Chapter 498: The Treasure Appraisal Meeting Ends
Han Chong only understood this, it turned out that this old man was Zhu Xianzhen, this wooden carved board, which was also passed down by the family, but after experiencing that crazy era, although the things were there, their family's craftsmanship was not passed down, and the old man also left his hometown and came to Zheng Zhou with his family.
Qiu Bo has been a worker all his life, although his son is filial, but he has no ability, he just earns a dead salary, and the family does not worry about drinking old snacks, but he has not saved much money.
This suddenly said that he was going to demolish Qian, if he was going to move to the city to live, his son and daughter-in-law went to work a lot farther, and it was inconvenient for his grandson to go to school, so Qiu Bo wanted to buy a house near where he originally lived.
But the compensation given by the government, if you want to buy a house in the original area, there is still a difference of more than 200,000 yuan, which makes the old man worried, thinking about it, it seems that only the stereotype left by the ancestors is worth a little money.
So after rummaging through the cabinets to find out this stereotype, Qiu Bo entrusted Wang Xiao to help him, and some people went to the house to see it in the past two months, but because the old man's asking price was a bit high, he couldn't negotiate.
Wang Xiao also saw Han Chong's generosity, so he called Qiu Bo to see if Han Chong was interested.
"Old man, let me take a look at things first......
Han Chong was afraid that he would buy it with his mouth, and the other party would sit on the ground and raise the price, and said.
"Look, you can look at ......"
Although Han Chong was young, the old man was told by Wang Xiao to know that this was a nationally renowned antique expert, so he was a little restrained.
Han Chong didn't speak again, picked up the magnifying glass, and carefully examined the woodblock on the table.
This woodblock engraving first originated in the Tang Dynasty, but became popular from the Song Dynasty, because these are folk handicrafts. The wood used to make woodblocks is also made from everywhere, and the materials are general, like the woodblocks of the Tang and Song dynasties, which may have long been decayed and difficult to preserve.
The general woodblock is carved from a wide range of boxwood, but this woodblock. From Han Chong's point of view, it is carved out of peach wood unique to Shandong Feicheng, and after hundreds of years of woodblocking, it is still dense and delicate, exuding a faint fragrance.
After observing for a long time, Han Chong raised his head and asked the old man, "Uncle Qiu, how much do you want to sell this woodblock?" ”
"This ...... This. I want 300,000 ......"
Qiu Bo hesitated for a moment, and quoted a price, but it made many people in the room shake their heads, they are all from Nanhe, and they are no strangers to Zhu Xianzhen's woodblocks, woodblocks like this, generally speaking, 100,000 yuan can be collected.
"This old man. 300,000 is a bit expensive......"
"Yes, there are few woodblocks now. But to Zhu Xianzhen can still receive ......"
In the eyes of these experts in the room, Qiu Bo was a bit of a lion, judging from the price given by Han Chong when he identified the object before, he definitely knew that the asking price was high.
"Three hundred thousand?"
Han Chong also frowned slightly, this price was a little higher than he expected.
"It's 300,000, Mr. Han. This thing was handed down from the family, and now if I sell it, I am already sorry for my ancestors, and if it is less than 300,000, I will not sell it. At most, I moved to live in the city......"
Qiu Bo has a lot of feelings for this woodblock, he often saw it when he was a child, and later fled to Zhengzhou with his family, and he didn't bring anything with him at that time, so he took this woodblock with him.
"Okay, Uncle Qiu, since you also have your unspeakable secrets, then according to what you said, 300,000, Manager Wang, write an agreement, Xu Guang, take 300,000 out......"
After thinking about it for a while, Han Chong finally decided to buy it, this woodblock is obviously specially carved from the wood, and it has been preserved from the middle of the Qing Dynasty to the present, without a trace of cracks and insects, which is extremely rare.
"Brother Han, this thing isn't worth 300,000, right?"
Xu Guang took out a full thirty stacks of rmB from his backpack and placed them on the table.
The question raised by Xu Guang is exactly what the collectors in the room want to ask, spending 300,000 yuan to buy something that is only worth 100,000 yuan, no matter how you look at it, this business is a loss.
Han Chong smiled when he heard this, and said: "Xu Guang, although this woodblock can't reach the Ming Dynasty, it should be around the time of Kangxi, and it can be regarded as precious.
