Chapter 286

"Young man is arrogant!"

An old man glared at Jiang Yuan, "This is the item we selected for the grand finale auction, and you actually said there's something wrong with it?"

Jiang Yuan nodded, "There is a problem."

Jiang Yuan didn't want to explain, so he looked at Chen Qiping and said:

"Withdraw it. Don't say it's a fake. Even if it's genuine, it's not qualified to be the finale."

As soon as these words came out, the old men became even more angry.

“If the bowls and chopsticks used by Emperor Qianlong for his meals were not enough, then what would be enough?”

Jiang Yuan smiled, looked around the room, and then walked to the safe he brought.

Seeing Jiang Yuan trying to open the safe, several security guards immediately tried to stop him.

Chen Qiping waved his hand to stop them.

Jiang Yuan opened the box and took out the Qianlong imperial folding fan inside.

"You haven't had time to identify this fan yet, have you?"

One of the old men snorted coldly, "I joined the auction temporarily, so of course I didn't have time to appraise it."

After saying that, he took the fan handed over by Jiang Yuan, opened it, and his eyelids jumped immediately.

But in the next moment, he closed the fan and gave it back to Jiang Yuan.

"If the treasure fan made by Qianlong's imperial pen is authentic, it must be a priceless thing, and it is impossible to appear among the people."

Jiang Yuan smiled, looked at Chen Qiping and said:

"Bring the fan as the grand finale."

Chen Qiping nodded, "What's the starting price?"

Jiang Yuan thought for a while and said with a smile:

"Just eight hundred thousand."

Chen Qiping was stunned when she heard the price.

You know, the starting price for the set of bowls and chopsticks used by the royal family during the Qianlong period that Jiang Yuan said was problematic was only 300,000.

"I think the price of 800,000 is too low."

Jiang Yuan smiled and said:

"Just listen to me."

Several old masters looked at Chen Qiping angrily.

"Mr. Chen, do you want to follow suit?"

"Are you going to let Jiade Auction Company be ruined at today's auction?"

Chen Qiping shook his head, "Seniors, I believe in Jiang Yuan."

"well!"

Several old masters stamped their feet in anger.

"I think Jiade will be destroyed today!"

Jiang Yuan and the other masters were so angry that they felt tight in their chests, so they walked to safe No. 123 with a smile, opened it, took out the small bowl inside and said:

"You think this pair of bowls and chopsticks can be the grand finale, because you have confirmed that they are genuine."

"But some of you overlooked something."

"This bowl is indeed from the official kiln, and the bright yellow and dragon and phoenix patterns are indeed only

Only the royal family can use it. If you look at the base, glaze and coating, 99 out of 100 people will see it as real."

"But I have to say it's fake!"

"What's the reason? You'd better tell me one, two, three, or you have to apologize to us!"

Jiang Yuan smiled, feeling a little embarrassed himself.

Jiang Yuan looked at Chen Qiping and coughed twice in embarrassment.

"Actually, if you ask me to appraise this pair of bowls and chopsticks, that can be regarded as after-sales service~"

"After-sales service?" Chen Qiping was a little confused, "Jiang Yuan, please stop being so pretentious, the auction will start soon."

Jiang Yuan nodded, looked sharply, and said in a deep voice:

"This is actually produced by Jiangjiacun Ceramics Factory."

"However, the porcelain bases we produce will all be owned by Jiangjiacun Ceramics Factory. This is also to prevent interested people from using them as antiques to deceive others."

A master chef became even more angry, "The firing technique of this imperial bowl has long been lost!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and nodded, "The director of our Jiangjiacun Ceramics Factory is called Chen Zhong, and he is a famous master in Jingdezhen."

"He restored many techniques, and the firing technique of this small bowl is just one of them."

"I'm ashamed to say that this small bowl ended up here. I guess someone stole the sample that Director Chen Zhong made when he restored the technology."

"Impossible! I don't believe there are people with such superb imitation skills!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and shook his head, "Seniors, if you don't believe it, you can go to Binhai Jiangjiacun Ceramics Factory and have a look."

