Chapter 758: Asking for a Lot
"It's almost, it's time to go out, I'm waiting for a while, I guess they may be impatient to wait, we're going to do it next, but there's still something to sell!"
Jin Muchen said to Junichi Watanabe with a smile, and when Watanabe looked at his watch, it was indeed about the same.
He had been in this office for almost half an hour, and when he looked outside, the Mitsui brothers and Yoshihiko Noda, as well as Kobayashi Kyosuke, who had joined the discussion group at the end, were discussing there at this time, although they didn't mean to be impatient, they couldn't drag it out like this.
After all, they have a bombshell waiting to be dropped.
Watanabe got up and walked out of the office with a smile on his face, but when he walked out of the office, the smile on his face was gone, replaced by a struggling and distorted look on his face.
He came to the Mitsui brothers angrily, and the Mitsui brothers stood up at this time, looking at his demeanor, they knew that the discussion between him and his friend did not seem to be going well.
But it doesn't matter, anyway, these things, he Mitsui has to sell them today, and he has to sell them if he doesn't sell them, and his friend finally agrees or not, and the result doesn't matter.
"How? Watanabe-kun, it seems that you and your friend are not communicating well. ”
Mitsui asked with a smile, and at the same time, his heart was also turning fast, pondering, wait a while, how to bargain with this Watanabe.
Watanabe's face changed at this time, and soon the depressed look on his face was all gone: "Ah...... Ha ha...... Let's not talk about that, okay, Mr. Mitsui, since you're here today. And saw these things. That's according to the Chinese. These things are also related to you. Since you like these things and are willing to buy them, then you can make a price! ”
Sure enough, it was a cunning bastard, Mitsui Guihe secretly cursed in his heart, this guy actually kicked the ball over again like the previous time.
Forget it, then make a price for him, and test it to see where the bottom line in his heart is.
"Hmm. Watanabe-kun, you're right, since we ran into these things today, it's with us. Today you can endure the pain of love, of course we can't let you suffer. Well, I've got all these things, $50 million, what do you think? ”
50 million dollars to buy such a pile of broken copper and iron. This price is really not low, after all, these things are fakes. Add all the cost price to everything, and it is estimated that it would be good to have 500,000 yuan.
But after all, now Mitsui and they are buying these things as genuine, and if they buy this thing as a real thing, then the price of 50 million US dollars is actually not high.
First of all, let's talk about the most inconspicuous-looking Han bricks and tiles, these things, the appearance is not as glamorous as other antiques, just a pile of gray bricks and tiles.
But this is no ordinary brick tile, this is the brick tile used on two of the three most famous palace buildings of the Han Dynasty.
There are a few Han tiles that are used in the Changle Palace built by Liu Bang, the ancestor of the Han Dynasty, and a few Han tiles that are used in the Jianzhang Palace built by the most famous Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty in the later Han Dynasty, which has a different meaning.
After all, now Changle Palace and Jianzhang Palace, such magnificent buildings, have long been turned into a handful of loess, and the face of the broken wall has not been left, and now it is quite a remarkable discovery to be able to find such a few complete bricks and tiles dedicated to the palace at that time.
Such bricks and tiles are rare even in China.
You must know that in China's archaeological history, the most difficult thing to find is the things of the Han Dynasty, so when people who play collecting in China collect things from the Qin and Han dynasties, they will say such special words as Qin bricks and Han tiles.
This shows that on the one hand, it is not easy to get other precious cultural relics of those two dynasties, and on the other hand, it also shows that even the bricks and tiles of these two dynasties have considerable artistic and collection value.
What's more, one of the ones they encounter today is from the period of Liu Bang, and the other is from the period of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty?
And the most precious, there is also the Han brick dedicated to Emperor Guangwu that is well preserved and beautifully worked, Nima, that emperor is a famous emperor in history, and he himself is a legend of history.
If he can get a Han brick that he used back then, if he takes it out to show off, how much B can he improve?
So even if it is just a few gray bricks and tiles, if this is brought to auction, I am afraid that the auction price will not be less than 10 million US dollars.
After all, there are too few such things in the world now, too little.
You must know that not to mention such bricks and tiles now, even if you get a brick dedicated to the Great Wall in the Qin and Han dynasties and make a brick carving, the price of this thing will not be less than several million.
