Bernard Ernault did not expect that Ye Chen would fall out immediately as soon as he said he would fall out.

He didn't dare to joke about his qualifications for the auction. Although he had a fortune worth over one trillion yuan, it could be said that these fortunes were worthless once he died to enjoy them.

So, he almost lost his temper in an instant, and hurriedly put on a groveling face and begged: "Sir, don't be angry yet, if you have something to say, please tell Mr. Chen that I am willing to distribute the goods!"

After saying that, he stretched out his trembling hand, pointed at the Jade Seal of the Kingdom in Zhang Ermao's arms, gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it the Jade Seal of the Kingdom? I bought it!"

Ye Chen chuckled and said, "Just buying a national jade seal may not be enough..."

Bernard Ernault's heart twitched, he clenched his fists, and asked in a trembling voice: "Then...then what else do you want me to buy?!"

After that, he took a look at Zhang Ermao's big bag of fake goods and said quickly: "How about I buy the bronze wine bottle just now? Isn't that okay?"

Ye Chen shook his head, pulled out the sales list he had made in the store at noon, and said: "You can see for yourself, our boss has distributed dozens of large and small products in your store, and now you are in our store

There are only two kinds of products here, which is really unreasonable, right?"

Bernard Ernault blurted out: "But...but the total of all the goods in your list is only one million yuan! This...this national jade seal is only three to four hundred million yuan,

The amount has already exceeded hundreds of times. Even if you want to retaliate, you can't be so cruel..."

Ye Chen said seriously: "We are all businessmen, and what we pay attention to is courtesy. If you want to insist that this kind of courtesy is revenge, it would be a bit boring. I just said, we don't do forced buying and selling.

Son, if you are not happy, we don’t have to do this business."

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault..." Bernard Ailnault was completely scared. He knew that the distribution of hundreds of millions or more than one billion yuan was a trivial matter. The most terrifying thing was that if the auction

I successfully purchased the rejuvenation elixir at a price of over 10 billion U.S. dollars, and the organizer suddenly asked me to distribute the goods on the spot. That was an astronomical figure!

So, he hurriedly bowed his hands to Ye Chen and said: "Sir, I used the wrong words just now. Please don't take it to heart... Just tell me directly how much goods I need to distribute and which goods I need to distribute. As long as

Within the scope of what I can bear, I will not say one more word!"

As he spoke, he said with a bit of pleading: "In addition, please help me tell your boss that I express my most sincere apology to him. From now on, any product produced by any of my brands will be

For any product, I will arrange for someone to prepare two copies for your boss. Even if there are dozens of different colors of the same model, I will also arrange for someone to prepare two copies for each color to him. I just hope that he can buy it in the future.

Raise your hand and let me go."

Ye Chen said calmly: "We'll talk about the future later. Let's talk about your distribution now."

With that said, he waved to Zhang Ermao and ordered: "Ermao, please bring out the imperial seal and the bronze wine bottle to Mr. Erno."

"Okay." Zhang Ermao nodded quickly, diligently took out the two fake cultural relics and placed them on the table.

Ye Chen then said: "Take a look at what other good things you have in there, and give some to our Mr. Erno."

Zhang Ermao quickly opened the package, searched inside for a while, and found a scroll. He then handed it to Ye Chen and said, "Master Ye, this is a good thing. Please open it and take a look."

Ye Chen took the scroll smoothly, and as soon as he started to touch it, he could tell that it was made of old rice paper, and it was definitely a modern painting.

Then, he slowly opened the painting and was surprised when he saw the whole picture.

This... turned out to be a world classic painting - the Mona Lisa.

Moreover, it is the Mona Lisa in Chinese traditional painting style!

When Bernard Erno saw this, he wanted to die.

In his opinion, this is no longer as simple as insulting his IQ, right?

Ye Chen himself was dumbfounded. He looked up at Zhang Ermao, his eyes full of questions.

Then, Ye Chen winked at him, which meant: You piece of shit, I really don't know how to blow it, you should do it yourself.

Although Zhang Ermao was frightened by the astronomical figures that Ye Chen was talking about just now, he is still an old liar who has been in the antique street for many years and has very rich practical experience, so he quickly adapted to this routine.