"Let's do this, Qiping, give me a mobile phone to use."

Chen Qiping nodded, turned around and walked out of the room. A minute later, she came back with Big Brother.

Jiang Yuan directly dialed the number of the ceramic factory and asked the person there to notify Chen Zhong to pick up the phone. After Chen Zhong's voice rang, Jiang Yuan asked straight to the point:

"Director Chen, has one of your samples been stolen?"

"How did you know?" Chen Zhong's voice was full of surprise, "I feel depressed when I talk about this."

Jiang Yuan's voice turned cold, "We have already said that things produced by the village's ceramic factory cannot be used to deceive people. We must find out who did it without mercy."

Chen Zhong sighed, "It was not stolen by the villagers."

"Two months ago, several customers from country Y came to the village ceramics factory for an on-site inspection, and I let them visit the sample room."

"By the time I found out something had been stolen, they would have already left."

"I can't provide any evidence to prove that it was stolen by them."

Several old masters heard the conversation between Jiang Yuan and Chen Zhong and still refused to believe it.

One of them shouted:

"Speaking on the other side of the phone, what kind of porcelain did you say was stolen from you?"

Chen Zhong on the other side of the phone paused and said slowly:

"A small bowl with bright yellow glaze imitating the golden dragon pattern of the palace during the Qianlong period."

"It also comes with a pair of chopsticks made of old huanghuali wood."

When they heard this, the faces of several old masters turned red and they were suddenly speechless.

Chen Qiping also looked helpless. She didn't expect such a big mistake to be made.

The porcelain from Jiangjiacun Ceramics Factory was almost sent to the auction house as the grand finale.

If word of this spreads, Jiangjiacun Ceramics Factory will definitely become popular, but on the other hand, Jiade Auction Company will definitely go bankrupt because of this incident.

Jiang Yuan himself did not expect such a thing to happen.

Seeing that the old men were silent, Jiang Yuan looked at Chen Qiping and said:

"Just do as I say, don't worry, everything else will be fine."

Chen Qiping nodded, turned and walked out of the room.

Just as Jiang Yuan was about to leave, several old men all looked at Jiang Yuan.

"It's our fault, and we admit it, but if you want to say that this fan can be used for the finale, do you have any specific explanation?"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "You guys will know this problem soon."

At this time, Chen Qiping's voice could be heard outside.

Then a young girl wearing a cheongsam walked in, picked up the safe numbered one and walked out.

Soon, Chen Qiping's voice introducing something could be heard outside.

Jiang Yuan pushed the door open and walked out, then sat down between Ye Zhiqiu and Zhang Chuhong calmly.

The two of them didn't ask any questions, but looked at Chen Qiping on the stage.

"The starting price is 18,000. If you like it, please raise a sign!"

"Eighteen thousand."

"Twenty thousand."

"Twenty-five thousand, Mr. Hong offered twenty-five thousand."

"Thirty thousand, Mr. Sun offered thirty thousand..."

Although the items on the auction table are good, they are difficult for Jiang Yuan to discern.

It wasn’t until the fiftieth lot that the lot really became a little interesting.

Two hours were very long, and Jiang Yuan almost dozed off.

Finally, it was Yip's jewelry's turn to take the stage.

Chen Qiping smiled and said:

"What will be auctioned next is the latest series of jewelry designed and produced by Ye's Jewelry."

Upon hearing this, the eyes of the women in the audience lit up.

Even though Mr. Ye came to the capital not long ago, he is deeply loved by many ladies and ladies in the capital because of his fashionable and elegant design and excellent quality.

In addition, Ye's jewelry is a high-end one, so buying jewelry from Ye's family is not an easy task.

Just listen to Chen Qiping continue to introduce:

"Then, next, I will hand over the stage to Mr. Ye Zhiqiuye of Ye's Jewelry and invite Mr. Ye to come on stage."

Ye Zhiqiu nodded and walked onto the auction stage with a smile.

For a moment, all eyes were focused on Ye Zhiqiu.
