Treasure Appraisal: I Can See the Future

Once agreed, the three of them immediately returned to the reception room. Su Qi took out two big coins and placed them on the table.

Wang Zhihe and Gu Changfeng immediately rushed over, each carefully holding one and carefully identifying it.

These two big coins are from the Qing Dynasty. One can tell the authenticity of the coins by the font and pen strokes, the rusty patina, the outline and the back, and the material by the sound. With their ashes-level identification skills, they can almost tell the authenticity by touching it twice.

After looking at the one in their hands, the two exchanged them and turned them over and over again, unable to let go.

"Big coins, really big coins, two of them came out at once. Brother Su, you are really rewarded for your kindness. This is God's reward for you."

Thinking that Su Qi just did a good deed and bought two big coins, Wang Zhihe sighed.

Su Qi smiled and was speechless for a while.

"Authentic, it's authentic!"

Master Gu Changfeng nodded with infinite regret, and glared at his useless son. If there were no crowd, he would have slapped him immediately: this evil creature spends his days in debauchery, and asking him to learn more is like asking for his life; when it comes to handling two large coins, he actually made a mistake, what a fool.

Upon hearing the appraisal result, Gu Zifang regretted it so much; looking at his father's murderous eyes, he couldn't help but shiver, and at the same time, the eyes he looked at Su Qi and Zhiqiang were even colder and more angry.

After the identification, Master Gu Changfeng said without hesitation: "Xiao Su, since I am sure that these two coins are real, I will not ask you for the identification fee. How much do you want!"

Gu Zifang also chimed in: "For a rare treasure like the coin, the identification fee starts at ten digits when I ask my dad to identify it!"

In the circle, there are also jargons for bargaining. One yuan represents one hundred, and one digit or a bucket of water represents ten thousand.

"Identification fee!"

Upon hearing this, Zhiqiang, who had a stubborn temper, could not help it and said angrily: "Can you two be more shameless? Su Qi has already seen that it is real and said that he does not need your identification, but you still want the identification fee."

Upon hearing this, the father and son's faces changed immediately.

In the past, too many people came to them for identification, so after seeing the antiques, they basically said it casually to show their status.

These two guys are too ungrateful and don't give face.

"Okay, stop talking!"

Su Qi frowned slightly and said straight to the point: "Now there are only two big coins for the treasury. Brother Wang, pick one first and then we can negotiate the price."

"Good brother!"

Secretly giving a thumbs up, Wang Zhihe smiled and stretched out his hand and said: "Excuse me, Gu Lao, I want this big coin made by Baoyuan Bureau to keep the treasury."

There are two big coins for keeping the treasury, one is the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom with the text Shengbao on the back, and the other is made by Baoyuan Bureau with the text Zhenku on the back.

The Taiping Heavenly Kingdom coin has always been controversial. Some people think it is a large-denomination currency, and some think it is a lucky coin. Although it was finally identified as a big coin for keeping the treasury, it is slightly inferior to the one made by Baoyuan Bureau with the text Zhenku on the back, both in terms of value and collection.

Gu Changfeng's face changed, frowned and looked at Su Qi, holding the treasure coin made by Baoyuan Bureau, unwilling to let go, saying: "Xiao Wang, you are still young, who will have the opportunity to encounter good collections in the future? I, an old man, have been buried in the loess for most of my life. This treasure coin is probably the last I will see. Even if it falls into my hands, how many years can I see it? Just consider me as an old man and give me this treasure coin made by Baoyuan Bureau first. When I am gone in a few years, I will let Zifang give it to you."

"Okay, since the old saying has come to this, then you can choose the treasure coin made by Baoyuan Bureau!"

Wang Zhihe sighed, although he was a little unwilling, he was very generous to give it up.

After all, he was taking advantage of his age and even said that he didn't have much time left. If he still didn't want to give it up, it would be hard to say what would happen if it got out.

Gu Changfeng nodded slightly, with a teachable expression, and waved his hand and said: "Okay, you go out first, Xiao Su and I will negotiate the price privately."

Wang Zhihe glanced at Su Qi, and Tong Qiang and Gu Zifang went out together, leaving only two people in the meeting room.

Gu Changfeng held the big money in the treasury, smiling as if chatting: "Xiao Su, you are so young, but you have such a keen eye, and your future achievements in the antique world are limitless. However, China has been around for more than 5,000 years, and there are countless rare treasures. Ancient coin knowledge is one of the categories. If you want to learn the essence of it, you still need someone to guide you..."

"Ahem, Gu Gu, are we talking too much and going off topic!"

Su Qi interrupted with a smile, as if he didn't understand, and said directly: "I have something else to do, you can give me a price, and we will make a deal immediately if it's suitable."

"This kid is short-sighted, I don't know how many people beg me to cultivate him, he actually didn't know how to appreciate it, and even complained that I was too talkative! "

Seeing that he had originally wanted to use his connections to lower the price, but seeing that Su Qi didn't buy it at all, Gu Changfeng was angry, but he said calmly: "In that case, then I'll be frank, I'll give you a hundred numbers for this Baoyuan Bureau-made treasury coin."

A hundred numbers is one million!

"One million, it's really not a small amount!"

