Chapter 28 Antiques Market
Volume 1 Temporaries of the Underworld
Chapter XXVIII
Fan Jinyan had no choice but to return Kevin to her, until Yang Qian took Xiao Nene and hammered him a few times and left, Fan Jinyan lay on the bed and sighed: "I'm really not a thief." β
Ji Lingyun also lay on top of him and whispered in his ear: "You can only be a thief who steals your heart." β
At night, after Fan Jinyan and Ji Lingyun poured the stolen small Nene together and burned them, they suddenly felt goosebumps fall to the ground when they saw Yang Qi picking them all up and holding them in his arms.
I didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so I invited the ghost to take him and the schoolgirl who was already wearing a floral dress to the underworld. Fan Jinyan breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the hotel with Ji Lingyun.
The next morning, the two took a taxi to the antique market in the south of the city, and Fan Jinyan was going to sell a few bronze cups. Because he didn't understand the market, he could only wander around the market until noon when he saw an antique shop with a three-room faΓ§ade, so he pushed the door and entered the store.
"Mr. and Madam, please look at it casually, my house is a century-old brand, and it is absolutely authentic. Like what? I'll introduce you to the two of you......" The boss saw that there was a guest coming to the door, and hurriedly put down the newspaper and said.
It's no wonder that the boss is so enthusiastic, Fan Jinyan said that the two of them are wearing suits and leather shoes today, and at first glance, they are not people who go to the market all day long, and the boss only thinks that the two of them are Kaizi who can be slaughtered.
Fan Jinyan looked at the antiques placed in the store, and insiders knew at a glance that he didn't understand.
The boss smiled secretly, you can open a show today.
Fan Jinyan listened to the boss's explanation while looking, until Ji Lingyun coughed, and then remembered the purpose of this time, so he said: "Boss, in fact, I didn't come to buy antiques this time." β
"What, don't buy antiques, you fart! It makes me waste half a day of saliva. Let's go! Don't let me get in the way of my business. "The boss is going to pick up someone after he finishes speaking.
Fan Jinyan didn't talk nonsense, took out a jue cup and shook it in front of him and said, "This is a good thing!" β
"Go and go, take some fakes all day long, fool around, you are a fool!" The boss said impatiently.
Fan Jinyan smiled and said mysteriously: "This is what I just took out of the tomb." β
The boss was shocked when he heard this, if he really just came out of the tomb, maybe it was something good! Hurriedly took the cup from Fan Jinyan's hand, picked up the magnifying glass on the table, and looked at it carefully.
It's okay not to look at it, but the more you look at it, the more frightened you are, this jue cup is definitely not a fake, whether it is exquisite workmanship or patina.
The boss once saw a three-legged dragon and phoenix cup that was exactly the same as the current one, and the auction price was as high as eight million at that time.
The boss suppressed his excitement, and carefully put down the cup before saying slowly: "Your cup is an imitation of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and it is worth 50,000 yuan." β
Fan Jinyan didn't know that the boss wanted to hack this baby, so he joked: "It's not true, you won't understand, we are all mixed up in this industry." You can not buy it, but don't think about black and black. β
The boss saw that Fan Jinyan was about to reach out to take the cup on the table, and hurriedly said, "Brother said it earlier!" You can come to me, this is to look up to me Liu Dahai. So, let me take a look at it again, how about giving my brother a real price? β
Fan Jinyan also took advantage of the situation to withdraw his hand, and waited for Liu Dahai to continue the appraisal.
Although Liu Dahai was holding a magnifying glass, his mind was not on the cup. The man and woman he saw should be freshmen who had just started fighting, and they had little experience. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come here, but he wouldn't underestimate the two of them, and those who fought were usually outlaws. What he was thinking about now was how to make this first deal with these two people, so that he could have more contacts in the future.
"Since my brothers are all people in the circle, I will give a real price, how about two million?" Liu Dahai said and raised two fingers.
