Li Mo spent more than 20 minutes selecting seven pieces of porcelain, paid 3,500 yuan, packed up and left.
"Uncle Junior, let me get it for you."
Chen Xiaoyan wanted to take a few from him, but Li Mo kept one for himself and gave the rest to her and said, "Throw them all away."
Well!
Chen Xiaoyan looked at the remaining piece in his hand: "What kind of porcelain is that?"
"It's not valuable. It can be sold for three to four hundred thousand at most. It's very ordinary. It's a pastel flower and bird plate made in Daoguangnian of the Qing Dynasty."
Chen Xiaoyan felt that it was unwise to talk about money with her junior uncle. It was too irritating to her little heart. In his eyes, it doesn't matter whether it's money or not, as long as it's an antique.
The two of them moved forward for another ten meters. Suddenly, Chen Xiaoyan pointed to an antique shop on the roadside and said, "Uncle, isn't that the Qi Jingzhai Antique Shop that the taxi driver mentioned? Do you want us to go in and take a look inside?" What good things are there? This antique store has a wide range of roads, and even the taxi drivers from outside have joined forces. It’s surprising that there are good things.”
"If you're interested, let's go in and have a look, but don't say anything, just follow my wishes."
"Don't worry, little uncle, I can guarantee this."
The two walked into Qijingzhai. There were many people looking at things inside, almost a dozen, which was rare in antique shops. Although Gu Yunxuan in the Demon City is so famous, there is no such prosperous business scene, and Qi Jingzhai has other customers coming in one after another.
The shop assistants inside are constantly introducing each antique to the customers, and most of the customers also show interest. If they enter the price negotiation process, they will be respectfully invited to the inner room. Bargaining in public is definitely not possible.
Li Mo and the others came in, and immediately a woman in her thirties came up with a smile.
"welcome."
"Hello, I would like to ask, do you want to accept genuine porcelain in your store?"
"Genuine porcelain?" The female clerk looked at Li Mo and Chen Xiaoyan, then nodded and said, "As long as it is genuine porcelain, we will accept it."
"Don't worry, the porcelain is definitely authentic. If you have expert appraisals, you can appraise it first. We have brought the items."
Li Mo pointed to the packaging box in Chen Xiaoyan's hand.
"Okay, wait a moment, I'll report to the boss."
"good."
After Li Mo waited for the clerk to leave, he whispered to Chen Xiaoyan: "You will keep an eye on the person who appraised it later. You can't leave your sight."
"clear."
Li Mo then walked to the glass cabinet next to the wall. It seemed that the owner of this antique shop knew how to market. Generally, antique stores use antique shelves and the like, and only those that organize collections and exhibitions use aluminum alloy glass cabinets. , plus lights.
At least the scene in front of him made him feel that the value of these high imitations had increased a lot.
Qi Jingzhai's route is the same as that of Gu Yunxuan in the magic city of high-quality imitations. The difference is that Gu Yunxuan relies on its own reputation, while Qi Jingzhai relies on cooperation through various channels.
In just this moment, two or three groups of people had already made transactions. The clerk helped pack the items carefully, and suddenly there was room for more than a dozen pieces of porcelain. Then someone was seen taking out other porcelain pieces one by one from the backyard and replenishing them.
At this time, Chen Xiaoyan had already communicated with the shopkeeper. Li Mo was going to go over and listen to how the other party appraised it. Before leaving, he glanced at the newly added porcelain, and one of them suddenly emitted a dark gray halo. , and then spread out into circles of light.
It was a carmine red enamel bowl with thousand-leaf lotus pattern.
Speaking of enamel, the Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong dynasties were the most prosperous during the Qing Dynasty. Especially the Kangxi dynasty, there are very few enamels in existence. If one can be produced, it can be described as sky-high price.
Just when Li Mo was about to take it out and examine it carefully, Chen Xiaoyan suddenly said very unhappy: "I only offered 150,000 yuan. We found a boss before, and they all offered 350,000 yuan, but we didn't sell it. You only offered 20,000 yuan." One hundred thousand, do you think we are noobs?"
Pushing the hat down on his head, Li Mo immediately walked over and stood next to Chen Xiaoyan and said, "Little sister, how much does the boss bid?"
"Brother, they only offered 200,000 yuan. How about we go to the magic city again? After all, we can sell it for 150,000 yuan more."
"Okay, let's put it away and leave."
