Chapter 386 Three birds with one arrow
"Is it excellence?"
Seeing many guests walking toward the booth of Zhuo Zhuo Antique Store, Yan Ruxing couldn't believe it. It was Xue Chen and Wang Dong who brought out the Qianlong pastels.
How is this possible? Even a relatively low-priced piece of Qianlong pastel color is worth five to six million, while a high-quality piece can reach nearly 100 million, which is no less valuable than the porcelain produced by the five famous kilns of the Southern Song Dynasty. It is rarely seen on the market. The two of them are
Where did you get the Qianlong pastels? Did you buy them? But I haven't heard of anyone doing such a large transaction recently.
Seeing that the guests who had just gathered around the booth of his Wanrui antique shop turned around to look at the Qianlong pastel paintings when they heard that they were there, and they were mostly gone in a while. Yan Ruxing paused for a moment and walked towards it.
.
As soon as the Qianlong Pastel Paint appeared, it immediately became the most eye-catching antique in the hall. Regardless of its rarity and value, the guests present wanted to take a look and play with it themselves.
Qi Hu was sitting next to Xue Chen. He was stunned for a moment when he looked at the Qianlong Pastel Flower Dressing Box with Butterflies and Flowers. He was secretly speechless. This one was also salvaged from the lotus pond. Thinking of this, he took a deep breath.
The first two antiques together were worth two million. He was surprised, but he could accept it. But when he saw this Qianlong pastel painting, he couldn't sit still and couldn't calm down. This luck was too terrible, let alone what was under the lotus pond.
The pile of stuff that was salvaged, covered in mud and smelly, was actually worth so much.
At this time, Yan Ruxing also came over. He walked to the square table and looked at the pastel dressing box held by another guest. Strange colors flashed in his eyes. Based on his decades of experience, he could tell at a glance that this pastel dressing box was
Ninety percent of it is authentic.
"It turns out to be Qianlong pastels..."
When he really saw Zhuo Zhuo take out a piece of Qianlong pastel paint, he was really surprised, because he really couldn't figure out where this pastel color came from. He knew many collectors in Haicheng City, and
There are only two or three Qianlong pastels in their hands.
Without exception, they are all hidden in safes and will not be displayed easily, let alone sold. Moreover, there is no such pastel-colored dressing box.
His mind suddenly moved, and he suddenly thought of the batch of gold and silver ingots he had seen in Wang Dong's hands. He had once wondered whether Zhuo Zhuo Antique Shop had a unique channel to obtain some antiques. Now it seems that it is indeed possible. This pastel piece
Obviously it should be obtained from the same channel.
The appearance of Qianlong pastels attracted more than half of the guests present to watch and appreciate it. Xu Ming, who was accompanying Jessica to casually watch, glanced at the direction of the Zhuoyue antique store's booth and frowned deeply.
"Qianlong pastel? Where did he get it?"
He also likes to collect antiques. He has spent nearly 100 million on antiques in the past two years, but he does not have a piece of Qianlong pastels. Because Qianlong pastels are so rare that few people are willing to buy them. Now I see Xue Chen actually has one
I suddenly felt very unhappy when I saw a piece of Qianlong pastel color that I loved but could not get.
At this moment, Xue Chen was not idle, but was quickly running around the booths of antique shops. The last antique taken out by each antique shop was met with his "venomous hand", and all the spiritual energy was sucked away.
When I arrived at the booth of Wanrui Antique Shop, I picked up the gold-black Xuande furnace and appreciated it in my hands. I saw that it was indeed an imitation from the Xuande period, not the batch made under the supervision of Emperor Xuande. It was worth a lot of money.
It is incomparable to the Xuande stove in my hand.
After absorbing all the spiritual energy, I put it down and stopped looking at it. I had already seen the authentic Xuande furnace, so I had no interest in seeing the imitation.
Just in time, Yan Ruxing, who was walking back, saw this scene. Seeing that Xue Chen didn't seem to be very interested in his Xuande furnace, he asked with a smile: "Xiao Xue, why, this Xuande furnace can't catch your eye?"
Xue Chen looked at Yan Ruxing, who was smiling, and his eyes moved. Unexpectedly, Yan Ruxing's eyes were quite treacherous, but naturally he couldn't tell the truth. That would be too offending. He smiled and replied: "How could it be? Mr. Yan's Xuande
The furnace is a rare quality product on the market, very good.”
Yan Ruxing simply nodded and couldn't help but ask: "Xue Chen, where did you get that Qianlong pastel?"
"Well, it's hard to say." This is not the first person to ask. Xue Chen's answer is always "It's hard to say," which means don't ask. I won't tell you if you ask. It's not convenient to say.
Seeing that Xue Chen refused to say anything, Yan Ruxing stopped asking, but he still couldn't help but guess, and sighed: "Xiao Xue, I didn't expect that your abilities are really getting better and better. The three treasures you brought today are all
Very good, every item is good and rare."
"Don't say that, I can't compare to Mr. Yan." Xue Chen said with a polite smile.
The third round of treasure hunting lasted the longest, reaching nearly two hours, because the last treasures taken out by each antique shop were worthy of careful appreciation and appreciation, and any one of them was worth more than a million.
