Chapter 35: Making a Big Fortune (Asking for Recommendations, Asking for Collections)
Hao Nan glanced at the back of the turtle grandson who slipped away, and couldn't help but sneer, I want to collect protection money from your brother Nan, why don't you go to heaven?
However, this also reminded Haonan that the jade box in his hand is too unsafe to keep by his side, and it is best to be able to sell it as soon as possible and withdraw the insurance points, so as not to have many dreams at night.
Haonan, who made a decision, carried the jade box on his body, closed the clinic in advance, and had no business today anyway.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Haonan came to the flower and bird antique market in Qingcheng.
This street has a history of more than 100 years, belongs to the commercial pedestrian street, mainly engaged in flowers, birds and antiques, is the largest distribution center of flowers and birds and antiques in Qingcheng, and the passenger flow can reach more than 10,000 people during holidays.
The flowers and birds here come in a variety of shapes and colors, and are loved by veteran players, who don't need too much money, but can have fun.
And there are also a lot of antique shops here, all of which are decorated in ancient style, classical and elegant, and most of them deal in miscellaneous, from ancient porcelain, furniture, clocks, calligraphy and painting, the four treasures of the study to gold, silver, copper, iron, wood and all kinds of handicrafts, which are very complete.
Because it was evening, there was a lot less foot traffic on the streets.
Haonan found a large-scale antique shop and walked in.
I saw that the house was full of antique decorations, and on the cabinet made of sandalwood, there were many simple old objects, which evoked thoughts and made people couldn't help but stop and watch.
There is no one in the store now, and there is an old man standing at the counter, he wears a pair of reading glasses, his hair and beard are half white, but his spirit is very strong, very much like the old shopkeeper of the antique shop in the TV series, revealing a deep energy. At this time, he was holding a porcelain vase in his hand, and he was concentrating on wiping it with a gentle cotton cloth.
Hao Nan walked to the counter and asked tentatively, "Old man, are you the shopkeeper of the store?"
The old gentleman raised his eyes, looked Haonan up and down, and said, "I'm not the boss, I can only be regarded as a guy in the store, do you have anything to do?"
"I have something I want to examine with you to see if it's valuable. Haonan said straight to the point.
"No problem, we can appraise objects here, but we have to charge a certain appraisal fee, which depends on the value of the item, but it will certainly not be ridiculously expensive. The old man put the porcelain vase in his hand back on the display case and said.
"Of course that's fine. Hao Nan carefully took out the gauze-wrapped jade box from his arms and put it on the counter for the old man to identify......
The old man first glanced at the jade box roughly, then turned on the fluorescent lamp on the counter, and then stepped forward and carefully fiddled and observed with a magnifying glass.
In just a moment, his pupils contracted sharply, then dilated again, and the expression that finally appeared on his face was extremely shocked, his eyes flashed with excitement, and his hands couldn't help but tremble.
Haonan looked at it and his heart jumped, this old man can't have Parkinson's, how could he be shaking like this.
After a long time, the old man slowly raised his head, and said excitedly and inarticulately: "Sir, your thing is a little valuable, I can't completely judge for a while, whether it can be handed over to our boss, he has a unique vision, and he can identify it at once." β
The implication of the old man's words was that he could not fully identify this jade box box.
"Well, okay. "Anyway, everyone is here, and it's not bad for a while, Haonan replied.
"Yes, sir, please follow me up to the second floor. β
The old man walked out of the counter, carefully holding the jade box with both hands, and took the lead to the second floor, followed by Haonan.
After a clatter of wooden stamps, the two of them reached the second floor.
The old man buckled a door facing the stairs and said, "Boss, a gentleman has sent a treasure to appraisal, I am clumsy, and I hope you will come to appraise." β
"Please come in. A magnetic voice came from inside.
With a creak, Hao Nan followed the old man into the door.
This is an office of about forty or fifty square meters, and there are bamboo, cactus balls and other plants in the corner, which decorate the room with a touch of color.
Behind the desk, a man about thirty years old with an elegant face and a pair of gold-framed eyes was playing with a jade piece in his hand, and when he saw the old man and Haonan walking in, he put away the jade piece, got up and politely said hello to Haonan.
"You may be seated. The elegant man greeted Hao Nan, sat down on the sofa, and quickly made a cup of tea and put it on the coffee table in front of Hao Nan.
"Please have tea. β
"Thank you. β
"Boss Jin, this is what this gentleman sent for identification, please take a look. The old man handed the jade box to Boss Jin.
