Chapter 499 Change? Change!

When you hear this, you will know that the highlight is coming, so you will naturally pay attention to listening.

"You must have understood the situation of the cat butterfly pink porcelain bottle of Qianlong official kiln." Old Chen sighed: "It was the signboard of my uncle's antique shop back then, but because he was set up in the Tianxian Bureau, in order to overcome the difficulties, he had to pay off his debts with a bottle. This matter has always been my uncle's regret. Before he died, he still wanted to find the bottle."

"For decades, I have been pursuing the clues of the bottle, but I have found nothing. Or I have given up completely, but I didn't expect that I would really see the Butterfly Playing Cat Bottle again in my lifetime."

Speaking of this, Chen Lao said with mixed feelings: "You are not afraid of you laughing at me when you hear this news. When I hear this, my first reaction is that someone sets up a plan and is about to cheat me. However, when I am really sure, I almost couldn't help but cry with joy."

"Brother Chen, you should have said it earlier. I don't know that you value this bottle so much." Mr. Zhou sighed slightly, "Otherwise, you will inform you when you see the bottle."

"There is a past story. When I talked to you about this, I no longer have any hope." Old Chen smiled bitterly, "I even felt that the bottle had been ruined. I was discouraged, so I naturally didn't say much. Fortunately, I won't abandon me. Before I almost stepped into the coffin, I finally found the bottle. Even if I left now, I am worthy of my uncle."

"Brother Chen, you are planning to not have a bottle?" Mr. Zhou said with a smile: "That would be much easier and would save me, the agent, from being embarrassed."

Everyone knows why they are embarrassed. It’s nothing more than worrying that Mr. Chen, who is Wang Guan, cannot reach an agreement, so it’s really uncomfortable for Mr. Zhou to be stuck in the middle.

"Don't worry, I won't make you embarrassed." At the same time, Mr. Chen smiled lightly, looked at Wang Guandao, and suddenly asked: "Young man, what do you think of this store?"

"Shop?" Wang Guan was stunned, suddenly thought of a possibility, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

In fact, it was not only that he thought about it, Yu Feibai's reaction was not slow, but also more direct. He couldn't help asking: "Old Chen, can you want to exchange bottles with Wang Guan for this store?"

"What's wrong?" Chen Lao smiled and said, "Old Craftsman has no body and the only thing he can do is this store that has been operating for 30 years. Considering the prices in the capital, this house should be worth a bottle."

The housing prices in Beijing are very high. As for how high it is, it depends on the environment. For example, this store is located in Liulichang, which is the veritable city center in Xicheng District, and the price must be very high. Moreover, according to Mr. Chen’s meaning, it is not just a store, but also the land of the store…

Wang Guan couldn't calculate it, but Yu Fei, Baimenqing, estimated the space in the attic, and after comparing the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, he immediately nodded and said, "It can be offset, it can be offset completely."

Of course, considering that the price of Butterfly Cat Pastel Bottle is flexible, if calculated based on the highest price, this attic will definitely be far from that amount. The problem is that even if the price is mostly different, Yu Feibai still thinks that the prices of the two are equal, and even thinks that it is profitable to exchange the bottle for it.

After all, the price of artworks is not static and is easily affected by various factors, especially when the market economy is in a downturn, or if the things that cost tens of millions in the past few years are millions this year. But real estate is different. Even if the government calls for limiting housing prices every day, everyone is very clear-headed, housing prices will only get higher and higher, and the possibility of collapse is zero.

Especially in places like the center of the capital, the price limit order is useless. If you limit yours, I raise mine. If you can afford a house, no matter what the price limit order is. If you can't afford a house, you also want the house price to be higher, which will make people who can afford it bleed. So in this place in China, houses are much more reliable than gold.

Wang Guan knew this truth in his heart, and naturally felt a little strange. After all, even they felt that it was a disadvantage to exchange for a pastel bottle with the attic. There was no reason why Mr. Chen didn't understand.

At this time, Mr. Zhou was also very surprised and said, "Brother Chen, have you considered it clearly? This Wenguzhai is a foundation that you have founded after decades of hard work."

"Basic business? No one inherits it, how can it be called a foundation business?"

Mr. Chen smiled bitterly and said, "Yizhi, you have some understanding of my family's situation. The descendants are more keen on shopping malls and have no interest in collecting antiques. It's okay if I'm away one day, Wenguzhai will probably go bankrupt.

When Mr. Zhou heard this, he was speechless. Because this is the fact, in recent years, they have encountered such things. After an old friend who was obsessed with antiques during his lifetime passed away, his family's collection was immediately auctioned off by his descendants.

