Chapter 028: Living Signboard
Mrs. Luo's situation this time is even more serious than last time.
The husband's uremia has deteriorated to the last point, hemodialysis can no longer support the old man's life, the only way to save his life is to replace the kidney, although the kidney replacement can save the old man's life, but it has to pay a very expensive price, a high cost of more than hundreds of thousands of high surgery.
"Okay, good, Master Cao, please!" Mrs. Luo's haggard cheeks flashed with a glimmer of light: "To be honest, I will never take out these things for money if I have no last resort, these things were collected by the old man when he was young, and the old man regards them as more important than his own life!"
Mrs. Luo took out a pair of brass candlesticks from the black bag in turn, as well as a set of Baishou wine glasses, a total of four wine glasses, and the word "Shou" was densely distributed on the body of the cups, so this kind of cup was called "Baishou Cup".
Finally, the old woman took out a tiny incense burner from her bag, which was surprisingly small, the mouth of the stove was only the size of a coin, and the palm of a child's hand was more than enough in the palm of his hand.
The three items, one large and two small, were placed in front of Cao Donglai in turn.
"Old woman, how did you get all this stuff?" said Kang Kai, who stepped forward on his own initiative.
Mrs. Luo did not hide it: "These things were collected by the old man when he was young, and they were basically taken back from the antique stall by him at his expense, and they have been placed at home for decades!
Cao Donglai sighed, first looked at the incense burner: "This pair of incense burners is made of brass, the workmanship of the things is okay, the overall quality is not bad, it should be a product of the Republic of China period, although the things are old things, but they can't be regarded as antiques! There are not a few similar antiques on the market, so they can't be sold at a high price!"
Mrs. Luo's face was a little panicked: "Master Cao, please! Try to help me, the old man and I have no children and no daughters in our lives, and now we can only rely on these antiques to save our lives! Please!"
Cao Donglai raised a finger: "For this pair of candlesticks, our store can only give you a price of 10,000 at most!"
"Ah, 10,000 yuan?" Mrs. Luo frowned, this price was obviously much lower than she expected: "So little?"
Kang Kai poured a cup of tea for the old woman: "Old woman! The candlestick of the Qing Dynasty is basically seven or eight thousand, and you will not go to other stores to exceed the price of eight thousand! Xuan Bao Zhai is a century-old store and will not pit you!"
The old woman sighed, pointed to the remaining two antiques, and said, "Then please ask Master Cao to help me take a look at this set of Baishou cups and incense burners!"
Cao Donglai lifted the set of Baishou cups and exposed the payment under the Baishou cup: "This set of Baishou cups is also genuine, it is a cup of the Jiaqing era, one of the cups is missing a corner, so the overall color is slightly worse, if it is a whole set of good Baishou cups, the price can be sold for 20,000 one, and one set is 80,000!"
"It's a pity that a cup is broken, and the price can only be greatly discounted, and this set can only be sold for 40,000 yuan at present!"
Forty thousand!
Shen Qiu sat on the chair opposite the counter, everything that happened on the counter was in his eyes, he almost stood up for the candlestick just now, the workmanship of the candlestick was a fine product at first glance, and the style was not the Republic of China period, but the work of the late Qing Dynasty, and that set of candlesticks would never be lower than 50,000 yuan in the boutique!
Cao Donglai is good, and he sent 10,000 yuan directly!
Besides, this Baishou cup, although it is not a boutique of the official kiln, but it is also a good thing of the Cizhou kiln, you must know that the Cizhou kiln was one of the four major kilns of the Qing Dynasty at that time, although the reputation is not as good as the official kiln, the quality of the glaze is not much worse than the official kiln.
The market price of this kind of Baishou Cup is very transparent, if you sell it alone, it is 50,000 yuan! If a set of finished products is sold, it will definitely not be lower than 300,000 yuan!
In the case of Mrs. Luo, the conservative valuation should not be less than 160,000, and Cao Donglai offered a price of 40,000?
Just in order to get a high proportion of the share, more than 100,000 old women were killed?
Shen Qiu wanted to speak and stopped, he is not the kind of person who likes to tear down the stage, the reason why the last time the copybook was missed was largely due to Mrs. Luo, so this time I especially wanted to pull Mrs. Luo.
