Chapter 615 It's Better to Talk About Money Directly and Worry-Free

Even if colorless jadeite is worthless for many years, it also depends on the water used to plant the jadeite, as well as the craftsmanship and cultural value of the sculptor.

But what the Celestials valued the most, to the Europeans and Americans, they couldn't understand at all.

There is also the landscape painting of the braided dynasty. In the eyes of Europeans and Americans, because of the short history, and the artist has no reputation in Europe and the United States, they are unwilling to let them take it home and hang it on the wall.

But in the eyes of old man Guan, although the author of these sixteen paintings is indeed not well-known, it is definitely not something that can be bought for a few thousand dollars.

If Li Changheng saw this, at least he would think of several Qing Dynasty painters who would be worth hundreds or even tens of millions of RMB for a painting in the future.

But at this time, these landscapes, figures, and flower-and-bird paintings that will be hyped up in the future are hung on the walls casually like mass-produced handicrafts.

As for purple sand pots, snuff bottles, inkstones, ancient inks, seals, and coins, Old Man Guan easily saw several antiques that were no worse than the treasures in his own collection.

Even a dozen plates of dark red and shiny Wenwan walnuts were placed in a cardboard box like garbage.

Old man Guan almost reached out to pick up a pair of extinct old-fashioned walnut hats.

Suppressing the excitement in my heart, after thinking about it for a while, I realized that these treasures should have been brought over by Guojun bosses and businessmen who ran from the mainland to live in the United States more than 20 years ago.

Although things are not considered treasures in this era, the number of more than 400 pieces is too much.

So much so that the old man Guan, who always felt that he was also a great collector, was even thinking about whether to wait until all these things were bought.

Taking advantage of the fact that Henry Lee doesn't understand old Beijing's gadgets, he secretly withdrew some good small things such as walnuts, snuff bottles, and purple clay pots?

Fortunately, the old man Guan quickly realized that his apprentice had only been three months old, and he had already deposited a salary of tens of thousands of Hong Kong dollars in a bank on Hong Kong Island, as well as a bonus of 30,000 Hong Kong dollars.

I also think of the Song Dynasty's "Returning to Fishing at Sunset", Tang Bohu's "Spring Outing" and six three-color maids who have been transported back to Hong Kong Island.

Only then did he forcefully suppress the calculations in his heart, and kept muttering nonsense that it was not his own things that he could not take, and that he had to take a long-term view.

Then came the substantive bargaining, the relevant old man, the old fox, pointed at the antiques and picked faults, and Yuan Hua, the old Jiang Hu, cooperated.

Fred originally thought that he would be able to accept it if he sold it for 60,000 to 700,000 yuan, but after listening to Yuan Hua's translation of the old man Guan's words, he wished he could get rid of these two old guys.

But Fred, whose real purpose was not in the antiques, finally accepted the $400,000 check signed by Judd.

As for why the price is no longer lowered, it is nothing more than the old man Guan thinks that since Li Changheng is not short of money, and he is abroad, there is no need to take risks for the remaining tens or hundreds of thousands.

Because it has been selected by Aiwen from the warehouse first, and then it has been seen by a Chinese antique appraiser from the United States.

In addition to the old man Guan's personal inspection, the last 421 antiques were properly packed and boxed and sent to the plane.

When I arrived in New York and waited for a connecting flight, I used Li Changheng's own Boeing 707 to send it back to Hong Kong Island.

When old man Guan saw Li Changheng in the separate small hall of the VIP waiting room, the first thing he said was, "Boss, I made at least 1 million dollars for you this trip."

Li Changheng was taken aback when he heard it, and then he saw the old man Guan's eyes dodge, and he immediately reacted.

This is because he thinks that he is a capitalist. It is more important to mention how much money he has made for the boss than to mention his feelings and the ability to look at antiques.

Helplessly smiled and shook his head, but Li Changheng didn't point out or explain.

For him, it is easier and longer to withdraw money.

And to be honest, since Old Man Guan thinks it's worth more than one million dollars, the real price must be more than two million.

As for the future, it may be worth 10 million in 30 years, and it will definitely be worth 50 million in 40 years.

And 50 years later, without 200 million US dollars, don't even mention buying it.

Nodding to Dao Feng behind him, a handbag appeared in front of Old Man Guan.

Out of curiosity, Old Man Guan frowned and opened the handbag directly in front of Li Changheng, and then the sound of breathing stopped for a few seconds.

Looking at Li Changheng in shock and confusion, he said, "Yes, isn't it too much?"

"It's only 50,000 U.S. dollars," Li Changheng said with a smile, "I value your eyesight, and if there are no accidents in the future, basically you can go abroad once or twice a year.

So if I were you, I would first think about whether to bring the 50,000 US dollars back to the mainland or store them in Hong Kong Island first. "

Now not only the old man Guan was almost overwhelmed, even Yuan Hua began to envy him.

I have been protecting Ruan Mei and her boss for 2 years, and my annual salary has only increased from the original 50,000 a year to the current 70,000 US dollars a year.

But the old guy next to him who is 16 years older than himself actually earned 50,000 US dollars in just 3 days, and if it was done twice a year, wouldn't it be 100,000 US dollars?

For NIM, Yuan Hua immediately made up his mind to let his son get in touch with old man Guan's apprentice Han Chunming after returning to Hong Kong Island.

Even if there is a chance, even if you can't ask old man Guan as your teacher, you still have to find connections to contact the antique masters in the mainland.

If you learn the real skills, you will not be able to work for your boss in the future.

Just by looking at the boss's attitude towards Tianchao Antiques, one can know that Tianchao Antiques will definitely keep rising in the future.

My son and grandson have this craft, and they will not be without food in the future.

Then Yuan Hua thought again, should he spend 10,000 US dollars every year to buy some good things in the mainland?

After the old man Guan calmed down, he put his handbag under his armpit with a smile, thinking that his son and daughter-in-law would not need to rely on his apprentice for the money to go abroad.

When he was in a good mood, he began to mutter and explain the more than 400 antiques, the best ones first, to Li Changheng one by one.

Then Li Changheng smiled when he heard old man Guan mention Wenwan walnuts, but he didn't really give old man Guan a pair.

Instead, after waiting for more than 400 pieces of text to play on his private jet, he boarded the plane and picked out a pair of lion heads that looked the most pleasing to the eye, and wanted to play with them in his hands.

But looking at the shiny walnuts, I felt a little disgusted that they were made by others.

Putting the walnuts back, he smiled and said to the old man Guan, "Master Guan, I'll offer you $500. Can you help me collect a pair of new walnuts that are no worse than these walnuts?"

"I can't guarantee that." Old man Guan shook his head quickly, "It is said that 500 dollars let alone a pair, even 10 pairs of old gadgets can be found for you.

But new walnuts are hard to say, and there are not many people playing with walnuts now. When you want to grow good walnuts and you are unlucky, it is not easy to grow them with just a few trees.

It took too much manpower and material resources, and it would be troublesome if people found out. "

Li Changheng chuckled, "Then I'll use 100 strips of Jinhua ham, or even a ton of German sausages as reward, and I can always find a pair of walnuts that look good."
