"No, I can't buy this painting!" Pei Yuqin shook his head slightly and gave an answer that surprised Shen Yu.
"Why can't you buy it? Your shop owner doesn't want it herself, so who can blame you? Even if you buy it and resell it to make money, it's because she's blind and you can't blame her!"
Pei Yuqin's attitude was very firm: "If I buy it myself, it won't be good if Mr. Qin finds out. It's better for you to buy it. If you don't have enough money, I can lend it to you and pay it back anytime."
Shen Yu was startled at first, and then said deliberately: "We have only met twice in total. Are you afraid that I will borrow your money and then disappear? You must know that this is not a small amount, but 700,000!"
"I think I'm always very accurate in reading people! If you really run away, I won't ask you for money, but I will worry about it!" Pei Yuqin looked directly at Shen Yu with a pair of beautiful eyes, as if there was a layer of fog in his eyes. Water.
Wrong!
This atmosphere is obviously wrong.
Shen Yu scratched his head and said nothing, but smiled awkwardly.
Pei Yuqin took a step forward and still looked directly at Shen Yu: "Besides, I don't lack these hundreds of thousands. Although I can't touch Gaogu's shares, I get about three million in dividends every year, and there are also more than one hundred in salary and bonuses." million, so I can confidently say that I am a rich person!"
Shen Yu: "..."
Back at the house, Shen Yu told Chen Dashan what had happened, and said that he was willing to buy the "Picture of Fish Playing in Water" for 700,000.
Chen Dashan was naturally very grateful. He held Shen Yu's hand and kept expressing his gratitude.
Shen Yu was actually a little embarrassed, because when he came in and said he wanted to buy a painting, he used his special ability to look at the "Picture of Fish Playing in the Water". The color of the treasure was a dazzling golden light the size of a pebble.
This was the first time Shen Yu saw the golden light. He didn't know whether this dazzling golden light represented the Northern Song Dynasty or the Southern Song Dynasty.
However, judging from the differences between the dark colored light and the light colored light, the dazzling golden light probably represents the Northern Song Dynasty.
The pebble-sized Baoguang Shen Yu was also the first to see it, indicating that the author of this painting is very likely or even 100% sure that it is an authentic work by a famous fish painter in the Northern Song Dynasty.
Does that mean Shen Yu is going to get rich? No!
To be honest, Shen Yu took a small risk by buying this painting.
Because this "Picture of Fish Playing in the Water" contains nothing except the title of the painting and a few unnamed collection seals. Even if Shen Yu knew that it was a Song painting, it would be useless because others did not have special abilities.
To put it bluntly, as long as the buyer does not know the true value of the painting, it is useless for the seller to yell.
Moreover, for many anonymous paintings with excellent painters, 500,000 yuan is considered a high price at auction. In other words, as long as the painting is anonymous, the price of 500,000 yuan is considered a high price.
Don’t anonymous paintings fetch high prices?
Yes, there are quite a few! Some have sold for tens of millions or hundreds of millions of dollars.
For example, the unknown Southern Song Dynasty painting "Han Palace Autumn Picture" was auctioned for a sky-high price of 168 million yuan.
"Song Dynasty's Copy of Guo Zhongshu's Four Hunting Horsemen" also sold for a high price of 79.52 million yuan. After collecting it for several years, it is infinitely close to the 100 million yuan mark.
But the reason why anonymous paintings fetch high prices is not just because of their superb painting skills. The most important thing is because of their orderly inheritance.
This orderly inheritance does not refer to ordinary collectors passing it down for several generations, but refers to the old collections of the Qing Palace.
For example, at the beginning of "Autumn Pictures of the Han Palace" there are seven-character quatrains inscribed by Emperor Qianlong, as well as Yizisun, Emperor Xi of ancient times, Sanxitang fine seals, treasures of Emperor Qianlong, and nearly twenty seals of Emperor Qianlong's collection. p>
There are also some treasures of Emperor Jiaqing.
It was included in "The Continuation of Shiqu Baoji".
"Song Dynasty Copy of Guo Zhongshu's Four Hunting and Riding Pictures" is also recorded in Shiqu Baoji, and it is the first compilation, because it contains the names of He Mengran, the privy envoy and political advisor of the Southern Song Dynasty, the Grand Master of Duanming Palace, and the founding Duke of Dongyang County.
Title and postscript.
As well as "Treasures of Qianlong's Imperial View", "Treasures of Shiqu", "Treasures of Yangxin Hall" and Qianlong's Seals.
"The Treasure of Jiaqing Imperial View" Jiaqing Seal.
"The treasure of Xuantong's imperial examination" is Xuantong's seal.
