This time, Chen Wenzhe had learned a lot. The stall owner’s family must have produced senior talents in historical research.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to make detailed notes on many things in the photos.
However, this is also appropriate. If his family had such a large number of treasures from a hundred years ago, would future generations want to study it?
With the right conditions and a spirit of seeking knowledge, it is normal to gain something.
Turning to the end, Chen Wenzhe saw a lot of treasures this time. It can also be said that every thing in the photo, taken alone, is a rare treasure.
No matter which museum it is placed in, it can be regarded as a valuable collection.
It is more intriguing to have so many treasures gathered together and delivered to him.
"Why choose me?" Chen Wenzhe looked at the stall owner.
At this point, he didn't introduce himself in detail, so Chen Wenzhe still doesn't know his name or where he comes from.
"Our family believes in you. After all, you have cooperated with the country and excavated several ancient cellars!"
The first 185 million yuan was hammered down, and 212.75 million yuan was sold, setting a record for bronze auctions in Xiaolu, China, which has never been surpassed so far.
Not yet. Each of my second-class ones is worth more than $700,000.
How much are these fine bronze tripods worth? Which bronze tripods are more valuable?
Things from the Ming Dynasty onwards must have been passed down in an unorganized manner and are always in the hands of players, and cannot be auctioned off.
The unearthed bells of Zeng Houyi are the most broken and smallest set of bronze bells ever found.
However, is it worth spending tens of billions to buy that batch of cultural relics? Is it too much or too little?
A bronze tripod from the late Western Zhou Dynasty had a starting price of 8 million and was sold for 15 million.
Since the archaeological excavation of the Haihunhou Tomb in 2011, a total of more than 10,000 pieces (sets) of various precious cultural relics have been unearthed;
A piece from the Western Zhou Dynasty was sold for 1.5742 million yuan in 1700, and a bronze tripod from the late Western Zhou Dynasty was sold for 1.5 million yuan in 18 years.
Each person spends one million per year, which is over 800 million a year. If I pay 10 billion for our family fund, the annual return will be 8%. It should be difficult.
Obviously, those bronzes that have flowed into the market cannot be compared with the batch that Chen Wenzhe is seeing now.
Let’s talk about some special bronze tripods first. Domestic laws allow the free sale and purchase of antiques before the Ming Dynasty.
"Look at it and tell me a price. Our family doesn't want to split up this batch of treasures, nor do we want to sell it to some ordinary collectors, even the richest individual collectors. In the end, we chose you. As long as the prices are similar, we will agree to the transaction.
.”
Among them, as few as 480 pieces of gold were unearthed, which is the smallest number in the archaeological history of our country. On July 16, 2017, at the Xire auction, the Western Zhou bronze ware Xijiapan was auctioned for 120 million yuan.
It is certain that the small tomb has not been robbed. Perhaps the number of bronzes unearthed from one small tomb can reach up to 1,000 pieces. The total number of burial objects may exceed 10,000 pieces.
For example, a bronze tripod with snake patterns in the Spring and Autumn Period had a starting price of 6 million, and the first 13 million was sold. This was in 17 years.
Those are considered abnormal prices, even high prices.
That's a legend. For example, the tomb of Zeng Houyi, which you are familiar with, was the tomb of Zeng Houyi, the king of the Zhou royal family in the early Warring States period. A total of various types of funerary objects were unearthed.
The bronze ritual vessels unearthed from Zeng Yiye's tomb are the smallest and most complete types of bronze vessels unearthed in our country in history.
Of course, it doesn't matter whether they are common or not. In recent years, a lot of bronze tripods with dragon patterns have been sold.
Among them, tens of thousands of cultural relics represented by chimes have shocked the world with their brilliant achievements in culture, art, science and technology.
It's definitely a real comparison, it has to be compared with bronzes of the Xi Jiapan level.
Even if we count eighty pieces, those tripods and Gui are all without inscriptions, so how much do they cost?
In addition, chariots, horses, weapons, and musical instruments also accounted for a smaller number.
Yi Yeyu could easily find 70 to 70 bronze vessels that were comparable to Xi Jiapan in the photo album.
Chen Wenzhe was even more embarrassed. Interplanting only feeds 800 people, which is actually difficult.
The Tomb of Haihunhou is the tomb of Liu He, Haihunhou of the Western Han Dynasty. It is the smallest, worst-preserved, and richest tomb of the Han Dynasty marquises discovered in China.
However, nowadays, fewer and fewer people are interested in playing with antiques, which are usually unique antiques that are unique to your country.
You should know that the tomb of Marquis Yi of Zeng is a special case. Like the tomb of Marquis Haihun, there are very few burial objects.
You know, the eyeball economy is not the most developed now.
For example, a bronze tripod from the Spring and Autumn Period is of course a special thing, not a bronze tripod. The transaction price was 1.2201 million, and the transaction date was 18 years.
"You want too little money. You only need a relatively small sum of money to use as family funds. By the way, all the people in your family are over 800 people. That's a hundred teenagers."
As long as the population that comes up is left with no support for the elderly and no education for the young, it will not work.”
Compared with other countries, the price of domestic bronzes is still very high.
And how many bronzes of that level can be found in the album?
"How are you going to trade?"
Yi Yeyu calculated it silently, why couldn't he have a thousand pieces?
The small number and the small number of categories are the highest among Han tomb archeology in your country;
There are many bronzes that have not been passed down in an orderly manner. They were basically developed by "Tufuzi". There must be some way to make it very safe to touch them.
In particular, it can reach 800,000 to 100,000 US dollars. When converted into RMB, the price is not even 7 million or less.
Except for the special products mentioned later, the price of a slightly damaged item will be several times higher.
A total of 2,000 to 8,000 pieces of bronze ware came from seven or eight small tombs or from the ruins of an ancient city. How many bronze ware are there?
Chen Wenzhe was a little speechless. He came prepared!
The price of that batch is worth at most seven to seven billion.
The bronzes of that period are of little collection value and have very little archaeological value.
A bronze tripod from the Spring and Autumn Period was sold for 1,320,100 yuan in 2017.
A bronze tripod from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty was sold for 1,173,200 in 1717. Those prices are very high.
In fact, mine is not like a copper carriage. If the price of one exceeds 100 million, there is a way. That kind of thing is too eye-catching.
Chen Wenzhe is a little embarrassed. These bronzes are priceless treasures. It is really difficult for me to bid.
For example, bronze ware is not a very unknown cultural relic. Generally, it is the bronze ware from the Western Zhou Dynasty, which is very unknown.
So the batch of bronzes that Chen Wenzhe saw, including the tripod, Gui, Zongyi, etc., couldn't be compared with Xi Jiapan?
Although I did not count the number of cultural relics in detail just now, the number of tripods and guis alone should exceed eighty.
So when you calculate it, it's really a small number, because Yi Yeyu is very empathetic.
