Chương 374: Chapter 374: The Real Goal
Hearing Ye Tian's inquiry, the stall owner suddenly felt ecstatic.
These two white stones from China, carved with unknown waterbirds, seem to have a lot of value, otherwise they would not make Steven so excited and even love it!
But what should be the price for these two stones? It's best to make a deal and make a fortune!
The stall owner's brain started to work at a high level, trying to combine the similar jade that he just saw on the Internet to find the most reasonable price!
Soon, he had the answer in his heart.
It's not wrong to open the deal asking at the highest price he saw! At least he won't be pitted, if Steven this bastard can't accept it, bargaining is not unacceptable!
The decision was made, he immediately smiled and said:
"Steven, thank you for helping me understand some traditional Chinese culture. It is indeed extensive and profound, and it is worthy of being an ancient civilization with a long history!
I checked on the Internet and found that this is a valuable antique art. Therefore, the price I ask was US$5 millions. How about it? Is it acceptable?"
After speaking, the vendor immediately stared at Ye Tian, looking forward to the perfect answer!
He dare to open his teeth! This is using him as triumphs!
Ye Tian looked at the stall owner dumbfounded, and almost laugh!
Does your eyes see that these two antiques are worth $5 millions? Even if him don't cheat you, the highest value of this pair of suet jade antiques will never exceed 50,000 US dollars!
$5 millions? It's black to the extreme!
After calming down for a while, Ye Tian immediately joked.
"Man, you are definitely the craziest stall owner I have ever seen. You shouldn't be doing business in the courtyard market. You should take the AK47 to rob the Federal Reserve. That way you might get $5 millions!
That's right! It has indeed a top jade with a value of US$5 millions, and there are more expensive ones, including priceless treasures, but these two jade objects are definitely not worth the price, or even far apart!
I don't understand it very much. What is the basis for your high price of USD 5 millions? I hope you can explain, and let me have a long experience, and learn from you the art of asking prices!"
The stall owner's face turned slightly red, and he seemed a little embarrassed to open his mouth for his lion.
But after all, this is an old player in the antique market, and has a time-tested face, and his expression returned to normal in an instant.
"Steven, I have referred to some Chinese jade auction prices. Even if the price is high, it should not be much higher. If you can't accept it, how much do you think is appropriate? Let's listen!"
Ye Tian did not quote immediately, but asked curiously:
"Man, did you check on which website? Can you show it to me? I also see what a $5 millions jade looks like!"
"Okay! I saw it on the Christie's website. There are a few jade auction records on it, and the price of the pictures is all available! There is no detailed introduction!"
With that, the stall owner took out his mobile phone and started to operate.
Soon he found the relevant records and showed them to Ye Tian.
Seeing the information on the phone screen, Ye Tian suddenly smiled helplessly, pointing to the information and explaining:
"Man, Chinese antique jade is different from gems. We pay more attention to humanistic value! These jade wares are very special, and these two gadgets are simply incomparable.
Let me talk about this round jade, which is called the jade bi. It is a ritual vessel in the Spring and Autumn Period of China 2500 years ago. It is the most important instrument of the China. It has an extremely noble status. It is a very rare antique jade!
Do you see these patterns on the surface of the jade? These are Chinese characters! Chinese characters that have been passed down for thousands of years are used to record our Chinese culture and inherit our national spirit!
By analyzing and studying these Chinese characters, we can verify the age of this jade bi, what is recorded, whether it is noble, and of course, including its market value.
All ancient Chinese jade articles with inscriptions are of higher value! This is the reason why this jade bi is worth $5 millions! Because it records history and has more research value! "
"Wow! Antique 2500 years ago! Exaggerated!"
The stall owner exclaimed, looking at the jade picture on the phone with shocked face, but it's not his own!
In addition to the shock, a hint of disappointment appeared in the eyes of the stall owner.
There are no hieroglyphs on this pair of jade, so the value is naturally greatly reduced.
After a short pause, Ye Tian pointed to another auction record and said:
"The jade in the picture is not too old. It only has a history of more than 300 years, but it is extremely valuable. The transaction price of US$4.6 milions illustrates this point!
Its price is so expensive because it is a jade seal used by ancient Chinese emperors. It is a symbol of supreme power. Its status is extremely noble, and its quantity is extremely rare!
