Chapter 677: On Selling Two Pounds?
PS: I will ask for a monthly pass in the second half of the month, please support me.
Hearing that Wang Guan spent seven million to buy something, Qian Lao was of course very interested, so he didn't even read the book, and directly beckoned Wang Guan to come to the study, and then put the scroll on the table and slowly spread it out to look at it.
"Fuchun Mountain Residence Map." Qian Lao is more experienced, and when he saw the inscription on the opening of the book, he immediately knew what the origin of this painting was, and then said with a smile: "This painting is the same as the Qingming Shanghe Map, there are many versions. But to make you spend such a large price to buy, it should be from the handiwork of a famous artist. ”
"You guessed right." Wang Guan suddenly smiled and said: "This is an imitation of Wang Hui, one of the four kings who was known as the saint of painting in the early Qing Dynasty. ”
"Is it really him?" Qian Lao was also a little surprised: "Is it the one that was lost overseas?" ”
While speaking, Qian Lao gently unfolded the scroll by half, and then just glanced at it slightly, his brows furrowed, and then asked in a deep voice: "Why is this painting in your hand?" ”
"Old Qian, what's wrong with this painting?"
Wang Guan was stunned and said: "I have carefully identified it, and I feel that it should be Wang Hui's authentic handiwork." ”
"It's not that the work is wrong, but this painting ......" Qian Lao wanted to speak and stopped, and suddenly seemed to understand something, and immediately sighed softly: "It was sold to you by the Jia family." ”
"Uh......"
When Wang Guan heard this, he also understood a little, and immediately said cautiously: "Old Qian, this is your friend's treasure?" ”
In fact, when he was in the Relics Pavilion, Wang Guan vaguely felt that Jia Qin should be an unfilial descendant who sold his ancestral treasures. That's why he sighed, because he knew that another great collector had passed away. Now seeing Qian Lao's reaction, he is even more sure of his speculation.
"Sort of." Qian Lao sighed slightly: "It belongs to the general friends, but I often move around during the New Year's holidays......"
After sighing, Qian Lao said simply: "You don't need to look at this painting, it is indeed an imitation of Wang Hui, you bought the right seven million, I want someone to bid 10 million back then." He had no intention of making a move. ”
"Old money."
Wang Guan thought about it, but still said truthfully: "The person who sold me the painting is a young man, about the same age as me. After completing the transaction, he invited me to his house tomorrow. ”
“…… Go ahead. ”
Qian Lao was stunned for a moment, and then said wistfully: "Some things fall into your hands, it is better than falling into the hands of others." ”
"Hmm."
Wang Guan nodded lightly, knowing that Qian Lao was not interested in looking at the painting, so he hurriedly put the painting away and changed to other topics.
Despite this, Qian Lao still looked like he was in a hurry. Suddenly, he patted Wang Guan on the shoulder and encouraged: "Work hard to make money, it doesn't take too much, you can have more than ten or two billion before the age of forty." ”
"What?" Wang Guan is a little inexplicable.
Qian Lao smiled, and didn't mean to explain, so he went straight to the back garden to water the flowers and grass.
At the same time, Wang Guancai slowly tasted it, and couldn't help but speak: "More than ten or two billion, how rich the collection should be." Seeing that hiding in the house is just the tip of the iceberg...... Wait, is this unit in RMB or USD? Or the euro? ”
Wang Guan shook his head and sighed, clearly feeling for the first time how big the gap between himself and the big collectors was. The psychology that was a little lax suddenly became invigorated. With the goal of catching up, it is natural to be full of motivation.
The next morning, Wang Guan drove energetically to the address provided by Jia Qin. However, after coming to the place, he realized that it seemed that Jia Qin was not just inviting him alone.
Anyway, I saw a row of cars parked in front of the villa. Wang Guan knew that he had a lot of competitors today.
"Let's just say, how can there be such a good thing......" Wang Guan calmed down and immediately smiled indifferently. Then under the guidance of the servant, he slowly walked into the hall,
As soon as he walked in, Wang Guan swept his eyes, but he found a lot of people he knew. I can't say that I am an acquaintance, at least I have dealt with each other, and I am a nodding friend. Of course, there are also acquaintances, that is, an old man wearing a dark red Tang costume and playing with two iron galls in his hand.
When he saw Wang Guan, the old man was also a little surprised, and greeted, "Why are you here too?" ”
"Chang Lao, if you can come, why can't I come?" Wang Guan said with a smile, and after nodding to those who knew him, he walked to Rong Bao Zhai to worship Chang Lao.
"It's good to come and see the excitement." Chang Lao nodded, quite meaningful. Of course, Wang Guan could hear the off-string sound of these words, which was nothing more than a hint that he was there, and Wang Guan was estimated to return in vain this trip.
In this regard, Wang Guan just smiled, and naturally he didn't care. Psychological tactics, whoever really loses first. After sitting down next to Chang Lao, he immediately looked around and found that Jia Qin was not exposed, maybe no one came.
