The rich people participating in the auction all saw that Li Mo was the boss of their group. However, the overall situation has been decided, and it is difficult for them to stay any longer.
Soon the antique shop became quiet, and the eight clerks who were standing behind the counter were now gathered together, waiting honestly for the new boss's arrangements, maybe they would lose their jobs.
"Mountain."
"Mr. Qin, what are your orders?"
"You immediately transfer everyone who is resting in the hotel, and then contact the embassy to rush over overnight."
Dashan's eyes suddenly brightened, revealing his brilliant light. No wonder Li Mo disdains bidding at all costs. It seems that this shop has a lot of goods.
"I'll transfer someone immediately."
"Steven." Li Mo shouted, and Steven hurriedly ran to his side and asked respectfully, "Mr. Qin, the agreement is ready and the procedures are complete. It will be signed by lawyer Gu Lishi later. Can."
"Well, you go tell the eight clerks and give them two days off and wait until May 1st to start work again. Each of them will be given a bonus of two thousand dollars. I hope they will do well in the future."
"Okay, Mr. Qin."
When Steven walked up to the clerks and said it, everyone smiled. He also carried a lot of cash with him, so the bonus was distributed directly on the spot.
"thank you boss."
"thank you boss."
The eight clerks expressed their respects in broken Chinese and then went home from get off work with their bonuses.
The door opened, and Sima Haotian and Ci Tou walked in, each holding a piece of porcelain in their hands.
"Mr. Qin, how about taking a look at these two pieces of porcelain?"
Li Mo first took the porcelain from Sima Haotian's hand, looked at it and said with a smile: "This is the Qing Daoguang pastel Flower and Bird Moon Vase."
Sima Haotian gave him a thumbs up, but Li Mo didn't get started at all. He just looked at it and concluded the origin of the porcelain, which made him marvel. The gap between him and Li Mo is not a little big, but a huge gap.
"Mr. Qin, please take a look." Ci Tou also handed the porcelain in his hand to Li Mo.
"Qing Jiaqing blue and white lotus pattern fruit water purification bottle. Although it is small, it is particularly exquisite."
Sima Haotian then looked around in surprise and asked softly: "What's going on?"
"Oh, I just spent 7.5 million US dollars to buy everything in this antique store. Mr. Sima, you can go and take a look at the porcelain on the antique shelves first, but don't be surprised. I have it in my heart. Be prepared, there are so many good things in this antique store.”
Sima Haotian coughed slightly and gave him a thumbs up. I'm afraid he is the only one who has the courage to buy an antique store while shopping. It's too exaggerated.
The agreement procedures were completed quickly, and the on-site office efficiency was very high. This made Li Mo look at him differently. If this were done in China, he didn't know how many trips it would take to complete the entire process.
Gulishi saw off the official representatives. He returned to the store and said, "Mr. Qin, that woman is still standing outside. Do you want her to come in?"
Li Mo had seen her a long time ago. If she hadn't bought this antique shop, she would have just followed. Later, I would have to sort out all the antiques here and ship them out overnight, so it would not be appropriate for her to stay.
At this time, several black men were passing by outside. They actually walked up to the woman and said something. She was so frightened that she went straight into the store.
"Let her stay for now." Li Mo shouted, "Close the door and close the curtains. Dashan, keep in touch with the others and let them come in directly when they arrive."
"yes."
Soon the door was locked and the curtains were drawn, so that nothing could be seen from the outside.
"Prick Tou, go to the back and see if there is a temporary warehouse. There should be some packaging boxes and foam boxes stored in it. If there are any, take out more."
"Yes, Mr. Qin."
After all, Sima Haotian couldn't control his emotions. He turned around and shouted excitedly: "Mr. Qin, come here and take a look. This seems to be a secret-color porcelain plate with a six-petal sunflower mouth from the Tang Dynasty."
Li Mo walked over and picked up the porcelain plate and took a closer look. The porcelain plate was about 4 centimeters high, about 26 centimeters in diameter, and about 15 centimeters in base diameter. The body had an oblique belly and a concave bottom. The middle was slightly folded outwards, and the mouth rim and the plate body were naturally formed. It has six petals, and there are typical secret-color porcelain burnt marks on the bottom.
The whole body of the plate is covered with green glaze, the glaze is bright and clear, the glaze layer is uniform, and the glaze surface is bright and bright, fully displaying its soft and pure characteristics. And under the light, the most miraculous phenomenon of "creating water out of nothing" of secret color porcelain is revealed. This is the top secret color porcelain.
