PS: Keep chapters, 6200 words!

In less than five minutes, Xi Wuyu got the agreement, just looking at what was written on the agreement, he still couldn't believe his eyes, he put 60 million, no, 80 million things don't want, and in the end he only took less than 20 million, is this true temperament or really stupid?

But no matter what he thought, Li Yi had already signed his name on both agreements, and Qin Chuan only hesitated for a moment before signing his name.

"Xiao Li, this matter is no longer something that can be expressed by a simple word of thanks, so ......"

Qin Chuan is no longer called a little brother, and his tone is much more solemn than before,

"This piano is very well kept, and it should be able to play when I take it back and change it to a pair of strings, so the day after tomorrow, there are just a few friends coming over the day after tomorrow, and you can also go over together, and I will play a song for you!"

After that, he took out a business card with his name and phone number written on it, solemnly wrote the address on it, and then handed it to Li Yi.

"At 10 o'clock in the morning, I'm waiting for the two of you at home!"

After putting away the business card, putting the two packaged antiques into the backpack and holding them in his arms, Li Yi asked the old man some knowledge about the guqin, and then left with Ma Weizhong to say goodbye.

"I made a lot of money, 5 million, and in a blink of an eye, it became 20 million ......"

Ma Weizhong shook his head slightly, he originally thought that Li Yi should not choose the "Zhaoyin Map", but even so, it is not cheap for this guy to take these two pieces, not to mention, there are still six Song carved books in this backpack, and they are all Shu books!

"Earn hair! It's a big loss! ”

Li Yi's face showed a painful look, didn't you look at it just now, even if I took all five pieces, he shouldn't say anything, it's good now, tens of millions of dollars in exchange for a chance to listen to a tune, this good person really can't do it!

"Come on, you, pay attention to everything and accept it when you see it, and I don't think that old gentleman seems to be an ordinary person, maybe, the big bargain is still to come!"

Not an ordinary person? Li Yi raised his eyebrows, a guqin performance master, at most, he can only add the word famous in front of him, what other advantage can he take advantage of?

"Well, you see, I'll just say it's not ordinary. Qin Chuan, a recipient of a special state allowance, once worked in Vienna Golden. The hall has held a special solo concert, the leading famous guqin player in China, musician, professor of Huaxia Conservatory of Music, doctoral supervisor...... I'm rubbing, it's awesome! ”

So powerful? However, no matter how powerful he is, it doesn't seem to be in line with him......

"Let's go, there are a lot of good things in this market, hurry up and take a look at a few more, and strive to make up for the loss!"

When the two returned to the stall area, the news that Li Yi had just spent 5 million to buy a guqin had already spread. But fortunately, he kept an eye on it, and instead of looking down from the neighborhood where he had just bought the piano, he chose to look from the other side, so that although he could hear the talk of the deal everywhere, he was not disturbed.

But obviously, even from the beginning of a new area, not all the bosses don't know him,

"Dude, I also have a rare object here, it's not worse than that guqin at all, I don't know if you're interested?"

Li Yi had just put down a Qingtian stone carving in his hand and was about to get up to leave, when the boss suddenly stopped him.

"Oh? What is it? ”

"Antique Leica camera from 1923, how's it going, are you interested?"

Leica in 1923? Li Yi's heart jumped suddenly, during his time in Bordeaux, he had carefully studied Western antiques, including antique cameras.

There are many brands of antique cameras in Europe and the United States, the cheap ones can be bought for a few hundred euros, but the expensive ones are possible, hundreds of thousands or even millions of euros.

Among them, the Leica series of cameras, which originated in Germany and has a history of more than 100 years, are the darlings of antique camera collectors, not only known as the myth of the camera, but also known as the "Rolls-Royce of the camera kingdom".

A big reason why Rolls-Royce is remembered is because it is so cheap and expensive, and the same is true for Leica. Moreover, when it comes to Leica cameras that left the factory in 1923, most of them refer to a batch of special existences produced in that year, and that batch of cameras, each of which is sky-high today.

This special group of beings is the Leica Null-Serie. This model of camera, as a test engineering machine in 1923 produced a total of 25, after nearly a hundred years of history of baptism, only 12 currently existing, as early as 2012, had been auctioned 2.6 million euros a sky-high price, if according to its previous price increase estimates, to today, its price on the bright side should be close to 4 million euros!

A camera with 30 million soft sister coins, even if you don't buy it, it's good to take a look!

"Where's the thing? What model? ”

"Leica Null-Serie, number 116, absolutely real guy!"

The boss stood up as he spoke,

"The things are in the store, whether you want to buy them or not, you have to look at the goods first."