Three of them have reached nearly 10 million, and they are also the ones that the guests present are talking about the most. One is a Xuande furnace that was imitated by the people during the Xuande period in Wanrui Antique Shop, and the other was presented by Longteng Antique Shop.
A large blue and white narrow mouth plum pattern vase from the official kiln of the Qing Dynasty, and the last one is a Qianlong pastel dressing box from the Excellence Antique Shop.
The market value of these three antiques is around tens of millions. It is difficult to distinguish between these three antiques. The Xuande furnace is the best because it has a large door. It is a boutique of Xuande furnaces, while the blue and white vase in Longteng Antique Shop
The victory is easy to reflect in terms of value, because blue and white porcelain is so popular in the market.
Xue Chen's Qianlong Pastel Paint is rare and exquisite, but its only drawback is that it is not a large vase or a typical utensil, but a relatively unpopular dressing box, otherwise the value would be at least five times higher!
The guests present were very satisfied with being able to see and play with three antiques worth tens of millions, and felt that the trip was worthwhile. Similarly, Yan Ruxing and Cai Yuanming also achieved their goals, as proved by this treasure appreciation event.
Thanks to the strength of the two antique shops, they both brought out superb treasures to attract the attention of the guests present.
But Zhuo Zhuo Antique Shop has undoubtedly become the biggest dark horse in this treasure hunt, attracting no less attention than Wan Rui and Long Teng. After all, it is only an antique shop that has been open for a year, and it has already been able to sell products worth thousands of dollars.
Wan's antiques are even more rare than those from established and powerful stores like Wan Rui and Long Teng!
It can be said that Zhuo Zhuo took a ride on Wan Rui and Long Teng and created a free and loud advertisement! He became one of the biggest winners of this treasure hunt!
The treasure appreciation party came to a successful conclusion. Xue Chen and Wang Dong repacked the three antiques into the box and carried them downstairs to the hotel's underground parking lot. Coincidentally, his car and Xu Ming's car
It was only one parking space away, and Xu Ming and Jessica also arrived at the car at the same time.
Xu Ming glanced at Xue Chen coldly, and couldn't help but look at the three boxes Xue Chen was holding. Knowing that one of them contained the Qianlong pastel, he couldn't help but ask: "Xue Chen, what are you doing?"
Where did you get that Qianlong pastel?"
"Picked it up." Xue Chen shrugged and said with a smile.
"You!" Seeing Xue Chen teasing him, Xu Ming's face turned slightly cold.
"Forget it if you don't believe it." Xue Chen said nonchalantly, thinking that it is too difficult to be an honest person nowadays. As for the most basic trust between people, he didn't believe it when he told the truth. Alas.
On the side, Wang Dong also laughed.
Ignoring Xu Ming, Xue Chen turned his eyes to Jessica, with a passionate smile on his face again: "Miss Jessica, I wonder if you are lucky..."
But before he finished speaking, Jessica gritted her teeth, opened the car door as if she were avoiding the plague, and got in. Apparently she no longer wanted to pay attention to Xue Chen and couldn't bear it anymore!
Xu Ming said bitterly: "Xue Chen, stop daydreaming. Jessica will not accept your invitation. If you understand, you can get away as far as you want."
Looking at Xu Ming with an angry look on his face, Xue Chen didn't even bother to argue with him verbally. It was meaningless. Compared with Xu Ming's grievances and Gu Yu's problems, they were completely child's play and not worth mentioning.
Seeing Jessica hiding in the car and not wanting to talk to him, he raised the corner of his mouth and watched Xu Ming drive away before getting into his car.
Wang Dong, who was sitting in the passenger seat, shook his head and sighed: "The falling flower is intentional, but the flowing water is ruthless. Lao Xue, that foreign girl named Jessica ignores you. You must not be sad because of it. Although you have lost a flower,
Wild rose, but there is a big forest behind you."
Xue Chen said calmly: "You should pay more attention to yourself. I heard that you are also interested in the culture of the former Soviet Union and want to communicate with two Russian girls. I wish you good luck."
First, he sent Fatty Wang back to the store, and then drove to his residence on Jingyun Street. Xue Chen first put the three antiques back into the safe, changed into a set of loose clothes, and sat back on the sofa in the living room.
He lowered his head and reached out to pull out the ancient jade worn on his chest, holding it tightly in his hand. When he felt the surging spiritual energy in the ancient jade, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and couldn't help but feel excited in his heart.
For him, this treasure hunt can be said to be killing three birds with one stone!
First of all, he gave a loud advertisement to Zhuoyue Antique Shop. Secondly, and more importantly, he absorbed a large amount of spiritual energy, which was more abundant than he expected. Now the spiritual energy content in the ancient jade has reached more than half, reaching 100%.
Fifty-one!
In the first round, the reward treasure absorbed 4% of the spiritual energy, in the second round, it absorbed 8%, and in the third round, it absorbed 13%. Together, it filled up 20% of the ancient jade.
Five, exactly one quarter!
This third sculpture succeeded in making Jessica hate him even more and not want to see him anymore. She couldn't help but think that she would never have thought in her dreams that the ancient jade she had been looking for was right under her nose.
Chapter completed!
