Chapter 837: Ancient Jade

There is an abnormality that is a demon, this matter Li Yi knows very well, because when he first got the spirit card, it was almost bad because of his soft heart, and this Buddha bone relic is so important, he can't help but be humble. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

"I wonder if Mr. Fujita's price can be more discounted?" Japanese people are more averse to discussing prices when dealing in antiques, but this kind of billions of dollars is not included in this list.

Fujita's quote of this price itself is also a test, normally speaking, this thing can indeed be auctioned for almost 500 million yen, if you add commissions, Li Yi's expenditure is likely to exceed 570 million, so it is already very cheap.

But having said that, as a seller, he usually needs to pay a 10% commission as a publicity fee, and what is even more terrifying is that the income of more than 400 million yuan has been applied to the highest rate of personal income tax, and even if some tax avoidance methods are used, the tax paid is likely to be as high as more than 150 million.

Of course, it is the honorable duty of every citizen to pay taxes in accordance with the law, but if you can avoid a part, especially if the amount is so huge, I am afraid that no one will be unwilling.

So in this way, if it is auctioned, even if this thing is auctioned for 500 million, the actual amount he gets is only about 300 million. Considering Li Yi's expenditure, the difference between before and after is almost half, which is actually the main reason why many things are reluctant to be auctioned, but seek deals in private.

"Well, let's do it, Mr. Li, look, how about 420 million?"

Li Yi nodded, not to mention that this price gave him the buyer's commission, plus the statue of the Taoist god, which was equivalent to giving out more than 30 million taxes that he was going to evade.

Although the tax he evaded is likely to be as high as 150 million, it is not without risk, and Li Yi has no reason to ask others to give more.

After the price was negotiated, the next thing was simple, the agreement was signed, the payment was made, and soon, the five precious statues became Li Yi's collection.

"It's like treasures everywhere......" When the thing arrived, Li Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief, and at this time he finally had time to think about why this Buddha relic appeared in the body of a Taoist god statue.

When the spirit card was opened, he saw that the relic did not have any special protection, but it was directly poured with copper juice and cast into the appearance of a god general.

"Could it really be suppressed? To put it this way, the origin of this Taoist god statue is probably not extraordinary. ”

He had been skeptical about this before, and after seeing it, he was almost able to confirm it. However, this Buddha relic is really remarkable, and it has not been destroyed under such circumstances. You must know that the melting point of copper is as high as 1083 degrees, and the maximum temperature of ordinary combustibles is only four or five hundred degrees, that is to say, the test experienced by this Buddha relic is more than two or even three times that of ordinary relics!

"Sure enough, it's Shakyamuni! It's just that the guy who can use this method to deal with this Buddha relic, I'm afraid it's not an ordinary person, this matter is very easy to do, look at the casting of this statue of the era when Taoism was estimated to be able to figure it out. ”

But it's not interesting to figure it out, from the Yuan Dynasty to the Yuan Dynasty, not only Qiu Chuji has already passed away, but even his apprentices Yin Zhiping, Li Zhichang, Song Defang and other Quanzhen sons have also been feathered and returned to immortals, what other famous people can be?

If there were, I'm afraid I wouldn't have used this method to deal with a relic, right?

Li Yi has no intention of understanding the old bad debts of the two major sects, this kind of thing is not reasonable at all, and it is not clear, anyway, this Buddha relic is extremely precious, and he must take it out.

"I just don't know which bone it is......"

The one in Famen Temple is the middle finger phalanx of Sakyamuni, this one, but the spirit card does not give a clear hint, and the shape is not very obvious, it seems to be a large bone burned leftover.

pondering all the way, and soon, they rushed to the second store arranged by Misa Aida, which mainly deals in miscellaneous items, but Aida brought them over not for these things in the storefront, but for a few ancient jade items in the owner's hands.

In Japan, it is rare to see jade ornaments, mainly because the Japanese are not interested in it. However, as one of the major cultural relics of China, Japan also swept a lot back then, and these are now scattered in the hands of some businessmen and collectors.

Because he had communicated before he came, the shopkeeper took the initiative to take out all the ancient Chinese jade he had collected.

There are a lot of ancient Chinese sayings in this collection, and the large and small pieces are added together, which is enough to fill a large box.

"I'm afraid there are a lot of good things......"

Before Li Yi could finish sighing, his eyes lit up, and he took out an ancient jade artifact from a box.

This is a dark green jade dragon, with deer eyes, snake body, pig nose, and horsehair, about 26 cm high, intact, curled up, and in a C-shaped shape.

