Chapter 234: Fate
Yang Kang was suddenly curious, and hurriedly asked, "Have you gambled on the jade?" β
"Nope!" Guo Fatzi said, "I got five million to play, Xiucai also went, and the monkey also smashed two million, of course, there is no fart, Xiucai was lucky, and he also bought a piece of floating flowers, and he didn't lose much, and the two of us just lost everything." I secretly told you that I didn't dare to go home for most of the year, even so, when I went back for the New Year, I let my father scold me fiercely. β
"It's time to scold!" Yang Kang couldn't help but be funny, he didn't know how to gamble on stones at all, so he went to play this, isn't this just spending money to buy stones, trying to make people see jokes.
"That time I went to Huacheng to have something!" Guo Fatzi said, "Xiucai and I were purely fooled, and as a resultβ" As he spoke, he helplessly spread his hands.
Yang Kang smiled, but he didn't say anything, if he went to Huacheng, it was estimated that he would spend some money to have fun.
"There are five million, and you can buy a very beautiful jade to hang around your neck." Yang Kang smiled, "The one on my neck is not worth five million, why don't we wait and go to the Jade Workshop to have a look?" β
"What are you going to do at Jade Place?" Guo Fatzi asked puzzled.
"Look, you gave me that piece of mutton fat white jade lily jade pendant from the Song Dynasty." Yang Kang said with a smile, "Gifts are still exchanged, I'll give you a piece of jade to hang on!" β
Guo Fatzi opened his mouth and was about to refuse, but he heard Yang Kang say: "If you refuse, does it mean that I should also return that piece of lily jade pendant to you?" β
"No, no, no!" Guo Fatzi smiled innocently and said, "Otherwise, I'll go to the Jade Workshop later." β
"Hmm!" Yang Kang nodded. The Jade Workshop is on the antique street, however, the Jade Workshop does not sell antique jade, but specializes in buying jadeite.
"I know the owner of the Jade Workshop." Yang Kang smiled, "Don't say anything else, you won't buy dyed things." β
"You don't know the boss, you won't buy dyed things, do you?" Guo Fatzi smiled, "You seem to have a unique eye for jade?" For example, what kind of topaz just now, I don't look good. At least not on the surface. It's not worth the money, but you say yes. β
"That's great!" Yang Kang was suddenly stunned for a moment, and suddenly remembered when he looked at the piece of Tianhuang Shuanglong Ruyi Jade Pendant. It is seen with the Taiyin Treasure Book. Nature sees it first-hand. The color is orange and yellow, and the pulp is full, like solidified honey. However, that thing looks normal, the color is a little darker, and because it is something in the Qianlong period of the Qing Dynasty, it is almost two hundred years old from now, although there is no weathering and calcification, but it looks dull, plus there are some brown skins, no wonder the dead fat man has repeatedly slandered, that thing is not good-looking, like poop......
"This dead fat man ......," Yang Kang cursed secretly in his heart.
As for that Gu Ping, he completely fooled him, this guy is not a good person, ask him what he wants to buy, he runs an antique shop, and his eyesight is extraordinary, at least until the time in front of him, there has been no fake in the things he has produced.
So, he used him as a free appraiser.
Yang Kang felt a little wronged when he thought about it, if Gu Ping hadn't intervened horizontally, that piece of Tianhuang Shuanglong Ruyi Jade Pendant would have been able to be won for only about 2.5 million, this is still someone bidding indiscriminately, if no one bids indiscriminately, he can pick up a small leak.
The auction of Mai Miao Auction House was very successful, and the things were sold out one by one, although two of them were unsold, but, on the whole, the transaction effect was good.
Soon, it was the last thing - the Red Mansion poem manuscript and the "Sketch of Qin Xi Orchid", after some rendering by the auctioneer, the thing began to be auctioned.
However, something unexpected happened to Yang Kang, and it began to be cold.
For two minutes, no one made a bid, which made Yang Kang very uncomfortable, and even, he was almost ready to pick up the auction card, press a number, and buy it back by himself.
Just as he picked up the auction card, pressed down a number of 23 million, and was about to press the confirmation button, the big screen in front of him lit up, and the 21st buyer bid 25 million.
Then, there were people bidding chaotically, and the auctioneer didn't seem to advocate much, and the price went all the way up, directly exceeding 30 million.
"Little prince, let's go out to dinner today." Guo Fatzi said, "Call Xiucai, fools, monkeys and others, let's go to Fengqi Restaurant." β
"Good!" Yang Kang said with a smile, he understood what he meant, he made money today, so he naturally wanted to have a treat, and besides, they didn't call the stupid big man for dinner yesterday, which was not appropriate after all.
Huang Tang and Jiang Youwei forget it, but the stupid big man has been hanging out with Feng Xiucai recently, and he doesn't take him to dinner, so it's a little unreasonable.
