My life has subtitles

Chapter 9 Sincerity
  Of course Yang Chen would not open his mouth like a lion.

Based on past auction prices, the market price given by the system is also around 200 million soft sister coins, which is very reasonable.

But the actual price is 250 million.

In other words, this lotus seed bowl still has a certain price premium.

Yang Chen took a sip of tea and made an offer of three million.

Zhang Wenyu nodded. The price was not outrageous and within the acceptable range.

"Brother Xiao Yang, this price is still a bit high. You can't just look at the auction price from the auction house, but also include the commission and appraisal service fees."

"Remove these costs and give us a suitable quote."

When doing business, it is normal to find ways to haggle and bargain.

Of course, Yang Chen would not take the initiative to lower the price, but would instead make progress by retreating and asked: "How much does Boss Zhang think we can charge?"

Boss Zhang said to wait a moment and make a call to ask.

Then he got up and went into the inner room to make a phone call.

After a while, Boss Zhang came out and held out two fingers: "Two million, maybe. The [Yongle Huizi Lotus Petal Chicken Heart Bowl] sold by Huaguo Yiji last year was sold for 200 million."

"Excluding commissions and service fees, the seller only gets more than 150 million."

"I will give you 200 million, absolutely sincerely."

The price given by Zhang Wenyu is indeed very sincere.

Going to an auction house, not to mention various handling fees, is a cumbersome and lengthy process, very time-consuming, and there may not be anyone to take the auction.

Transact directly with buyers, saving worry, effort and money.

Why not?
  Hearing this, Yang Chen shook his head.

Since the actual price given by the system is 250 million, it means that this lotus seed bowl can definitely be sold at this price, it is just a few days earlier and a few days later.

Yang Chen is not in a hurry.

Take your time to find a buyer.

"No."

"Three million may be a little less, but boss Zhang, you cut off one million this time, which is breaking the bones! This is too cruel."

“Antiques are priced at the same price every year!”

"Last year's market is not suitable for this year, and its chicken heart bowl is not suitable for my lotus seed bowl."

"How much can Boss Zhang give you at most?"

"If the difference is too big, I will find another buyer."

Zhang Wenyu thought about it for a while: "I can add up to 20 or 220 million more. You can't add more. You know that I am a businessman and I want to make money when I buy it."

Yang Chen waved his hand and simply refused.

"Hey, are you obsessed with money?"

"That's almost it."

"They are all blue and white porcelain bowls from Ming Dynasty and Yongle. At other auction houses, they only cost 100 to 200 million yuan. Why is yours so much more expensive?"

Zhang Wenyu showed great respect for her grandfather and even gave her a small antique, so Lin Ruoxi couldn't help but stand up and speak for her boss.

Yang Chen glanced at her and said lightly.

"First, things are rare and valuable. There are only 6 such bowls left in the world. The other 5 are collected by museums in various countries. This is the only one that lives among the people."

"Second, this is an imperial product specially provided for the palace. It may have been used by Emperor Yongle."

"Thirdly, the underglaze green material of this blue and white lotus seed bowl uses an imported material [Suma Liqing] that was very rare at the time, so its value is naturally different from ordinary ones."

As soon as this explanation came out, Zhang Wenyu couldn't help but secretly nod his head in praise.

This guy is young, but he has a lot of knowledge about porcelain appraisal.

Even Mr. Lin, who was watching silently, gave a thumbs up at this moment: "I thought it was just luck that the Xiao Yang brothers picked up three leaks in a row. I couldn't tell that they have such a deep understanding of porcelain."

"Not bad."

"The young man does indeed have real abilities."

Hearing this, Yang Chen smiled.

Accept it with peace of mind.

I have a system, am I proud of it?

Ruo Xi didn't know whether what he said was true or false, but since grandpa didn't point out the error, it must be right, so he curled his lips and turned away.

"Brother Xiao Yang, I'll call you again, please wait for a moment." The points Yang Chen said are indeed the facts. Zhang Wenyu originally thought that he was young and might not know, but who knew that he would tell them one by one, and it would be a treasure trove of his own. Just found an excuse to increase the price.

After saying that, he got up and went to the inner room to make a phone call.

After a while, he came out and said that he could give up to 230 million yuan.

This price is already very close to the actual price given by the system.

It is estimated that Zhang Wenyu will not make much money if he changes hands.

Yang Chen thought for a while, but still refused.

Quoted a reserve price.

"The bottom is 248 million. If it works, take it. If it doesn't work, forget it."

250 doesn't sound good.

So Yang Chen took the initiative to lose 20,000 yuan.

But after hearing this price, Zhang Wenyu spread his hands and shook his head to forget it. He said that after accepting this price, he could only keep it for himself and could not resell it at all.

"Then there's no way."

You want to make money, and I want to make money, Yang Chen said hello, wrapped the lotus seed bowl and was about to get up and leave.

At this time, Mr. Lin stretched out his hand to invite him to sit down.

"Young man, wait a minute. I have a few friends who are very interested in porcelain from the Yongle period. I'll call them and ask them to come over and take a look."

"As long as they are interested, money is not an issue!"

……

After half an hour.

Mr. Lin's friend has arrived.

There are two in total.

The wind and fire are coming.

He has a square head and big ears, a rich face, and a smile like Maitreya Buddha.

He was tall, thin, well-dressed, and looked like a successful businessman.

"Here, let me introduce you."

Mr. Lin stood up and pointed to the middle-aged man with a square head and big ears: "This is Guo Xueren, a nationally registered senior art appraiser and appraiser, director of the Chunan Ancient Ceramics Art Museum, and honorary member of the China Second-hand Goods Industry Association. Vice president."

After speaking, he pointed to the tall, thin, businessman-looking man.

"This is Huang Ronglin, general manager of Tianyuan Group Company. He is also a member of the Chinese Collectors Association, vice chairman of Lin City Federation of Literary and Art Circles, chairman of Tianyuan Museum, and chairman of Tianyuan Shengshi Collection Co., Ltd."

As soon as a few titles were introduced, the identities of the two became clear.

One is more academic.

A businessman.

One is an expert.

One is a wealthy man who loves antiques.

"Mr. Lin, where is the Yongle blue and white bowl you mentioned? Take it out and show it to both of us."

The two people came in a hurry. Lin Lao had just finished the introduction. Before Yang Chen and others could be introduced, he shouted anxiously, looking like he was scrambling for the first place, as if he was afraid of being snatched away.

Mr. Lin chuckled.

"Don't rush, don't rush, the owner of the Yongle Blue and White Bowl is right in front of you."

After speaking, he pointed to Yang Chen and praised: "This young man has a very good eye and luck. He has picked up three missed ones here today."

"This Yongle blue and white bowl was picked up by him for 20 yuan."

"You can talk to yourselves later."

Picking up and missing three times in a day?
  Picked up a Yongle blue and white bowl for twenty yuan?

Upon hearing this, both of them opened their eyes wide, with expressions of disbelief and envy.

dog day.

Such vision.

Such luck.

It's simply outrageous.
