Chapter 256: My Suggestion Is
"Where did you get it, young man?"
Old Man Liu was obviously very interested in this blue and white flat pot, and when he asked this, his tone and attitude became more cordial and kind.
"By chance."
Zhou Chen replied: "But I'm not an antique collector, so I want you to help me estimate what the price of this thing is." “
This is very vulgar, but it doesn't matter, I have already frankly claimed that I am not a person in this circle, and it doesn't matter if I am vulgar or not.
And it was also right on Old Man Liu's thoughts, the old man was secretly happy, and immediately asked, "What, what do you mean, are you going to sell it?" ”
"Well, yes."
Zhou Chen nodded: "In my opinion, it is better to turn it into cash." ”
"Haha, okay."
Old Man Liu couldn't help laughing and said, "The young man has a frank temperament, which is very good." ”
Seeing such a plot development, his granddaughter and the middle-aged man on the side looked natural, and they didn't think there was anything strange about it, for a person who doesn't like to collect, it is understandable to turn things into cash.
But the young man, at this time, looked at Zhou Chen with obvious contempt, and seemed to look down on the copper smell of his body.
Old Man Liu didn't care what others thought and thought, he immediately got up and said to Zhou Chen: "Xiao Zhou, let's talk in the room." ”
Zhou Chen understood what he meant, immediately picked up the blue and white flat pot, and followed him into a room in the hall, which was obviously Old Man Liu's study, with the four treasures of the study room on the table, and several calligraphy and Chinese paintings hanging on the walls around him, Zhou Chen still didn't understand these. I can only guess: these things in the house must be antiques, and they are certainly not cheap. If this old man dares to play tricks and covet my flat pot, we will steal all these treasures from him when we turn around......
Next. The old man took out a complete set of treasure appreciation tools, sat down, carefully appraised it calmly, and finally nodded with satisfaction, and said to Zhou Chen: "Last year, there was a blue and white flat pot in Hong Kong, which was also an official kiln in Xuande, which was similar to yours, and it was auctioned for a price of 6.2 million. I pondered. If I want to collect this pot, I can give you 5.5 million ...... Well, that's pretty much the price, boy, what do you think? ”
I thought that Zhou Chen would think about it, but unexpectedly, he immediately nodded: "Old man, don't bring change." Five million is enough. Tomorrow is your birthday, I am not a rich man, I can't afford to give too expensive gifts, even if I wish you a long life and health in advance. Happy birthday. ”
The old man was slightly stunned, and then laughed and said, "Okay, good." Since you say that, I'm really embarrassed to be polite to you. Ha ha. Young man, your gift cost me five million. But I really like it! ”
The reason why Zhou Chen is so cheerful is mainly due to two reasons: first, although Old Man Liu has retired, his influence in China has not weakened much, this is a big man, and it will naturally not hurt to get acquainted with him.
Moreover, Phantom also searched on the Internet, indeed, our blue and white flat pot is almost worth this price, but don't forget, if you go to the auction, you still have to pay taxes, and you have to pay a few percent of the commission of the auction house, and then deduct some messy expenses such as advertising and secret speculation, and in the end, it must be no more than five million.
The old man spent less money, we got more money, and we can also form a good relationship with each other, why not do it.
"Old man, this pot belongs to you."
Zhou Chen clapped his hands, meaning, I can leave empty-handed.
"Okay, okay."
Old Man Liu nodded and replied, "I'll ask the secretary to come and transfer money to you." ”
In less than two minutes, his secretary came in, a man with glasses in his thirties, polite and polite, and he gave people a rather reliable feeling by looking at his appearance.
It was also straightforward to do things, and with online banking transfers, Zhou Chen's account immediately had an extra five million yuan.
As soon as a person has money, it seems that it is easier to make money, Zhou Chen didn't have time to spend it, and the income is still smashing on his head, so far, there are more than 20 million in the account.
After chatting with Mr. Liu for a few more words, Zhou Chen was about to say goodbye and leave, but the old man sent a warm invitation to Zhou Chen to come to his birthday banquet tomorrow.
Originally, Zhou Chen didn't like to join in this kind of excitement, but the old man had already spoken, so it was not easy to refuse, so he could only nod and agree.
When he came out, Zhou Chen met the young man in the courtyard, in fact, he already knew that his name was Zhao Xuanhe, and Old Man Liu had just introduced him to everyone.
"Why didn't Mu Qianlan come? The old man's birthday, she hasn't been here for two years, and she's so busy with work? ”
Zhao Xuanhe was not polite at all, and stopped Zhou Chen in a domineering tone, as if Zhou Chen was his subordinate.
Is it because you're there?
Zhou Chen guessed so in his heart, of course he wouldn't say it, but replied lightly: "What Mu always thinks, how can I know." It's not that Mr. Zhao doesn't have her phone, so he can find out if he asks. ”
"What is your position in Light Blue Media?"
Seeing that Zhou Chen didn't mean anything to himself, Zhao Xuanhe's face was even worse, and he took a step forward, aggressive, and there were some signs of coercion.
However, his little momentum was not a fart in Zhou Chen's eyes, and Zhou Chen squinted slightly: "Why are you asking this?" ”
His eyes narrowed, but an indescribable evil aura was released, making Zhao Xuanhe subconsciously retreat.
He was stunned, and for a moment he couldn't understand why he was scared, why he was so frightened that he withdrew, and then approached back very unconvinced.
Zhou Chen didn't have the patience to play this kind of spring game of advance and retreat with him, and as soon as he turned around, he was about to leave.
"Zhou Chen!"
Zhao Xuanhe himself didn't know what was going on, so he exploded, and shouted from behind: "Do you know, I can let Mu Qianlan fire you, you stop for me......"
Zhou Chen was also angry when he heard this, turned around and waved to him with a smile: "Okay, it's not convenient to talk here, let's go out and say, as long as you are kind and can give me the least respect, I will tell you some recent things about Mr. Mu, and only I know." ”
Zhao Xuanhe frowned, but still followed him out of the gate of the manor.
When he went out and turned left, he came to a tree, Zhou Chen saw that there was no one around, and there was no monitoring probe, so he turned around and reached out, grabbed Zhao Xuanhe's neck, and pressed him to the trunk of the tree, and his feet were about to leave the ground.
"Uh......"
Zhao Xuanhe's face was full of shock, but he was so strangled that he couldn't speak, and could only look at Zhou Chen with extremely frightened eyes.
In just ten seconds, Zhou Chen put him down, patted him on the back, helped him cough hard, and comforted him softly: "I'm sorry, I'm impulsive, I can't control myself a little, this time it's quite light, next time I might really strangle you." Brother Zhao, my suggestion is, for the sake of world peace, don't come to provoke me. ”
Zhao Xuanhe bent over, covering his neck with his hands, coughing and retching, this moment was indescribably uncomfortable, and he couldn't think about it at all, why did Zhou Chen dare to do this, why was he so bold......
In fact, the answer is very simple, Zhou Chen only knows his name, and he doesn't know which green onion or garlic he is. (To be continued.) )
