Recycled Porcelain [Ancient Wears Today]
Chapter 52
Although Jiang Xin and the enthusiastic bar Xu Jiuzhao took them home, just as Xu Jiuzhao thought before, Jiang Xin was really busy the day before the show. He sent Xu Jiuzhao back to Xiaoyanglou and returned directly to the venue.
Xu Jiuzhao returned to the guest room where he lived last time under the call of the nanny, still the same.Xu Jiuzhao seldom came, so he didn't realize that nothing in this room had been touched since he left.
Xu Jiuzhao's room is on the second floor of Xiaoyang Building. The location and orientation are very good. There is a large balcony with flowers planted in full bloom.
Xu Jiuzhao looked at the flowers that were still blooming in autumn in amazement. Doesn't this seem to be the same species as the one I saw last time?He squatted down and leaned over to smell it.
The owners were not there, and the whole small western-style building was quiet, except for the guest Xu Jiuzhao, only the nanny and the gardener were there.
Xu Jiuzhao was not tired, so he walked around the public space of the house. A corner of the first floor is the old man's exclusive space, and there are many antiques on display in the Duobao Pavilion.
Xu Jiuzhao leaned forward with great interest, using the newly acquired knowledge to distinguish these porcelains.
"Jiuzhao?" Jiang Weiguo's voice came from the entrance, and Xu Jiuzhao hurried past.
"Mr. Jiang, you are back." Xu Jiuzhao greeted.
"Just arrived, are you tired?" Jiang Weiguo's usual solemn face showed a rare kindness, and he seemed to be in a good mood.
"I came by plane, so I'm not tired." Xu Jiuzhao smiled, "By the way, Mr. Jiang, I have a few questions, can I ask you?"
Jiang Weiguo is a figure of Taishan Beidou level in the world of antiques. Just now there are some porcelains on display in Duobao Pavilion that he has doubts about. Xu Jiuzhao asked him for advice.
Jiang Weiguo was in a good mood, and naturally he was willing to give Xu Jiuzhao advice, so he walked to Duobao Pavilion with him, and the two talked about ceramic appraisal all afternoon.
Jiang Weiguo told Xu Jiuzhao a lot of his experience in ceramic appraisal. Although he is not a professional, he also knows a lot of general knowledge. He even gave Xu Jiuzhao some notes, which flattered Xu Jiuzhao.
"You will be the ancient porcelain consultant of our Boguxuan from now on. Of course, the more solid your professional knowledge, the better." Jiang Weiguo said, patting his hand holding the notebook.
The next day was a small auction held by Boguxuan specially for the three-legged smoker.
Of course, this auction is not just about the Youlongliantai three-legged incense burner. Jiang Xin knows how to behave as well as do things. He teamed up with several antique shops with deep heritage to jointly hold this auction.Other antique shops also put out quite good auction items, and the Longyou Liantai Tripod Smoker was taken as the finale of course.
The official auction will be held in the afternoon, and in the morning, those who hold the invitation letter can enter the venue to have a close look at the works of art on the auction list.
Jiang Xin, a fellow Taoist who never dies in poverty, left the heavy reception work to Tang Xiaoyi, while he accompanied Xu Jiuzhao to introduce him to the precious antiques at the scene.
Jiang Xin has done her homework in advance, and she knows every auction item like the back of her hand, and she tells all kinds of allusions like countless treasures.
Xu Jiuzhao listened very carefully, Jiang Xin couldn't help being distracted while talking, Xu Jiu looked after the auction items, Jiang Xin just stared at the person.
"Mr. Jiang." A soft voice sounded, Jiang Xin frowned indistinctly, and then turned around with a calm smile.
"It turned out to be Boss Zheng." Jiang Xin's business expression did not show any perfunctory, but a bit of sincerity and enthusiasm, "Welcome to this auction."
"I should thank Boguxuan for this opportunity." Boss Zheng's name is Zheng Kailong, in his early thirties, wearing a well-tailored gray suit, shiny black leather shoes, and specially styled hair.The whole person looks very luxurious and fashionable.
