Chapter 575 Wood carving
The road is narrow!
When Wang Wei came over, he happened to meet Zhou Yingping and Zhang Yaohui, and the two of them also came to see this Shou Tao.
This longevity peach can be described as ingenious, left a piece of three-color jadeite carving, red, pink and green, looks like a real ripe peach, people want to go up and take a bite, but it is a jade carving, it can not help but make people amazing!
"Your goal is this peach?" Seeing the two people walking over, Wang Wei showed a sneer.
Hum!
Zhou Yingping snorted coldly and turned around and left, when he faced Wang Wei, his face was still expressionless, but when he turned around, his face was completely dark, looking at his gloomy face, I am afraid that if he is given a knife now, he will be able to use it to stab Wang Wei.
"Young master, what should I do?" When he was a little farther away from Wang Wei, Zhang Yaohui asked with a worried face.
"If you see the opportunity, if you can't do it, you have more money than anyone, I don't believe that he can beat me!" Zhou Yingping said through gritted teeth.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, a middle-aged man walked in.
"Everyone, it's not too early, I think you have also decided, then start the auction now, the highest price will be won, the dealer will either settle the payment immediately, or pay a deposit, settle the payment within three days, and deliver the goods on the spot after settling the payment, starting from booth No. 1, a Song Dynasty Taishi chair, with a starting price of 500,000 yuan...... "The middle-aged man is Xiao Chengping.
He is not a professional auctioneer, so he omits a lot of intermediate links and directly starts auctioning antiques in the hall.
Because everyone had seen it clearly just now, and he numbered each antique, he stood directly in front of the antique.
"700,000!" This Taishi chair is well preserved, and it is a rare fine product from the hands of famous artists, so many people participate in the competition.
However, Wang Wei was not interested, because only one chair was not a complete set, and if it was a complete set of furniture, he would be somewhat interested.
The courtyard is almost finished and needs some classic furniture to add to it.
Soon, it was sold at a price of 1.5 million.
It wasn't until the seventh piece that Wang Wei became interested, which was a golden silk nan ebony statue.
It's not a statue of a Buddha, it's not a statue of a celebrity, but a big man with knotted muscles, holding a machete and slashing in the air.
There was no payment, but the carving was exquisite, and it was obviously a famous artist at that time.
"This is a wood carving of the Song Dynasty, the carving is exquisite, and it is a whole piece of golden silk nan ebony, which is very collectible, and the starting price is 300,000 ......" When he came to this target, Xiao Chengping did not expect to be able to sell at a high price, because the value of antiques is not only reflected in the material.
Just like the same jade pendant, from the hand of Lu Zigang, and from the hand of other carvers, the price difference can reach thousands of times.
So although this piece of wood carving is nearly a foot high, and it is a whole piece of golden silk nan ebony, but there is no payment, can not prove the provenance, the value is greatly discounted, if it is not the whole piece of golden silk nan ebony, it is impossible to put it out, even so his expectations are very low.
"Although it's good material, it's a pity that I don't have any knowledge, I'll add 10,000!" someone shook his head and added a little bit casually.
Belch!
Xiao Chengping's face was a little ugly, although he didn't expect how much money this label would sell, but this is really a little less without adding?
Then no one spoke up, and you see that no one raised the price again.
"Three hundred and fifty thousand!" Just when Xiao Chengping was about to announce the deal, someone suddenly raised the price, and it was Wang Wei who stood up and shouted the price.
"Okay, 350,000, is there anyone who has no one to offer a higher price?" finally gave a little effort, and Xiao Chengping's face also relaxed.
In fact, when he carved this wood out at that time, he was still a little hesitant.
Selling materials directly, this statue carved from ebony of Jin Sinan, the total price of the materials that can be taken out will never exceed 200,000.
What a pity!
That's why I took it out and put it in the living room, hoping to take advantage of the opportunity to sell other antiques to sell this wood carving of unknown origin.
As long as it exceeds 200,000, it is earned!
"Three hundred and sixty thousand!" At this moment, another person made a bid.
It's Zhou Yingping!
When he and Wang Wei met for the first time, they were thrown out directly by Wang Wei, and when they met for the second time, they were knocked down by Wang Wei vigorously.
So he has a lot of resentment towards Wang Wei, and now that he sees that Wang Wei wants to buy something, of course he has to intervene.
He was targeting Wang Wei as a person, not a wood carving, and even if Wang Wei wanted to buy a worthless blank piece of paper, he would stop it.
"500,000!" Wang Wei did not show weakness.
"600,000!" Zhou Yingping also took the lead.
The two of them faced each other, and the price rose alternately, and soon broke through the million mark, leaving the people around them stunned.
The golden silk ebony is very precious, but this statue is only a foot high, only a little bigger than a mineral water bottle, and it is not worth so much.
Million!
Just when everyone was shocked, the two had already raised the price to the point of five million.
