Hearing the words of the middle-aged fat man, Boss Du frowned, and then said to Jiang Wei with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, can you take a look at your folding fan." (Please search, or enter directly to see the latest chapter)"
Jiang Wei suddenly looked at Chen Yi, Chen Yi nodded and smiled, took out the folding fan from the cloth bag in his hand that was not worth two yuan, shook it gently, and opened it.
When he got the modern printing fan on this folding fan, the middle-aged fat man suddenly laughed, "This is obviously the color of modern printing, and I will also use it for Boss Du to identify, you really think that Boss Du is your servant." β
"Manager Zhou has a good eyesight, and he can recognize that this is a modern print." Boss Du smiled at the middle-aged fat man and said.
"Ahem, Boss Du is serious, compared to you, I still need to learn." Hearing Boss Du's words, the middle-aged fat man was still humble.
Let Chen Yi and Jiang Wei laugh a little on the side, the ridicule in Boss Du's words was already very obvious, but he didn't expect this middle-aged man to really take it as a compliment.
"Hehe, but Manager Zhou, your previous words are a little wrong, even if your painting is really Dong Qichang's genuine product, worth tens of millions, you can only buy one or twenty handfuls, and you can't buy a car with just a little drawing paper." Boss Du also frowned when he saw the modern printed fan, but when he saw the fan bone down, his face became dignified, and then he saw the carved pattern on the side bone, and also knew the value of the folding fan, but he did not show the line on the other side of the bone.
The middle-aged fat man showed shock on his face, "Boss Du." You're not mistaken, just this broken fan is worth hundreds of thousands. β
"Hehe, yes or no, you'll know in a while, Manager Zhou, since you're all in a hurry, how about coming in for identification, of course, if it's inconvenient for Manager Zhou. But wait a minute. Boss Du said with a smile. In just a few words, this dispute was completely resolved, so that Chen Yi couldn't help but admire, and he really opened a shop in the antique city. Resilience is strength. And it's very sleek.
Of course. This may also be because his own reputation is not big enough, but if he meets such a person in Gao Cunzhi's place. It is estimated that Gao Cunzhi doesn't have to do it himself, just the collectors who are picking things in the Jiya Pavilion next to him are all foaming at the mouthful, drowning the middle-aged fat man.
When Gao Cunzhi was appraising the dragon-shaped jade pendant sold to Qi Tianchen for him, Qi Tianchen said that he was a liar, and Boss Wang, who had problems with his conduct, couldn't help but step forward to reprimand Qi Tianchen, which shows how famous Gao Cunzhi is in Haoyang Antique City.
"Okay, one piece is one piece, I want to see how their broken fan is worth hundreds of thousands." The middle-aged fat man thought about it and snorted coldly.
Chen Yi is not interested in getting angry with the middle-aged fat man now, he still thinks that he will take advantage of this middle-aged fat man for a while.
"Mr. Jiang, you and this little friend shouldn't have any opinions." Immediately, Boss Du looked at Jiang Wei and Chen Yi again, although these two would not refuse, they always had to ask to show politeness.
Jiang Wei shook his head, "Boss Du, we are here for you to appraise, and we will listen to your arrangement." β
"Alright, you guys come in with me." Boss Du smiled slightly, said to them, and then walked to the back of the store.
At the back of the shop, there is a room, but compared to Gao Cunzhi's Ji Ya Ge, the whole shop pΓΉ seems a little small, this room is very complete with things, bookshelves, chairs and tea sets, all available, so that people can wait for the appraisal, but not too boring.
"Hehe, please sit down, I don't know which of you will identify first." Boss Du said to the three of them with a smile, and then poured a cup of brewed tea for each of them.
The middle-aged fat man hesitated for a moment, and then pointed at them with his chin, "My old Zhou is not an unreasonable person, let them identify it first, and in addition, I also want to know how this fan is worth hundreds of thousands." β
Looking at the face of the middle-aged fat man, Chen Yi couldn't help but smile, now at the critical moment of identification, this middle-aged man has no previous arrogance, and must be less confident in his own things.
"Okay, let's identify Mr. Jiang and theirs first." Boss Du also smiled, then took the fan from Chen Yi's hand, came to the back of the table, sat down gently, put on glasses, and carefully observed the fan.
Boss Du observed the fan bone little by little, and finally naturally appeared on the side bone with five big characters, "Hey, there is a Hengtang system, it's hard to believe, it's hard to believe, this fan bone is actually made by Hengtang, Mr. Jiang, who bought this folding fan, you must know a little bit about this folding fan." After seeing these five big words, he studied them carefully, and his face showed a look of amazement, and then he raised his head and asked Jiang Wei and Chen Yi.
After all, compared to other antiques, folding fans are somewhat inconspicuous, and high value is rare, and they come here to identify their value, so they must know the basic value of this thing.
