In a blink of an eye, the time has reached around eleven o'clock in the morning.
At this time, Ye Tian and the others had visited seven or eight antique shops of various sizes, and had gained a lot.
The company employees who followed Ye Tian each had one or two antique cultural relics or works of art in their hands, which were packed in boxes or bags of different sizes.
This is because these antique cultural relics and artworks are smaller in size, lighter in weight, and easier to carry, so Ye Tiancai bought these antique cultural relics and artworks and gave them to his company employees to hold.
He did not buy those antique cultural relics and works of art that were larger in size, heavier in weight, had certain collection value and artistic value, but were neglected by others, but continued to let them sleep.
He left the neglected antiques and artworks to the rest of the company employees, who were scattered throughout the Khalili Market, and could later purchase those antiques, artifacts and artworks.
If they can't get it successfully, or if they find that the owner of the antique store where the antiques and artworks are located is very vigilant, they will give up the purchase to avoid exposing their target!
Next, it’s time for Bowie’s guys to take action!
Bowie and the others did not come to Khalili Market today. Only after Ye Tian and the others left the market, or even left Cairo, and went to the legendary Goshen Land, did Bowie and the others take action, follow the pictures and loot Khalili. market.
At that time, everyone's attention will be on Ye Tian and the three-party joint exploration team. No one will doubt Bowie's identity at all, which is convenient for action.
No one except Ye Tian himself knows the exact origins and value of these antique cultural relics and artworks carried by several company employees, including the owners of the antique shops that were looted.
Ahmed has repeatedly asked about the status and value of these antique cultural relics and works of art, sometimes making insinuations or going straight to the point, but Ye Tian has always been vague and did not give a clear answer.
For this situation, both Ahmed and the Egyptian antiquities police were helpless, and they were itching with hatred, but they could only watch on, anxious and helpless!
Not only them, but also the other Egyptians who received the news, as well as many antique dealers in the Khalili market, all wanted to know how much these antiques and works of art were worth, and why Ye Tian took a fancy to them and found ways to earn them. In the bag?
What makes them even more depressed is that even if they are extremely careful and stare at Ye Tian's every move with wide eyes, they will still be plotted by him in the end and find ways to get these antiques and works of art at extremely low prices. .
Although everyone is confused and cannot figure out the true value of these antique cultural relics and artworks, everyone is very sure that these antique cultural relics and artworks must be valuable, but they just don’t know the goods!
Otherwise, Steven, an extremely cunning and greedy guy, would never go to great lengths to acquire these antiques and works of art!
As time goes by, the news that Ye Tian is frantically looting many antique shops in Khalili Market has quickly spread throughout the market, and even the entire Egyptian antique art collection field!
Unsurprisingly, his frantic sweeps of antiques, cultural relics and works of art immediately caused a commotion and attracted countless attention.
Suddenly, all the antique dealers in the Khalili Market were caught in the turmoil, and they were all on tenterhooks, lest they become the next target of being robbed.
Even other antique dealers who are not doing business in Khalili Market felt chills on their backs and hairs standing on end when they heard the news. God knows when that **** Steven will visit his antique shop!
In this slightly tense atmosphere, Ye Tian and the others walked into an antique shop again to continue their treasure hunt!
Seeing them coming in, the expressions of the owner and clerk of the antique store changed and became very ugly. Their eyes were full of worry, and they even felt like a disaster was imminent.
The few tourists who were visiting and shopping in this antique store had their eyes shining with excitement, as if they were just watching the fun and not taking it too seriously.
Same as before, Ye Tian greeted the owner of the antique shop according to Muslim etiquette, shook hands and got to know each other, and introduced Ahmed, David and others.
After going through these scenes, the antique shop owner named Ibrahim said with a grimace:
"Mr. Steven, it is my honor to welcome you to my antique store. I hope you will gain something here, just like you have in other antique stores.
But I have a request that I hope you can agree to. If you buy something in my antique store, can you explain the true value of that item?
Also your appraisal of the antique artifact or work of art and the reason for the purchase, to clear up my doubts, so that I can also know what I missed."
Ye Tian did not respond immediately, but quickly glanced at the goods here, namely the antique cultural relics and artworks, or so-called antique cultural relics and artworks, as well as modern crafts and travel souvenirs displayed in the store!
After a moment, he smiled and nodded and said:
"No problem, Mr. Ibrahim. If I really discover something, after we reach an agreement and complete the transaction, I will explain my findings and give an appraisal conclusion and valuation.
However, there is only one such opportunity, firstly because of limited time, and secondly because of industry rules. You and I are both industry insiders, and we know better than anyone else that this industry relies on vision! ”
After the words fell, Ibrahim immediately nodded and said:
"No problem, Mr. Steven. If you really missed something here, it means that I have poor eyesight and missed the treasure. I can't blame anyone. I can only continue to study. This is a good learning opportunity." !
No matter what you find in my antique store or how many antiques you buy, once we make a deal, I will never regret it. The reason why this antique store has been passed down for more than a hundred years is its reputation! ”
"Okay, Mr. Ibrahim, let's make it right. No matter what I buy here, it must be profitable for you, otherwise you won't nod and agree. Everyone knows it! ”
With that said, Ye Tian shook hands with Ibrahim and reached a verbal agreement.
After chatting for a few more words, Ye Tian walked to a nearby shelf and pretended to look at the so-called antique cultural relics and works of art on the shelf seriously.
Other people in the antique store, including the owner, two clerks, and a few unrelated tourists, all became spectators, standing aside and looking at Ye Tian, closely following his every move. A move.
Because of different positions, everyone’s behavior is also different.
Some people are nervous, some are excited, some are full of expectations, and some are fearful and worried, just to name a few!
Ye Tian was very relaxed and wandered around the antique store, admiring the goods placed on the shelves with great interest!
As he spoke, he had arrived at the third shelf and looked at the items on this shelf and several African wood carvings placed in front of the shelf.
When his eyes swept over the African wood carvings on the ground, he couldn't help but pause and let out a light sigh. Then he squatted down and began to study the exaggerated shapes and freehand style. African wood carving.
The contents of the African wood carvings include characters, such as a man with an open mouth and a woman wearing a nose ring; there are also animals, such as a monkey with a ferocious expression, a lion with an angry beard, etc.
Without exception, the shapes of these African wood carvings are very exaggerated and deformed.
They have no normal form, no complex movements, let alone composition, but they give people a simple, naive, rough, memorable and rhythmic feeling, which is eye-catching.
Following Ye Tian's actions, everyone else at the scene looked at the African wood carvings. Everyone was curious and a little surprised!
Everyone present has a certain level of artistic accomplishment and some knowledge of African art. Ibrahim is an expert in the industry and has a unique vision.
Everyone can see that those exaggerated African wood carvings have a certain degree of artistry, but in terms of how high their artistry and value are, they are probably not that high.
Why do these few African wood carvings, whose quality is only above the standard, attract the attention of this guy Steven? Is there any unknown secret hidden in it?
Thinking of this, when everyone looks at those exaggerated African wood carvings, their feelings suddenly feel different!
Of course, this is probably due to psychological factors!
