Chapter 2 Huge profits
The moment he saw the thermos cup, the shopkeeper Li's eyes straightened, and his expression was almost drooling, so he stared at it in a daze for more than ten seconds before he spoke: "It's actually a transparent crystal cup, it's so big, with two layers inside and outside, it's really ingenious!" ”
Zhang Yang smiled secretly in his heart, it was just a glass of more than a dozen yuan, and it was actually regarded as a crystal cup, it seems that the glass thing was really profitable in ancient times!
Shopkeeper Li, who has been in business for a long time, couldn't keep his calm, and said in a somewhat hurried tone: "How much money does this brother want to be?" Such a treasure is really something that Li can't put down. ”
Zhang Yang bowed his head and was silent, constantly calculating in his heart. Instead of exchanging money, it is better to exchange antique calligraphy and paintings directly at this pawn shop, which is both convenient and efficient.
Zhang Yang didn't know, Shopkeeper Li also secretly calculated in his heart: Seeing that this person is very raw, it is estimated that he is not a local, if he can trade smoothly, it is fine, if not, even if he buys a murderer, he will take this treasure!
Zhang Yang had a plan in his heart, and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Li, the value of this thing must be clear to you, money means little to me, why don't we barter, you can use celebrity calligraphy and paintings, antiques from the previous dynasty, and even expensive furniture to exchange with me, how about it?" ”
Shopkeeper Li was moved, if he used money to buy this baby, he would still have a lot of financial pressure, but his pawn shop really has no shortage of celebrity calligraphy and paintings and antiques from the previous dynasty, and there are a lot of precious furniture.
But as a qualified businessman, Shopkeeper Li naturally wants to test whether there is still room to reduce costs.
Li shopkeeper sneered, said: "Haizhou is not as good as Bianliang, we have very few literati here, celebrity calligraphy and painting are naturally rare, but some time ago, I received a pair of Mi Fu's handscrolls in Runzhou (now Zhenjiang), I don't know if I can get into the eyes of my brother." ”
Mi Fu two words into the ear, Zhang Yang obvious look stunned, Mi Fu's name is like thunder, he also copied when he was in school.
"Take it out and have a look." Zhang Yang was a little impatient.
Li shopkeeper saw Zhang Yang's expression, and thought that Zhang Yang was a person who loved to be vassal, so he eagerly asked the guy who was waiting outside the door to take Mi Fu's hand scroll.
After a while, the guy trotted in with a wooden box, and the shopkeeper Li put on white gloves and carefully took out the tightly wrapped hand scroll.
Zhang Yang did the same, put on white gloves, carefully spread out the long scroll, and his eyes widened. However, where does he recognize the truth of this word, but look at the dense stamps on it, it should not be fake, and Mi Fu is only a few decades away from this era, there is no need to fake.
Seeing the smiling face of the shopkeeper Li, Zhang Yang felt that he should have suffered a loss, because although Mi Fu was very famous in later generations, but his influence in this era was limited, the reason was naturally that there were too many cattle in the Northern Song Dynasty...
Zhang Yang pretended to groan and said, "This seems to be a bit of a loss!" Mi Fu is only a few decades ago, and his word value is limited. ”
Shopkeeper Li pursed his lips and said secretly in his heart: I don't know who showed a face that took a big advantage just now, and now he actually has the face to say that he has suffered a loss! Profiteer than me.
Shopkeeper Li also thought about these words in his heart, showed a painful expression on his face, and said, "How about adding a set of Huanghuali furniture?" ”
Zhang Yang smiled and said nothing, he didn't believe that a pair of furniture could make Shopkeeper Li's flesh hurt, there must be oil and water in it.
Shopkeeper Li's eyes were a little unkind when he looked at Zhang Yang, if he hadn't been able to catch Zhang Yang's heels, he would have wanted to turn his face and rob it now.
Shopkeeper Li gritted his teeth and said a condition that Zhang Yang couldn't refuse - an official kiln pen wash!
"Good! Shopkeeper Li is really refreshing. Hearing this, Zhang Yang was already satisfied, he happily took the hand of the shopkeeper Li, and laughed: "Happy cooperation, happy cooperation!" ”
After speaking, he beckoned the coachman outside to come in and prepare to move the furniture, Li shopkeeper is also very happy, in his opinion, the official kiln pen wash is indeed very rare, but it is definitely not as rare as the crystal cup in front of him, this business is done, he will definitely be able to double his value.
There is not much furniture, the coachman quickly finished moving, Li shopkeeper kindly sent Zhang Yang out of the door, before leaving, Zhang Yang took the hand of Li shopkeeper, and said: "Li shopkeeper, please pay more attention to celebrity calligraphy and painting, antique porcelain, we can deepen cooperation in the future." ”
After listening to Zhang Yang's words, Shopkeeper Li smiled even more, and said secretly: Lao Tzu is waiting for your words!
Shopkeeper Li thought about it, and felt that he still had to remind Zhang Yang, pulled Zhang Yang aside, and whispered: "Brother Zhang, after all, the things in this official kiln are still taboo, don't publicize it, in case it is remembered by someone with a heart, it is inevitable that it will be ruined and eliminated." ”
Zhang Yang nodded to show that he understood, he took this thing back to modern times for money, so naturally there was no taboo.
Subsequently, Zhang Yang rented a small courtyard in the name of the coachman, stuffed the coachman with a penny, and moved all the furniture into the courtyard in the gratitude of the other party.
Looking at the precious furniture in the courtyard, as well as the pen washing calligraphy and painting in his arms, Zhang Yang's heart was surging.
"0437, send the yard furniture back to the modern age with me."
"Elector's instructions received."
After the familiar voice sounded, Zhang Yang also returned smoothly. Because the house is relatively small, the furniture collected by Zhang Yang has already filled the entire living room. Fortunately, her wife has returned to her parents' house, otherwise he would have to frighten people by appearing so suddenly.
Carefully put away the calligraphy, painting and pen washing, and Zhang Yang sitting on the sofa still has a feeling of unreality.
Following.
Zhang Yang called his wife to say that he was going to go on a business trip for a few days, and then found a box to send a bunch of furniture to his hometown in the countryside, and then went straight to Hong Kong with the pen wash and Mi Fu's calligraphy and painting.
Subi Fu Auction House is a well-known auction house where Zhang Yang's two treasures are auctioned, and like most sellers, Zhang Yang chooses to hide his information. And the auction house still needs a week to build momentum, so Zhang Yang will stay in Hong Kong to have some sightseeing.
In the past, Zhang Yang was in a small eighteenth-tier county in the interior, and Mo said that an international metropolis like Hong Kong was rarely out of the province, not that he didn't want to, but he really needed to work hard for life.
In just one week, Zhang Yang squandered all his savings, and he also got his wish to live a rich man's addiction.
Just when he spent his money, the Subi Fu auction officially began.
Thanks to the momentum of the previous week, there were a lot of people who came to participate in the auction, not only Hong Kong locals, foreign friends, but also a large number of mainlanders! Zhang Yang couldn't help but sigh, the so-called gold in troubled times and antiques in prosperous times probably mean this.
