Chapter 280: Thank You, Mr. Zhang (Supplement)
Is there such a sense of ceremony?
Zhang Yang unconsciously took two steps forward, wanting to see what was in the box.
The mystery is revealed, a golden jewelry box about the size of a rice bowl with a lid.
On the top of the box was a golden dragon, the dragon's head slightly raised, just in the position of Gai New.
Pinch the faucet to open the box?
Zhang Yang felt that the people who made this thing were somewhat rebellious.
Around the dragon, there are six jujube-shaped sapphires, which are suspected to be the craftsmanship of the Ming Dynasty.
"Is this a golden silk?" Zhang Yang looked at the small box and asked.
"Yes, Mr. Zhang has a good eye."
"Only a person like you can be the manager of the group's purchasing department!"
Fu Fatzi blew it, but Zhang Yang didn't hear it.
When the lid is opened, I see the weaving lines on the base, this jewelry box is the process of "gold silk + treasure inlay", which is considered to be real.
From the perspective of craftsmanship, it is considered a top-level utensil.
Such a complete box was woven with gold wire, and gemstones were also set on it...... On top of that, there's a golden dragon on top.
It means that as long as this thing is genuine, it must be a special treasure box in the Ming and Qing dynasties and the palace.
Fu Fatzi introduced this jewelry box of gold and silk, and was very excited:
"Mr. Zhang, you don't know, I didn't recognize this thing as Jin Lei Silk at first, I thought it was hollow out."
"That kid quoted me 60,000 yuan, I was stupid at the time, and my heart said, it's been so many years of brotherhood, you slaughter me?"
"But he explained to me the process of tired silk, saying that this is a very magical technology of the ancients, and now only a few people in the country can imitate it, so I understand the preciousness of this thing."
"Just this process, plus its own gold, 60,000 yuan must be worth it, you say?"
Zhang Yang originally had the mentality of listening to the story and didn't want to express his opinion.
But the other party had to ask him one last sentence, didn't he?
When doing the live broadcast, the National Treasure Gang was used to it, and Zhang Yang subconsciously replied:
"That's not really."
Fu Fatzi was stunned.
The lady next to her reacted quickly and asked Zhang Yang:
"Isn't that the gold filament process used?"
"It's a tired wire, but it's silver wire, and then it's plated with a layer of gold."
Zhang Yang sighed helplessly, he finally saw this kind of baby, but he didn't expect that there was no suspense about the fake.
Silver gold plating is very easy to verify, just scratch it and you'll know.
"And the craft of the silk is not as mysterious as you say, and this kind of craft is rarely used now, probably because there are fewer emperors, and flashy things are not welcome."
Fu Fatzi realized it later, his face was incredulous, and he was still asking:
"Am I being scammed? Are you sure? ”
"It's not a big problem, the crooks are already in." Zhang Yang comforted: "Then again, how many years has that person been sentenced? ”
"It's like two and a half years."
"That's enough, he cheated 60,000 yuan and went to prison for two and a half years."
"But he didn't go to jail because he lied to me?" Fu Fatzi looked puzzled.
"Just imagine it, imagine that he was arrested and sent to prison because he lied to you, doesn't it feel much better?"
Fu Fatzi was silent for a while, and finally nodded:
"Thank you, Mr. Zhang, I do feel much better."
"Do you have any questions about this box?"
"Nope." Zhang Yang shook his head, pointed to the first copper right he took out and asked, "How much did you buy this copper right?" ”
"I'll see if the price you're quoting is reasonable."
"Wait a minute, I'll take a look." Fu Fatzi quickly flipped through the ledger: "This one is cheap, only two thousand five." ”
"Two thousand five? Wrap it up for me. ”
"Wrap up? Mr. Zhang, what do you mean ......"
Fu Fatzi was a little puzzled, and the woman next to him quickly kicked him, grabbed the stubble and said:
"Is it okay to wrap it in this silk jewelry box? I think it's just the right size to fit. ”
"Mr. Zhang, you finally came once, this thing should be regarded as our meeting gift to you."
Is it so sensible?
Zhang Yang glanced at the woman appreciatively.
It's a pity that he is not eating and taking cards, and the other party will be mistaken.
He took the initiative to speak: "I appreciate the kindness of the proprietress ......"
"It's not the boss lady, Mr. Zhang, you misunderstood." Fu Fatzi explained: "This is my sister-in-law. ”
"I'm sorry, but what should I call my sister-in-law?"
"Mr. Zhang, just call me Xiao Shi."
"Okay, Miss Shi." Zhang Yang nodded politely: "I understand the kindness of you and Boss Fu, but I actually only plan to ask for this copper right for this box of things." ”
"Huh? And what about the rest? ”
"Of course, you digest it yourself, and some cultural relics that are obviously not collectible, and if you hand them over to the group, they will also rot in the group's warehouse."
