Chapter 639: Ox Bronze Head Sculpture

Chapter 639 Ox Bronze Head Sculpture

Obviously, those people, including Cantona, were well-prepared. Each of them was accompanied by a professional appraiser.

When these people saw these paintings taken out by Qin Haodong, they immediately jumped on him as if they were people who had been hungry for many days and just seen bread. They looked at these paintings one by one.

“This painting is truly incredible. I’m certain that this is personally drawn by Picasso…”

“This piece of paper is a sketched paper of medieval times. One can’t make it even if they want to…”

“This is a Picasso’s oil painting. Below it is his signature. It’s true that it’s Picasso’s handwriting. I can recognize it…”

As these people appraised it, they admired it at the same time, and from time to time, they exclaimed in admiration.

Although Sir Owen did not have the bronze sculpted head for these Picasso paintings, he still went over to admire them.

Only Qin Haodong and Nalan Wushuang were sitting leisurely in the hall. From time to time, they would pick up wine glasses and take a sip.

After 20 minutes, these people slowly woke up from their excitement and reorganized these paintings.

Qin Haodong looked at Cantona and the others and said with a smile, “Dear gentlemen, what do you think of my paintings?”

“Great, it’s great. We haven’t seen such perfect paintings in a long time!”

As a bearded man, Cantona was so excited that the beard jumped up and down.

Qin Haodong said, “That is to say, there’s nothing wrong with my paintings?”

Cantona said, “No problem, this is the authentic work. We can exchange for them now.”

“Wait a minute.” Qin Haodong said, “You’ve all seen my paintings. I still need to have a look at your bronze sculpted heads. Only when I’m sure will I exchange them with you.”

“That’s okay.” Cantona waved to the appraiser behind him as he spoke. The appraiser approached with a big box, and when it was opened, it turned out to be a dog bronze head sculpture.

Qin Haodong looked around and felt the fluctuation of the seal on the dog bronze head sculpture. He was immediately sure that it was genuine.

He pretended to come forward to appraise it and said, “Mr. Cantona, I like your bronze head sculpture. We can exchange.”

“Great! You are my friend from now on. Welcome to Europe!”

Cantona shook his beard excitedly and reached out to grab the album of the oil painting. “My exhibition room already has a Picasso sketch, so I’m very eager for his oil painting. This album is mine.”

Sir Owen said enviously, “Old friend, congratulations!”

Cantona said, “And I have to thank you for helping me get to know such a big collector as Qin.”

Seeing that Cantona took away the album, everyone else was envious. Joseph said, “Dear Mr. Qin, I also want to exchange these works with you, and I brought you one of the bronze sculpted heads of the 12 zodiac animals, but there’s one thing I need to tell you first.

“My bronze sculpted head was handed down by my ancestors and has always been stored in the collection of the Joseph family. But I don’t know why there is one like this in the museum of Huaxia.

“I think my bronze sculpted head is authentic, so I want Mr. Qin to have a look. If you don’t mind, we can exchange. If you mind, I can only feel sorry.”

Qin Haodong said, “It doesn’t matter, Mr. Joseph. Let me see if I can exchange it.”

He felt that Joseph was a nice person. He had a good impression of his straightforward character.

What’s more, the bronze head was not necessarily the authentic one in the Huaxia museum. For example, the real dragon bronze head sculpture was in his hands, and the one in the museum was forged later.

Joseph asked his appraiser to put the box on the table and took out a rabbit bronze head sculpture.

Qin Haodong’s Spirit sensed it. Sure enough, there was a faint fluctuation of seal on the rabbit bronze head sculpture. It seemed that this one was real, and the one in the museum was replicated later.

He went over and played with the rabbit bronze head sculpture in his hand. He glanced at Joseph, who was a little nervous, and said, “I like this rabbit bronze head sculpture very much. No matter whether it’s real or fake, I’m willing to exchange it with you.”

“Great, Qin. This is really good news.”

Joseph came over and hugged Qin Haodong, and kissed him hard on his forehead.

He had always longed for a Picasso’s painting, and his heart had never been at ease on the way here. Now that everything was fine, he could finally formally exchange it.

He gave the bronze sculpted head to Qin Haodong and chose the album of children.

Two out of the three had completed the exchange, leaving only Gompos behind.

Gompos said, “Dear Mr. Qin, there’s nothing wrong with my bronze head sculpture. It hasn’t appeared in the museum of Huaxia. You can rest assured.”

After that, he asked his appraiser to move the box to the table and take out a bronze head sculpture from it.

Qin Haodong’s face changed when he saw the bronze head sculpture because it was the ox bronze head sculpture. The real ox bronze head sculpture was now in his Storage Ring. The Upper Level Spirit Stone had been used, so this one was undoubtedly fake.

