Chapter 8 Competitors

From the door of the container to the inside, there are porcelain.

Porcelain in a box.

At a glance, most of the porcelain placed at the door was injured. Either a corner is missing, or there is a crack.

And there are more than a dozen boxes of porcelain inside, which are intact.

Although Zhu Yu is a Chinese, his knowledge of porcelain is limited to ordinary people.

These porcelains don't look like modern ones, they look a bit like ancient porcelain.

But it's a bit big.

If it is ancient porcelain, even if it is defective, such a large amount is a lot of wealth.

Why did the owner of the container abandon the porcelain?

This doesn't make sense!

But no matter what, Zhu Yu wants to give it a try and shoot it!

As soon as the container was opened, several people crowded at the door looked at the porcelain, and immediately turned their eyes to Zhu Yu, and the other Asian woman who had already followed and photographed the first container.

Zhu Yu understood.

After all, porcelain is equivalent to Huaxia.

These people have already regarded themselves and the other woman as serious competitors.

In recent years, because of the large number of overseas antiques repurchased by Chinese people, many overseas people also know that ancient Chinese things are also very valuable.

It turned out that the Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain, which could be won for a dozen or dozens of dollars in the flea market, can not be won for thousands of dollars or tens of thousands of dollars!

Even some people buy things as long as they see people with Chinese faces, and the price immediately rises tenfold or dozens of times.

I feel that the Chinese people are like the wronged head.

Therefore, when the auctioneer offered a reserve price of $300 and Zhu Yu quoted $350, the seven or eight people who participated in the auction immediately pushed the price to $1,100!

Zhu Yu was surprised.

The Asian woman took a closer look at the porcelain and then made the offer:

"Fifteen hundred dollars!"

Zhu Yu thought about it and also made an offer:

"Two thousand dollars!"

He gave up an extra five hundred dollars all of a sudden, just to scare off some competitors.

Sure enough, it worked.

Some auctioneers who didn't know why immediately stopped bidding.

"Two thousand one hundred dollars." But there are two auctioneers who don't plan to give up.

"Two thousand three hundred!"

"Three thousand!" This time, it was the Asian woman who raised the price big.

Zhu Yu was a little surprised, this Asian woman seemed to be determined to get these porcelain.

Zhu Yu looked at these porcelains again, and felt that they were covered with a layer of things, and they were not as bright as ordinary porcelain.

"Three thousand five hundred dollars!" A female voice suddenly rang out.

Zhu Yu turned his head, Joanna!

She walked up to Zhu Yu and whispered:

"Do you like it? If you like it, I'll take a picture of it for you. ”

Zhu Yu was stunned!

What's going on?

Take a picture of yourself?

Are you going to eat soft rice?

That's not going to work!

He patted Joanna lightly on the shoulder and said:

"No, I have money here. And...... These things are still a bit suspicious. ”

The Asian woman offered again:

"Four thousand dollars!"

Joanna listened to Zhu Yu's words and stopped raising the price.

However, the heat has been stirred up by Zhu Yu and the woman, he didn't let Joanna add it, but he still had to shoot it, and there were others who increased the price.

"Four thousand five hundred dollars!"

It turned out to be a fifty dollar increase, but as soon as Zhu Yu and the Asian woman made a move, it was a $500 increase.

Zhu Yu believed that the woman should also see that these porcelains were ancient porcelain.

It's just that this is not an ordinary ancient porcelain, and it is most likely a sea-fishing porcelain.

And there is a lot of porcelain with some damage.

Zhu Yu glanced over and found that there should be about sixty pieces of porcelain, of which about forty pieces were intact.

The point is that these porcelains were not fired in official kilns. The eye of the sky can see the money underneath, and there is no official creation.

Therefore, even if it is Ming and Qing dynasty porcelain, it is likely not particularly valuable.

Therefore, when the value was increased to seven thousand dollars, only Zhu Yu and the woman were quoting.

The woman came over and whispered to Zhu Yu:

"Why kill each other?"

She speaks Mandarin with a flavor of the Central Plains dialect.

Zhu Yu thought about it and gave up.

Although I don't know the price of Hailao porcelain, it is definitely not too valuable.

And they are all compatriots, so let's have a good relationship!

An Asian woman photographed the porcelain.

"Thank you, my name is Helen and this is my business card." The Asian woman handed the business card to Zhu Yu, then glanced at Joanna and said:

"You have a beautiful girlfriend."

After saying that, he turned around and left.

Zhu Yu and Joanna packed the container together.

Joanna asked her own question:

"Why didn't you continue to shoot the container just now? If you don't have enough money, I've got some more. ”

Zhu Yu shook his head and said:

"If you keep shooting, you won't make much money."

He told Joanna about the speculation of Hailao porcelain, and then said:

"Some of these porcelains are damaged. The value of intact is somewhat higher, but it is also limited. I estimate the total value to be about $10,000, and if you go any further, it doesn't make sense. ”

Joanna nodded understandingly, and then turned her attention to the container she had photographed.

Joanna was very satisfied with Zhu Yu's attitude of patiently explaining to herself.

Who doesn't want each other's attention to be on them?

Lifting the cloth and seeing the motorcycle, Joanna exclaimed:

"Harley!"

Zhu Yu doesn't know much about motorcycles.

I've heard of Harley, but I don't know much about its value.

On the contrary, Joanna is very knowledgeable in this area, and gave Zhu Yu popular science:

"This is a Harley-Davidson motorcycle from the 80s. Now count the collectibles, I'll take a look at ......"

Joanna looked closely at the model and parts of the motorcycle, and even tried to start it.

"Well, it's pretty well preserved, and it's estimated to sell for $10,000! I earned it! ”

Joanna couldn't help but turn around and hug Zhu Yu and kiss her:

"My dear, the gambling container, it's really exciting! I'm really lucky! ”

Look at the other things, it's all parts and tools, and it's worth a few hundred dollars.

"I have a friend's dad who collects this, and I can call her." Zhu Yu didn't expect that Joanna even had a channel to sell.

After making the call, Joanna took a few pictures of the past.

"Next, look at your container, I hope there will be a good harvest too!"

Zhu Yu said confidently:

"Yes, your luck will bring me good luck!"

When she entered the container and looked at the old goods and even garbage all over the floor, Joanna was immediately disappointed.

When she saw the safe again, her eyes lit up, and then she saw the safe open, and she was disappointed again.

"It seems that my luck didn't play a role."

Zhu Yu smiled and said:

"Who said that? You're very lucky, and you've brought me good luck, really! ”

"Really?" Joanna was a little incredulous. It's all worthless old goods, which are equivalent to garbage.

Where does the good stuff come from?
