Antique Dealer

Chapter 238 What a coincidence
The next day was Monday, Fang Hao drove to his villa alone, waiting for the staff in charge of cleaning and repairing to come.

I made an appointment with the staff at nine o'clock, but not long after Fang Hao arrived, the other party also arrived. Fang Hao first told the cleaning person about his request.

Afterwards, he took the staff responsible for the repairs around and proposed the areas to be repaired, and the other party also made some additions.

After discussing with no objection, and confirming the cost of materials and construction period, Fang Hao clearly signed an agreement with both parties to avoid disputes in the future.

After talking about things, Fang Hao called Jiang Mingrui and asked where Peng Shanshan's grandfather's house was. Since he had a car, he didn't need to trouble Jiang Mingrui to make another trip.

Jiang Mingrui was surprised when he learned that Fang Hao had a car: "When did you buy the car?"

Fang Hao replied: "I forgot to tell you yesterday, my elders bought me a villa, and the original owner left a car."

After hearing this, Jiang Mingrui became even more curious about Fang Hao's supernatural elder, thinking that he must get to know him if he had the chance, and then asked, "Where is the villa located?"

"Yilong Villa."

"Ah! Is it a single building?"

"Yes."

Jiang Mingrui guessed that the villa Fang Hao's elders bought him should not be cheap, but he didn't expect that it would be a single-family villa in this community. Powerful enough.

Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration and asked, "Is the previous head of the household called Lu Lijian?"

Now it's Fang Hao's turn to be curious: "Yes, you know him?"

Jiang Mingrui said: "There are only a few single-family villas in Yilong Villa. I know the owner of the household, but I haven't seen him. I heard that this time someone killed a pig and lost all the money?"

"I heard that it is so, but I don't know the details."

Fang Hao continued: "It seems that you are very familiar with Yilong Villa, don't tell me, you have a house here as well."

Jiang Mingrui said with a smile: "If only I had arrived, I would have known that Lu Lijian would sell the villa, so I would have squatted down, and maybe I could cut your ass off."

"You bastard!"

Fang Hao shook his head and smiled: "Okay, let's get down to business, where does Peng Shanshan's grandfather live?"

"Where are you now?"

"It's right here at the villa."

"That's pretty close. If you do this, go out and tell me the direction, and I'll show you the way."

Fang Hao didn't expect such a coincidence that Peng Shanshan's grandfather happened to be in the same community, not far from his villa, and it was only a short walk away.

"Ding dong!"

Fang Hao rang the doorbell, and after a while, a voice came out from the intercom: "Who is it?"

"Hi, I'm Fang Hao. I contacted Mr. Tang yesterday."

"Please wait."

After a while, the voice rang again: "Are you alone?"

Fang Hao explained the reason, and the other party asked him to wait for a while. After a while, Fang Hao saw a woman in her 30s coming to open the door. She was Tang Nanzhong's nanny.

"Mr. Fang, please come in. The old man has some inconvenience in his legs and feet. He is waiting for you in the living room."

"Okay, sorry to bother you."

"You're welcome."

Fang Hao followed the woman into the villa. The layout of the yard was a bit different from his side, with more exotic flowers and plants planted, but now it was winter, not the viewing season, and it looked a bit more desolate than his side.

Entering the villa, Fang Hao looked around, and found that the decoration style here is pure Chinese style, with a darker style, giving people a sense of time and weather.

Seeing Fang Hao coming in, Tang Nanzhong, who was sitting on the sofa, slowly stood up. The old man had gray hair and was full of energy. Looking back, there was an old man's shadow in Peng Shanshan's eyes.

Fang Hao stepped forward quickly: "Old Tang, your legs and feet are not convenient, you should sit down."

"It's okay, I don't feel comfortable sitting all the time, stand up and loosen my muscles and bones."

Tang Nanzhong looked at Fang Hao with a smile: "The young man is really a good-looking talent!"

"You're welcome."

After a few words of politeness, Tang Nanzhong asked Fang Hao to sit down, and asked the nanny to make tea for Fang Hao.

Tang Nanzhong was not in a hurry, and chatted with Fang Hao: "I just heard that the villa you bought is not far from here?"

Fang Hao nodded: "Yes, my elders bought it for me. The original head of the household was named Lu Lijian. I didn't expect such a coincidence that we became neighbors."

Tang Nanzhong smiled and nodded: "Neighbors are good, close relatives are worse than distant relatives. You can often come to my side for a sit down."

Fang Hao smiled and said, "As long as you don't dislike it, that's fine."

Tang Nanzhong picked up his teacup and took a sip: "By the way, there are no problems with the formalities of your villa, right?"

"No." The system export must be a high-quality product. Fang Hao is not worried about this problem, and he has carefully read all kinds of documents and invoices, and there is no problem. However, there must be a reason for Tang Nanzhong to ask this, so he asked Said: "Is there any problem?"

Tang Nanzhong explained: "Lv Lijian is indeed very powerful, but he has committed some common problems of men and cannot control his lower body. I heard that this time he suffered a big loss, and this is also the reason. His ex-wife couldn't bear it. Divorced him three years ago.

