In fact, Feng Yu didn't know what kind of antique this incense burner was, but it was definitely an antique. What he most wanted to know was which dynasty it was from and how much it was worth.
After hearing Feng Yu's words, Fu Guangzheng laughed awkwardly: "Haha, Boss Feng, stop joking. Since you know everything, why do you put it in the corner?"
Feng Yu rolled his eyes: "I haven't had time to put it away yet. No, I haven't even cleaned it up. A history professor said it was worth one million, and another doctoral supervisor said it was worth two million. I don't know how much. , how much is this thing worth in your Xiangjiang?"
Fu Guangzheng's words just now were a disguised admission that the incense burner was worth at least several hundred thousand. Feng Yu just wanted to hear how much Fu Guangzheng could offer. If the price was really high, he wouldn't mind selling it now.
Collecting antiques is not his hobby. Why are antiques becoming more and more popular and prices rising all the way in later generations? It’s not because of the speculation.
Some collectors and auction houses are trying to increase the value of antiques from historical, cultural, economic and other aspects, and this is also supported by some players.
There are also people who do not collect at all, but purely for financial gain. Auctioning antiques in the name of the company and turning them into office supplies can reduce profits and reduce taxes. As for office supplies, after five years of "depreciation and amortization", the value becomes 0.
When the value becomes 0, it can be transferred from the company's books to your own pocket. In the past five years, the value of the antique has increased. Not only does it avoid a large amount of tax, it is even a stable investment. When you need money urgently, you don't necessarily need to sell antiques, you can take a bank mortgage loan.
In the future, this situation will become more and more common. Later, the country introduced policies to regulate this market, but there are also many loopholes that can be exploited.
Feng Yu didn't intend to play with antiques. He didn't understand it at all. Did he hear many examples of people being deceived in his previous life? Besides, he is guaranteed to make more money by investing than by speculating in antiques.
Fu Guangzheng put on his gloves again, and even took out a small brush and a magnifying glass from his bag. He carried all these things with him and didn't take them out just now.
After Fu Guangzheng's cleaning, the three-legged Xuande furnace regained its brilliance. Fu Guangzheng's eyes showed a look of obsession, and he kept stroking the incense burner as if he were stroking his lover's body.
"One million, one million Hong Kong dollars, can Boss Feng part with me?"
Is this thing worth a million? It’s still Hong Kong dollars, and Hong Kong dollars are worth more than RMB!
This price has exceeded Feng Yu's psychological expectations. He originally thought that he would be able to earn back the hundreds of thousands he spent on Wang Laizi, but now it seems that there is still a lot of profit.
Wang Zizi must not know that this is an antique. If he had known, he would have come to Feng Yu to ask for it. Unexpectedly, an unintentional move actually made him another fortune.
"Boss Fu, do you think I will sell it?" Feng Yu looked at Fu Guangzheng with a smile.
He would never sell this incense burner unless he spent all of it to earn two million. This time next year, he can use this incense burner to get a loan from the bank. With a little manipulation, he can get a loan of at least five million. In one year, he can turn five million into more than 20 million. If you give him one million now, he won't be able to turn it into five million in a year.
Fu Guangzheng showed a regretful look. It seemed that Feng Yu kept it for collection, so forget it. If he paid a higher price, he would have no profit.
"Boss Feng also likes to collect. I wonder if there are any other collections at home. Can you take them out to open my eyes?" Fu Guangzheng said as he took off his gloves and put them aside. He also took out a handkerchief and wiped his hands carefully.
Feng Yu waved his hand: "I just played, and I don't have much collection yet. Boss Fu seems to be a veteran, and he has collected a lot of good things, right?"
He didn't just play, he didn't play at all. However, he is somewhat curious about this industry. At least he thinks antiques are better than works of art.
Some of the people who speculate on art in later generations have been proven to inflate prices in order to make profits; the other part is to launder money. You get a worthless piece of art and put it up for auction, and then give all your money to the other party. If the other party auctions off your art at a high price, your money becomes a legitimate source. There are also some idiots who just follow the trend and buy art at high prices, but cannot sell it at all. These people are the ones who end up swallowing the bitter pill.
As soon as Feng Yu said he wanted to appreciate his collection, Fu Guangzheng's face suddenly lit up. Although he is not a collector and only resells for profit, he has made a lot of money this year.
Let's just say that this time I came to Bingcheng, I searched for a few old houses in the surrounding area, and I still got a few good things.
At the hotel, Fu Guangzheng showed Feng Yu his harvest this time. Snuff bottles, porcelain, seals, jade pendants, hairpins, ancient books.
Feng Yu looked at it for a long time and didn't think it was that good. It was pretty, but if he was asked to pay a high price for it, he would never do it.
Seeing Feng Yu's disinterested look, Fu Guangzheng said with a sour tone: "Of course these can't compare to your Xuande stove. Yours is probably the real Xuande stove. The price will definitely increase several times in two years. But that's all If I take the stuff back to Xiangjiang, I will at least double the gross profit."
“There are so many people playing antiques in Xiangjiang?”
"There aren't that many people playing in Xiangjiang, but there are a lot of people playing in Southeast Asia."
Feng Yu understood that at that time, Xiangjiang was the economic center of Southeast Asia established by the United Kingdom. Not to mention anything else, it is the overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia, among whom there are hundreds of rich people worth hundreds of millions. These people alone can hold up the price of antiques.
"Boss Feng, are you interested in working with me?" This is Fu Guangzheng's goal. He doesn't have much capital, so it will be difficult to grow bigger. Feng Yu obviously has funds and connections in the Soviet Union. If he can get some European oil paintings back, it will definitely be a huge profit.
"Sorry, I'm really not interested in this. Buying that Xuande stove is just to help a friend make money. Is Boss Fu a family member of Xiangjiang Fu?" Feng Yu suddenly asked.
"Do you know the Fu family? Boss Feng has been to Xiangjiang?" Fu Guangzheng looked at Feng Yu curiously. A person from the northernmost provincial capital of China actually knew the Fu family in Xiangjiang. How did he know
"I heard from a friend that the Fu family is a big family in Xiangjiang, and every member is an elite member of Xiangjiang's upper class. Who is your father in the Rong generation?"
Fu Guangzheng was even more surprised. He even knew the seniority of their family. So Feng Yu already knew his background.
"My father Fu Rongjin."
Feng Yu thought for a long time but had no impression. The most famous member of the Fu family was also from the Rong generation. At his peak, he was on par with Li Chaoren, but his name was not Fu Rongjin.
On the surface, Feng Yu still looked amazed, which was very helpful to Fu Guangzheng. Although he was not taken seriously by his father, his father never stopped him from using his father's name when doing business.
This time he will rely on these second-hand luxury cars to let his father take a good look at his earning power! ~~A few more people have entered the new book list. Now we are fourteen.