Chen Xiaoyan immediately stepped forward to repack the porcelain. The man in his fifties hurriedly smiled and said: "Boy, this light-year pastel flower and bird porcelain is indeed genuine. We must also make some business. . If you put it up for auction, you can get more than 300,000 yuan, but after deducting various expenses, you can get the most, I mean up to 300,000 yuan. You guys go to the magic city, just in case Seeing that you are in a hurry to make a move, I will haggle with you. I don’t know how much I can offer in the end. If the deal is not done in a righteous way, I will offer a maximum of 250,000 yuan. If it works, we will make a deal."
Chen Xiaoyan looked at Li Mo.
Li Mo hesitated for a moment and then said: "Boss, we still have a lot at home, and the price is much lower than what we expected. But this is our first time dealing with each other. We can make a deal for 250,000, but we will bring a few more in a few days." If the items come over, you can't bid so low. If it weren't for tight money, the old man at home would really not dare to take out his inventory and resell it."
When the boss heard this, he immediately became energetic. It seemed that the man in front of him was a prodigal type, otherwise he would not have deliberately covered most of his face so that his true appearance could not be seen clearly.
"Sir, once you get it, you will get it again. As long as we have the opportunity to cooperate again, the price will definitely satisfy you."
"Just say this to the boss, today's business will be done according to your wishes. By the way, I will choose some porcelain from you and take it home to recharge. You can't rip me off at this price."
"Easy to say." The boss leaned forward slightly, raised a finger and whispered to him while avoiding other people's eyes, "I'll give you one thousand pieces at the cost price. They are all high-quality and high-quality imitations."
"It's great, then I can just take ten of them."
Li Mo was really casual and seemed to believe what the boss said. He didn't choose at all. He walked to the glass cabinet and took it from one place to another, and handed it to the female clerk to pack directly.
Chen Xiaoyan, on the other hand, went through the transaction procedures with the boss. When the money arrived, the ten pieces of porcelain selected by Li Mo were packed.
"Boss, take your leave."
Li Mo walked out of Qi Jingzhai carrying the porcelain, then took off his hat and glasses, and wiped his face with the wet tissue he brought. At this time, a middle-aged man and woman happened to be entering Qijingzhai. They took one look at Li Mo's face and entered the store without any reaction.
】
"Mr. Zhang, you and your wife haven't been to the store for a long time. You want a few pieces this time, and they are all the best."
The boss has just received a pastel flower and bird plate made in Daoguang, Qing Dynasty, and is very happy. Seeing old customers coming, the smile becomes even brighter.
"Mr. Qian, we have just returned from traveling abroad. My Chinese-style villa has been renovated, so I need to buy some porcelain for decoration at home. But Mr. Qian, you have always said how exquisite and beautiful the high-imitation porcelain in your store is. , later we went to Kyoto to visit the Gu Yunxuan Museum, where the porcelain made by Mr. Li was so good.
That's it.
"
The owner of the antique shop saw him stop talking and couldn't help but ask: "What's going on?"
But Mr. Zhang did not answer him. Instead, he turned to look at his wife and asked, "Do you think the young man you met at the door just now looks familiar? Does he look like that Li Mo?"
His wife suddenly patted her thigh and said, "Yes, it should be him. I was just wondering where I had seen him before. Yes, that person just now was Li Mo. Mr. Qian, what was Li Mo looking for here just now?" Yet?"
The owner of the antique shop had a bad feeling in his heart and asked hurriedly: "Mr. Zhang, is the Li Mo you are talking about not the same Li Mo?"
"Didn't he just buy a lot of porcelain from your store? Don't you know who he is?"
The owner of the antique shop suddenly panicked: "How could he appear in Kundi?"
Mr. Zhang said with a strange expression: "Didn't you see the news? It's been posted all over the Internet. Li Mo is in Kundi right now, and he was tricked by an unscrupulous taxi driver."
The owner of the antique shop was dumbfounded, and it took him a while to realize: "It's a treasure, it's a treasure. Who packed the porcelain for him just now?"
The female clerk ran over quickly, and she was obviously more panicked. Other customers in the store who were choosing porcelain also stopped temporarily to look over.
"What kind of porcelain did that man choose just now?"
The antique shop proprietress asked anxiously.
"Boss, I just put the porcelain on, and I haven't had time to put the labels on it yet."
"Then think about it carefully. Did he tell you to be careful when packing?"
The female clerk nodded quickly and said: "It's just one, and I was asked to package it carefully separately. I was very impressed because the bowl was very beautiful. I have pictures on my phone that were taken before."
"Then why don't you find it quickly and show it to me?"
The female clerk was a little confused and finally found the picture. When the owner of the antique store saw it, he immediately reached out and covered his head.
"Boss, are you okay?"
"Let me ask you, why haven't I seen this porcelain before?"