"The reimbursement ......"
"I'll pay for this for the group first." Zhang Yang replied: "For the rest, you can find Boss Cheng and their father and son." ”
"This, this, this ......"
Fu Fatzi ripped off his wig a little uncomfortably, revealing his big bald head, and scratched it twice in pain.
Publicity's words made his head itch.
It's not difficult to find Boss Cheng, the question is that the other party is in prison, can he take care of the outside affairs?
"But before, it wasn't like that!" He still wanted to struggle.
"It means that there was a problem with the previous process, so the people who sold your things, and the people who asked you to buy things, all went in."
"You can still enjoy your freedom, it's the tenth wonder of the world."
Zhang Yang's analysis was reasonable, and the other two people present were persuaded by him, and they couldn't refute it at all.
"Then there are five boxes left...... What to do? ”
Ms. Shi is concerned with more practical issues.
Zhang Yang replied to her: "I have to read them one by one to determine whether I will accept them in the end." ”
If he can reach the level of third-level cultural relics, as long as the price does not exceed one million, he can "collect what should be collected".
Getting this answer, Fu and Shi were speechless for a while.
The two thought of a question in unison:
What's the difference between putting something in a store and then buying it as a regular customer?
Zhang Yang's answer was: Of course there is a difference, and it is much cheaper to buy it like this now.
However, he also knows that he can't take advantage of it alone, and he has to give the other party a little sweetness.
"You two don't actually have to worry about losing money, I have a plan that can help you earn a little back."
Zhang Yang took out another business card, and the owner of the business card was auctioneer Ding Qiang.
"These antiques in pharmacies can be put together in a complete set and put up for auction."
"At that time, the Chinese medicine enthusiasts present will definitely spend money to take pictures."
After Ms. Shi finished reading the business card, her beautiful eyes stared at Zhang Yang's face, trying to read through this young-looking director.
What is the origin of this handsome guy?
Zhang Yang's attention was on Fu Fatzi.
The person who talks about this store is still this chubby middle-aged man.
"Mr. Zhang, is this Ding Qiang yours?"
Fu Fatzi was a little unsure and asked.
Zhang Yang replied with a smile:
"It's a partner of the group, and you can rest assured about the auction."
"As the director of the marketing and purchasing department, with my efforts, many auction houses have reached strategic cooperation agreements with the group."
Although Fu Fatzi can't figure it out, Hedong Group sells fakes, why does this purchasing director contact the auction house?
But the business card information in hand is very complete, and you can check it out with a phone call, which is not like a deception.
There was no other choice, he arched his hand at Zhang Yang:
"Then the follow-up will depend on you, Mr. Zhang, to help match the bridge."
……
After giving the fat man an idea, Zhang Yang made an appointment with them to come here at six o'clock tonight to see the remaining five boxes of things.
When the six boxes of things are almost processed, let's talk about continuing to cooperate.
You have to eat the rice one bite at a time, and you can't expect to become a big fat person at one time.
Coming out of the antique shop, Zhang Yang relaxed his waist.
The harvest is quite a lot, and sure enough, in the antique business this year, it is most important to find the right source.
Separated from Xu Jie, who had just fallen out of love, outside the market, he took a taxi back to the hotel.
After resting for just four or five hours, Zhang Yang sat down on the appraisal table again with sleepiness.
But the first treasure that came up made him sober up instantly.
"What a beautiful clock!"
A table clock half a meter high and 30 centimeters wide is quite luxurious in shape and color.
Like a pavilion, there are four gilded copper pillars, and the four sides are inlaid with crystal glass.
The pendulum is inlaid with some broken diamonds, and the dial with Arabic numerals written in the middle is also gilded, with a blue-green color on it, and there should be enamel workmanship.
"Baoyou, is this a family heirloom, or is it from an auction?"
"Family-me-gremp, of course." The middle-aged treasure friend asked Zhang Yang while recording the treasure appraisal process with his mobile phone: "The family said that this treasure was handed down from the Qing Palace at that time, what do you think, teacher?" ”
Zhang Yang glanced at the other party's mobile phone lens and smiled helplessly.
This is a table clock produced in 1895, when the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, where could he afford to make such a luxurious clock.
Baoyou's piece is most likely a Western clock produced in France at that time.
As for when it entered the domestic market, only Baoyou himself knows.
"Your statement, in my opinion, is doubtful at the moment."
"Let's talk about your treasure. How long does this clock last for a single wind? ”
"It should be eight days."
"And how often do you ring the bell?" Zhang Yang continued to ask.
One of the most interesting things about an old-fashioned grandfather clock is that it strikes the hour on the hour.
