Chapter 682: Wool Auction (I)
Liu Sizhe said with a smile: "Anyway, we are mainly here to play, and it feels more interesting to go to the auction." And since the auction won't take long, let's wait for the results of the auction and then go to the store to pick a few pieces of wool, just in time. β
The others nodded in agreement.
"Alright, let's go......"
Seeing Liu Sizhe say this, Chu Chen also nodded. After saying that, he packed up his things and prepared to let Uncle Wu help deal with them.
Just as they walked out of the reception room, Uncle Wu and Zhao Xueyi also happened to come down from the upstairs with a smile.
After the two sides said hello, Chu Chen handed the things to Uncle Wu, and then explained again.
When Zhao Xueyi heard that Chu Chen had bought a golden fish talisman, he was immediately surprised, and hurriedly took out the thing, observed it carefully, and then asked Chu Chen: "Xiao Chen, do you have any idea of transferring this fish talisman?" If you want to transfer, I'll pay 300,000! β
After all, the gold fish talisman is gold, and it is not big, and the process is not complicated, it can be said that its historical value is higher than the collection value, therefore, according to the current market situation of gold in the Tang Dynasty, Zhao Xueyi gave a price of 300,000, which is already very high.
However, Chu Chen didn't mean to transfer it, he shook his head: "You also know that this thing is rare, I want to collect it myself." However, Uncle Zhao, you don't seem to like collecting gold and silverware, why are you so interested in my goldfish talisman? β
Zhao Xueyi explained with a smile: "Of course I'm not very interested in this thing, but one of my old customers, he especially likes to collect ancient talismans. Like the fish and turtle charms of the Tang Dynasty, he also collected a lot. However, he searched for the golden fish talisman for several years and couldn't find it, which is a pity. So I usually help him pay attention to it, and he pays a high price. β
"Xiaochen, don't be in a hurry to refuse, he has a lot of good collections at home, let him come over by himself then, you discuss it face-to-face, and then you make a decision, how about it?"
Chu Chen thought about it for a while, and exchanged the fish talisman for a collection that he liked more. He nodded and said, "Okay, but I've been busy lately, and I guess I won't have time until April." β
"Anyway, he's been waiting for so long, it doesn't matter if he and I wait for a few days, then you have time, just call me!" Zhao Xueyi said with a smile.
"Okay, then we'll get in touch ...... then."
After saying goodbye to Uncle Wu and the others, Chu Chen and his party came to Xiangyun Pavilion while talking and laughing.
At this time. Lu Changshun was already standing at the door of Xiangyun Pavilion to greet the guests, he saw Chu Chen and others coming, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him warmly, and then led Chu Chen and the others upstairs.
The layout on the second floor is actually similar to the last meeting. The only difference is that on the left side of the room, there are pieces of wool that have been numbered. It's not that big, though. Of course, this is also normal. After all, the auction venue is on the second floor, if it is too big. It's also not easy to move.
After Lu Changshun ushered Chu Chen and the others to their seats, he said goodbye and went downstairs to greet the guests.
Since it was a wool auction, it was always necessary to observe the wool carefully, so after Lu Changshun left, the group acted separately and found a piece of wool to observe.
After all, it is Lu Changshun's treasured wool, and the quality is very high, but at least three-quarters of the wool in the middle of these wool materials are semi-bright materials with open windows, and only a quarter of the wool is full gambling wool, and although the full gambling wool looks very good, it is still worse than the semi-bright materials.
In fact, this is also normal, Lu Changshun held this auction, originally prepared to raise funds, a good half-bright material can be sold for better money, and it is reasonable to have more semi-clear materials.
Of course, if it is a particularly outstanding full gambling material, the price is not low, but these table xiΓ n are particularly outstanding full gambling materials, Lu Changshun is not willing to take them out, because such wool materials, in terms of the current market situation, the increase in value is very large, and he might as well collect it himself It is more cost-effective.
Although there are still variables in semi-clear materials, the possibility is not very high, and for Chu Chen, who has special abilities, semi-clear materials are much less attractive than full gambling materials.
Of course, among these dozens of semi-clear materials, there is still a piece that Chu Chen is very satisfied with, because the internal variant of this piece of wool is discolored. From the window, it is the old pit glass yellow and green, but this layer of jadeite is only about five centimeters thick, under the jadeite, it is a layer of about two centimeters of white cotton, and below, it is the old pit glass emerald, and the size is not small, Chu Chen estimated that its value is at least more than eight million.
Such a semi-clear material, when the filming will start, it will only be treated as an old pit glass species, even if you think of the variant and discoloration, few people will guess that there will be an old pit glass worth more than 8 million in it, therefore, this semi-clear material, Chu Chen will definitely have to fight for it for a while.