While the two were talking and laughing, the Red Mansion poem manuscript and "Qinxi Orchid Sketch" were finally sold at a price of 37.7 million yuan, which happened to be the 21st buyer, which was Gu Ping.
"Forget it, for the sake of his dedication, I won't settle accounts with him later." Yang Kang said, immediately stood up, and after going through a simple procedure, he left directly with Guo Fatzi.
"Let's go to the Jade Workshop!" Yang Kang sat in the co-pilot's seat, pulled the safety belt, and said.
"Good!" Guo Fatzi said, and slowly started the car.
Since the Jade Workshop is on the antique street, Guo Fatzi also knows that the car drove directly over, and when the two entered the door, there was a beautiful little girl, wearing a cheongsam, with a good figure that made people drool, with a smile on her face, bowed to the two and said, "Welcome." β
Yang Kang felt in an instant that buying antiques and buying jewelry were really different, if they were buying antiques, generally speaking, people would ignore the guests, and they all pretended not to see the guests who broke in by mistake.
Of course, Ruyi Fang did not even have a guest who entered by mistake.
"What do you want to see?" The beautiful little girl smiled like a flower and said, "We have a good jade in our house, do you wear it yourself or give it away?" β
"I want to go to the second floor of your house!" Yang Kang said directly, he knew that the things on the first floor of the Jade Workshop were generally a few thousand yuan to more than 100,000 yuan, and the target consumer group was ordinary people.
However, the second floor of their house is different, they are all some fine jadeite, not really ready to buy guests, their house is generally not seen.
"This-" Sure enough, as soon as Yang Kang said, the waiter was a little embarrassed.
"I'm a regular customer of yours." Yang Kang said as he took out the jade jade pendant of "Green Pine Proud Snow" from the collar of his shirt, and said with a smile, "This is what my father bought for me, and now, my friend also wants to buy a piece to hang on." β
"Oh?" Sure enough, as soon as the waiter saw his piece of jade, he hurriedly said, "It's a regular customer, you haven't been here often lately!" β
The waiter looked like I was very familiar with you, and beckoned: "In that case, the two of you go upstairs to have a look." With that, she led Yang Kang and Guo Fatzi towards the second floor.
"You really bought it?" Guo Fatzi followed behind him and asked in a low voice.
"Hmm!" Yang Kang nodded and said, "Don't you like it very much?" β
"I like it, but the problem is-" Guo Fatzi doesn't know how to say it, he likes gambling stones, likes the excitement, he is very normal for jadeite finished products, and he has never been very arrogant, he is not particular about these things, and he is not the "noble" luxury Feng Xiucai.
There are not many things on the second floor, but they are indeed boutiques, Yang Kang looked at the past, ordinary small things, naturally not made, he saw a kitten brooch with a whole body of emerald green, made of white gold inlaid with small diamonds, but it is very cute, in fact, it is a round egg and a drop-shaped egg inlay.
"Sir, do you want to see this brooch?" The waiter saw him looking at the brooch and said busily, "This brooch is a glass of yang green, and the color is very good, so it's right to give it to a girl." β
"Hmm!" Yang Kang smiled, "It's a very delicate thing - all your things are here?" He looked around, most of them were small things, such as Doudou, Ping An Buckle, Ruyi, Jade Buddha, etc., but it didn't look suitable for the fat man.
After all, just for the fat man's physique, the thing is too small, and it is not suitable to wear it.
"There's still a shop window over there!" The waiter said.
"Oh?" Yang Kang nodded, immediately turned around, and walked towards the window near the window.
"Little prince, look-" Guo Fatzi said suddenly.
Yang Kang was stunned for a moment, and looked at the jade pendant, he could understand why Guo Fatzi was surprised, because the color of this piece of jade was very similar to the "green pine and proud snow" on his body, all of which were glass species floating green, and they were all made into a perfect circle, the difference was that the piece of jade on the direct body, the green place was cleverly carved into a pine leaf, and this piece was carved into a lotus leaf.
Moreover, the lotus leaf of this piece is in the upper left, and below is a Guanyin monk sitting cross-legged, the face of Guanyin is peaceful and compassionate, and the carving process is very exquisite.
"Good!" Guo Fatzi smiled, "My grandmother has worshiped Guanyin Niangniang since she was a child, and I look at this jade pendant, which is quite kind." β
Yang Kang said with a smile: "There is a saying that a man wears Guanyin and a woman brings Buddha, this is very good, it is naturally suitable for you, and you have followed your grandmother to worship Guanyin, which is also a kind of fate." β
He never believed in fate, but today he still believes in it.
"Yes, yes, yes!" The waiter next to him also nodded again and again, "Sir, the jadeite in the window here is carefully selected by our boss, and it is definitely the best." Of course, the point is that this jade pendant is related to this gentleman. β
This made Guo Fatzi a little embarrassed, it seems that if they don't buy this jade pendant today, they will miss fate? (To be continued......)
