Seeing that Xiao Ran wanted to buy this fancy blue and white heart-turning vase, Jones couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Is this also an antique porcelain? It seems so, otherwise Sean wouldn't buy this porcelain."
While muttering to himself, he looked carefully at the Chinese porcelain.
This piece of porcelain has been collected for some time and has been kept in the store with almost no one paying attention to it.
Especially since this year, Chinese tourists have almost completely disappeared, and no one pays attention to this piece of porcelain.
If Xiao Ran hadn't pointed out that he wanted this piece of porcelain, Jones would have almost forgotten the existence of this piece of porcelain.
He thought he had some knowledge about this piece of porcelain and did not think it was a valuable antique porcelain.
At this time, it seemed again that there was nothing new to discover.
After looking at it for a moment, Jones looked back and asked in surprise:
"Sean, can you give us your opinion on this piece of Chinese porcelain? I'd really like to know more."
"This piece of porcelain has no mark. I can't tell which dynasty it was fired in. It's hard to tell whether it's authentic or not."
"To tell you the truth, after I received this piece of porcelain, I asked someone to do an appraisal, but I didn't come to a definite appraisal conclusion."
Xiao Ran looked at the shopkeeper, pondered for a moment, and then said with a smile:
"I'm very sorry, Jones, I won't tell you what I think of these porcelains until the sale is completed."
"After completing this series of transactions, I will introduce my views."
"But whether my opinion is correct or not is a matter for two people to discuss. Just listen to it."
After the words fell, Jones couldn't help but fell silent.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded helplessly and said:
"Okay, Sean, this is a reasonable thing, and I can't force it."
"Our business relies on our eyesight. If I make a fortune today, it only means that my eyesight is not good."
"After the transaction is completed, I hope you can help me solve this doubt."
The reason why I say helpless is because Jones urgently needs to sell these antique porcelains and has no choice at all!
For him, the most important thing now is to survive!
As for whether the treasure will be lost, we can only leave it to fate!
"Of course, no problem, Jones, you can make an offer."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded.
Jones then began to list the quotations for these antique porcelains.
"This blue and white porcelain jar is priced at US$1,500, and the vase next to it is priced at US$2,000..."
The quotation given by Jones was quite fair, only slightly higher than the market price. He did not ask for a sky-high price just because Xiao Ran was a super rich man!
It’s not that he doesn’t want to, it’s that he doesn’t dare!
Jones knew very well that if he asked for excessive prices, he would most likely screw up this series of transactions!
Of course, the price he gave for the Yongzheng Blue and White Colorful Heart-turning Vase was far from the true value of this treasure!
While he was quoting, Xiao Ran was not idle either.
He put the Yongzheng blue and white five-color heart-turning vase on the ground and looked at the condition of its feet.
As Jones said, this piece of antique china has no distinction.
The soles of the feet were bare, not a word on them!
Seeing this scene, surprised exclamations immediately sounded in several live broadcast rooms.
"I'll go! This piece of porcelain really has no mark, so how can you tell it's a Yongzheng blue and white multi-colored heart-turning vase?"
"Xiao Ran, did you make a mistake?"
"How can you be sure at a glance that this is a treasure and not a fake without looking at the name?"
Hearing these questions, Xiao Ran just smiled softly and did not give any response.
Several appraisal experts who knew about this national treasure also remained silent and didn't say much!
They were waiting for Xiao Ran to reveal the answer, and they didn't mean to take the exam!
Within moments, Jones had quoted prices on all the antique china.
After listening to his quotation, Xiao Ran pondered for a moment, then smiled and shook his head and said:
"Jones, your price is fair, but it's still higher than the market price."
"With the current deserted market conditions, it is obviously impossible to close a transaction with such a quotation."
"Also, if I buy these porcelain, I will have to bear a lot of taxes and fees, as well as some risks, such as the risk of cross-border transportation."
"I will accept these porcelain only if I give you a 30% discount on the price you quoted. You can consider it."
Before he could finish his words, Jones exclaimed in surprise.
"Ah! 30% off everything, did I hear you right?"
"You heard it right, only in this way can these transactions be concluded."
Xiao Ran smiled and nodded, but his tone was firm.
Seeing this situation, Jones suddenly fell silent.
In fact, he had no other choice at all.
After a moment, he nodded in pain and said:
"Okay, Sean, I accept your terms. All these antique porcelains are 30% off."
"I need these deals to survive, so I have no choice but to give up!"
Xiao Ran stepped forward and shook hands with this guy, smiled and said:
"Deal, Jones, it's a pleasure working with you."
"As for reluctantly giving up love, there's no such thing as that!"
"I know a little bit about how much money you can make on these porcelains."
"I'm sure you won't sell these porcelains without more than ten times the profit."
Hearing this, Jones' old face couldn't help but blush, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
If it doesn’t open for three years, it will last for three years if it opens!
The same goes for foreign antique stores, and Jones’ Antique Store is no exception!
The next moment, this guy changed the topic.
"It's been a pleasure working with you, Sean, and thank you for your generosity."
"Now can you tell me what you think of this blue and white porcelain vase?"
Xiao Ran shook his head gently.
"There's no hurry about this, I'll wait until I see the other items in the store."
"There are a lot of good things in your store. If there is anything you like, maybe I will buy a few more and check out together then."
Before he finished speaking, Jones' face was already full of joy.
Naturally, he was eager for such a good thing.
Next, Xiao Ran walked to another display stand nearby and admired the things displayed on that display stand.
As he said, there are some good things in this antique store.
These include antique porcelain, paintings and sculptures, and other antique art, as well as second-hand luxury goods and more.