Because the main focus was on all the gambling materials, Chu Chen had much less time to observe than others, and when he saw half of it, Du Yuncheng's brother and sister walked over from the other side with a man in his forties and fifties.
After all, he had met Du Liyu once before, although the other party ignored him in the morning, but now that the two sides met face to face, Chu Chen was still ready to say hello politely, but the other three ignored him, walked directly past him, and didn't even look at him.
Seeing this situation, of course Chu Chen would not put a hot face on his cold ass, he shook his head in his heart, and looked at the wool in front of him intently.
"It's really unlucky, how did you meet that kid again!" Du Yuncheng said with an unhappy face.
"He is the Jade King, and he has a good relationship with Lu Changshun, how can the auction not come?"
Du Liyu smiled and said: "Moreover, he is a billionaire, and the store is also engaged in the jade business, you should think about it now, how can you take pictures of the wool that Master Xu thinks is good!" β
Du Yuncheng said lightly: "There are so many wool here, I don't believe that this kid can take pictures of all the wool here!" β
"Then if Master Xu sees it, he is also optimistic? With his strength, he can't compete with you? Du Liyu smiled slightly.
"Even if there is a lot of money, even if he finally buys it, I will knock out a few of his teeth!" After speaking, Du Yuncheng also glanced at Chu Chen with a disdainful gaze.
Seeing Du Yuncheng's appearance, Du Liyu smiled secretly, she can't wait to let Du Yuncheng and Chu Chen fight now, why does she have such an idea? This is because at noon, she heard a very angry news from Du Shengqing's servant, Du Shengqing wanted to leave two-thirds of his assets to Du Yuncheng.
Not to mention that he didn't get more property, he also shared so much, which is unacceptable for Du Liyu, who also regards wealth as his life. However, she knew that her father's decision was difficult to change, so she deliberately provoked Du Yuncheng.
Du Liyu's idea is very simple, since I can't get it, I can't get it for you, and when the time comes, it is best for both sides to lose both, even if there is no both, with Chu Chen's strength, Du Yuncheng will definitely not be able to please him.
Du Yuncheng didn't know that his own sister was thinking about how to plot against him, at this time, he was thinking about how to achieve his goal for a while, and at the same time, he could make Chu Chen suffer.
After thinking about it, he felt that it was more convenient to raise the price during the auction, of course, he would only have the option to raise the price, so that he would not be so stupid that whenever Chu Chen bid, he would fight to the death, the taste of confrontation would be too strong, and it would not be good for him.
An hour passed in a flash, and by this time, everyone had already looked at the wool and returned to their seats.
Liu Sizhe took a sip of tea and sighed: "Brother Chen, there are a lot of excellent wool here, but it is too expensive, so let's say that the sixteen pieces of all-gambling wool, the lowest starting price is actually 500,000!" β
Chu Chen said with a smile: "Although the price is not cheap, but the quality of the wool here is good, let's just say that the starting price of the piece you said is 500,000, I can see that the possibility of high ice jadeite is not small." β
Liu Sizhe shook his head: "Even if it is a high ice species, but that piece of wool is too small, unless it is full of jadeite, otherwise it will definitely lose money, but even if the whole piece of wool is jadeite, I think it will be a maximum of four or five hundred thousand, in this case, the risk is too high, and there will definitely be few people who will shoot for a while." β
Chu Chen smiled slightly, and agreed with what Liu Sizhe said, after all, gambling stones are a very high-risk business, and it seems like a lot to earn four or five hundred thousand, but the risk is also very large, and this is not a theoretical number jΓΉ, under normal circumstances, the theoretical number jΓΉ is difficult to achieve, and all of you here are experienced businessmen, and of course the trade-offs are still clear.
At this moment, Lu Changshun walked up to the stage and said a few polite words, and then a thirty-five or sixteen-year-old auctioneer walked up to the stage.
"Gentlemen, ladies and gentlemen, welcome to ...... Next, the auction officially begins. Lot 1, a piece of pineapple peel semi-bright material from the Damakan area, is oval in shape, weighs 4.5 kilograms, and has three windows on the left, right and below, all of which are high-ice apple green...... The starting price is 780,000 yuan, and each price increase shall not be less than 10,000 ......"
The pineapple peel is the most representative rough stone in Damakan, and the table of the window is also good, so as soon as the auctioneer's words fell, the scene sounded one after another bidding. Of course, after all, the size of the wool material is not large, and the price increase is not high, and finally it was auctioned by a jadeite merchant in his fifties at a price of 1.39 million.
Chu Chen had also "seen" that piece of wool before, although the jadeite in it was not small, but unfortunately the color was not uniform, and it was bought for 1.39 million, and if the various costs were removed, the buyer would not make too much. But because it is a semi-clear material, the buyer can also estimate his gains and losses, which is why some small and medium-sized jadeite dealers like semi-clear materials. (To be continued......)
