Yan Xilong waved his hand to let the employee leave first, and walked towards Zhou Zichen: "Sir, you are looking at this object."
What Zhou Zichen is interested in is a furnace, about nine centimeters in diameter, open, with a round edge of about two centimeters on the side, a neck of a centimeter or two below, and a slightly bulging belly further down.
'Part, the material is metal.
A knowledgeable person will know that such a thing is a Xuande furnace from the Ming Dynasty.
However, Xuande furnaces are so rare that many people can conclude that they are fake without even looking at them.
Zhou Zichen nodded: "How to sell this stove?"
Song Yuanxun glanced at Yan Xilong. Although Yan Xilong was not an antique master, he could still recognize an antique. He knew at a glance that it was a Xuande furnace from the Ming Dynasty and that it was most likely a fake.
If Zhou Zichen chooses a calligraphy and painting or something, he may still worry that it may be missed by Zhou Zichen. However, if Zhou Zichen chooses a Xuande furnace, there is no need to worry. There is no Xuande furnace in the entire Songcheng. It is estimated that the entire province can
It would be good to find one.
Yan Xilong nodded slightly, indicating that Song Yuanxun could sell it, and said cheerfully: "Zhou Zichen, you have a pretty good eye. You fell in love with the Xuande furnace at a glance. This thing is worth at least tens of millions!"
Yan Xilong was right. If this thing was genuine, it would definitely be worth more than 10 million.
Zhou Zichen didn't care at all about Yan Xilong's sarcasm: "Then I have to accept Vice President Yan's good words. With Vice President Yan's words, it will be much easier to win!"
Zhou Zichen's words made Yan Xilong, who was a little happy just now, panic.
Yan Xilong let out a "ha" and said: "You can be proud of it. I'll see how long you can be proud of it. Although my painting of Qi Baishi in clothes is a little smaller, seven or eight million is stable."
Zhou Zichen nodded and acknowledged Yan Xilong's words and Qi Baishi's words. As long as he can find a buyer he likes, even a small painting can be sold for this price.
"Yes, Boss Song is still generous. I'll sell it to you for one million!" Zhou Zichen looked at Song Yuanxun again: "Boss Song, sell this stove to me cheaper!"
Song Yuanxun didn't care at all what Zhou Zichen said about him, and said with a smile: "The craftsmanship of this Xuande furnace is not bad. If Mr. Zhou likes it, I can sell it to you for 200,000 yuan."
Two hundred thousand, if this is a handicraft, it will definitely sell for a sky-high price. Even if the average person wants to buy a replica Xuande furnace, it will cost tens of millions to buy handicrafts. Song Yuanxun's smiling mouth is more expensive than ordinary people.
It's more than twenty times more expensive.
Zhou Zichen took another look at the Xuande furnace. The deep yellow light was definitely something from five hundred years ago. In other words, something from 500-600 years ago happened to be the Ming Dynasty, so this Xuande furnace was definitely authentic.
Zhou Zichen picked up the Xuande furnace and stroked it with his hand. It felt smooth to the touch, had a bright appearance, and was in perfect condition.
Zhou Zichen looked at the Xuande stove and said, "Boss Song, your price is too high or too low. If you really buy 200,000 yuan, you will lose money. If you buy 200,000 yuan for handicrafts, you are too shameless. 80,000 yuan!"
Eighty thousand is considered a very high price, because the Xuande furnace for handicrafts is only about ten thousand.
Song Yuanxun knew that his price was high because he knew that Zhou Zichen and Yan Xilong were competing, and this was just to help Yan Xilong consume Zhou Zichen's funds.
By consuming more of Zhou Zichen's funds, Yan Xilong's chance of winning will naturally increase.
And Zhou Zichen happened to understand this and knew that it would be impossible for him to buy it with ten thousand or twenty thousand.
Song Yuanxun shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhou, look at the craftsmanship of my Xuande furnace. It is absolutely perfect. If it weren't for the inscription not being done properly, it could be fake."
Zhou Zichen had already seen the bottom line of this thing, and there were four words "Xuande Year System" underneath.
These four characters are written very neatly, using official script. The word "year" only looks a little blurry, but Zhou Zichen has to thank the word "year" for it was polished into this shape with something.
"Mr. Song is right. We are all in the industry, and we all know the price by heart. If it's two hundred thousand, you really take me for granted. If it's old stuff, let's not talk about it.
Zhou Zichen said as he put the Xuande furnace back to its original position.
Song Yuanxun saw that Zhou Zichen wanted to give up, so he didn't care. However, Yan Xilong hoped that Zhou Zichen would sell this "fake", which would cost Zhou Zichen at least 80,000 yuan. If he spent one million in this way, he would soon be able to
Consume it all.
Yan Xilong winked at Song Yuanxun, which clearly meant that he wanted Song Yuanxun to take action.
Song Yuanxun was shocked when he saw Yan Xilong. He had three stoves in total. He received one for three hundred. He had already sold one for eight thousand. Everyone knew that it was a fake. This one has better workmanship.