Turning around and asking the stall owner next to him to help him take care of the business, the boss took Li Yi towards the shop area by the square.

"On weekends, business in the square is better than in the shops, so many shops have stalls here......

While explaining, the boss led Li Yi and the two into a shop with an area of about 50 square meters, mainly dealing in repatriated cultural relics.

"You two can take a casual look first, and I'll go get the camera."

Li Yi nodded, motioned to the boss to take care of himself, and then slowly walked to a shelf with dozens of antique cameras, and looked up and down.

After a cursory look, Li Yi found that the brands of these cameras are very mixed, including domestic happiness, seagull, red plum, Dongfang, as well as German Lulai, American Kodak and other brands, but since they can be placed outside, they should not be too precious.

After thinking about it for a while, he simply opened the spirit identification card directly and touched them one by one. At this time, Ma Weizhong, who had nothing to do, also walked to his side, picked up an old-fashioned camera casually, looked at it in front of him, and suddenly smiled:

"This camera is a bit interesting, it's actually the same brand as the car, and I don't know what year it is......"

"What brand?"

"Dongfeng heavy truck, haha, second automobile!"

"Dongfeng?"

Li Yi raised his eyebrows, took the camera from his hand, looked at it a few times, and said with a smile:

"Don't underestimate this camera, just this one, it's enough for a Mercedes-Benz."

"Change to Mercedes? No kidding? ”

Ma Weizhong was taken aback, you said ancient porcelain, ancient jade, Thaksin, but this thing, it is only a few decades old to survive, and it can actually change to a Mercedes-Benz, I don't read much, don't lie to me!

"What are you lying to? Dongfeng camera is a brand in the 70s of the last century, is designed based on Sweden's Hasselblad Blad camera, all handmade, the cost of production and development is extremely high, now there should be no more than 100 units, this is not bad, it is estimated to be hundreds of thousands. ”

"This ......"

Seeing Ma Weizhong's stunned look, Li Yi smiled and decided to give him a vaccination first, otherwise he would see the Leica Null-Serie later, and he was afraid that he would directly scare him out.

"Any kind of collection can not be underestimated, just like a world famous painting can be auctioned for hundreds of millions of dollars, an ancient porcelain can be sold for hundreds of millions of soft sister coins, there are also very valuable ones in antique cameras, hundreds of thousands are nothing at all, and if the boss takes out the one later, if it is genuine, the price is ......."

"How much? Millions? ”

Ma Weizhong was a little nervous.

"Twenty or thirty million."

"I'll go! Are you sure you're not talking about VND? ”

Ma Weizhong gasped, this simply subverted his values!

Li Yi shook his head slightly, if that Leica Null-Serie is really an original and genuine product, at this price, it is still okay whether people sell it or not!

"Oh, it's really a long time to follow you on this trip, Nima, a camera is tens of millions, I can only say that this world is spoiled by you local tyrants......"

Li Yi laughed twice, and when he saw that the boss had walked out of the room behind the counter, he walked back to the small round table in the negotiation area and picked up the camera.

This camera is indeed a Leica Null-Serie, and it is quite well preserved, not only are the parts not defective, but even the skin on the body is not damaged.

"Boss, how do you sell this?"

"Since my brother can recognize this camera, he should have also understood its price, I won't talk about the false price, 26 million, this price, if you get it to Europe, after deducting the commission, you can at least earn more than one million."

Earn more than a million? I can make so much money, but I'm afraid that you will run to shoot it yourself, and you will wait to come and cheapen me?

Li Yi shook his head, such an expensive antique camera, let alone in China, even if it is in the world, the publicity is not in place, and if you meet the wrong person, you can't sell it at a high price!

"Boss, you should understand that in many cases, the auction price does not represent the true value of a thing, and there are too many accidental factors here. In this way, I won't take advantage of you, 15 million, 15 million can be sold, I will take it, if there is more, ......"

He shook his head and put the camera back on the table.

"15 million? Brother, at your price, don't you sincerely want to buy it. ”

Li Yi didn't speak, just smiled and looked at the boss, it really doesn't matter if he buys this camera or not, but if he can really win it at a price lower than 18 million, he should still be able to take some advantage.

However, this cheapness does not mean that he is sure that he can be auctioned for more than 18 million, but he thought of the two cultural relics exchanges he had done in Europe before.

Although there are few things he can exchange at the moment, if he really lets the news out, he believes that it should be able to attract a few or even a dozen international collecting giants, and at that time, this camera should be useful.

"In this way, I won't say 26 million, and you don't say 1500, let's all make up the middle, you see, how about 24 million?"

Li Yi continued not to speak, but shook his head slightly.

The two were in a stalemate for about 3 minutes, and the boss gritted his teeth.

