Chapter 91: It's Not That Simple
Returning to the Flower and Bird Exhibition again, He Tan was already waiting under a tree.
"Brother, where is Mao Porcelain?"
Yang Fan took out the small porcelain jar and said helplessly: "Don't you have anything to do today?"
"What's the matter, I'm not going anywhere today, I'll stay with you. ”
Yang Fan had goosebumps when he heard this, if a beautiful woman said such things to you, it might be a kind of enjoyment, very pleasant. But a man will say to you in person, as long as he is a normal man, he will inevitably feel uncomfortable.
"Ahem!" Yang Fan coughed lightly.
In addition, He Tan has already notified the appraisers of his auction house and asked them to come here to take a look, maybe there will be an unexpected gain, just like Yang Fan.
"This flower and bird exhibition is really lively. It was the first time for He Tan to participate in such an event.
I've heard about it before, but I don't think it's much to see, it's too low-end, and I haven't seen it. This time, it was Yang Fan who picked up the treasure and found that there would also be boutiques in this kind of place.
"After all, it has been held for so long, and it must have a bit of a foundation. Yang Fan was not too surprised.
In fact, treasures are everywhere, it depends on whether you have the ability to dig them out. Perhaps, an ordinary object you see day and night is an antique, but 99.0% of people regard it as transparent.
At this time, they found that the front aroused onlookers, and out of curiosity, the two also approached.
When I got closer, I realized that it was a painting that caught everyone's attention.
Yang Fan listened for a while before figuring out the ins and outs of the matter. It turned out that two antiques had discovered the painting at the same time and were competing with each other.
The boss was also a human spirit, and immediately realized that the painting was a treasure. It's not hard to guess that every year there are a few antiques, some of which are in the millions.
So, he didn't rush to sell the painting, let the two of them fight, and in the end, even proposed a high price of 500,000 yuan. The price was tens of thousands of yuan higher than the highest price offered by the two antique people, which was obviously a bit beyond the normal market price.
The two shook their heads and left, picking up treasure is a pleasure, and when it will ruin itself, you have to give up.
The boss is not in a hurry, anyway, it is a treasure, and he doesn't have to worry about not being able to sell it, and he hangs it up, clearly marking the price of 200,000 yuan, and the other things are put aside, and the frame of the painting is specially auctioned.
Yang Fan looked at it carefully and found that it was a picture of a begonia sleeping in spring. However, this is not Tang Bohu's painting, but an imitation of a famous painter during the Republic of China.
"Gao Jianfu's work!"
"Who is Father Gao Jian?" someone also asked.
"A modern painter in Guangzhou, Lingnan is very famous, and together with Chen Shuren and Gao Qifeng, he is committed to the reform of Chinese painting, and later known as the Lingnan School. "There were also people at the scene who had ink in their stomachs.
Gao Jianfu's paintings have participated in many international exhibitions, attracting the attention of European and American art circles, and have won the gold medal of the Italian International Exposition, the best award of the Panama and Belgium International Exposition, and some of his works have been collected by museums in some countries.
"500,000 is too high?" He Tan asked.
He was a little moved, and wanted to discuss with the boss that he would get the auction house for auction, and both parties would be beneficial, and the win-win situation would be very happy, and he should not refuse.
"The painting on it should be Gao Jianfu's early works, and 500,000 is high. Yang Fan said after a while.
However, there were some places in the painting that caught his attention, so he used the clear eye charm to look at it, and was shocked. He hurriedly stepped forward to observe carefully.
"Be careful, don't touch it, what if it breaks?" the boss frowned.
"I'll pay for it. Yang Fan said.
With this sentence, the boss is relieved, you can tear it up, it's okay if you have money.
After confirming, Yang Fan relaxed, turned his head and said to the boss: "I'll tell you the truth! This painting of yours is Gao Jianfu's early work, even if it is sold at the auction house, it will definitely not sell for 500,000 yuan." 450,000 should be the highest, do you want to sell it?"
450,000, which is 20,000 higher than the previous two peers.
The boss listened and hesitated. To be honest, 450,000 yuan is far beyond his expectations, a windfall from the sky. He couldn't even auction for 500,000 yuan, which made him have to be cautious.
Just when he hesitated, a few more people crowded in outside, it was Qi Lao and them.
When Qi Lao and the others saw Yang Fan, they were stunned for a moment, then said hello, and then took a closer look.
"Four hundred and fifty thousand is also a little expensive. They shook their heads.
The boss thought that with a few more competitors, he should be able to raise the price a little, but who knows, when they heard about 450,000 yuan, they gave up decisively.
"If it's Gao Jianfu's famous work, it doesn't matter if it's expensive, but this early work is still forgotten. Chen Lao also said that he was not very interested.
They were a little strange in their hearts, as far as they knew, that kid was not the master of a loss-making business! After buying it for 450,000 yuan, what else would he make to make money? Could it be that the kid really liked this painting? If so, it would not be surprising.
"Xiao Fan! If you like Gao Jianfu's paintings, I will introduce you to one, which is guaranteed to be better than this one, and the price will only be 350,000 yuan more expensive. Another old man spoke.
An old friend of his has collected several paintings of Gao Jianfu, two of which are famous.
That friend is also a native of Guangdong, and he has an obsessive collection of Lingnan antiques**. He himself is a rich man, there are too many rich people in Guangdong, and his collection is no worse than that of Huang Shiquan.
The last time I went to him, I took out several treasures from the South Vietnamese period, which is very rare.
The Nanyue Kingdom is a very famous foreign vassal state in ancient China, although it is only less than a hundred years old, but after it was destroyed by the Han Dynasty, it has been known for various magical myths and legends.
When the boss heard this, he dared to keep it. It seems that the painting is a bit high at 450,000 yuan.
Now that someone has come up to this price and still doesn't sell it, does he keep it for himself? He doesn't have this plan yet.
"This boss, 450,000 yuan is given to you. He hurriedly rolled up the painting and stuffed it into Yang Fan's hand.
After the transaction, this matter quickly spread throughout the flower and bird exhibition, causing a small sensation, following the previous year, a "hundred flowers blooming" sold for millions of sky-high prices, this year's antiques appeared again.
However, they don't know that many antiques people have already picked up the bargain.
It's just that the people who pick up the leaks usually don't bluff, and they are all the ones who make a fortune in a muffled voice, at most they are circulating in the antique circle.
"Since it's high, there's no need to buy it, right?" He Tan was a little puzzled.
Yang Fan smiled: "This painting is not so simple. ”
"Why isn't it easy?" He Tan's eyes lit up.
"I'll tell you later. ”
