*************
The middle-aged man who took the lead introduced Fang Bo and the young man. Sure enough, Jin Muchen read it right. This young man should be the backbone of their group.
Fang Bo smiled and shook hands with the other party, while the other party was very casual and gently reached out and shook hands with Fang Bo.
The middle-aged man who took the lead was surnamed Zhang, and he was an old relationship with Fang Bo. It was so unintentional when he came to the United States before. He went to Fang Bo’s store and bought some good things from Fang Bo. After getting out of control, he became good friends with Uncle Fang, and he came to Uncle Fang's store several times almost every year.
"By the way, during this period of time, Lao Fang, have you collected any good things and showed them to everyone?"
Everyone chatted for a while, and then went straight to the point. Uncle Fang didn't talk nonsense. He went to the door and flipped the sign that said OPEN. Then he went back to the counter at the back and took out a few small boxes.
A few people gathered around and opened the boxes. There were several jade carvings and jade plaques in the boxes. At first glance, they were the fine carvings of Hetian jade.
Jin Muchen doesn't know much about these, but thinks that these ancient jade carvings are quite beautiful, while Boss Zhang over there has already commented on them.
"Good thing! Look at this Pisces Annunciation, the carving is so beautiful, and the Hetian jade is not bad, it can be called flawless white jade, the old jade of Hetian, look at this color, and then look at this bag Pulp, hey, absolutely."
"Well, this carving is really good, I should look like something from the Qing Dynasty."
"What is like, he is from the Qing Dynasty..."
Boss Zhang and the other two fat bosses were chatting and commenting on the jade plaques and carvings of Hetian jade. It seemed that they were very satisfied with the jade wares.
Doing antique business in the United States, especially Fang Bo’s business, the rules are different from those in China. All kinds of objects are clearly marked with prices. Unlike in China, sellers like lions to open their mouths and quote very high false prices, and then Let consumers haggle the price, those who know how to do it are fine, and those who don’t understand are likely to be deceived.
But in the United States, it is illegal to do that, so the antique shops here are usually clearly marked, and even the quoted price is about a quarter lower than the price of the same type of antiques in China.
Before he came, the boss had already explained the rules here to several other bosses, so they were not worried. Uncle Fang would sit on the ground and raise the price and see what he liked, even if he spoke freely, there was no problem. It was written clearly, and the price was nothing to a big boss like them.
But the boss surnamed Wang didn't seem to like these pieces of jade too much. Anyway, after these pieces of jade were taken out, he didn't move his eyelids much, obviously he didn't care much.
At this time, the boss also quickly tasted the taste. Seeing that the young man surnamed Wang was not interested, he quickly said to the uncle.
"Old Fang, do you have any other good things here? Don't hide them, we came all the way here, can't we just use these few pieces of jade to send us away?"
Fang Bo was waiting for these words. He turned around and went to the back, and soon brought out an antique mahogany box. The carvings on the outside of the box were exquisite, and it even showed that the objects inside were not ordinary.
Opening the box in front of several people, the golden satin immediately doubled the value of the items in the box.
But Jin Muchen, who had been appearing next to the crowd as a servant serving tea and water, almost fell to the ground without the teapot in his hand when he saw the open bowl with a yellow background and pastel five-claw cloud dragon pattern in the box. .
This Uncle Fang is also true. He doesn't even tell himself that he is selling it now. This bowl is exactly the one he took out for Uncle Fang to see half an hour ago.
Before, he simply put it in a cardboard box. Now, after Fang Bo's packaging, the B box of this bowl immediately appeared a few grades higher, and the spirits of the people on the opposite side were all attracted at once. come over.
Even Boss Wang, who had always had a light expression before, couldn't help but turn his eyes and focus his attention on this bowl.
"Hey, Mr. Zhang, Mr. Wang, take a look at it slowly, this is just the Yongzheng yellow-ground pastel five-claw cloud-dragon pattern open bowl that I just received recently."
Fang Bo seemed to be talking to Mr. Zhang, but in fact, his eyes were mainly on Mr. Wang. He had already seen that Mr. Wang was actually the protagonist of the group.
"Hey! It's really a good thing! I said, Lao Fang, you are not kind, why didn't we take out this good thing when we came in before?"
Mr. Zhang was very excited. He picked up the bowl and put it in front of him to observe carefully. Several other bosses also surrounded Lao Zhang, watching while waiting for Lao Zhang to explain to them.
As for Mr. Wang, sitting next to Mr. Zhang, he was silent, but his eyes were all fixed on this bowl. Obviously, this bowl moved his heart.
