Chapter 66: Exactly the Same?

Three canvas bags, two bags of porcelain, one bag of jade, for a total of fifty-six pieces.

Among them, the cheapest is a few pieces of jade carving, a piece tens of thousands of pieces, the most expensive is a Ming Dynasty glaze red cloud dragon pattern double dragon ear bottle, once Sotheby's auctioned a piece of the same style, the reserve price is as high as 100 million and 8 million!

"How far does this have to be a loser, so that I am willing to take out such a good treasure and sell it......" Cui Jianhua said with a painful face.

"Hehe, Mr. Cui, this thing is a treasure in your antique shop, but in the eyes of us laymen, it is really not as good as banknotes." Li Mu said with a smile.

There are so many antiques, of course, there must be a history, Li Mu made up the excuse that it was the collection of a friend's ancestors, and the old man died not long ago, and that friend entrusted him to exchange these things for cash. In fact, this situation is very common in the antique shop, some old people collect things for a lifetime, once the person is gone, the descendants will immediately sell it, so that it attracts countless antique dealers to rob it.

"That's right, alas, now I look at the antiques hot, but there are fewer and fewer people who really understand antiques, how to play, and what to play, and most people are playing with money, not culture......" Cui Jianhua shook his head and sighed.

"Teacher Cui, don't be busy with emotion, hurry up and think of a way to sell this pile of things." Li Mu said with a smile.

"Well, in a hurry to use the money?" Cui Jianhua asked.

"Of course, I am in a hurry to use the money, otherwise I will send it to the auction house." Li Mu said.

"There are too many things, especially these few valuable ones, which are not easy to ......digest," Cui Jianhua said, "Otherwise, I will call a few friends in the circle and let everyone taste it together, and sell it directly if it can be sold, and send it to auction if it is too valuable to sell, how about it?" ”

"Cheng, let's change a little bit first." Li Mu nodded and said, "Teacher Cui, then it's bothering you, you can pick one of these things and keep it for fun, and sell the rest if you can, don't care too much about the price, the key is to be fast." ”

"Hey? Are you really going to give me one? Cui Jianhua said, "But ah, I really let you say it, you dare to send it, I don't dare to ask for it......"

"Haha, don't you have no power in your hands, don't you count as accepting bribes? Just pick it, this thing is not mine, it can't let you work in vain, right? You should just charge a labor fee. Li Mu said with a smile.

These things are really worthless to Li Mu, and there are still a lot of them in the warehouse in the last days. Of course, the batch brought back today is all the collections in a folk museum looted by Yu Zihao and them, almost all of them are true, and the remaining large number of them are scavenged from various households.

In addition to these porcelain, jade, and a bunch of bronzes, calligraphy and paintings and other antiques, Li Mu did not dare to bring back a piece - bronzes are forbidden to trade, and calligraphy and painting are different from porcelain, which is almost impossible to copy.

"You really don't feel distressed? That's okay, I'm not polite to you, I'll keep one for myself when I go back. Cui Jianhua smiled, "If you are really in a hurry to sell, I will help you find someone now, how about it?" ”

"That's a good feeling, hehe." Li Mu couldn't ask for it.

According to Li Mu's plan, at least 180,000 yuan must be raised immediately before it can be carried out, although the batch of things brought back is worth hundreds of millions, but the problem is that it can't be realized, and it is useless.

So Cui Jianhua took out his mobile phone and began to call one after another, everyone only had one sentence: "I have a few good treasures here, I want to see it, come over quickly!" ”

In less than ten minutes, the door was knocked on, and Cui Jianhua opened the gate and no longer closed it, but in half an hour, five or six middle-aged and elderly people came in the courtyard one after another, some in suits and leather shoes, and some in linen Tang costumes, but everyone had a string of beeswax and walnuts in their hands, or a small purple sand pot, and noisily asked Cui Jianhua to hurry up and offer treasures.

"Everyone, there are a lot of things, there are more than 50 pieces, different grades, different categories, some of my level can see accurately, some can't see accurately, call everyone over, one is to let everyone help palm the eye, and then everyone has something to look at, you can also collect it on ......the spot," Cui Jianhua said.

"Don't talk nonsense, what kind of tatters you made, let me glance twice, there's a dinner at noon!" An old man shouted.

"Hehe, so let's get started?" Cui Jianhua said, ran to pick up an antique from the large canvas bag that had been carried into the room, but it was a colorful flower and bird hat bucket from a folk kiln in the middle of the Qing Dynasty.

"Hey, it's kind of interesting," the bearded old man's eyes lit up, and he said, "Old Xu, is Old Xu here?" It's the same one as the one at home......"

Li Mu was stunned for a moment, the first thing he met was the main owner?

"Yes, yes, I look like it, isn't it just a couple?" Another old man shouted.

"I'll call Lao Xu and ask ......"

"Teacher Cui, this thing is in pairs?" Li Mu asked very layman.

Cui Jianhua rolled his eyes and didn't pay attention to it at all. The hat bucket is placed by officials in the past, and it is generally placed in pairs in the living room, which is a practical object, and the value is not too high.

Not long after the phone call came out, I saw an old man walk in slowly, but he also received Cui Jianhua's invitation, but his movements were a little slower, and when he saw the hat bucket, he suddenly shouted in surprise: "Old Cui, when did you bring my hat bucket back?" ”

Cui Jianhua didn't know the bottom of his heart, but when he saw Li Mu's calm face, he replied: "Is it yours, you go back and see if you're there!" ”

Lao Xu hurriedly took out his mobile phone, called his family, and made sure that the hat bucket was still there, so he breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked the family to send the one over quickly.

Everyone was not in a hurry to continue looking at anything else, and after waiting for more than ten minutes, Lao Xu's family sent the hat bucket over, and compared the two with each other, they were all amazed - except for a few worn places on the base, these two hat buckets are a little different, and the other places are almost exactly the same!

"No, if these two are just a pair, then the pattern should be symmetrical, but these two are the same ......," someone said.

"Maybe not a pair, but the same batch, both of which are on the left, so asymmetrical?" Someone speculated.

"That's even more impossible, this kind of hat bucket is rarely painted with the same color, even if it is made in batches, the color should be slightly different, but these two are just like printer prints......"

"Do you suspect it's a high imitation? But if you take a closer look, this fetus, this glaze, this light, which can be imitated? It's a big opener. ”

"Lao Xu, where is the owner? Can I inquire about the legacy? Lao Xu dragged Cui Jianhua and asked.

"It's difficult," Cui Jianhua sighed and said, "The owner has passed away, this is the descendant of the owner, and my friend entrusted my friend to me and asked me to help cash out." You look at it, give the money if you like it, and I will pay it back if you don't like it. ”

"Tsk......" Lao Xu sighed and said, "Come on, you can make a price, and I'll take it back and take a good look at it." ”

"The price, you look at it." Cui Jianhua said.

"The price is not good, in case this is a pair, it is a smooth leg, Lao Xu Ke will make a lot of money, haha." An old man laughed.

Lao Xu rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I got this piece two years ago when it was 90,000, and the current market is about 120,000, I will give 150,000 yuan for this piece, I earned it if I made it into a pair, I don't admit it, can it be done?" ”

"Righteousness, take it!" Cui Jianhua didn't say a word about the deal-Li Mu muttered to him twice just now, at this rate, one piece grinds for more than half an hour, so these dozens of pieces have to be sold out for a few days? Dude is in a hurry to get the money!