Fan Jinyan tried his best to make a frowning expression, but his heart was like a sea of mountains, Liang Liang said that this kind of cup is worth about one million, but he didn't expect this Boss Liu to give a price of two million.
Wang Dahai frowned when he saw Fan Jinyan, thinking that he was not satisfied, and said with a bitter face: "Brother, the receiving price of this kind of Dragon and Phoenix Jue Cup is so much!" Brother can add another 100,000 at most, this is the limit. β
Fan Jinyan smiled and didn't speak, just took out the other three from his bag and put them on the table.
Seeing this, Wang Dahai sat on the chair for a long time, and then quickly took out a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became, unable to speak.
Four Western Zhou dragon and phoenix three-legged bronze cups, just a set, and they are all genuine, this will appear in the antique world, it will definitely cause a sensation!
Wang Dahai reluctantly put down the four cups and sighed: "Brother, let's tell you the truth!" I can't afford it, you're so precious. β
Fan Jinyan was also taken aback by Liu Dahai's words, and then said: "Brother has no way, I hope that Brother Liu will introduce him, and after the matter is completed, there will be heavy thanks." β
Wang Dahai was waiting for this sentence, so he smiled and said: "This kind of expensive antique, the entire capital can only be put away by the An family." β
"Settle down?"
"That's right, the An family is the largest dealer of cultural relics north of the Yangtze River, and they specialize in collecting some peerless treasures for auction. How can you sell this set of Western Zhou Dragon and Phoenix Jue Cups for about 20 million. Wang Dahai said.
Fan Jinyan thought for a while and said: "Since this is the case, then I hope that Brother Liu will be a middleman, and after the matter is completed, it will be divided into a layer of eldest brother, how about it?" β
Wang Dahai was overjoyed and hurriedly said that this matter was on him.
β¦β¦
Two days later, Wang Dahai called and said that he had contacted the people of the An family, and they were also very interested in the cup in Fan Jinyan's hand.
When Fan Jinyan heard this, he immediately rushed to the south of the city and rushed to the Anjia Auction House in the wealthy district in the east of the city with Liu Dahai. After explaining their intentions, the two were led to the manager's room by the front desk lady.
The manager of the auction house is a handsome middle-aged man surnamed Qiu, the eldest grandson-in-law of the An family. After a brief introduction, Manager Qiu motioned to Fan Jinyan to take out the cup.
When Fan Jinyan put the four dragon and phoenix cups on the table, Manager Qiu didn't touch it, but pressed the phone on the table and said a few words.
After a while, two old men in their fifties and sixties entered the manager's room, just said hello and picked up the cup and looked at it. From time to time, they nodded and muttered to each other.
Soon, the two old men put down the cups in their hands and said to Manager Qiu: "After identification, these four are all dragon and phoenix bronze cups in the early Western Zhou Dynasty, and they are well preserved without obvious cracks and damage. What's even more commendable is that these four are just a set, with an estimated value of 35 million. β
The two old men didn't talk nonsense after speaking, turned around and left the room.
"You heard the words of the two experts! Willing to sell? Manager Qiu nodded, and didn't talk nonsense.
Of course, Fan Jinyan knew that if it was auctioned, they would be able to fetch at least hundreds of millions of dollars. However, I have no way, and it is already very good to be able to get more than 30 million. So he nodded and said he was willing to sell.
"In that case, let's sign a sales contract! We only buy antique items that come from legitimate sources. After Manager Qiu finished speaking, he took two antique transfer contracts from the table and handed them to Fan Jinyan.
Fan Jinyan didn't bother to look at it, brushed and brushed...... He signed his name at the end of each contract.
On the way back, Fan Jinyan found a bank and transferred the 3.5 million promised to Liu Dahai to him. I was so happy that this fat man almost didn't call him his father.
After separating from Liu Dahai, Fan Jinyan looked at the more than 31 million displayed on his mobile phone excitedly, and really wanted to shout excitedly:
"Lao Tzu is also a rich man!!"