"16 million! Okay, just do it, if not, you can go to another house and take a look, below this price, I will lose money! ”

Ten minutes later, Li Yi and the two walked out of the store, and in his bag, not only the Leica Null-Serie, but also the Dongfeng camera that Ma Weizhong had accidentally seen just now, this was taken as a gift by Li Yi and snatched it from the boss.

"16 million, I bought this broken thing...... The world of local tyrants, it's really not me waiting for fart. What the people can understand, alas......"

Ma Weizhong saw Li Yi's indifferent face, as if the 16 million just now was not money at all, and couldn't help but shake his head and sigh, why is the gap between people so big?

"Hehe, it's good luck, just for you to see, in fact, there are very few things like this in the market that are not enough to describe ......"

As Li Yi was talking, a figure suddenly popped out of the shade on the side, blocking their way.

This is a young man in his twenties, wearing a very ordinary blue T-shirt, holding a long flannel pocket in his arms, and the expression on his face is very complicated, a little excited, a little nervous, and a little hesitant.

"Sir, do you still want to buy a guqin?"

"Guqin?"

Li Yi frowned and glanced at the thing he was holding in his arms,

"What you're holding is also a guqin?"

"Well, my family's heirloom guqin would never be sold, but now I'm waiting for money to save my life, and I can't ...... it."

Li Yi shook his head helplessly, the news of this market spread too quickly, but he spent 5 million to buy a guqin, and as a result, all the cows, ghosts, snakes and gods came to the door, and he was really used as a gold mine?

"This guqin is absolutely real!"

The young man saw that Li Yi regarded him as a liar, and couldn't help but be anxious,

"You just look at it, look at it, if it's fake, I'll ......"

"Okay, don't get excited, I see, I can't think it's okay?"

Li Yi looked left and right, thought for a while, and said:

"Come with me."

He took the young man and turned around and walked back to the shop where he had just bought the camera.

"Boss, borrow a table and look at something."

"It's okay, just use it."

The boss had just made a big business, and he hadn't gone to the square to guard the stall for a long time, or maybe he just went to the stall just to wait for Li Yi.

As soon as Li Yi sat down, the young man couldn't wait to take out the guqin, and then looked at him with bulging eyes, looking very nervous.

This guqin is also a Fuxi-style guqin, and looking at the style, it seems to be a Tang qin, but the body is painted vermilion, and there are patched ink black, vermilion lacquer and other colors, only from the lacquer color, it should be something that is some years old.

This piano looks slightly different from the previous imitation of the Great Sage's relic, but the biggest difference between the two is the broken lines on the body.

Because the age of the Great Sage's relict imitation piano is not too old, there are not too many broken lines. And this one, the whole body is covered with small snake belly broken, if you look closely, you can also see some calf hair broken, and it looks like a real Tang Dynasty guqin.

Li Yi originally planned to send people away with a simple look, but after seeing these characteristics, he couldn't help but hesitate.

He stood up, turned the piano over, and then was slightly stunned, staring at the four seal characters inscribed above the dragon pond on the back of the piano.

"Heh, it's actually Jiuxiao Huanpei! If you're real, young man, it's worth it! ”

Behind Li Yi, the boss's slightly joking voice came.

"Worth the money? How much is it worth? ”

"How much is it worth? Let me tell you, there are currently less than 20 Tang Dynasty guqins handed down in the world, of which there are four named Jiuxiao Huanpei, one in the Yanjing Palace Museum, one in the Chinese History Museum, one in the Ningliao Provincial Museum, and one in private hands. Among them, the piano in private hands often appears in some large-scale concerts, and experts estimate that 400 million! You say, how much is your piano worth? ”

“4…… 400 million? ”

The young man was about to cry, Nima, even if he let his imagination fly, he didn't dare to think that this piano could be worth 400 million! And let alone 400 million, let him open 4 million, he is weak!

"Okay, okay, I said you really believe it! Hurry up and go home, just this little bit of IQ, and learn from others to deceive people? Believe it or not, I'll call the police! ”

Li Yi had just bought the boss's 16 million camera, so the boss was very helpful and directly began to help him chase away customers.

The young man shuddered for a moment, then his neck stiffened, and he exclaimed:

"Didn't the Great Sage's Last Voice just now be sold, why is this one of mine fake?"

"Yo, boy, you're still a cow! I ......"

Seeing the two arguing, Li Yi waved his hand and asked:

"How are you going to sell this piano?"

"I ...... Anyway, this qin is not a fake, it is a guqin! ”

Li Yi shook his head speechlessly, the boss said it was fake, but it wasn't him who you were selling......

"Okay, let's not care if it's true or not, let's talk about how much money you want."