If Cao Dong comes to quote the normal price, forget it, his mother swallowed most of Mrs. Luo's money, this is the money that people take back to save their lives!
And these things are different from the Qianlong seal calligraphy last time, that pair of calligraphy is taken out and few people recognize it, on the contrary, the price of candlesticks and Baishou cups is extremely transparent, the old woman only needs to find someone who knows how to ask clearly, Cao Donglai is really not kind to play like this!
"Old lady, let's take a look at your last incense burner, this incense burner is a little older, it is a three-legged and two-eared incense burner in the Ming Dynasty, because its shape is tiny and can only be inserted into an incense burner, so it is also called an incense burner. ”
"This incense burner is an old object of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty, old lady, have you seen the payment? The payment is Chenghua Xuan furnace, pay attention to it! It is a Xuan furnace instead of Xuande furnace, the difference between the two is a word, but the price is 108,000 miles, Xuande furnace is the official kiln of the Ming Dynasty, if it is a Xuande furnace, you must be worth at least five million, on the contrary, Xuan furnace is a little-known kiln mouth, at most only 100,000 yuan!"
Mrs. Luo couldn't help but repeat, the sum of the three things is less than 200,000, and the money is not enough to save the old man's life!
"Master Cao, can you be accommodating, I'm really waiting for this money to save my life!"
Cao Donglai shook his head slightly: "Old lady, I give you the highest price on the market at present, if you don't believe it, you can ask other antique shops, the price of your three things is 150,000, I can ask the boss to give you 10,000 yuan, that is, 160,000! This is the best price I can give you!"
No way!
Shen Qiu was only four or five meters away from the counter, and when he heard this price, he couldn't help but scold, Xuan Furnace is a little-known stove?
This is the funniest joke Shen Qiu has ever heard, Xuande furnace and Xuanlu are not the same era at all, one is the Xuande era of the Ming Dynasty, and the other is the Chenghua of the Ming Dynasty! Although the Xuanyao kiln is not one of the top ten kilns, it can be regarded as a well-known kiln mouth back then.
100,000 yuan? Cao Donglai also said that the price of an incense stick of this quality will not be less than 250,000 yuan, and a good incense stick can even exceed 300,000 yuan!
It's so dark!
Antiques worth a total of 500,000 yuan were stunned to press the old lady to 150,000 yuan?
He Cao Donglai is still the successor of Wang Qianshi, the living signboard of Xuan Bao Zhai?
Shen Qiu got up angrily, the old lady had the grace of knowing him, and was waiting for money to save his life, if he could, he would rather spend his own money to buy these three antiques from the store, as long as he didn't enter Xuan Bao Zhai's warehouse, these could be operated.
"Master Cao!"
Shen Qiu politely went up, ready to find Cao Dong to communicate, after all, he would not lose anything by doing so, that is, he just went through one more process.
"Shen Qiu!"
Without waiting for Shen Qiu to speak, Kang Kai blocked him in a weird way and whispered, "What do you mean? Do you want me to say more about the rules of the antique world? Don't open your mouth if you shouldn't speak! Go back to your own place!"
"Kang Kai! You're afraid that you'll lose your commission, right? Get out of the way! I'll communicate with Master Cao about this matter! I won't lose your commission!"
"Shen Qiu? I don't know what you're thinking, do you? Do you really think you're the number one in Xuan Bao Zhai? Do you really think you can point fingers? I warn you cautiously, you don't need to meddle in my master's affairs! Get out of here as far as you want! Rubbish!"
To be honest, if Cao Donglai insisted on doing this business, Shen Qiu would have nothing to say, but this Kang Kai's mouth was too stinky, and the nameless fire in Shen Qiu's heart was ignited in an instant.
"I, Shen Qiu, will take care of this matter!"
"Shen Qiu!" Seeing that the matter was about to be revealed, Cao Donglai turned around and glared at Shen Qiu angrily, his voice was full of anger: "It seems that you really don't have me Cao Donglai in your eyes! If you dare to ruin this deal today, I, Cao Donglai, will not be finished with you!"
