Inherit For Three Thousand Years

There are 6 warehouses in the Louvre for storing collections, and the first warehouse Xiao Yao visited was a warehouse for miscellaneous collections.

This warehouse is very large, about 2,000 square meters.

Those collections with slightly higher prices are placed on shelves, and many ordinary collections with lower prices are even stacked randomly on the chopping board.

Seeing the many collections stacked randomly in this warehouse, Xiao Yao became more determined in his decision not to donate cultural relics to the museum.

There are so many people in society who donate their private collections to museums. If those people see this scene, they may regret it.

The number of cultural relics collected by top museums can range from hundreds of thousands to millions. Those fine collections need to be exhibited in rotation, so they can naturally be properly preserved. But those relatively ordinary collections have no chance to be exhibited to the public at all, and can only be shelved and stored in dark warehouses.

Because there are too many cultural relics, those ordinary antique cultural relics are not even properly maintained and kept.

These ordinary cultural relics are not worth mentioning to top museums. Rather than storing them in warehouses for ashes, it is really better to keep them in the hands of collectors.

If these insignificant antiques are left in the hands of ordinary people, they will be rare treasures, and they will definitely be carefully and properly kept.

Feeling a little emotional, Xiao Yao began to unleash his mental power to select the most valuable collection among them.

After walking a dozen steps forward, he picked out a valuable collection.

The collection he picked out is an antique violin more than 100 years ago. The value of the violin itself is not high, at most it is 100,000 US dollars.

But his mental power found a wooden box inside the violin, in which were stored three pieces of diamond jewelry and one red and sapphire each.

The market price of the cheapest colorless and transparent round necklace pendant among these three pieces of diamond jewelry is about 8 million US dollars, and the price of the blue diamond ring should be around 10 million US dollars. Among them, the price of the pink diamond brooch is the most expensive. The market price is more than 20 million US dollars.

The price of two red sapphires is also not low, the price of the cornflower sapphire necklace is around 10 million US dollars, and the price of the ruby ​​bracelet is around 15 million US dollars.

The price of these 5 pieces of jewelry alone is already more than 60 million U.S. dollars, and he can spend up to 100,000 U.S. dollars to keep these 5 pieces of jewelry for himself.

This is simply picking up money!

His decision to barter this time will definitely make a fortune.

Others pick up leaks in the trading market, but he picks up leaks in the warehouse of the Louvre. At this moment, he feels very fulfilled.

If the management of the Louvre knows that there is a wealth of more than 60 million US dollars hidden in this violin, will they feel so regretful that they vomit blood?

It's a pity that this is a special case, and only this violin in the whole storehouse hides shocking wealth.

He selected a total of more than 20 cultural relics in this warehouse. These cultural relics are relatively miscellaneous, including musical instruments, lamps, ancient coins, clocks and so on.

Except for the first violin, which has a different world, the other cultural relics are treasures whose prices are seriously underestimated.

According to the information beside these cultural relics, the value of these more than 20 cultural relics is at most more than 3 million US dollars. But even if the price of the precious jewelry hidden in the violin is removed, the minimum price of these more than 20 undervalued cultural relics is more than 40 million US dollars.

After selecting the first warehouse, Xiao Yao received nearly 100 million US dollars in cultural relics, so he was naturally very happy.

The second warehouse he visited was dedicated to storing sculptures and bronzes.

In this warehouse, Xiao Yao's harvest is also huge.

This time, he found another stone Buddha statue with another universe inside.

This stone Buddha statue should come from Huaguo. The Buddha statue itself should be the work of a master sculptor. The price of the stone Buddha statue should be around 300,000 US dollars.

Of course, the stone Buddha statue itself is not the focus, but the two Chinese paintings stored inside the stone Buddha statue.

Xiao Yao quickly found out the origin of these two Chinese paintings after using his mental strength to investigate.

One of them turned out to be Yan Liben's Wei Zhengjin Admonishment Picture!

Although this painting is recorded in the Xuanhe Painting Book, it has long been submerged in history. I did not expect it to be hidden in this stone Buddha statue.

The most well-known work of Yan Liben should be Buying Tu, but the Buying Tu that has been handed down to this day is only a copy of Song Dynasty, not Yan Liben's authentic work.

If Xiao Yao publicly displayed this Wei Zheng's Admonishment Picture, it would definitely cause a huge sensation in the country.

This authentic work of Yan Liben is definitely a well-deserved top-level national treasure. If it were to be auctioned publicly, the price would be at least 1 billion yuan or more.

Even if Xiao Yao's Thunder is exchanged for this painting, at present, it will definitely make a lot of money.

Another painting is Ink Bamboo Picture by Liu Mengsong in the Song Dynasty.

Liu Mengsong is good at painting flowers and birds with ink, especially bamboo. He distinguishes between light and dark, and the color is light and heavy.

Although this Ink Bamboo Picture cannot be compared with Yan Liben's Wei Zhengjin Admonishment Picture, it is also a rare national treasure painting. If it goes to auction, the transaction price will be at least 400 million yuan.

Once again, I bought two national treasure paintings. With this stone Buddha statue, the income of the second warehouse has far exceeded that of the first warehouse.

He selected three more sculptures in this warehouse. These three sculptures were all works of famous masters. They were all regarded as imitations by later generations when they were appraised, so they were placed in the warehouse to eat ashes.

Although there is no shortage of top appraisers in the Louvre, there are too many collections here, and the age span is too large, so it is inevitable to make a few appraisal mistakes.

Although there are fewer items selected in the second warehouse, the price is three to four times the price of all the items selected in the first warehouse.

The three sculptures he selected are all masterpieces handed down from generation to generation by famous masters, with a total price of about 200 million US dollars.

If he could get an ancient treasure like the Token of Rejuvenation, then the mundane things he got would not be worth mentioning.