However, the only thing that really moved Xiao Ran's heart was the Yongzheng blue and white heart-turning vase.
The rest of the antique artworks and second-hand luxury goods were not within his sight at all.
The many fans in the live broadcast room had their eyes shining brightly.
Of course, they didn't want to let go of this opportunity to pick up a bargain, so they looked for their favorite treasures and asked Xiao Ran to help identify them.
If those things are genuine and the price is right, they will ask Xiao Ran to help buy them and add some to their collection!
Xiao Ran also accepted everyone's requests!
However, he also explained that today is just the opportunity.
The next good things he finds in other antique shops and galleries, no matter how big or small, he will either get them for himself or add a little reserve for the company!
Fans in the live broadcast room who want to buy those treasures can only go back and bid in the live broadcast room, or go to the company website to buy!
Everyone has long been accustomed to this model, so there is no objection!
In the blink of an eye, nearly forty minutes passed, and Xiao Ran finally finished browsing the antique store.
In the process, he helped fans select more than ten or twenty treasures.
Most of these treasures are antique works of art, as well as a few second-hand luxury goods, etc. Each has its own characteristics and has certain collection value!
Next, Xiao Ran asked Jones to bid again.
This time Jones learned the lesson and directly quoted a price of 30% off the market price, eliminating the need for haggling.
Xiao Ran had no objection to these quotations, so he shook hands with Jones happily and concluded this series of transactions!
In the blink of an eye, all transactions were completed.
Xiao Ran made the transfer on the spot and transferred all the payment to Jones.
Moments later, Jones received a confirmation call from the bank manager.
After confirming that all the payment had been received, a bright smile broke out on the guy's face.
The original sad look on his face disappeared in an instant, and he looked ten years younger!
Seeing his appearance, everyone laughed.
Immediately afterwards, Xiao Ran asked his employees and two clerks who followed him to pack all the treasures he had just purchased and prepare them for transportation.
While everyone was busy, Jones suddenly said with great expectation:
"Sean, can you tell me about the blue and white porcelain now? I really want to know about it!"
"If I guessed correctly, it should be a top-notch antique cultural relic that is worth a lot of money. Unfortunately, I don't know the goods, so you guy picked it up in vain!"
"Even so, I still want to know the real situation so as not to be confused!"
Obviously, this guy has woken up!
He clearly realized that he had lost a treasure and might have missed a priceless treasure!
Following his words, everyone at the scene and tens of thousands of fans in the live broadcast room all looked at Xiao Ran, waiting for him to reveal the answer!
Xiao Ran did not continue to talk about it, and immediately gave an explanation.
He walked straight to the Yongzheng blue and white multi-colored heart-turning vase, turned the porcelain vase over, then pointed to a pattern on the porcelain vase and said:
"Who said this piece of antique porcelain has no mark? This pattern is actually the mark of this piece of porcelain, but it's just very hidden!"
"It is difficult for people who do not have a deep understanding of Chinese culture to discover this hidden distinction..."
Following his introduction, everyone looked at the pattern on the porcelain bottle, and everyone was full of curiosity.
However, everyone still found nothing.
At this moment, Xiao Ran continued to introduce:
"The environment depicted in this meticulous painting is a fruitful lychee garden, with red lychees hanging all over the branches."
"And in this lychee garden in the mountains, there is an exquisite mountain house with brackets and flying eaves, which is vaguely visible!"
"The combination of red lychee and this mountain house is the name of this porcelain, red lychee mountain house!"
As soon as he said this, there was an exclamation of exclamation in several live broadcast rooms.
"Ah! Hongli Shanfang, isn't that the title of Emperor Yongzheng?"
"Holy shit! There is such a porcelain brand, it is simply unheard of!"
Hearing this exclamation, Xiao Ran couldn't help but nodded proudly.
"Everyone is right. Hongli Shanfang is the title of Emperor Yongzheng of the Qing Dynasty. It is rarely seen."
"As far as I know, there is only one piece of porcelain in history where the Hongli Shanfang hall number is painted on the surface of porcelain in this hidden and imaginative way!"
"This is the priceless treasure that was once stored in the Old Summer Palace and was later stolen by the British invaders, the Qing Yongzheng blue and white multi-colored heart-turning vase!"
"Now, this priceless treasure is in front of everyone, and everyone can appreciate it."
"It won't be long before this treasure will be transported to Beijing and returned to its hometown!"
Before he finished speaking, the scene and several live broadcast rooms were already completely boiling.
"I'll go! It's so awesome. This is definitely a national treasure-level antique cultural relic!"
"Who says it isn't? Based on the hidden and imaginative name of Hongli Shanfang, this Yongzheng blue and white heart-turning vase is absolutely priceless!"
Many fans in the live broadcast room exclaimed and were very excited.
Elaine and Fang Yufei, who were at the scene, started dancing with excitement.
Looking at Jones and the two clerks again, they were stunned on the spot!
After a while, Jones asked tremblingly:
"Sean, can you tell me the estimated value of this blue and white porcelain? It must be very amazing, right?"
Xiao Ran glanced at this guy sympathetically, and then gave an estimate.
"This is a piece of antique porcelain that has been inherited in an orderly manner and is also a legendary national treasure. It is of immeasurable value!"
“If I had to give a valuation, it would be at least over US$50 million!”
"Of course, it will never appear on the antique market again. This valuation makes no sense at all!"
Not surprisingly, this valuation shocked everyone.
"Ah! At least 50 million US dollars, how is this possible?"
Jones hugged his head and exclaimed, his eyes almost flying out of his sockets!
Looking at the performance of other people, they are almost the same!
