Chapter 309 Chapter 309 Entertaining Antiques

Unless it is these peddlers, they are in the porcelain business, but they got a piece of jadeite jewelry by chance. At this time, they will be like those collectors who don’t understand their own things very well, and they will be very happy in return. High expectations!In this case, it is possible to find Jia Sidao to appraise the real value of the thing! However, since everyone is in the antique business, they should have their own network of contacts. Let’s just talk about Xiao Ma, if you want to check if your porcelain is right, you can go to Ah San, or even Wei Erye, if you encounter jade ornaments that you can’t understand, you will naturally come to Jia Sidao, it’s not right at all. There is no need to come to the appraisal meeting.

In this way, these peddlers come here for appraisal, and they have bad intentions themselves!Although there are experts here, in the eyes of the hawkers, what happened to the experts?Experts also have time to punch eyes.Otherwise, these experts would have made a fortune long ago, so how could they spend some appearance fees here?Undoubtedly, you can earn much more by scouring real things on the Antique Street than participating in the Appreciation Conference. Apart from the local insiders in Linhai, those insiders in other areas "hidden" Jia Sidao a little when they saw their colleagues, so they naturally hid away more quickly.Jia Sidao once saw that there was a middle-aged man who wanted to come to Jia Sidao's place to appraise things.As a result, soon there was Jia Sidao next to him, looking at the peddler in the antique street who was still familiar, and gave him a hand!Whispered a few words in his ear, and in an instant, when the middle-aged man who wanted to come over now looked at Jia Sidao again, he showed a little bit like seeing a poisonous snake and beast. timid!

At the beginning of Ganqing, he regarded Jia Sidao as someone who relied on his connections to gain fame on the scene of the appraisal conference. For this reason, Jia Sidao could only smile wryly, not knowing what to say. Among the only remaining second type of people, most of the collectors may not understand the experts who really understand the market and work hard in the front line of the market.However, in the jewelry and jade industry, who is more famous and who has a better reputation, they still know a little bit.And how can you not have the eyesight to see who has better professionalism?

Let's not talk about others, just say Uncle Zhou Fugui.It has been here for more than ten years on the Antique Street. As far as the jewelry and jade industry is concerned, it is not only nephrite accessories, but it is indeed one of the two largest shops in the Linhai area.At this moment, there are more people looking for him, which is understandable! As for Lao Wang and others, because they came from the provincial capital, they also made this group of Tibetan friends flock to them!On the contrary, someone like Jia Sidao, who is young and a novice who has struggled in the stone gambling party, will temporarily be unknown, which will make them look down on them a bit!

Thinking about it this way, the expression on Jia Sidao's face became even more depressed! Of course, since Jia Sidao has already sat on the expert seat, the number of collectors kept in the room is several more than the number of experts. In front of Jia Sidao, it is impossible for a former No one came to identify it.No, Jia Sidao waited until everyone had appraised one or two pieces of jewelry, and finally welcomed the first Tibetan friend who asked him for advice! At this time, Jia Sidao thanked the organizer for his thoughtfulness. Jia Sidao noticed that the old man in front of him was originally queuing up to be appraised by the old experts next to him, but maybe it was because there were two Tibetan friends in front of him, the speed of the old experts checking things was relatively fast Slowly, Jia Sidao's side happened to be empty, so he wanted to make it easier for Jia Sidao to come and take a look.

So, Jia Sidao picked up a jade bracelet of the old man in a serious manner, and examined it carefully! The color is okay, the green is not very emerald, and there are a lot of impurities in it, which looks a bit cloudy, so in terms of transparency, it is not very good.In terms of texture, it should be between ice seeds and bean seeds. Jia Sidao touched it with his hands while thinking in his heart that such a jade bracelet should be considered old. No way, even if he is a bit older than the old man in front of him. Sure enough, before Jia Sidao could speak, the old man said: "Little comrade, this bracelet was brought from my natal family when I married my wife, but it has been many years. I I showed it to several experts before, and they all said that this jade bracelet is very good and has great collection value. No, I came here this time just to ask how much this bracelet is worth."

As he spoke, he looked at Jia Sidao with an expectant gaze, waiting for Jia Sidao's answer! It is naturally impossible for Jia Sidao to directly state the market value.As the saying goes, everything has been appraised here, so it is natural to look like an appraisal expert.I can't, every time I get a piece of jadeite jewelry, I can directly sense it with my supernatural powers, and then directly tell the characteristics of the jadeite jewelry, and then the price, right? This time, the organizer, considering the participation of the TV station, asked the experts to give some comments as much as possible during the appraisal.

