Chapter 39 Jing Shizhen’s Rules
Su Xiaofan withdrew his gaze in disappointment. If Tong Dongjie, a big local tyrant, doesn't make a move, it might be hard to sell this Song Dingyao brush wash today.
"Such a rare object, Xiao Su, don't you consider collecting it yourself?"
Everyone present saw what Su Xiaofan meant, Zhao Zhengshan was even more puzzled.
Zhao Zhengshan has never sold one of the things that Zhao Zhengshan has picked up from Taobao for so many years, and all of them are left on the antique shelf at home as his own trophies.
"Uncle Zhao, my dad is not the same as your dad."
Su Xiaofan made a joke with a smile. Although his father has not been so tricked recently, his financial resources are not enough to allow him to collect antiques like Zhao Zhengshan.
"Xiao Su, do you really want to sell?"
Jing Shizhen looked at Su Xiaofan, a lucky boy. He hadn't seen such a big mistake in many years.
"Uncle Jing, I am in the antique business, why not sell it and keep it?"
Su Xiaofan nodded, and said: "I'm still young, I haven't reached the age of drinking tea every day to appreciate my collection, if I sell these, maybe I can find better things."
"What you said makes sense. You can only get in and out of that kind of game, so Zhengshan and his family can afford it."
Jing Shizhen nodded, and said to Su Xiaofan: "The objects identified in my Jingxintang are also related to Jingxintang. If you really want to sell them, I will show you three ways."
"Uncle Jing, tell me, I'm listening." Su Xiaofan immediately laughed when he heard that, he knew that Uncle Jing was helping him.
"The first way, you take 500,000, I will issue you an appraisal certificate, you can take this Dingyao brush washer to the auction house, and entrust them to auction it."
Jing Shizhen raised a finger. He didn't kill Su Xiaofan, but the items appraised by Jingxintang, and the fees were charged according to the value of the objects themselves. Fan has a discount.
Moreover, the appraisal certificate issued by Jing Shizhen is that it is a gold-lettered signboard, and when it arrives at the auction house, it will definitely be auctioned smoothly all the way.
"Uncle Jing, tell me the second way."
Su Xiaofan shook his head, he didn't have any roots in the antique shop, and he didn't know anyone in the auction house, if he was tricked by someone, he would lose everything.
"The second way is that you entrust this Song Dingyao brush washer to Jingxintang for auction."
Jing Shizhen took a look at her mobile phone and said, "It's July now, and there are still two months before Xiangjiang's autumn auction. I'll ask the auction house to create momentum for this item. I think it will be a good auction by then." price.
However, Jingxintang needs to charge 40% of the auction price, and you will bear the commission of the auction house after the transaction, as well as the seller's taxes and fees..."
"Uncle Jing, what is the approximate ratio of commission and tax?" Su Xiaofan asked, he didn't know anything about these.
"A normal auction house will charge a commission of 5% to 10%. If Jingxintang comes forward, it will be about 2% to 3%."
Jing Shizhen said: "The tax is your personal income tax. After deducting some expenses, it is about 20%."
"Fuck, it's so dark?" Su Xiaofan calculated in his mind.
Even if this engraved pen wash can sell for 20 million yuan, after deducting the 40% for Jingxintang, there will be 12 million left, and about 22% of the commission and taxes will be deducted. Probably more than 9 million yuan can be obtained, which is less than half of the transaction price.
"Let me tell you about the third option."
Seeing that Su Xiaofan didn't seem to be very happy with the second point, Jing Shizhen didn't wait for him to ask, and said directly: "You can also choose to sell this lot to Jingxintang."
"Jingxintang still accepts antiques?" Su Xiaofan knew that he had said something stupid as soon as he spoke.
"How fresh, Jingxintang doesn't accept antiques, do all the antiques they sell fall from the sky?"
Jing Shizhen laughed, "There are not many Ding kiln white porcelains in the world, maybe this wash can be sold at a higher price, and I won't take advantage of you. If you sell it to Jingxintang, you will receive 12 million yuan, including taxes and fees. Jingxintang paid for it for you."
"sold!"
After Su Xiaofan hesitated for a while, he agreed immediately. He had no way to do it, and he worked hard to sell it. The final harvest may not be as high as Jing Shizhen's price.
"You kid, you earn nearly 20 million a day, you have to pay attention to your mentality."
Jing Shizhen told Su Xiaofan that if it was Zhao Zhengshan, he would not say this, because more than 10 million is not a big number for Zhao Zhengshan.
But Su Xiaofan is different, he was a small vendor with a street stall before, and he is young, so getting rich suddenly may not be a good thing.
"I understand, Uncle Jing, don't worry."
Su Xiaofan nodded, he is the kind of person with strong self-control, and he is low-key, he will never go out to show off just because he has money.
And after earning more than 10 million, Su Xiaofan also fully understood the existence of repair value, and the meaning to him, there is repair value, making money is really not a problem for Su Xiaofan.
Of course, in the recent period, Su Xiaofan has no plans to take another shot. It can be said that he is lucky if he picks up the leak once or twice, but if he can pick up the leak with a shot, there must be a problem.
"Okay, let's go through the formalities, and I will send you money after signing the contract."
Jing Shizhen said to Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan: "I still have something to discuss, so I won't keep you two..."
Su Xiaofan and Zhao Zhengshan nodded when they heard the words, Tong Dongjie had been waiting beside him for a long time, obviously he had something to ask Uncle Jing for.
