Chapter 42: Three hundred and eighty thousand

For a moment, everyone in the room focused their attention on Shopkeeper Lu. For Wang Shizhen's "Xiangzu Notebook", which the three of them called a national treasure, the other people also wanted to know its market.

value.

Qin Xuanbing and Lei Lei were out of curiosity, Xu Wei was naturally jealous and wanted to burn the shabby book with a fire, while Liu Chuan hoped that the more expensive this thing would be, the better. He was also happy to see his brother making money.

As for Zhuang Rui, he feels a little nervous now. Although he just said the nice words, no one will have trouble with money, and no one will think that he has a lot of money, not to mention that Zhuang Rui is just a white-collar worker.

Shopkeeper Lu pondered for a long time, then gently picked up the manuscript and looked through it. After a while, he said: "This "Handbook of Xiangzu's Notes" by Wang Shizhen has been inherited in an orderly manner and has clear classification. It can be determined that it is

There is no doubt that it is authentic. At an auction in Hong Kong last year, a seven-page manuscript of Wang Shizhen's "Preface to the Collected Poems of Cai Gentang" was sold. The transaction price at that time was HK$1.18 million.

"How much? 1.18 million? Is wood more expensive in Hong Kong dollars or RMB? I've never used that thing..."

Before Mr. Lu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Chuan. He had worked hard for several years and only had a net worth of hundreds of thousands. If he hadn't heard it with his own ears, he wouldn't have said anything.

Will believe that this shabby book in front of me is worth millions.

"You kid, stop interrupting and stay alone..."

Mr. Lu glared at Liu Chuan angrily and continued: "The content of Xiaozhuang's manuscript is slightly different from Wang Shizhen's "Xiangzu Notes" published in the past. I believe that it has a better understanding of Wang Shizhen's life and deeds and the social situation at that time.

It will play a great role in the research, and its value is undoubtedly more important than the handwriting of Wang Shizhen's "Preface to the Collection of Poems of Cai Gentang" sold in Hong Kong.

Moreover, the manuscript is accompanied by nine pieces of twenty-one poems written by Wang Shizhen himself. More importantly, each poem has Wang Shizhen's bell seal on it, which is extremely precious. In this way,

These poetry manuscripts can be auctioned individually, and the prices are high.

The market price of Wang Shizhen's handwriting in China is slightly lower than that in the international market. If you two insist on asking me to estimate the price, I think it is more appropriate to price this manuscript at between 3 million and 3.8 million.

.

Of course, if this manuscript is sent to the auction house and entered into the auction process, the price may be more than 4 million, but excluding some publicity expenses and the auction fee collected by the auction house, it is still the same price as what I said.

To some extent, the old man is still sure of this."

"Three.8 million!!!"

After hearing this number from Mr. Lu, Zhuang Rui's mind went crazy, and he didn't hear a single bit of what Mr. Lu said after that. You know, after graduating from university, Zhuang Rui worked hard.

In 2 years, it is only more than 3,000 yuan a month. In one year, it will be more than 30,000 yuan. What is the concept of 3.8 million? It would require Zhuang Rui to work for 120 years without eating or drinking.

Ever since he picked up this manuscript from Liu Chuan's store, Zhuang Rui has always maintained a good mentality. His bottom line for this manuscript at the beginning was that it didn't matter if he lost some money. Anyway, the aura in his eyes was replenished, which was considered a benefit. Later,

After returning home and researching Wang Shizhen's life, Zhuang Rui's idea changed. He estimated that if the manuscript was written by Wang Shizhen, he would not lose money and might even make a small profit.

Zhuang Rui was also surprised when Mr. Lu told the price of Wang Shizhen's handwriting auctioned in Hong Kong just now. However, he felt that the damage to his manuscript was quite severe, so he would be satisfied if he could sell it for three to five hundred thousand yuan.

, and the 150,000 yuan that sold Sanhe Liu Gourd yesterday was at the bottom, so he was not particularly excited. Now when he heard Mr. Lu’s quotation, Zhuang Rui was shocked and felt a little dazed.

"Then three million and eight hundred thousand. This is an auspicious number. Brother Zhuang, let's make a transfer agreement and I will write a check to you right away. What do you think?"

Song Jun's sonorous voice rang out. Most of his collections were calligraphy and painting. He was also familiar with the market prices of such antiques. The price offered by Mr. Lu might be a bit low in the auction house, but

That is to eliminate some expensive publicity expenses and tax. In private transfers, 3.8 million is considered a more suitable price for both the buyer and the seller, and both parties can save a lot of expenses.

Maybe some friends will say, you are not evading taxes, but in many industries, this kind of behavior is common, especially when collectors communicate with each other in the collecting world, this phenomenon is extremely normal.

Because the quality of today’s citizens is not that high yet, the money from private transactions should be reported as tax.

"Xiaozhuang, Xiaozhuang, why are you not satisfied with the price?"

Seeing that Zhuang Rui was silent and did not answer his words, Song Jun shouted twice with a questioning tone.

Zhuang Rui was awakened by Song Jun's words, and replied casually in a daze: "Satisfied, satisfied, but I didn't expect this manuscript to be so precious. I was wondering if I should keep it for myself."

"Don't worry, you can agree to let me go. If you are not satisfied with the price, we can discuss it again..."

When Song Jun heard this, he became a little anxious. It was possible that the matter that was a sure thing was going to fall through the cracks.

"Haha, no, Brother Song, that's what I thought in my heart. If you don't have faith, you won't stand. I will never go back on anything I promised."

Zhuang Rui actually had that thought in his heart, but he was just thinking about it in his mind. Compared with the future appreciation of the manuscript, Zhuang Rui still felt more at ease with 3.8 million in his pocket. As for raising the price, he was completely

He didn't consider it, because when he was working in a pawn shop, he had many contacts with auction houses. He knew that even if the manuscript was sold for five million, excluding the auction house's 15% commission and taxes and other miscellaneous expenses,

What I got in my hands may not be 3.8 million.

"You kid, don't bring something so scary. Brother, I have a bad heart."

Song Jun breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. While joking with Zhuang Rui, he waved to a waiter and asked her to call a man who looked like a manager. He briefly talked about the amount of the transferred manuscript and some matters that needed attention, and then asked her to

That person went to apply for the transfer agreement.

In just ten minutes, the manager returned to the box, holding two printed transfer agreements in his hand, and handed them to Song Jun. Song Jun glanced at them briefly and handed them to Zhuang Rui.

.

Three to five million is nothing in Song Jun's eyes. The reason why he drafted such a transfer agreement is just because of his business habits. This can avoid some troubles in the future. If he didn't bring it up,

Zhuang Rui would never have thought that he would need to sign such a thing.

Zhuang Rui didn't dare to be as casual as Song Jun. He took the agreement and read it carefully. In fact, the agreement was very simple. It was just the content of a piece of paper. After handwriting the transfer items and the amount, both parties signed it, and it was done.

, and if an agreement is signed for antiques, it means that the items have been appraised by the buyer, and the seller does not need to issue any appraisal certificate. After the purchase is made, the buyer is not allowed to ask for any debt.

And some people go to antique shops to buy antiques. If they buy antiques with appraisal certificates and take them back and find that they have been deceived, they can smash the sign of the antique shop. Therefore, the so-called Kangxi antiques sold in antique shops

No one will issue you a certificate of appraisal for things like toothpicks and Qianlong's toilet. This is why most of the items displayed outside in many antique shops are fakes, and the real transactions are all conducted privately.
