"Huh?"

Hearing the mayor's question, Jin Muchen couldn't help but be stunned, and the first thought that came to his mind was, could it be that this mayor was strapped for money and wanted to sell his property?

But on second thought, how is this possible, how can this mayor, who is the founder of Zoufenberg News Corporation, with a net worth of $20 billion, be reduced to the point of selling his property?

Although he didn't know why the mayor asked this, Jin Muchen still replied, "Ah...... Antique jewelry...... I still know a lot. ”

He didn't blush at all when he said this, although he didn't have a collection of antique jewelry in his shop, and he himself didn't have any knowledge of it, but he couldn't let the mayor look down on him.

After all, the mayor will never come to find himself without a purpose, he must have come to him for a purpose, and for this Zuofenberg, Jin Muchen has a deep friendship.

Although this old man is over 60 years old, he has been at the helm of New York for ten years, and in 2008, this old man paid out of his own pocket and spent more than a billion dollars to participate in the US presidential election as a non-partisan person, but unfortunately he was defeated in the hands of Ao Xiaohei.

Next year is an election year, and who knows if this old man will go crazy again and plan to run for president?

However, the outside world speculates that he is very likely to participate in the election, although he is very old, but the real ambition of this old man. It's never small.

For such both money. and right. The key is that Jin Muchen must be a good friend, especially as an antique dealer.

"Well, that's right, I recently had a friend who was going to have a birthday, and I was going to give her a gift. My friend has a peculiar preference, and is not very interested in other things. But it's a special call for antique jewelry. I've been busy lately and don't have time to choose gifts for her personally, and I don't know much about antique jewelry, so I thought of entrusting Mr. Jin to see if you can help me pick out a suitable set of gifts. ”

Although this Michael was understated, Jin Muchen could hear that his friend was obviously very important to him.

You must know that this old man himself is quite a remarkable character, and he is not bad for money, what antique jewelry can not be found?

But this time, he didn't look for someone else, but found himself. Apparently he took this gift very seriously, and perhaps he had a plan for the man. Find a way to get close to that person.

Can it be simple to make the mayor of New York and a billionaire stammer?

But whatever, he is just a middleman he entrusted, as long as this matter is done beautifully, presumably in the old man's heart, there will be a lot of impression points, not good in the future he will find himself to serve as his art investment consultant, if that's the case, then his life will be happy.

In the future, I don't dare to say that I will walk sideways in New York, at least the small characters who are generally not open-minded, and I will definitely not dare to offend myself lightly.

So of course, Jin Muchen agreed: "No problem, this matter is on me, but I have to take the liberty of asking, Michael, what style of antique jewelry do you like?" And do you have an approximate price in mind? ”

"Well, I'm really not sure about this, you just look at the choice, I don't know much about the style of antique jewelry, you might as well just give me a set of everything." As for the price? You look at it, as long as the unit price is not less than 100,000 US dollars, as for the upper limit? There is no upper limit! ”

Michael waved the wine glass in his hand, with a bit of a scolding taste, and then brought the glass to his lips and took a sip.

Jin Muchen secretly praised in his heart, he is really rich and capricious, he likes your momentum of spending a lot of money without blinking, this is what people call real tyrants!

"Okay, no problem, I'll do it. When do you want to? ”

Jin Muchen patted his chest and agreed, this is a good opportunity to open up the upper class of New York, and he knows that he must not miss it.

This Zoffenberg is a key to his entry into the upper class of New York society, a good opportunity to expand the business channels of his antique store, so he must not miss this time.

"The sooner the better, and when you're done, call me directly. Oh, this is my private phone number......"

Michael said with a smile, and handed over a card to Jin Muchen, Jin Muchen put the card away, and the two chatted a few more words, and then the mayor got up and said goodbye.

"What happened when the mayor came to you?"

During dinner, Uncle Fang asked at the dinner table, Jin Muchen told Uncle Fang about the mayor's entrustment, of course Uncle Fang knew what the mayor's entrustment meant, and he was very happy for Jin Muchen.

"Chinese-style antique jewelry, you don't have to worry, where do I happen to have a set of jadeite five-piece set, wait for you to see, if you agree, you can take it first, as for other Western-style antique jewelry, it's up to you."

