Chapter 8 Competitors

From the door to the inside of the container, there are all porcelain.

Porcelain in boxes.

At a glance, most of the porcelain placed at the door were damaged.Either a corner is missing, or there is a crack.

But there are more than a dozen boxes of porcelain inside that are intact.

Although Zhu Yu is from China, his knowledge of porcelain is limited to ordinary people.

These porcelains are not like modern ones, but a bit like ancient porcelains.

But the quantity is really big.

If it is ancient porcelain, even if it is defective, such a large amount is not a small fortune.

Why did the owner of this container abandon these porcelains?
This is not normal!

But no matter what, Zhu Yu wanted to give it a try and shoot it!
When the container was opened, the few people crowded at the door looked at the porcelain, and immediately turned their attention to Zhu Yu, and the other Asian woman who had followed and took pictures of the first container.

Zhu Yu understood.

After all, porcelain is equivalent to China.

These people have already regarded themselves and the other woman as strong competitors.

In the past few years, because Chinese people bought back a large number of overseas antiques, many overseas people also know that ancient Chinese things are also very valuable.

Ming and Qing porcelains that could have been bought for tens of dollars or tens of dollars at the flea market can’t be bought for thousands of dollars or even tens of thousands of dollars now!
Some people even buy things when they see someone with a Huaxia face, and the price immediately increases ten times or dozens of times.

It feels like Huaxia people are being taken advantage of.

Therefore, when the auctioneer set a reserve price of 350 US dollars and Zhu Yu quoted [-] US dollars, the seven or eight people participating in the auction immediately raised the price to [-] US dollars with one sentence!
Zhu Yu was greatly surprised.

The Asian woman took a closer look at the porcelain and then offered the price:
"Fifteen hundred dollars!"

Zhu Yu thought for a while, and then offered a price:
"Two thousand dollars!"

He offered an extra $[-] just to scare off some competitors.

Sure enough, this method worked.

Some unknown auctioneers immediately stopped bidding.

"Two thousand one hundred dollars." But there were two other auctioneers who did not intend to give up.

"Two thousand three hundred!"

"Three thousand!" It was the Asian woman who raised the price this time.

Zhu Yu was a little surprised, this Asian woman seemed determined to get these porcelains.

Zhu Yu looked at the porcelain again, and felt that it was covered with something, not as clear as ordinary porcelain.

"Three thousand five hundred dollars!" A female voice suddenly rang out.

Zhu Yu turned her head, Joanna!

She walked up to Zhu Yu and whispered:
"Do you like it? If you like it, I'll take a picture of it for you."

Zhu Yu was stunned!

what's going on?
Take a picture of yourself?

Are you going to have a soft meal?
That won't work!

He patted Joanna on the shoulder lightly and said:
"No, I have money here. And...these things are a bit suspicious."

The Asian woman offered again:
"Four thousand dollars!"

After hearing Zhu Yu's words, Joanna didn't raise the price.

However, Zhu Yu and that woman had already stirred up the heat, and he refused to let Joanna add, but he still wanted to take a picture, and someone else raised the price.

"Forty-five hundred dollars!"

It turned out to be an increase of fifty dollars, but when Zhu Yu and the Asian woman made a move, the price was increased by five hundred dollars.

Zhu Yu believed that the woman should have noticed that these porcelains were ancient porcelains.

It's just that this is not ordinary ancient porcelain, it is highly likely to be Haidao porcelain.

Moreover, many porcelains are damaged to a certain extent.

Zhu Yu scanned the past and found that there should be about sixty pieces of porcelain, of which about forty pieces are in good condition.

The point is that these porcelains were not fired in official kilns.The sky eye can see the inscriptions underneath, there is no official making.

Therefore, all in all, even if it is Ming and Qing porcelain, there is a high probability that it is not particularly valuable.

So, when the value reached seven thousand dollars, only Zhu Yu and that woman were making an offer.

The woman came over and whispered to Zhu Yu:
"Why do you need to kill each other?"

She speaks Mandarin with a Central Plains dialect flavor.

Zhu Yu thought about it, then gave up.

Although I don't know the price of Hai Lao Porcelain, it is definitely not too valuable.

And they are all compatriots, so let's form a good relationship!

Asian woman took pictures of porcelain.

"Thank you, my name is Helen, and here is my business card." The Asian woman handed her business card to Zhu Yu, then glanced at Joanna, and said:
"You have a beautiful girlfriend."

Turn around and leave.

Zhu Yu and Joanna packed the containers together.

Joanna asked her own question:
"Why didn't you continue taking pictures of the container just now? If you don't have enough money, I still have some here."

Zhu Yu shook his head and said:
"If you continue to shoot, you won't make much money."

He told Joanna about the guess of sea fishing porcelain, and then said:

"Some of these porcelains are damaged. The value of the intact ones is higher, but it is also limited. I estimate the total value is about [-] US dollars. It is meaningless to bid any further."

Joanna nodded half-understanding, and then focused on the container she had photographed.

Joanna was very satisfied with Zhu Yu's attitude of patiently explaining to herself.

Men and women in love, who doesn't want the other person's attention to be on themselves?

Uncovering the cloth, Joanna screamed when she saw the motorcycle:
"Harley!"

Zhu Yu didn't know much about motorcycles.

Although I have heard of Harley, I don't know much about its value.

On the contrary, Joanna has a wealth of knowledge in this area, and gave Zhu Yu a popular science:

"This is a Harley motorcycle produced in the 80s of the last century. Now it is a collectible, let me see..."

Joanna carefully looked at the model and parts of the motorcycle, and even tried to start it.

"Well, it's in pretty good condition. It's estimated to sell for $[-]! I made it!"

Joanna couldn't help but turned around and hugged Zhu Yu and kissed:
"Honey, betting on containers is really exciting! My luck is really good!"

Look at everything else, it's all parts and tools, worth a few hundred dollars.

"I have a friend's father who collects this. I can call her." Zhu Yu didn't expect that Joanna even had a channel to sell it.

After the phone call, Joanna took a few photos and went over.

"Next, let's look at that container of yours, I hope there will be good harvest!"

Zhu Yu said confidently:

"There will be, your luck will bring me good luck!"

After entering the container, Joanna was immediately disappointed when she saw the old goods and even garbage all over the floor.

When she saw the safe again, her eyes lit up, and she was disappointed again when she saw the safe open.

"It seems that my luck has not played a role."

Zhu Yu smiled and said:
"Who said that? Your luck is very good, and it brought me good luck, really!"

"Really?" Joanna couldn't believe it.It's full of worthless second-hand goods, which are equivalent to garbage.

Where did the good stuff come from?
