Jianbao life

Chapter 462 So Relatives
Hearing what Lao Wu said, the old man basically believed it, nodded, and cautiously took out a small gray cloth bag from his pocket, and said, "That's fine, I'll say the same thing, these two pieces of jade are worth 10 yuan. I won’t sell it for less than ten thousand yuan.”

"Master, you see that this place is being renovated and it's not convenient, let's go upstairs and sit down first!"

Chu Chen turned to Zhou Wenping and said, "Brother Zhou, please take this uncle upstairs for tea first."

"Don't be so troublesome, just stay here!" The old man shook his head and said.

Chu Chen smiled and said, "Master, we are talking about business after all, and it will take some time to confirm the antiques, but don't worry, it won't take too long, half an hour will do."

The old man thought for a while before agreeing: "Alright then!..."

When Zhou Wenping led the old man upstairs, Chu Chen asked the fifth elder, "Fifth Brother, who was that just now?"

Lao Wu explained: "This is the case. This man's name is Sun Dayou. He used to be a technical backbone of a state-owned enterprise. He just retired this year. I heard from my friend this morning that his granddaughter has leukemia, and his family is short of ten. Laiwan said that he wanted to sell the family's ancestral jade. In the morning, I went to the next door to his house and asked about it. Came to the store."

Knowing that this was the case, Chu Chen nodded and said, "Okay, then let's go upstairs!"

When they came to the VIP room above, Zhou Wenping had already made a cup of tea for Sun Dayou, and Sun Dayou took out the two pieces of jade he mentioned, and kept looking out, probably wanting to Get the deal done fast.

Chu Chen sat down, smiled and said to Sun Dayou: "Mr. Sun, please have some tea first, and I'll take a look at these two pieces of jade."

"Okay, let's see!" After finishing speaking, Sun Dayou made a gesture of invitation.

Sun Dayou's two pieces of jade were a jade bi and a jade huang, and Chu Chen picked up the jade bi first.

When it comes to jade bi, one must not talk about jade yuan and jade ring. In real life, many people will confuse these three things. In fact, as long as the meaning is clear, it is still very easy to distinguish them.

"Erya Shiqi" pointed out: "Meat twice as good is called Bi, as much as meat is called Yuan, and meat as good as one is called Ring." Guo Pu's note: "Meat, edge; good, hole." Xing Yushu : "Flesh, the edge is good, the hole is also, the side that is twice as large as the hole is called Bi, the hole is big and the side is small, it is called Yuan, and the side and hole are equal to each other, it is called Huan."

The shape of the three utensils is explained here very clearly. "Meat" refers to the surrounding edges, and "good" refers to the hole in the middle. That is to say, the names of the three are determined by the size of the round hole in the center. Yuan, the one with the small hole is the bi, and the one with the hole diameter equal to the edge of the jade part is the ring.

The piece of jade in Chu Chen's hand should be carved from Hetian white jade.Both sides are embossed in the same style, the inside of the Jomon circle is decorated with cirrus moiré, and the outside is decorated with double-body dragon patterns.The jade surface is smooth and moist, covered with oxidized white spots and chicken blood red Qin.

After Chu Chen picked up the magnifying glass and carefully observed the piece of jade, he had an idea in his mind. Then he put the jade back and picked up the jade huang next to it.

Jade huang is a kind of curved jade ware. It is generally believed that "half bi is called huang". In fact, most huang are only one-third of the bi, some even only one-fourth, and only a few are close to one-half.And the jade huang in front of him can't even reach half of the jade, it can't even reach one-third of it.

This piece of jade huang is also carved from high-quality white jade. The jade is moist and yellowish-brown.

This huang has a beautiful shape, vivid and gorgeous patterns, and mostly inscribed lines to represent the decorations. It should be a jade huang from the Warring States period, and from the perspective of shape, it is probably not available to ordinary nobles. It can be said to be a fine piece of jade in the Warring States period.

Seeing that Chu Chen had put the jade huang back to its original position, Sun Dayou quickly asked with a somewhat apprehensive expression, "Brother, do you want these two pieces of jade worth 10 yuan?"

Chu Chen smiled and said, "Yes, let's sign an agreement now, no problem?"

Sun Dayou was slightly taken aback when he heard the words. He originally thought that the two sides would have to argue for a while, but he didn't expect Chu Chen to agree so happily. This made him quite unexpected, so he quickly reacted and said repeatedly:
"Sign! Sign! Sign now!"

After signing the agreement, just as Chu Chen was about to take Sun Dayou to transfer the money, Sun Dayou asked, "Brother, I would like to take the liberty to ask, are these two pieces of jade bis of mine the same?" Sengoku?"

Chu Chen shook his head and said, "Only the jade huang is, and the other jade bi is an antique jade."

"Ah! Then why do you still buy them? You don't feel sorry for my old man, do you?" Sun Dayou asked in surprise when he heard the words.

