Chapter 802 Jewelry is the Natural Enemy of Women
After watching those spring auctions, I have drawn up a general list, and told Mr. Ji that the time can be set in the middle and early May. Mr. Ji booked the 10th, which happens to be the weekend.

After I went out for a stroll, the planning company that Mr. Jin found had already made all the products I had planned into exquisite albums.

One lot is an album of about eight pages.

After reading those albums, I looked at the real objects and finally ordered fifteen samples.

Among the fifteen items, there are only three items of porcelain, including the one provided by Mr. Jiang, and only two items of calligraphy and painting, but there are more other small crafts.

On the day I made the final decision, Mr. Ji also ran back to the mansion on purpose. He was a little surprised to see the item I had finalized, but he did not ask.

He didn't ask, but I took the initiative to tell him.

I said, after looking at this year’s spring auctions, combined with the results of last year’s auctions, I think that the popularity of Chinese art is rising sharply, especially porcelain, calligraphy and painting. The three major auction houses specialize in porcelain, calligraphy and painting. All of them were sold this time, and several white gloves were won. The auctions of these three major houses are not small auctions like ours. They have hundreds of lots in one auction, and they are all sold. This is very rare.

Moreover, there are many collectors from the mainland this year, which means that the strength of the collectors in the mainland is also greatly improving, and there are more and more buyers who are in high demand and richer, so there will be a lot of room for appreciation of those high-quality goods , and boutiques sell one less than one, so at this time, we don't need to sell all the things in our hands, but just a few.

With just a few items, the quality of the entire auction can be improved, and because there are only a few good items, those people will not be afraid to bid fiercely to snatch them up.

As soon as I said this, Mr. Ji understood immediately, his eyebrows were trembling, and he gave me the guest list.

Then I added another sentence, saying that these things will definitely come, of course, it is estimated that there will be some impromptu ideas at that time.

I took a look at the list and there are more than 20 people on it. If you add the impromptu ones, the last time those people will grab one no matter what...

Well, I went back and added a piece of china, and two smaller pieces.

Just thinking about whether to choose another good item, Mr. Ji asked me, can jewelry be considered as an item in this auction?

I was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded.

This year Sotheby's had a special jadeite jewelry auction. I happened to see a small company at that time, so I stopped by to see it.

Well, there is a saying that jewelry is a woman's natural enemy, so I am a woman anyway...

At that time, it seemed as if a door to a new world had opened...

So, I also went to ask for these special materials of the three major auction houses. At that time, I was thinking, Mr. Ji said that there are pawn shops outside Macau hotels, so jewelry can also be included in our auctions. I just thought I think so, but firstly we don’t have the source of jewelry, and secondly, I don’t understand those diamonds and gems...

So I just gave up after thinking about it.

Unexpectedly, Mr. Ji brought it up by himself.

Mr. Ji smiled and said that after the opening of his VIP room, many ladies came. This man is crazy about gambling. Like a bank, it usually doesn't take long. Even if there is a special agreement, it will not exceed ten months at most. Now that he has been in business for so long, he still has a lot of dead jewelry on his hands.

Having said that, Mr. Ji asked someone to bring over a large jewelry box filled with various small jewelry boxes.

Well, there are all kinds of gemstone necklaces, earrings and rings, as well as famous watches...

I... After a general look, I said to Mr. Ji with some embarrassment, I don't understand this.

Mr. Ji waved his hand again, his dumb man, well, I know his name is Aba now, and Aba brought over a stack of papers.

On it, there are jewelry appraisal certificates corresponding to the labels on the jewelry.

And market prices.

This, no matter how you look at it, has been carefully prepared.

I glanced at Mr. Ji out of the corner of my eye.

Mr. Ji smiled and said that these things are easy to judge, because jewelry has a price, and you can find it in a gold shop. However, the water in this jewelry business is even deeper. It is the same price as second-hand. For example, if you want to sell the ruby ​​necklace on the counter, it will cost 81 million.
But if it is transferred to the gold bank as second-hand second-hand goods, then the maximum is 40. When he asked people to mortgage it, he sold 35. After so long, only 40 does not mean that the second-hand bank is cheaper?But he finds it troublesome to let himself open a gold shop or a pawn shop.

After saying this, Mr. Ji added another sentence, as for him, he just expects a little more than the mortgage payment, and the interest will be paid back.

I immediately understood what he meant.

I looked at the dozens of things in the jewelry box. If all of them were worth hundreds of thousands or millions, then Mr. Ji would have paid a lot for the things in this big jewelry box, but... ...It is indeed not worth asking Mr. Ji to open a store to sell...

Selling this at an auction is aimed at those people's faces. Even if it can't be sold at the counter price, it is still better than the second-hand recycling price.

Can come back some is some!
I asked Aba to take out all the jewelry, opened the small boxes, and placed them one by one on the table in the corridor, facing the sun, and looked at the market prices of the certificates one by one.

In the end I settled on an emerald pendant, a ruby ​​necklace, a sapphire necklace, and a pair of blue diamond earrings.

The market price of the four items is around one million. Mr. Ji's mortgage price is 35 to 40. I asked Mr. Jin to mark it, and the starting price was 68.

These four are really beautiful. When I chose them, I was a little selfish. I thought that if no one bought them, I would buy them myself...one of them...

At that time, Mr. Ji and I both thought that these were dead goods, and it was only natural to sell them, but we ignored a small problem.

After the things were settled, I asked Mr. Jin to quickly find someone to make these four items into a single color picture, because they are not ancient objects, and I don’t understand that this kind of thing can’t tell a story, so I directly uploaded the photos and marked them as Good quality and starting price.

After finishing all these, Mr. Ji said that both Mr. Li and Mr. Gong told him that after this auction, it is best to have another reception, one is to celebrate, and the second is to give me Introduce it.

He also said that he thought the proposal was so good that he had already booked the banquet hall above.

When he said that, there was a sly and irresistible smile on his face, and I didn't want to refuse.

After going back and turning around, I have a deeper understanding of the reason why Mr. Gong made this suggestion.

I immediately smiled and said yes.

As soon as I agreed, the monkey took out a pearl necklace from the jewelry box and said he bought it...

It was a natural pink pearl necklace with a market price of 35, which matched my cheongsams just right.

Mr. Ji directly said to give it away, but Monkey wanted to buy it. In the end, Mr. Jin made a compromise and asked Monkey to buy it with Mr. Ji's mortgage price of 8 yuan...
