After Wen Desi got rid of the gold in this time and space, because the texture was not pure enough, he sold it for almost 270,000 yuan. I found a small smelter, smelted the silver from the new, and cast it into standard 925 industrial silver, which was also sold for 200,000 yuan.

As for the large baskets of porcelain, it is not a way to put them in the hotel room, but there is no way to explain how there are so many things in the room when they are transported away at once, so they have to stay for a few more days and take turns to transport them in suitcases every day.

The porcelain was counted, and there were two hundred pieces in total, most of them were plates of various kinds, but there were also quite a few bowls and vases. Although they knew that this was Clark porcelain, they were all laymen in the field of cultural relics after all.

Wen Desi remembered that he had met a professor Ma at the dinner table in the past, and he taught in the history department of a famous local university, and he also liked to play with antiques and the like, so he was well-known in the collecting world. After flipping through the business card for a while, I found Professor Ma's phone number and made an appointment to have dinner together at noon and talk about something.

"That's right, this is Clark porcelain," Professor Ma looked at the disk in his hand, "typical export porcelain." This porcelain is characterized by wide edges, mostly blue and white porcelain, and on the edge of the mouth of the plate and bowl is painted with a grid and a circular landscape figure with flowers and fruits. ”

Wen Desi made an attitude of being humbled and taught.

"Clark porcelain is divided into Wanli and Kangxi in chronology. You are this Wanli, all the circles outlined in the pattern are pieced together with two brushstrokes, which is a characteristic of porcelain painting in the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. ”

Wen Desi thought that this was obviously the year of the apocalypse.

"Then this porcelain plate is worth a lot?"

"Don't think of money when you think of cultural relics." Professor Ma showed a look of disdain, "The value of cultural relics is mainly their historical and cultural connotations. ”

Saying that, he looked at it over and over again, looking a little in love, and suddenly frowned slightly: "This plate has not faded, it won't be a high imitation, right?" Where did you get that from? ”

Wen Deji thought that I couldn't say that it was a new product from another time and space. "When I went to the countryside to do errands, I saw a villager setting up a stall, and the pattern was very special, so I received a few pieces."

"You notice this very carefully." Professor Ma nodded appreciatively, "Clark porcelain is actually a kind of sample processing product, and the pattern decoration caters to the aesthetic needs of Europeans, and some are directly according to the pattern designed by Europeans." ”

"That should be true?" Wen Deji made a look of eagerness to know the authenticity.

"It should be." Professor Ma pondered for a moment, "However, there are not many such porcelain in China, and most of the goods on the market are fished out of the sea. But the plate was clearly not soaked in water. ”

"If so, how is the market now?"

"Well, the market of ceramics is more complicated, and it has been generally cold recently. However, Clark porcelain is a hot commodity, and the turnover rate is the highest in ceramics, but the value of a single piece is not large, and such a plate can probably sell for three or four thousand. ”

"That's not bad." Wen Deji made a look of pride in finding a bargain.

"It's just that it's a little unclear whether it's true or not," Professor Ma leaned comfortably on the back of his chair, and a subtle smile appeared behind his glasses, "You have this plate, how you look at it, it's just angry." It is said that Clark porcelain is rarely imitated, and I haven't heard of the matter of burying mines. ”

Wen Desi looked anxious: "Professor Ma, do you think this thing is really real?" ”

Professor Ma thought for a while: "That's it, I have a friend who specializes in porcelain collection, and he is an expert in this circle, I'll give you a number, and you can ask him to see it yourself." If it was the real thing, he would have wanted it. ”

The expert introduced by Professor Ma is also surnamed Ma, but he is not related to Professor Ma, and he is a big name in the collection circle. As soon as Wen Dehei's things were taken, he asked for 200 things. Connoisseurs are very skeptical that Wen Desi dug a porcelain cellar in Fujian. Because of this old man, not only is the quality of things excellent, but also the meaning in his words is that things have to be. Ma connoisseurs knew that Clark porcelain was quite easy to sell because of its moderate price. There is a stable supply of goods, which is naturally unwanted. He said that he could continue to bring it if he had the goods.

sold gold, silver and porcelain, and the income from this trip was almost three million yuan. With this money as start-up capital, the Executive Committee began to take further action.

Renting a hotel room is obviously not a good idea. Wen Desi decided to set up a company, and spent 20,000 yuan to go through a full set of procedures, and a trading company was released. Xiao Zishan has been announced by the company that he will "not renew the labor contract", and he is simply in charge of it full-time, and he has the title of administrative manager. Wen Desi also wanted to resign, but there was a lot of work in the company, and the leader was not bad for him, so it was not good to leave, but it was easy to say that he finally said that he would leave in three months. Wang Luobin was much more chic, and he came to Guangzhou with a dictionary, and actually went directly to a small machinery factory to work as a worker, saying that he was "familiar with the craft".

The company has nothing left. Fortunately, Xiao Zishan has been in Guangzhou for many years, and he has a wide range of contacts in the sales industry, and now he has money in his hands, so everything is easy to do. The office rented a business suite in the original hotel, which is a separate unit. There is no need to go through the hall to enter and exit, it is relatively quiet, and there are underground parking spaces, which is very convenient. Xiao Zishan used a small warehouse inside as a wormhole crossing point, and installed a separate security door. In order to adapt to the next step of moving goods in large quantities, he bought a hydraulic trolley.

On the company's car, the executive committee had the first disagreement, Xiao Zishan's opinion was to buy a seven-seat small displacement bus similar to the Chang'an Star. The price is low, there are many people, and it can transport goods, and it also saves fuel. Wang Luobin believes that since it will go to the 17th century, then such a car will not be able to exert its residual heat in that time and space - there is no gasoline in the Ming Dynasty, and the road conditions are not such a small car can run, so he suggested buying a four-wheel drive diesel-powered off-road vehicle - in contrast, diesel alternatives are relatively easy to obtain.

After hours of discussion on the issue, the decision was made on an SUV. The car sales lady was puzzled by the choice of these men, and they turned down the new, more fuel-efficient EFI engine and bought an old Cherokee Jeep: four-wheel drive, manual, diesel-powered, with a self-rescue winch.

With a car and a channel to make money, what do you do next? The three members of the Executive Committee sat at the table in the conference room and discussed the next step.