Although Jing Shizhen herself was not with her, she called in the head shopkeeper of Yanjing Jingxin Hall and asked him to go through the formalities for Su Xiaofan, while she and Tong Dongjie entered the inner room.
The chief treasurer of Jingxintang in Yanjing is surnamed Liu. He was an expert at the Xingong Museum earlier, and was recruited to Jingxintang by Jing Shizhen with a high salary. He and Zhao Zhengshan are very familiar.
Shopkeeper Liu, who had been staying in the outer hall just now, didn't know about Su Xiaofan's pick-up. After he came in, he was very surprised to hear what Zhao Zhengshan said. If it wasn't for Zhao Zhengshan to testify, he would definitely not believe it.
Compared with the Huanghuali pen container that was sold just now, the procedures for this Dingyao brush washer are more complicated. In addition to taking pictures, Su Xiaofan also needs to sign documents such as a disclaimer. After waiting for about an hour, the contract is fully signed Finish.
Looking at the information that popped up in the mobile banking, Su Xiaofan was also a little dazed.
I am afraid that the money I earn in a day is more than my father earned in ten years. Will I persuade my father not to go to sea again, and now I seem to be able to support my family.
"Shopkeeper Liu, did Jingxintang receive any good items recently?"
Seeing that Su Xiaofan had completed the formalities, Zhao Zhengshan chatted with shopkeeper Liu, "You also know that I rarely come to Yanjing now, so please show me something good to open my eyes."
"There are a few good things, but they are all collected by Uncle Jing."
It was only when shopkeeper Liu called Jing Shizhen that Su Xiaofan knew that Dareqing Jingshu was not just a name for her by juniors.
Some of the peers who are about the same age are also honored as Uncle Jing, which is a recognition of Jing Shizhen's status in the antique shop. Only those who followed Jing Shizhen to fight the world in the early years, such as the shopkeeper Yuan in Luochuan, would call him "Jing Shu". Jing Shizhen is Jing Ge.
"My father is about to celebrate his seventy-fifth birthday. I want to find a good object to celebrate my father's birthday."
After he was busy with Su Xiaofan's business, Zhao Zhengshan explained his intention of coming here, and the matter of picking up the mistakes with Su Xiaofan was just incidental, otherwise Zhao Zhengshan also knew a few experts with good eyesight in the antique market, so why bother to come all the way to the Jingxin Hall .
"Oh? This is a happy event, what are you going to give?"
Shopkeeper Liu naturally knows about Zhao Hengjian, a rich man who is well-ranked in the country, and he doesn't like ordinary things.
"When I celebrate my birthday, I will naturally give something with a good meaning. I wonder what Jingxin Hall has now?"
Zhao Zhengshan shook his head. His father's vision was very picky, and with his age and wealth, he would not judge the value of an object by its price. The key was whether he liked it or not.
"There are a lot of good things, the key depends on what you want." Shopkeeper Liu shook his head and said, "I haven't checked the warehouse recently, and some items were just put in the warehouse by Uncle Jing a few days ago. Check it out for you?"
Although she is the big shopkeeper of Yanjing Jingxin Hall, Jing Shizhen spends more than half of the year in Yanjing, so strictly speaking, this big shopkeeper often does the work of the second shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper Liu, can you let us go to the warehouse to have a look?" Zhao Zhengshan said: "We all know that Jingxintang's good things are stored here in Yanjing, and let us learn a lot."
In other cities, the antiques in Jingxin Hall are usually kept in the bank safe.
But Yanjing is different, because Yanjing Jingxin Hall itself is located in a prosperous area, and the security is not so good.
In addition, Yanjing has a large number of customers, almost every day customers want to see the real thing, it is really inconvenient to put it in the bank, so almost all the antiques of Yanjing Jingxintang are in the store.
"Hey, Mr. Zhao, this is against the rules. I don't have the right to let you into the warehouse."
Shopkeeper Liu shook his head. Only he and Jing Shizhen could enter Jingxintang's warehouse, not to mention Zhao Zhengshan. Even if he was an employee of Jingxintang, shopkeeper Liu had no right to bring him in.
"Zhengshan, you haven't left yet?"
While Zhao Zhengshan and shopkeeper Liu were talking, Jing Shizhen walked out of the inner room with Tong Dongjie.
"Uncle Jing, Mr. Zhao's father is about to celebrate his birthday. Mr. Zhao wants to see our warehouse. I say it's against the rules." Shopkeeper Liu hurried forward and told Zhao Zhengshan's request.
"Zhengshan, this is really against the rules." Jing Shizhen looked at Zhao Zhengshan.
"Uncle Jing, you are not at ease with me, I just want to learn more." Zhao Zhengshan said.
"Little boy, you can go back first, I agree with your matter, wait for me to contact you."
Jing Shizhen did not answer Zhao Zhengshan's words, but explained to Tong Dongjie who was on the side.
"Then thank you, Uncle Jing, I'll wait for your call, Xiao Su, this is my business card, I will contact you when I have time..."
Tong Dongjie quickly agreed, and left the Jingxin Hall, but left a business card for Su Xiaofan before leaving.
"You can enter the warehouse if you want, but you must buy something, and the price cannot be lower than 10 million!"
After Tong Dongjie left, Jing Shizhen turned her face to Zhao Zhengshan, "If you go in empty-handed and come out empty-handed, then I won't let you in. After all, I set the rules. If you go in and buy something, it won't count." Bad rules."