He planned to spend 30,000 to 40,000 yuan, but now Zhou Zichen has spent 80,000 yuan, which has exceeded his expectations. Yan Xilong
Song Yuanxun spoke again, and there was nothing to hesitate about. However, as a businessman, Song Yuanxun still added another 20,000 yuan to Zhou Zichen's price. No one would think that he had too much money: "Mr. Zhou, you are knowledgeable.
Although this is an imitation, the workmanship is absolutely impeccable, and it is also a treasure among imitations. The price is worth 100,000 yuan."
Zhou Zichen was silent for a while: "Okay, then at this price, please help Boss Song pack it for me."
Su Mu saw Yan Xilong's eyes for the last time. Although he didn't understand antiques, he also knew that there must be something wrong with this antique, otherwise Song Yuanxun would not have been able to sell it to Zhou Zichen.
Su Mu quickly pulled Zhou Zichen: "Zichen, do you want to look at other things? Anyway, there is still more time."
People have to have hope. Although Su Mu already feels that his side has little hope of winning, as long as it is not over yet, he should not give up. Even if he knows that he is losing, he must go all out.
.
It was because of this that Su Mu was able to reach where he is today step by step. Sometimes it is clear that there is no hope, but as long as he persists until the last moment, there may be some surprises. This is true for shopping malls, and it is also true for the antique industry.
, because everyone can’t tell, maybe Zhou Zichen is really lucky and missed a priceless antique?
"It's okay, I really like this Xuande stove." Zhou Zichen said, giving Su Mu a reassuring look, and then went to pay.
Zhou Zichen is not worried that they will do tricks on Xuande Furnace Mountain. Tao Haoran and the others are of the same mind as Su Mu. As long as they are watching, they will not allow anyone to do anything there, and in their opinion, a person is
The imitation Xuande furnace has no tampering value.
"Payment is over here!" Song Yuanxun smiled and helped guide the way.
After much deliberation, Su Mu couldn't help but follow Zhou Zichen to pay.
Su Mu didn't care that Song Yuanxun was in front, and said directly: "Zichen, this is a competition between you and Yan Xilong. You can't look at things with the mentality of playing, or the mentality of collecting your favorite objects. I know you are good at antiques.
I'm very accomplished. I know it's difficult to use one million to miss 10 million, but it all depends on manpower."
Zhou Zichen still nodded: "President Su, don't worry! I have a plan."
Song Yuanxun walked in front and said: "Mr. Zhou is still very confident."
Zhou Zichen was not modest at all: "It's okay! I felt a little guilty against Zhuang Sheng last time, but I'm still a little confident against Yan Xilong."
Song Yuanxun turned his head and glanced at Zhou Zichen: "It's good for young people to be arrogant, but if you are too arrogant, you can easily break yourself, so it's better to be more diplomatic."
"Thanks to Boss Song for your guidance, I have my own sense of discretion!"
Su Mu loves his family and hates him the same way. He doesn't like Yan Xilong. Song Yuanxun has a good relationship with Yan Xilong, and now he is blatantly helping Yan Xilong. Su Mu doesn't like him very much, but there is nothing he can do. He is willing to sell it at a cheap price.
There is no way he can stop him. Prices in the antique business are inherently difficult to determine. Even if he is stopped from selling Qi Baishi's paintings, he can make a painting by Zhang Daqian in the blink of an eye. He can justifiably say that he can't see it accurately.
what to do?
Su Mu sighed secretly in his heart, Zhou Zichen's opinion was too big, and ordinary people couldn't persuade him at all.
Su Mu could not control Zhou Zichen at all. For the first time, he left the result to others and luck.
After Zhou Zichen paid, Xuande Furnace Master had already packed it.
Some people left the antique store, and now only Zhou Zichen still had 900,000.
Zhou Zichen had the Xuande furnace under control, so he was not in a hurry, so he just slowly started shopping one by one.
This time Zhou Zichen was not in a hurry and started shopping slowly. Su Mu was also very satisfied with Zhou Zichen's state and thought that Zhou Zichen was serious, which was a good thing.
This slow stroll made Yan Xilong and others very unhappy.
There was no idle person present, and no one present would come to the antique street to wander around if it was not necessary.
"Do you want to buy it or not? You are afraid of losing, and you are deliberately delaying it." Gong Chenggang finally couldn't help it anymore.
He felt that Zhou Zichen was just stalling for time. She was not the only one with such a young age. At least Yan Xilong also thought so: "Buy something that belongs to my mother-in-law. Just buy it if you like it."
Zhou Zichen glanced sideways at Yan Xilong: "Really? Then why did you go to Taihe Antiques?"
Zhou Zichen blocked Yan Xilong back with just one sentence. Everyone knew why. Those who were with Yan Xilong would not tell the truth, and those with Su Mu knew very well that it would be useless if they spoke. In the end, it would just be a waste of time.
Now that Zhou Zichen had said it directly, Su Mu and others watched the fun with smiles, while Yan Xilong and the others stared angrily.
"Does it matter which store I choose to buy from? We haven't agreed on this before, right?" Yan Xilong said with a cold face.
Zhou Zichen chuckled: "No, no, I'm just telling you that our conditions are different. Someone will prepare it for you as soon as you come. When I come, I have to look for it one by one, right?"
What Zhou Zichen said left everyone speechless, but everyone actually felt that it made sense.