"Boss, I got this from an old man for 800 yuan at a stall outside. At that time, I wanted to appraise and reimburse you. At that time, you happened to be negotiating a deal of 100,000 yuan, so you just asked me It’s accounted for, so.
. "
"It's a treasure, my mother, it must be a treasure." The owner of the antique shop shouted to the sky.
"Mr. Qian, what's going on?"
Mr. Zhang saw that he was a little crazy, so he asked hurriedly for fear that something would happen to him.
"Judging from the picture, it is a carmine red ground enamel thousand-leaf lotus pattern bowl made by Emperor Kangxi. If it is authentic, it would be worth at least 60 million yuan. My special code was a super 250, and it was sold for 1,000 yuan. "
As he spoke, the owner of the antique shop sat down on the ground and burst into tears: "I was blinded by lard. I thought I made him hundreds of thousands, but he turned around and made me 60 million. I'm so stupid." I’m home and I don’t want to live anymore.”
"Mr. Qian, don't be so pessimistic. Maybe that person is not Li Mo, or maybe the porcelain is not a genuine product made by Emperor Kangxi at all?"
"No, it must be, who is Li Mo? He is a top treasure appraiser known as the fairy eye. If he didn't like it, he would easily transfer the pastel flower and bird plate made in Daoguang to me at a price of hundreds of thousands. ?”
Everyone in the antique store was silent. You tried your best to make more money, but in the end, they took advantage of you.
A bowl is worth 60 million yuan, which is really a sky-high price. Everything sounds magical, and perhaps only a god-like figure like Li Mo can do it easily.
Li Mo gave the other nine pieces of porcelain to a young owner of a street stall outside, leaving the carmine red enamel bowl alone.
"Uncle Junior, there are really leaks in Qi Jingzhai that can be picked up."
"Haha, so lucky."
"Is this expensive?"
"It's okay. It's a relatively rare carmine red enamel thousand-leaf lotus bowl made in the Kangxi year. It's worth almost 60 million yuan. You cooperated well just now, and my uncle will give you a bonus alone."
"No, no, no, I still had 240,000 on my card just now."
"Then take it as your share of the bonus."
The two walked out of Antique Street. There were six black Porsche Cayennes lined up on the roadside, and then twenty burly men walked out one after another.
"boss."
A man in his early thirties shouted respectfully
"I remember Xiaojun called you Lao Tian before?"
"Yes, boss, I am two years older than Mr. Chen. Mr. Chen has arranged for me to protect you this time. If you need anything, just ask."
"Let's go back to the hotel first."
Back at the hotel, Li Mo took out the bowl and placed it on the table to admire it carefully.
The diameter of this bowl is about 11 centimeters. The edge of the ring is neatly cut and trimmed. The texture is delicate. The rouge ground is thick and thick. The outer wall is covered with lotus flowers. The lotus flowers are wrapped or blooming. The lotus leaves are curled up or withered. It is elegant and interesting. True, graceful and colorful.
The paintings of lotuses and lotus scrolls are very wonderful. The inscription "Kangxi Year System" on the bottom is a two-line four-character blue regular script inscription, and the craftsmanship is refined.
This Qing Kangxi carmine ground enamel thousand-leaf lotus bowl is definitely the top enamel porcelain in the three dynasties of Kangxi, Yongzong and Qianlong.
"Lao Tian, charter a flight to send this bowl back to Kyoto."
"Yes, boss."
"Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"
"Five million in cash has been withdrawn, and the cars are all rented locally. I will also send people to explore the way for the people you mentioned. There will be news tomorrow morning at the latest."
"Okay, you will be the team leader for this mission. You can order whatever you want to eat in the evening, except wine."
"Okay, boss."
At night, Li Mo was eating iced watermelon in his room when his cell phone suddenly rang. It was Master calling.
"Master, have you had dinner?"
"Can you please stop messing around?"
Yanagawa Qing said curiously, while Song Yuanning and Liu Yingying, who were sitting next to him, each held a baby and snickered.
"Master, your endless criticism has confused me. What happened?"
"Don't you know what you did today? Let me ask you, did you complain that you got stabbed in Kundi? Did you pick up two leaks in the antique city, first the Qing Daoguang pastel flower and bird plate, and then the Qing Daoguang pastel flower and bird plate? A carmine red enamel bowl with a thousand-leaf lotus pattern made by Emperor Kangxi?"
"Master, how did you know?"
"How do I know? Now everyone in China knows what you did. You can go online and read the news later. I really admire you. If you don't cause trouble for a day, your whole body will feel uncomfortable."
