Chapter 1357: Royal relics
While pretending to admire the bronze hourglass in his hand, the corner of Ye Tian's eyes kept staring at the tails behind him, waiting for them to come to the door and jump into the trap he dug.
When the idiots wore the plainclothes Paris police and Marty's scrutiny gaze, they walked tremblingly to the junk stall before Ye Tian began the follow-up performance.
He turned over the bronze hourglass in his hand, and began to pretend to look at and admire its bottom, his face still filled with joy.
He just glanced at the bottom of the bronze hourglass, and he exclaimed in excitement in a low voice.
"Wow! I read that right? The double-headed eagle clan emblem! Could this bronze hourglass come from the famous Habsburg family and is a royal relic of the Holy Roman Empire? If it is, that would be great!"
Ye Tian's exhilarating performance was of course a performance, which was slightly exaggerated!
However, he managed to attract the attention of everyone around him.
Hearing what he said, the eyes of the idiots who had just walked to the junk stall immediately brightened, and the greedy gaze in their eyes became more intense!
And their gaze when looking at the bronze hourglass became even hotter, even a little hot. They wished they could grab the bronze hourglass directly from Ye Tian and take it as their own!
The stall owner standing in the stall had a bright smile on his face, but the look of contempt in his eyes became more intense!
For a moment, he also had some doubts and began to doubt his own judgment!
Is it really a clumsy look at this simple bronze hourglass, and a valuable antique artwork as a handicraft?
But soon he denied this idea and completely dispelled the doubts in his mind!
This bronze hourglass is nothing but a handicraft he bought for ten euros. The craftsmanship is not bad, and it does seem to have a bit of historical charm, nothing more!
It can never be a valuable antique artwork, and it has nothing to do with the famous Habsburg family and the Holy Roman Empire in Europe!
Not only the greedy idiots, even Betty and Anderson also looked at the bronze hourglass in Ye Tian's hand with interest.
"Steven, tell me about this bronze hourglass. Why do you say it is related to the Habsburg family and the Holy Roman Empire? I think everyone is interested!"
Anderson asked in a low voice curiously, his eyes still fixed on the bronze hourglass.
This seemingly unintentional but curious question came just right, and it gave Ye Tian the perfect excuse to continue performing!
Ye Tian turned his head and glanced at Anderson with an implied admiration, then pointed to the double-headed eagle logo on the base of the bronze hourglass, and explained with a smile:
"Look at this double-headed eagle logo. This is the imperial emblem of the Holy Roman Empire. The Holy Roman Empire was a feudal monarchy that spanned Western and Central Europe from 962 to 1806.
The Habsburg family is the most extensive royal family in European history, having ruled the Holy Roman Empire, the Spanish Empire, the Grand Duchy of Austria, the Austrian Empire, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
The emblem of the Habsburg family is a shield-shaped red lion with a yellow background, but because the Habsburg family inherited the throne of the Holy Roman Empire, they later used the double-headed eagle to represent their family.
In fact, the double-headed eagle logo used by the Habsburg family is slightly different from the imperial emblem of the Holy Roman Empire. It is not easy for ordinary people to distinguish. The difference is here...."
With that, Ye Tian pointed to the double-headed eagle logo on the base of the bronze hourglass, and began to explain in detail the subtle difference between it and the emblem of the Holy Roman Empire!
While he was explaining, the eyes of the idiots next to him were already burning hot!
They wanted to grab the bronze hourglass from Ye Tian, appreciate it, and then take it down and make a fortune!
But seeing the sturdy and sturdy and unusual Matisse and the others, those guys immediately eliminated the opportunity to approach Ye Tian, lest they make themselves unlucky!
It only took a moment for Ye Tian to complete the explanation. He did not say the age of the bronze hourglass, and its artistic value and market value.
This is the Santouan second-hand market. If he speaks out this information in public, it would seem too false. It is a layman's performance, but it will be self-defeating!
Although this is acting, it should be as real as possible. Only in this way can we lure those idiots next to us into the trap!
At the same time, he does not bother to fabricate false information. What he says is the information shown on the bronze hourglass!
In this way, even if those idiots next to them know that they have been deceived, they can't say anything, they can only swallow this bitter pill secretly!
After finishing the explanation, he immediately asked the stall owner with the bronze hourglass:
"Man, how much is this bronze hourglass? Quote a price, this thing looks good, if the price is right, I want to accept this bronze hourglass!"
Hearing this, the vendor's heart suddenly burst into ecstasy.
He was even more affirmed that Ye Tian was just a fake name, but he was actually a great mallet!
In the past, the legends about how sharp Ye Tian's eyes were and never seen them before were nothing more than legends. They were rumored to be true!
Steven this **** is a veritable super rich man with money in his pocket. Such an opportunity is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. This **** must not be spared!
I want to do justice to the people of Paris. Steven, the bastard, has ruined Paris two days ago and scared everyone!