Su Qi laughed, but his face changed and became cold: "But it depends on what you buy. If I remember correctly, three years ago, the Jingdu Guardian Auction House sold a Baoyuan Bureau-made treasury coin, and the transaction price was two hundred and fifty-three numbers. The treasury coin is in short supply, and my coin is as good as that one, so it should be worth more. "

"Uh! "

Hearing Su Qi talking confidently and accurately about the price of the big coin sold three years ago, Gu Changfeng was immediately surprised.

Having seen this kid twice in a row, from years of experience, this kid is definitely not from a wealthy family. He is probably a poor boy in the countryside. He may not even know a few rich people, let alone go to high-end auction places like China Guardian. How could he know so much?

"Ahem, Xiao Su, that's what you said, but the economic situation has been sluggish in the past two years, and the antique market has also been affected, and the market has fallen a bit."

Gu Changfeng was worried about the country and the people, and then sighed: "Although your big coin is good, even if it is sent to the auction house, it may not be sold at that price. Besides, to enter the auction house, not only do you need connections, but you also need to have a commission, and you won't have that much in your hands. But who made us hit it off at first sight, I, an old man, will take it as a loss and give it to you according to the number of 235. "

"Two hundred and fifty-three numbers, and you're still at a disadvantage!"

Su Qi raised his lips, a hint of sarcasm in his eyes, and stretched out his hand and said: "Since Master Gu feels that he is at a disadvantage, let's give up this deal. I don't want you to suffer a loss either. You return the big coin to me, and I will find another buyer."

"Uh!"

Gu Changfeng clenched the big coin in the treasury, his eyes full of displeasure, but shook his head and sighed: "Xiao Su, you see that I like this big coin, so you raise the price! Okay, okay, who makes me like it, I will accept it. I will increase the price by 47 numbers, a total of 300 numbers to buy your big coin. Are you satisfied now? "

Looking at his expression, he looked extremely sad, as if he had really suffered a great loss by spending three million to buy this coin.

Su Qi felt sick and was too lazy to bother with him or save face for this so-called master. He stood up and grabbed the coin and said lightly, "Master Gu, I didn't want to sell this coin to you, but I respect you as my senior and my heart is not good, so I listened to Brother Wang's advice and came to talk to you, but you are too insincere. Do you think I am young, come from an ordinary family, have no knowledge, know nothing, and am stupid and easy to cheat? Indeed, affected by the economic situation, the antique market has fallen a bit, but those are all low- and medium-end antiques; high-end and scarce items like the coin are still increasing at an astonishing momentum, and there is no market for them. The coin from three years ago has at least doubled or tripled now, and in special circumstances, it can be auctioned even higher. If this treasure coin of mine appeared at an auction three years ago, it would have been sold for three million. I don't need to tell you how much it can be sold for now. Since you are not sincere, let's not talk about it. Goodbye. "

After saying what he had to say, Su Qi turned around and left. He simply opened the door and left the reception room.

Gu Changfeng hurriedly chased him out. He was surprised by the young man's grasp of the antique market and his accurate valuation of high-end products. He had to believe that this kid was definitely not an amateur. He was afraid of missing out on this treasure coin and never dared to fool around and kept shouting, "Xiao Su, don't be angry, Xiao Su, wait a minute, tell me how much you want. As long as it's not too outrageous, I will never bargain! "

The two chased out like this, and the three people outside the reception room were stunned, some of them didn't understand what happened.

Su Qili ignored him and went straight to the hall, and Gu Changfeng followed him hurriedly.

Wang Zhihe hurriedly followed and asked carefully: "Gu Lao, what's going on?"

Gu Changfeng sighed and said: "Xiao Wang, why is Xiao Su so angry? I didn't offer enough at the moment, which made him angry. You go and persuade him for me. If he is willing to give me the big coin of the country, I will give him six hundred, not seven hundred."

"The big coin of the treasury is worth eight million or even more. You are only offering seven million now. No one will sell it to you."

Wang Zhihe snorted in his heart, and said with some embarrassment: "Gu Lao, it's you whoGo ahead and say it. I can't say this. Brother Su is actually very straightforward. He is definitely not someone who values ​​money very much. It all depends on how you treat him. "

Gu Changfeng was a little unhappy, but he had to walk to Su Qi's side and sighed, "Xiao Su, how about seven hundred? You should understand that even at the auction, it will probably be this number. Excluding the rake, you still can't get so much. I have done my best by offering this price."

Su Qi was choosing a jade pendant. He turned his head after hearing this and said simply, "Master Gu, we are not related. I have never seen your kindness and righteousness. I have only seen some other things. Don't bother me anymore. I am going to send this big coin to the auction to see how much it can be auctioned for. Don't bother me. I don't want to talk to you anymore. "

"You, you..."

Being rejected so decisively, Gu Changfeng choked for a while, covered his chest with one hand and gasped violently, his eyes full of anger.

No one has ever dared to humiliate him like this.

"Dad, dad, don't be angry!"

Gu Zifang hurriedly supported his father and shouted at Su Qi: "What do you want, kid? Didn't you see what my dad looks like? You still want to provoke him! Don't you want to increase the price? Eight million, eight million, bring the national money quickly. "

"Not selling!"

Su Qi refused without turning his head.

"Nine million, nine million!"

Just then, Master Gu Changfeng, who had been panting violently, spoke up, his eyebrows trembling, and said: "Xiao Su, I was wrong just now. I thought you were an outsider and wanted to pick up something from you. You are also an insider, you should know this price, I am really eating water. "
