Chapter 104: Royal Furnishings

"Sold! Transaction! 550 dollars, cowboy! This warehouse belongs to you, welcome to New York!"

Henry reached out his hand and pointed at Bowie, and announced the hammer down.

"This is a great place to make a fortune! I love New York!"

Bowie smiled and shook hands with Henry and concluded the deal.

"This cowboy is a bit interesting, the bidding is very tough!"

When leaving the warehouse door, Ye Tian said with a smile.

"$550? I don't understand what the basis is? Obviously a fool!"

Philip shook his head and said, with a look of disdain.

Jason nodded in agreement, and he did the same.

"Ha ha"

Ye Tian chuckled slightly, without saying anything, and walked to the next warehouse with everyone.

The second warehouse should belong to a small medical equipment company. It is full of prostheses and various residual limbs with broken legs. It looks a little crappy!

These prosthetic products are outdated and of low value. They should be sold in the third world and war-torn places, provided that you can vacate them!

Even for this kind of warehouse, someone accepted the bid, and was finally taken away by two Colombians for $400.

It can be seen from the excited expressions of the two that they must have a way to transport these things back to Colombia, and even make a lot of money!

Perhaps this is the charm of warehouse auctions, there are always people who need these things!

The third warehouse belongs to a restaurant, which contains a complete set of kitchen equipment, which is about 80% new, and the valuation is around US$15,000, which is very tempting.

But this was not what Ye Tian wanted, it was too much trouble!

So he didn't make a move, and Bowie did the same, only shouted when the price was low, and then immediately withdrew.

This warehouse was eventually taken by Tony for $8,600, which was a small profit.

Soon, everyone arrived at the door of the fourth warehouse.

The treasure hunters who knows that a complete set of antique furniture may appear today is becoming more and more excited at this time.

Everyone understands that if the news is true, then it must be in the open-air warehouse area. The warehouse area in the building is relatively small and cannot accommodate a complete set of furniture.

There are only two warehouses left in the open-air storage area that have not been auctioned. The possibility is already very high!

It turns out that everyone's guess is very correct.

Before cutting the padlock, Henry stood at the warehouse door and said loudly:

"Gentlemen, the fourth and fifth warehouses belong to the same person, so the two warehouses will be auctioned together. Please be prepared.

First visit the fourth warehouse. After finishing, we will lock this warehouse and then visit the fifth one. The auction will be held at the entrance of the fifth warehouse.

When the voice fell, the warehouse door immediately became noisy, and people responded differently.

"Awesome! The answer is revealed immediately, I like this arrangement!"

"Damn it! How can we still have a chance with this operation? It's all up to the predators fighting!"

The eyes of several warehouse auction predators brightened instantly, and it was time for the decisive battle!

Ye Tian was also very excited, and he did it all! This couldn't be better!

He has never been afraid to compete with other auction predators!

Because there are two police bodyguards following, it is safe, and the amount of cash he carries today has increased a lot.

At this time, there was 100,000 US dollars in cash in his backpack. He was very sure that this was enough to handle any warehouse auction, and there could never be anyone deeper than his pocket!

Although very excited, he did not rush forward to see the warehouse. It is more interesting to keep a little suspense!

"Crack!"

The padlock is reimbursed and the warehouse door is pushed up.

"Fuck! It really is a furniture warehouse, but why is this the case?"

"Damn it! It's impossible to judge style and age!"

Immediately after the rolling shutter door was pushed up, a curse sounded at the warehouse door.

At the same time, a smile appeared on everyone's face, their eyes shining and gearing up, wishing that the auction would start immediately and take down the warehouse.

There is no doubt that the warehouse is full of furniture.

But it is a pity that every piece of furniture is wrapped in white cloth and tied up with a rope. The purpose is obviously to prevent dust. This shows how much the owner cherishes these furniture.

The curses of many treasure hunter also originated from this.

Through the white cloth, everyone can only distinguish the shape of the furniture, know that it is a sofa and that is a cabinet, but cannot judge the material, style, style, new and old, and age at all. This brings great difficulties to the valuation!

However, everyone still has some consensus. Seeing such meticulous protection measures by the owner, everyone understands that these furniture must be valuable.

This is the case on the bright side, and no one can get more information.

Of course, except Ye Tian!

He only glanced at the situation in the warehouse from behind the crowd, and his ecstasy immediately filled his mind.

A piece of red light came out from the warehouse, and it kept shining in his eyes, dazzling! Full of temptation!

In addition to these red lights, there are several layers of beautiful halos that make people fascinated!

Furniture from the nineteenth century! It's all in a warehouse! Each piece has extraordinary artistic value, and in all likelihood, it is a masterpiece by famous artists.

Take it! It's worth a hundred thousand dollars in!

Ye Tian made up his mind in an instant.

"It's too tight to be valued! Steven, what should I do?"

Jason stepped his feet and glanced, but he was also a little dumbfounded.

"Let's talk at the door later, leave this warehouse to me"

Ye Tian said with a smile, his words full of confidence.

