Chapter 363
“Xiao Ran, there is no problem with these Dunhuang scriptures, all of them are genuine works, and they are very precious
” “You can trade with the Metropolitan Museum, you must take these national treasure-level ancient documents”
After some identification and discussion, Director Guotu gave a positive appraisal conclusion.
Hearing this, Xiao Ran immediately nodded.
“Gotta go! With your words, I can be completely relieved
” “After the transaction is completed, I will send these national treasure-level antique artworks and ancient documents back to China as soon as possible
” “When these treasures are sent back to China, I also ask you to help re-evaluate them”
Saying, he gently closed a scroll of the Dunhuang Tibetan Sutra in his hand and carefully put it into the box in front of him.
“Don’t worry, we can’t wait to get our hands on these national treasures, and no one is willing to miss this opportunity,”
Shan Lao continued.
Including him, several old men in Beijing were full of excitement.
And Xiao Ran in the conference room, why not.
Next, Xiao Ran chatted with several old men a few more times before ending the video call.
Then he looked at Thomas across the table.
“Thomas, there is no problem with these Chinese antique artworks and ancient documents, we can complete this art transaction,”
Thomas nodded painfully.
“Okay, Sean, these valuable Chinese antique artworks and ancient documents belong to you
” “I regret it a little now, losing these antique artworks, the Metropolitan Museum’s collection of Chinese antique relics and artworks, will lose a lot of color”
Xiao Ran smiled and shook his head.
“But you have also obtained several top Western antique artworks, especially the works of Holbein and Dürer, which are extremely valuable
” “The works of these two Renaissance masters are believed to make up for your weak links in the Northern Renaissance collection
” “For both of us, this is a win-win deal, I hope this is just the beginning, we will have opportunities to cooperate in the future”
Thomas paused, and then nodded bitterly.
“If we cooperate with you guy again in the future, we must think about
it” “There are so many top Chinese antique works in our collection, we can’t let this guy sweep it away!”
“Hahaha”
Xiao Ran laughed softly, not without a proud look.
Elaine and them too, everyone had a smile on their faces.
Next, Xiao Ran and Thomas sat down on either side of the conference table, and each signed the transaction contract to complete the heavyweight art deal.
In the blink of an eye, half an hour has passed.
Xiao Ran and they drove out of the Metropolitan Museum with the Chinese antique artworks and ancient documents they had just exchanged.
However, Elaine and Fang Yufei stayed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art and visited here.
After the motorcade left the museum, it did not return to the Plaza Hotel or to the Consulate General in New York.
Instead, he left Manhattan and went straight to JFK International Airport.
At JFK, a China Eastern cargo plane is ready to take off from New York and back home.
The two diplomats of the mission to the United Nations who came with Counselor Wang will fly back to China with these national treasures.
They are taking the diplomatic channel, and will take away these national treasures in the form of diplomatic parcels as soon as possible.
In the blink of an eye, the convoy had driven out of Manhattan and into Brooklyn.
At this moment, Xiao Ran’s mobile phone suddenly rang.
The call was from Miller.
Xiao Ran took out his mobile phone and glanced at it, and then connected the call.
The next moment, Miller’s voice came over, listening quite excited.
“Sean, the payment for the Guggenheim Museum and MOMA has already called, a lot of points
” “There are also the tax issues of yesterday’s series of transactions, we have already dealt with it, there will be no trouble
” “If those guys from the IRS want to tax, they can only go to the Federal Reserve, it is estimated that they don’t have the guts”
After listening to the briefing, Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
“Well done! Miller, tax issues solved, we don’t have to worry about causing any more trouble
” “Our company is a little too showy these days, you pay attention to strengthening security, especially antique shops
” “One more thing, mold is back in Los Angeles today, you turn back to her Picasso’s painting
” “Okay, Sean, leave these things to me!”
Miller answered.
After a few more words, Xiao Ran hung up the phone.
The escort process was very smooth and did not encounter any trouble.