If not, it would be like Jia Sidao had heard from Uncle Zhou Fugui privately before that in many cases, the process of appraisal by experts was not very careful, and once they saw something that the experts themselves were not sure of, most of them would go wrong Some say, or, let’s say it’s not worth much.At that time, if there is any mistake, there is still room for salvation.For example, I didn't look carefully at that time, I punched my eyes and so on. But if it is better to say, the collectors are naturally happy.However, the experts are not sure about the authenticity of the things, so naturally there are many doubts.If it is found out later that this thing is fake, then you, an expert who says something is true, will be hated by others.

On the contrary, if you say something is wrong at the beginning and find out that something is right later on, then most collectors, even ordinary people, will not care about anything with that expert who says something is fake. In addition, when it is confirmed that something is real, most of the prices given by experts will be inflated, it is nothing more than to please!Even sometimes, in order to hype their own fame, experts can even quote tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of prices for things that they are not sure about! Jia Sidao has often seen such things on TV and newspapers.

At this moment, Jia Sidao listened to the old man's narration about the jadeite bracelet, and at the same time used a magnifying glass, a bright flashlight and other standing tools to carefully examine the jadeite bracelet.There is no error in my initial judgment.When starting to estimate the price, Jia Sidao hesitated a little, and finally decided to give it at the normal market price. However, when the old man in front of him heard Jia Sidao say that the thing was true, the smile on his face was still very obvious.However, after hearing the price Jia Sidao said, his expression was a little stunned.

