Chapter 159 Master Zhang, You Are Awesome!
Zhang Yang had long wanted to take a closer look at what was hidden in this cultural relic warehouse in Nagasaki.
According to Boss Gong, this cultural relic warehouse is actually a distribution center for several chain antique shops in Nagasaki. As VIPs of antique shops, he and Miyuki have priority to purchase in the warehouse.
In fact, it is a backdoor.
"Master Zhang, what should we look at first?" Boss Gong asked Zhang Yang for his opinion.
Compared with the antique shop, the warehouse is a bit messy, and because it is too late, the staff are messing around, so it is actually difficult to find things.
"Just look at the most expensive ones!" Chen Yanguang suggested enthusiastically.
"Let's ask Miyuki what she wants first?" Zhang Yang said to Boss Gong.
After a brief communication, Sakura Girl only had one request, that the things should be related to Chinese Buddhist culture.
Because the other party wanted to take them back for worship.
Zhang Yang thought for half a second after hearing this and quickly made a decision: "Let's go and look at ivory."
It can be as expensive as the Buddha head, it is probably not a cultural relic lost in China, she won't feel sorry for it, and it has to be related to Buddhist culture...
Among the things Zhang Yang can think of, ivory products are the most suitable.
"I know where there is ivory."
Boss Gong raised his hand and walked to a pile of cartons with ease.
It can be seen that he bought a lot.
[Fuck! So many teeth]
[And the raw materials of the whole root? ]
[It's really outrageous]
"What's outrageous about this, my friends, this is in Japan."
"Whale teeth are contraband in China, but they live a good life and are still killing whales."
After explaining to the audience, Zhang Yang took a deep breath and got into the state.
"Pick up each one of you and let me take a look."
"OK, passed. Next one..."
"Continue, next one..."
"..."
Zhang Yang directly turned into a "scanner", first checking the authenticity, then the material, and finally the age and craftsmanship.
There are 23 ivory products in total, most of which are African ivory. The most expensive one is the whole ivory blank, but it is not so real.
"Which one to choose?" Chen Yanguang asked.
"Let her choose whatever she wants!" Zhang Yang replied indifferently.
"Ah?" Chen Yanguang and Boss Gong were stunned.
"Then what were you looking at just now?"
"I'm looking to see if there are any fake ones. There are two pieces that are pressed with ivory powder. If she chooses them, I will tell her." Zhang Yang said with a relaxed expression.
Anyway, she is not short of money, so she can choose whatever she wants.
Finally, Mixue picked a Buddha statue that was 10% more expensive than the Buddha head from a pile of ivory carvings.
It is a modern handicraft, but because of its large size, the price naturally rises.
After Chen Yanguang paid the money, the Buddha head was also exchanged.
[That's it? I took off my pants, just show me this]
[It's really unreasonable not to take us to the customs street tonight]
[Sakura girl has left, you should get off the air]
The two people who got the Buddha head also thought the same as the barrage, packing up and preparing to go off work.
Zhang Yang quickly called them:
"What are you doing? Don't you want the treasure?"
"Treasure?" Chen Yanguang asked subconsciously, and then reacted: "You said there are treasures in those ivory carvings?"
"Nonsense, how can you understand our country's antiques when you are playing with your daily life?" Zhang Yang said unhappily.
"I tell you, if I were your group, I would definitely focus on attacking the antique market in Japan next."
"This side is full of leeks!"
Chen Yanguang was excited, and Boss Gong was skeptical.
Under the eyes of the warehouse staff, they turned back.
"My dear, what time do they close?" Zhang Yang asked in advance.
"Theoretically, if there are customers, we will keep the business open, but they will probably chase us away soon."
"It's okay. When they come over, you can tell them that this guy named Chen is the boss of a domestic Internet company and gets excited at night."
"And he's very rich." Zhang Yang added.
These are all preparations beforehand, because he's going to make a move.
"Take away the oval plaque with three children carved on it, from the middle of the Qianlong period!"
Chen Yanguang picked it up and took a look. The information corresponding to the trademark was: "1949——".
Meaning: This is something from the middle of the twentieth century onwards.
"Can this be misread?" Boss Gong asked in confusion.
"I guess the person who appraised this thing has been fooled by many domestic imitations." Zhang Yang smiled and explained: "The edge of this ivory plaque has slight traces of burning, which looks like a mistake in aging."
"In fact, it's just that the old thing was not kept well."
"Take up the yellowed ivory tablet." Zhang Yang continued to pick up bargains.
"From the late Qing Dynasty?" Boss Gong picked it up and looked at the label and asked.
"It's a genuine Ming Dynasty tablet." Zhang Yang clapped his hands and said happily.
"The previous owner of this thing preserved it very well. Take it back and check it out. Maybe it's a cultural relic that has been passed down in an orderly manner and has been oiled and maintained."
"It's really a waste to leave it like this now."
[One person wrote in blood to empty this warehouse]
[Add me]
[Don't put pressure on the anchor, just do your best]
This is the first time Zhang Yang has seen such a gentle barrage.
But he has no time to reply to the barrage.
Because after taking four ivory carvings with cultural relic value, Chen Yanguang finally found the bronze ware he had been thinking about in a display cabinet.
"Master Zhang, what do you say? I still have a lot of money."
At this time, the warehouse staff came over and communicated with Boss Gong.
"Master Zhang, they are urging us."
"Okay, let's hurry up." Zhang Yang whispered to Chen Yanguang: "Let's look at the bronzes with words on them first."
"How about this one?"
Chen Yanguang pointed to an ancient black lacquer three-legged bronze furnace with inscriptions all over the furnace.
"There are too many words on it. I am almost suffering from intensive phobia."
"Let them play with this kind of modern crafts! Next one."
"This one is also fake..."
There are seventeen bronzes of all sizes in the warehouse with inscriptions, all of which are fake.
Zhang Yang thought he had come to the domestic antique market.
Forget it, let's look at the bronzes without inscriptions.
There are also more than ten pieces, only one bronze jue is a genuine product from the late Shang Dynasty, but it is very rusted.
Zhang Yang looked at the price tag, 180,000, which is more than 50% more expensive than the market price abroad.
"The bronze market in this place has been conquered by domestic merchants. Your group can give up the business in this sector."
"I tend to forget about this jug. The cultural relic is not valuable."
"No, forget it. It's hard to get a real thing."
"Besides, which man can refuse the bronze jug that King Zhou used to drink?"
Chen Yanguang insisted on buying it, saying that he would take it back and collect it well.
In this way, he would also be a man who owns bronze ware.
"I think you want to be King Zhou yourself, right?" Zhang Yang exposed.
"What about porcelain? Do you want to see it?" Chen Yanguang pretended not to hear Zhang Yang's words.
"Of course I have to see it. I can't leave them any good things, otherwise they will all be ruined."
At this time, Boss Gong, who had been watching for a long time, suddenly said:
"Master Zhang, if you want to find a bargain, you can go to Kyoto. There are Tang Sancai, Jianzhan and the like there."
"Why didn't you say it earlier?"
Chen Yanguang instantly felt that the returned porcelain in his hand was not fragrant.