Zheng Kailong and Jiang Xin shook hands, and the two complimented each other and said some scene words.
Jiang Xin was quite impatient. Although the customers in front of him were local tyrants and overlords, and they were most likely to be the last buyers of the three-legged smoker, but this is a good time for him to accompany Xu Jiuzhao. Can you not disturb me?
Although Jiang Xin has always regarded himself as a businessman, in his heart he is the kind of willful man who can leave everything behind for the sake of important people.
It's not that he is irresponsible, but that his responsible goals are different from others.
When Jiang Xin was talking to others, Xu Jiuzhao stood aside sensibly and did not disturb him. He first looked at the auction items in front of him.After seeing enough, I looked at the one on the next table, but without Jiang Xin's explanation, I couldn't see anything special, and I felt that the attraction was not so great.
Xu Jiuzhao's eyes moved back from the auction item again, and had to look at Zheng Kailong when he had no choice but to look.
Zheng Kailong is a typical boy and girl, his facial features are very beautiful, Xu Jiuzhao couldn't help being surprised at first glance.However, he is tall and has thick shoulders, so it doesn't make people think he is feminine.
Xu Jiu looked after him, and Zheng Kailong naturally felt his gaze.
He smiled and turned to look at Xu Jiuzhao: "This is?"
Xu Jiuzhao didn't panic when he was discovered, he calmly looked at Zheng Kailong and nodded.
Jiang Xin introduced, "This is my friend." She didn't mean to mention her name at all.
Don't think I didn't see you staring at people's faces just now.Jiang Xin couldn't help being jealous again.
Xu Jiuzhao doesn't need to know that he likes him, Xu Jiuzhao can also look at other people, but Jiang Xin can't help being jealous all the time.
Zheng Kailong paused for a moment, and his ruddy lips formed a beautiful arc: "I always think that Mr. Jiang's friend is very kind-hearted. Have we met somewhere?"
Such an old-fashioned strike-up?Jiang Xin immediately became vigilant.
Xu Jiuzhao looked at him suspiciously: "You are?"
Zheng Kailong thought for a while, and said suddenly: "Oh, you are Xu Jiuzhao, the author of "Spring River Plumbing", right? You have seen your photos."
When the results of the joint exhibition came out, the winners had a group photo, which was not only published in newspapers but also in "Art Market".
Zheng Kailong suddenly became enthusiastic, not as reserved and alienated as before: "I like your "Spring River Plumbing" very much, but unfortunately it was already in the pocket when I saw it, but I negotiated with him later, It was transferred and it is now in my office."
Jiang Xinpi smiled and said: "It turns out that Boss Zheng is so supportive of contemporary art. Why did I hear that Boss Zheng likes ancient porcelain?" So you're trying to hook up, right? !
Zheng Kailong was not in a hurry, and said in a soft voice: "Mr. Jiang misunderstood, not only ancient porcelain, I also have collections of contemporary art porcelain. I like porcelain regardless of ancient or modern, as long as I think it meets my aesthetics, let me I think it has artistic value. However, there are few modern works that catch my eye. Mr. Xu’s "Spring River Plumbing" has an aura that modern ceramics do not have. It is rare that Mr. Xu is still so young. I believe that he will create more in the future Better work."
This is not the first time for Xu Jiuzhao to face fans. Fans in ancient times became crazy and exaggerated. Zheng Kailong only said some words of praise. Xu Jiuzhao smiled calmly: "Thank you for your support."
Zheng Kailong blinked, Xu Jiuzhao was impressed that Xu Jiuzhao could be so calm and composed at this age.
Jiang Xin said: "There is not much time until the venue closes in the morning. Boss Zheng might as well see if there is anything he likes."
Zheng Kailong was not annoyed when he was ordered to evict, he smiled and extended his hand to Xu Jiuzhao: "I will continue to pay attention to your works in the future, come on."
