Chapter 15 Make up a whole number of 10 million
"Gu Yu wine glass, can you take a look?" a thin-looking old man walked slowly when he heard this.
Ye Lingtian looked at the old man, and saw that the old man was in good spirits, and his gestures revealed an invisible momentum, not like a treacherous and cunning person, so he took out a wine glass from his bag and handed it over.
The old man looked at the wine glass in Ye Lingtian's hand and said kindly, "Hehe, put it on the counter, I'll see it myself." ”
This is the rule of the antique jade shop, things are not in hand, put the object on the table, and everyone takes it to see it themselves, so that even if it is accidentally broken and damaged, it can also distinguish the responsibility.
The old man took out a pair of reading glasses and put them on, and then picked up the wine glass on the counter and looked at it carefully. Just when the old man picked up the wine glass, that kind of focused look made him seem to be suddenly dozens of years younger, and the hands holding the wine glass trembled slightly.
"The color is as white as lamb's white fat, and as bright as a brook in a stream. There is not a trace of flaw, good jade, good jade, rare good jade. The old man couldn't help but praise as he watched.
Holding the wine glass in his hand, he slowly turned it around a few times, sniffed it under his nose for a while, raised his head and looked at Ye Lingtian with a stern expression and asked, "Young man, what is the origin of the wine glass?"
Ye Lingtian knew what the old man meant, because he was afraid of encountering cultural relics from the tomb robbery or stolen goods from unknown sources, so he hurriedly said: "Family heirlooms." Old man, I'll tell you the truth, my family owes a lot of money to others, and the New Year is coming soon, there is really no other way. If you want to accept it, please make a real price. ”
The old man didn't say a word, and continued to play with the wine glass in his hand, his face becoming more and more solemn. After a while, the old man turned to the thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy next to him and said, "Junzi, go and call your grandfather Cheng, just say what I said, and let him come over immediately." Young man, I still need to ask an old fellow to come over and do the appraisal together, let's go inside and wait. ”
The old man's last sentence was naturally said to Ye Lingtian, and with Ye Lingtian's current cultivation, he was not afraid of the old man's deception, so he nodded and acquiesced.
The inner room is not large, only a coffee table and a row of sofas. However, in one corner of the room, there was a safe more than half a person high, presumably used to store valuables.
The young man known as the soldier quickly made Ye Lingtian a cup of tea and went out.
More than ten minutes passed, and an old man in his sixties with a red face pushed the door in and said in a rough voice: "Lao Wang, is there anything good about calling me here in such a hurry?"
The old man called Lao Wang put the wine glass in his hand on the coffee table, and his excitement was overflowing: "Lao Cheng, look at this." ”
The old man with a red face widened his eyes when he saw the wine glass, and his face was full of surprise: "Ancient jade wine glass?
The two old men took magnifying glasses and buried their heads in the side to identify, and after a while, Lao Wang said with a solemn face: "This wine glass is some years old, and I dare not determine the specific age, but judging from the eyes of our brothers, it is also before the Han Dynasty at the latest." As for the jade quality of this wine glass, even the top-quality Hetian mutton fat jade is inferior to it. ”
After a pause, Lao Wang continued: "In this way, if you are not in a hurry, you will go to do an appraisal after the New Year to see which dynasty and which generation it is, so that you can accurately estimate it." If you are in a hurry to sell it, I can only give you an estimate of the ancient jade of the Han Dynasty. ”
Ye Lingtian said without hesitation when he heard this: "I still have to go back to my hometown in a hurry to repay the money, just estimate it according to the Han Dynasty as you said, and sell as much as you can, as long as the price is honest." ”
Ye Lingtian naturally knew in his heart that this wine cup was no less than five thousand years old, and it was a set of wine glasses that he had used in the cultivation realm in his previous life.
Lao Wang hesitated for a moment, and then said with regret: "Jade is a good jade, and it has been a long time, but unfortunately there is only one, and I can only give up to 300,000 at most." ”
Ye Lingtian's heart moved, and he asked, "Is there still such a statement?"
"That's nature. If you put it together, the price is much higher. If it's a set, it's more expensive. "If it is a complete set, its historical research value and collection value will be much higher than the value of jade itself." ”
Ye Lingtian was hesitating whether to take out the rest as well. After all, the purpose of his selling is just to pay off his family's debts, and a wine glass can be sold for 300,000 yuan, which is enough to pay off the money owed. However, if you listen to Lao Wang's meaning, the price is higher, anyway, more money is not a bad thing, to make her mother live better, there will be more places to spend money in the future. ,
Besides, if only one is sold now, the remaining ones will no longer be a whole set, and the price will not be much higher if they are sold in the future.
Sell!
After deciding, Ye Lingtian put his hand into the mountaineering bag and pulled it out one by one. In a few moments, there were seven more of the same wine glasses on the counter, as well as a flask.
"You, you...... Are you not afraid of breaking it?" The two old men's eyes widened, and they were shocked when they saw that Ye Lingtian had casually put such a valuable wine jug and wine glass into an inconspicuous mountaineering bag.
Ye Lingtian smiled awkwardly, scratched his head, and said, "I didn't expect it to be worth so much money, isn't it intact?"
Only Ye Lingtian knew in his heart that he was just making a show when he put his hand into the mountaineering bag for others to see, but in fact, it was all taken out of the Tianyuan Bead.
The two old men didn't bother to ask too much, and carefully examined the eight wine glasses and flasks. After a while, the two discussed, and Lao Wang said solemnly: "This wine glass and jug is indeed a complete set, and the value has doubled a lot." I'll give you 800,000 for a wine glass, and 88 is 6.4 million. Plus this wine jug," Lao Wang thought for a moment, "make up a whole number, a total of 10 million." What do you think, lad?"
"How much?" Ye Lingtian didn't expect the whole set to be sold at such a high price, and he was stunned in his heart.
Seeing Ye Lingtian's expression, Lao Wang thought that the price was too low, and hurriedly explained: "Young man, the main thing is that the two of us old men are not sure in this era, so we are estimated for you according to the ancient jade of the Han Dynasty." ”
Ye Lingtian also reacted, and smiled embarrassedly: "Two old men, I didn't mean that. The price is already high. ”
"Okay, do you want a check, or a transfer?" Seeing that Ye Lingtian agreed, Lao Wang was also very happy, so he asked how to pay.
"Can you really buy them all?" Ye Lingtian was still a little unconvinced, this was 10 million, not 1,000 yuan, an inconspicuous old man could casually throw out 10 million without blinking his eyes.
"Hehe, young man, you can look away," Lao Cheng laughed: "Any small shop in this Pan Jiayuan doesn't have millions of funds in its hands, not to mention this old king, if you take another set, he can eat it, haha!"