However, a servant poured tea up, Wang Guan smiled and expressed his gratitude, raised his glass and took a sip, but heard Chang Lao next to him ask: "Boy, I haven't seen you in the capital recently, where did you go?" ”
"Hong Kong." Wang Guan put down the cup and said with a smile: "I went shopping in Hong Kong with my girlfriend." ”
"." Chang Lao definitely didn't believe it, his eyes swept over Wang Guan, and suddenly his eyes lit up slightly: "The jade wrench finger on your hand seems to be quite chic, bring it to me and show it." ”
Wang Guan subconsciously stretched out his hand to cover the topaz wrench, which is also Qian Lao's guidance, the so-called jade raises people, human-shaped jade, jade pieces should be played with often, so that jade and people's hearts can be connected, full of spirituality, so he often wears it on his hand and raises it. After all, as a professional connoisseur, if you don't wear something that can highlight your identity, you are embarrassed to go out to meet people.
Unexpectedly, Chang Lao's eyes were sharp, and he immediately noticed the unusual wrench.
However, Wang Guan didn't admit it, but chuckled: "It's just an ordinary Huanglongyu, wearing it for foolish purposes, don't dare to show ugliness, so as not to make Chang Lao laugh at you." ”
"Don't do that." Chang Lao squinted, he was old and fine, how could he be fooled so easily. You must know that it is not a good thing, how can Wang Guan attach so much importance to it.
Just when Chang Lao was about to put up a shelf and stretched out his hand to ask for it, someone from outside the hall came in again. It was a silver-bearded crane-haired, energetic old man, wearing loose clothes, and a pair of cloth shoes on the soles of his feet, looking very casual.
"Zeng Lao!"
The moment they saw the man, many people in the hall stood up and said hello. Of course, a respected old-timer like Chang Lao just nodded his head and didn't have to be so polite.
Seeing this, Wang Guan also stood up with the crowd, and after a little thought, he whispered: "Chang Lao, that Zeng Lao, is the great worship of Jiade, right?" ”
The collection circle in the capital is said to be big and big, and small is small, even if some people have not seen it, but they should have heard of it, as long as they compare it, they can connect it.
"Yes, it's him." Chang Lao affirmed.
Although it is also a big offering, and they belong to different auction companies, according to the logic that peers are enemies, Chang Lao and Zeng Lao should be in a situation where they do not get along with each other even if they are not mortal enemies. But the truth is just the opposite, after seeing that Chang Lao was also there, Zeng Lao came over with a smile and greeted him very warmly.
Chang Lao also smiled, and directly waved Wang Guan away, letting Zeng Lao sit down next to him. Respect the old and love the young, Wang Guan didn't have any opinions, so he moved a chair nearby and sat down.
After some greetings, Zeng Lao suddenly smiled and said, "Brother Chang, what did Rong Bao get?" ”
This question was mindless, but Chang Lao understood it, hesitated for a moment, and then said softly: "It's nothing, it's just a piece of porcelain from the Yuan Dynasty." ”
"Oh." Zeng Lao nodded slightly: "It's the red glaze." ”
"How do you know?" Chang Lao was stunned for a moment, and suddenly reacted: "That egg white glaze Guardian has been received?" ”
"Hmm."
Zeng Lao responded, and his expression was not very happy. Chang Lao is similar, since he knows so much about the things of the Jia family, it also shows that they also have some friendship with Old Man Jia. So after seeing the death of Old Man Jia, the Jia family began to sell Old Man Jia's lifelong collection, which made the two of them happy in their hearts.
After a moment of silence, Chang Lao turned around and asked, "Wang Guan, what did you collect?" ”
At this time, Wang Guan also understood the meaning of the two people's words, and did not conceal it, and said bluntly: "Wang Hui's imitation of Fuchun Mountain residence. ”
"That's a good thing, too." Chang Lao sighed and continued to ask others.
This is to exchange information, and there are no stupid people present, and they all cooperate. Everyone bought the items sent by Jia Qin at a relatively high price, and then they were invited by him to come over.
In addition, after the exchange, Wang Guan also had a bottom in his heart, the things that Jia Qin shot were precious, but there should be better treasures on hand. Now inviting everyone to come over is nothing more than trying to create an environment similar to a small auction and strive to maximize profits.
Of course, knowing is knowing, but this is a conspiracy that cannot be resolved.
Because of the different identities of the people present, there are large auction companies, antique dealers who run orders, and even big collectors who are not bad for money, it is basically impossible to unite to reach a consensus.
And when everyone was whispering, Jia Qin also walked in outside, with an apologetic smile: "I'm really sorry to keep everyone waiting." ”
"It's okay, we're just here."
After a few polite words of politeness between you and me, Jia Qin said with a smile: "Everyone is here, as for the purpose, you must have a plan in your heart." There's a lot of stuff, and it's not easy to move here, so let's come with me. ”
While speaking, Jia Qin led the way in front, Wang Guan and the others naturally did not hesitate, and followed him out of the living room directly, and then came to a wide room in a roundabout way.
The room is very spacious, with rows of shelves scattered and divided into different areas. At a glance, there are so many things on the shelves that it is equivalent to a small museum.
At the same time, Jia Qin said: "Everyone has seen that there are a lot of things, and I am too lazy to sell them one by one......"
"What do you mean?"
For a moment, everyone was quite surprised, things are not sold by piece, is it a matter of catties? (To be continued.) )
