"Fifth brother, how can it be possible to do something like picking up a leak? It requires an opportunity." Young Master Tang said.
"Opportunity, opportunity, damn opportunity, tell me how much money have you secretly spent here?" Ye Qun looked at Young Master Tang with a murderous look on his face.
"Also... I don't have much to say..." Young Master Tang seemed to feel guilty and did not dare to look directly into Ye Qun's eyes...
Lao Wu’s acting skills are really strong...
Seeing the emotions and actions displayed by Young Master Tang, Ye Qun was really convinced. Fortunately, his role play was not difficult...
"Not much, how much is it?" Ye Qun said.
"It's less than a million..." Mr. Tang's voice was even lower, but it happened to be able to reach the ears of the man riding the tricycle...
You have over a million, and you still come to this shabby place to pick things up? Is this guy mentally disabled?
The feeling of riding a tricycle is a bit incredible. What a waste of money. If I had one million, I would do nothing but deposit it in the bank. I would get 40,000 to 50,000 yuan in interest every year. The interest alone would be enough for my family to eat and drink for a year.
Finally, I can leave some family property to my children...
However, these two people, dressed in suits and leather shoes, had a few footprints on their polished leather shoes. It was obvious at a glance that they were not on the same level as me as a three-wheeler. Maybe one million would be enough.
Let your family eat and drink for a lifetime, but for them, it is just for entertainment, looking for the so-called "leaks"...
"One million? Well, in this way, you are still a bit restrained. You have two million in pocket money a year, and now it's almost the end of the year. How much do you have left?" Ye Qun said.
"Two million, old man, it's true. This money is not enough to spend. In this world, everything requires money. I haven't gone out much this year, and I still have three or four hundred thousand in my hand. Fifth brother, you still have some money left."
How much?" Young Master Tang asked.
"Me? Don't mention it now. It was almost empty half a month ago. I'm worried about how to celebrate the New Year." Ye Qun frowned...
There were a few people traveling with me nearby. When they heard these words, they originally wanted to complain about "pretending to be struck by lightning", but looking at the attire and demeanor of Young Master Tang and Ye Qun, they all shut their mouths.
I have never eaten pork and never seen pigs run away. How can an ordinary family raise a prodigal child with such a temperament...
The man riding the three-wheeler was even more upset after hearing this. Hearing this, the two brothers have two million in pocket money every year, but he only has one million, and he doesn’t know if he will be able to earn it until he grows old and dies.
arrive……
Same person but different destiny, there is no way, the starting point of birth is low, without a backer, you can only rely on yourself...
"Haha, fifth brother, you really have forgotten why we came here?" Young Master Tang said with a smile.
"Oh, yes, yes, the old man is planning to hold a banquet and wants a batch of exquisite porcelain. If we brothers can handle this, will the old man still treat us badly? Hehe, now we have the money for the New Year...
"Ye Qun laughed.
"You just remembered. You thought I brought you to Liulichang just to pick up leaks. Do you know where the porcelain in the entire capital is the best?" Young Master Tang said with a smile.
"Huh? Where? Is it this?" Ye Qun asked pretending to be confused.
"Of course, this is Liulichang. There are many antique porcelains, commonly known as works of art. They must be beautiful and meet the requirements of the old man. Although they are valuable, as long as the old man is satisfied, how much do we spend, and the old man is not allowed to double the compensation?
"Tang Dashao said.
"What I'm saying is, I saw that you were looking at antiques when you entered Liuli Street. I thought you wanted me to come over and go shopping with you. Now that the old man's matter is settled, I feel relieved." Ye Qun smiled.
road.
The man riding a tricycle next to him trembled when he heard this. He felt that this might be an opportunity for him...
His family's ancestors were specialized in the porcelain business, and they were once a large family. They even made porcelain for Empress Dowager Cixi in the late Qing Dynasty. Later, the war caused the family to decline. After the founding of New China, they resumed their old business.
But not long after the good times, we encountered a special era, and our family was labeled as a capitalist. We paraded around the streets all day long, wrote big-character posters, and were criticized. Many good things in our family were also destroyed...
After ten years of special period, the whole family was ruined and never got up again...
However, there are always advantages to having a big family and a big business. Although a lot of things have been robbed and smashed, the old foundation is still there...
A few years ago, when my parents were still alive, it was okay and someone took on the pressure. However, since my parents died for some reason, I became overwhelmed and almost all the things I could sell at home were sold.
What is left here is a batch of porcelain kept in the basement by his father. It is beautifully made, but for some reason, his father never mentioned it to him when he was alive. He found it recently when he was rummaging for things...
This batch of porcelain is different from what he sold before. The items he sold before were all plum vases, large jars, snuff bottles, teapots and the like. To put it simply, they are ornamental art.
The larger the product, the better it is made, and the more valuable it is.
