Treasure Hunt America

Ask for collection, ask for recommendation!

************

At this time, more and more people came over, and Jin Muchen didn't want to stay with that guy, so he simply withdrew from the crowd and stood behind the crowd.

The crowd crowded in front of the two Bogu shelves, Jin Muchen smiled helplessly, it seemed that it was too easy to think before, you must know that this room is now crowded with connoisseurs who came to Manhattan and recognized these things. , people will surely recognize it.

Moreover, these guys have far better shipping channels and more abundant funds.

If these things have their fancy, then they certainly don't have much chance.

And the facts also proved Jin Muchen's guess. The porcelains he liked were already stared at by others. He just gave up his seat for a while, and squeezed several guys over, holding those dishes and looking at them. .

Even the export porcelain on the other side, which he didn't like too much, was not spared. While watching, those guys were arguing endlessly.

Regarding the dating of those porcelains, others are more professional than him, and their main argument is the price positioning of these porcelains. Jin Muchen eavesdropped on the side for a while, and then walked away sadly.

The price that jumped out of those guys' mouths is obviously not something he can afford now.

Before, he sold a set of pastel bowls, a set of signed Yuan Datou, and a set of French antique tea sets, each of which made a lot of money, but he sent almost all of the money back to his home, and now he has only The salary I earned from my part-time job, as well as some fractions, added up to just over $10,000.

With this amount of money, I might be able to bid for a bowl or something, but such a bowl cannot be sold as smoothly as I met with Boss Wang the previous two times. God knows it will be held in my hands for a month. , or two months?

If that's the case, he's going to have problems with his cash flow.

What's more, if he bought a bowl at a high price, it was not his original intention to come here, you must know that he came here to pick up the leak.

"Okay, gentlemen, you are almost done watching, so let's start. First, please put the things in your hands back in their original positions, and let's auction according to the labels!"

I don't know when, that Josh. Bentley returned to the room, it seemed that this guy's job might have something to do with the auctioneer, because he was familiar with the auction process.

The small antiques in the room have been marked by him for a long time. When everyone is looking at the item, if they are interested in that item, they will mark the item's mark on their small notebook, and then write it next to it. own psychological price, waiting for bidding.

"First of all, we're going to put up lot 1, this painting on the fireplace behind me, Downing. Chandler's "Ship in the Storm", as everyone knows, Downing. Chandler, although not as big as his contemporaries Wei, Ingres, and Delacroix are so famous, but he studied under Dreyfuske Leiden, and is well-known for his realistic sketching...... This work, $30,000 Shooting..."

Josh introduced the oil painting behind him, and then quoted the reserve price and bidding principle.

Jin Muchen stood behind a group of antique dealers who were pulling their necks with a helpless smile, and it seemed that he was going to return empty-handed this time.

"Eight thousand dollars, is there anything higher?"

"$8,110, well, is there anyone who bids higher? $8,110, the first time, the second time, the third time, so this Qing Dynasty blue and white porcelain plate belongs to that Mr. Goodley. !"

The auction in the study was in full swing. In front of the antique dealers, it was obvious that this room was full of good things, and there was no reason to go home empty-handed.

The oil painting in front was sold for a high price of 50,000 US dollars, and the old shotguns were also bought for several thousand US dollars. The most surprising thing was the twelve-forked deer head, which was also sold. Fifteen thousand dollars.

Soon, some Western-style miscellaneous antiques were swept away by antique dealers, and when the finale of Chinese porcelain was reached, the auction atmosphere in the entire study quickly entered a white-hot stage.

Although the auction prices of these Chinese porcelain items are not necessarily higher than those of the previous ones, the key is that this stuff is selling well!

Although the price of the previous Western auctions may be relatively expensive, it is not particularly easy to sell them.

Just like that little famous Tangning. Although Chandler's oil paintings are antique oil paintings, because he is not well-known, the audience is not necessarily large.

Maybe you buy it back and put it in the store, and you have to wait a year or two until you meet a collector who really likes his style before paying for it.

In a few years, taking into account factors such as inflation, currency devaluation, etc., such antiques cannot be regarded as best-sellers.

And it also weighs down a lot of money, and for antique dealers, the liquidity of cash is just as important.

