Jianbao life

Chapter 533
The antiques brought by Chu Chen this time, except for the pair of chicken bowl cups, the painting of the Bloodstone King and Zheng Banqiao, can be transferred. However, these millions of treasures and antiques cannot enjoy the opportunity of opening discounts. .

Even so, the prices of antiques in Chu Chen's store are very reasonable, so many people still come to inquire about these rare antiques. You must know that these rare antiques are not easy to see in normal times, and you may miss them. If you miss this opportunity, it may be very difficult to find the same thing next time.

Of course, when Chu Chen said that there is no discount, it is relatively speaking, and those old seniors still have to give some discount.

As for other antiques, you can enjoy a [-]% discount within three days, so there is an endless stream of buyers. If it is not stipulated that a person can only buy a maximum of two pieces, the goods in the store may be swept away.

Seeing that the business in his store is booming, Chu Chen is happy but also a little worried. If the business continues to be so good, it may be out of stock soon. If there are no antiques in the antique shop, then he will be laughed at by his colleagues.

Of course, Chu Chen's thoughts are unfounded. After all, the things he has here cost tens of thousands, even if they are discounted, they will not be so cheap. It is not very cost-effective to sell in the store.

Instead of this, they might as well go to the countryside or buy from other places.

However, it is not too cheap for these shopkeepers, but for those customers who really need it, the current discount rate is very affordable, so there are many buyers.

Chu Chen didn't know that today's net profit would be so high. At this moment, he frowned slightly and walked into the VIP room.

Seeing his appearance, Mr. Liu asked, "Achen, what are you thinking about?"
"It's not that the business is very good. I'm worried that the antiques in the store can't keep up!" Chu Chen scratched his head and said.

Uncle Wu said with a chuckle: "Among the people below, most of them are actually joining in the fun. I reckon that if there are two or three people buying things, it's already a big deal, so you don't need to worry about the goods. The key It’s just that some high-quality goods or treasures don’t run out of stock, as for the ones on the first floor, if they are really out of stock, then we can collect some at the stall!”

"What you said is that I want to go wrong!"

Chu Chen patted his forehead. He was really stupid. With his own abilities, he went to so many antique markets in the capital. You may not find rare antiques, but you can easily find some high-quality goods or ordinary goods. When the time comes, the goods will be available!
Next, Chu Chen originally wanted to drink tea with the two elders and chat for a while, but he was frequently interrupted by people who came to ask the price, which made him helpless and had no choice but to go downstairs to do town work again.

Seeing this, Mr. Liu laughed loudly and said, "It seems that Ah Chen is going to get rich again!"

The fact is also as Mr. Liu said, when the settlement is made at night, even if the income from those top-quality antiques brought by Chu Chen is excluded, and the jadeite jewelry is not counted, the net profit of the antique business alone exceeds 200 million for one day.If this news gets out, it will definitely make those shopkeepers envious and jealous.

When I got home at night, Zhang Guoju's family had already gone upstairs to sleep, and the others were sitting on the sofa, watching TV while waiting for Chu Chen to come back. This situation made Chu Chen feel very warm.

After saying hello to everyone, Chu Chen sat down on the sofa. After receiving so many people today, his body didn't feel tired, but his mind felt a bit overwhelmed.

Seeing Chu Chen's appearance, Zhao Yunlin hurriedly made a cup of tea for Chu Chen, and asked distressedly, "Ah Chen, how about it, why don't you go to bed earlier?"

"Mom, it's all right, but there are too many people today, and my head is a little dizzy, and there is no problem now." Chu Chen replied with a smile.

"Is it really okay?" Zhao Yunlin asked again worriedly.

"It's all right!" Chu Chen replied with a smile.

"Okay, Ah Chen is the son of the Lian family, he knows his body best, so don't worry about it." Chu Yongning said.

Hearing what Chu Yongning said, and seeing that Chu Chen's expression was indeed all right, Zhao Yunlin felt relieved.

"By the way, brother, what is the turnover of the store today?" Chu Yulan asked.

Chu Chen smiled and told everyone an unexpected number.

"So many?" Everyone sitting there was quite surprised when they heard Chu Chen say the number.

Chu Chen chuckled as acquiescing, the turnover of the store today has directly exceeded 3000 million, although most of them are contributed by those top-quality antiques and jade ornaments, but the popularity of the business still surprised him.And among the 3000 million, the cost is not even half. Most people would be jealous of this speed of absorbing money.

"Brother, your store is really worth a fortune!" Chu Yulan said with a beaming smile.

"Where!" Chu Chen waved his hand and said, "In our antique business, we usually don't open for three years, and open for three years. Once the freshness wears off, the business will not be so good!"

"Brother, don't you still sell jadeite jewelry in your store? My sister-in-law said that you have a master-level carver now, and you will definitely make a lot of money in the future!" Chu Yulan laughed.

"Then I will lend you a good word!" Chu Chen said with a chuckle.

