Play treasure master

Chapter 645
Lai Qi nodded, "Yes, and there is no bargaining. If Boss Yu thinks it's too high, then I'll leave. I'm not bothering you today."

Pu Jie hesitated to speak.

He couldn't understand how much the box was worth. Even if it was an old mahogany box with inlays, but the inlays were made of ordinary materials, it wouldn't be worth fifty thousand anyway.

If this box is really a product from the Republic of China, the market price will definitely not exceed [-].Even a coincidence, any price is possible.

However, Yu Yao's shots have always been steady and ruthless, even picking up everything.It's impossible for him to be okay with Lai Qi to tease and ask around, he really wants to be like this.

Yu Yao smiled, "Don't hurry, listen to me."

Lai Qi also smiled, "Then tell me."

"[-] is indeed a bit high, how about reducing it a little?" Yu Yao continued.

After hearing this, Lai Qi was slightly taken aback.

If you want to buy and sell antiques, you have to listen carefully.For example, "buy it now", "no bargaining", and "no bargaining", these are often not true.

Therefore, although Lai Qi said so, even he himself did not expect that Yu Yao did not bargain directly, but had a very gentle chat.

"This, it's not me who set the price on the floor, Boss Yu, I paid for this set together. It can match the porcelain of Yongzheng official kiln. This box is not bad." Lai Qi didn't completely stop talking.

"Don't say Yongzheng official kiln so firmly, I'm a little crazy after hearing it." Pu Jie said with a smile on the side.

"In this way, the sale of porcelain will not be successful. Now I only take the box, and I won't waste your time. I will take one last bite." Yu Yao said slowly, twirling his fingers.

"You say." Lai Qi blurted out.

"Fifty thousand is really high, I think, four is not nice, 39999, it's a sincere price." Yu Yao said.

"This..." Lai Qi pondered.On the surface he pondered, but in fact he already had the urge to agree.

He didn't fully understand the box, but Zun Pipa understood it, biting hard on his mouth, but it was not a Yongzheng official kiln, everyone knew it.

If it must be genuine, is it still necessary to sell it like this?
Therefore, although Lai Qi didn't understand this mahogany box, he didn't have too much expectation.It's just that he didn't expect that when Yu Yao saw through Pipa Zun and he was about to end, Yu Yao actually offered to buy this box.

Of course, after Yu Yao opened his mouth, he still had a sense of vigilance, so he looked at the box carefully again, but no matter how careful he was, he didn't see anything wrong.

However, although he didn't see any reason, Yu Yao was able to buy it at a not-so-low price, which made him mutter again.

This psychology is very complicated.

People, sometimes what is lacking is not IQ, a little fluke or a little bit of taking advantage of the psychology may tear the meticulous logic network of thinking.

What if Yu Yao got it wrong?At the price of this box, what if I make a lot of money?

Ha ha.

"Okay! Come on, I'm not a pussy either!" Lai Qi gestured OK, saying that he was not a pussy, but this gesture was really a bit pussy.

Pu Jie didn't interrupt during the transaction.

After the payment was settled, Yu Yao found a decent brocade box for Lai Qi from the shop and gave it to him.

After I came to unpack the things, I didn't stay too long, and then I left.

After sending Laiqi away, after Pu Jie closed the door again, he asked anxiously, "Did you miss it again?"

"What do you think?" Yu Yao lightly stroked the inlay on the box cover, and stroked the trunk of the ancient pine with his index finger.

After rowing, row again.

Pu Jie suddenly realized, and went to take a closer look.

"It seems to be words! Zhou..." Pu Jie rubbed his eyes, "No, I need a magnifying glass."

Yu Yao smiled slightly, "This money is just a supporting evidence. This inlay is so ingenious. Even in the peak of the Qing Dynasty, it was difficult to have such a rich, detailed and exquisite work."

"I said that you have done a lot of things like this! Buying a tree and returning pearls, flowers blooming inside the wall and fragrant outside the wall..." Pu Jie muttered while looking at it with a magnifying glass.

"Zhouzhuzhi!" Pu Jie's complexion changed drastically after seeing the signature, "This is a box from the Ming Dynasty!"

Zhou Zhu, a master of inlaid treasures in the Ming Dynasty, was mainly active in Yangzhou during the Jiajing period, and his inlaid treasures are world-famous.The biggest feature of Zhouzhu is that it uses a wide range of materials.

This is not an ordinary feature.You must know that different materials have different properties, and it would be great to be able to master several kinds of materials proficiently.Therefore, craft masters since ancient times are often more specific, and there are different masters in different categories.

There are very few relevant historical materials for this Zhouzhu. It is said that materials such as gold, silver and jade, coral pearls, crystal agate, tortoise shell clam, green and green pine, mother-of-pearl tooth horns, beeswax agarwood, etc. have been used, and the themes involved are extensive. Landscapes, figures, flowers and trees, pavilions and pavilions have all been done.

Known as "various colors, indescribable, there is no wonder in ancient times".

Of course, his craftsmanship is limited to inlays, and only inlaid patterns on wood or lacquerware.

Zhou Zhu's works are available in museums and auctions, but they are very rare.

One can imagine the value of a genuine Zhou Zhu inlaid with hundreds of treasures.And in some auctions, even if there is no inscription, or something that is not sure, but only suspected to be Zhou Zhu's work based on the craftsmanship and year, it will fetch a high price of more than one million.

"Otherwise, how could I offer him such a high price?" Yu Yao replied.

"Actually, you can press it again." While Pu Jie was excited, he didn't forget this.

"No." Yu Yao shook his head, "You can't just follow his [-], it's so easy to buy bombs; and it can't be too low, if it's too low, his luck will not play a big role. After all, I saw that Pipa respected Really, he won't think that my eyesight is low, and I can't be tempted by the price."

"Good guy!" Pu Jie laughed loudly, "It's too bad!"

Yu Yao lowered his head and lit a cigarette, but he pondered, because he was still thinking about some things.

At this time, Pu Jie asked again, "You said, such an awesome box, why would it be used to match such a high imitation? Although this high imitation is indeed very high."

"It's hard to say. It's possible that it really paid off." Yu Yao replied, "Look, the picture on the Pipa Zun is the seal of Marquis Feng, and the inlaid pattern on the box cover is the rising sun, the two echo each other. It’s possible that the original consignors got them separately, and it seems that the size fits well, and the theme echoes, so it’s a complete match.”

"How could Zhou Zhu, such a master of inlaying treasures, use so many inexperienced materials?" After hearing this, Pu Jie asked a second question.

"Actually, although materials are expensive or cheap, the most important thing is how to use them." Yu Yao explained, "For example, in this round of red sun, you said coral is more expensive, but no matter what kind of coral, it is not as good as the red he used. The color of chalcedony is more like the red sun in mid-heaven."