Some guys with evil intentions may have stared at Xiao Ran, but they didn’t expect him to be so crisp and neat.
As soon as he completed the deal with the Met, he went straight to the airport with the Chinese antique artworks and ancient documents he exchanged.
During the escort, the convoy also changed its route several times, and made some arrangements along the way.
In this case, those guys with evil intentions can only watch the escort convoy gallop away, and there is no time to make any arrangements.
It didn’t take long for the convoy to arrive at JFK.
In the blink of an eye, the convoy had stopped at the entrance of the airport’s international departure hall.
Several employees who had arrived in advance to hit the front station, as well as several staff members of the Consulate General, immediately greeted them.
As soon as he saw Xiao Ran, Nick immediately said:
“Sean, all the customs clearance procedures have been completed, and I haven’t encountered any trouble”
Xiao Ran nodded gently.
“As expected, if the Rothschild lawyer doesn’t even have this energy, he will live in vain!”
As he spoke, Counselor Wang had already led someone over.
Sam and the others unloaded the portable safe containing antique art and ancient documents from the car and placed them one by one on two trolleys.
At this time, those portable safes were marked with the logo of diplomatic parcels.
Several staff members of the Cultural Service of the United Nations Mission stepped forward to take over the portable safes.
“Xiao Ran, don’t worry, hand over these national treasures to us, we will definitely bring these treasures back to China safely,”
said the deputy cultural counselor of the UN mission.
He happened to be returning to China to report on his duties, so this time he led the team to escort these national treasures back to China.
Xiao Ran looked at the other party, and then nodded.
“Counselor Hu, the relationship at JFK International Airport has been opened, and I have nothing to worry about
” “After you take off and leave, I will inform my family and Jin Lao and prepare to go to the Capital Airport to pick up the goods”
After a few more words, everyone said goodbye to each other.
Counselor Hu and the others entered the airport with those portable safes and embarked on a journey home.
They used their status as diplomats to take away antique works of art and ancient documents in the form of diplomatic parcels.
After seeing them enter the airport lobby, Xiao Ran got into the car and left here by car.
But instead of leaving the airport, they went to the parking lot and stopped there.
The reason for this is also just in case.
Fortunately, everything went very smoothly and there were no accidents.
Twenty minutes later.
An China Eastern Airlines cargo plane took off into the air, roared into the sky, and flew straight to the east.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ran was suddenly relieved.
At this moment, the phone suddenly rang,
and it was a call from Counselor Wang.
The phone was connected, and Counselor Wang immediately reported the situation.
“Xiao Ran, those national treasures have been sent to the plane, there are no problems, you can rest assured
” “This is a China Eastern Airlines cargo plane to Africa, it will not pass through Canadian airspace, and it will fly to Beijing tomorrow
” Hearing the report, Xiao Ran immediately replied:
“Uncle Wang, I saw that China Eastern Airlines cargo plane, trouble everyone!”
“I’ll notify the country when I turn back, and let Elder Jin prepare to receive the goods”
After a few idle words, Xiao Ran hung up the phone.
The convoy then left the airport parking lot to return to Manhattan.
Not far away, the convoy joined Counselor Wang’s vehicle.
On the way back, Xiao Ran called his sister-in-law and Shan Lao respectively and explained the situation.
Hearing that this batch of national treasures had been successfully shipped out of the United States, they were all excited and cheered on the phone.
More than forty minutes later, Xiao Ran and David walked into the Metropolitan Museum again.
However, this time they did not come to negotiate a deal, but as a VIP member, they came here to visit.
After entering the museum, Xiao Ran first made a phone call, and then walked straight into the impressionist exhibition hall.
Elaine and Fang Yufei are visiting this famous exhibition hall.
At this time, they stood in front of a painting by the Impressionist master Manet, admiring it and discussing it in a low voice.
As soon as he entered the exhibition hall, Xiao Ran saw them at a glance.
Then he walked up to them and admired the impressionist masterpiece in front of him.
