"Xiao Jing, why has this museum not opened yet?" Shao Mingzhong was also puzzled when he looked at the museum with a closed door in front of him. He had already learned about the information about the Grand Canal Leisure Park before he came, so he naturally knew that the Grand Canal Museum is the essence of the entire Grand Canal Leisure Park. However, the leisure park is now open, but why is this museum still silent?

"Uncle Shao, mainly because some of the exhibits in the museum are not ready yet. I still have some expensive exhibits overseas that cannot be transported into the country for the time being. You also know that there are tax policies on antique art in China, which makes me embarrassed..." Yang Jing shook his head with a wry smile and said, "So, it will take some time for the museum to open, but this time should not be too long. I estimate that this museum will be able to open in at most half a year."

Shao Mingzhong also shook his head helplessly. As a senior official in charge of culture in Shandong Province, he naturally knew the current domestic rules on the entry of antique artworks abroad, especially the high tax revenue that made people feel a little scared.

But he is not the leader of the country and cannot change this status quo.

"Uncle Shao, Uncle Yang, do you want to go in and have a look? Although the museum has not opened now, it has almost been packed inside, and some exhibits have been put into the underground vault. If you are interested, you can enjoy these treasures in advance."

Shao Mingzhong and Yang Zhengyu looked at each other, and Yang Zhengyu asked in a low voice: "Xiao Jing, is this appropriate? I mean, are there any security measures in the museum guaranteed? Will these people have any adverse impact on security after entering?"

Yang Jing smiled and said, "Uncle Yang, Uncle Shao, don't worry about this. The security measures of this museum are very strict, so it's okay for you to visit in advance."

Shao Mingzhong was not a sloppy person. He clapped his hands and said, "Okay, let's appreciate the treasures you have collected in the past few years in advance. I met Lao Bai once during a meeting in Yanjing last autumn. He praised the treasures you collected, which made me want to have a look."

The old white in Shao Mingzhong's mouth is Princess' father-in-law and Yang Jing's father-in-law. What collections are Yang Jing's father-in-law knows clearly through Princess' mouth.

"Okay, let's go in and take a look." As he said that, Yang Jing took out his cell phone and dialed a number. It was Wang Jiazan's mobile phone number. After a while, a small door on the side of the museum gate opened, and Wang Jiazan walked over in a hurry.

"Lao Wu, let me introduce you to Gaoguan Shao, who is in charge of cultural work in our Shandong Province. This is Secretary Yang, our Tianqu, and this is Mayor Chen, our Tianqu. Uncle Shao, Uncle Yang, Mayor Chen, this is my good friend of the university and the current director of the Grand Canal Museum."

Hearing Yang Jing's introduction, Wang Jiazan bowed respectfully to the leaders, but under his leadership, a group of leaders entered the museum through the small door.

At this time, the museum was still empty. Although the booth, bulletproof glass cabinet and other things had been arranged, there were no exhibits inside. Some of the treasures in Yang Jing's space were placed in the underground vault at this time.

These are all big leaders and the boss Yang Jing, who is personally accompanied, so the group easily entered the underground vault.

Of course, these leaders were also amazed during the process of entering.

Shao Mingzhong even joked: "Xiao Jing, I think the degree of your vault is even stronger than the underground vault of the bank!"

Yang Jing smiled and said nothing. Just kidding, saying nothing is too boastful, the value of the gold and banknotes stored in the underground vault of the bank is really not as valuable as the antique artwork stored in the underground vault of this museum.

For example, take the underground vault of the ICBC Tianqu Branch as an example. Although Yang Jing doesn’t know how many banknotes, gold and securities are stored in the underground vault, it must have exceeded 5 billion national coins.

But how much is the treasures stored in the underground vault of this museum? Not to mention anything else, the three bronze sculptures alone may be worth more than 5 billion national coins!

What? If you don’t believe it, then I ask you, how much is the bronze sculpture "David" made by Michelangelo himself worth?

How much is the original bronze sculpture "The Discus Thrower" made by ancient Greek sculpture master Milon himself?

Also, how much is the bronze sculpture "Picture of a Child Holding a Goose" created by Poedos, a famous sculptor of Halketon, ancient Greece in the third century BC?

To put it simply, if the bronze sculpture "David" made by Michelangelo himself was released for filming, it would definitely be a jaw-dropping price.

Although Yang Jing didn't know how much this bronze sculpture could cost, Yang Jing absolutely dared to guarantee that 500 million US dollars is definitely just a lower limit. As for the upper limit, you say that 1 billion US dollars or even more, I'm afraid someone will take pictures!

After all, this is the bronze sculpture "David" made by Michelangelo himself!

Just like you ask Leonardo da Vinci's "Mona Lisa's Smile" how much it costs and the "Broken Arm Venus" how much it costs, no one can give a specific price!

Now the underground vault is stored in the treasures of the last Tsar treasures brought by Yang Jing in Siberia. These precious antique artworks have been revealed for a long time. When they were doing cultural heritage protection work, the experts from the Palace Museum had seen them for a long time, so there was no need to store them in the space. Yang Jing took these treasures to this underground vault early to store them.

The treasures that can be transferred by Nicholas II are naturally peerless treasures that are loved by Nicholas II. But these treasures are now placed in the underground vault of Yang Jing, so when these leaders saw these treasures, they were immediately shocked and speechless.

These treasures are unique in the world, and even the most valuable jewelry is treasured by the tsars, female tsars and queens of the Romanov dynasty of Russia. The so-called worthlessness is just for other more precious antique artworks in this batch of treasures. If these jewelry are placed outside, they will immediately cause a sensation!

Shao Mingzhong is a senior official in charge of cultural work in Shandong Province. He still has some understanding of antique art.

So, when he saw the bronze "David" and the bronze "Discust Thrower", he was stunned.

"Xiao Jing, don't tell me that these two bronze sculptures are genuine?" Shao Mingzhong asked with a trembling question after a long time.

Yang Jing smiled and said in a joking tone: "Uncle Shao, congratulations on your answer right."

"Ah? Is this really the authentic product? The authentic product of Michelangelo and Miron?" Shao Mingzhong was even more shocked.

Yang Zhengyu asked in confusion: "Kei Shao, aren't the authentic products of "David" and "Discus Thrower" abroad? Why did Xiao Jing's two bronze sculptures become authentic again?"

Shao Mingzhong explained excitedly: "Old Yang, you don't know about this. Although the foreign "David" and "Discust Thrower" are all marble sculptures, they are actually copied based on bronze sculptures. The authentic products of "David" and "Discust Thrower" are actually two bronze sculptures."

"Ah? Gaoguan Shao, what do you mean is that these two bronze sculptures are actually the authentic ones?"

Shao Mingzhong had recovered at this time. He smiled bitterly and said, "You have to ask Xiaojing this. But I can tell you that if these two bronze sculptures are really genuine, then their value is enough to build several Grand Canal Leisure Gardens..."

Yang Jing shrugged and said, "Uncle Yang, Uncle Shao, I have a problem, that is, I never accept fakes. All the treasures here have been identified by many experts from the Palace Museum, and the authentic ones are clearly the authentic ones!"