Second, this woodblock is carved out of peach wood, and everyone knows that peach wood wards off evil spirits, and the peach wood of the mountain is more of a god to ward off evil spirits and suppress disasters, just with this, you can add another 50,000 yuan.
Third, look at the condition, this woodblock is in good condition, there is no moth-eaten and rotten place, and the carving is exquisite, which can add another 50,000 yuan......"
Everyone in the room listened interestingly, and one of them shouted loudly: "Boss Han, what about 50,000?" ”
Hearing this, Han Chong arched his hand towards the four circles of the room, and said with a smile: "Bosses, this woodblock is the ancestral heirloom of Uncle Qiu's family, although I am not a gentleman, but it can be regarded as a good thing, and it is reasonable to add another 50,000, right?" ”
"Okay, Mr. Han said it well!"
"Teacher Han is benevolent!"
"Yes, there is affection and righteousness, only such a person can be an expert......"
"I didn't say it, Mr. Han, if I have anything in the future, I will go to Jiangcheng to find you......"
Han Chong's words not only made the people in the room applaud loudly, but even those who were waiting for the appraisal outside also gave a thumbs up.
"Teacher Han, thank you, thank you so much, I don't know what to say when you're so ......"
Qiu Bo, who was in his sixties, couldn't help but take out a tissue and wipe away his tears after hearing Han Chong's words.
In these years, the most difficult thing to say is nothing more than borrowing money, maybe except for the direct relationship between father and son, even relatives are not good to open their mouths, because borrowing... The things that are turned against each other in the loan relationship can be heard all the time.
In order to buy this house, Qiu Bo licked his old face and begged many people, without exception, all of them were closed. He didn't expect that the young man in front of him would agree to it in one bite.
In fact, Qiu Bo found a lot of people to look at this stereotype, and also understood the price of this woodblock, and when he bought this woodblock, Han Chong gave him at least 100,000 yuan of favor money.
"Huber. This woodblock engraving is the traditional craft of our country, like the woodblock left by the Ming and Qing dynasties, the price will only get higher and higher, and it may be more than 300,000 in a few years, don't regret it when the time comes......"
Han Chong laughed, what he meant by this was to comfort the old man, and secondly, Han Chong was also telling the truth, like in the nineties of the last century, lacquerware could be bought for three or five hundred yuan in Shanxi. This will not be able to buy thirty or fifty thousand, and as time goes by, these things have a huge room for appreciation.
After being polite to Uncle Qiu, Han Chong turned his head, looked at Wang Xiao, and said, "Manager Wang, arrange for a few people to send Uncle Qiu home or to the bank, so much money can be burned......
This antique market. has always been a mixture of fish and dragons, and a few little pips can kill for tens of thousands of dollars. If Qiu Bo took the 300,000 yuan by himself, maybe he would be targeted by someone when he walked out of the antique city, and then Han Chong would be a disaster for the old man.
"Yes, yes, it's still Mr. Han's thoughtfulness. I asked my colleague to take Uncle to the bank and save the money to settle down......"
Wang Xiao nodded again and again, and then arranged two security guards to accompany Qiu Bo to the bank to deposit the money, which is not safe at home.
The time to come. Han Chong appraised forty or fifty antiques, and his appraisal speed was very fast, and he pointed out whether it was true or false, and the quotation of scriptures and classics was convincing.
There are also seven or eight good things in it, but those few people don't want to sell it, and Han Chong is not reluctant, but when he finally ended today's treasure appreciation activity, he spent 480,000 yuan rmB and received a flower and bird work by Huang Binhong.
Those who know the history of modern Chinese painting know that Huang Binhong is an indispensable master of Chinese painting in modern China.
In the history of modern Chinese painting, it is known as "Southern Huang and Northern Qi", "Northern Qi" refers to Qi Baishi, a great master of flower and bird painting who lives in Beijing, and "Southern Huang" refers to Huang Binhong, a landscape painting master of An Hui.
Huang Binhong became famous later than Qi Baishi, and he is a late bloomer, and the price of his works is not high at the beginning, but it has risen year by year, and in recent years, it has been more than the price of Qi Baishi's paintings.
Compared with the "Mountain Residence" that Han Chong bought first, the price of Huang Binhong's work is much hotter, and the price gap between the two is a bit like the appearance fee of the emperor superstar and newcomer in the film and television industry, which is not a grade, which makes Han Chong feel a little aggrieved for Xiao Junxian.