At this time, the people around also understood that it was not how valuable this golden silk nan ebony statue was, but that the two young people were fighting.
When the two of them compare prices, they don't look at the auction items at all, but like two fighting cocks, they only look at each other's eyes.
Xiao Chengping is broken!
Now the price of these wood carvings has far exceeded his expectations by dozens of times, even if you make a deal at the current price, you will make a lot of money.
Because of the price of this wood carving, he knew that it was collected by his father ten years ago, and he bought it for only 80 yuan at that time.
Ten million!
Everyone doesn't know what to say anymore, they can only say two losers!
Million!
There is only one word in everyone's hearts now, if a loser is so rich, I also want to be a loser!
Million!
This price was shouted by Wang Wei, and when Wang Wei shouted out this price, Zhou Yingping smiled at that time and stopped bidding.
"Wronged, the goal belongs to you, even a wood carving that is not worth 500,000, you actually paid 50 million, is your brain in water?"
"How do you know it's not worth half a million?"
"First of all, although the carving is exquisite, there is no knowledge, the origin is unknown, and secondly, although it is carved from golden silk nan ebony, the size is too small. ”
"Then do you dare to make a bet?" Wang Wei suddenly laughed.
"What bet?"
"Just use the price of this wood carving as a bet, I lose, give you 50 million, you lose, just pay for me and buy the wood carving, what do you think?"
"Okay, since you want to pay twice the price, I agreed, so how do you prove that it's worth 500,000?" Zhou Yingping said triumphantly.
Although he runs the jewelry industry, he also has a certain understanding of the price of wood, and the piece of golden silk ebony in front of him is worth 200,000 at most, so he won with 500,000 as the boundary, of course, if he uses 50 million as the boundary, then he is more sure of winning.
But he is not a fool, 500,000 Wang Wei will bet with him, 50 million, Wang Wei will definitely ignore him.
"Boss Xiao, I don't know if I can take out this wood carving?" Wang Wei said to Xiao Chengping.
"Okay, I'll make an exception, but the two of you have already promised, whoever loses, will give me 50 million, everyone testify!" Xiao Chengping said as he opened the glass display case with the key, took out the wood carving and handed it to Wang Wei, he also wanted to see how Wang Wei proved it.
In his opinion, Wang Wei is doomed, because the quality of the golden silk nan ebony carved by this piece of wood is not high, and it is worth 200,000 yuan if it dies.
Even if it is carved into a finished product, without any knowledge that cannot judge the origin, it can add another 50,000 or 250,000 at most.
Syllable!
Just when everyone was looking forward to it, they saw Wang Wei pinching it hard, and directly crushed the wood carving.
Is this annoyance?
But even if you are angry and destroy the wood carving, you will still lose and lose money.
Hey?
At this time, everyone was able to live again, because the wood carving that was pinched into two by Wang Wei turned out to be an empty shell inside, Wang Wei reached out and took out a stack of gold pieces from the empty shell, each lens was half a foot high, an inch and a half wide, and half a centimeter thick, there were as many as six pieces.
How can there be gold pieces?
"Are you throwing in the towel now?" Wang Wei threw up the six pieces of gold in his hand, took them in his hand again, and clanged under the impact of each other.
"It must be fake!"
"You can see for yourself whether it is fake or not, but I warn you, these gold pieces have words on them, they are very precious, don't destroy them when you inspect them!" Wang Wei handed over the six gold plates.
Zhou Yingping subconsciously took it, and after receiving it in his hand, he didn't even check it carefully, and he had already determined that these were real gold.
Although limited to ancient smelting techniques, the purity of these golds is not as high as that of modern gold, but it is not far behind.
It may be very important information to have words on these gold chips, and it will double the value of these chips.
He weighed it when he held it in his hand, and the six large pieces of gold added up would definitely weigh more than half a catty.
Even if you don't care about the price of cultural relics, just an ordinary gold transaction, more than half a catty of gold, the price must be above one million.
And two people bet half a million!
Thinking of this, his face was ugly, he lost, and he had to pay for Wang Wei.
He has 50 million, and he can take it, and it is not a nerve-wracking, the key is that he lost in front of everyone's eyes, and he was also disgraced!
He didn't want to give it, but when he saw the people around him, he immediately dispelled the idea.
Most of the people around him who watched the excitement were people with heads and faces in Donghai City, and if he played tricks, he would become famous in the entire Donghai.
Doing business pays attention to a letter word, he came to Donghai City to do business, he was originally an outsider, and if he lost his reputation, could he still make money?
"The surname Zhou, you have a word, do you admit that you lost? Will you pay for me?" At this time, Wang Wei snatched back the six pieces of gold, and then picked up the wood carving fragments that fell on the ground, and buckled them together with a click, and it turned out to form a complete wood carving.
It turned out that the target was actually pieced together, consisting of three parts of different sizes, but everyone didn't notice it and mistakenly thought it was crushed.
