Chapter 35: Old Rivers and Lakes
"What?
Ling Yuxin received a call from Wen Yiming, and couldn't help but sigh: "I have been playing antiques for more than ten years, and the number of leaks I have picked up is not as many as you have in a month!
"The Ming Dynasty's royal dragon incense ink!
Ling Yuxin was taken aback, and said urgently: "You come to my house immediately, it just so happens that my dad is coming back from a business trip to meet and talk!"
Wen Yiming hung up the phone, received the address from Ling Yuxin, packed up Long Xiangmo, went out to take a taxi and went straight to Ling's house. On the way, I bought some fruit gifts, after all, it was the first time to come to the door, and it was not strange that there were many people.
The car drove all the way to the western suburbs villa area, where the rich gathered, all villas and high-end communities, and the house price was tens of thousands of square meters.
Wen Yiming got out of the car, entered the villa area through the security guard, and walked inside. The environment is quiet, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, and there is an artificial lake, which is worthy of every inch of land.
"Come on, what kind of gifts to bring!"
Ling Yuxin opened the door, saw the fruit and complained: "My dad has wanted to see you for a long time, and he came back from a business trip today, just to chat, come in." ”
Wen Yiming changed into slippers and followed Ling Yuxin into the house, the nanny took the gift, and the two walked to the hall, and suddenly a voice came from the second floor: "Yiming is here?"
Wen Yiming looked up, Ling Tiancheng, who was in his forties, went downstairs, wearing gold-wire glasses, thin and elegant, and with a graceful demeanor.
He hurriedly stepped forward and said with a smile: "Hello uncle, I am Wen Yiming, please advise!"
"It's all your own family, what's polite!"
Ling Tiancheng walked up to Wen Yiming, looked up and down, and said happily: "For you, I haven't listened to Yu Xin's chatter, what kind of incense wizard, master of picking up leaks, and long-standing admiration of the great name!"
Wen Yiming was a little embarrassed, and said modestly: "The eldest lady is falsely praised, it's not worth mentioning!"
Ling Yuxin heard her father come up and reveal her old background, her pretty face was slightly red, and she said shyly: "Dad, are you going to let the guests stand and talk?"
"Yes, yes!" Ling Tiancheng rarely saw his baby daughter blushing, grabbed Wen Yiming, and laughed: "It's really rude, come, Yiming, please take a seat!"
The three of them sat down, Ling Yuxin began to make tea, Wen Yiming took out the dragon incense ink, handed it to Ling Tiancheng and said, "Uncle, do you give me the palm eye?"
"Huh, this is Long Xiangmo?"
Ling Tiancheng hurriedly took it with both hands, put on gloves, took out a magnifying glass, and carefully used it for identification. The more I watched, the more excited I became, for more than twenty minutes, I looked up and sighed: "Long Xiangmo, worthy of the name!"
He carefully put down the ink ingot and asked, "Picked up the leak?"
Wen Yiming nodded, and briefly said the experience of going to the antique city today, the auction is not only about the real thing, but also the way to come, otherwise it is all trouble.
"Oh, you actually picked up the leak from Fei Fatzi's hand?"
Ling Tiancheng was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and laughed and said: "Amazing, since ancient times, heroes have been born as teenagers, you back waves really beat us front waves to death on the beach!"
Ling Yuxin stared at Wen Yiming with beautiful eyes, and secretly sighed that the other party's eyesight was outstanding, it seemed that he didn't know what kind of character Fei Fat Man was?
"If you let Fei Fatzi know that he is gone, and he walks Baolong Xiangmo alive, then he will not be distressed to death!"
The more Ling Tiancheng thought about it, the amier it became, patted Wen Yiming on the shoulder and said, "One hundred percent treasures, raw goods that haven't appeared in ten years, are they on the auction?"
Wen Yiming nodded and said, "I came this time to trouble my uncle, the incense is too expensive, and there is no way, so I ......"