Qiao Qian was slightly taken aback when she heard this, and she suddenly sighed in her heart that Chu Chen is too versatile. He knows martial arts, appraises antiques, bets on stones, and medicine. Now he can even carve, and he is still at the master level. What can he not do?

"Brother, why don't you carve an ornament for me?" Chu Yulan asked eagerly.

"I'll carve one for each of you when I have time later," Chu Chen replied.

Chu Yulan received an affirmative answer, and danced and said, "Brother, I love you to death!"

Chu Yongning and his wife looked at each other and smiled, while Qiao Qian was very jealous. If only she had such a brother or boyfriend.

"Qiao Qian, I'll also carve an ornament for you when the time comes. I wonder what style you like?" Chu Chen smiled slightly.

Josie was taken aback for a moment, then quickly waved her hands and said, "It's really too precious, forget it!"

Although she doesn't know much about jadeite, she often goes shopping and has a little understanding of the market. Jadeite ornaments carved by ordinary masters are often very expensive, and she also knows now that Chu Chen is more generous, and she will definitely not use ordinary materials by then. Carved, such a precious thing, she was really embarrassed to accept it.

Chu Chen said with a smile: "Qiao Qian, you also know that I can gamble with stones. For me, the raw materials can be regarded as easy to get. At most, I just spend some time on carving. It is not precious or not. It's my junior, it's normal to give gifts to juniors. Well, let's settle this matter, tell me what style do you like?"

Then, Chu Yulan also advised a few words.

Under the unfavorable hospitality, Qiao Qian could only agree with embarrassment.

Afterwards, everyone discussed for a while and decided on the styles they wanted, and Chu Chen recorded them all.

While Chu Chen was recording, Chu Yulan stood up and poured tea, and when she returned to her original position, she happened to see the brocade box that Chu Chen had put on the side just now, and asked curiously: "Brother, this brocade box seems to be Did your uncle give it to you?"

Chu Chen put away the pen and paper, nodded and said, "Yes, he gave it to me. He didn't tell me before that it was something he picked up, but I haven't opened it yet to see what it is."

Hearing what Chu Chen said, everyone showed curiosity on their faces, and Chu Yulan couldn't wait to say:
"Brother, let's quickly open the box and see what uncle has picked up!"

"Row!"

Chu Chen nodded with a smile, then opened the box, and found that there were two hand scrolls inside. Judging from the thickness of the hand scrolls, it should be quite a lot.

"It seems that there is no room for it on the coffee table, let's go to my studio and have a look!"

Everyone had no objection to Chu Chen's proposal, and then everyone came to Chu Chen's studio.

Opening the box, Chu Chen put on gloves and took out the two hand scrolls from the box and unfolded them. The true appearance of the two hand scrolls was displayed in front of everyone.

There are two hand scrolls, one is calligraphy, and the other is promotion. From the dense seals on the two works, it can be seen that the background of this work must be very great.

Sure enough, when Chu Chen saw the author's seal, he was taken aback immediately. He really didn't expect that this work was actually Liu Gongquan's regular script work, which was a copy of Wei Zheng's "Dizhu Ming" in the Tang Dynasty.

Liu Gongquan, styled Chengxuan, a calligrapher in the Tang Dynasty, one of the four well-known regular script masters.And because he was an official to Prince Shaoshi, he is known as "Liu Shaoshi" in the world.

Liu Gongquan's calligraphy is famous for its regular script, which is as famous as Yan Zhenqing, and is known as Yan Liu.He learned calligraphy from Wang Xizhi for the first time, and after looking at the calligraphy of famous masters in the Tang Dynasty, he thought that Yan Zhenqing and Ouyang Xun's calligraphy was the best, so he absorbed the strengths of Yan and Ou, and formed his own style between the Jin people's charm and Yan Shu's grace and majesty. Willow body is known for its strong and strong bones, and later generations have the reputation of "Yan Jin Liu Gu".

Liu Gongquan had a high reputation for calligraphy in the Tang Dynasty and Yuan Dynasty, and there may be no second person in the world.At that time, Liu Gongquan was not allowed to write the epitaph of the family of the ministers, and people regarded their descendants as unfilial.Moreover, Liu Gongquan's reputation spread far and wide overseas, and when foreigners paid tribute, they were not sent to the goods department, saying: "Here is the purchase of Liu Shu."

The important use of the emperor and the praise of the ministers can certainly change the mood for a while, but this is not the main reason for Liu Gongquan's reputation.The most important thing is the unique calligraphy beauty of Liu Ti, which has conquered the present and also won the descendants.

Su Shi once said: "Since Yan and Liu have disappeared, the brushwork has declined. In addition to the chaos at the end of the Tang Dynasty, the characters withered, and the literary style was wiped out. Only Yang Gongning style, the handwriting is outstanding, and there are two kings, Yan, and Liu. This is true. The hero of the book is not set by the times."

It can be seen that Liu Gongquan's calligraphy had a great influence on later generations.
