"Dad, don't worry about cash. Those things are of great use to me and can heal my injuries!"
Although the hidden disease in Ye Tian's body has been removed, his hair has not completely turned black. At this moment, he has to use it to deal with his father, otherwise it will be too troublesome to explain the magic weapon to him.
"Hey, why didn't you tell me earlier?" Hearing his son's words, Ye Dongping jumped up. No matter how important money is, it is not as important as his son's body!
Ye Tian heard the words and said with a smile: "Dad, it's okay. The man named Yu is a businessman. He won't pay too high a price out of anger. I have money here..."
In fact, Ye Tian also regretted a little. He had been too excited just now. If he had calmed down, I am afraid that Yu might not have bought those pieces of jade.
The dispute between the two made the old jade seller take advantage of the situation. What could have been purchased for only eight thousand yuan now cost who knows how much.
However, these items were too precious, and Ye Tian could not control his emotions at that time. If it happened again, Ye Tian would probably still have a dispute with Boss Yu.
As for money, Ye Tian is not worried. He still has a one million card in his hand. At worst, he will spend one million to buy these magic weapons. Anyway, there is a gangster named Tang in Hong Kong. As long as he is willing to sell them
, that old man will come to give you money whenever he is in a hurry——
"Lao Yu, what happened just now?"
This antique shop also has its own circle. Some people who are good friends with Yu Ku on weekdays surround Boss Yu on the other side.
Boss Yu was still angry at this moment, and said angrily: "That little kid doesn't understand the rules, and even adults don't read it. He insists on buying it and snatches it from my hand. You think I can swallow it?"
Is this the tone?"
After hearing what Yu Ju said, someone who also knew Ye Dongping said: "Old Ye is usually quite calm, why is his son so irritable?"
"I wonder if he did it on purpose?" Yu Ku snorted coldly and said, "The person named Ye is following the path of Mr. Ji. Maybe he won't take us seriously!"
"How dare he? How long has he been in Sijiu City?"
"That's right, we have been in this business for more than ten years, and he still wants to squeeze us out?"
"Lao Yu, don't be soft when you look back. Do you still think that we old people are all made of clay?"
As soon as Yu Ku said these words, he aroused public outrage. As the saying goes, enemies are friends who work together, and no one wants to have more than one person snatching food from the bowl. Everyone started making noises one after another.
Seeing that everyone was inspired by him, Yu Ku felt secretly happy. He threw his hands around and said: "Don't worry, everyone, who are we afraid of if we fight for our financial resources? If it turns out that he has something he likes, my brothers will help him."
ah!"
What Yu Ju said about favors should be understood the other way around. He meant that as long as it was an object that Ye Dongping liked, everyone would raise the price to prevent him from taking the photo so smoothly.
But Boss Yu doesn’t know that Boss Ye doesn’t even have a thousand dollars left in his bag now, otherwise he wouldn’t have stood up just looking at those few pieces of jade——
The auction time was set at two o'clock in the afternoon, and it was held in a shed. Although the place was a bit crude, the procedures were very formal. Even the auctioneer had a real auctioneer qualification certificate.
However, the rules of the auction are different from those of the auction house. The prices of the items to be auctioned are all set by the owners. If the price is bid three times, if no one bids, it will be counted as a failed auction.
At around 1:30, the owners who had not yet reached a deal started to pack up the things in front of them. They basically packed them together. They did not have time to sell them one by one.
There are two types of owners who hold auctions. Some do it because their items are relatively rare and no one cares about them. Others do the opposite because their items are too popular and they want to sell them at auction for a high price.
"Everyone, it's time for the auction again. I hope you can buy the items you like. Okay, without further ado, let's start the auction of the items in booth No. 1."
Following the auctioneer's words, a stall owner placed several objects on the table in front of the auctioneer.
The people who come here to sell things are not like those who set up stalls in the antique market. They sell everything from calligraphy and paintings to bronzes. Most of them are simple four or five items, and some are only seven or eight items.
Wearing a pair of white gloves, the auctioneer looked at the objects on the table and said, "This is a three-color horse and three figurines from the Tang Dynasty. The owner bids 200,000 yuan. If you are interested, please
Make an offer!”
As an auctioneer of antique items, especially this kind of auction where there is no prior communication with the auctioneer, you need to have a very deep foundation. If you mention the wrong item, it will be a joke.
"Two hundred and ten thousand!" As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, someone shouted out the price.
"Two hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Three hundred thousand!"
"I'll pay 380,000!"
