Supreme Sacred Ring, Carefree Tycoon!
In the 80s, a good-quality old Hainan Huanghuali round-backed armchair from the Qing Dynasty could be yours for just twenty yuan. Now, two million yuan o...
Therefore, investing in antiques and artworks is actually a very good business, of course, the premise is that you invest in antiques and artworks early enough. For example, Old Mike followed Yang Jing's instructions and started investing in antiques and artworks in the early 1980s, which was naturally a very good time. If you invest in this industry in the new century, it will not make much sense.
In general, the collection of this museum alone is now worth no less than 20 billion US dollars!
It is no exaggeration to say that if Yang Jing is penniless in the future, just selling these antique artworks will be enough for him to live comfortably for the rest of his life.
After the escort convoy arrived, the Dark Shield people who were responsible for guarding the museum took over the rest of the work. Although this museum is called a museum, it has never been open to the public since Old Mike took over. To put it bluntly, this museum was bought by Old Mike specifically to be used as a safe.
Although it would be safer to store these antiques in a bank vault, it would easily expose the specific conditions of these antiques. So old Mike was very wise to buy the museum directly as a safe deposit box.
After all, it's a private museum. No one can say anything else if I don't open it to the public. Besides, Dark Shield is not short of people. A bunch of trustworthy retired soldiers are stationed here and take turns to guard it 24 hours a day. I guess no thief would dare to set his eyes on it.
This is a private museum. If anyone dares to commit a crime here, those retired soldiers equipped with weapons will definitely let those thieves experience what it is like to be on the battlefield in Iraq or Afghanistan...
There is strength in numbers. Besides, these boxes do not need to be opened and rearranged after they are transported to the museum. Yang Jing just needs to open them and check them, and then arrange them in order. So a group of people worked for more than ten minutes, and all the boxes were moved into the museum.
Seeing that all the treasures had safely entered the museum, Yang Jing and Nathan were completely relieved.
When Old Mike comes tomorrow with the nominal curator of the museum, he can issue the "Cultural Relics Exchange" documents for all the items in the museum's collection. Yang Jing also has a Grand Canal Museum, and there is nothing else that can be said about the cultural relics exchange between the two museums.
As for those antiques and artworks that are not allowed to leave the country, who is in charge? Who can manage them? With the connections that the Dragon Fund has now, even the US Customs cannot manage these antiques and artworks that are exchanged for cultural relics.
At worst, those sensitive antique artworks can be directly released as “imitations”!
Of course, these formalities still need to be done by experts. The nominal curator knows best which artworks can be exported and which cannot. The curator still knows best how to handle the exchange of cultural relics. With experts, money and connections, everything will be fine.
However, it would take several days to complete these formalities, so Yang Jing was not going to wait here any longer. After talking to Old Mike tomorrow, he would need to return to China. There were still a series of things he needed to handle after returning to China.
That night, Yang Jing moved into the apartment on Fifth Avenue, which was also the first apartment Yang Jing bought in New York.
After the U.S. stock market crash that year, U.S. real estate prices plummeted. Old Mike took the opportunity to buy Cole Smith a top-floor duplex apartment on Fifth Avenue. This was also the first property Yang Jing purchased in the past.
The location of this house is very good, located in the southeast corner of Central Park, opposite Central Park and next to the Plaza Hotel. The house has three floors, the top two floors are duplex, and there is a huge sky garden outside, with a total area of more than 12,000 square feet, which is about 1,100 square meters.
When I bought this house, I spent only $9 million because the house price plummeted. Now, the value of this house has exceeded $100 million. If it was at the peak of the US house price before the subprime mortgage crisis, the price of this house would have reached $150 million!
However, after buying this house, Yang Jing rarely lived in it. When he was in New York, he would spend most of his time in the manor in East Hampton, Long Island. This time, Yang Jing didn't want to go to Long Island again, so he lived here.
Although the house has been bought for more than 30 years and no one has lived in it for a long time, it is well maintained. Although no one lives in this house, the annual property fee is extremely high. If the property management company of this apartment building dares not to maintain the house well, Yang Jing can sue the property management company and make it go bankrupt!
Only by living in this kind of top-floor luxury apartment that is dozens of stories high can Yang Jing experience firsthand what it means to be a super-rich class.
No matter what, no matter how much hardship you have endured in the past, when you stand on the large rooftop outside this house and look down at the Central Park opposite, all the hardship will be blown away by the wind!
This feeling is so wonderful...
