Chapter 133 Find a reason to lower the price (continue to ask for a monthly ticket for 400 months)
The figures of the Eight Immortals are generally called the Eight Immortals pattern. Porcelain with the Eight Immortals pattern became popular in the mid-Ming Dynasty, especially during the Jiajing and Wanli dynasties. It was also very popular during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty.
This piece of porcelain has a large shape, bright and soft colors, and delicate and vivid depictions of figures. This kind of porcelain is the pinnacle of porcelain no matter which dynasty or generation it is placed in.
Of course, pastels were created in the late Kangxi period and matured during the Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties.
In other words, this piece of porcelain cannot date back to the Kangxi Dynasty.
This pastel-colored Eight Immortals figure-shaped mouth-washing statue is beautiful in shape and almost flawless. This kind of technique must have come from an official kiln.
Judging from the firing method, it definitely belongs to the mature period, that is to say, it cannot be fired during the Kangxi period.
In this way, there are relatively few eras to choose from. From the character description and color, we can judge that this is probably Yongzheng pastel.
Obviously, this is not a modern work. Chen Wenzhe regarded it as a high imitation and carefully searched for signs of old age, but there were no flaws at all.
If it is porcelain before the Ming Dynasty, he may not be able to see signs of wear, but after the Qing Dynasty, he will definitely be able to see it.
Now that there are no signs of distress, it must be that it is not distressed.
Therefore, even without any identification, Chen Wenzhe could tell that this was a Qing Dynasty Yongzheng official kiln famille rose mouth-washing statue with the figure of the Eight Immortals!
Wu Er actually delivered such an open-door thing to him?
And I chose this time in the evening, which makes sense.
Although he confirmed the item, Chen Wenzhe still wanted to get started.
Because if this thing is right, its value will be too high.
He just touched it and immediately felt his palms heating up. He did not expect this reaction.
It seems that among all the skills he has acquired, only touching gold is the real golden finger, because the more precious something is, the stronger his feeling is.
Thinking of this, Chen Wenzhe looked at Wu Er: "Brother Wu Er..."
"Just call me Brother Wu."
"Brother Wu, can you tell me how this came about?"
"What? Is there a problem?"
Wu Er's expression changed, mainly because he had been rejected too many times recently, and he had a psychological shadow.
It's not easy for Chen Wenzhe either. This thing is so good that he doesn't dare to accept it.
Chen Wenzhe rubbed his brow. He drank a little too much wine and felt a little dizzy.
Seeing Chen Wenzhe's actions, Wu Er showed a hint of joy on his face.
"It's not a big problem. How much does Brother Wu plan to ask for?"
After thinking for a while, Chen Wenzhe still planned to accept it, and if possible, he would offer as low a price as possible.
"I heard that my little brother has great eyesight, so he slapped that old guy from Qingguzhai in the face, so he brought something here for you to see. If you like it, just make a price, and I'll make it if it suits you."
Wu Er is also an old man, so naturally he doesn't want to bid first.
It's a pity that Chen Wenzhe didn't want to bid first. After all, Wu Er was not an ordinary customer.
If you are a tourist, you can do anything, but you must not be polite to these second-rate dealers who specialize in selling antiques.
"Sellers bid, as has been the case since ancient times. You make an offer, and if I think it's suitable, I'll accept it. If it's too high, and I don't think it's suitable, you can go and find another home!"
Wu Er was a little embarrassed. He was not sure what was going on with Chen Wenzhe. What he was most afraid of was that Chen Wenzhe didn't know how to pretend to understand.
If he knows his business, he should be able to see how good his mouth-washing statue is, so that he can raise the price accordingly.
Chen Wenzhe was too young, which made Wu Er a little embarrassed. He was too exaggerated because he was afraid of scaring the young man and that he didn't have that much money.
He said it was too low, but he was not willing to accept it.
This piece of porcelain is really good, but it’s a pity that no one dares to take it over. Is there any justice in this?
Wu Er said cruelly: "Three million. This is a pastel Eight Immortals figure. Such a large-open porcelain is still in such good condition. It is worth at least three million."
Chen Wenzhe rubbed his eyebrows, as if he felt very uncomfortable, but his heart was clear.
Three million, and he also named the porcelain very accurately. Of course, he didn't say some key words.
In fact, it is not difficult to date such an exquisite figure, and it is very easy to identify it even if you have no identification.
It's a pity that Wu Er, who is truly knowledgeable, didn't meet him, so he kept this pastel character until now.
"It's too high, I can't afford it!"
Knowing what kind of porcelain this is, but still daring to avoid the important and take the easy, shows that he has no confidence, so Chen Wenzhe naturally wants to lower the price.
Chen Wenzhe did not forget that when Wu Er came in, he casually put something under his arm. If he was really confident and thought it was a valuable treasure, what would he do?
"Is it high? Not high, this is a pure pastel figure!" Wu Er's voice was obviously much higher.
Through the palm of his hand, Chen Wenzhe saw the surprise on Wu Er's face.
When he lowered the price like this, Wu Er became happy? Did he think he might buy it?
Chen Wenzhe was also happy: "Without the identification, it cannot be accurately dated, which greatly reduces the price of this piece of porcelain."
For these half-hearted people, Chen Wenzhe naturally had his IQ lowered. Now he wants to take advantage of his low IQ to defeat these laymen.
Sure enough, when Chen Wenzhe said this, the corner of Wu Er's mouth twitched. Obviously he did not expect that Chen Wenzhe would say this.
Is it a shortcoming to not have a mark? How can you say that in a porcelain with a large door like this? It’s easy to identify, right?
Wu Er lamented in his heart, was he treating someone unkindly?
No, this bottle should find a good owner.
Finally, someone was willing to take over, and he could only be happy.
You know, when he bought it, he spent a lot of money.
Such beautiful porcelain, with such soft colors, does not look like modern handicrafts.
No one is stupid and would sell such a thing at a low price.
"I made a bid, you can give me a price."
As an old man who works in the antique shop, Wu Er naturally knows how to make business happen.
As a newborn calf, Chen Wenzhe naturally has to show bravery and fearlessness.
But he couldn't bid randomly, because Wu Er couldn't get this thing at too low a price.
In this way, there is a lot of knowledge in bidding.
According to the price of Wu Er's first floor, it must be low. If it is slightly higher, it should be able to meet his expectations.
"Five hundred thousand, even if you don't have enough money, this scene is too chaotic. Look at so many people crowded together, the layout is not good!"
Although the height of this bottle is thirty to forty centimeters, there are eight immortals and all kinds of beautiful clouds crowded on it. Can it not be crowded?
When Chen Wenzhe said this, Wu Er was stunned. Is this also a flaw? Can you use this reason to lower the price?
"I feel like half a million is too high. If it weren't for the fact that it's newly opened today and I can't run into trouble, I wouldn't have paid such a high price."
Squinting his eyes, he carefully observed Wu Er's performance. This guy wasn't too angry?
Is this a price that reaches psychological expectations? Chen Wenzhe feels a little strange.
