Chapter 31 Selling Jade
Even Yan Wenli, who was old and dignified, was dumbfounded when he saw this jade like a small mountain. Among these seventeen pieces of jade, in terms of jade materials, three of them are the best Hetian white seeds with hooks with different carving shapes. The eight mutton fat white jade bracelets are all as white as phospholipids, without the slightest flaw, and the temperament is refined. The other two bracelets are glass glass bracelets with strong green, which is now the so-called old pit full of imperial green jade! The last one is a large sample of a jade carving containing nine colors of Jinsha Cai Yu Shou Xian Weng holding a peach, and the carving seat is also made of precious rosewood.
"Well, these objects are still eye-catching, right?" Rong Yuanhang observed everyone's expressions, and suddenly felt very interesting, even Yan Xiaodan, who was making tea on the side, was attracted by these jades, thinking that they must be worth a lot of money, and couldn't help but feel a little proud.
"Xiao Rong, forgive me for asking a question that shouldn't be asked," Yan Wenli quickly woke up from the shock, and he asked, "Is there no problem with the origin of these goods?" ”
Rong Yuanhang was stunned for a moment, and immediately argued: "Look at what you said, of course there is no problem with the origin of these jades, as for ...... Where did it come from, I can't say it, anyway, I guarantee with my personality that it's absolutely fine, it's not something that digs up a grave, it's not stealing or robbing, it's not cheating,......"
"Okay, okay," Yan Wenli saw that the more he spoke, the more unspeakable he became, "I believe that these things of yours are legitimate, what I am asking is, such a high-quality ...... For example, this fairy carving seat, but it is an old object, there should be a history of tracking, can you tell me its provenance? ”
"This ......" Rong Yuanhang suddenly froze, did he want to tell him that he had bought it back from another world? It's impossible! I could only frown in embarrassment, and said a little embarrassed: "This...... I really can't say," I looked at Yan Xiaodan again, and saw that she was also looking at herself with questions, and hurriedly said: "No, no, I mean that this friend entrusted me with carte blanche agency, and I don't know its historical origin!" ”
"Where is that friend of yours ......?"
"He can't come forward!" Rong Yuanhang hurriedly said.
Yan Wenli was stunned, and then nodded with a relieved face: "Oh, understand, understand." "At this time, the brain has been automatically replenished, maybe it is some high-ranking official, it is inconvenient to come forward. He pointed to the pile of jade and asked, "Are you going to shoot them all?" ”
"Well, if the price is right, then sell." Rong Yuanhang said affirmatively.
"Oh......" Yan Wenli nodded, and said to the Zhong expert: "Old Zhong, then you can talk about it?" ”
Expert Zhong got into it at this time, and he was fascinated by so many boutiques. Hearing this, he raised his head, coughed dryly, and said, "If you are going to put it up for auction, then I will tell you my opinion and give you some advice." Let's talk about it one by one, cough cough, these three hooks, the size and shape are the same, the weight has to be weighed to know, needless to say, this material is the best Hetian seeds, it is estimated that each piece of the hook is about 60 grams, just such a material, one piece can sell more than 100,000! ”
“…… But looking at jade is not only to look at its material, this carving is also very important, and it also has the greatest impact on the object itself," Speaking of this, he raised his head and glanced at Yan Wenli, and said: "Brother Li, you see, these three carvers with hooks cannot be carved by non-master figures!" Take this slightly public boat drawing as the most, using the engraving technique, the rudder, penny, sail, tree, water pattern, and figure are lifelike, and the pattern carving is thinner than the hair......"
Yan Wenli and the boss surnamed Jia came over to take a closer look, and the three old men were piled together with their foreheads, and this meeting was very interesting. But said that Rong Yuanhang, people were appreciating his jade, but most of his attention was on Yan Xiaodan, the eyes were sloppy and frequently looked over, causing a lot of beautiful women to roll their eyes, her beauty that seemed to be disgusted made Rong Yuanhang's whole body numb, even if the beauty's angry expression was also a kind of Heng in his opinion.
