New book for collection, please recommend!
*************
Wang Xueming likes to collect, but he is definitely not a vulgar person. He has been to the United States many times, and he has also visited many antique stores in the United States.
But most of the antique shops can't arouse his interest now. After all, he has more knowledge, so that's what happened. In his opinion, there are really few good things in those antique shops.
However, Fang Bo’s antique shop is different from the ones he has visited before. In this unremarkable shop, some good things can appear one after another, especially the things he likes. This makes this shop and Fang Bo, in his heart immediately became different.
Fang Bo was indifferent when he arrived, shrugged his shoulders, and said nothing.
Although it was Yuan Datou who put down the signed version, Wang Xueming's eyes never left this set of Yuan Datou, as if he was afraid that in the blink of an eye, this set of Yuan Datou would fly away.
And just in his tone just now, he was absolutely determined to win this signed version of Yuan Datou.
Fang Bo looked up and saw Jin Muchen standing beside him. Of course, Jin Muchen would not reject this generous boss Wang.
His signature version of Yuan Datou was originally intended to be sold. Fang Bo said before that this set of Yuan Datou was very valuable, but that was also referring to the domestic market.
This set of silver coins, if shot in the United States, may not be too appealing to these Americans. Although Europeans and Americans also like to collect Chinese antiques, they prefer porcelain, calligraphy and painting, or woodcarving furniture. The old collections, such as these modern silver coin collections, are generally not very attractive to them.
When Fang Bo told Jin Muchen about the value of this set of Yuan Datou before, Jin Muchen still had a headache, how to bring this set of Yuan Datou back to China to sell.
Who would have thought that buyers will come to you automatically now, and he is still a big boss with a lot of money?
Jin Muchen didn't hesitate at all, nodded at Fang Bo, then Fang Bo turned his head to look at Wang Xueming with a smile, and Boss Wang asked.
"What? Xiao Wang, do you like this set of Yuan Datou very much?"
"Yes, I just like it. Do you intend to sell the signed version of Yuan Datou from Boss Fang? If you are willing, make an offer!"
Hey! It's so cool, it's hard to believe.
It seems that Boss Wang really likes Yuan Datou of this signed edition. You must know that people who buy antiques in general like to haggle, especially Chinese antique collectors.
It looks good in your heart, even if you like it to the extreme, but your face will be tense, bargaining with you, pulling a bit, and all the means of rubbing and blistering can be used for you.
But the boss Wang in front of him is not the same as those traditional collectors. If he likes it, he likes it. He doesn't hide it, nor does he bargain with you. Such a client cannot be disliked by anyone.
Uncle Fang raised his eyebrows: "Okay, Xiao Wang is really arrogant. I like to deal with customers like you. I think you should know the price of this signed version of Yuan Datou in China."
"Well, if the quality of a single piece is good, the price should be between 30,000 and 40,000 yuan. There is absolutely nothing to say about the quality of your set."
Wang Xueming answered in a straightforward manner, and it seems that he is definitely not the kind of layman who knows nothing.
"Yes, the price of a single piece is like that, but this set I have here is a complete set, ranging from one yuan to five cents. There are all five samples, and there are two pieces of each grade. This kind of quality is top-grade. According to the rules, the price of the set is probably at least three times higher than that of the single product!"
Fang Bo is also an old connoisseur. Although he doesn't know much about the current domestic market of Yuan Datou, according to Wang Xueming's quotation, he naturally has a judgment in his heart.
Hearing Fang Bo's offer, Jin Muchen, who was standing beside him, could only try to suppress his heartbeat, but it was still fluttering.
Such a Yuan Datou, even if it is 30,000, this set of ten silver coins is 300,000, and tripled it, that is 900,000.
900,000 RMB, that is more than 140,000 US dollars. If you can really have this money, then you can solve your boss's problem.
And Wang Xueming here has no intention of bargaining at all: "Well, this price is really not expensive, very fair, so, in the United States, I don't have that much renminbi on me, I guess you don't charge it either, I'll just give it in dollars. , the fraction is all, let's just make it $150,000!"
Wang Xueming made such an offer, but Jin Muchen and Fang Bo were stunned when they heard it.
Fang Bo also estimated the price based on his own estimates, and the price was ambiguous. He didn't say it too clearly. Even if it was calculated based on the minimum single 30,000 yuan, this set was only 900,000 yuan. According to the current exchange rate, if If the interest rate difference given by the bank is taken out, it is estimated that it will be more than 130,000 US dollars in exchange.