And this boss Jin also put down the frame of his glasses, looked at the object in front of him intently, and like the old man, he also put it under the light, and after observing it with a magnifying glass, there was a look of shock in his eyes, it seemed that he already had the answer in his heart.
To be honest, Hao Nan was also quite apprehensive in his heart, because this was a box of pills filled by Huang Yaoshi, and Hao Nan didn't know how much this thing had in his heart.
After Boss Jin finished the appraisal, he came over and sat on the same sofa with Haonan, and asked him, "What else is your surname?"
"Don't let your surname be Haonan. β
"Hello Mr. Hao, my name is Jin Yang, you can also call me Lao Jin, how did you get this jade box box?"
After Jin Yang briefly introduced himself, he threw out a question, which was to trap Haonan's words.
"This thing was passed down from my grandfather's generation. Hao Nan casually said nonsense, to tell him the truth, this is what Huang Yaoshi gave to himself, don't scare him half to death??
"Oh. Jin Yang nodded, and then told SΓΉ Haonan the results of his identification: "Your box itself is just made of ordinary peach wood, which may have been used to hold women's cosmetics in ancient times, but the focus is on the jade ornaments outside." At first, I didn't dare to believe it, but after careful observation, I confirmed that this is the best mutton fat white jade! This mutton fat white jade is crystal white, delicate and moisturizing, almost flawless, warm, and there is no yellowish color under the fluorescent lamp, which is enough to show its purity, most of the jade needs to be raised, but this kind of jade can raise people, can invigorate qi and blood, dredge the viscera......"
Jin Yang's words were rising, but Haonan couldn't help but interject: "Well, it sounds very good, but how much is it worth?"
Listening to these professional terms, Haonan felt that his head was getting bigger, these were not too concerned about him, the key to the problem was how much money to feed, this is the key......
Jin Yang smiled and said: "In this way, let me give you an example, such a superb mutton fat white jade, the price of 30 grams is more than 5 million, and I will not see less than 50 grams of your jade." β
The old man stood aside, and he thought it was true when he heard it, otherwise he wouldn't have handed it over to Jin Yang for identification, because what the boss said was always more convincing than the employee.
Under Jin Yang's calm smile, he said a number that made Haonan not calm.
The sky is grunt, 30 grams is 5 million! This account is actually calculated like this, this is more expensive than the price of gold! Haonan forcibly concealed his composure, but his heart was like a monstrous wave.
30 grams is 5 million, not less than 50 grams, which means that there are at least 8.3 million.
Is this to say that it is not shocking to die?
If a doctor is asked to measure Haonan's blood pressure, it must have soared to 180!
"Ahem, so that's the case..."Hao Nan muttered in a low voice, Hao Nan tried his best to stay calm, after all, we are also people who have seen the world.
"I don't know what you're going to do with this piece of jade, Mr. Hao. Jin Yang looked at Haonan's expression and asked tentatively with a smile.
"Of course, it's a sale. "Haonan is a matter of course, is it still in his arms every day, if he goes out with 8 million every day, even if he eats, he will not be stable.
"Mr. Hao, we don't hide it when we do business, let's tell you the truth, this jade is put at auction, if you remove the auction fee, you can only get 8.6 million at most, and now I will collect 9 million?" Jin Yang pursed his lips, as if he had made some important decision, and said to Hao Nan.
In fact, as a shrewd businessman, if you want to accept this piece of jade, then naturally you must do it at the lowest price. But Jin Yang has been in the antique business for nearly ten years, but he has never seen such a superb and pure mutton fat white jade, and he has always wanted to have a piece of pure jade for many years, not for business, but for himself. So today, after seeing Haonan's jade box again, my heart was very excited, and I even took the initiative to raise the price, hoping to buy this jade from Haonan.
"9 million?" Hao Nan rubbed his chin and thought to himself.
Originally, Haonan was also going to take it to the auction for auction, but after thinking about it, he would have to take a fee for nothing, and if he really wanted to auction it, he would have to ask about the source of this thing, which would be more troublesome, since this jade was Jin Yang's favorite, and he made such a big concession on the price, it was better to sell it to him.
"Okay, deal. Hao Nan's heart was crossed, and he said after making a decision.
After reaching a consensus, Jin Yang and Haonan went to a nearby XT bank together and completed the transfer business in several times.
With one hand to pay and one hand to deliver, when Haonan came out of XT Bank, there was already an extra VIP supreme card in his pocket, and the balance in it was 9 million!!
