Chapter 103 Three hundred and eighty thousand
After Zhao Zheng complained a few words, he took out a magnifying glass and appraised the three antiques one by one.
Chen Jing drank tea expectantly while waiting for Zhao Zheng to finish the appraisal.
It took Zhao Zheng some time to look at the three antiques one by one with his discerning eye.
Putting down the magnifying glass in his hand, Zhao Zheng looked up at Chen Jing and said with a serious face: "Xiao Chen, I think you are really likely to become a leader in the national antique shop in the future. Not to mention luck, your appraisal talent is really hard to come by.
Encounter."
Hearing this, Chen Jing hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhao, what you said is too flattering." In fact, he really didn't have that much confidence in himself, of course, assuming that the appraisal eyes were aside.
After all, if you include the eye for appraisal, there is no one in the antique shops across the country who can beat Chen Jing in terms of appraisal!
Zhao Zheng was still serious: "There is no praise at all, Xiao Chen. These three antiques are all genuine. Don't tell me that it all depends on luck. If you don't see something, I won't believe it."
When it came to this, Chen Jing couldn't hide it too much: "Uncle Zhao, I do think that these three things have a glance, but I still can't be completely sure."
It's not good to show too much edge. Chen Jing's words are reserved. The most important thing is that he has been in the industry for too short time. Some of the appraisal eyesight can be explained by talent and hard work, but if the appraisal eyesight is too powerful, then it will
The explanation is unclear.
One step ahead is a genius, ten steps ahead is a monster.
But even so, Zhao Zheng was still quite emotional and amazed: "In this world, the most terrifying thing is a person like you, Xiao Chen, who is both talented and hardworking. The heights you will reach in the future may be beyond my imagination.
"
Chen Jing said modestly: "Uncle Zhao, you are really exaggerating." After a pause, he quickly changed the topic: "Uncle Zhao, in addition to this lid box, can you give me an estimate of the price of the other two items?
.”
Zhao Zheng gave an estimate before picking the colored cover box.
At the same time, Chen Jing was also secretly thinking that next time he picked up something missing, he would not be able to ask Uncle Zhao for help with inspection and valuation, because his frequency was too high.
However, the main reason why Chen Jing asked Zhao Zheng to help with inspection and valuation was to use his contacts and channels to sell the antiques faster.
If he no longer asks Uncle Zhao for help, then he will have to find a way to do it himself, and this process will definitely be troublesome or even tricky.
But there was nothing Chen Jing could do, because if he continued like this, it would be too shocking.
In addition, Chen Jing also wants to try to build his own network of contacts and sales channels. After all, he can't rely on Zhao Zheng forever.
People, in the end, you still have to rely on yourself.
"Mr. Wu Changshuo's chicken-blood stone seal, similar ones appeared at auction two years ago, and the value should be between 350,000 and 400,000." Zhao Zheng first took the chicken-blood stone seal and played with it with great interest.
Hearing this valuation, Chen Jing was quite happy and asked, "What about this jade pendant?"
Speaking of the Pig Dragon Jade Pendant, Zhao Zheng also showed some surprise on his face: "Xiao Chen, this jade pendant of yours is very interesting. Although it looks like average jade quality, it is obviously a replica of the Pig Jade Dragon unearthed from the Hongshan Cultural Relics.
, this jade pendant should be from the Ming and Qing Dynasties.”
"Do you know what this means?"
When Chen Jing heard this, he sighed in his heart, Uncle Zhao is still Uncle Zhao, his experience and ethics are enough.
"This should have considerable academic value, right?" Chen Jing did not hide that he knew this, otherwise it would be difficult to explain why he bought this jade pendant.
Zhao Zheng couldn't help but be surprised: "What a good boy, your thinking is very flexible. There are not many antique people who can think of this."
Chen Jing was embarrassed to accept his compliment anyway, so he just smiled and said, "Uncle Zhao, how much can this jade pendant be sold for?"
Zhao Zheng thought about this question for a while before saying: "It depends on who you sell it to. Most collectors will definitely not be interested in this jade pendant. After all, they are interested in academic research."
There are still not many people.”
"But if you can find a collector who engages in historical academic research, the value will not be low. It can still be sold for around 250,000 yuan."
The valuation given by Zhao Zheng was similar to what Chen Jing had thought before, which made him a little happy. This showed that he was now gradually gaining the ability to do valuation.
Of course, if you want to achieve Zhao Zheng's valuation capabilities, you still need more experience accumulation and understanding of the market.
As mentioned before, antiques themselves can be regarded as an investment product. The value of this investment product will fluctuate with the market, but the value of most antiques will not fluctuate too much.
"A collector engaged in historical academic research?" Chen Jing was slightly startled when he heard this, and felt a little worried. This is not easy to find.
However, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Chen Jing simply did not think about the jade pendant and asked instead: "Uncle Zhao, it should be easier to get rid of the other two items, right?"
"Uncle Zhao, I'm going to trouble you again this time. Just like before, you help me and I'll give you a share, but this time it's 10%."
Zhao Zheng nodded, indicating that there was no problem, and then said: "I will get a share of this box with a colorful lid, and Mr. Wu Changshuo's seal will not be needed."
"Huh?" Chen Jing looked at him doubtfully.
"I quite like this seal. Sell it to me for 380,000 yuan, Xiao Chen." Zhao Zheng said cheerfully.
Hearing this, Chen Jing hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhao, it's only 350,000 yuan."
"Okay, it's only 380,000. The market for Mr. Wu Changshuo's seal is quite good. If you sell it elsewhere, it will definitely be more than the lowest estimate." Zhao Zheng waved his hand and said without refusal.
When Chen Jing heard this, he hesitated for a moment and then nodded in agreement. Zhao Zheng was a man who meant what he said.
After negotiating Mr. Wu Changshuo's seal, Zhao Zheng looked at the colorful cover box again. He had already thought about who to deal with, so he said directly: "Master Li Xun should be very interested in this cover box.
I remember that he likes this kind of antiques very much, let me contact him for you."
Chen Jing naturally had no objections.
Although he has met Master Li Xun, there is really no friendship. With Zhao Zheng as a middleman, if Master Li Xun is really interested, it will be much easier to negotiate the price.
After all, among the three antiques, the box with a painted lid has the highest valuation, ranging from 700,000 to 900,000. Chen Jing naturally thought that the higher the final transaction price, the better.
