Chapter 123: Dark Loss
When Zhao Qirui saw this piece of Fu Lu Shou at a glance, he was attracted by it, and couldn't help but take it in his hand and play with it.
Taking advantage of this time, Chu Chen began to look at the general manager's office.
Zhao Qirui's general manager's office, the furnishings are not luxurious, but it should be designed by a master, through the customized bookshelves, as well as the clever placement of Bogu cabinets, plus a few bonsai embellishments, so that the whole room looks antique, quite charming, in this environment to work, I believe the mood will be very comfortable.
After a while, Zhao Qirui said with a smile while playing with this precious jade:
"What a piece of jade! Xiao Chu, how much is this piece of Fu Lu Shou, I want it! ”
Chu Chen paused and said, "Brother Zhao, if you like it, this piece of jade is 800,000, what do you think?" ”
"Eight hundred thousand? Isn't it a little little? Xiao Chu, don't fool me! Zhao Qirui said with a straight face.
Chu Chen waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhao, this price is just right, you can rest assured, I am not a living Lei Feng, the realm is not so high, if you don't believe it, you can ask Xiaolan." ”
Zhao Qirui smiled: "You kid, if I find out that the price of things is wrong next time, I will definitely not ask you to bring things again." By the way, take advantage of a little time, you can help me look at a garlic bottle I took back from Yu Guangjie. ”
After seeing Chu Chen nod, Zhao Qirui stood up and took down a garlic bottle from the Bogu cabinet on the side.
Garlic bottle for the Ming and Qing dynasties Jingde. One of the common bottle types in the town kiln, imitated from the bronze garlic pot of the Han Dynasty, its shape has a long neck, shaved shoulders, a round belly, a circle foot, and the bottle mouth resembles a garlic head and is named. The shape is like a garlic head and the neck is slightly long, which can also be called a tiger claw bottle.
Chu Chen put on his gloves, picked up the garlic bottle in front of him, and looked at it carefully.
This garlic bottle is shaped like an elongated peach, but it is still a typical garlic bottle style, with a long neck, a garlic mouth, and three fruit patterns (peach, pomegranate, persimmon) painted on the belly of the bottle, and corresponding flowers are applied to the fruit pattern.
The lower part of the bottle body is the lotus petal pattern, the circle foot is skimmed, the foot is the sea water pattern, the shoulder is decorated with a six-petal lotus petal pattern and the back pattern, the flame pattern in the lotus petal, the convex yang line under the back line, the garlic mouth is painted back line, and the back line is the entwined branch camellia under the back line.
The bottom of the bottle book blue and white "Qianlong year of the Qing Dynasty" six-character seal seal, the font is neat and powerful, from the font and writing of the paragraph, it is indeed this dynasty.
Judging from the fetal bone of the bottle, it is white and dense, there is no flint red at the junction of the fetal glaze, and the fetal wall is slightly thicker than the Yongzheng blue and white. The green material is made of domestic green material, the color is stable and bright, and it looks pure blue, which is also a typical feature of the middle Qianlong period.
So to sum up, judging from the performance of all aspects, this garlic bottle is indeed an official kiln work in the Qianlong period, and the painting is fine, which can be said to be a rare boutique.
However, Chu Chen took a closer look, but found a little abnormality, and then used the ability to identify, the value was greatly reduced, so he put the garlic bottle on the coffee table carefully, and said:
"Brother Zhao, from the characteristics of fetal bones, green materials, style knowledge, etc., this bottle is indeed a fine product of this dynasty, but there is a problem, this bottle is a repairer, although the level of repair is very high, but the value must not be compared with the complete device."
When Zhao Qirui heard this, his face couldn't help but change, and he said, "What? How can it be a piece of restoration? ”
"Brother Zhao, look!"
Chu Chen pointed to a place under the blue and white at the mouth of the bottle, and after Zhao Qirui observed it carefully, he couldn't help but talk about the dirty mouth, there was indeed a small crack there, and he couldn't see it at all if he didn't pay attention to it.
Zhao Qirui slapped his hands fiercely, and said angrily: "Yu Guangjie's grandson, since it is a repairer, he is not even marked on the catalog, next time I must go to him to settle accounts." ”
Generally speaking, before the auction, if there is a defect in an auction object, the auctioneer should explain to the bidder the defect of the auction object, and if the defect of the auction object does not explain that the defect of the auction object causes damage to the buyer, the buyer has the right to claim compensation from the auctioneer, but there is another circumstance.
Chu Chen asked: "This, Brother Zhao, is there a sentence written on the catalogue that the authenticity or quality of the auction object cannot be guaranteed?" ”
When Zhao Qirui heard this, his face was red and white, and he immediately went to a bunch of magazines to rummage through it, and after a while, he found a thick book of pictures, and after reading it, he couldn't help but shake his head in frustration. Seeing this situation, Chu Chen also knew that this was unfortunately what he said.