"I'll pay half a million!"
Many bosses in the market became interested in these Tang Dynasty artifacts and shouted out high prices. In just over a minute, the price of these items soared from 200,000 yuan to 500,000 yuan.
Tang Sancai was the first Chinese art piece to be sought after by international collectors. It sold well abroad and was extremely expensive. In the 1980s, it was sold for tens of millions of dollars.
Although the price of Tang Sancai has dropped in the international market, this item is in very good condition. As long as it can be tinkered with, it can be sold for five million in one hand, and it has to be US dollars.
Therefore, fierce bidding began around these objects in the venue. The owner of the Tang Sancai was laughing from ear to ear. Maybe after selling this item, he could wash his hands of it.
Some people may say, that person's asking price was only 200,000 yuan, but he could buy it for millions if he changed hands. Since the profit of these things is so high, why didn't Mr. Ji take the money and put it up for auction, but just earned a commission?
?
This is where Ji Ran's skill comes in. Taking items from tomb robbers requires taking certain risks, and these people are extremely vigilant. If they sell to you this time, they may not trade with you next time.
Moreover, because the items in the hands of tomb robbers come from erroneous sources, many people will severely lower the prices when collecting these items. Those who actually dig graves and rob tombs to obtain items often make the least money from these items.
Ji Ran did the opposite. While he provided this kind of transaction method to the tomb robbers, he also maximized the interests of the tomb robbers.
As a result, tomb robbers from several surrounding provinces only identified him and would not easily trade with others. In a sense, Mr. Ji also completed his monopoly on this special channel.
Of course, if he encounters something extremely precious, Mr. Ji will also discuss it with the tomb robbers first. Otherwise, wouldn't it be possible that all the massive items in his auction house's annual auction would fall from the sky?
"One million two hundred thousand, Boss Hu bids one million two hundred thousand, do you have any friends who want to bid again?"
"Okay, 1.2 million, deal done, please ask Boss Hu and this friend to go inside and trade!"
With the sound of the hammer, the auctioneer announced that the item taken out by stall owner No. 1 was sold. It is rare to see a high price of more than one million in a place like this.
You must know that even if Tang Sancai is valuable abroad, you must find a way to smuggle it out, which will entail certain risks. And even if it is smuggled out, you can only get a part of the price sold abroad.
So in the end, the money that Boss Hu will get is probably only two to three million, but if something goes wrong in any link, he will lose more than one million.
However, some of the items unearthed from the grave were good and some were bad. The items auctioned by the second owner were somewhat unsatisfactory and were sold for only 30,000 yuan.
The items that those people brought out next were much inferior to those of Tang Sancai. The sellers also had a tacit understanding and stopped raising each other's prices. They auctioned items from seven or eight stalls in succession, and rarely sold for 100,000 yuan.
Above the price.
And not all the items were successfully auctioned. There were three or four items in the owner's booth, but in the end they all failed to be auctioned. Those people could only pack their things angrily, wondering whose tomb they would pay for next time.
Good stuff comes out.
"What we are going to take pictures of below are several pieces of jade. These pieces of jade are six of the twelve zodiac animals. In ancient times, they should have been objects used to worship heaven. The owner has offered 20,000 yuan. Interested friends can make an offer!
"
After waiting for more than an hour, the auction of those magical artifacts finally came, and the auctioneer's voice also started the bidding this time.
"Fifty thousand!" The first person to call out the price was Boss Yu. After calling out the price, Yu Ju glanced provocatively at Ye Tian, who was not far away.
"Sixty thousand!" Ye Tian shouted out his price in a leisurely manner. He knew in his heart that one million was enough to buy these pieces of jade.
"Eighty thousand!" Surprisingly, in addition to Ye Tian and Boss Yu, there was another bidder who had carefully considered the jade items after the dispute between Ye Tian and Yu Ku.
"Twenty thousand!" Ye Tian was not surprised that there was an outsider bidding. He raised his hand and called out another price. This time Ye Tian directly added 40,000.
These pieces of ancient jade are all carved from the finest Hetian seed jade. They have been buried in ancient tombs for a long time and have been corroded by soil, moisture and various minerals. The least one has four kinds of Qin colors. As long as
After playing around with it for a while, it can be sold on the market for thirty or fifty thousand each.
"One hundred and fifty thousand!"
The person bidding this time was Boss Yu, but his expression was no longer as calm as before. As Ye Tian said, Yu Ku is a businessman and he can be angry, but he will never do a loss-making business because of anger.
