Yu Yao paused for a moment and did not answer his question directly, "In the autumn auction last year, there was a "Hibiscus Heron Bird Picture" of about the same size as this, which was a work in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, which was also anonymous, and finally sold for 180,000 yuan. ”

"That's not going to work, it's too little!" cried the middle-aged man.

"Well, forget it. I'm talking about the hammer price at the auction, and I can only pay up to 50,000 yuan. Yu Yao responded.

The middle-aged man glanced at Yu Yao, turned around and left, and didn't even say goodbye.

"This painting is worth more than the "Hibiscus Heron Bird Picture" you said, in fact, it can be added by tens of thousands. Shangguan Yu opened his mouth.

"180,000 is too little. Yu Yao shook his head, "I'm afraid that he still thinks it's Xia Gui's Song painting, and thinks I'm cheating him." ”

Shangguan Yu said, "I cherish the broom, maybe he is also shaken now, but he has treasured it for a long time, and he is reluctant to pay less price." ”

"It's a good collection. There are also people who take a bunch of hot new goods as good things, and talk about this kind of business before they are troublesome. ”

"It's not easy to do an antique business. ”

"It's not easy to do anything. ”

"But with your eyesight, there's no need to open a store at all. ”

"If it weren't for my father's half-life creation of this shop, I wouldn't have kept it. Now it can't be put down, because it's still called Gegu Zhai! This place will gradually become a place for people in the circle to drink tea and chat in the future, and the real big business will not come out of here. ”

"Yes!" Shangguan Yu seemed to be a little emotional.

Yu Yao shook his hand, "Don't talk about this." Let's go, let's drink!"

The two drank a lot at night, and when Yu Yao woke up the next day, he felt a little uncomfortable in his head, and he took a shower after getting up to feel better.

was blowing his hair, the phone rang, and it turned out to be Chen Liangdian calling.

"Mr. Sun, the owner of the album, has terminated the contract, you let Shangguan Yu contact you!" Chen Liangdian clicked directly.

"Hmm, Mr. Chen, you ······?"

"Alright, no more talking. Didn't he say, 'I'll help you, you help me?' Don't you think I really don't understand!"

"Don't get me wrong, we don't mean to interfere, even if it's on the auction, it doesn't matter. ”

"I know this, and what he says is true, this album is the stuff of the Republic of China, so I opened it up. Since the owner of the goods does not agree to add 'Republic of China', we can't shoot it. Since you can't shoot anymore, why don't you give priority to your friends?"

"Thank you, Mr. Chen. Yu Yao simply didn't say much.

"You help me, I'll help you. Chen Liangdian hung up the phone with a smile.

Two hours later, the Sword Pavilion Jade Carving Studio.

"You guys are well-informed!" Sun Jian poured a cup of tea for Yu Yao and Shangguan Yu, "Try this little orchid." ”

"Mr. Sun's studio is not small, and this guest room is also very tasteful. Yu Yao didn't answer his question. There is no need to answer, the well-informed ones have come to the door to talk.

"Now business is not good, raw materials are expensive, Russian materials can't be bought, and the market is messed up by a bunch of fake skin seeds. ”

When Yu Yao heard this, this Sun Jian seemed to have a little principle, "I don't know how to collect the wages of Mr. Sun's personal workers?"

"It's not as good as those studios in Suzhou! The sword characters are all made by me, and the labor fee is one gram and two hundred; the pavilion characters are repaired by other masters, and the labor fee is one gram and one hundred. It's better to make more money by selling materials. Sun Jian looked at Yu Yao, "What does Boss Yu want to do?"

"I don't know how Mr. Sun engraves?" asked Yu Yao.

"You're asking! What I'm best at is lettering!" Sun Jian said, taking out a picture album and opening it, "You see, these are all engraved on the back, and I can come up with a few knives." ”

"I once wanted to order a batch of jade plaques and engrave my store number as a small gift for a big customer. Yu Yao is not talking nonsense, he did have this idea, but because he was busy with things outside the store, he never implemented it. This suddenly entered the jade carving studio, and he mentioned it in passing.

"Yes, but to ensure uniformity, I am afraid that it is unrealistic to use seeds. ”

"Well, I didn't think about this yet, but when I got to you, I suddenly remembered. Yu Yao waved his hand, "Let's talk about the album first." ”

Sun Jian laughed twice and didn't speak.

"Don't get me wrong, how the album should be talked about, the two things are separate. And it's not like I'm talking about it. Yu Yao said, and got up, "You talk, Mr. Sun, you find someone to show me your works." ”

Sun Jian immediately found a little beauty and took Yu Yao to the exhibit room, while he stayed with Shangguan Yu to talk about the sale of albums.

Yu Yao followed the little beauty to the exhibit room, and asked casually while looking, "Are you Chief Secretary Sun?"

"No, Mr. Sun doesn't have a secretary, I'm mainly responsible for online platform sales and live broadcasts. "The little beauty's voice is very sweet.

"To do a live broadcast, you have to find a beautiful woman who is more attractive. ”

"I do jade live broadcasts, I don't show my face, I only show things, and then I talk. During the live broadcast, there will be a limited-time auction and a flash sale. ”

"I see!" Yu Yao really hasn't bought anything from the live broadcast platform.

This little beauty can indeed speak, and is also knowledgeable, introducing jade and jade materials, one by one, but mixed with a lot of fashionable and lethal words for novices, such as steel sheets, first-class white, and the like.

A real veteran will not use these words, such as what first-grade white, second-grade white, and what grade is the whiteness of Hetian jade? Because the whiteness is different, cold white, warm white, fat white······ And so on, even if the same white tone, there will be different visual perceptions due to the materiality and density.

For merchants, this is also no way, because the largest proportion of customers are still novices and half a bottle of vinegar, veterans are too picky, and there are many receiving channels, so it is difficult to make more money.

However, Sun Jian's work is still okay. Now the most popular in the market is Su Gong and Shanghai School, Yangzhou Gong is mostly large, and Beigong is generally not valued except for some masters. Sun Jian's work is the foundation of Su Gong, delicate, and at the same time, some good ideas can also be seen.

Previously, Shen Ge said that he could draw inspiration from the album, which also shows that he has artistic pursuits.

And Sun Jian's lettering does have skills, the pen is sharp, especially the Yin carving, the lines are very neat.

Yu Yao couldn't help but pick up a jade plaque to admire. Although this jade plaque is a green and white seed material, the material is excellent; the front relief Tang Dynasty poet Wang Changling, standing far away, there is a full moon, the front is closed, a big stone next to the body is embossed Lishu Yangwen: Seven Absolute Holy Hands; the back is full of plain skin, the book is engraved with Wang Changling's popular seven uniques:

In the Qin period, the bright moon and the Han period, the Long March has not been returned. But to make the dragon city fly will not teach Humadu Yin Mountain.

"This brand, Mr. Sun doesn't sell it. At this time, the little beauty opened her mouth on the side.