So he chuckled and quickly said to Bernard Ernault: "Mr. Ernault, the painting I introduced to you today can be said to be enough to shock the entire Eastern and Western painting circles!"

After that, he said: "Everyone knows that Leonardo da Vinci began to create the Mona Lisa in 1500 AD, but let me tell you, this painting is not actually Da Vinci's original work.

It was done by a great Chinese painter named Zhao Mengfu (fǔ) in the late Song Dynasty and early Yuan Dynasty."

Before he finished speaking, he pointed to the painting in Ye Chen's hand and said seriously: "Here, it's the one in Master Ye's hand! And the one painted by Da Vinci was copied and modified based on this one.

The second creation, to put it harshly, is plagiarism.”

Bernard Ernault was about to burst into tears and blurted out: "Is this possible?! Leonardo da Vinci is my most admired master, and his Mona Lisa is also a masterpiece. How could it be plagiarism!"

Zhang Ermao's expression was serious, and he said seriously: "Look, this has touched your cognitive blind spot! Let me tell you, this painting was created by Mr. Zhao Mengfu and Mr. Zhao under the order of Kublai Khan, the Great Khan of the Yuan Dynasty.

, the approximate creation time should be at the end of 1275 AD, more than two hundred years earlier than Leonardo da Vinci. Isn’t it clear at a glance who copied who?”

"That's nonsense!" Bernard Ernault said angrily: "This is absolutely impossible! And see for yourself, the woman in your painting also has a Western face! How could there be a Western-faced woman in China at that time?

?!What do you have to say about such a big bug?”

Zhang Ermao didn't panic at all, he smiled, and said quickly: "So you have to be patient and listen to me introduce the situation! In the year 1275 AD, a major event with far-reaching consequences occurred in the history of the world. Do you know it?

What?"

Bernard Ernault said angrily: "I don't know!"

Zhang Ermao said very seriously: "Mr. Ernault, I'm not telling you, you can't just make money. You should read more and understand history occasionally."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Bernard Ernault's expression of almost vomiting blood, he said with a profound expression: "Let me tell you, this is the year 1275 AD, which is the time when the famous Western traveler Marco Polo arrived in China!"

After that, Zhang Ermao looked at Bernard Ailnault and asked: "You should know about "Marco Polo's Travels", right?"

Bernard Ernault was going crazy and gritted his teeth and said: "I know! But what does this have to do with the Mona Lisa!"

Zhang Ermao shook his head and sighed: "It's true that those who don't know are fearless."

After finishing speaking, he continued to explain: "Let me tell you, Marco Polo went through all kinds of hardships and came to Yushangdu in the summer of 1275, and was warmly received by Kublai Khan."

"In order to promote cultural exchanges between the East and the West, Kublai Khan ordered Zhao Mengfu, a famous painter at the time, to demonstrate our superb Chinese painting skills to Marco Polo and his party."

"At that time, Marco Polo happened to have a maid named Mona Lisa by his side!"

"Mr. Zhao Mengfu used this maid as a model to create this painting!"

"The entire creation lasted half a year, from the summer of 1275 to the winter of 1275."

Speaking of this, Zhang Ermao couldn't help but sigh: "At that time, Kublai Khan gave this painting to Marco Polo. Marco Polo really regarded it as a treasure and kept it with him until he brought it back to the West. Unfortunately, Marco Polo returned to the West. Later, he went to jail because of the turmoil, and the painting was lost in the turmoil."

"Two hundred years later, this painting passed into the hands of Leonardo da Vinci. Da Vinci was deeply inspired after reading it and imitated it day and night for more than ten years before he created the version of the Mona Lisa that is known to the world!"

"After his painting was completed, he gave the Mona Lisa painted by Zhao Mengfu to his servants to burn. His servants couldn't bear the destruction of such a masterpiece, so Only then did he quietly give it to his relatives, and then this painting was passed down!"

Having said this, Zhang Ermao looked at Bernard Ernault and asked seriously: "Mr. Ernault, do you understand now?"
