Chapter 320 Face-to-face Opportunities
After Shangguan Yu started the car, Yu Yao asked, "How much is it? I'll transfer it to you."

"Shouldn't you be going to Teacher Lin's house tonight? Change the time and wait for yours!" Shangguan Yu answered irrelevantly.

"Well, I'll contact him. Tell me how much it is first."

"You're still in a hurry. One yard is worth one yard. I won't take it away. It's just that it's not good to push around at Mr. Meng's house." Shangguan Yu laughed, "Fifty thousand!"

This was the same price as what Li Dazui offered at that time, but this Yu Yao didn't hesitate at all, and then transferred the money.After finishing the work, Yu Yao also asked one more question, "Master Meng revealed the frame, isn't this still a discounted price for you?"

"Mr. Meng is 5.00% of the painting price for mounting, and 200% for unmounting. If you reinstall after unmounting, it is equivalent to giving it away. It is usually half price for me." Shangguan Yu explained, "Your stickers , I estimated it at [-] million, not much, right?"

"Not much. But Mr. Meng has obviously never seen the Moon Shadow patch."

"He has never seen a moon shadow patch, but he knows that this paper is not the same as ink, so he won't think I gave it too much."

"That's good."

Yu Yao then called Lin Fengcao, and Lin Fengcao had class on Monday tomorrow, so he made another appointment for the evening.

Early the next morning, Yang Sihai notified Yu Yao that he could take away the small jade seal and the small jade block.

Yang Rui stopped by to pick up Yu Yao and went to the Special Cultural Relics Investigation Bureau. It happened that Yu Yao had agreed with him to go to Lin Fengcao's to enjoy the spectacle of the moon shadow together in the evening.

Regarding Yu Yao and Wu Chen's project, Yang Rui didn't ask a word, this is also a work habit.

For the time being, there was no progress in the issue of Chuanguo Yuxi. Yu Yao took the things and left. At the same time, he told Yang Sihai and Wu Chen that he might return to Jiangzhou in two days.Yang Sihai smiled and said, "It's been so long since I've been out, it's time to go back and keep in touch."

Yu Yao took the things and went straight to Cai Pengxi's courtyard.

After Cai Pengxi put away the small jade piece and the little jade man, he didn't let Yu Yao go, saying that Cai Chihuang came back last night and came to have lunch at noon today, so they happened to be together.

Yu Yao originally carried the pigeon blood red, even if Cai Chihuang didn't come back, he had to discuss with Cai Pengxi how to make a move.

Coincidentally, when Chi Huang went to Burma this time, in addition to the emerald material, he also received two rough gemstones, one ruby ​​and one sapphire.

When Cai Chihuang saw Yu Yao's pigeon blood red, he clicked his tongue and praised, "This kind of material is not easy to harvest in Myanmar."

"Does your company accept it?" Yu Yao asked along the way.

"Of course I accept it. But you don't know the way of the jewelry industry, so you don't take advantage of it." Cai Chihuang is now a little less arrogant than before, but he still feels a bit arrogant when speaking.

"How to say?"

"From raw materials to finished products, the company has budgets and estimates. Yours is the best, but if you collect it from the Han and Tang Dynasties, it will not exceed 2000 million."

Yu Yao smiled, "You won't be interested?"

"Yes, but it's not big. And now I'm helping you figure it out from your point of view." Cai Chihuang looked at Cai Pengxi, "Grandpa, this can be regarded as putting yourself in the shoes, and teaching the opportunity face to face, right?"

Cai Pengxi smiled slightly, saying that he was not sorry.

"Then what do you mean?" Yu Yao asked again.In the jewelry market, he is indeed inferior to Cai Chihuang.

"Two ways of thinking. One is to store value. If you don't sell it now, just keep it. Ruby is not a jade that has been speculated in a short time. Like jade, it has always had a status in the long history, and it is recognized by both Chinese and foreign countries. If it is damaged, the price will only get higher and higher. You keep this thing, which is much better than ordinary investment."

Since it was "two thoughts", Yu Yao didn't interrupt and continued to listen.

"Secondly, if you insist on selling, I suggest you go for a big auction. Last year, Sobis held a spring auction in the United States. A 500-carat pigeon's blood was originally sold. It rushed to 3000 million US dollars; as a result, two rich men who were obsessed with rubies chased it all the way, and the transaction price soared to more than [-] million US dollars!"

Yu Yao nodded, "I know this one, 'Huoshaoyun'!"

This ruby, named "Huoshaoyun" at the time, was too big at [-] carats, which caused a sensation in the jewelry industry.

Cai Chihuang also nodded, "Your one, of course, can't compare with that one. I think it has a little more than ten carats. But we accept, how much is 2000 million equivalent to US dollars? You go to the Garde next spring auction, The auction site on Hong Kong Island is the best, and you understand the specific reasons. In the end, it’s no problem to rush to 5000 million Hong Kong dollars!”

When Cai Pengxi heard this, he suddenly interjected, "You and that little Chen from Gard aren't playing together now, are you?"

"Grandpa, don't you know? I heard Xin'er just after I came back. The night before yesterday, this kid smoked marijuana with a former singer at home. He was reported by Chaoyang people and arrested!"

"Look at what kind of friends you have made!" Cai Pengxi snorted.

"I'm not into this stuff!" Cai Chi Huang waved his hand, and then said to Yu Yao, "Also, when you're negotiating with the auctioneer, besides the reserve price, ask for more, and increase the ratio of the bidding deposit!"

Yu Yao pondered, "Deposit? Most of the targets, the highest is [-]%."

The deposit is a kind of credit guarantee from the bidder to the auction house. If the bid is not settled, the deposit will not be returned.

There are no hard and fast rules for the amount and proportion of the deposit, and the auction company will set it according to its own operating characteristics, the condition of the lot, the credit rating of the bidder, and so on.But generally speaking, it is roughly 5.00% to [-]% of the estimated price or starting price.

In recent years, there have been many cases of non-payment in successful auctions. Some high-priced bidders feel that the auction is too high, and they will sacrifice the deposit, jokingly saying "pay the tuition fee".

"Your ruby, the deposit can be increased to 40.00%!" Cai Chihuang said surprisingly, "If you set the starting price at 2000 million Hong Kong dollars, the deposit can be set at 800 million!"

"It seems that there is no such precedent in the auction industry?"

"Why not? Japan has it. Two years ago, a piece of Su Shi's work was valued at [-] million, and the Japanese owner asked for a deposit of [-] million!"

"This is a special case, Garder may not agree."

"It's special, you have to look at things. Why did I let you leave Gard? Gard and Subis, just like Coca-Cola and Pepsi, have always been the two giants in competition. Subis is better than Gard in terms of gems. It has a wide range of resources; this year, Garde didn't have any decent gems to put up for auction, but yours is more than ten carats, and it's from the Qing Dynasty, and it's a semicircle, so it's an advantage!"

Yu Yao couldn't help giving a thumbs up, "If you say so, I propose a starting price of 2000 million and a 40.00% deposit. If they frown, I will immediately switch to Sobis?"

"I understand!" Cai Chihuang suddenly smiled, "Your luck is really not bad, there is one more thing!"