Although it is not as strange as in the cartoon, a bird sticks out and a strange cry, but the grandfather clock does not ring, which is equivalent to losing the soul.
"It seems like once every half an hour."
"It should be a Western clock in modern France, and the power of eight days is the characteristic of this type of Western clock."
Zhang Yang looked at the entire clock completely, and sure enough, he found the words left by the craftsman on the back.
Pointing to characters that don't look like Chinese or English, he said:
"You can go back and find out what those words mean. If it's the work of a master watchmaker, it's worth a lot of money. ”
"If it's not the work of a master, how much is it worth?" Baoyou asked.
"If you have a conservative valuation, it should be above 60,000."
For the sake of the other party's mobile phone recording all the time, Zhang Yang cut the estimate by 40%.
At this price, buying is picking up leaks, and there is no problem that Baoyou can't sell.
……
It may be that the previous treasure friend recorded the image, and the next treasure friend also asked Zhang Yang if he could record the treasure appreciation process.
"As long as it's not public." Zhang Yang replied calmly.
Someone has videotaped the whole process of treasure appreciation, which may be the treatment that only recognized experts will have.
When he was in Linhai and Yangcheng, he almost never encountered it, but when he arrived in Shenghai, he finally experienced such a feeling.
However, Zhang Yang is used to live broadcasting, and basically he will not say the wrong thing, but there is no pressure.
"I don't publish, I just hide under the covers at night and secretly watch, laughing while watching, is it okay?" Baoyou asked.
"Huh?" Zhang Yang glanced at the other party in horror: "Baoyou, something is wrong with you." ”
If the girl said so, he could still understand, after all, he had makeup every day before work, and he was really handsome.
But a man in his early twenties is a bit of a sassy man when he says that.
"Master Zhang, I am a representative selected by the fan group, and I am here to arrest you offline."
"I don't believe you, look at the barrage."
Baoyou pointed to Zhang Yang's mobile phone that was live broadcasting, and the barrage was:
[Which group of Sao Zero is this, come out and claim it]
[He's really not a sassy zero, this is a group of three rich buddies, giving the anchor the effect of the whole show]
[Don't work hard, can you hurry up and appreciate the treasure]
"The barrage tells you to take out the baby quickly."
Zhang Yang stretched out his right hand and spread his palm.
Baoyou took out a jade pendant from the bag on his chest and put it in Zhang Yang's palm.
"This is it."
"Emerald?"
Zhang Yang looked at the ornament in his hand, which was a piece of jadeite full of cotton, carved into the shape of a cinnamon fish.
The carving is relatively simple, but looking at the traces of carving, it should be handmade.
In the finned part of the fish, there is a hole, and a copper ring is strung in the hole, which is presumably used to hang on the body.
This kind of jade object should have been handed over to Mr. Bai to see, but for the sake of the face of the fans in his live broadcast room, Zhang Yang took the hand and helped Baoyou identify it.
"Name: Emerald Fish Chime"
"Material: Jadeite"
"Production time: 1858 (8th year of Xianfeng)"
"Details: This is a fish chime carved from natural jadeite, which is hung on a chime frame and produces a crisp and pleasant sound when struck, and is a musical instrument used by ancient literati to please themselves."
Is this chime?
Zhang Yang's first reaction was doubt.
He pinched the brass ring on the fish's back and let the jade fish hang naturally.
The whole fish is really horizontal, which is obviously deliberately designed by the carver.
"Baoyou, do you only have this piece of jade?"
"The ancestral jade pendant, this is it. Teacher, what kind of era do you think? ”
"First of all, this is not a jade pendant, nor is it an ornament to hang on the body."
Zhang Yang demonstrated the use of things, asked Baoyou to take the key by himself, and gently tapped the hanging fish chime.
"Got it?"
"Got it." Baoyou nodded: "This thing is a clock, or a wind chime." ”
"Yes, perfectly avoided the correct answer."
Zhang Yang guessed that Baoyou should not know what a chime is, and explained:
"This thing is called a chime, and it should have an exclusive shelf, like a swing shelf, and hang it in the middle."
"The ancients were tired of reading, so they knocked it to let their hearts get a short period of peace."
"Shelf? Wait, teacher, I'll get you a picture. ”
Bao Youyou remembered something, flipped through his phone, and soon showed a photo.
In the pile of old books and newspapers, there is a wooden shelf that looks like a mirror frame, which looks dirty.
What else can this shape be if it's not a chime frame?
"This chime frame is good, looking at the color, it is likely to be a big red sour branch, which is commonly known as old mahogany."
"The old mahogany of the Qing Dynasty, if there are no cracks, this shelf alone can be sold for 50,000 yuan."
"Huh? Baoyou, what's wrong with you? Why do I think your face is a little pale? ”
