After being slapped by Yuan Qianqian, Li Shao was so depressed that he could not leave and left.
No matter what, the treasure appraisal conference is not over yet, and there is a treasure presenter waiting to offer his treasure and ask experts to identify it. If Mr. Li leaves here, he will seem too undespicable.
"Please give the treasure No. 12 Mr. Ma!"
Seeing that the situation was not good, the male host quickly raised his tone and shouted.
At this moment, we can only divert everyone's attention as soon as possible so that Young Master Li will not be so embarrassed.
Amid the brisk music, Mr. Ma, the 12th treasure presenter, slowly moved forward and entered everyone's vision. Mr. Ma, about fifty years old, has wrinkles on his face and is dressed very simply. You can tell at a glance that
The family is not very good, and the life is not so satisfactory. This is not because of his simplicity, but because of his overall temperament.
Walking on the red carpet leading to the treasure appraisal platform, Mr. Ma was timid and had a humble smile on his face. The confident temperament of a successful person had nothing to do with him at all.
For example, Xiao Fan, no matter how simple he dresses, no one will really regard him as a poor scholar.
The box in Mr. Ma's hand was packed with a bright and modern atmosphere. It was obvious that the packaging box was temporarily added. If the treasure he brought was so "fresh", there was no need to identify it.
Antiques, the focus is on the word "ancient".
After experiencing the ups and downs of the past, everyone was full of expectations for the box in Mr. Ma's hand. I hope Mr. Ma can bring you a more expensive treasure. Then today's treasure appraisal conference will be considered
It ended successfully, and it was more exciting than the previous treasure appraisal conferences.
At least the past few treasure appraisal conferences did not sound like a "slap" in the face.
However, seeing Mr. Ma’s honest and complacent look, many people also doubted in their hearts that what good treasures can a person like this collect?
In fact, Mr. Ma did not surprise me. When the obviously unsuitable packaging box opened and Mr. Ma carefully took out an item in the shape of a bowl from it, several VIPs showed disappointment. They were able to attend.
VIPs at this kind of treasure appraisal conference are usually not that simple, and their ability to appreciate antiques is extraordinary. If it is really 25 years old, how dare you participate in the auction casually?
Although the three treasure appraisal experts, including Nan Shutong, are still quite trustworthy in such public places, they only report a bidding price. The amount of treasures sold at the end depends on each
People have a sense of this thing. A guy who knows nothing can easily be treated as a sucker.
There are many examples of colluding with each other and slaughtering people in partnership at auction.
The bowl that Mr. Ma took out was blue and white in color, and the jade quality was very ordinary and even inferior. Experts who play antiques knew very well that jade was really not valuable. Even if it was jade from ancient times, if it was not very special, it would often cost.
Not very high.
Not to mention that the bowl that Mr. Ma took out is so ordinary jade, you can tell at a glance that it is mixed jade. Such a mixed jade bowl, no matter how old it is and how exquisite the carving is, is of very limited value.
The expressions of the three treasure appraisers can explain the problem even more.
When he saw this jade bowl, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Nan Shutong's mouth. The oldest treasure appraiser shook his head slightly, and his face was obviously dissatisfied. The other treasure appraiser glanced at him.
Afterwards, I picked up the water cup in front of me, as if I had no interest in taking a look.
There is really nothing good to look at.
Not only is it miscellaneous jade, but it also has ordinary carvings, so it is not very special.
To put it nicely, the so-called miscellaneous jade is actually a slightly smoother stone.
But since this thing has been taken to Shutong, and at such a formal treasure appraisal conference, you cannot just let others take it back like this. You have to appreciate it and give me a comment.
"Mr. Ma, how did you get this bowl?"
Nan Shutong picked up the bowl, looked around for a few times, and asked casually.
This is the standard process of the treasure appraisal conference. Whenever the treasure presenter comes up, the treasure appraiser will ask this question.
Mr. Ma quickly replied respectfully: "Mr. Nan, this bowl is not mine, it belongs to a relative. His family lives far away, so he brought this thing to me..."
"Oh, relatives? Is it from the ancestors?"
Uncle Nan looked through the bowl and asked casually.
"Maybe it's from the ancestors. My relative is very honest and honest... Mr. Nan, I just want to ask if this bowl is genuine?"
When asked about this, Mr. Ma's tone was quite nervous, as if he was afraid of saying the word "no" from Uncle Nan.
Nan Shutong laughed and said, "Mr. Ma, the authenticity is genuine. From my perspective, your mixed jade bowl is still an old antique, something from the Qin and Han dynasties. Judging from the carving patterns and techniques, it is very obvious.
Han characteristics.”
"Are you a real antique? Mr. Nan, how much is this bowl worth?"
Mr. Ma suddenly became excited and asked a question.
“How much is it worth?”
Mr. Ma seemed to be stopped by Shutong Nan, and hesitated and pondered silently.
Everyone's hearts were hanging, and even the disappointed VIPs widened their eyes, held their breath and waited for the Nan Shutong to offer. Perhaps it might not be possible that they had taken a look away.
