Through this Tanaka's narration, Jin Muchen finally understood why he hated it so much, his grandfather, and his father, but this foreign devil does not attach as much importance to blood relationship subordination as we Chinese, but all parents of parents are called grandparents.

In this way, his Japanese grandfather, according to our Chinese parlance, should be regarded as his grandfather.

Not surprisingly, this guy's father is a black man, and he also has the problem of black people abandoning each other, not long after bringing his mother to the United States, he left their mother and son behind and went happily by himself.

That's why this guy prefers to use his mother's last name, Tanaka, rather than his black daddy's last name, Jordan!

Having said that, this guy is also quite sad, he has been a grandmother since he was a child, and his uncle doesn't like that.

His father abandoned his family, which was the irresponsible nature of black people, and as for his grandfather's dislike of him, it was even simpler, because of the color of his skin.

It turns out that this guy's grandfather, Tanaka, has been living in Tokyo, Japan, and has always been in the antique business, but he has never had children, and he didn't get a daughter until he was forty years old, and he gave birth to a daughter, so he naturally liked it since he was a child.

Unexpectedly, when his daughter was eighteen years old, she was very rebellious, didn't like to read, and often wandered around, and finally somehow, she actually caught up with the father in the field, who happened to be a U.S. military stationed in Japan at that time.

You must know that admiring foreign countries is not only the fault of the Chinese, but also the Japanese, in the sixties and seventies of the last century. Japan's admiration for foreigners has even reached its peak for a while.

At that time, there were also many foreign women in Japan. Of course, not all foreign daughters. will be accepted by the family.

If you marry in a place like New Zealand or Australia, you will definitely be looked down upon by your family, because that kind of marriage, in the eyes of the Japanese, is definitely a phoenix man who married a peacock girl from his own family.

After all, the economy of New Zealand and Australia at that time. The development is not as good as that of Japan.

But if they marry to the United States, or those developed countries in Western Europe, then their family will definitely brag about it.

Of course, all foreign married girls are welcomed by their families, and there is a condition, that is, you must marry a white man, if you marry a black man, it will be a great disaster, and you will be spurned by your family.

Even if you marry a black man from the United States, this is not the same as in our country. After all, there are still people in our country who have deliberately preached that their father is a black man in the United States......

And Tanaka's mother is very unlucky. Although she married an American, she was a black American, which made her father angry that one Buddha went out of the body, and the second Buddha ascended to heaven, and finally broke off the father-daughter relationship with her for a while.

At that time, Tanaka's mother was enlarged by Tanaka's father, so she had no choice but to follow Tanaka's father to the United States.

But soon Tanaka's father got tired of this marriage, and finally abandoned his wife and went to live happily alone.

Tanaka's mother raised him alone, and because of the hardships of life, he finally had to restore contact with his father, and the old man Tanaka, maybe he was soft-hearted and felt sorry for his daughter, but he still recognized this daughter, but he has always been not very interested in Tanaka's mixed-race grandson.

After living in Japan for a while, Tanaka finally couldn't stand the discrimination of his grandfather, and returned to the United States to earn a living by himself as an adult.

A few years ago, his mother died in a car accident, and he became alone, and his grandfather had no intention of looking him back.

At the end of last year, his cheap grandfather died of a heart attack at home alone, and after a few days of rotting at home, he was discovered, so someone contacted him to go back to Japan to handle the funeral, so he successfully inherited some inheritance from the cheap grandfather, including the inkstones he sells today.

Hearing this, Jin Muchen was basically on the right track, and it seems that this black Tanaka should not be lying.

Because when China exported Duan Yan as a high-end handicraft, the main export object was Japan, and the Japanese, especially the Japanese who knew how to play culture, were crazy to like and pursue these Duan Yan.

Since the fifties and sixties of the last century, this inkstone has always been one of the favorite cultural toys of the Japanese, at that time, the end of the inkstone exported by eastern Guangdong Province, the main export place is Japan, and then after the change, this inkstone is also one of the important export high-grade handicrafts at the Canton Fair.

In the era after the change, the Japanese people's enthusiasm for Duan Yan was even more crazy, and the largest consumer customer of Duan Yan at the Canton Fair was the Japanese.

It is said that every year at the Canton Fair, Japanese antique dealers will organize groups to participate in the exhibition, and the main purpose is to buy inkstones in groups.