And these Chinese porcelains are different. Even though the price of a single product is not expensive, it has a very good circulation in the market. Today, if you spend 8,100 yuan to win it, it may not take two months. If you sell it at a price of 10,000 yuan, you will make a lot of money this time around.

What's more, these antique dealers all have their own fixed shipping channels? So this shot time should be much faster than this.

Therefore, the last Chinese porcelains have undoubtedly become the most interesting antiques in this small auction.

Seeing the increasingly fierce competition ahead, Jin Muchen could only stand behind the crowd with a wry smile. He originally wanted to pick it up, but he never expected to encounter such a scene.

"What? You're not going to shoot two?"

Candace stood aside and looked at Jin Muchen and asked, she didn't know much about antiques, she only knew that Jin Muchen was studying antiques identification, and the antiques in front were all real, but why Jin Muchen kept delaying Shot, which made her not understand.

Jin Muchen glanced at Candace, and could only helplessly shake his head and shrug his shoulders: "I think so! But if you listen to their quotation, you can buy 8,000 yuan for a bowl. Although I want to buy it, but I Not enough money!"

"What? How far away are you? Where do I still have some, or I'll lend you a little first?"

Candace looked at Jin Muchen and asked, in the United States, men and women are very clear about money, especially in such a relationship between male and female friends who have only known each other for a long time. Borrowing money from others.

It was the first time that Jin Muchen met someone like Candace who took the initiative to lend money to others, which moved him a little.

"No, Candace, I can't spend your money!"

"Why? Since you like it, then buy it? And I didn't give it to you, but lent it to you. The big deal is that after you sell the china, you can return it to me!"

Candace looked at Jin Muchen and said seriously, it seems that she cares about Jin Muchen sincerely and is not defensive at all, which makes Jin Muchen even more moved, but he still rejected Candace's proposal.

"Thank you for your kindness, but I still can't use your money..."

"Stupid, so you're just an idiot who can't even eat soft rice?"

A sharp and slight voice suddenly sounded next to him. He turned his head and saw that he didn't know when the nasty Xiangjiang guy from before came to the two of them again, and also heard the conversation between the two of them just now.

Seeing Jin Muchen's eyes turn, this guy raised his head, his eyes were almost on top of his head, and there was a disdainful hum from his nose!

"Come on, Yankee, the poor guy just goes to Chinatown to wash the dishes if he has no money. Why are you here to join in the fun?"

Jin Muchen clenched his fists, his pupils shrank suddenly, and just before he was about to rush over to punch the guy a few times, Candace grabbed his arm.

"Honey, don't bother with such garbage!"

The guy just spoke Cantonese. Although Candace didn't understand what he said, just by looking at Jin Muchen's angry look, he knew that the guy must have said nothing good.

If it was elsewhere, Jin Muchen would have beaten him if he hit him, but not here~www.wuxiahere.com~ With so many people here, once Jin Muchen made a move, it would be irrelevant. If they call the police, Jin Muchen will It's definitely a big loss.

Jin Muchen's originally hot head was gradually calmed down by Candace's drag. It is true that he is rough with this guy now, but the gain is not worth the loss. If he is not careful, he will have to go to prison.

Seeing that Jin Muchen didn't fight back, this Xiangjiang native became even more arrogant, but soon he would not have time to continue entanglement with Jin Muchen, after all, he was not here to get angry, but to collect antiques of.

"Okay, let's start the auction of Collection No. 32. This collection is a beautiful pastel vase. The pattern of the vase is..."

The auction on the stage has entered the final stage, and at this time the auction is just those export porcelain.

Chinese antique dealers are definitely not very interested in such porcelain, but these foreign antique dealers, but their eyes are shining. These porcelains are exquisitely made, and both the style and the paintings on the porcelain are particularly appealing to them. Therefore, as long as these porcelains are won, there is no need to worry about no sales.

And the Xiangjiang native who was still fighting with Jin Muchen just now was also eager to try the export porcelain. Jin Muchen saw his expression and suddenly became interested.

Soon several vases were auctioned, and the Xiangjiang person also participated in several biddings, but they were all unsuccessful, but when the 38th collection was brought up, the guy's eyes lit up.

Jin Muchen, who had been secretly paying attention to him, turned to look at the lot on the stand at this time. It happened to be a pastel porcelain plate.