Thinking about this, the stall owner was ready to open a big mouth, slay Ye Tian with a knife, and earn a lot of money!
At this moment, an excited voice suddenly came from the side, which directly blocked the vendor's words.
"Excuse me, Mr. Steven, interrupt, can I see the bronze hourglass in your hand? That bronze hourglass looks good, I'm very interested!"
You are waiting, the fish finally bit the hook!
Ye Tian sneered to himself, then turned to look at the guys not far away.
The white stall owner in the stall was the same. He turned his head to look at the guys, his eyes were a little unhappy, and he hated the troubles of those guys.
"Guys, I'm talking about this transaction. It seems that you shouldn't intervene at this time. It's not compliant! So I'm very sorry, you can't watch this bronze hourglass for the time being!"
Ye Tian said coldly, refusing the requests of those guys.
During this process, he always held the bronze hourglass, and didn't mean to let it go.
He didn't know the level of identification of those greedy idiots, he couldn't tell the authenticity of this bronze hourglass if he kept it!
To be on the safe side, he could only hold the bronze hourglass, as far as possible to avoid those guys from personally checking this bronze hourglass.
After speaking, he ignored the guys next to him and turned back to look at the stall owner, waiting for the stall owner to give an offer!
The stall owner also turned his head, put a big smile on his face, and opened the lion's mouth.
"Hello, Mr. Steven, I won't introduce this simple bronze hourglass anymore. You are a well-known expert on antique art appraisal, and you know more than me!
The price of this bronze hourglass is 50,000 Euros. I wonder if you can accept it? If you can settle in cash, the price can be appropriately lowered, and you know the reason! "
"Hey! The heart is really dark, this is taking my buddies a fool!"
Ye Tian sighed with emotion, almost laughed out loud with anger!
But the play will continue, and after a little thought, he said hesitantly:
"Sorry, the price is too high and I can't accept it. There is no problem with cash payment. I have enough cash, but I want to hear a sincere offer!"
A glimmer of joy flashed through the eyes of the owner of the thrift stall, and then he pretended to think about it, and then said in pain:
"Since you are paying in cash, which saves me a lot of tax, I can also lower the price appropriately, forty-five thousand euros, which is the lowest price I can accept!"
Ye Tian looked at the bronze hourglass in his hand, then shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"Although this bronze hourglass is a very good treasure, the price of 45,000 euros is still a bit high, if it can be lowered, it would be great!"
Next, he and the white stall owner in the booth started to beat the price, and he was very eager.
In the process of bargaining, he never made an offer, but constantly set off the atmosphere with his expressions and words, and tried his best to show his love for this bronze hourglass.
It was the white stall owner who took the initiative to offer and kept reducing prices.
Fearing that Ye Tian would quote the price, the white stall owner immediately nodded and agreed, selling this bronze hourglass to himself, that would be foolish!
While talking, the price of this bronze hourglass has dropped to 32,000 euros.
As an old fried dough stick at the Santouan flea market, when the white stall owner quoted the price, his expression was painful, absolutely worth an Oscar figurine!
Ye Tian's performance was more exciting than that of the white stall owner. Hearing this offer, his face immediately showed joy, and he seemed to be ready to nod and take down the bronze hourglass!
At this moment, the untimely voice that Ye Tian had been waiting for for a long time suddenly came over again.
"Man, thirty-four thousand euros, I want this bronze hourglass, cash payment!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Tian and the white stall owner turned their heads and looked to the right at the same time, looking at the idiots.
Those idiots who had stepped into the trap with one foot were staring at the bronze hourglass in Ye Tian's hands, their eyes were extremely hot, as if they were looking at a huge treasure!
"Gentlemen, this is a bit inappropriate, isn't it? Is it demeanor?"
Ye Tian said coldly, looking very upset.
Those idiots don't care about the rules and manners at this time, they only have the bronze hourglass and the colorful banknotes in their eyes!
Without any hesitation, the guy who just quoted said expectantly:
"Sorry, Steven, I really like this bronze hourglass very much, and I really want to buy it. Besides, the higher the price is, there is nothing wrong with it!"
This guy is also a great hammer! awesome!
The white stall owner almost cheered with excitement, then turned his head to look at Ye Tian, hoping that he would respond ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ to start a fierce competition with the guys next to him, just take advantage of it!
But the development of things was beyond his expectation!
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Tian put the bronze hourglass back on the table, and then said with a wry smile:
"It seems that this bronze hourglass has no fate with me. It's really a shame, man, since you like this baby, then I will be the beauty of an adult!
But I still want to remind you that in the antique art industry, you still have to abide by the rules, otherwise, when you regret it, goodbye! "
After speaking, Ye Tian took Betty and turned away, and walked to another stall not far away, without the slightest nostalgia!
The white stall owner was stunned, and he was gone? That's too simple!
The idiot next to him picked up the bronze hourglass and admired it with joy, his eyes were hot and his face almost burst into laughter!
