Chapter 49: Wood Block Carving
Li Tianyun saw that the other party was resolute, and he was slightly moved.
Huo Xuanxuan, who was on the side, saw Li Tianyun's appearance, afraid that he would take the boss's words seriously, so she hurriedly explained: "The domestic market for wood-panel carving is generally about eight or nine hundred thousand. Although this piece is in excellent condition and has a simple shape, the price is still a bit high!"
The booth owner, who was still pretending, changed his face when he heard this, and finally understood that the little girl in front of him was a real expert.
Li Tianyun listened to Huo Xuanxuan's words, but said calmly: "Boss, let's stop playing those imaginary things." To tell you the truth, I do like this painting, so let's do it, 990,000, it's auspicious. ”
The boss pondered for a moment, and the price given by Li Tianyun was indeed not low, so he nodded and said, "Okay! I'll wrap it for you." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a clerk took out the bag of the art student's drawing board from the booth, wrapped the wooden board carving with a layer of flannel, and stuffed it in.
This time, Zhao Hu didn't need Li Tianyun's instructions, he took the initiative to step forward and take the back bag into his hand, he understood his task today, to put it bluntly, he was carrying the bag.
There are many people in the exhibition, and Li Tianyun is not in a hurry to check the strangeness in the woodblock carvings after paying the payment, anyway, he is already the owner of this thing, and he will study it slowly after keeping it for himself.
The three of them continued to stroll, and Huo Xuanxuan, an expert who was familiar with the collection, walked through the remaining areas again.
During this period, Li Tianyun listened to Huo Xuanxuan's suggestion and received a lot of things.
When Li Tianyun came with a net worth of 30 million before, he was still full of confidence, but after shopping for a long time, he deeply realized how deep the water in the collecting world is.
Anything here costs tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands.
The quality is better, and in some years, it is even hundreds of thousands or millions.
It sounds like a lot of 30 million net worth, and such a small half-day effort has already been spent.
Seeing that the balance in his account was getting smaller and smaller, Li Tianyun felt distressed for a while, and at this time, a melodious guzheng song suddenly sounded in the venue-high mountains and flowing water.
Hearing this song, the customers who were still selecting goods in front of each booth put down the objects in their hands and rushed to the center of the venue with excitement.
Looking at the crowd passing by him, Li Tianyun was confused.
Huo Xuanxuan, who was on the side, was also excited, and came up to him and asked, "Boss." The treasure auction has begun, shall we go and have a look?"
Only then did Li Tianyun understand, no wonder this group of people looked like they had been beaten with chicken blood.
By the time the three of them arrived, there was already a crowd of people around the venue in the center of the venue that had been specially prepared for the auction of treasures.
Looking at the black crowd in front of him, Li Tianyun looked helpless.
This is to see the excitement, this is simply to look at people.
They stood in the outermost circle of the crowd, and the middle treasure stand was barely visible.
When he was depressed, Li Tianyun inadvertently saw the carved painting of the wooden board on Zhao Hu's back, and his heart moved, and he had an idea.
"Zhao Hu, you take the bag down. ”
"Huh, what's wrong?" Zhao Hu didn't know what Li Tianyun wanted to do, but he still put down his backpack as he commanded.
The wide backpack was propped up by the wooden planks inside, Li Tianyun reached out and held both sides of the backpack, and then motioned for Zhao Hu to carry the other two sides.
The two of them lifted the wooden board carving, and Huo Xuanxuan on the side immediately understood what Li Tianyun meant, and patted the shoulder of the person in front of him, "Please let me go, we are sending appraisal products to the exhibition." ”
The person in front turned his head and saw that Huo Xuanxuan was wearing a decent professional attire, and without the slightest suspicion, he directly turned sideways and got out of the way.
The three of them went all the way unimpeded and went directly to the innermost.
At this time, accompanied by the melodious guzheng tune, a good-looking professional host walked up to the treasure appreciation platform, greeting the audience with a smile while looking at the information folder in his hand.
"Welcome to the 11th International Collectibles Exhibition Conference in Hanghai City. ”
"The auction session of this conference is about to begin. ”
"Here are the experts in charge of treasure appreciation, they are ......"
The beautiful host's words paused slightly, and then shouted in a high-pitched voice.
"He is currently a researcher of the National Museum Research Institute, a researcher of historical relics of the Ming and Qing dynasties, an expert in calligraphy and painting, and a teacher of Fang Wanhe!"
"He is currently a doctoral supervisor of the Department of Archaeology of Jinghua University, vice president of the China Collection Appraisal Association, a famous educator, a jade identification expert, and a teacher of the He nationality!"
"Ms. Pham Minh Hui, a famous historian, an expert in cultural relics identification, and the deputy director of the National Academy of History!"
"Deputy Director of the Huaxia Museum, a famous scholar, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, a bronze identification expert, Mr. Qian Situ!"
“......”
Every time the host pronounced a name, the audience burst into warm applause.
These people are all famous figures in the collecting world, and it is rare for everyone to see them in normal times, but they gather together at this time, so that everyone can't help but get excited.
After the opening remarks, everyone applauded like thunder, and the beautiful host was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.
"Here's our first collection of the day. ”
After speaking, a middle-aged woman dressed in ordinary clothes, holding a rectangular brocade box in her hand, walked up to the treasure platform.
She carefully placed the brocade box in her hand on the booth covered with white flannel, and under the expectant gaze of everyone, she lifted the buckle of the box and took out a Buddha statue from it.
This bronze Buddha statue is handsome, delicate and charming.
The host looked through the folder in his hand and said to everyone with a smile: "Our first treasure holder today is from Xianglin Province, let her get to know you first." ”
After speaking, she handed the microphone to the middle-aged woman who had just walked on stage.
The middle-aged woman smiled shyly, then began to introduce herself.
"Hello everyone, my surname is Wang. What I'm bringing with me today is a Buddha statue. ”
When the host heard this, he then asked, "It seems that you believe in Buddha fate very much, can you tell us about the origin of this Buddha statue?"
Ms. Wang scratched her head a little nervously, "A few years ago, I went to a friend's house to play, and I saw this Buddha statue when I passed by the antique market. ”
"At that time, there was everything on the stall, but I fell in love with this Buddha statue at a glance. Later, a friend who knew a little bit looked at it and said it was good, so he suggested that I come to our exhibition and find experts to identify it on the spot. ”
The surrounding audience couldn't help but whisper when they heard this, and the restrained appearance of Ms. Wang on the stage was obviously an outsider.
Expert Fan, who was sitting in the expert group, smiled meaningfully: "How much did you spend on it at that time?"
Ms. Wang recalled for a long time, and then said a little embarrassed: "The time is too long, I can't remember clearly." It seems like a few thousand. ”