"This carving is simply priceless, in my opinion, the reserve price of these three pieces with hooks should be around 8 million, and the starting price can be slightly higher......" Zhong expert continued to comment.
"Eight million!" When Rong Yuanhang heard this, he suddenly came to the spirit, and he couldn't even care about flirting with beautiful women. You know, just three small belt hooks are worth eight million yuan, and there are fourteen other things, which makes him excited.
"Let's talk about this bracelet again, tsk, I really can't imagine that there is such a clever jade carving master now!" Expert Zhong shook his head, the three pairs of bracelets are also the best fat sheep jade, but its carving and shaping are more individual. One of the identical bracelets was rolled in the shape of four morning glories, and the shape was so complex that it would take a year and a half to knead it by hand!
For these three pairs of six bracelets, the appraisal reserve price given by Zhong Expert is a total of 80 million yuan, and the starting price is 95 million yuan! As the saying goes, gold has a price, jade is priceless, and good items must also meet the right buyers. Bracelets with a starting price of 95 million may also be auctioned for a sky-high price of 200 million yuan, and of course, they may also be unauctioned.
Speaking of which, Rong Yuanhang can't be calm anymore, "The reserve price can reach 80 million!" Oh my God, I don't have to worry about money in my life! ”
"This pair of bracelets...... Alas, I wonder if I'm dazzled or have lost my judgment? How can there be so many excellent products all at once? ”
Zhong Jiazhuan was like waking up from a big dream, he picked up the emerald green bracelet, looked left and right, shook his head incessantly, and let out a sigh of admiration in his mouth. This pair of jadeite round bracelets has no carved patterns on them, but they are smooth and warm. The specifications are exactly the same, the inner diameter is 5.74 cm, the width is 1.41 cm, and the width is also 1.41 cm.
"This is a natural glass imperial green jade!" Expert Zhong said with certainty, he looked at Yan Wenli and the boss surnamed Jia again, and estimated the price of the bracelet: "Just one, the reserve price should be more than 40 million, if the two make up a pair and auction together, then the price has to be increased by two percent, 100 million yuan!" ”
Hearing this number, Rong Yuanhang's heart was hit hard, 'One hundred million! He wondered if it was a dream.
"As for this Jinsha colored jade statue...... Expert Zhong shook his head habitually: "Its value is fully reflected in the color and carving, this carving seems to be different from the previous jade style, not from the same person, but there is no doubt that it is the work of a top master!" Also, this is an old object, and its rosewood carved base is quite expensive, and if there is a tracking history, I think, it should be the highest price...... Well, it's hard to estimate! ”
"I don't really know its history, but it's absolutely fine!" Rong Yuanhang said.
"Little brother, how about you give me this longevity immortal?" At this time, the businessman surnamed Jia, who had been listening to it fascinated, suddenly spoke, "I really like this thing, can you make a price?" ”
Rong Yuanhang was stunned and asked himself to bid? I'm a complete layman, how do you set the price? looked at Yan Wenli, wanting to get some advice from him, but the people looked at him with a smile and said nothing. After thinking about it, he said: "You are a friend of Uncle Yan and my elder, I don't know how to do this jade, Uncle Jia, why don't you give me a price, I believe you won't lose me, right?" ”
Boss Jia couldn't help laughing, pointed at him with his finger, and said with a smile in the tone of an elder: "You, you, slippery!" …… Alas, so be it, I originally wanted to pick up the leaks, but since you recognize me as an elder, and besides, in front of two old friends, it's hard to start...... Hahaha......"