In any case, this is also an antique from the Qin and Han Dynasties.
"Mr. Ma, don't be disappointed if I say it... In the antique world, jade products are always not very valuable. This bowl has poor jade quality, and its carvings are also very average. There are also many damages, and its appearance is even more ordinary.
Although it is an antique from the Qin and Han Dynasties, it is not very valuable."
"So, how much is it worth?"
Mr. Ma asked hurriedly, his face full of worrying about gains and losses.
Nan Shutong thought for a while and said, "Mr. Ma, the estimation of this bowl is two thousand yuan."
"two thousand?"
Mr. Ma's face immediately showed extreme disappointment.
Nan Shutong nodded and shook his head slightly. To be honest, the estimation of the bowl of 2,000 yuan was already very high. If someone else took such a mixed jade bowl to "Qianbaozhai" for sale, his
The clerk was able to give a price of 500 yuan. He thought that Lao Ma was an honest man and pitiful person, so he realized that he had given a price of 4 or 5 times.
If no one really liked this bowl at the entire auction, Nan Shutong would have collected the bowl for 2,000 yuan, just as a good deed.
"Haha, Mr. Ma, the price is very reasonable." The treasure appraiser in his fifties who were holding a cup to drink tea slowly put down the tea cup and said with a smile: "Would you like to auction your bowl here, do you want to buy it here?
?”
In fact, this expert is also reminding Mr. Ma in a very obscure way that if you really want to sell, you will sell it here. Even if you sell it at the lowest price, you will make a lot of money. When you leave the door of this treasure appraisal hall, don’t say two thousand.
I'm afraid no one wants to do it for five hundred.
This time, it was rare that Nan Shutong was discovered with conscience.
Mr. Ma's face was dark and clear, as if he was confused. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Two thousand is only two thousand, just auction it here..."
It can be seen that Mr. Ma is not that kind of stupid person. He knows very clearly that if he didn't auction here, he would probably not be able to get two thousand yuan. Although this is not his own thing, the relative was anxious to wait for the money.
For two thousand yuan, in the eyes of the city people, it is only a meal, or even not enough for a meal. It is enough to make a family of several people live in a year.
In other words, for his relative, two thousand yuan is also an astronomical figure.
"Okay, then auction it on the spot."
Nan Shutong smiled and nodded, as if he felt that Mr. Ma had made a very correct decision.
The male host quickly picked up the jade bowl and put it on the auction table beside him. He knocked the hammer and cheered up and said, "The starting price of a jade bowl in the former Han Dynasty is 2,000 yuan, and the price must not be less than two at a time.
Hundred! Start the auction now!”
In the huge multi-functional hall, there was another burst of laughter.
Many of the VIPs here are old birds and have participated in several treasure appraisal conferences. This is the first time that such low-level antiques have been publicly auctioned at the treasure appraisal conference.
Two thousand yuan?
In the eyes of these big bosses, is two thousand yuan a lot of money?
The male host couldn't help but be funny. As an emcee, he naturally had to try his best to make the atmosphere at the treasure appraisal conference. But now it seems that he wants to rely on this tattered mixed jade bowl to set off the last climax of tonight.
I'm afraid I can't catch it.
No matter how good he has the ability to create an atmosphere, how can a good wife be unable to cook without rice!
"Everyone, although this miscellaneous jade bowl is not a treasure, it is also a very authentic antique. Mr. Nan Shutong personally identified it. Antiques from the Qin and Han Dynasties are not very expensive. Please bid actively...
”
Seeing that no VIP bid below, the male host was helpless and had to say so.
If no one bids, it will probably fail.
"Okay, I'll pay two thousand!"
A woman in VIP seat No. 16 raised the sign in her hand, her face full of sympathy.
It seems that many VIPs have the same thoughts as Uncle Nan, but they only cost 2,000 yuan. They just treat it as helping others and doing good deeds.
"Okay, great, thanks to this generous lady at Table 16! Two thousand yuan, is there a higher price than two thousand yuan? Is there any? Two thousand yuan for the first time..."
The male host shouted loudly, holding up the hammer in his hand, as if he was ready to smash it down at any time, and ending today's treasure appraisal conference.
"Two thousand five!"
Just after the male host called out "Two thousand dollars for the second time", someone finally offered another offer.
It was still the lazy male voice, with self-righteous elegance.
Li Luo!
After being slapped by Yuan Qianqian, Mr. Li actually took action again. Could it be that Mr. Li wanted to rely on this small miscellaneous jade bowl to save the face he had just lost?
If this is the case, it would be a bit too difficult.
"Three thousand!"
Sure enough, as soon as Li Luo finished speaking, someone immediately gave a higher price, and added five hundred in one breath.
Li Luo turned his head "wow" and swept towards the VIP No. 31. Mars flew everywhere in his eyes.
As Li Shao stared at him fiercely, Xiao Fan's face calmed down, slowly put down the sign in his hand, and completely pretended that he had not seen Li Luo's fire-like eyes. (To be continued. Please search for Piao Tianwen, the novel is better Update faster!)
