Chapter 60

    When the five members of grand Verde''s auction house just stepped into the study, they were attracted by the majestic beauty of gilded roofs, bookshelves and ionic pillars, and crimson sofas. Together with the dark red carpet and the rows of precious ancient books on the gilded bookshelves, they revealed a kind of classical temperament that could not be rejected by Yu.


    Along the way, it''s really like wandering in the TV screen, also like walking into a well decorated Museum. I really want to incarnate as the master of the castle and spend a long time looking at the exquisite ornaments that you can see just like a glance...


    The collection of hundreds of years of aristocratic families is indeed extraordinary. The 18th century French GONGTING black pear writing desk in the study is enough to make people wonder, not to mention the exquisite modeling, exquisite and unique ornaments competing with each other. Many of them are works of art with collection value.


    One of the most prominent is the black sandalwood and brass inlaid ink stand on the table. The ink bottle, bottle cap, taper candle holder and candle extinguisher are all original and perfect. This magnificent object made in England during the Regency has a typical French boule inlay.


    There is also a pair of copper green metal bookcases which are suspected to be from the art decoration style of famous French sculptor Max levillier. The sculpture shows two fighting antelopes, standing on a sloping broken surface, facing each other. The base is made of marble, and there should be the author''s signature...


    It really makes people feel the immortal traces left by history and time in the castle.


    When they came to the sofa in the rest area, they sat down at the invitation of Arthur. However, the two experts focused on a cold painted bronze statue with artistic decoration style placed on the small table in the gap between the sofas, depicting the picture of a young girl who is a believer of Bacchus dancing briskly. The base is made of conical marble with the author''s pseudonym "guirande" engraved on it. The whole carving process is exquisite, the lines are clear and elegant.


    The eyes of the two experts are slightly bright, and they look at each other silently. The works of the famous French sculptor and jeweler jord combs make the two experts'' hearts even more stupid.


    This is an unimaginable treasure!


    "Please - Assam black tea produced in the valley of Assam in the Himalayas of northeast India. I hope you can enjoy it." Arthur kept a calm smile all the time, reaching out very gracefully to introduce.


    "Thank you, Lord."


    When they looked at the tea table, they were speechless again.


    There are dessert plates on the table. The gilt edged porcelain plates with flowers and plants are all produced by Royal Crown Derby, the most famous porcelain factory in Britain. As employees of the auction house, they naturally know that there are Germany''s Mason, France''s sever, and in Britain, it is the Crown Derby.


    The teapots and cups of black tea are antique porcelain of the Chinese dynasty. We should know that the ancient porcelain of the Chinese dynasty is respected and treasured as a fine artwork. But now it is placed on the table for use, especially a set of perfect porcelain. Every shape and flower decoration will be slightly different. Between raising a cup and putting it down, maybe one story after another is spread by mouth.


    It''s too extravagant, it''s just extravagant and inhumane......


    Arthur kept a calm smile, but his eyes behind his glasses flashed brilliantly. He had always watched all the changes in the expressions of the five auction house people in front of him. Their expressions of shock, amazement, and pity were really wonderful. He did not waste his count to set out such a "13 grid" to preempt others.


    Arthur wanted them to produce a subconscious from the very beginning. The Bolin family did not lack good things. They even used antiques to make daily necessities. Although it was a bit outrageous, how could it not be a display of rich details?


    "Good tea!"


    The head of the Asian Department of the auction house led by the team sighed with intoxication.


    "When you drink Assam black tea, it will have a light smell of malt and a trace of rose fragrance. It has a strong taste and a lingering fragrance..." Arthur introduced with a very elegant smile.


    People smile with Arthur''s nod, are a pair of really such appearance.


    Standing beside Arthur, the elegant steward Paul, with a faint smile on his face, came forward to pour black tea to the people again. It was a solemn sense of ceremony with a set of movements.


    Solemnity, decency!


    This is the feeling that all the people feel after they step into the Boleyn castle. They can''t help but think about their own words and deeds. Both the tone of speech and the sitting posture are affected by the classical aristocratic atmosphere maintained by the whole castle.


    "Dear Lord, thank you for your hospitality. Next, can we have a look at your treasures?"


    "Of course, thank you very much for your coming. Please help me appreciate it... Paul, bring it here. " Said Arthur, smiling and nodding.


    "All right, mylord. Just a moment, please -- "steward Paul gracefully put his right hand in front of him and behind his left hand. After bowing down to salute the crowd, he straightened himself up and walked towards the desk in his study.In the eyes of all the people, Paul, the housekeeper, took a large rectangular tray covered with blue silk cloth from another table, walked back calmly and carefully, put the tray on the coffee table, and then gently took away the silk cloth covered on the tray.


    Arthur, who has been sitting still, looks at it with a light smile. When all the antiques are displayed in front of the public, the expressions on the faces of the other five people change. From the first surprise, the accident, and then as expected, it should be so.


    "Lord, can we take a closer look?"


    "Of course, please feel free --"


    Arthur said with a casual smile.


    "Thank you."


    Two experts with bright eyes quickly took out white gloves, magnifying glass and other identification tools from the bag and began to appreciate them attentively and excitedly.


    During the time waiting for the other party''s identification, Arthur kept a leisurely and indifferent look and posture. He drank black tea gracefully and naturally. He watched silently and showed extraordinary composure. He seemed not to care about the authenticity of these things. Maybe he was full of confidence and believed that these things would not be fakes.


    Ten minutes...


    Twenty minutes...


    Thirty minutes passed. When he saw the two experts raise their heads, hold a magnifying glass in their hands, look at each other with a happy look on their faces, and hear two faint sighs, Arthur knows that these things are stable!


    "Dear Lord, I have to say that every piece of your collection is exquisite, and I can''t put it down..."


    “。。。 When you make jade in the Imperial Palace, the color and luster of this piece of jade is the most exquisite, especially when you make jade in the imperial palace. The color of the jade is the most exquisite. The color of the jade is the most exquisite


    Hearing this, looking at the jade card illuminated by a small flashlight, although Arthur still looks the same, but there is a flash of brilliance in his eyes. He knows that he has really picked up a big leak!