Hearing what he said, Chu Chen felt very strange, and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Sun Dayou said with some doubts: "It was my nephew who told me that. He is in the antique business. After he came to see these two pieces of jade yesterday, he told me that one piece is real and the other piece is just a fake. , asking me to sell it to him for 8 yuan."

"But it's not like he doesn't know about my two pieces of jade. They were given to me when my father passed away. How could they be imitations? So I said to think about it, but I didn't agree to him at the time. He originally said that today I will come back tonight to discuss the price of these two pieces of jade."

Hearing what Sun Dayou said, Zhou Wenping and Lao Wu couldn't help but look at each other. Chu Chen was speechless, and asked with some doubts: "Old Sun, I would like to ask, why do you think these two pieces of jade are worth 10 yuan?" Money?"

"A friend of mine owns a piece of jade from the Warring States period. It looks tattered, but it sold for 3 yuan. My two pieces of jade are much better than that one. 10 yuan should be quite appropriate!"

Speaking of this, Sun Dayou asked a little strangely: "Is there anything wrong with this?"

There is nothing wrong with Sun Dayou thinking so. After all, it is impossible for ordinary people to know the market conditions at any time, and the Internet is not developed these days, and ordinary people do not have any special channels to understand the market conditions. Make an offer based on your own ideas.

But Sun Dayou's nephew is really unscrupulous. Knowing that Sun Dayou's family is in urgent need of money, he still wants to lower the price. It is really inhumane.

So Chu Chen explained to him: "Old Sun, your idea is very wrong. In the antique business, the ultimate value of things is actually determined by craftsmanship and rarity. It must be [-]% cheaper than the complete vessel, and the value of the complete vessel cannot be calculated by adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing the value of the damaged vessel.”

"In addition, although this piece of jade is an antique jade, it is an antique jade from the Song Dynasty, and it is not worthless like the modern Gaogu jade counterfeit."

The Song Dynasty was the most popular era of jade antiques in Chinese history.Due to the enthusiastic advocacy of the emperor and the heartfelt support of the ministers, imitation of antiques became popular for a while, and many antique jade products were left behind.

Generally speaking, the antique jade wares of the Song Dynasty have three characteristics. First, the jade quality is mostly local jade, and Hetian jade is rarely used.This is because at that time, the Northern Song Dynasty and the Western Regions were separated by Xixia, and Hetian jade materials were not easy to obtain, so the price was extremely expensive, and it was not affordable for a large number of antique jade carvings.

In the Southern Song Dynasty, it was even more difficult to get good materials, so most of the antique jades in the Song Dynasty were not very good.

The second point is that the shape lacks the style of fighting in the Han Dynasty. Because the ancient jade in the Song Dynasty was rare, it was usually carved based on a few words in ancient books. Feel.The third is that the carving is not as natural and smooth as ancient jade, but a little stagnant.

Chu Chen went on to say: "But your antique jade bib from the Song Dynasty is not only made of Hetian white jade, but also very delicate and natural. In addition, although this Jixueqin is fake, it is made of rainbow grass. The raw material is old oil, and the color of the oil is simple and elegant, which is really rare."

"Generally speaking, this piece of jade bi is a rare and rare piece of antique jade from the Song Dynasty. As for your two pieces of jade, I bought them for 10 yuan. They are definitely worth it. In our business terms In other words, it was picked up and missed.”

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, Sun Dayou opened his mouth, and really didn't know what to say. Although he really regretted that the things were sold cheaply, after all, he set the price himself, and he couldn't blame others, and they were kind. He explained it to you, and he couldn't do that kind of remorse.

However, he was still quite angry at this moment, and the object of his anger was his nephew. Let alone lending money to his family, he knew the value of the things, so it was fine if he didn't give more, but he still lowered the price. If it's a friend, then it's okay, what makes him most angry is that the other party is actually his own nephew, it's really not a thing!
At this time, Chu Chen said: "Old Sun, let's transfer the money now!"

Sun Dayou hurriedly said: "OK!..."

When they arrived at the bank, Chu Chen directly transferred 15 to Sun Dayou, which surprised Sun Dayou very much.

Chu Chen explained with a smile: "Mr. Sun, the [-] is just a token of my heart, and to be honest, I am just borrowing flowers to offer Buddha."

Speaking of this, he wrote another phone number to Sun Dayou and said: "This is the phone number of Director Miao of the Military Hospital. If you want to transfer to another hospital, you can call him. When the time comes, report my name." OK."

In fact, to be honest, the value of that jade huang alone is more than 100 million, and it is not impossible for Chu Chen to give more, but there are some things that can only be done properly, otherwise Others will not appreciate you.

Sun Dayou was so moved that he didn't know what to say, and after a while he bowed to Chu Chen and said, "Thank you for your kindness, I, Sun Dayou, will definitely remember your kindness in my heart. ..."