Jia Sidao couldn't help but smiled wryly, and said, "Grandpa, this price is just my preliminary estimate. There should be room for appreciation in the market..." "That's it." The expression on the old man's face was considered to have returned to a normal state.Said, "Then thank you, little comrade... But, I see, I'd better ask the old experts to take a closer look. This is a jade bracelet that has been around for decades. How could it be so little money?" ?..." The meaning in the words, there is still a bit of doubt. "This jadeite is not like other antiques. The longer it is, the better it is. You see, the carving on this jadeite bracelet is not as good as the modern carving techniques. Moreover, on the head of the water, this jadeite There are still many flaws in the jade bracelet..." Jia Sidao said, seeing the doubtful look in the old man's eyes, he couldn't help dragging it to other places, trying to divert the old man's attention, saying "However, if there is some historical value on this jade bracelet, then the price of this bracelet is quite different." You know, what Jia Sidao said is the truth.Let’s just say it’s the Empress Dowager Cixi of the Qing Dynasty. Although we don’t want to talk about her personality for now, the things she used are all treasures.It's a pity that the jade bracelet in front of me is a long time ago.However, there is no special historical story, and there is no relationship with any major figure in history. However, it is obvious that the old man in front of him misunderstood what Jia Sidao meant, and said, "Little comrade, my jade bracelet was brought by my wife when she was married. High historical commemorative value, isn’t it, the price will be much higher?” As a result, Jia Sidao became speechless again.Fortunately, after a detailed explanation with the old man, the old man left with some disinterest.Perhaps, until he left, he still didn't quite understand why the same jadeite bracelet had different prices in the eyes of different experts? Xu saw someone leave after Jia Sidao's appraisal. In the following time, Jia Sidao also started to get busy.Moreover, after the initial disorder, at this moment, all Tibetan friends who entered the house have a more detailed classification of the categories of things in their hands. Because the number of Tibetan friends waiting outside was beyond the expectations of the organizers.If we follow the previous speed, not to mention this morning, even adding the afternoon and evening time, I am afraid it will not be able to meet the requirements of all Tibetan friends!So, Uncle Zhou Fugui started, everyone discussed it, and then began to redistribute the work. For example, for collectors holding jasper-like jade collections, the staff at the door of the house instructed them to wait in line at Zhou Fugui's side.As for Tibetan friends who are holding jade-like ornaments, the staff will guide them to Ji Yanran or Jia Sidao for identification depending on the situation. As a result, among the dozen or so experts, almost everyone was overwhelmed. In this regard, Zhou Fugui's face was full of smiles, which made Jia Sidao involuntarily ponder. The reason why he made such a suggestion was because Uncle Zhou Fugui saw that in the first period , Jia Sidao is very leisurely, and the rest of them are relatively busy, so why did they take actions specifically aimed at Jia Sidao? Of course, I suddenly saw Tibetan friends waiting for identification in front of me, and they lined up.In Jia Sidao's heart, he was still slightly excited.In a hurry, he began to speed up the progress, and because of the help of supernatural perception, Jia Sidao was not afraid of making mistakes in the rush, and his comments on the identified jade ornaments became more and more natural.In many cases, he still speaks clearly and logically!You say you are citing classics, but it is enough to make the Tibetan friends who come to do the appraisal have no chance to pick the bones. However, Jia Sidao has also discovered that not only other categories in the antique industry, such as porcelain, calligraphy and painting, but also behind every collection, there will be an intriguing story.Even the jade group, most of the collectors, who came to do the appraisal, would tell a short story about their own collections.Whether it is true or false, everyone still speaks in a dignified manner, so that people can listen to them, and they can't bear the slightest temper. In many cases, Jia Sidao felt that he was not doing antique appraisal work here, but more like a leisure guest in a tea room, drinking tea and listening to stories. After about an hour, the door of the house will be closed again for about ten minutes. This is the time for the experts to rest.Jia Sidao was very happy, the organizer seemed quite human.Jia Sidao went to the toilet, and after returning, he exchanged pleasantries with Uncle Zhou and Lao Wang, and shared the interesting things that happened during the appraisal just now. When seeing Ji Yanran, Jia Sidao didn't express anything special, just asked: "Miss Ji, when I went out just now, I also saw a lot of TV station personnel, cameras and so on, very busy Lehu. But, why, didn’t you see them come into our room to shoot?” If it is said that jadeite is still unpopular in the antique industry, then nephrite and the like, and even strange stones and the like.Tianhuang, Qingtian stone, chicken blood stone and the like are definitely popular.These gadgets are indispensable at every appraisal meeting. Moreover, in this room, there are appraisal experts from the Miscellaneous Group. Why haven't I seen people from the TV station, what kind of activities are they doing, and they brought people into this place to shoot? "Now?" Ji Yanran shook her hand, perhaps the series of busy identification work just now made her hands a little sore, "It's still early, it's only been an hour... Don't look at when we appraised, we have already started to get to the point. However, the number of Tibetan friends waiting in the square outside is gradually increasing. So..." "So, it's wrong for me to be so impatient, right?" Jia Sidao replied with a smile. "Puchi!" With a sound, the other party couldn't help giving Jia Sidao a look, which is your smart look. "However, Xiao Jia, the program recorded by the TV station this time is a bit ingenious. In the past, I have never tried it before." Ji Yanran pursed her lips and said, "In the past, before recording, no matter it was As for the antiques to be appraised, or the experts who come to appraise, they are notified in advance. This time, it is a bit different." "Isn't it? Could it be that they will still take pictures of my appraisal?" Jia Sidao frowned, and there was still a little excitement in his heart.Originally, Jia Sidao thought that when shooting, it was nothing more than showing a picture to all the experts, and then it was a certain expert arranged for him to appraise. Most of the scenes of the appraisal conference were filmed in this way.Even, sometimes what kind of rhetoric is prescribed.For such an arrangement, Jia Sidao had nothing to say.But if there are some novelties this time, Jia Sidao will feel a little curious! Just as she was thinking about it, Ji Yanran said playfully to Jia Sidao, "It's not certain." After seeing Jia Sidao's stunned expression, Ji Yanran explained, "You also saw a lot of people holding interview microphones in the square outside, right?" Jia Sidao naturally nodded. , Ji Yanran continued, "They are not professional hosts, but celebrities who are interested in collecting things!" "Celebrity?" Jia Sidao couldn't help blurting out. "That's right." Ji Yanran looked at Jia Sidao's expression, and said with some disapproval, "They are all from all walks of life, and they are relatively well-known people. It's like we experts are compared to the antique industry. For example, the general manager of Geely Automobile, or the special-grade teacher in Taizhou Middle School, etc. They are relatively well-known in their respective fields. Of course, there are also famous ones in several TV stations. Host! Originally, I was hosting an entertainment show, but today I’m here as a guest star, the host of the Antique Appraisal Conference!" "No wonder, it turned out to be like this." Jia Sidao nodded, smiled wryly, and said, "At first, I thought they were all celebrities. On our Linhai side, there are really no big names who can stand on the stage. Celebrity!" "Xiao Jia, this is not certain." Xu Jia Sidao's voice was a little louder, but Zhou Fugui who was beside him interrupted and said, "It depends on whether you are a big star or not." Which aspect."