"Hmm...... 5 million! ”

"How much?"

"Uh...... In fact, 4 million is fine. ”

"I'm rubbing, you still say it's not a lie! Security, security! ”

The boss laughed angrily, I've seen a lot of liars, but I've never seen such a weak and short-hearted person!

"Just 4 million! I'm not afraid if you call the security guards, this piano has been in my house for decades, it's not fake! ”

"Okay, okay, you two don't quarrel, I'm going to buy the piano, okay?"

Li Yi bared his teeth with a headache, at this moment, his heart was still full of confusion, these two irrelevant ones did it first.

"You can tell me the real price, if it is appropriate, I will keep this piano."

Seeing that the two of them had finally quieted down, Li Yi turned his head and said to the young man.

"That'...... 3.8 million, it really can't be lower. ”

Li Yi lowered his head and groaned, this qin is indeed a Tang qin, and it is indeed a Jiuxiao ring peiqin, but it is not really worth 400 million, this matter, it is difficult to say.

Before, he didn't understand the value composition of a guqin, and 5 million to buy the Great Sage's relict qin was also because of the six Song carved piano scores, but after an exchange with Qin Chuan, he knew that the guqin is not necessarily the older the better, and its sound quality is the most important factor affecting its value.

Let's put it this way, if it is a waste piano and can no longer be played, then its value can only be regarded as an ordinary Tang Dynasty cultural relic, according to its appearance, inheritance, it may be worth tens of millions, or it may only be sold for millions.

And if it can still be played, and the sound quality is beautiful, then, the value is immeasurable, although the estimate of 400 million is a bit outrageous, but if it is Jiuxiao Huanpei, breaking the auction record of 136 million for the "Songshi Yiqin" is just a snap of the fingers.

The young man saw Li Yi groaning, nervously wanted to speak several times, but in the end he held back, and the boss also opened his mouth several times to speak, but finally turned into a long sigh, he said everything to this extent, but people still want to buy it, what else can he do?

"Okay, 3.8 million is 3.8 million, I'll bet on this!"

asked the boss to borrow a pen and paper, wrote two transfer agreements, Li Yi transferred the payment directly, and then called Qin Chuan when he went out, he wanted to find Old Man Qin to help him watch the piano.

"This piano ...... It's true? ”

Seeing that Li Yi threw out another 3.8 million without blinking, Ma Weizhong couldn't help but smile bitterly and shook his head, this game is really not something ordinary people can afford to play.

"Well, it's really true, but I don't know if it's a waste piano, the quality of this piano is much worse than the Great Sage's relict just now......"

"If it's a scrap, how much is it worth?"

When Li Yi asked Qin Chuan for guqin knowledge just now, Ma Weizhong was also on his side, so he was very concerned about whether this business would lose money.

"If it is a waste piano, it is estimated that it should be worth more than 5 million, in fact, the most important thing is that there are too many Jiuxiao rings, if there is only this one, even if it is a waste piano, this condition, I estimate that it can be sold for more than 10 million."

"Oh, it's good if you don't pay for it, what does the old man say, do you have time?"

Li Yi nodded, walked quickly to the gate of the market, took a taxi, and arrived at Qin Chuan's door in just 30 minutes.

Qin Chuan's house is not in Chang'an City, but in a villa area between Chang'an and Yangxian, after welcoming the two into the living room, the old man didn't talk nonsense, and directly took the piano out of the piano bag.

"Good piano, good piano!"

The old man looked up and down, left, right, and right for more than ten minutes, and kept knocking on various parts of the piano in the middle.

"This piano is definitely not a waste piano, but whether it can achieve its original sound quality, you have to try it to know, you wait a while, I will take out the strings and hang them to try."

After a while, the old man came down from the stairs with a string,

"The ancient strings are mostly made of silk, but this kind of string is easy to break, and the sound is small, not suitable for playing in the public, and a good horsetail string is also good, this string has good toughness and a pleasant sound, which should be more suitable for this piano. However, let's try silk strings first......"

After a few simple fiddling strokes, the old man put on the strings, and then began to tune them one by one, and after a few minutes, his face became serious.

"Come with me, let's go to the piano room."

The two followed Qin Chuan to the piano room on the second floor, Qin Chuan first washed his hands with water, then sat down behind the piano stand, took a deep breath, and pressed the strings with both hands.

"Immortal ......"

A slightly dull piano sounded, and then, I saw the old man waving his hands continuously, wiping, picking, hooking, ticking, and playing all kinds of fingering in turn, and a crisp sound like autumn pools falling in the deep mountains came out from under his fingers, instantly filling the entire piano room!

This is a peerless piano! (To be continued.) )
