Chapter 604
Philadelphia Museum of Art, helipad.
Looking at the many boxes on the floor, as well as the painting bags and tubes, Timothy and the others had shocked expressions.
"Sean, you guy is really the same as the legend
" "Every place you go, you will sweep up the local antique art market and set off a huge storm
" "This is the day after you arrived in Philadelphia, you swept so many treasures, those antique shops and galleries that were looted by you, it was really unlucky!"
Timothy said with emotion, with a sour taste in his tone.
Not only him, but also the other high-ranking members of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
"Sean, the news that you found more than $50 million worth of Chinese antique porcelain in Jones' hapless antique shop has spread throughout Philadelphia and caused quite a stir
" "In several other antique shops and galleries, I heard that you have also found a lot of
treasures" "Can you let us also see these treasures and open our eyes"
said another museum executive.
The rest of the people also nodded, full of expectation.
Xiao Ran looked at these old friends, pondered for a while, and then nodded and said:
"Of course, no problem, I can show you some of today's harvest later
" "But the truth is far from being as exaggerated as the legend, there are many things here, all of which I bought for the fans in the live broadcast room
" "Although those things are also considered antique artworks, their value is relatively average
" "As for the claim that I ransacked those antique shops and galleries, It's just an exaggeration,"
Timothy just smiled, not seriously.
They know that the legend may be exaggerated, but it is not far from the truth.
The reason is simple, several of them know Jones and have called to confirm and know the truth!
After a few small talks, Xiao Ran instructed his staff to carry the boxes, as well as painting bags and painting tubes onto the trolley, and then led by Timothy into the museum.
Immediately after that, two medium helicopters took off one after another and flew straight into the distance.
Seeing this scene, the guys outside the museum who followed and still did not die suddenly understood!
It's completely out of drama, and it's hard work for nothing!
Soon, nearly an hour had passed.
After displaying some of the harvested antique artworks and storing all the treasures in the vault, Xiao Ran and Timothy walked out of the vault.
At this time, Timothy still had a little shock in their eyes, as well as endless envy.
Xiao Ran's harvest this morning made each of them envious, and even blushed with jealousy.
Before that, they never thought about it.
Who can discover and buy so many good quality antique works of art in such a short period of time, it is simply impossible!
It wasn't until Xiao Ran appeared in Philadelphia, until those antique artworks appeared in front of them just now, that they believed that there would be such a miracle!
While envious and jealous, they also beat their chests with regret, and their hearts were very distressed!
The antique shops and galleries around the museum are familiar with them all too often!
Why didn't I find these valuable treasures, there are no beads in my eyes!
Looking at the painful expressions of these guys, Xiao Ran secretly snickered, and he was called a cool in his heart!
This time he entered the Philadelphia Museum of Art Vault, in addition to storing today's harvest, he also found out part of the Philadelphia Museum of Art's family background.
All the antique artworks stored in this vault by the Philadelphia Museum of Art have been fully seen by him!
Among these antique artworks that are not on public display, there are many antique artworks from China, and there is no shortage of national treasures!
Later, when he cooperates with this top museum and makes a deal, he can calmly make a price!
In addition, he also took this opportunity to improve his own strength!
Such a godsend opportunity is certainly not to be missed!
After walking out of the vault area, Timothy immediately said
, "Sean, it's lunchtime, let's go eat first!"
"After lunch, let's talk about cooperation,"
Xiao Ran nodded immediately.
"It's okay this way, I also want to have lunch at the Philadelphia Museum of Art,"
and the group walked towards the restaurant.
Meanwhile.
At lunchtime, McCann left the gallery alone and drove off the street where the gallery was located.
This guy was very careful, and while driving, he kept looking at the situation behind through the rearview mirror to see if anyone was following.
After making several circles around several nearby streets and making sure no one was following, he drove to his real destination.
But how did he know that his car had long been secretly installed with GPS positioning devices and eavesdropping devices.
His driving route, as well as every word he said in the car, was instantly mastered.
After a while, McCann drove into another street in the Arts District and stopped in front of a building on the side of the street.