His ex-wife is also a powerful person. His company can grow bigger without the efforts of his ex-wife, and the company also has his ex-wife's shares.When the two of them divorced, because of the issue of the division of shares and property, there was a lot of trouble, and the company almost went bankrupt.Later, under the persuasion of the family members of both parties, the flag died down.

The reason why I remind you is that I am worried that the villa is still involved with his ex-wife. If there are flaws in the procedures, it may cause trouble for you. "

Fang Hao thanked Tang Nanzhong for his reminder, but as long as the procedures are complete, he is not worried about any problems, and the system also considerately replaced the door locks with new ones.

The two chatted for a while, and finally got down to business. Tang Nanzhong also saw Yuxi's true face as he wished, and his mood fluctuated a little. He took it in his hand and observed it carefully.

After Fang Hao finished drinking a cup of tea, Tang Nanzhong reluctantly put the jade seal back into the box. He closed his eyes for a while and felt that the astringency was no longer there. Then he opened his eyes and smiled apologetically: "I'm getting old, and my eyes are a bit dull. Can't keep up."

Fang Hao smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry, what do you think?"

"Very good, I think it's 3000 million, and you're at a disadvantage."

Tang Nanzhong learned from his granddaughter that Fang Hao's price was 3000 million. Compared with the photos posted in Moments, he felt that the price was a bit lower. Looking at it today, the real thing is even more beautiful. Even if it is 500 million more, he is willing.He has been upright in everything he does all his life, so he speaks bluntly.

Fang Hao said with a smile: "I think this price is still appropriate. Of course, I can also wait for the price, but I think that our domestic antique market should be more rational. It doesn't mean that the price cannot be increased, and the price cannot be increased. If investment appreciates, the market will definitely not be healthy, but the price increase must also be controlled within a reasonable range.”

Now that he has decided to set up a personality for himself to maintain a rational market, he should show it at ordinary times. After a long time, it will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Tang Nanzhong was a little surprised by Fang Hao's idea: "Your idea is very good. The antique market should indeed be more rational, but this market is too big, and as long as it is related to interests, there is no shortage of business dogs. It is obvious that there is no way to compete with it alone. counterbalanced."

Fang Hao smiled and said: "I understand what you said, but I have never thought that I can rectify the industry by myself. What I have to do is to stick to my own ideas and go step by step. How far away, let's take a look."

Again, Fang Hao's idea is only to let other people recognize his valuation, unless he is crazy, he will not think that he can influence the entire market by himself.

In the future, he plans to set up a personal website, which will display every antique he handles that has not been sold or has been sold, records the reasons for their pricing, and will update the price every year.

In the future, as his fame spreads far and wide, and the website is widely known, other people will definitely refer to the value of similar artifacts on the website when evaluating. At that time, his goal will be achieved.

Of course, this is Fang Hao's personal idea, and there may be some omissions, and we will slowly improve it in the future.

"Young people, just have your own ideas."

Tang Nanzhong nodded with a smile, and then Fang Hao said: "Let's go, let's go to my study, things are ready."

As he spoke, Tang Nanzhong picked up the crutch next to him and slowly got up. The nanny immediately came to help him, but he waved him away, and then led Fang Hao towards the study.

When we arrived in the study, Tang Nanzhong pointed to an ink-colored brocade box on the left hand side of his desk: "I saw that there is no problem with the other things, but the ink bed in this box is something I can't figure out. Take a look first. If there is any problem , I'll change to another."

The ink bed is one of the stationery utensils. The records about the ink bed in the literature first appeared in the Qing Dynasty. It is also called the ink stand and the ink stand. It is easy to stain other objects if placed randomly, so an ink bed is made to hold ink.

"Ok."

Fang Hao walked to the desk and opened the brocade box.

A large number of ink beds were fired during the Qianlong period. On the one hand, it shows the exquisite craftsmanship, and on the other hand, it also reflects Qianlong's ruling thought of emphasizing "cultural governance".

The ink bed in the brocade box fits this feature. It is in the style of a scroll and has a unique shape.Two shafts rolled up.White glaze is applied on the inside, pastel decoration on the outside, landscapes, pavilions and figures are painted.The interior of the ring foot is turquoise green glaze, and the outer bottom is signed with "Qianlong year system" in red seal script.

Fang Hao observed carefully, especially the part of the foot ring, for a minute or two: "Mr. Tang, I think your judgment is correct. This ink bed is indeed a bit monster."

"Oh, can you tell me what's wrong?"

"Qianlong pastel imperial kiln porcelain is famous all over the world for its bright and lively colors and exquisite craftsmanship. It has a unique feature, that is, turquoise green glaze is applied on the mouth and bottom of the utensils. The turquoise green glaze is very light and smooth. The surface is like porridge skin, and because it is a kind of low-temperature colored glaze, the glaze surface often has tiny patterns.

And the turquoise green glaze on this ink bed, although it is very similar to the imitation, compared with the genuine product, it still lacks a little flavor, and the patterns on the glaze surface are very unnatural. "

Fang Hao explained in detail what was wrong with the ink bed. Seeing that Tang Nanzhong was in a daze, he didn't know what he thought of.
