Chapter 31: The Loser

After returning to the acquisition station, Feng Guo also pretended to open the painting and pondered it carefully.

However, the ancient painting pays attention to an artistic conception, the mountain in this painting is not like the landscape, not like the water, the person still has a big head of the painting, and it is not as good as the New Year's painting posted at home, so he suddenly lost interest, and it is still with those old books.

Of course, Feng Guo did not completely lose confidence in it, and when he received Ye Tian's father and son in the morning, the antique he said he received was this painting.

After listening to the words of the seal, Ye Tian didn't feel anything, because he didn't have a complete understanding of antiques, but Ye Dongping was dumbfounded, and muttered to himself in disbelief: "This ...... Is that okay too? ”

After deciding to do the antique business, Ye Dongping wrote letters to some classmates who were still in contact with him, and did a survey on the antique markets in various places.

Compared with the early 80s, that is, four or five years ago, the domestic art market has begun to recover slowly, and some forward-looking people are buying various types of antiques.

For example, there is a bed miller surnamed Ma in Beijing, who started tinkering with antiques a few years ago, and no one cares about these things at all, such as the best Huanghuali mahogany tables and chairs, all of which are five yuan a piece in the thrift market, and they also come with home delivery.

Although Mr. Ma doesn't have a lot of money, but in a few years, he has really made a lot of good things, and the reason why Ye Dongping knows about this is because one of his classmates lives opposite Mr. Ma.

No matter what kind of commodity it is, as long as there is market demand, the price will naturally rise, and the same is true for antiques, which were worthless in the past few years, and now they are worth a hundred times.

And with the gradual stabilization of people's lives, coupled with the law of "prosperous antiques and troubled gold", the antique market has slowly recovered in recent years, and it is almost impossible to imagine that it is so leaky everywhere as in previous years.

"Uncle Ye, how much do you say this antique is worth?"

Seeing Ye Dongping silent, he was a little embarrassed, he only knew that his uncle said that antiques were valuable, but what kind of value method was it, he was blinded.

"I can't say how much it's worth, but ...... The minimum should be in this book, right? After hearing the words of the seal, Ye Dongping stretched out three fingers.

According to the news inquired by the classmate in Beijing, the ancient paintings of the Ming Dynasty, which are famous and famous, can be sold for at least 3,000 yuan in the market, which means that the things bought for this dollar have increased by as much as 3,000 times.

"Thirty? Hey, isn't that thirty times the money? It's worth ......" Feng Qian's face showed joy, this antique business is really profitable, and if you buy it for one dollar, you can sell it for thirty.

Ye Dongping pursed his lips when he heard this, and said, "That's all you have to say, thirty yuan?" It's not even a fraction, let me tell you, if this painting is sold in Beijing, he won't be shown it for thirty yuan......"

After Ye Dongping told Feng Qing what he knew, the kid's wine immediately woke up, and he looked at the somewhat worn scroll in front of him in disbelief, and stammered: "Ye ...... Uncle Ye, you ...... You didn't lie to me, did you? You said...... Is that true? This...... This broken painting is worth 3,000 yuan? ”

"How fresh? I'm making up nonsense to tease you? ”

Looking at Feng Qian's stunned appearance, Ye Dongping laughed, although this kid doesn't know a few big characters, but his luck is really good, this shot is a big leak.

Suddenly, Feng Shi slapped his head, screamed and ran out.

"Fengzi, why are you going?" Ye Dongping grabbed him.

"No, Uncle Ye, let it go, I'll go to the old lady again, maybe she has something good at home......"

"Okay, okay, how can there be such a good thing, you will be content if you take advantage of it once......"

Ye Dongping smiled and grabbed the seal, and said, "I'll tell you another story that happened in Beijing, that person is even more unlucky than this old lady......"

"Is there anyone more unlucky than throwing away three thousand dollars for nothing?" After hearing Ye Dongping's words, Feng Zheng's attention was suddenly attracted.

"Of course, that man threw millions for nothing......

Ye Dongping also heard from his classmates about this, there is a family surnamed Bai in Beijing, whose ancestors are big collectors in Sijiu City, specializing in collecting porcelain, and his reputation in the industry is very loud.

In the early 80s, there was a big director named Li Hanxiang in Hong Kong, when he was filming a movie in Beijing, he found an acquaintance to visit the family surnamed Bai, and asked to buy some porcelain.

At that time, the owner of the family surnamed Bai said that good things had been smashed in previous years, and now there is only a little foundation left, and there are dozens of pieces, according to the owner's meaning, he only wants to sell one or two pieces, and the rest is a thought.

However, the man had a son, who admired the great director Li Hanxiang very much at that time, so he did everything possible to encourage him to sell his things, and the owner surnamed Bai finally couldn't stand his son's persuasion and sold more than 40 pieces of ancient porcelain to Li Hanxiang.

After getting the money, his son asked Lao Tzu to buy a refrigerator, a color TV, and a tape recorder.

Who knew that in 1983, Li Hanxiang sent a postcard and a magazine to the Bai family boy from Hong Kong, and the kid flipped through the magazine and found that there was an article introducing Li Hanxiang's collection of antiques, entitled "The "Little Forbidden City" of the great director Li Hanxiang.

The Bai family boy looked at the pictures, there were more than 20 pieces of collection that were their things, and the price marked below was as little as hundreds of thousands or as many as millions of Hong Kong dollars.

However, the Bai family boy was ashamed and brave, and later went to learn porcelain identification knowledge, and also made a lot of reputation in the industry, of course, these are all later words.

This matter is basically known to everyone in Beijing's antique circle, and since this incident, people have paid more attention to the antique art market, but similar things rarely happen.

The news of the small county town is relatively closed, this old lady sold an ancient painting for a dollar, it is still possible to happen in this era, but this kind of thing is not available after all, and it may not be possible to find it if you go to find it.

"Uncle Ye, what do you mean, maybe you can still encounter this thing?" After listening to Ye Dongping's words, the small eyes of Feng Guo lit up, and he couldn't wait to pull the cart now and continue to collect the rags.

"Fengzi, this ...... This money, alas, if you happen to this again, give someone more money......"

Ye Dongping is a highly educated person, and he always has a little pimple in his heart when he thinks about taking advantage of others like this, but in business, he is not good at accusing him of sealing anything.