"Boss Du, this fan was bought by this Brother Chen next to me, he is very proficient in antiques, so he also knows the origin of Xingyouhengtang, but we can't estimate the true value of this fan bone, so I came to ask for advice." Jiang Wei pointed to Chen Yi next to him, and then said.
Boss Du couldn't help but look at Chen Yi with surprise, "Oh, it's this little friend, how much do you know about Xingyouhengtang." β
"Boss Du, there is a manufacturing office in the Qing Dynasty from Daoguang to Xianfeng in the Qing Dynasty, which is the private exclusive hall number of Prince Ding, responsible for manufacturing all kinds of handicrafts for the royal family and nobles, each of which is made of fine craftsmanship and is of extraordinary value, I have also seen it on some porcelain items, and under the explanation of the predecessors in the antique industry, I know, but I know that although I know, I don't know the specific value." Chen Yi smiled and said to Boss Du that the value given by the appraisal system is higher in the range of several million, and he doesn't know much about folding fan antiques, so the value is far less accurate than that estimated by porcelain.
Boss Du nodded and smiled, and couldn't help but look at Chen Yi a few more times, "If there are no big characters in this line of Hengtang system, then the value of this bone is between hundreds of thousands, but Xingyou Hengtang is specially produced for the royal family and nobles, and its reputation is almost unknown among senior Tibetan friends in the antique circle, since you already know some of the origins of Hengtang, then I won't say more." β
"In addition to the words Hengtang, this fan bone is made of small-leaved boxwood, small-leaved boxwood can be said to be the best in boxwood, even if it is now made of small-leaved boxwood, it is also sold by the catty, not to mention the fan bone produced by the famous Qing Dynasty office, it can be said that this kind of fan bone handed down from the Qing Dynasty is extremely rare, so, my estimate, the price of this fan bone should be between one million and one and a half million, if it can be matched with a suitable fan, its value may be higher." Boss Du said slowly.
The preservation of the fan bone is extremely difficult, from the Qing Dynasty can be handed down to the present day is even rarer, today he is fortunate to come across one, feel very lucky.
"What, this folding fan is worth more than a million, just kidding, I don't even want it if I give it to me." The middle-aged fat man said in disbelief.
"Hehe, Manager Zhou, if you have such a fan, one million, how many do you have, how much do I want, there are Hengtang fan bones, the whole of China, I only see this one." Boss Du looked at the middle-aged fat man and said lightly, self-righteous with ignorance, only these tyrants can do it.
The middle-aged fat man showed a touch of embarrassment on his face, and then immediately raised his hand and shook the painting scroll in his hand, "Boss Du, their appraisal is over, now it's time to apprais, oh no, appreciate mine, this is Dong Qichang's landscape painting, it is very valuable, and it is much better than a few bare pieces of wood." β
"Manager Zhou, five thousand years of Chinese culture, each one is different, calligraphy and painting have the culture of calligraphy and painting, but the fan bone is also the culture of the fan bone, the two can not be compared, this little friend, please put away your folding fan first, and we will communicate later." The middle-aged fat man's words made Boss Du frown again, and then said to Chen Yi.
Chen Yi smiled and took the folding fan back, he had a deeper understanding of Boss Du's state of mind, and it was probably rare to be able to face the repeated provocations of this ignorant person, and still be calm.
Saying that, he looked at the fan bone in his hand, between one million and one and a half million, which was not much different from his expectations, after all, the fan bone is not as good as the fan surface, and those who can reach one million are extremely rare.
After that, watching the middle-aged man hand over the painting scroll to Boss Du, Chen Yi showed a mysterious smile on his face, wondering if this Boss Du could show some suspicions.
Boss Du opened the scroll, and what appeared on it was a landscape picture, peaks, trees, and huts, in which there was a bit of Dong Qichang's taste, but after careful study, he couldn't help but smile and looked at the middle-aged fat man, "Manager Zhou, where did you get this painting?" β
"Ahem, Boss Du, I received it from a down-and-out middle-aged man, his family is in the middle of the road, and he has no money to live, so he wants to sell this painting, but after seeing the painting, I took a photo, and I didn't buy it directly at that time, after consulting some information and asking some people, I finally determined that this landscape painting has the taste of Dong Qichang, and it is likely to be genuine, so I bought it, what, is there something wrong with Boss Du." The middle-aged fat man asked with some trepidation on his face.
Seeing the middle-aged fat man like this, Boss Du couldn't help but smile, "Manager Zhou, is there anything else you haven't said, you must have found someone else to identify this painting." β
The middle-aged fat man's face changed, "Boss Du, I don't believe in that person's level, he actually said that this painting is a fake, but I spent a million to buy it, and many people said it was genuine at that time." β
"Manager Zhou, you were designed by someone else, and you are complacent that you bought a genuine painting, if this is really Dong Qichang's real work, he will take it directly to the auction house, and the final income will definitely be much more than one million, this is just a fake." Boss Du looked at the middle-aged fat man and shook his head, not knowing whether he sympathized or felt that he deserved it. (To be continued......)