In the early years, when the reform and opening up was just underway, people's awareness of the protection of cultural relics was not very strong, and at that time, countless Japanese, Europeans and Americans came to China to treasure treasures.
And there is such a group of guys who only have money and no ancestors in their eyes, and they have done this.
Just guard at the foot of the Great Wall, pry the bricks of the Great Wall, and then pick out some of the better ones, according to the requirements of those foreigners, handmade brick carvings for them.
When those brick carvings were sold to those foreigners, they were only a few hundred yuan a piece, but those foreigners took these brick carvings abroad, so they could be auctioned for hundreds of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands of dollars.
You must know that those bricks are just the bricks of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty......
And these undamaged carved Han bricks and tiles, there is no need to process them the day after tomorrow, and their price, after a few decades, is naturally higher than the price of the city bricks of the Ming Great Wall.
Plus those bronzes, not to mention, all of them are exquisitely made, all kinds of copper lamps and mirrors, such things, put together, all kinds of things, how can they be sold for 10 million dollars?
And those horseshoe gold and lintoe gold, not to mention, have to fetch millions of dollars no matter what.
And the most important thing is those samurai terracotta figurines and the actual terracotta figurines, this thing is definitely a discovery that created history, after all, people have not found it before, and there have been colored terracotta figurines in the Han Dynasty.
And this thing is made of the terracotta warriors and horses inherited from the Qin Dynasty, and the price of the terracotta warriors and horses is still immeasurable.
After all, that thing is too sensitive, too precious, the tomb of the first emperor in Chinese history, and this emperor is also the first great emperor to unify China and establish the foundation of modern China.
What's more, there is no such thing in the world except China, which shows the scarcity of that thing.
The terracotta warriors and horses can't be made, and the warrior servants of the Han Dynasty don't seem to have anyone abroad now, so the value of this thing is really hard to estimate.
The Mitsui brothers gave a price of 50 million US dollars, which is really not low, but if you want to say high, it is really not high.
When Watanabe heard such an offer, he immediately felt like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail, and with a pop, he jumped three feet high, and his head shook like a rattle.
"50 million dollars, no, absolutely no......"
You must know that Jim Sang's reserve price for himself is 100 million US dollars, and millions of US dollars are also cheats anyway, and tens of millions of US dollars are also cheats, so why not cheat more?
What's more, the part that exceeds $100 million, can I be half of Jimsan?
Therefore, the offer of 50 million US dollars, let alone Jin Muchen, even Junichi Watanabe will definitely not accept it.
As soon as Mitsui Takazu saw it, he knew that it was 50 million US dollars, and Junichi Watanabe would definitely agree, because his reaction was too fierce at this time, but he was not angry, in fact, he had already expected that 50 million, these things would definitely not be able to be taken down.
Then the next thing is to see how Junichi Watanabe makes a move.
"Well, since you are not satisfied with this price, Mr. Watanabe, then you can make a price!"
"Okay, if you want me to say, if you want to pack these things, then 200 million dollars!"
"What? Why don't you go and grab ......"
As soon as Mitsui Takazu heard such an offer, his face immediately changed, and before he could speak, this time his younger brother Mitsui Mitsura was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and he was also like Watanabe Jun, jumping three feet high.
"Watanabe-kun, isn't your offer a sincere offer for doing business?"
Mitsui Guiwa looked at Junichi Watanabe with a calm face and said, this old guy really deserves to be a big man who has been in the top position for a long time, and his face is so pulled, Junichi Watanabe can immediately feel the majestic pressure of the superior person.
But for the sake of money, at this time, any pressure is bullshit.
"Huh! Mr. Mitsui, that's not what I said, you've seen all these things of mine. It's all genuine, right? ”
Mitsui nodded, and Watanabe continued to ask rhetorically.
"Have you ever seen these things on auction before? In addition to these bronzes, have there been any other antique-like transactions? ”
Takazu Mitsui continued to shake his head, and Watanabe continued.
What does this mean? This shows the preciousness of these things! Such a treasure, if it is really elsewhere, as long as it is unearthed, it will definitely be collected by those collectors for the first time, and it will not be easily taken out for display. Either it will be taken to the museum by the state and protected well. If you want to see this thing, you can only go to a museum, and it is not easy for a private person to collect it, not to mention how much time, energy, and money I spent to get these things, do you know? (To be continued.) )