This jade is also engraved with Chinese characters, which proves both the age and status. It belongs to a famous emperor in ancient China, and its natural value is extraordinary!"
"Gosh! This turned out to be the emperor's exclusive item. No wonder it's so expensive!"
The stall owner was shocked again and sighed.
The preparation is complete, you can see it in a poor way!
Ye Tian picked up two mandarin duck antiques and continued with a smile:
"Let's talk about these two jade articles! They are small in size and can be held with one hand. They add up to about 400 grams. They are just jade articles for enjoyment and cannot be compared with jade bi and jade seal!
They do not have any text information on their appearance, which makes it impossible to verify their age. The identification is not small, and the human value is greatly reduced. The price should not be higher than that!
Although I don't know the exact date, from the analysis of materials, carvings, and preservation conditions, I can be sure that the history of these two antique jades is only 260 years old.
The asking price of US$5 millions is too high. You should compare it with similar jade objects. I will find a few pieces of auction information. You can refer to it to understand how much the jade is worth! "
"Okay! I really want to know the true value of this to jade!"
The stall owner passed the phone to Ye Tian, his eyes filled with disappointment.
These two jade objects are not very valuable! Hopes of making a fortune were almost dashed.
After receiving the mobile phone, Ye Tian quickly found a few pieces of relevant information on the Internet, all of which were auction records of jade wares similar in size to these two antiques!
However, he stayed a little bit more here, and the jade auction records he found were rather complicated, including Hetian jade, Dushan jade, Xiu jade, etc., most of which were jade articles of nearly one to two hundred years old.
The prices of these jade articles are not very high, ranging from a few hundred dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, and rarely over one hundred thousand dollars, let alone more than one million dollars!
How did this old American stallholder will understand the difference? Seeing the pictures of these jade artifacts and the auction prices, he was immediately silly! His head is a little confused!
From 5 million US dollars to tens of thousands of US dollars, the price gap is too big! Have fun with yourself! A big windfall is completely a dream!
Seeing the stall owner's sluggish expression, Ye Tian suddenly laughed secretly.
You want to cheat me, there are no doors! You are waiting to be smashed by me!
Although the stall owner was brought into the pit step by step, and it seemed that he was deceiving, Ye Tian was not afraid that the stall owner would wake up and look for the debt!
Jade appraisal is too subjective, except himself, who can determine at a glance that this is a mutton jade hand piece from the Qianlong period? Even the most savvy jade appraisal expert can only draw a conclusion with much research!
If someone doubts, he can solve all the problems with just one sentence, and who can bite him?
More importantly, as long as these two antique pieces enter his own hands, it will immediately withdraw from the market and become his own private collections. It is impossible for others to know it true value!
It's time to strike while the iron is hot, the timing couldn't be better!
And can take the opportunity to approach the main goal, that high-value modern work of art.
Thinking of this, Ye Tian immediately smiled and shot.
"Man, I like these two jades very much, not because of how expensive they are, but because they are antique works of art from China, that is my country, and I love everything there!
I plan to collect these two jade objects to relieve my homesickness. In addition, there is another reason. These two jade objects symbolize love. I am going to give one of them to my girlfriend.
It is based on these two points that I want to buy these two jade ware. Of course, the price can never be US$5 millions. That is ridiculous! I offer 40,000 dollars, think about it!"
"Ah! Only $40,000?"
The stall owner was extremely disappointed, and the dream of wealth was completely drained.
But deep in his heart, $40,000 is also acceptable! Better than nothing!
If the rate of return on investment is calculated, he has already made nearly 200 times the profit on this pair of jade ware. What is not satisfied?
"Yes, it is 40,000 US dollars! If you can accept it, we can trade now, and you will get four rolls of Franklins. If you can't accept it, it can only mean that I have no relationship with these two jade objects!
Ye Tian said with a smile, very relaxed.
Want to catch it! This is the most frequently used tactic in antique transactions and the most effective tactic!
The stall owner did not respond, but Ye Tian's voice came out again.
"Hey! Why are there still oil paintings of black girls? It's too rare! And it's Latin American style, man, do you know of who is the painter of that work? It's interesting!"
Ye Tian said lightly, pointed his finger at an oil painting on the booth and asked, with a curious expression on his face.
However, his eyes hidden under the sunglasses are extremely bright, direct light!
This is his main goal, that piece of modern art of extraordinary value!