Li Mo smiled and said: "I have so many museums in my hands, but there are only two pieces of Tang Dynasty secret color porcelain. This is the third piece I found. The things are good things, but because of the firing process and technology, the secret color porcelain is The historical value of colored porcelain is far greater than its market value. I remember that the highest auction record for secret colored porcelain in the Tang and Five Dynasties was just over 3 million yuan. But things are rare and valuable, so it is really a good thing."
Compared with those porcelains that cost tens of millions or more than 100 million, Tang Mi-color porcelain is not popular in the collection market. Sima Haotian is also excited because there are so few secret-color porcelains in existence, and every piece is an incredible genuine product.
"Mr. Qin, there are really a lot of things in the small warehouse. In addition to these packaging items, there are also many things like these porcelain sculptures placed on the shelves inside."
"Okay, everyone come over and help pack it." Li Mo put the Tang Dynasty six-petal Kui Kou secret color porcelain back on the counter and asked Thorn Tou to start packing it carefully.
"Everyone, you may have to work overtime until very late today. After everything here is finished, you can have a good rest in the hotel tomorrow. Everyone will get a generous bonus."
"For the sake of those generous bonuses you mentioned, it doesn't matter if we just work hard all night with you."
In May, he said whatever he wanted.
"Mr. Qin, let me help you."
Sima Haotian said modestly, and Li Mo stopped nagging him, he had to seize the time.
"The good stuff is at the back."
It was time to start showing off his skills. Li Mo walked to the Bogu rack, took a piece off the top and said, "This is a bowl with blue and gold dragon patterns engraved on it from the Xuande period of the Ming Dynasty."
"Spray blue is a low-temperature lead glaze with cobalt as the colorant. The blue glaze juice is blown on the surface of the fired white glaze vessel through a bamboo tube, forming spots of different shades and natural distribution, like clusters of snowflakes, hence the name.' Snowflake Blue', created and fired in the Xuande official kiln. This object has a unique shape because it looks like a helmet when turned upside down. It is also called a helmet bowl or a dice bowl, giving people a sense of stability. The entire object is made with conical arch craftsmanship and is exquisitely made. There are very few handed down vessels of this type, marked 5S.”
Sima Haotian wanted to appreciate it carefully, but Li Mo was very fast. He had already picked up the second piece of porcelain from the ancient shelf: "This is a large Xuande blue flower bouquet with lotuses from the Ming Dynasty, marked 3S."
"The third piece is a large bowl with red underglaze lotus pattern from Hongwu Ming Dynasty, marked 4S."
"The fourth piece is a Jihong glaze plate from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty, marked 2S."
"The fifth piece is a Ming Wanli blue and white Sanskrit lotus wash, marked 2S."
"The sixth item is a water bottle with a baby playing picture from the Jiaqing period of the Qing Dynasty, marked 2S."
Li Mo appraised them very quickly, and he took the pieces of genuine porcelain off the shelves with almost no hesitation. Everyone came up to help pack it carefully. Li Mo's strength once again exceeded their imagination.
"It turns out that the legend of the fairy eye is true. You can tell the truth from the lie at a glance. It's amazing. It's amazing."
What Sima Haotian saw from Li Mo's face was only confidence, which meant that he was confident that every piece of porcelain he took from the ancient shelf was authentic.
The people mobilized by Dashan finally arrived. There were ten people in total, and they also brought two mini trucks.
All genuine porcelain items were counted, and there were sixteen pieces in total.
"Steven, this sculpture, this one, and that sculpture, the ones I pointed out should be packed up and taken away directly. Remember to note the three words "artwork". They will be sorted out separately when the time comes."
"Understood, Mr. Qin."
In the sculpture area, Li Mo picked out three pieces.
"Mr. Qin, are you also proficient in the appraisal of foreign works of art?" Sima Haotian didn't want to ask at first, but seeing him casually pointing to a pose that didn't require appraisal at all, he couldn't help but ask.
"I don't understand." Li Mo spread his hands, "I am born with a keen sense of antiques. I can make more than 70% inferences about whether something is an antique or not just by looking at it. Hahaha, these are all It’s a foreign thing, there’s no need for us to discuss it here, let’s go to the gold, silver and jade area to see a lot of things passed down from the Qing Dynasty.”
The two of them walked to the counter of the gold, silver and jade area, and their eyes were immediately attracted by the various exquisite jade items displayed inside.
"The first one is a Hetian jade pendant with auspicious and auspicious patterns."
"The second item is a pile of Qinghetian jade dragon-shaped bracelets."
"The third item is a hollow jade sachet."
"The fourth piece is a clear jade ring."