It's just a pity that the work of Huang Binhong that Han Chong received is his side painting of flowers and birds, and the size is not very large, of course, if it is a landscape painting, let alone 450,000, I'm afraid 4.5 million, Han Chong may not be able to take it.
However, Han Chong is still very satisfied with today's trip to the antique city, the price of cabbage to get two pieces of Yin Shang Guyun, not to mention the two works of modern calligraphers and painters, and the stereotype of early Qing Dynasty New Year's paintings, these things that circulate among the people are difficult to collect, and they can be regarded as adding some collections to their own museums.
"Manager Wang, a few seniors, when the boy's museum opens, if you have time, you must come to enjoy your face......"
The people who appreciated the treasures outside had already dispersed, Han Chong had two paintings under his armpits, and Xu Guang was holding the woodblock of the New Year's paintings, and he was ready to say goodbye to the people in the antique city.
Before, Han Chong, Lao Liu, Manager Wang and others exchanged business cards, and he also advertised his own museum that had not opened.
Although he does not have Mr. Ma's connections, Han Chong believes that with his ability to appreciate treasures, he can still gather some collectors and often go to museums to exchange collections and collection knowledge.
"Teacher Han, don't worry, I'll arrive on time at that time, I've worked hard for you all day, I originally said that I would invite you to dinner again in the evening, since you don't have time, forget it, but you have to take this ......"
Manager Wang and others kept sending Han Chong to the gate of the antique city, and when he stopped a taxi, Wang Xiao stuffed a plastic bag into Han Chong's hand.
Han Chong pinched it with his hand, and knew that there were at least thirty or forty thousand yuan in it, and hurriedly said: "Manager Wang, forget this, everyone is friends, don't be like this......"
Han Chong is not a polite remark, he has gained a good harvest today, and he has met so many friends in Zheng Zhou's antique world, he really doesn't want this money, and now he takes three or five yuan, and he really can't be invited to appear.
"Teacher Han, you must take this, otherwise if this matter spreads, others will say that we don't understand the rules......"
Being able to know Han Chong is definitely a thing worth celebrating for Wang Xiao, spending a little money to maintain a relationship, and if there is something in the future, you can also open your mouth to Han Chong, which is called burning more incense and worshipping the Buddha when you use it!
You know, in order to improve the popularity and status in the hearts of collectors, the antique city will often invite some well-known experts to appreciate the treasures for free on the spot, of course, the expert's fee is paid by the organizer, and the expert did not issue an appraisal certificate, the money is in their own pockets.
However, now it is not only the antique market that needs to be cracked down, but also the experts who identify antiques, which are also mixed.
Some people don't know where to fool around with a certificate, so they take the name of an expert, and deceive everywhere, Wang Xiao has also suffered this kind of hardship, so it is really nothing to get to know a nationally renowned treasure expert like Han Chong, spending thirty or fifty thousand.
"Hey, I said, don't you give it to me, why are you letting it go, can't you go?"
It doesn't matter if Han Chong and Manager Wang are pushing there, this brother is impatient, isn't this delaying the buddy to make money?
"Yes, Manager Wang, then I will be disrespectful, on the eighth of next month, I will be waiting for you in Xijing......"
Han Chong saw that there was no way to let go on the side of the road, and after thanking Wang Xiao, he and Xu Guang got into the taxi.
"You two just bought something?"
After asking Han Chong where he was going, he glanced at the objects they were holding in their hands from the reversing mirror, and said with disdain: "What good things can be sold in this antique city?" It's all fake, how much did the two of you spend? Now play collecting, then you have to go to the mai line to buy good things......"
"Well, it didn't cost a few dollars, only three or five hundred yuan, and the loss was a loss......"
Hey, this is really a national collection, Han Chong couldn't help but be amused by the words of the brother here, but he didn't dare to say how much money this thing bought, otherwise this guy would definitely be surprised to create a man-made car accident.
……
"Xu Guang, let's go, go eat something, and rest early today......"
After returning to the hotel, Han Chong put the things in the room and greeted Xu Guang, today he has identified hundreds of antiques in a day, and Han Chong is also feeling a little tired.
Xu Guang shook his head and said, "Brother Han, go ahead, go back and give me a bag, I'll look at things here......" (To be continued.) )