Mr. Zhang seemed to be very knowledgeable, so he grabbed the bowl and began to evaluate it to everyone.
"Well, this bowl is beautiful in color and in good condition. Although the mouth of the bowl is damaged, it is not very obvious, and it has been repaired, and the repair method is very clever. Moreover, the body of this bowl is finely processed, and the texture is delicate and light. The white is exquisite and the weight is moderate. The glaze surface is moist and even, smooth and white, bright and flawless. Looking at the bottom model, although the mark is the Ming Chenghua annual system, it just shows that this bowl is the authentic product of the Yongzheng period, and this But the five-claw cloud dragon model should be a utility device dedicated to the royal family..."
"Really? Old Zhang, show me quickly..."
The other bosses immediately chatted around the bowl and looked at it, but these people looked at it, but couldn't tell why. Obviously, they were just beginners in antiques, and they didn't know as much as the boss.
On this side, Boss Zhang whispered to Boss Wang, who had been quiet before, and Boss Wang kept his eyes on the bowl while listening to the introduction of Zhang Zhang. superior.
Soon, while the other people were watching the bowl, Boss Zhang turned his face and looked at Fang Bo with a smile.
"Old Fang, at what price do you plan to sell this bowl?"
"Hehe, not much, thirty thousand dollars."
Jin Muchen was standing next to him pouring tea for a few people. At this time, when he heard Fang Bo quoted such a price, he couldn't help but sighed Fang Bo's black belly. Before Fang Bo told himself that this bowl only started at 10,000 US dollars, but now a Zhangkou asked others for 30,000 yuan. I really didn't expect Fang Bo to have such a side.
But think about it again, isn't that the case with the antique business? If it does not open for three years, it will take three years to open!
"30,000 US dollars? There have been several auctions at domestic auctions in the past two years, with prices ranging from hundreds of thousands to 300,000. This bowl of yours is not very big, and it is still practical. The bowl is still injured, and I think $30,000 is a bit high.”
Which Boss Wang was talking about this time? As the saying goes, he is the one who buys the goods. As soon as Boss Wang opened his mouth, Uncle Fang knew that the business had a door. It seemed that the other party really liked this bowl.
"Mr. Wang, it seems that you are very interested in this bowl, why don't you make a price?"
Fang Bo looked at the boss Wang with a smile and asked. At this time, the other bosses silently stopped talking.
Looking at what they mean, it is obvious that they all like this bowl, but because of the identity of this Boss Wang, they dare not fight with Boss Wang, so they should be more hopeful that this Boss Wang becomes a monk, If they didn't reach Fang Bo's psychological price, then the two sides collapsed, and only then did they have a chance to make a move.
Boss Wang, turned around and glanced at the bowl on the table, then raised his head to look at the staring bosses beside the table, but after his eyes swept past those people, he returned to the place again. When only the bowl was served, the bosses immediately changed their attitudes. These guys are all good people. This Boss Wang's attitude is so obvious. If they are not literate, they will be too stupid. .
"Boss Fang, the mouth of your bowl is hurt, I don't think it's worth the price. UU reading www.uukanshu.com"
"Yes, do you think it can be cheaper?"
These guys, who didn't really want them to reach a deal, actually opened their mouths to help Boss Wang bargain.
For a while, even Jin Muchen couldn't help, and began to doubt the identity of Boss Wang. Seeing the attitude of this group of people towards Boss Wang, the stars and the moon, and vying to beat the horse, I can't wait to recognize the attitude of my father, it's difficult. Couldn't this boss be a red noble?
Hmm, it looks a bit like that.
At this time, Lao Zhang also turned his face to look at Fang Bo and said with a smile: "Lao Fang, we are also old friends. Your bowl is good, but can you think that the price can be cheaper? My friends. , but they are all cool people, this time we have made friends, and everyone will be able to visit your store in the future."
"Yes, yes, do you want to see the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face?"
"That's right, Boss Fang, would you like a discount? From now on, everyone will be friends, and I will definitely come to visit you!"
"That's right, make money with anger! If you give in, just be a friend!"
A bunch of guys immediately started to help, and Fang Bo touched his chin at this time, and shook his head with a wry smile.
"Well, who let Lao Zhang be my old customer, and you guys are my new friends. The price is 28,000 yuan. I can't let it go any more, and I will lose money!"
Jin Muchen, who was standing on the side, heard Fang Bo's words, and couldn't help sighing at Fang Bo's black belly. It was the first time he saw Fang Bo's businessman side.