Zhao Qirui smiled bitterly: "This time I suffered a secret loss, fortunately Xiao Chu reminded me in time, otherwise the money would not have to come back, and I would have lost my face." ”
In this case, although Zhao Qirui's strength is stronger than that of Yu Guangjie's family, it is not strong enough to be unreasonable. And no matter how strong you are, when you deal with others, you must have a reason to talk about the past, otherwise others will not be able to obey you.
Like now, it has been noted on the catalogue that the authenticity or quality of the auction object cannot be guaranteed, and Zhao Qirui cannot go to Yu Guangjie to settle accounts with the reason that the catalogue is not marked as a restorer, which can only be regarded as his own eyesight. Otherwise, even if he went to the court, it would be impossible to support Zhao Qirui.
Therefore, if you have already marked on the auction catalogue like this, and the auction that sets aside the responsibility of the auction company, you must go to the pre-auction exhibition to see it carefully, and if you don't understand it, it is best to ask a master with a palm.
And the information on the auction catalogue like this must also be treated with caution, maybe the above things are fakes. After all, there are many buyers who do not have such the ability to discriminate, and believe the false information on the catalogue, buy a valuable fake, and find out the truth afterwards, and can only regret it.
A repairer made Zhao Qirui's good mood ruined, and the atmosphere in the office seemed very boring, but fortunately, after a while, Liu Qinshu arrived with the relevant personnel in their company, which made the atmosphere relaxed.
"What's wrong with you two, what's the conflict?" Seeing this, Liu Qinshu asked a little strangely.
Zhao Qirui smiled bitterly: "No, it's just that I auctioned a garlic bottle at the auction before, and I suffered a dumb loss." ”
Liu Qinshu saw the garlic bottle on the coffee table, and guessed that it should be said that this was the case, so he took a closer look after getting started, and after putting it down, he said strangely: "Isn't this garlic bottle quite haode?" Could it be that the fakes are doing the same? ”
"It's not a fake, this thing is indeed a work of this dynasty, but it's a restorer, I took it when I was a complete instrument, do you say it's a nest?"
Liu Qinshu also saw the gap under Chu Chen's guidance, shook his head, and said: "Won't you go to the auction company for this matter, just rely on your strength, this little thing can always be done, right?" ”
Zhao Qirui said helplessly: "The key is that the responsibility has been cleared on the catalog, how can you let me trouble him, I, Zhao Qirui, still want to be faced." ”
Liu Qinshu said speechlessly: "Who can be blamed for this, you can only blame your poor eyesight and lack of vigilance, but don't worry about it, it's useless to worry about it, let's sign the contract first." ”
Zhao Qirui had experienced a lot of setbacks, so he immediately changed his mentality and said, "Hehe, let's go, let's go to the conference room together." ”
In fact, the contract has been drafted, and it only needs Chu Chen's confirmation to sign, and Chu Chen's relevant obligations as a shareholder have not been reduced, and it is also indicated that no matter how the capital is injected in the future, Chu Chen's shares will always remain at 25%, which should be said to be a special preferential treatment for Chu Chen.
Originally, Chu Chen didn't want to accept this, he originally intended to turn the formula into a fixed amount, but Zhao Qirui and Liu Qinshu moved out of Liu Lao, and he could only agree.
After signing the book, Chu Chen couldn't help but be in a trance, this time Zhao Qirui and they had invested 500 million yuan in advance, and with his current 25% shares, he was now a billionaire, which made his mood really complicated.
Next, Zhao Qirui and Liu Qinshu had other things to deal with, so Chu Chen and A Chao were ready to pick up Zhou Wenping to see the house, and they also had to hand over the relevant information of the household registration to A Chao.
Before leaving, Zhao Qirui gave Chu Chen a newly made Tranquility Candle and asked him to go back and try the effect. This tranquilization candle is much more fragrant than the previous original in terms of fragrance, which also makes Chu Chen look forward to its effect.
The house selected by Ah Chao to help Zhou Wen is located in a mid-to-high-end community in the center of Xicheng, with three bedrooms and one living room of more than 130 square meters, and a small room that can be used as a study or warehouse, and a garage.
The house has been finely decorated, it can be said that it is ready to live, whether it is the location of the house or the style, Zhou Wenping is quite satisfied, but he guesses that the price of a house like this should be expensive, which makes him a little worried.
Zhou Wenping asked with some hesitation: "Ah Chao, I am satisfied with this house, but in terms of price?" ”
Ah Chao smiled and said, "I've already asked for the price, 420,000, what do you think?" ”
"Four hundred and twenty thousand? A house like this costs only 420,000? Chao, you're not mistaken? Zhou Wenping couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded when he heard this price.
Chu Chen was also a little surprised when he heard this price, you must know that this community can be in the center of Xicheng, and it is still a mid-to-high-end community. Even if it is a little related, it would be good to be able to take it for 4,000, so more than 130 square meters, at least 520,000, not counting the garage.
And don't forget, this house is still a finely decorated house, Chu Chen took a look, and the materials used are all real materials, and now at this price, the decoration is like picking it up for nothing, how not to surprise the two.
Ah Chao smiled: "You can rest assured, the developer of this community is a friend of Mr. Zhao, even at this price, he still has to earn." ”