"The curled jade dragon, the first dragon in China...... Sure enough, it's a good thing. ”

Compared with the precious jadeite and Hetian jade raw materials he has, Li Yi actually has few pieces of jade in his collection, and there are almost no pieces of ancient jade.

This jade dragon is a well-known collection in ancient jade, which is a representative cultural relic of Hongshan culture five or six thousand years ago, and was even once regarded as a symbol of Hongshan culture.

Because before this, the existence of dragon-shaped cultural relics has never been discovered, so the first jade dragon of Hongshan culture in this shape to be discovered has been called "the first dragon in China", which is an absolute national treasure.

In Li Yi's opinion, this jade dragon is much better than that national treasure in terms of both aesthetics and completeness, and it is also a national treasure-level cultural relic!

Carefully put the jade dragon back into the box, and then picked up the box aside, Li Yi began to continue the treasure hunt, since there is a piece of ancient jade of the Hongshan culture, it is likely that there will be a second and third pieces!

Sure enough, soon he found another jade artifact of the Hongshan culture in a box, this jade is about 30 centimeters long, about 10 centimeters wide, and almost 3 centimeters thick.

This jade axe is made of Xiuyan green jade, which is dark green in color. The whole body of the utensils is five-colored, and the body is full of spots. There are five colors: reddish-brown, tooth-yellow white, yellowish-brown, blue-green, gray-black, and incomparably precious.

"It's another national treasure, it's really ......"

Li Yi couldn't put it down, put the jade axe back into the box, and asked, "How do you sell these two pieces?" ”

"That jade dragon costs 50 million, and as for this five-color jade plate, it is more expensive, 80 million."

Li Yi nodded, this price is not expensive, it is really not expensive. In fact, only this type of national treasure can be so cheap, and he will not be surprised if he changes it and adds a zero to the end.

"Brother Yi, the investigation over there has been a result, Zheng Shihang should not exist." At this moment, Gu Feng leaned into his ear and whispered.

"Oh? Have you found out who did it? ”

"Not yet. We called according to the phone number you provided, and there was indeed someone answering, but the person was in China, and his name was not Zheng Shihang, and he did not have a friend named Zheng Shihang. In addition, the address on the tender form has also been verified, and the place is indeed a hotel, but no person named Zheng Shihang has checked in these days. ”

Li Yi pondered for a moment and said: "Then let's do this for the investigation here, and then comprehensively investigate Xia Haitao, I want to know what he has done recently, and he has been in contact with those people...... By the way, I told the people in the country to contact Wang Lao, I think that if this matter was really done by Xia Haitao, he should leak a little bit in front of Wang Lao. ”

Gu Feng nodded, this point didn't need Li Yi to explain, he had already ordered it.

"Have you gotten the seller information of that chicken bowl cup?"

"I got it, we tried to contact it, and the other party should still have illusions about those two offers, so I refused without hesitation."

"Hehe, it seems that my previous transactions gave him confidence, but it doesn't matter, we will wait for him for a few more days, and when he despairs, he will naturally find a reasonable price."

Li Yi's offer for this chicken bowl cup is not low, 240 million yen, which is almost equivalent to 15 million soft sister coins. However, this is not low, and it is only relative to the Yongzheng imitation, if it is the Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup, the 4 billion is the regular price.

"Is this price quoted by chance, or is that guy trying to remind you of something through this price?" Although Li Yi was full of confidence, he still had some hidden worries in his heart, because he always vaguely felt that this matter did not seem to be so simple.

However, there is not much he can do at the moment, and he can only wait for things to become clearer.

"The quality of these ancient jades collected by Mr. Hashimoto is very good, and it is really enviable."

Li Yi was holding a Hetian jade carving beast from the Shang Dynasty in his hand, and while playing with it, he sighed, although he had only seen half of it, he had an urge to collect all these ancient jades.

"Hehe, thank you Mr. Li for the compliment, in fact, the main thing is that I like these things more, so I haven't sold them for so many years, but recently the child's career has encountered some setbacks, no way, I want to help him."

Li Yi nodded understandingly, he is not a collector, he does not have the kind of love for cultural relics, even if he is an antique dealer, he must not be an excellent antique dealer.

But for a collector, it can be a difficult decision to sell their beloved collection for money, for whatever reason.

However, understanding is understanding, he will not be soft when it is time to start, after all, these things are all handed down by the ancestors of China, what can be regarded as what can be regarded as leaving them in the hands of you little Japan?