When everyone heard him say it funny, they burst into laughter. After a burst of laughter, Boss Jia said, "Thirty-eight million!" Take a good head, how about it, Xiaorong, do you think about it? ”
What else to consider? Even if the price he gives is low, in front of the beauties, he has to show generosity! Rong Yuanhang smiled: "Okay, you can say as much as you want." ”
"Refreshing!" The businessman surnamed Jia slapped his thigh: "Then you have to keep it for me, and I will transfer it to you tomorrow, and we will deliver the goods with one hand and pay the money with the other!" ”
"Money can be given slowly," Rong Yuanhang said: "If you like it, take it home now, I can trust you." ”
"Hahaha...... good boy!" The merchant surnamed Jia exclaimed, he shook his head and said: "It's better to wait for tomorrow, ask for stability, after all, it's tens of millions of things, if I just take it away, I'm afraid that your friend who doesn't come forward won't be able to sleep, hahaha......"
Then everyone chatted for a while, Yan Xiaodan held the superb jade jade bracelet in his hand, looked at it again and again, and seemed to like it very much. Seeing this, Rong Yuanhang asked, "Do you like it?" If you like it, take it and wear it, I'll give it to you! ”
"Huh?" Yan Xiaodan raised his head and was stunned, glanced at him, and somehow, his face was instantly covered with redness, and he hurriedly put down the bracelet: "What are you talking about!" ”
Tens of millions of bracelets are said to be given away, and anyone will have associations. The three old men couldn't help laughing, and the businessman surnamed Jia smiled: "I said little brother, you ordered a little early, right?" Hahaha......"
"Nasty! Uncle Jia also makes fun of others! Yan Xiaodan twisted his waist and turned his head, becoming more and more shy by laughter, and couldn't help but glance at Rong Yuanhang fiercely.
In the end, it was negotiated, except for the carved pedestal of Shouxian Weng holding a peach, sixteen pieces of jade were handed over to Yan Wenli's auction company to operate. It's not that Yan Wenli doesn't covet these superb jades, investing in jade is a low-risk and high-profit investment. Due to the over-exploitation of jade ore, the rapid consumption of resources, under the increasingly strong market demand, the future jade will only be more expensive, especially the best jade, the price difference will be higher and higher. Therefore, good jade pieces will definitely have huge value-added potential, but due to the company's limited working capital, Yan Wenli can only reluctantly give up this rare opportunity.
However, Rong Yuanhang was satisfied with the fact that he had entrusted the jade to the company to run the auction and earn a high commission of 10 percent. In particular, Rong Yuanhang behaved very generously, and handed over the sixteen pieces of jade to him for storage. As for the Shouxian Weng peach carving seat, he will also keep it on his behalf, and when the boss surnamed Jia transfers the money to Rong Yuanhang's account tomorrow, he will directly take the goods.
……
Rong Yuanhang returned to the rental villa, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night, always thinking about the sky-high price of jade, how should he spend the money when he got it? fantasizing about all kinds of good life in the future, until four or five o'clock in the morning, he fell asleep deeply......
At three o'clock in the morning, the mobile phone message prompt that Rong Yuanhang put on the bedside table rang several times, and then the phone rang.
"Hello?" Rong Yuanhang answered in a daze.
"Xiaorong, me, Uncle Jia!"
"Yo, it's Uncle Jia, hello hello!" Rong Yuanhang sat up immediately, this is a buyer of tens of millions of yuan!
"I've already called you for the money, I'll take the jade statue, hahaha, listen to your voice, it looks like you haven't woken up yet, you check the account yourself, I won't bother you, let's talk again when I'm free, hang up!"
The phone hung up. Rong Yuanhang was stunned...... "The money has already been called?" He hurriedly checked the information on his mobile phone, and sure enough, it ...... Three and eight are followed by a long series of 'zeros'!
As for the fraction of tens of thousands of yuan, it can also be regarded as zero. 38 million yuan, not a penny! Rong Yuanhang looked at his mobile phone blankly, his heart felt like he had knocked over the five-flavor bottle, he thought of the days when he used to hide in Tibet and hide debts, the scenes of being scolded like rats crossing the street, the days when a person secretly hid in a rental house and ate biscuits and instant noodles, and the days when he endured the pain and licked his wounds silently......
Before I knew it, tears blurred my eyes......