Uncle Fang smiled and said to Jin Muchen, his five-piece jade suit, Jin Muchen has also seen it, it was received by Uncle Fang from a family of immigrants from a treasure island in the early years, necklaces, earrings, bracelets, rings, and head flowers.

The old objects in the late Qing Dynasty, the workmanship is very beautiful, and the value is not low, Uncle Fang has always hidden it by himself, but he didn't expect to take it out to him this time, Jin Muchen hurriedly refused, but he couldn't resist Uncle Fang.

"That set of things is not a top-notch jewelry, and I plan to sell it one day, doesn't this happen to have such a good opportunity to sell? You can take it, people don't necessarily like it, if you can't sell it, you can get it back to me. ”

Uncle Fang's words had a taste of undoubtedness, although Jin Muchen argued a few more words, but in the end, he still couldn't pass Uncle Fang, so he could only nod his head and agree.

But this Chinese-style antique jewelry is available, but what about the Western-style?

Although Jin Muchen has some understanding of Western antiques, he does not know much about Western-style antique jewelry.

The value of antiques is mainly reflected in the cherishibility of antiques, the inheritance of history, the artistic value, and the archaeological value.

The value of antique jewelry is first reflected in the material of the jewelry itself, workmanship, and then the historical inheritance, although it can be regarded as antiques in essence, but if it really talks about the value, it is very different.

As soon as he thought of the mayor's commission, Jin Muchen felt that he had a headache, and then he thought that Zuofenberg was quite anxious, and his side was also under pressure, so he didn't sleep that night, holding a Western antique jewelry yearbook and making up for it all night, and finally had a general understanding of Western antique jewelry.

But if you want to be more specific, let him collect it himself, it's still a little dizzy.

Early this morning, Candace drove his pickup truck to school early, and after the Infiniti SUV he won before was damaged, Jin Muchen never bought a new car, and he didn't have that plan.

One is that they live here conveniently, they don't need to drive far to meet their needs, and the other is because parking in Manhattan is so difficult.

In front of their house, because they face two main streets, even if it is the door of their house, they don't have their own parking space, and they have to pay for parking, and the key is that they often can't find a parking space, so he stopped thinking about buying a car.

Candace went to school, Fang Bo ran the antique store in front, and Jin Muchen sat in the living room on the third floor, holding the Western antique jewelry yearbook and continuing to work hard.

At this moment, Uncle Fang's shout came from downstairs, and Jin Muchen went downstairs to take a look, it turned out that someone had sent something to sell at the door.

Another advantage of opening an antique store is that sometimes even if you don't go out to collect antiques, some people who are strapped for money will naturally send you some good things.

Because he sent a set of silverware, although Fang Bo followed him to make up a lot of knowledge about Western antiques, after all, the time involved in it was relatively short, so he didn't have a deep understanding of Western antiques, so he didn't dare to draw conclusions at this time, so he asked Jin Muchen to come down and take a look.

Jin Muchen came to the counter and glanced at the person who came to give the antiques to sell, an old black man of about sixty or seventy years old, with a medium stature and gray hair, but the hardships of life were all written on his face, and it could be seen that this old man's life was not comfortable.

However, he was uncomfortable, Jin Muchen didn't care, and when he turned around, he turned his attention to the set of silverware sent by the old man.

There are six pieces of silverware in this set, five of which are tea sets, including a coffee pot, a teapot, a sugar pot and a milk jug, and a small silver bowl that is supposed to hold refreshments.

This set of silverware tea sets is not quite the same style as those silverware tea sets he has seen before.

In the past, the silverware tea sets he used to get his hands on were all tricks on the teapot, or the coffee pot to perform the process, what carving, filigree, and other crafts are used for you, the patterns on the tea set look beautiful, but it is also very complicated.

However, the pattern style on this set of tea set silverware is very simple, only the process of hand-carved flowers is used, and the carving is also very concise, and it pays attention to symmetry.

Although it is not as elaborate as the Baroque or Rococo style, it does have a quiet and elegant temperament, and it definitely belongs to the kind of good things that are endured and beautiful.

And it is not easy to be able to preserve it in a complete set to this day, and the quality is perfect.

As for the other flask, it was even more strange.

Silver tea set, Jin Muchen has seen a lot, he has seen silver wine set for the first time, and more importantly, the silver light flashing on this silver wine jug...... (To be continued......)