And now the batch he found in the basement are exquisite, but the problem is that they are all plates, bowls, cups and other daily utensils...
It’s not that daily necessities are not valuable, on the contrary, daily necessities with provenance are also very valuable. Not long ago, at the International Sotheby’s auction house, a Ming Chenghua Doucai Chicken Cup was sold for a sky-high price of 200 million...
…
But those are antiques, not modern porcelain...
And the batch in my car are all modern porcelain...
He doesn't understand antique appraisal, but he knows common sense. The reason why he knows these are modern porcelain is because some of the porcelains are engraved with simplified fonts. Many of them are quotations from Taizu. In simplified characters, he knows that this thing is the founding of the Chinese nation.
It was only introduced later. Traditional Chinese characters were still used in Baodao and Xiangjiang...
And these porcelains are from the same batch at first glance, so there is no way they are antiques...
He doesn't know much about antiques, but he also knows that antiques are about time and history. No matter how good the modern porcelain is, it is nothing more than an artistic product at most. Antiques can sell for millions.
For modern porcelain, it would be nice to give you a few hundred yuan. After all, the productivity is different from before. It is completely mass-produced, resulting in lower costs, and the things are not valuable at all...
I took one of the small bowls before and went to the place where I usually sell porcelain and asked to see if they would accept it. He didn't have any hope at first, but he actually told the person that he would accept it for a hundred yuan. The reason was
He and I are considered old friends, and they say they take care of themselves...
But he didn't believe it if he was a businessman or a traitor. He could only say that maybe the quality of the porcelain his father left behind was really good, and maybe the other party wanted it, and he had set a time for him to go to his house in person in two days.
Pull away...
He didn't understand why the other party wanted this kind of modern porcelain, which wasn't even antique. But since someone wanted it, he was afraid of long nights and dreams, so he might as well just send it to him. With the money he got, he would feel at ease...
I just didn't expect to meet such a pair of strange brothers on the way...
But if you think about it, since they need these plates, bowls, etc., why don't you sell them to them?
And judging by their tone, they are all people who are not short of money. Although the quantity of these porcelains is not small, there are five or six hundred pieces in total, but they only cost 50,000 or 60,000 yuan to the porcelain merchant, and this
The two young men were generous, perhaps giving more. If they gave less, they would not sell it, so it would not be too late to go to the porcelain merchant...
But don't give in to the nonsense that he has promised to sell to the porcelain merchant and cannot sell to other people. This is not a movie or a TV series. Under the pressure of real life, under the pressure of daily necessities, and with several children in the family who are waiting for food, he can
There is no time to care about this, there is only one thing he needs, and that is money!
These days, having money is the last word, anything else is useless...
At this time, Young Master Tang and Ye Qun were still quite nervous. After finishing the foreplay, they were just waiting to see if the guy would not be able to take the bait...
Especially Young Master Tang was even more anxious...
Is modern porcelain valuable? There is no doubt that in the eyes of most people, modern porcelain is not valuable, and even fine-quality porcelain is not as valuable as something crudely made by a private kiln two hundred years ago...
But why did Mr. Tang fall in love with this cart of porcelain?
Of course there is a reason...
It would be too arbitrary to say that modern porcelain is not valuable at all. There are always exceptions. Among modern porcelain, there are also valuable things, and that is Mao porcelain...
The so-called Mao porcelain refers to a general term for a special kind of porcelain. When New China was founded, there was a group of old people in Jingdezhen, the hometown of Chinese porcelain, who had been firing porcelain for a lifetime. In order to thank the founder of the country, they spent more than ten years on it.
Taking time and working together, a batch of special porcelains were fired...
This batch of porcelain is exquisitely made and can be said to be a masterpiece of Chinese porcelain. Some of them are engraved with patterns, and some are engraved with some quotations from the founder of the country. This batch of porcelain is not many, and it was secretly transported to the capital as a tribute and given to the Taizu.
Ancestor.
In order to make this batch of porcelain everlasting and to show the specialness of this batch of porcelain given to Taizu, these old people who have been burning paper and porcelain for a lifetime threw the secret recipe they had worked hard to develop for more than ten years into the fire and burned it to ashes...
As the old people passed away one after another, no one knew the firing method of this batch of porcelain, because the secret recipe, like many secrets, became part of the rolling historical torrent...
The batch of porcelain that was actually fired was called Mao Porcelain, named after the founding ancestor of the country!
Later, part of this batch of porcelain was given as gifts to foreign friends, but most of them disappeared during that special period of ten years...
Young Master Tang didn't know where this young man got the burrs, and there were such a large number of them, but he knew that they were extremely rare, and if he missed it, there wouldn't be this shop in this village...
Who wouldn’t be greedy for such a good thing? Putting it in your own museum would cause a huge sensation...
