There are four boxes in front of Huang Xuan. They are made of fine lacquered wood and reflect the dark light, giving people a heavy feeling.
Zhou Shuming grinned with bared teeth, placed his hand on the front box, and said in what he thought was the most sincere tone: "Master Huang, these are the treasures that I have found. Each one is extraordinary. Although you are urging me hard, but Even if you let the old man of the Qian family look at it, you will have to scream. "
"Let's take a look." Huang Xuan responded noncommittally. Although his face was calm, his eyes had betrayed him.
Zhou Shuming relaxed his brows proudly and opened the first box. Inside, there were three books wrapped in fine light yellow satin. The larger one on the left was inscribed with "The Lotus Sutra of Wonderful Dharma, Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva's Universal Door." , the font is light and sparse, but it is a Buddhist scripture.
Leave professional issues to be handled by professionals. Huang Xuan greeted Lorraine and pulled up the satin in the middle. In small letters as big as a fingernail, it reads: "The Holy Instructions of Emperor Mu Zongyi of the Qing Dynasty".
Huang Xuan didn't know who Mu Zongyi was, but he recognized the words "Qing Dynasty" and "Emperor". He breathed a sigh of relief and thought to himself, good guy, the Qing Dynasty has only been destroyed for a few years, and the emperor's belongings have ended up like this. In the hands of the businessman, although he was surprised, he still restrained himself from showing it, which disappointed Zhou Shuming on the side.
With a flick of his fingers, Huang Xuan lifted up the satin on the right side without stopping, completely destroying the mysterious layout carefully prepared by Zhou Shuming. This one is a copy of a play, a little thicker than the previous two. There are three characters "Yu Shuangzhen" on the upper right side of the cover.
Huang Xuan only recognized two words, and felt a little ashamed. He opened it casually and saw a seal printed on the inside page. When he read it carefully, it seemed to be his name: Cheng Yanqiu.
"Based on comparative evaluation, the average price of "The Lotus Sutra of Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva" should be between 50,000 and 50,000, and the price of "The Holy Instructions of Emperor Mu Zongyi of the Qing Dynasty" should be between 650,000 and 850,000. "Jade" The price of "Shuang Yan Opera Banknote" should be between 5 million and 6 million. "Affected by the plane passage, Lorraine can speak more sparingly, which seems to be related to his program.
Upon hearing the price of 6 million, Huang Xuan immediately perked up and looked at Zhou Shuming. Unconsciously, the latter was brewing murderous intent, and said with excitement, "These are all belonging to the inner circle." As soon as he lifted his robe and was about to start speaking, Huang Xuan immediately waved his hand to interrupt him. He already knew the price, so he didn't know the price. The seller boasts again that he believes Lorraine's accuracy is enough to put all cultural relic appraisal experts in the dust.
During this visit, a total of more than 600,000 was spent on grain purchases. Just one book could bring 10 times the profit, which made Huang Xuan very satisfied. However, pursuing profits is the true nature of a businessman. As a descendant of the Huang family, Huang Xuan's face darkened, he covered the satin on the Buddhist scripture on the left and said, "You can take this one back." He sniffed, took a sip of tea, and said slowly: "You can keep the copy on the right. , as for this one." Huang Xuan pointed to the "Sacred Instructions of Emperor Mu Zongyi of the Qing Dynasty" in the middle and said, "Put it here first and look at the rest."
Seeing Huang Xuan pick up the drama script at a glance, Zhou Shuming was filled with disdain and even included him in the ranks of playboys. This is not his fault. The times are different, and the values are also different. The Revolution of 1911 has just ended, and the Qing Dynasty is under way. It still has huge appeal among the people, and its brand value cannot be underestimated. As for opera, although people today call it the quintessence of the country, for scholars who are willing to pay, the price of such copies is not even as high as that of Huang Xuan. Zhou Shuming thought he knew Huang Xuan's aesthetic standards. He directly passed the second box, opened the one placed in the center of the table, dusted it with both hands, then lifted up the satin on it and said: " So, look at this..."
"I can just see for myself." Huang Xuan put it aside with a look of boredom, and said with a slight movement of the corner of his mouth: "Lorraine, please estimate it."
There was no need for Huang Xuan to flip it, Luo Lin directly scanned and compared it and said: ""Zhao Zhiqian's Commentary on Learning, Zhao Zhiqian's Letters to Hu Pei"; estimated value is 1.5 to 1 million. "Song Chunhua Pavilion Poster Volume 4"; estimated value is 500,000 to 4.5 million 10,000. "One Supplementary Volume of Ten Volumes of Wei Suzhou Collection compiled by Mr. Liu Chen and Weng Dian Xuxi of the Song Dynasty" written by Wei Yingwu of the Tang Dynasty; estimated at 000,000 to 500,000.
Huang Xuan twitched his nose, suppressed his joy, and said calmly to Zhou Shuming: "Look at what's down there."
""The Spring and Autumn Sutra of the Southern Song Dynasty"; estimated value is 1 million to 1.5 million; "The Biography of the Spring and Autumn Sutra of the Song Dynasty (two volumes preserved)" is estimated to be 1 million to 1.5 million; , the Song Dynasty blockbuster manuscripts are highly praised. Firstly, they were carefully proofread at that time, and there were many rare copies. Secondly, because of their numerous editions and prosperous culture, the price of Song Dynasty rare books has always been relatively high. Until the millennium, a complete page of Song Dynasty has been preserved. Rare books cost more than 10,000 yuan, and a small book can be exchanged for a house.
In the high-price market, rare books from the Song Dynasty have a unique advantage, but they do not occupy an absolute lead. Especially in the Republic of China, although there are many libraries, many of them may not be suitable for modern people's tastes. Huang Xuanpin smacked the sentences on the table , covering up his ecstasy with tea, and said: "I can see through these two boxes, but if Boss Zhou only has these few books, he can't take away all my food."
