Jianbao life

Chapter 397 Black Market ([-])

Bao Wen was very happy that the first item was sold at a high price. He waved his hand and asked the staff to bring up the second item.

Just like before, after Bao Wen gave a brief introduction, everyone stepped forward to observe.

Although Chu Chen was also on stage this time, Qian Changxing sat in his seat with no expression on his face. He had been warned by Yu Guangjie just now, and he didn't dare to go on stage even if he wanted to.

This three-legged stove is really nothing to look at. Although it looks like everything is right, but after careful identification, Chu Chen can still see that the gold paste on the three-legged stove is not real gold, but chemical gold plating. In short, this thing is a fake.

However, what surprised Chu Chen was that even though it was a fake, there were actually two bidders at the scene. After some competition, the three-legged stove was sold by one of them at a price of 300 yuan.

Seeing Chu Chen's strange expression, Zhu Dafu explained to him in a low voice.

It turns out that the market for antiques is gradually rising, so many investors have set their sights on this industry, and the two bidders just now are one of these people.

After hearing Zhu Dafu's explanation, Chu Chen felt a little speechless. Antiques do have investment and collection value, but first of all, you have to buy the real one. If you buy a fake one, what kind of money can you make?

Let’s just talk about those two just now. From the performance just now, it can be seen that their level of antique appreciation is limited. If this is the case, then you must bring a palm eye master when you come to the black market. Without a palm eye master, it’s half-baked level, you are not here to make money, but to give money to others!
At this time, Bao Wen was in a very good mood, there was no way, why would someone cry and shout to give him money?Don't talk about him, almost everyone will happily call each other "good guy" when they encounter this kind of thing.

"Everyone, please pay attention. The following item is a heavyweight item in this auction. We managed to persuade the master to obtain it. It is a Begonia-style flower pot from Ge Kiln in Song Dynasty. Please have a look!"

While speaking, a staff member put a begonia-style flowerpot on the table. From a distance, there were obvious features of gold wire and iron wire and iron feet, which immediately attracted the attention of everyone present.

Needless to say, no one at the scene would be willing to give up the opportunity to watch the five famous kilns of the Song Dynasty. They stepped forward one after another and took out a magnifying glass to observe carefully.

This flower pot is in the shape of a four-petal begonia, with a straight mouth and a slightly slanted edge, a sloping wall, a flat bottom, and four ruyi cloud-shaped feet under it.There are five nail burn marks in the heart.Gray beige glaze is applied inside and outside, and the bottom of the foot is unglazed and black, commonly known as "iron foot".

The surface of this pot is covered with gold and iron wires, the cracks are naturally even and small, and the glazed surface and the carcass are closely connected, criss-crossing, which makes people feel that it has a strong artistic charm.

It is indeed no problem to say that this flower pot is a feature of Ge kiln craftsmanship, but if it is said to be Ge kiln in Song Dynasty, it is open to discussion, because some details of the appearance of this flower pot are different from that of Chu Chen. Ge kiln tripod furnace is not the same.

Finally, after careful identification by Chu Chen, he felt that this flowerpot should be a work of Ge Kiln fired in the Yuan Dynasty, and the results given by Lingbaoyan also confirmed his judgment.

"Ge Kiln Begonia-style flowerpot in the Song Dynasty, the starting price is [-] yuan, please bid!"

"20 million!"

As soon as Bao Wen's voice fell, the person who took the photo of the tripod furnace just now added [-] directly.

"50 million!"

But obviously Yu Guangjie was more ruthless than him, and raised the price to 50 at once.This price immediately discouraged some people at the scene. After all, this is a black market auction. Except for the organizer, no one knows the origin of this item. If it is a stolen item, even if it is bought, it must be kept. .

Some people are afraid that they won't be able to keep it, while some people don't have the money to buy it. They are not as well-informed as Zuo Lei. Like Dafu, he only brought 30 yuan to this auction, and at this moment he can only sigh.

"60!" Seeing that no one else followed suit, Kang Yuming was ready to exert his strength.

Yu Guangjie glanced at Kang Yuming expressionlessly, and then said lightly: "100 million!"

Kang Yuming chuckled and said, "One million and one million!"

"110 million!"

"110 million!"

"..."

"130!" Kang Yuming glanced at Yu Guangjie playfully.

"140 million!" Yu Guangjie gritted his teeth and quoted the price. At this time, his breathing was a little short, and it seemed that he was very angry by Kang Yuming.

Kang Yuming shrugged his shoulders and refused to follow. He actually only brought 100 million this time. What he did just now was to raise the price, so he had to accept it as soon as it was good. Otherwise, he would not have so much cash at that time. Come on. Saying that there is nothing wrong, but it would be a big shame.

"150 million!"