"Gentlemen, please line up to visit, it is more efficient, now everyone can't see anything"

Henry yelled loudly, his voice filled with joy.

Although these furniture can't see too many details and are difficult to value, there is no doubt that they will bring themselves large auction commissions.

The crowd quickly restored order, and the visit began to proceed in an orderly manner.

Due to the special circumstances, at first a few visitors flashed flashlights and tried every means to jump up, squat down, or even lie on the ground, trying to find some information, but none of them succeeded and they had to walk away regretfully.

This dispels the fantasies of everyone behind, and the visit process is getting faster and faster.

Two or three minutes later, Ye Tian and Jason stood at the door of the warehouse.

"Damn it! This warehouse owner is too careful!"

Jason rolled his eyes and complained.

"It's a good thing to be careful, and it shows a lot of value!"

Ye Tian replied with a smile, and then began to look at the many treasures in the warehouse that were emitting dazzling red light.

Judging from the red light emitted by these furniture, they were produced around 1860.

According to the charming halo of the red light outer layer, further information can be obtained, and they all come from famous artists.

What style are they? what is the material? How is the preservation condition? All these need to be understood!

Without hesitation for a moment, Ye Tian immediately began to see through.

The line of sight instantly penetrated the thin white cloth, and the exquisite furniture suddenly appeared clearly in his eyes.

This is a set of antique furniture in Victorian and Renaissance style. The whole reveals a strong retro style, extremely luxurious!

There are dozens of furniture in front of them with sofas, desks, dressing tables, bookcases, high chairs, etc.

Because of proper maintenance, these furniture still look great, even more charming than brand new, with a sense of historical vicissitudes and nostalgia.

The size of each piece of furniture is relatively large, and the material is rare walnut, which is heavy and valuable!

The surface of the furniture is decorated with round or deep-relief panels. The decorative patterns are cherubs, human figures and scroll patterns from the Renaissance period. Seeing these patterns is like walking into Rome!

The most typical style is a dining table. The base is a sturdy 'work' frame and claw-shaped table legs. A voucher arch is made between the legs of the table, and a goddess with wings is decorated on each side.

It was from this dining table that Ye Tian discovered the source of this set of furniture and their original owner.

On the side of the dining table panel, there is a very beautiful silver metal nameplate, which clearly engraves the information of the furniture in front of you.

"The Baron of Notting Hill, London, 1860"

Obviously, this is a set of furniture from the British royal family.

The only pity is that the owner's title is a bit low. If this is the furniture of the Duke of Notting Hill, its value is absolutely incalculable!

Seeing this message, Ye Tian was suddenly excited and almost started cheering for it.

This is definitely a treasure. If you win it, you will definitely bring you a lot of dollars, and you will earn no less than Ferrari sports car models and baseball collections.

As long as this set of furniture is released, it will inevitably attract the frenzied pursuit of the upper class in the United States. This is their best arty equipment, and it is absolutely impossible to miss it!

Because of the short history of the country, americans can only lean towards Europe if they wants to be arty. The British royal family with a long heritage is undoubtedly the best goal.

For a moment, Ye Tian even thought about leaving these furniture to decorate his future mansion.

But a closer look reveals that he really has no love for Renaissance style furniture! Too complicated, looking dizzy! Use it to search for dollars!

These are all things to do. At present, the most important thing is to defeat other auction predators and take down these two warehouses.

As for the other treasure hunters, he was directly excluded. They did not have the competitive strength at all, and there was no threat.

After that, Ye Tian and Jason left the door of the warehouse, waiting to visit the fifth warehouse.

Seeing Ye Tian's emphasis on this warehouse, everyone at the scene suddenly felt the pressure multiplied, and even felt that they had lost hope.

Everyone knows that if Ye Tian competes at any cost, with his usual large-scale and fierce auction style, few people on the scene can withstand it, even those auction predators would be choking!

I hope this bastard will not look at these two warehouses. Many people are secretly looking forward to it, although they know that there is little hope.

"Steven, you look so carefully, are you ready to bid for this warehouse?"

Tony, who was not far away, asked loudly.

Everyone at the scene immediately looked at Ye Tian, ​​and everyone wanted to hear the negative answer.

But ten bad things in life!

Ye Tian smiled and nodded said without any concealment:

"Yes, I am very interested in these pieces of furniture and I am going to take a gamble. I am here for them today, so I can't come home empty handed. How about you? Tony, are you ready to bid too?"

"Of course, I will definitely participate in the competition!"

Tony also gave a positive answer, but his face was a bit ugly.

"Well, fair competition, the higher the price!"

Ye Tian said with a smile, his tone was calm, but his eyes were full of confidence and determination.

"Fuck! The two big crocodiles have clearly stated that they are going to participate in the bidding, what else is there for us!"

The rest of the treasure hunters suddenly felt as cold as water.

After visiting the fourth warehouse, Henry locked the warehouse again, and then led everyone to the fifth warehouse not far away.

The auction will begin soon!
