Chen Yunfeng was able to guess his identity, which was not surprising to Liu Dong! Nowadays, as the collection in the Yuanming Museum is widely circulated, Liu Dong dare not say it abroad. But in the domestic collection circle, I am afraid that ten people
At least nine people among them know his name, and half of them know something about him!
Since Chen Yunfeng is wealthy and a celebrity in the collecting industry, it would be really weird if he didn’t know about the Yuanming Museum and Liu Dongcai!
"Mr. Chen, our appraiser is ready. I wonder if you want to take action on those things here?" Xiao Fanbin said.
"Oh, except for the Qingtian Stone, everything on the display rack is prepared by me for auction!"
"All the things?"
Looking at the collection of as many as 200 pieces on the display rack, Xiao Fanbin was stunned for a moment, and then his heart immediately became happy.
The more things Chen Yunfeng puts up for auction, the more shares the auction house will get after the event is completed. For Xiao Fanbin, the manager of the East China Branch, the share is performance. What does performance mean? It means more dividends at the end of the year.
, and a brighter future!
"Then let's start?" Xiao Fanbin said quickly with joy in his heart.
"start!"
After Chen Yunfeng nodded, and then obtained Liu Dong's agreement, Xiao Fanbin quickly directed the appraisers who came with him to get busy.
Of course, in addition to the auction company, Chen Yunfeng also has dedicated people in charge.
With the two parties having already reached a cooperation agreement, everything was in order although they were busy. During their free time, Liu Dong and Chen Yunfeng chatted next to them.
"Mr. Chen sold everything at once. Doesn't he intend to quit the collecting world?"
"I won't quit the collecting world, but I have encountered some troubles in my business during this period, and I want to raise some funds for emergency. So I have to sell them first!"
"Raising funds? Wouldn't these Qingtian stones be a better choice?" Liu Dong said.
During this time, Liu Dong had already taken a rough look at the Qingtian stones placed on the iron frame. Although there was no Qingtian Lighting Stone, which is known as 'the rarest seal stone', nor the famous Qingtian Fengmen Qing, there were slightly inferior ones.
There are still a few pieces of Qingtian Orchid Blue. Although they are not big, they are still valuable!
Moreover, the Qingtian stones placed in the treasure room by Chen Yunfeng are almost all middle and upper Qingtian stones.
There is almost no shortage of golden brilliance, bamboo leaf green, mustard green, golden jade jelly, ginkgo Qingtian, red Qingtian, dragon eggs among Qingtian’s strange stones, sealing three colors, plywood jelly, red sandalwood flower jelly, etc.!
With so many high-quality Qingtian stones gathered together, the temptation given to Liu Dong was much stronger than the antiques next to it!
"Qingtian stone is indeed a better choice. pbtt However, I want to wait and see!"
After Chen Yunfeng finished speaking, Liu Dong suddenly understood.
Although it is said that 'Antiques in prosperous times are gold in troubled times', the scarcity of middle and upper Qingtian stones now makes their prices rise much faster than ordinary antiques. Obviously, Chen Yunfeng hopes to sell his own antiques to raise funds, and then wait for the continued appreciation of Qingtian stones.
.
Although this approach is putting the cart before the horse from an artistic point of view, it is indeed correct from a businessman's point of view! Because the first thing a businessman considers is profit!
And Chen Yunfeng is obviously a qualified businessman.
"If Mr. Liu is interested, you can get some from me today!" After noticing the expression on Liu Dong's face, Chen Yunfeng said with a smile.
"I am naturally interested in Qingtian Stone, especially Qingtian Stone. However, the quantity I want is quite large, and I am afraid that Mr. Chen's place will not be able to meet my requirements!"
After Liu Dong finished speaking, the look on Chen Yunfeng's face suddenly changed!
"Mr. Chen, don't get me wrong. I don't mean to force you to buy all the Qingtian stones! It's just that I heard that Mr. Chen has connections in Qingtian County. So I would like to ask Mr. Chen for a favor and contact more sellers who have Qingtian stones, as long as they are of the right grade.
, I will always buy it at a high price. Of course, as Mr. Chen is the middleman, I will not treat you badly after the transaction is completed!"
"Haha, Mr. Liu is so polite! If Mr. Liu really wants Qingtian Stone, of course I am willing to help!" After a pause, Chen Yunfeng thought for a while and said, "I don't know how many days Mr. Liu will stay in Hangzhou.
?”
"I have a lot of time. If you have anything to say, Mr. Chen, just tell me!"
"Well, in three days there will be a big market held every quarter in Qingtian County! At this time, individuals, private miners and companies in Qingtian County will sell their accumulated Qingtian stones at the big market. If Mr. Liu has time, you might as well follow me
Let's go together! As long as Mr. Liu is willing to spend money, I guarantee that Mr. Liu will get a satisfactory harvest!" Chen Yunfeng said.
"Then I'll have to trouble Mr. Chen!" After a slight hesitation, Liu Dong agreed.
Three days were enough for him to finish handling the bronze sculpture contract.
