Chapter 19: Imperial Green Emerald
(Say a few digressions, because in my hometown, there is no network in the countryside, the update is late, an hour later, the second chapter is presented, and I ask for recommended votes and collections by the way, thank you)
Less than ten seconds after Tang Yi sent the photo, the online reception staff of Christie's auction house gave back the message, and the text was a little excited: "Hello, Mr. (Madam), are these jewels and that piece of imperial green jadeite going to be auctioned for us?" ”
"Imperial Green!"
Tang Yi saw the other party's reply, and almost threw away the phone, imperial green is the highest grade in jadeite, regardless of the water species for the time being, just the word imperial green, it can be worth a lot of money. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
Although Tang Yi had never seen what the Imperial Green Jade looked like, he had heard Yan Hong mention it.
I've never eaten pork, and I've seen pigs run.
It was when I was in college, someone pursued Yan Hong's eldest sister, and spent more than 5 million soft sister coins to buy a glass imperial green ring for Yan Hong and his sister!
One ring is worth five million!
Thinking of this, Tang Yi couldn't calm down, and immediately typed the word imperial green into the search engine, and suddenly many pictures and encyclopedia explanations appeared on the web page.
Imperial green, green authentic, rich in color, like green oil, and emerald is also the same grade. When observed, you can see that the green is blue, but it is not biased, just like the red is purple. The color of imperial green, among jadeite, is the king, and no type can be surpassed, and the price is the highest.
Its authentic color gives people a noble sense of beauty, and it is the Jade Emperor.
Most of its water species are glass species, few ice species, waxy species are even rarer, and floating flowers are the rarest. But...... The price of imperial green water is not uncommon, but the glass imperial green jadeite is more noble and valuable.
In 2010, after the complete depletion of Myanmar jadeite mines, the price of jadeite has skyrocketed, and imperial green jadeite has become a rare treasure.
The rest of the imperial green jadeite is completely rough and has been made into jewelry.
There are also a few pieces of jadeite rough that have opened out of the imperial green skylight, but not all of them have been unlocked.
After reading the annotation of the imperial green jadeite, Tang Yi turned out the photo of the glass jadeite again, and then held the fist-sized jadeite and compared it carefully.
There is no too detailed explanation for the glass imperial green on the Internet, and Tang Yi can only distinguish it by himself.
This piece of jadeite, almost the same as glass, shows a transparent luster, and the palm of the hand is dragged underneath, although the palm print cannot be seen clearly, but the five fingers can be clearly seen.
Inside the jadeite, it is more like there is sea water flowing, and it does feel a little greasy to the touch, and it is slippery. The texture is pure and delicate, without the slightest impurity, and there are no cracks!
This special mother is a piece of superb glass imperial green jade!
Feeling that he was still a bit amateurish, Tang Yi opened the penguin software, and was stunned for a moment, the four auction houses he contacted before had all replied to the messages, among which Sotheby's auction house had the most replies to the message, and in just a few minutes, there were more than twenty messages.
The second was Christie's Auction House, which was the first to reply to Tang Yi, and the online receptionist found that Tang Yi was silent, and he was immediately anxious and sent several messages in succession.
David Auction House and Phillips only replied to two messages, Tang Yi opened it and saw that the content was similar, saying that they had notified the professional jewelry appraiser and asked Tang Yi's address, and they wanted to come over in person!
Then open the window of Christie's and Sotheby's, the content is the same, and Sotheby's even broke out that as long as the jewelry is genuine, only three percent of the auction fee will be charged!
When looking for information about auction houses on the Internet before, Tang Yi simply read that these auction houses basically take percentages ranging from 5% or 8% of the transaction amount to the auction fee after the successful auction of the item.
Don't look at it as only a few percent, but this is not a small amount, if a seller who sends it to the auction sells an item worth 100 million soft girl coins, the auction house will have to take five or six million, and the most expensive one will take eight million auction fees.
Control at three percent, which is also a full three million soft girl coins!
However, the premise is that this item was auctioned for a sky-high price of 100 million, and if it was only 10 million, it could only draw hundreds of thousands.
Tang Yi thought about it, the jewelry aside, just this piece of imperial green jadeite that seems to be of glass species, I am afraid that it will be worth tens of millions of soft sister coins, or even higher.
Yan Hong's sister's suitor spent five million just to buy a ring face, although the jewelry company made a part, but the raw materials had to spend at least two or three million!
Moreover, he has just discovered that the Imperial Green Rough Stone that has completely unraveled the stone skin, and it is estimated that this piece in his hand in the world is the second one!
What if there are collectors who love imperial green?
