
Boss Song cursed crazily inwardly, his heart filled with humiliation and anger.
But what can I do? He could only smash his teeth and swallow it in his stomach, he couldn't afford to offend the two people opposite him!
One can make him unable to get along in Shanghai, and there is no place for him to stand up! The other one is even more ruthless, and can kill him at any time, making him completely disappear from this world!
Those two Frenchmen were also extremely angry and extremely humiliated! Also helpless!
At this moment, they just want to get out of this ghostly place as soon as possible, stay away from that devil Steven, and board the flight to Paris earlier, even if it is a second earlier!
If I delay here for even a second, the distance between myself and the Chinese prison will be a little closer!
In the blink of an eye, half an hour has passed.
The door of the reception room opened, and Ye Tian and Mr. Liu came out, followed by Raymond and Walker. Accompanied by Boss Song, they walked towards the gate of the antique shop together.
Walker was pushing a small flatbed in his hand, on which were placed the five oil paintings, which had been covered with white cloth again, making it impossible to see the contents of the paintings clearly.