At that time, the price of Duan Yan was basically more than 1,000 yuan, and the workmanship quality was only two or three thousand yuan, and once the Japanese appeared in front of the booth of Duan Yan, it would definitely be as ferocious as the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves.

This situation was not alleviated until the people of the Guangdong Provincial Department of Light Industry learned about the popularity of this inkstone in the international Asian cultural circles, and listed this inkstone as a national cultural relic and began to protect it, because since then, at the Canton Fair, you can no longer see the inkstone.

Jin Muchen estimated that these inkstones should be the grandfather of this field, who went to China to sweep the goods at that time, and the loot he got in his hands was collected by himself because he liked it, until now it fell into the hands of his unscrupulous descendants.

In the past two years, the return boom of domestic inkstones has gradually risen, and the sources of return of those inkstones have basically come to Japan.

Listening to this Tanaka's narration, Jin Muchen probably understood his life history and the origin of these inkstones in his hand, and this guy shouldn't have lied much.

It stands to reason that Americans don't like to tell others about their own private affairs, after all, it involves their own privacy, but at that time it was for those who were highly educated.

A big mouth like this Tanaka is normal among middle and low-level people, especially in front of a potential big buyer like Jin Muchen, there will always be such a big mouth and a person who likes to talk endlessly about the origin of his treasure.

First, he wanted to prove that his treasures were coming in a legitimate way, and secondly, it was estimated that Tanaka was also holding back his anger against his grandfather for too long, so telling Jin Muchen, a potential buyer, about this at this time was also a way to vent.

But in any case, now that the origin of these inkstones has been determined, it is time to talk about the price.

"Tanaka, how do you sell these inkstones?"

"Well, this? I have also done to understand these things, I heard that many Chinese now like to go to Japan to buy these things, the price, let's follow the average price in Japan, just two thousand dollars per piece! ”

Jin Muchen's eyes were about to pop out, this guy is really a straw bag, this inkstone is actually sold at this price?

Come on, don't say anything, take it now!

Without saying a word, Jin Muchen pointed out 26,000 US dollars and handed it over to this Tanaka, who patted the money in his hand with a smile: "If you pay this money, I know that you are Chinese, hee, I like to trade with Chinese the most." ”

Jin Muchen couldn't help but have black lines on his head, there is no way that Chinese in the United States like to use cash, but it is famous.

It's no wonder that this Tanaka likes it, after all, more than 20,000 yuan in cash has helped him save a lot of taxes.

But now it's more cost-effective to be yourself!

The asking price of this Tanaka is based on the average price of the early Japanese antique dealers who collected Duan Yan when they bought it back to the Chinese, but he did not understand the current madness in China for such high-end cultural toys in China, and the helplessness of the Japanese when they sold such Duan inkstone.

The Japanese are not stupid, but why do they know that the price of duanyan in China is so crazy, but when they sell these handicrafts to the Chinese, they will ask for such a low price?

This is not in line with the cunning business style of the Japanese, but it is really helpless for them to make such an offer.

Because the reason why the Japanese bought Duan inkstone so frantically back then was because from the fifties and sixties of the last century to the end of the last century, the literary style in Japan was still quite strong, especially the art of calligraphy, which was very popular in Japan at that time.

But in the past 20 years, because of the invasion of American culture, the new generation of Japanese young people has long disliked the one that the older generation likes, and they prefer American blockbusters, FB, and Twitter.

Nowadays, Japanese young people use more computers, mobile phones, to communicate and write, usually like to stay at home when they have nothing to do, watch two-dimensional anime, or adult action movies, and their hands are cramping, who has the time to learn calligraphy?

It is precisely because there are fewer and fewer young people who like ancient style and calligraphy that this has led to the fact that the market for cultural toys such as Duan Yan in Japan is getting smaller and smaller.

Some even couldn't sell it in the store for more than ten years, and finally when Chinese came to buy it, many Japanese shopkeepers had to sell it in tears and directly began to sell these inkstones at a price of 10,000 to 20,000 yuan.

And such a price, with the increase in the number of Chinese who go to Japan to buy and return to the end inkstone, has become a basic pricing standard.

And today, Tanaka has adopted such a pricing standard, but he knows that if such a quality inkstone is taken to China, it must at least start at 200,000, and if it is obtained in eastern Guangdong, the starting price must start from 400,000?

So this time, Jin Muchen is really grateful to the eight generations of Japanese ancestors for picking up a big bargain in the United States. (To be continued......)
