Looking at the huge sum of 2 million that was instantly credited to the account on the screen of his mobile phone, Shen Yu felt mixed feelings in his heart.
This is the largest amount of money he has received in his antique career. He is excited, happy, and excited, but it is also mixed with a little bit of disappointment. Shen Yu himself can’t explain exactly what it feels like.
In comparison, I was not even as happy as when I sold the imitation of Yuan Jiang's "Penglai Wonderland" by an unknown painter from the Qing Dynasty.
You know, that painting only sold for 100,000 yuan, but now it is sold for 2 million yuan, which is twenty times as much as that painting.
Now the average house price in Chuzhou is only 7,000, and those in good locations are only over 8,000.
Two million can buy a large flat of nearly 300 square meters in the four districts of the city.
Shen Yu thought about it for a long time. The reason for his disappointment was that he also liked this ingot of Cheng Mo and was somewhat reluctant to sell it.
But now he is short of money, so hoarding is the only option.
If you can only get in but not get out, it is impossible for your own store to survive. Not to mention you, even some rich people who like to collect cannot be able to only get in and not get out.
Nowadays, a calligraphy and painting by famous people from the Ming and Qing Dynasties can easily cost millions or even tens of millions. How much financial resources do you have to support the hobby of collecting?
Shen Yu's ability to adjust his mentality is very good. In just a few minutes, he suppressed the feeling of disappointment in his heart. Although ancient ink is precious, it is far inferior to calligraphy, painting and calligraphy.
Ink can be reproduced, but the person who used it cannot be resurrected.
This is also the reason why Shen Yu sold the ancient ink and chose to keep Wang Mengduan's "Ink Bamboo and Stone Picture".
Having elders who care about you saves you worry and effort.
Shen Yu didn't have to worry, Li Hanlin thought of all the loopholes in the transaction, and the entire transaction process was completely legal and compliant.
Both parties signed a standardized antique sales contract.
Originally Zheng Congyuan was not willing to go to such trouble. Two million was just a drop in the bucket for him, but with Li Hanlin's insistence, he still wrote his name on the contract.
Li Hanlin also signed as a witness. The amount of this transaction is after tax, and the personal income tax will be paid by the buyer on his behalf.
In other words, Shen Yu's two million yuan is legal income after tax, and the 60,000 yuan personal income tax he needs to pay was paid by Zheng Congyuan.
This is also Zheng Congyuan's way of life. He has spent a lot of money, so why save small money?
Since a good person has done something, he must do it to the end.
Befriending Li Hanlin and Shen Yu has only advantages and no disadvantages for his antique collecting journey. Many people take him as a trap. How could he not see it as a successful businessman?
It's just that Zheng Congyuan can't help it. He likes antiques but has poor eyesight. If he is cheated, he can only knock out his teeth and swallow them alive.
He went back to look for her with great fanfare and made a fuss. He really couldn't afford to lose this person.
All he can do is stop dealing with the people who tricked him, or let his subordinates teach them a lesson.
Although Li Hanlin's temper is a bit stubborn, his character is beyond question. When he is really in doubt about buying antiques, if he goes to the old man for help, a face-loving person like him will definitely not push him out.
What's more, there is Shen Yu, a potential stock, Mr. Shen's only grandson, who may have some unique secret skills in appraising antiques.
Zheng Congyuan has never heard of anyone at this age who can have such advanced antique appraisal skills. If he is given another ten or twenty years, he is afraid that he will be Shen Banzhang again.
It may even be that someone is better than someone who is a child.
If you keep a low profile while he is still not famous, there may be some big rewards in the future. If nothing else, you can save tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of money by saving yourself a few times when buying valuable antiques.
Wouldn’t it be nice to keep the money?
Zheng Congyuan looked at Shen Yu with a meaningful smile on his face.
……
"What's wrong, Xiao Shen? Don't you look very happy?" Mr. Qian walked up to Shen Yu and asked with a smile.
"It's okay, Mr. Qian. I just suddenly saw that the balance in my bank card had changed to so many zeros, and I felt a little uncomfortable." Shen Yu quickly explained that he didn't want people to know that he was reluctant to let go of Gu Mo.
That will only make others look down on you, who only want to get in and not get out. How can such a good thing in the world be possible?
Qian Lao patted Shen Yu on the shoulder: "Just get used to it. This is a reflection of your strength, but one thing is, don't spend the money indiscriminately, use it as capital to run your own business well.
"Believe me, as long as you work steadily and don't think about eating a fat man in one bite, your future achievements will only be higher than those of us old guys!
"You know, when I was your age, I couldn't even tell the difference between overglaze and underglaze colors. I couldn't even tell what the plum vase was called when I was holding it.
"Also, I only found out yesterday that you gave my upright brother the appraisal of the Qingtian Light Frozen Seal. You are indeed a descendant of Mr. Shen. He is not tempted by million-dollar antiques. He insists on this character.< /p>
"My brother's skill in appraising porcelain is not much worse than mine, but he has been poor all his life.
"When you are old, you can only buy a small shop with my help. To buy a house for your grandson, you have to sell the porcelain that you have cherished for decades. If you can become friends with him forever, if you don't have outstanding character, you will not be able to buy it. It's impossible for him to deal with you with his bad temper.
"In the future, when you collect porcelain and you feel unsure, you can go to "Ancient Porcelain House" to find me. If you have any difficulties at hand, you can also say, I don't dare to give you more. Hundreds of thousands is no problem." After that, Mr. Qian said. He handed Shen Yu his business card.
Shen Yu quickly took it with both hands. There was only a phone number on the business card, and Qian Lao's name: Qian Zhengping.
"Thank you, Mr. Qian. I will definitely keep your words in mind." Shen Yu was very moved. Qian always had a cold face and a warm heart. If anyone else were you, I would wish you had spent all your money in a drunken manner.
There are many such people in the antique industry who hate others, laugh at others, and don't see the good of others.
Even if you have no grievances or grudges, many people are not willing to look good on you.
When others hit him, he felt as happy as if he had won five million.
If someone else misses it, they will look envious and jealous.
In the antique industry, there are really not many seniors like Mr. Qian who are willing to support young people.
I looked at the watch on my hand and saw that it was already 12:35. The treasure appraisal meeting in the morning should not continue.
We must have something to eat, and then everyone should take a rest. It is estimated that we will continue around three in the afternoon. After all, Mr. Li and Mr. Qian are old, and they will definitely not be able to persist without eating or resting.
Sure enough, just as Shen Yu guessed, Li Hanlin clapped his hands twice and shouted loudly: "Okay, everyone hasn't rested all morning. I think everyone is tired and hungry now, right?
"In this way, Lao Li from Zuixianju has prepared a table of good meals, all of which are the specialty dishes of his chef. Lao Li even cooked two side dishes himself. Let's eat him today. .
"You're welcome. Last month I appraised two Qing Dynasty calligraphy and paintings for him, but this old guy still hasn't paid me the appraisal fee. Let's make sure he bleeds this time..."
Li Hanlin was talking happily when suddenly the phone on his waist rang. When he heard the ring tone, Li Hanlin's eyebrows suddenly furrowed.
"Sorry, the old man has to go out and take a call." After saying that, Li Hanlin hurriedly walked out of the hall.
Shen Yu was afraid that Mr. Li would encounter something difficult, so he quickly followed him out.
"Grandpa, get me 50,000 yuan quickly. I want cash!" Li Hanlin turned on the loudspeaker, and a soft female voice came out.
This voice is familiar to Shen Yu. It is the voice of Li Lao’s granddaughter, Li Qing’er.