This is a rough stone without any flaws, and the price is definitely several grades higher than the ring face and bracelet that are separated by the partition! If there is a world-class jeweler, it is not impossible to buy it back as a treasure in the town.
This thing is the Jade Emperor, high-end, atmospheric, and quite aristocratic!
Let's estimate it at 50 million soft sister coins, and the commission is calculated according to 5 percent, but it is more than 2 million, Sotheby's has not personally appraised these jewels now, and has offered a commission that is reduced by two percentage points, which immediately made Tang Yi's heart moved.
He is not a rich man, just a rural boy, although his life has indeed changed dramatically during this time, and he is already getting closer to being rich, but he is still a poor boy after all.
The habit of thrift and thrift that I developed when I was a child still exists.
He will never spend money that should not be spent, and he will not be stingy when he should spend it.
After politely rebuffing the three auction houses of Christie's, David and Phillips, Tang Yi sent a message to Sotheby's online receptionist, "Do you have a branch in Tasmania?" I'd like to auction these things off as soon as possible, so you'd better come over and get them appraised! ”
"Okay, I don't know what to call you?"
The receptionist seemed to have been guarding the chat window and immediately replied to Tang Yi.
Tang Yi tapped the screen of his mobile phone, "Just call me Mr. Tang!" ”
"Okay, Mr. Tang, is it convenient for you now? If it is convenient, please leave your address and your contact details. Our appraisers will arrive at your residence in the shortest possible time and identify for you! ”
"At the same time, as mentioned before, if your jadeite rough and jewelry are genuine, we will arrange a global jewelry auction within half a month, and our appraiser will also bring the contract with you, if there is no problem, you can complete the contract, and the jewelry will be kept by our auction house, which can also save time for both parties! I wonder if Mr. Tang agrees? ”
"Agreed, I urgently need a fund now, the sooner the better!"
Tang Yi immediately replied to the message, and at the same time sent his address over, Paradise Island, South Island, Goddess Lake. And, of course, along with his phone number!
After Sotheby's got the exact address, he left a sentence and arrived on time within twelve hours, and according to the usual practice, he thanked Tang Yi for choosing Sotheby's, and then didn't speak again.
Tang Yi didn't bother to continue talking nonsense, and immediately closed the chat window.
After finalizing this matter, Tang Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, these jewels are estimated to be some years old, and the price should not be low, plus that piece of imperial green jadeite, he may be able to advance to the ranks of billionaires!
It's only been a few days!
I have so much money!
But soon, Tang Yi calmed down, and now he hasn't written a word yet, and his happiness seems to be a little early, in case it's all waste, isn't it just in response to the saying that the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment?
"Calm down, Master Tang, you have to calm down!"
After taking a few deep breaths, Tang Yi gradually regained his composure.
After disposing of a small part of the jewelry, Tang Yi turned over the photo of the sunflower oil painting and the photo of the character sketch.
He was wondering if he should take these paintings for appraisal as well.
If it's true, he can scavenge a lot of money into his own account, for oil paintings, he has never had a good feeling, maybe the artistic conception has not arrived, anyway, he has never understood what foreign oil paintings are.
It's like a ghost drawing a symbol, it's a mess, and it feels like you've splashed oil paint on the drawing board.
There are only some domestic landscape paintings, although he can't understand the artistic conception, but at least he can understand what the painting is, and the inscription can also recognize some!
Playing with the imperial green jadeite on the bed, Tang Yi secretly wondered, should he wait for the appraiser from the auction house to come, and then give them an appraisal?
Tang Yi is such a person, sometimes as long as some ideas appear in his mind, as long as they are reasonable and feasible, he will put them into action.
He was not too fortunate to have money to make, and after putting all the jewelry on the bedside table, he carried a ladder to take out all the oil paintings and sketches, because he had gone in once, and he already had experience, and he did not linger in it, but only spent half an hour to take out all the figure sketches and oil paintings.
There is only one oil painting of sunflowers, and there are 33 character sketches, six of which are of an Englishwoman standing in front of a cave with two steamed buns. The other twenty-seven are all the same child squatting on the ground and teasing the birds.
The children are the same person, but the movements are different, with a few looking down at the birds at their feet, and sometimes looking up and grinning.
Even if this is a sketch, Tang Yi can see the innocence of the child from the sketch.
These sketches are definitely not something that ordinary people can draw!
Carefully put the sketches and oil paintings into the closet, Tang Yi turned over to the bed, took out the imperial green jade from the cabinet, stuffed it in his arms, and prepared to turn off the light to sleep, but after thinking about it, he was afraid that he would be too good at tossing at night, what if he fell on the floor with this thing?