However, Shen Yu didn't recognize the seals on this "Picture of Fish Playing in the Water" at all. If it were to be auctioned like this, it might be doubled or tripled with good luck, but it was also possible to pay two to three hundred thousand. p>
But Shen Yu bought it after all. Today he earned nearly 4 million yuan. If he comes across a real Song Dynasty painting, he will still buy it even if he spends 1 million more.
Moreover, Shen Yu himself is a person who loves painting, and he has already begun to have a glimpse of painting. He is also working hard to own a personal museum. If he doesn't have the opportunity, that's it. If he doesn't buy it if he has the opportunity, he will regret it for the rest of his life.
I can’t sleep well all year round.
"Brother Shen, let me write you a contract and indicate that it is a collection of paintings that has been circulated in an orderly manner by my Chen family. This will make it easier for you to sell in the future." Chen Dashan said readily.
Shen Yu was also very happy. In fact, when buying and selling antiques, many people, especially sellers, are unwilling to sign any contracts.
They often abide by the rules of the older generation of antique dealers, that is, after the money and goods are cleared and no debt is owed to anyone, the business is considered a success. As for things like signatures and fingerprints, he would rather not sell it than do it.<
/p>
Now that Chen Dashan took the initiative, the next thing would be easier to handle. Pei Yuqin held a lockbox with a ready-made antique transaction contract. After both parties filled it out and pressed their fingerprints, Shen Yu transferred 700,000 to Chen Dashan through online banking.
Then this painting "Playing with Fish in Water" completely belongs to Shen Yu.
"Brother Chen, it's getting late. Let's go back first. If we have time, we will have dinner together and I'll be the host!" It's almost eight o'clock in the evening. Shen Yu has experienced too many things this day, and his body feels...
Very tired.
"Well, Brother Shen, there is something, brother, I, I..."
Shen Yu said goodbye and left, but Chen Dashan suddenly stopped him, looking hesitant and hesitant to speak.
Shen Yuqi said: "What's wrong, Brother Chen, if you have anything to say, just say it."
Chen Dashan glanced at Mr. Chen's bedroom again, "That's what I just told you. Take a look at all the porcelain calligraphy and paintings in this room to see if you still need them.
"I'm really short of money. Although my father still has some money, I can't touch it. My friend has 500,000 to pay back soon, so..."
"Okay, let me help you take a look." Shen Yu is not the kind of person who is very good at saying no. Since Chen Dashan has spoken, it won't waste much time to help him take a look. It's not impossible to buy some good things. If not, just treat it as a favor between friends.
Arriving at the extremely precious rosewood wooden shelf, Shen Yu looked at the more than twenty pieces of porcelain placed on the shelf.
There is a dazzling array of porcelain here, which is simply a copy of the history of Chinese porcelain.
Tang Dynasty celadon, Tang Dynasty white porcelain.
A green bowl from Chai kiln, a three-legged brush wash from Ru kiln, a garlic vase from Guan kiln, a three-legged incense burner from Ge kiln, a moon-white glaze statue from Jun kiln, and a three-leaf cup from Ding kiln are equal to the six names of Chai, Ru, Guan, Ge, Jun, and Ding. All kilns are available.
In addition, porcelain capital celadon, Yuan blue and white pots, Yongle white porcelain, Yongxuan blue and white porcelain, Chenghua doucai, Wanli five colors, Qing three generations of blue and white porcelain, multicolored, pastel, enamel, including Hongxian porcelain, can be said to have everything.
Shen Yu picked up each piece and looked at it, but shook his head slightly, "To be honest, Brother Chen, these porcelains of yours are all mid- to low-end porcelain handicrafts, not even high imitations."
In fact, Shen Yu's words were already polite. In another situation, such as the antique market, he wouldn't even look at it!
If the porcelain on these ancient shelves is real, then let alone hundreds of millions, it is possible that it is worth one billion or two billion.
For example, there are only a few dozen pieces of Ru kiln porcelain in existence today. Not to mention the whole piece, the broken porcelain, cracked and broken pieces can be put on the market for 50, 60, or even 70 to 80 million yuan. , after all, this year a Ru kiln green-glazed sunflower brush was sold for a sky-high price of 208 million yuan.
As for the king of porcelain, the wood-fired kiln, it has never been heard of a complete piece of porcelain extant. If a wood-fired kiln were to be produced, the value of 300 million or 500 million would not be able to reflect its value.
***The author has something to say***
There is only one chapter left today. I have a stomachache after eating spicy food. I can’t sit down or stand up. It hurts even more when I lie down. The weather is getting colder, so everyone should pay attention to their health.