The Smith couple had told him that the ox bronze head sculpture had been stolen from a rich man named Gompos, but many people in Europe were named as such. The Huaxia people couldn’t distinguish it clearly at all, so he didn’t pay much attention to it at first. He didn’t expect it to be this Gompos.

“Mr. Qin, what do you think? If there is no problem, this album will be mine.”

Gompos said as he reached for the album. He had clearly seen the two bronze sculpted heads of the 12 zodiacal animals just now. Qin Haodong was not professional at all. In his opinion, Qin Haodong was a playboy who didn’t know anything about antique.

In this case, he naturally could not see anything wrong with it.

However, before he touched the album, Qin Haodong said coldly, “I’m sorry, Mr. Gompos. I don’t like your bronze head sculpture, so we can’t exchange.”

In terms of the appraisal of the bronze sculpted heads of the 12 zodiac animals, there was no one more professional than him in the world. How could he be fooled by a fake one?

Gompo’s face darkened. He said discontentedly, “Mr. Qin, why? Why can you exchange with them but can’t exchange with me?”

Qin Haodong frowned. This old guy was really asking for a snub. He had already said it very euphemistically. It was good for both sides to save a little face. Did he have to say it out?

“Mr. Gompos, I’ve already said that I’ll exchange for whatever I like, and I’ll not exchange for whatever I don’t like. I don’t like your bronze sculpted head, so I can’t exchange with you.”

“No, it’s not appropriate,” Gompos said with a gloomy face, “I’m a well-known figure in Europe and even in the world’s collection circle. If you treat me like this, others will mistakenly think that my bronze sculpted head is a fake. It will affect my reputation, so you must exchange it with me.”

Sir Owen said, “Mr. Gompos, you don’t have to do this. Maybe you’ll get something better in the future.”

He was a little dissatisfied with Gompos’ behavior. Since Qin Haodong didn’t want to exchange, why did he have to be entangled? The exchange was supposed to be voluntary by both sides, and Gompos’ behavior was not gentlemanly behavior.

In this way, Gompos should have gone down the drain, but the guy didn’t seem to restrain himself at all. He continued to shout, “No, you can’t do that. I think it’s a humiliation to me.”

Qin Haodong had just obtained two Upper Level Spirit Stones. He was very happy, so he didn’t want to argue with this old guy. He didn’t expect that this guy was so insatiable.

Since the other party was shameless, there was no need for him to continue to save face.

He said, “Mr. Gompos, since you said so, I’m sorry to tell you that your ox bronze head sculpture is a fake.”

“What? How could what I took out be fake? Do you know how to appraise? You must give me a reason.”

Sir Owen said, “Yes, Mr. Qin, are you sure?”

In their circle, it would be shameful if someone took out a fake to exchange with a friend. He was afraid that Qin Haodong would say it out in a fit of anger.

“His ox bronze head sculpture is indeed a fake.”

Qin Haodong said, “Because the real ox bronze head sculpture is in my hands.”

Cantona said, “Gompos, since Mr. Qin already has the ox bronze head sculpture, let’s just forget about it.”

He also felt that there was no need to tell it was authentic or fake in such a private exchange. Otherwise, it would not be good for both sides.

But Gompos still said stubbornly, “This is not a reason at all. Why is the one in your hand not a fake? Why do you say that my authentic is a fake?”

Qin Haodong’s face also cooled down. This guy, who didn’t know when to retreat, was really annoying. It was obvious that he wanted to exchange his painting with this fake.

The ox bronze head sculpture of the Smith couple had been stolen from Gompos. He must have known that it had been lost. This ox bronze head sculpture must be a copied he had created. He knew that it was fake, but he still said it so confidently. That was the essence of the problem.

He said coldly, “Are you sure you want me to prove it to you?”

“Of course, you can’t say that my thing is fake for no reason. You should apologize to me now and finish the exchange.”

Gompos was so determined because he was full of confidence.

This ox bronze head sculpture was made by someone in an emergency in order to exchange for Picasso’s painting. There was a forgery master working for him. The fake antiques made by this person were generally flawless, and it was difficult to be seen through.

However, Qin Haodong’s performance was too casual. In terms of antiques, he didn’t look like a professional at all, so he repeatedly insisted on trying to get the painting in Qin Haodong’s hands.

“Then I’ll prove it to you.”

After Qin Haodong said that, he turned back and pulled out the Beauty Thorn in Nalan Wushuang’s hand. Then he slashed the ox bronze head sculpture hard.

Under the infusion of his Genuine Qi, the Beauty Thorn was unstoppable. He cut the ox bronze head sculpture in half.
