He Shouheng looked at Chen Xiu again in the face of the gambling king's praise, and couldn't help feeling guilty: "He treated me so sincerely, but he didn't know that I was with him with ulterior motives."

He Rongsheng smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, I heard that you have an antique shop in Anshan. In this way, your ability to appraise treasures should be quite good!"

"I don't know the twelve zodiac signs, how much do you know?"

Chen Xiu trembled all over and blurted out: "He Sheng, are you talking about the bronze beast of the twelve zodiac signs of the Old Summer Palace?"

He Rongsheng first mentioned treasure appraisal and the twelve zodiac signs, which naturally refers to the ordinary twelve zodiac signs. The only thing he can mention is the bronze head of the twelve zodiac signs that were kidnapped by foreign coalition forces in the late Qing Dynasty.

The bronze statue of the beast head of the twelve zodiac signs of the Old Summer Palace was originally part of the fountain outside the Haiyan Hall of the Old Summer Palace. It was a red bronze statue from the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty. In the late Qing Dynasty, Western coalition forces from eight countries invaded the Xia Dynasty and burned the Old Summer Palace. The bronze statue of the beast head began to be lost overseas.

In addition to the artistic value of the province, these twelve bronze heads represent the humiliating history more than a hundred years ago, and are the eternal pain of the Xia people.

Therefore, in the summer collection world, all bloody collectors always think about how to bring the twelve zodiac signs back to summer from overseas and wash away those humiliations.

"That's right."

"A few years ago, I bought a horse head from overseas and donated it to the country..."

"It turns out that He Sheng, you are working hard behind the horse's return!" Chen Xiu said in surprise.

More than ten years ago, there were news reports that a patriotic businessman from Hong Kong and Macao mysteriously donated the head of the horse among the twelve zodiac signs. Unexpectedly, this mysterious businessman was the gambling king He Rongsheng!

"Now our country has become prosperous and strong, but the humiliating history of more than a hundred years ago cannot be forgotten."

"I tried every means to find the head of the horse for the country, but I don't want the young people in our country to forget that humiliating history!"

Chen Xiu immediately felt awe of the gambling king in his heart, and at the same time he felt that the rich people of Hong Kong and Macau, such as Guo Yingdong and He Rongsheng, were very different from those coal bosses who suddenly broke out in the mainland. They always held a passionate patriotism towards Xia.

“There will be a Sotheby’s Spring Auction on the Island of Australia tomorrow.”

"There is a dragon leader at the auction. I want to help me identify the authenticity of this dragon leader at the exhibition before the auction tomorrow." He Rongsheng explained the purpose of inviting Chen Xiu over this time.

"He Sheng, don't worry. I have no choice but to define such a great thing that benefits the country and the people!" Chen Xiu patted his chest and promised.

"Okay, there are not many patriotic young people like you now!"

He Rongsheng stood up and said with a smile: "Let's go, I'll take you to see my products and help me appreciate them!"

Chen Xiu also stood up and walked out with He Rongsheng, thinking to himself: "He said he wanted me to appreciate it, and it must be a sign of my vision!"

"Yes, the value of the dragon head is definitely not great. He has never seen my treasure appraisal ability, and he will definitely not dare to believe my ability easily!"

...

Chen Xiu followed the He family and his son out of the villa. The two of them took him to a warehouse and looked at it, and were wondering: "Didn't he say he wanted to take me to see the collection, why did he take me here!"

He Shouheng went up to open the warehouse door, and the light inside turned on automatically.

"Mr. Chen, please!"

"He Sheng, please!"

Chen Xiu followed the gambling king into the warehouse and was immediately shocked by the first collection inside. He finally understood why He Rongsheng wanted to use a warehouse to collect it. Ordinary villas really couldn't put these things.

This is not the first time Chen Xiu has visited the collection of rich people. For example, the collection of his master Zhang Haishan uses a garage to make a storage room. The collection is expensive and no longer has many;

Ye Hongfei and Tang Ren used the first-floor villa at home as a storage room. The collection was about multiple words, and it was hard to describe whether it was a fine one;

Gong Changchun's collection is different from the three of them. He focuses on the artistic value of the collection itself, regardless of its price.

But the collections of the gambling king here are different from those of the four of them. In general, they are just the word "big"!

What comes to Chen Xiu’s eyes is a house!

That's right,

It's not a pocket house, but a whole house with white walls, blue bricks, and gray rubble. A Hui-style ancient building is right in front of Chen Xiu's eyes.

When He Shouheng saw Chen Xiu's surprise, he couldn't help but smile and said, "This house was from the Daoguang period of Jiaqing. It has a very Hui-style architecture style. In the early years, the local Z-mansion was about to be demolished and rebuilt. My father knew it. He couldn't bear to let such an antique building be razed to the ground, so he bought it and demolished it back to O Island."

"This...how much does it cost!"

Obviously, collecting this house is also the masterpiece of the gambling king. Among so many rich collectors, there are many blue and white, famous paintings, and copybooks. However, he can be said that it is not only Xia, but also the only one in the world.

"I bought this house in the 1980s, but I didn't spend much money, but I took it down after spending $30,000!"

"However, in order to rebuild the house as it is, I spent more than ten times more than buying a house."

"During the demolition, I asked the workers to use a camera to take pictures of every brick and tile of the house. When demolishing, I took pictures and numbers. It took a year to dismantle and dismantle the front and back, and used for forty largest containers to transport the courtyard back to Ou Island."

"Then it took a year to rebuild this courtyard!"

Chen Xiu was secretly shocked. This kind of collection is really not something that ordinary people can afford. Let alone buying a courtyard, demolition, reinstalling time and cost.

Damn it, at least you have to have such a large piece of land to put down such a large "collection"!

Especially in places like Hong Kong and Macao where every inch of land is valuable!

The most proudest collection in He Rong's life was this courtyard. When he saw Chen Xiuyue, he was surprised and satisfied with his vanity. He pointed to the tree in the middle of the yard and said, "This osmanthus tree was also packed and brought back from the original yard. It did not change its original charm at all."

“…”

Chen Xiu couldn't speak for a long time, and he really didn't express his shock at this moment. If he had to say what he felt in his heart, he only said: "It's so good to have money!"

If possible, he would always want to create such an antique courtyard to collect.

"Go in, go inside, I'll take you to see other collections!"

"This... this house is still useful? It won't collapse, right?"

He Rongsheng laughed and scolded, "It's okay to live in a normal place. Do you think you're just watching after spending so much effort? I often come here to drink tea and greet guests when I have time!"