Before getting out of the car, he changed into a coat and put on sunglasses before getting out of the car.
The first time he landed on the ground, he quickly scanned the surrounding situation.
Seeing that there were no suspicious people and vehicles around, McCann walked into a restaurant on the side of the street.
Two or three minutes later, he came out of the back door of the restaurant, walked about fifty or sixty meters, and then turned into a secluded side street.
A few minutes later, he appeared in an ordinary apartment.
The apartment is small, the interior is simple, and it's quite old, and it should have been renovated for decades.
Good to be well furnished, although old point, but everything that should be there.
At first glance, this is just an ordinary apartment, nothing special.
When McCann walked into the apartment, a guy in the living room who was drinking immediately put down his glass and stood up.
It was a white man with a ponytail, in his early sixties, who looked a bit artistic.
Seeing McCann come in, the guy couldn't wait to ask: "McCann
, I just saw some news on social media
" "Is it true that Sean that guy almost got into a fire with the gangsters when he was in your gallery?"
"One more thing, I heard that guy bought some paintings from your gallery, which paintings?"
McCann didn't respond immediately, but sat down on the couch and let out a sigh of relief.
Then, he picked up the whiskey on the table, poured himself a glass, and then raised his glass and drank it.
After putting down the wine glass, he nodded and said:
"That's right, when Sean that bastard was shopping in my gallery, he did almost get into a fire with the gangsters who heard the news outside
" "Sean's bastard and his men are a bunch of crazy people, a bunch of armed suit thugs, more exaggerated and crazy than the legend!"
"It's the first time I've seen people in bulletproof SUVs and midsize helicopters, wearing body armor and carrying assault rifles in galleries, and it's really eye-opening!"
"Ah! And such crazy bastards, really fake? The
white man with a ponytail exclaimed, his eyes full of horror!
Before the words fell, McCann nodded and said:
"Of course it's true, I saw all this with my own eyes
" "Those crazy bastards, even set up a defensive position in front of my gallery, ready to fight with all the people who rushed up to rob!"
"My heart was in my throat at that time, lest I burst into flames and destroy the gallery, destroy the top artworks in
the gallery" "Fortunately, Sean arranged it well, scared off all the idiots who tried to rob, and then left the gallery with what he bought and went to the art museum"
Hearing this, the other white man's face had become more and more solemn.
"You can see that this guy Sean is more terrifying than the legend, do you think he will come at us?"
"When he was in Boston before, he had been to the Gardner Museum several times, and he seemed to have a good relationship with the current director
" "After coming to Philadelphia, he went to the Philadelphia Museum of Art for the first time, and then went to your gallery, which makes people have to wonder
" "He has been in the gallery for so long, has he found the secrets hidden in the gallery, should we be on guard?"
As this series of questions was thrown, McCann's expression became more solemn.
After thinking for a moment, he said:
"As far as I know, every place that Shaun guy goes, he will visit major local museums, and some museums will even go many times",
"Such as the Metropolitan Museum of Art and MOMA in New York, the Boston Museum of Art, etc."
"From this point of view, that guy should not be coming for us
" "Before coming to my gallery, He has also been to several other antique shops and galleries, and has swept up a lot of antique art
" "Although he bought a few paintings and a sculpture in the gallery, those things are not our hidden treasures, and he is more fond of Chinese antique artworks
" "Besides, I am very confident in my technology, even if Shaun that guy, I can't see any flaws
" "Whew!"
The other white man let out a long breath, and his expression relaxed a little.
The next moment, the guy also poured himself a glass of wine, and then went straight to dry.
"As long as Sean, this bastard, is not coming at us, then I will be relieved!"
"This legendary guy is really amazing, even magical and terrifying!"
McCann nodded, then added
, "This is indeed a magical fellow, amazing!"
"Although he is not coming for us, we still have to be careful
" "With the arrival of this bastard, Philadelphia is bound to set off a storm, the more low-key we are, the better"
Just when the two guys were plotting, Xiao Ran they had finished lunch.
After a short break, led by Timothy, the two sides walked into the conference room of the Philadelphia Museum of Art and began to talk again.
