Chapter 464

Li Du didn't just want to provide them with a space to be alone, he really wanted to entertain other treasure hunters.

He and Hans called everyone together, saying that they would divide the work and prepare dinner together, but they actually told them one thing:

"You are free to hand over your things to these three appraisers for viewing. If they ask to take them away to help you find a buyer, don't refuse. Give them your things and let them take them away!"

Turis hesitated and said, "Boss Li, is this a little dangerous? Without a deposit, how could we hand over things to him? That's impossible."

Li Du said: "Don't worry, everyone, I have my own arrangements, and I will never let you lose a dollar. Don't you believe me?"

The treasure hunters shook their heads and said how it was impossible, and then they all agreed.

Li Du finally warned: "Remember, what I tell you must not let Californians and appraisers know that this is our own business."

"certainly!"

"Here's what you want, there's plenty of booze and barbecue, get it up guys!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately cheered: "Hey, hey! Get up!"

On the side of Ma Cheng and Boer, the five people chatted. They are all good at communication, and they quickly became familiar with each other. Moreover, they are all Californians, so they have more common topics.

"Frank, my buddy, speaking of which, our industries are similar, and we all need to keep learning knowledge and constantly broadening our horizons."

"Yes, we often participate in museum activities, and we also like to spend time in the library or watch documentaries of various industries in our free time."

"Speaking of museums, do you live in West Los Angeles? It's not far from the Getty Villa, right? Have you been there?"

"Of course we've been, we're regulars there and I love the colonnade and the herb garden."

"Haha, then we may have met. Du and I are maintenance experts hired by them. Among them, Du is in charge of the ancient Greek civilization section, and I am in charge of the ancient Etruscan civilization."

After hearing this, York exclaimed: "It's amazing, we haven't met before? It's a pity!"

Ma Cheng patted him on the shoulder affectionately and said, "Next time I go, say hello to you in advance, and I can help you save admission tickets and parking fees."

"That's a good thing," Pohl laughed. "It's so hard to park in that place. Damn, it's 15 yuan to park!"

Ma Cheng was surprised: "15 yuan? You haven't been there for a while, have you? In fact, it has become 20 yuan."

"Oh, damn it!" The vigilance in Bohr's eyes weakened slightly.

Talking about the Getty Villa Museum, they talked about the Santa Monica Museum of Art and the Museum of Latin American Art in Long Beach.

"If you often need to go to the library to read books, then I recommend a place for you, the Huntington Library in Pasadena." Du Dayuan said.

"That library's not a good one, man, it's not a good one." York shook his head.

The three of Ma Cheng laughed, Du Dayuan said with a smile: "If you know Mr. Ding, it will be easy to get in. His brother-in-law is the manager of the library."

Ding Xiaofeng smiled reservedly. He took out his mobile phone and showed a few photos, including family photos and work photos. He pointed to a middle-aged Caucasian man and said, "This is my sister's husband. He is personally in charge of the rare book library in the Huntington Library. !"

York's eyes lit up: "You mean the rare book library? The rare book library that houses the Gutenberg Bible? Oh my God, that's amazing."

Ding Xiaofeng nodded and said, "Yes, look, I have studied it inside."

He flicked the screen again, and in the new photo, he and his Caucasian brother-in-law were lying on the table and pointing to a big thick book.

York said excitedly: "That's really great. I've wanted to go there for a long time. There are very rich European medieval collections there."

"There is also a very beautiful garden. There are more than 1,200 kinds of flowers in the rose garden." Ding Xiaofeng added.

"right."

The two sides talked more and more speculatively, Ding Xiaofeng simply made a phone call, and then said to the two: "Tell me your mobile phone numbers, and I will give you a small gift."

Pol and York became vigilant again, but they only gave out their mobile phone number, which is not considered privacy, so they gave him the mobile phone number.

Ding Xiaofeng said a few more words, and after hanging up the phone, after a while, the two men's mobile phones rang to receive a text message, and when they opened it, there was a QR code MMS.

"This is?" York read the information on the multimedia message in surprise, "The Los Angeles Huntington Library is looking forward to your visit. With this QR code, you can enter the library without reservation and visit the rare book library every weekend in October... "

Ding Xiaofeng smiled and said, "I just called my brother-in-law and asked for two VIP monthly tickets for you."

Bohr rarely showed a sincere expression, and said, "Thank you."

Du Dayuan kept looking at his watch, and York noticed it and asked, "Du, are you in a hurry?"

After hearing his question, Du Dayuan smiled wryly and said: "Obviously, we have to attend the party here tonight, but it is inappropriate for us to show up here with some things. I want to deposit them in the bank. The bank is about to close now."

"What?" Pol asked.

Du Dayuan kept his mouth shut, and Ma Chengdao: "There is nothing to hide from my friends. In fact, they are some ruby ​​artworks. This time I will participate in the ruby ​​artworks in Phoenix's autumn auction."

Boer noticed the small box on Du Dayuan's wrist, and suddenly said, "Oh, is it inside?"

Du Dayuan nodded nervously, and said in a low voice: "Keep your voice down, buddy, there are too many people here, and I don't think they look very good."

Ball said: "Of course, although I am friends with them, I have to remind you from the perspective of friends, be careful with these people."

Yorke added: "Maybe it's not very good to say that, but as a friend, I must say that your compatriot is not a very kind and good person."

Du Dayuan said: "Then I have to deposit it in the bank. There is a **** bank in Qigan City, right? Our company is a cooperative partner with them, and they can store the auction items for free."

During this time, Ball and York were hanging out in Flagstaff City, and they were already familiar with the urban area.

So York volunteered and said: "Yes, I will take you there. In fact, we also have things stored in the bank, but it is not ****, but in the First Financial Bank."

Du Dayuan smiled excitedly: "That's great, thank you."

York said: "In fact, we should be more grateful, because you gave us two precious library VIP tickets."

Ding Xiaofeng smiled and said, "Isn't it right for friends to help? Let's go, let's save our things first and come back."
