Chapter 45 Antiques
Chapter 44, Antiques
When I arrived at the fourth floor, the auction was ready. This auction was held by the Tang family. The Tang family not only engages in jade business, but more than half of the jade and gold shops in Yangping City are owned by the Tang family. The Tang family also has antiques, calligraphy and paintings and other businesses. Now the price of gold, silver and jade is relatively transparent, and it is rare to see good jadeware at first sight. The profit is far less high than that of antiques at auction. After all, antique calligraphy and paintings all depend on their strength and there is a lot of profit margins.
Tang Lin led a few people to the private room, and there were several people sitting in the private room.
There was a fat bear who was familiar to Ye Chen, and a young man who Ye Chen didn't know each other. In addition, there was an old man wearing the Tang family. He held two walnuts in his hand, which looked quite wise, but the arrogance in his eyes could not be concealed.
When Ye Chen saw the old man, he felt a familiar feeling and his heart moved slightly. He must have seen it on a treasure appraisal program.
Seeing this, Tang Lin quickly introduced
"This is Mr. Xiong from Emperor Valley Entertainment City, this is Mr. Wang from Jiangbei, and Master Wang, and the famous master of treasure and antique identification."
Wang Shao nodded slightly. He was not very familiar with Ye Chen, but since he was in the same circle as Tang Lin and others, he must be one of the eldest sons. His eyes were concentrated on Lin Yurou. The Lin family was the real boss of Jiangnan Province. As the granddaughter of the Lin family, Lin Yurou is naturally the one who is competing for the eldest sons from all sides. If he is lucky enough to be favored by beauty, the family behind them can all rise to a higher level.
As soon as Fatty Xiong saw Ye Chen coming in, his face immediately became gloomy. When he remembered the encounter that night, he was even more shocked. However, he thought that this was on his territory, so he didn't look much afraid. Instead, he snorted heavily and turned his head elsewhere.
Ye Chen ignored him and found a seat to sit down. Tang Lin quickly introduced him. After a while, he realized the true identities of the three people in front of him.
It turns out that although Fatty Xiong is the young master of Digu Entertainment City, his father is actually the leader of the Qingsnake Gang, and the young master in white clothes. He is from the Wang family in Jiangbei. However, he is not the direct descendant of the Wang family. He is also the master of Master Wang, a famous appraisal master. He was invited by Mr. Wang and Fat Xiong. He has participated in well-known treasure appraisal programs in China many times.
While Ye Chen was sitting down, Wu Xiaotian had already taken out a calligraphy and handed it over to ask Mr. Wang to appraise it.
Mr. Wang took the calligraphy and painting, nodded and praised while watching it.
"This calligraphy is written by Ouyang Tong in the Tang Dynasty. Ouyang Tong is also a master of calligraphy. Although his achievements are not as good as his father Ouyang Xun, this calligraphy is his work in his later years and is of great value. Mr. Wu, why don't you auction this painting? How about selling it to me?"
Wu Xiaotian was delighted and smiled and said, "Old Wang, I don't plan to sell this painting, I'm going to keep it for myself."
Wang Laozheng laughed and scolded
"You little guy probably made me envious."
Seeing this, the other people also took out their antiques and asked Mr. Wang to identify them one by one.
Mr. Wang has a profound attainment in antiques. He answered everyone's doubts in a few words. Everyone nodded repeatedly and admired Mr. Wang even more. Mr. Wang's face was full of light. This Mr. Wang was invited by him.
Fatty Bear also took out a flower and bird painting from behind, and the painting turned yellow. It looked like a thing of old age. It should be a freehand work from the Song Dynasty. He said
"Old Wang, this painting has been identified by Master He Xianwang and Master He, and is a modern imitation. I have some doubts below. Please take a look at it for me."
"He Xianwang? Mr. He's attainments are no different from me. Since he said it was a imitation, it should be an imitation," Mr. Wang said with a smile.
Fat bear pointed to a piece of ink on the lower right foot of the flower and bird painting, and said
"Master He said that the ink is very clean and should have been newly painted in modern times. Apart from that, there is no other flaw in this painting. Please let Mr. Wang take a look for me."
Mr. Wang took the painting and carefully Duanxiang for a long time before saying, "Yes, the only flaw in this painting is in this seal, and the imitation technique is extremely clever enough to be fake and real. If you don't have a certain experience in antiques, you can't see it at all."
"Although it is a fake, it should be worth a few thousand yuan, which is good to use as a warning."
Fat Bear nodded and said
"I discovered this painting last year on an antique street. I spent 600,000 yuan. I thought I had a good vision, but it seemed that I was still out of sight. But it was only a few hundred thousand yuan, so I just thought it was a lesson."
Although 600,000 is not much for him, he lost face in front of the eldest son, which made his face look a little unfair. The authentic one that Wu Xiaotian took out just now, and his one was a fake one, which shows that there is something wrong with his vision.
Thinking of this, he took the flower and bird painting and was about to tear it in half.
Ye Chen said: "Wait a minute, can you show me this painting?"
A sneer flashed across the fat man Xiong's face and said, "What? Mr. Ye is also interested in antiques. He is a poor man and wants to learn to play with antiques?"
These young men are supported by their families and have countless industries. Ye Chen is just a student and cannot compare with them at all. He is just pretending to be forcibly.
"It's okay, antiques are not distinguished from the high and low, but the competition is just for the strength of eyesight," said Wang Lao smiled, but there was also a look of contempt in his eyes. Could something he and Master He identify at the same time make mistakes?
Fatty Xiong was stunned and let go. Everyone present had a status. If Ye Chen was embarrassed, he would appear to be petty.
Ye Chen followed the flower and bird painting and observed it repeatedly for a while, and was a little confused. He just saw a faint spiritual energy flashing in this painting. Generally speaking, things that really have ages, especially things in ancient times, will contain a trace of spiritual energy. As long as there is spiritual energy, it must be an antique. Only he holds this painting in his heart, and he can't sense the existence of spiritual energy.
But the spiritual energy just now was real. Ye Chen couldn't think of the reason for the time being, so he said.
“How does this painting sell me?”
Fat Bear, he immediately looked at him like a fool, and sneered
"If you like it, I will sell you. I bought it for 600,000 yuan. How about selling it for 100,000 yuan? But can you afford it?"
He knew Ye Chen's background very clearly. He was just an ordinary student and had a good relationship with Tang Lin, so he took him out to see the world. How could he afford it?
He expected Ye Chen could not afford 100,000 at all, but Ye Chen said
"One hundred thousand is only one hundred thousand, transfer the money"
Fatty Xiong was stunned and reported his account. Ye Chen took out his cell phone and transferred it to 100,000 yuan.
Fatty Xiong and Young Master Wang both looked at it like idiots. They spent 100,000 yuan to buy fakes. This silly boy is probably unprecedented.
"The rustic bull is the rustic bull. Your dad wants to make most of his life for 100,000 yuan." Wang Shao couldn't help but sneer.
Ye Chen frowned, a little unhappy.
Tang Lin knew that Ye Chen and Hao Xiaotian and Miss Lin had some relationship, but they didn't have any industry. It should be painful to take out so much money. He asked in a low voice.
"Xiao Yezi, is there any mystery in this painting?"
Yoona also whispered beside her
"Ye Chen, why are you buying a fake one?"