Xu Jiuzhao looked at his hand, he knew it was a modern etiquette, held Zheng Kailong's hand and said, "Thank you."
When Zheng Kailong walked away, Xu Jiuzhao was still staring at his back, Jiang Xin couldn't help but said: "People have already gone far away, don't just stare at the parents because they look good, even if you are a man, you can't look at him like that. "
Xu Jiuzhao looked at him in surprise: "It's not because of this." Seeing that Jiang Xin didn't quite believe it, Xu Jiuzhao couldn't laugh or cry: "I know he is a man, and it doesn't matter if he is good-looking. It's just that when I shook hands just now, his hand felt a little bit cold."
Jiang Xin said indifferently: "The air conditioner is too high, and my hands are not warm." Then he directly held the palm that Xu Jiuzhao shook hands with just now, and wiped his fingers on his palm.
Xu Jiuzhao was distracted, took his hand and squeezed it: "Your hand is much warmer than his."
Satisfied, Jiang Xin led Xu Jiuzhao to the next auction item, continued to explain to him, and soon made Xu Jiuzhao forget the episode just now.
The auction officially started in the afternoon, Jiang Weiguo also arrived at the scene, Jiang Xin and Xu Jiuzhao sat on the side.
The auctioneer was specially invited, and he was very good at inciting emotions, and the atmosphere of the venue was once high.
The auction items this time are all high-quality goods. Although they are not as miraculous as the three-legged smoker, they are still rare good things.
All the local tyrants from all over the country were present, and there were even representatives of overseas buyers.
The previous auction items were auctioned off in an orderly manner. Although they were extremely restrained in the finale, they were also sold at a high price that exceeded the market price because of this rare event. The owners of all the antique shops were very happy.
When the three-legged smoker was finally put up, the local tyrants at the scene suddenly became excited.
There are not only collectors here, but also local tyrants who are not short of money, and they come here for this rare national treasure, purely to show off their wealth.
Jiang Xin didn't care whether the ultimate buyer of this smoker was collecting it or showing off his wealth.
The starting price is very generous, which is 2500 million.
Just like that day, the local tyrants raised their cards for 500 million and 500 million and up.Trying to scare some people away with this momentum that is inevitable.The first batch of competitors were eliminated in this way, but those who raised their cards did not dare to take it lightly, because the real opponent had not yet spoken out.
When the auction price of the three-legged smoker doubled and directly surpassed 6000 million, the price increase finally slowed down.And at this time, those real mandibles exerted their strength.
"8000 million!"
The scene was silent for a moment, and then whispers sounded again.
Jiang Weiguo let out a "huh" and frowned solemnly.
"What's the matter, Grandpa?" The 24-filial grandson immediately asked caringly.
"That's an agent, I know him." Jiang Weiguo stared at the middle-aged man in his forties holding a placard. "Behind him are not only rich overseas Chinese businessmen, but also foreign capitalists."
Jiang Xin raised her eyebrows: "What's wrong?"
Jiang Weiguo turned his head and said to him: "If these are photographed, it is very likely that the three-legged smoker will flow out of the country."
Jiang Xin frowned, and said hesitantly: "No way, the state control is very strict now, and antiques of the national treasure level such as the three-legged smoker cannot pass the customs."
Jiang Weiguo sneered: "Smuggling through private channels doesn't need to go through customs at all. These wealthy businessmen are so short of patience?"
Only then did Jiang Xin feel serious, although the antique market became more and more popular, only antique dealers like them could make money.But this does not mean that they like to watch national treasure-level antiques that originally belonged to China being lost overseas.
Xu Jiuzhao returned to the guest room where he lived last time under the call of the nanny, still the same.Xu Jiuzhao seldom came, so he didn't realize that nothing in this room had been touched since he left.
Xu Jiuzhao's room is on the second floor of Xiaoyang Building. The location and orientation are very good. There is a large balcony with flowers planted in full bloom.