"Understood!" Ling Tiancheng waved his hand and said in appreciation: "Recently, Yuxin told me what you have done, yesterday I specially tasted a furnace of meditation incense, and I was shocked!"
"Your talent in Xiangdao is extremely high, and with Zhao Lao's guidance, I believe it won't take a few years to shine!
Ling Tiancheng stood up, stretched out his hand, looked at Wen Yiming and said, "In the future, we will be partners, we will be in the same boat, we will be both prosperous and humiliated, how about it?"
Wen Yiming was a little surprised, he didn't expect the other party to be so solemn, he thought about it and stood up, and said with a smile: "Please ask my uncle to take care of me in the future!"
"Good, good, good!"
Ling Tiancheng laughed, very happy, since he tasted Jingxin incense, he knew that this young man was definitely not a thing in the pool!
Although temporarily in Yaxiangju, it has been a cooperative relationship from the beginning, whether it is to pick up the leakage of black Qinan, to reproduce the quiet incense, to today and to pick up the leakage of dragon incense ink, it is all people's ability!
As for Zhao Dacheng, it was also because of his personal relationship that he lived in seclusion here, and now the two sides have become masters and apprentices, and the relationship is irreversible, for this level of incense master, not to mention the little Ling family, in ancient times, it was also the guest of the prince and the general!
Fortunately, Yuxin has the vision to invest in this high-performance stock with unlimited potential in advance, and now to build a good relationship, it will be harmless to the Ling family in the future, so it is natural to pay great attention to it.
Wen Yiming nodded, they are all smart people, and they all take what they need. I am a newcomer and need the connections of the Ling family. The other party is not stupid, long-term cooperation is mutually beneficial, worthy of a big family, with vision and mind.
Ling Tiancheng saw Wen Yiming's light and light expression, and secretly admired his daughter's sharp eyes. Sooner or later, this kind of person will inevitably rise to the top of the sky!
Vulgar things simply cannot maintain the relationship between the two sides for a long time, only by playing the emotional card, mutual benefit and reciprocity can be sustainable, which is a clever means to win people's hearts.
"I remember that four or five years ago, there was an auction of dragon incense ink in the Jiade Study, which was used by the Qing Dynasty, and it seemed that it was not a set, only three pieces. ”
Ling Tiancheng recalled: "At that time, the hammer fell on the scene for more than 1 million, plus a commission of 1.2 million, it seems that it was collected by a famous calligrapher in Beijing. Then there has been no domestic appearance in the past few years, and your set of Ming Dynasty royal weapons is definitely a heavy weapon!"
Ling Yuxin poured tea for her father and Wen Yiming with both hands, and interjected: "It's a pity that the spring auction has just ended, otherwise Long Xiangmo will definitely be able to shine......"
"You can't say that!"
Ling Tiancheng waved his hand and explained to Wen Yiming: "For auction houses, there are three important moments in a year, spring auctions in March and April, autumn auctions in September and October, and the night of Daguan at the end of the year. Most of the annual turnover depends on them. ”
"After several ups and downs, from the popularity of ten years ago, to the current return to rationality, both collectors and us are like experiencing a roller coaster, high and low, extremely exciting!"
"But fortunately, the market has finally returned to rationality in the past two years, and only the truly strong can survive after the big waves. Buyers and sellers reshuffle and reallocate resources, which is also a good thing for Tiancheng. ”
"The Central Plains is a major cultural province, and the atmosphere of collecting has been strong since ancient times, especially the three categories of bronze, jade and porcelain, which are popular investment types every year, especially the sweep of large institutions, and antiques are no longer an industry that ordinary collectors can enter!"
Ling Tiancheng was moved, Tiancheng started for more than ten years, at first relying on Ling Junsheng's connections, and after continuous development, he finally became the leader in the province.
"Dad, I heard that Wenbo will also hold a special session next week?"
Ling Tiancheng frowned, and snorted coldly: "Qian Wenbo, that old guy is still not dead, how can he have the ability to argue with us Tiancheng? It must be the support behind the Kuang clan, just a puppet!"