"Instead of letting them waste things like this, it's better to let me properly place them and leave them to those who are destined to be." Mr. Chen sighed lightly and asked with a smile: "Young man, are you interested in taking over this store?"

"I'm interested, of course I'm interested."

Realizing that Wang Guan was still a little lost, Yu Feibai quickly replied: "He had the intention to open a store, but he didn't expect it to be realized at once. He was a little confused."

"Yes, it's a bit unexpected." Wang Guan woke up and smiled embarrassedly: "I didn't expect Mr. Chen to exchange like this, it was too unexpected."

After all, there is no hatred for no reason, nor love for no reason. This is the first time the two met, but Mr. Chen seemed to have recognized him, which somewhat confused Wang Guan.

"Haha, of course there is a reason."

Mr. Chen smiled and said, "I have wanted to find someone to take over the store, but I have never found a suitable candidate. I learned about the reappearance of the pastel bottle a few days ago, so I immediately wanted to buy the bottle. But considering that the price should be very expensive, I found out that you and Ling Xi have a good relationship, so I came to visit me and planned to ask Ling Xi to help me talk about it."

"Ling Xi agreed readily, saying that you don't pay much attention to money and are confident that you can convince you to transfer the pastel bottle to me at a fair price."

Speaking of this, Mr. Chen shook his head and sighed: "I was very happy at the time, but afterwards he suddenly realized that even if it was affordable, I wouldn't have that much cash. I thought about it for a long time and suddenly had an idea. I just wanted to give Wen Guzhai to Ling Xi, and then immediately went to find him to make a decision. Unexpectedly, when he heard this, he laughed at me for being extravagant and exchanged it directly with you."

"I disagreed at the beginning. After all, Wenguzhai was founded by me and I have some feelings. Even if it is transferred to someone else, I hope that the person I take over will continue to operate antiques instead of other purposes."

After looking at Wang Guan, Mr. Chen continued, "But Ling Xi told me that you would not do this, but on the contrary, they would run the store better. I thought about it for a few days and felt that we were destined to be, so I agreed."

In an instant, everyone suddenly realized that Mr. Chen did not trust Wang Guan, but Mr. Qian.

"Young man, since you know the cause and effect, you can tell me what your decision is." At this time, Mr. Chen smiled and said, "Switch, or not?"

"Switch!" Wang Guan said decisively, "I won't change it." This is a matter of your love and my wish. Without compulsion, I will naturally not suffer any losses. He felt it was worth it, and Mr. Chen also had the same feeling, so it can be called a win-win situation for everyone to be happy.

"Okay." Old Chen nodded slightly and signaled to the middle-aged man next to him: "Lawyer Wu, you can start now."

"Okay, Mr. Chen." Lawyer Wu smiled a little, and then took out pages of documents and information very professionally, all of which were Wen Guzhai's property certificates and other items. Mr. Chen was obviously ready, and the contract had been drafted in advance, so he just waited for Wang Guan to sign.

Wang Guan browsed the contract a little and felt that there was no problem. He immediately picked up his pen and attached his name. From a legal perspective, at the moment of signing, the attic now belonged to his property. It was at this time that a complex look flashed through Old Chen's eyes, with reluctance and relaxation.

"Young man, do well and wish you a prosperous business in advance. When you reopen, don't forget to give me an invitation." Mr. Chen said softly, rejecting everyone's gifts. He walked out slowly with the company of Lawyer Wu, and his hunched back seemed a little lonely.

Everyone was somewhat moved and understood Mr. Chen’s current mood. After all, no matter who it was, he would definitely feel very sad when he transferred the store he founded to others by himself.

"Everyone..."

At this time, seeing the atmosphere a little low, Yu Feibai immediately clapped his hands and smiled: "Welcome to Wang Dongzhu's antique shop. Now is a discounted event before reopening. Please follow me to visit. Just take whatever you like, don't have any money."

"Haha, you young people play slowly."

At the right time, Mr. Zhou smiled and said, "I will leave first if I have something to do, and then go to Lingxi's house to celebrate with you in the evening."

"Okay, Mr. Zhou walked slowly..."

After several people sent Mr. Zhou out, they immediately turned around and returned to the store to watch with great enthusiasm. The spacious shop was equipped with seven or eight glass counters and five or six wooden racks, but it didn't seem crowded at all.

The most important thing is that both the counters and wooden racks display various antiques and objects. Of course, Mr. Chen also bluntly admitted that these things are not valuable and he has moved home the truly valuable things. Despite this, Wang Guan was still very happy. At least with this foundation, he would not have to re-built them, and he also avoided a lot of trouble.

After walking around, Yu Feibai suggested: "Let's go, let's go up the second floor to take a look."

Wang Guan and others naturally had no objection, so they followed Yu Feibai and went up the stairs to the second floor.