"Mr. Liu, you're welcome!"
While the two were chatting, Xiao Fanbin had already led the auction house's appraiser to appraise all the antiques that Chen Yunfeng wanted to put up for auction.
Liu Dong, who happened to be meeting, also used the relic Yuanguang to look at it. There was neither fakeness nor top-notch art that made him excited!
The only thing of relatively high value is a red holding box from the Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea in the Ming Dynasty!
Obviously, before these things were sold, Chen Yunfeng had already collected the truly valuable top antiques among them!
However, this approach is not surprising. From the fact that Chen Yunfeng only sells antiques and does not touch the Qingtian rough stones he collected, it can be seen that the other party is not very short of funds. It may be just because of a temporary lack of liquidity, so he had to
Selling antiques to raise some emergency funds.
In this way, it is natural to pick out the most precious antique order that I have finally collected.
Chen Yunfeng also knows in his heart that the appreciation space of truly top-notch antiques is greater than the Qingtian rough stones he spent more than ten years collecting.
"Director Liu, Mr. Chen, now we have sorted out all the antiques! There is no problem! In addition, we have prepared the contract. If Mr. Chen sees no problem, we can sign the contract now!" After that,
Xiao Fanbin handed the contract book in his hand to Chen Yunfeng!
"No problem, we can sign the contract!"
"No need to give it to me, I just happened to meet you today!" Liu Dong waved his hand and rejected the contract handed over by Chen Yunfeng.
Seeing him like this, Xiao Fanbin took over the contract and continued: "On November 1st, our Puhua Red Star Auction House will prepare a special collection exhibition for Mr. Chen in Hangzhou! I hope that Director Liu and Chen
Sir, come and join us if you have time!"
"I have time, but I'm afraid Mr. Liu may not!"
After nodding, Liu Dong said: "I have other things to do so I won't get over it! See you at the end of the year, at the company's annual meeting!"
After finishing the contract for the antique auction, Chen Yunfeng did not break his promise and traded nearly one-fifth of the nearly five pieces of Qingtian stones in his collection to Liu Dong.
For this fifth of Qingtian Stone, Liu Dong also spent nearly 60 million yuan! Although it cost a lot, Liu Dong felt that it was worth it.
With nearly two thousand years of mining, the number of high-quality Qingtian stones has become less and less, and even Qingtian stones that can be used for printing have become scarce.
The result of this is that the price of Qingtian stone, especially high-quality Qingtian stone, is getting higher and higher.
Take the dragon egg stone as an example. Five years ago, the price of a 2-gram dragon egg stone in Qingtian County was around 10,000 yuan! But now, five years later, the price of the same size dragon egg stone has risen to 10,000 yuan, an increase of nearly ten thousand yuan.
Times! Five years ago, dragon egg stones could be mined in the open pit, but now they have to use machinery!
It is conceivable that as large-scale mining becomes increasingly serious, the price of Qingtian stone will inevitably skyrocket!
In addition, Liu Dong was a little surprised that Chen Yunfeng was willing to sell him more than 100 pieces of Qingtian stone. Originally, he thought that he could sell it for 20 to 30 yuan, which was already very good!
You know, none of the Qingtian stones that can be collected by Chen Yunfeng in his treasure room is worth less than 50,000!
After finishing the transaction and transferring the funds to Chen Yunfeng's bank card, it was time for Liu Dong and the others to say goodbye after a final chat.
Fortunately, there were several escort trucks from the company this time, otherwise it would have been troublesome to transport the more than 100 Qingtian stones bought by Liu Dong.
"Dr. Liu, this is the list of antiques compiled. Take a look!" Sitting in the car returning, Xiao Fanbin handed the prepared items to Liu Dong.
And Liu Dong, who did not drive by himself this time but sat in the back seat, did not refuse.
After briefly flipping through a few pages, Liu Dong took the pen handed over by Xiao Fanbin and put a check mark on the dozens of antiques he was interested in!
"And that's all!"
After receiving the items handed over by Liu Dong, Xiao Fanbin took a few glances and silently remembered the list of these antiques in his heart.
After waiting for more than a week, although these antiques that Liu Dong has taken a liking to will appear on the auction stage at the Puhua Red Star Special Auction, their ending will inevitably be that they will be bought by the auction house with money that has been arranged long ago, and then handed over to the auction house.
into the hands of Liu Dong.
Since Puhua Red Star Auction House was established in Liu Dong’s hands, this has almost become a reserved part of every auction in the auction house!
There is nothing that can be done about it. Who said that the owner of the company is a collector with too much money to spend, and he also runs a private museum?
Of course, even if Liu Dong did this, there was no objection in Puhua Red Star Auction House, and many people even agreed.
Gein, every time Liu Dong bids, he pays real money, and the auction price is considered the performance of the auction house. It does not delay the monthly salary commission, and also eliminates the probability of failed auctions. Why not do it?
?
"Those Qingtian stones are temporarily stored in the company's vault! They will be transported back to Quancheng after a period of time!"