But this Boss Wang is good, and the odds are waived. According to the understanding of normal people, that is to give 130,000 US dollars, but this Boss Wang gave 20,000 more, and directly gave a high price of 150,000. Jin Muchen is really This is the first time I see a boss who gives money like this.
Fang Bo has been in the antique business for so many years, and this is the first time he has encountered such a customer.
You said that if you go to a restaurant and give a tip, that’s fine, but this is an antique shop, and people’s tip is usually three or five yuan, but this guy is 20,000 yuan. Ha, is there something wrong with this guy's brain?
A tip of 20,000 yuan can definitely be regarded as a super luxurious tip!
As soon as Wang Xueming looked up and saw Fang Bo and Jin Muchen looking at him, he immediately understood what the two were thinking, so he laughed and said.
"You don't have to look at me like this, I have no problem with my mind. The reason why I gave this price is because, if this signed version of Yuan Datou is auctioned in China, it will definitely exceed one million yuan, so, I 900,000 won is a bargain. Second, I really like this set of Yuan Datou."
Wang Xueming said here, paused, and then continued to speak.
"Last year, there was a spring auction in China, and there was a set of Yuan Datou, signed version, three Yuan Datou gold, silver and copper one-yuan sample coins in the auction. It was the Tianjin Mint, and the samples before the official launch of Yuan Datou. At that time, it sold for a high price of 1.4 million, and the guy who got the signed set of coins was a buddy of mine.嘚se, I think he has been upset for a long time. Haha, this time, after I take this complete set of signed copies and go back, I must let him take a good look, he is not the only one who has such treasures. And this set of Yuan Among the big heads, the most valuable are actually the two Zhongyuan coins. The Yuan Datou with this stamp is extremely rare in China at present. Even if the value of a single piece is very high, it is also very worth collecting. So I give Your $150,000 is actually a little bit of my heart, lest if you learn about the domestic market in the future, you will think that I have deceived you."
This Wang Xueming is really open, and when he said this, Fang Bo and Jin Muchen were relieved.
Especially Fang Bo, although he has some knowledge of antiques, he mainly focuses on porcelain, calligraphy and painting, and miscellaneous items such as ancient coins. The current market situation of Yuan Datou in China has actually grown like this.
And Jin Muchen doesn't matter at that time. Although he knows that if he goes to auction, the price of his Yuan Datou auction may be higher, but considering those auction houses, high handling fees, and taxes to be paid, etc., then This kind of transaction is the most cost-effective for him, and the most important thing is not to wait that long.
Wang Xueming made a phone call, and soon a strong man in a suit walked in from the outside with a guy who looked like an accountant. The accountant took out a large kraft paper bag from his carry-on leather bag.
It contains exactly 150,000 US dollars of old banknotes. For antique business, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com generally likes cash transactions, because it can save a lot of troublesome links, and the most important thing is to avoid taxes.
"Haha, Boss Fang, I really didn't expect that after visiting you twice, you brought me two consecutive surprises. It seems that you are really my senior expert. A few days ago, I also visited the West Coast of the United States. There are a lot of antique stores, but to be honest, there really aren’t many things I like in them. Even if there are, those bosses are asking random prices, and they really take me as a slaughter. At that time, the East Coast this time The trip didn't come in vain. It's really nice to meet you. This is my business card. If you have something good to do in the future, please call me anytime."
Wang Xueming exchanged a few words with Fang Bo again, and after learning that Fang Bo had nothing in his hands that interest him, he got up and said goodbye.
Before leaving, he politely handed Uncle Fang his business card. After listening to what he said before leaving, Jin Muchen also vaguely understood what Wang Xueming meant. No wonder he was so generous before, it seemed that he wanted to talk to Fang. Bo, maintain a long-term business relationship.
The extra 20,000 people gave him was just asking for tolls, and Fang Bo was certainly not happy to be able to hand in such a fixed and generous customer. You must know that such a channel is very important in the business of antique stores.
Of the 150,000 dollars, Uncle Fang put a lot of money into Jin Muchen's pocket. Jin Muchen tried his best to leave a part for Uncle Fang, but Uncle Fang insisted not to.
In the words of Uncle Fang, I am not short of money, it is enough for me, and you are just short of money, and your parents are in trouble, so you should give your parents the money first. Send back part of it.