Just when Yu Guangjie thought he was sure of winning, Chu Chen raised his hand and bid again.

"Xiao Chen, have you brought it for so many years this time?" Seeing that Chu Chen also joined the competition, Zhu Dafu asked worriedly. It's not easy.

Chu Chen pointed to a box beside him, and nodded with a smile, which made Zhu Dafu feel relieved immediately.

Yu Guangjie took a deep look at Chu Chen and said, "180 million!"

"190 million!" Up to now, Chu Chen still doesn't understand that Yu Guangjie came here just for this brother kiln flower pot.

Moreover, he had noticed before that the bag Yu Guangjie was carrying should weigh less than 1.15 catties, and the weight of a hundred-yuan bill was 200 grams, that is to say, he brought less than 250 million yuan in cash, so He made an offer without hesitation.

"200 million!" Anxious Yu Guangjie directly added another [-], raising the reserve price by twenty times.

Chu Chen turned his head to look at Yu Guangjie, smiled, and stopped talking.If this price is the real Song Ge Kiln, then 200 million is really not expensive. Yuan Ge Kiln, although it has a high collection value, but even if it is auctioned, it is only a few hundred thousand, and 200 million will at least lose more than half of it. .

Yu Guangjie gave Chu Chen a vicious look, picked up his bag and went to the counter to check out.

"Xiao Chen, did you come here this time just for this flower pot?" Taking advantage of this, Zhu Dafu asked curiously.

Chu Chen smiled and said, "If there's only one thing from Ge Kiln this time, then I'm here for it."

Kang Yuming shook his head when he heard the words: "Then it's a pity that you didn't get the picture? If I knew you wanted to buy it, I would have lent you my money."

Although he knew that Kang Yu wanted to use his own hands to deal with Yu Guangjie, Chu Chen still expressed his gratitude to him, then shook his head and said, "It's no pity if I didn't buy it, I'll buy it next time I meet."

Originally, Yu Guangjie was going to leave with what he got, but he just heard what Chu Chen said, so he changed his mind, and then whispered something to Bao Wen.

Probably because of Yu Guangjie's request, Bao Wen's expression was a little hesitant at first, but in the end, thinking that Yu Guangjie was a big customer after all, he could only nod his head in agreement.

Seeing that Bao Wen agreed, Yu Guangjie walked up to Chu Chen with the Ge Kiln flowerpot he had just obtained, and said with a smile: "Young Master Chu, I finally met you, a closed disciple of Mr. Liu. Please comment on this Geyao Begonia-style flowerpot."

Chu Chen knew that Yu Guangjie just wanted to disgust himself. Even if he refused, Yu Guangjie couldn't force him. He couldn't justify himself if he wasn't perfect, so he pretended to hesitate and said:

"It's a little inappropriate, you see, other people are still waiting for the next lot!"

In fact, Yu Guangjie didn't just want to disgust Chu Chen. If Chu Chen didn't agree just now, he would fabricate rumors that Chu Chen was defiant and arrogant. Anyway, Mr. Liu couldn't find any evidence that he was spreading rumors. There is no way to take him.

Now that Chu Chen didn't explicitly refuse, then he would make the next best thing and ask Chu Chen to comment. In this way, if this Geyao flowerpot has a relationship with Mr. Liu, its value will definitely increase a lot.

"Young Master Chu, you are overthinking. I believe everyone will not refuse, do you think so?" Yu Guangjie looked around with a smile.

The others all expressed their desire to hear Chu Chen's opinion with the mentality of watching the excitement.Although Zhu Dafu and Kang Yuming were a little unhappy about this, they didn't want to provoke public anger, and besides, they couldn't be Chu Chen's master.

"OK then!"

Chu Chen nodded with a somewhat embarrassed expression, then put on his gloves, took out the flower pot from the box, observed it carefully, and finally put the flower pot to his ear and tapped it lightly. Put the pot back in the box.

The reason why Chu Chen re-observed the flowerpot was not only to understand it more carefully, but also to put on a show so as not to arouse others' suspicion after telling the details later.

Seeing Chu Chen's sophisticated appraisal techniques, the others all nodded secretly. This person is worthy of being called Liu Lao's closed disciple. Although he is young, he does seem to have a way.

However, Zhu Dafu, who was sitting next to Chu Chen, was a little puzzled at this moment. He also heard the sound Chu Chen made when he tapped just now. I became suspicious.

After patiently waiting for Chu Chen to finish observing, Yu Guangjie smiled and asked, "Young Master Chu, what do you think of this thing?"
Chu Chen clicked his tongue lightly, looking a bit embarrassed.

Seeing this, Yu Guangjie was taken aback for a moment, and thought to himself, is there something wrong with this flowerpot? ...
