Chapter 1117

You follow Ye Junwei to the next room. The first thing you see is an old eight immortals table and four benches. They are a perfect combination.

Wen Haoyang stepped forward to look at these tables and stools, then asked strangely, "what kind of wood are these furniture made of? I don't think I've seen it before. "

Ye Junwei spread out his hand and said, "this eight immortals table and bench were all given to me by my father-in-law a few years ago. It's said that it's a kind of local furniture in Zilang of Jiangsu Province. I don't remember the name of oak or wood."

"Oak hazelnut." Chu Chen reminded.

"Yes, it's Oak hazel furniture." Ye Junwei suddenly realized that he was an expert and had a wide range of knowledge

Chuchen modest smile, Wen Haoyang asked: "teacher Chu, this oak hazel wood is what wood ah?"

Chu Chen replied, "in short, the oak hazelnut is actually the mulberry plant Zheshu."

"Zhemu?" Ye Junwei was a little surprised and said, "zhemu seems to have been found in many provinces of our country. How did it become the local furniture of Zilang in Jiangsu Province?"

Chuchen explained with a smile: "zhebou is indeed produced in many parts of our country, but not all zhebou are called oak hazelnut. Only zhebou produced in the alluvial plain of the Yangtze River is called oak hazelnut because of its superior quality due to the relationship between water and soil."

"So it is." Wen Haoyang nodded clearly: "teacher Chu, what about the texture of this kind of wood?"

Chuchen said with a smile: "this kind of wood has the reputation of" Chinese red sandalwood ". Do you think it's good? And tussah hazelnut and red sandalwood are the same, ten tussah nine empty, ten tussah nine curved, uneven trunk, many grooves, cutting materials need to repeatedly figure out how to cut materials, even if not empty raw materials, the utilization rate after making is about 25 Jin per 100 Jin. You can imagine how much wood Mr. Ye needs for this set of furniture. "

"So." Ye Junwei's expression was a little surprised. He quickly asked: "teacher Chu, since oak hazelnut can be compared with red sandalwood, its value in the market should not be low?"

Chu Chen shook his head: "on the contrary, the price of oak hazelnut furniture is not comparable to that of red sandalwood furniture."

"Why is that?" When ye Junwei heard the speech, he couldn't understand it.

Chu Chen analyzed: "it's very simple. First of all, although oak hazelnut is comparable to red sandalwood, it has not been selected into the imperial palace after all, and its status is inferior to red sandalwood. Another is popularity. How many people know about oak hazelnut? But red sandalwood, needless to say, you should also know that it is almost a household name

"Therefore, although oak hazelnut is very rare now, because many people don't know much about this precious wood, and it doesn't have a noble status, it's natural that it has such market value now."

After listening to Chu Chen's explanation, ye Junwei was very sorry, but he also reacted quickly and said: "Mr. Chu, since this kind of wood is so rare, does it have a lot of room for its value to rise?"

Chu Chen nodded: "theoretically speaking, it depends on the market's acceptance of oak hazel furniture."

After getting Chu Chen's affirmation, ye Junwei seemed very happy, but after a while, he hesitated again and said, "Mr. Chu, how much is this furniture worth? For the sake of my son's tuition, if it's appropriate, I'll have to give up. "

Chu Chen looked at Wen Haoyang and said, "just a moment, let's discuss it."

"No problem..."

Chu Chen and Wen Haoyang came to the side and asked, "Haoyang, are you interested in this set of furniture?"

"I do have some interest, but..."

Chu Chen waved his hand, interrupted him and said, "since you like it, that's OK. I'll give you a market reference price of 8000 yuan. As for the specific amount, you'd better talk about it."

"I'm sorry about that." Wen Haoyang scratched his head and laughed.

Chu Chen waved his hand: "OK, let's go. It's late. We have something else to see."

When Wen Haoyang heard the word "time", his eyes flashed a flustered look. Then he went to Ye Junwei with a smile: "Uncle Ye, we have just discussed about 6000 tables. What do you think of it?"

"Only six thousand?" Ye Junwei looked at Chu Chen in surprise and was obviously dissatisfied with the price.

Chuchen smiles. Although the market reference price is 8000 yuan, 6000 yuan is good. After all, the market for Oak hazelnut furniture is like this. If you can't sell it in an antique shop, you can only buy it for 8000 yuan if you like it.

"No, the price is too low. I might as well collect it myself and wait for the appreciation." Ye Junwei shook his head.

"Uncle Ye, don't be in a hurry to refuse. Let's discuss it again..."

I don't know whether Wen Haoyang really likes this set of furniture, or because of something. He just takes Ye Junwei to grind the hard foam and wants to take down this set of furniture, but he is not willing to pay too much for it. The highest price is 8000 yuan. Of course, ye Junwei would not agree to such a price, so the situation froze for a while."Isn't this guy trying to procrastinate?"

Seeing this, Chu Chen sneered to himself. With Wen Haoyang's expression, he couldn't help thinking otherwise. So, he gave Zuoshan a wink, let Zuoshan pass on the situation. Zuo Shan nodded slightly and went out.

"Mr. Ye, can I have a look at the things in these boxes?" Chu Chen asked.

"These are all the things I want to transfer. Just look..."

At Ye Junwei's instruction, Chu Chen opened the box and observed one by one.

In other words, ye Junwei's collection can also be regarded as a boutique, such as the melon edge lotus leaf lid jar of Longquan kiln in the Ming Dynasty, the pastel sky ball bottle of Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty, and the pen holder of bamboo carving "night tour in Chibi" of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty. A total of five eastern utensils have remarkable places, with an overall value of nearly 300000.

At such a high price, Chu Chen thought that with Wen Haoyang's performance, it would be great if he could buy one. Was all the other utensils left for him?

When Chu Chen identified everything one by one, the negotiation between Wen Haoyang and ye Junwei also ended in failure. At this time, Wen Haoyang was a little depressed, but ye Junwei's face was not very good-looking. The reason was very simple. No one was so nagging for nearly 20 minutes, and his heart would not be good.

"Miss Chu, have you seen all these things?" Wen Haoyang asked in surprise.

Before Chu Chen opened his mouth, ye Junwei said angrily, "you don't want to see how long it's been. With the eye power of teacher Chu, can you stop reading it?"

Wen Haoyang looked at the time and apologized to everyone. Then he said hello to them and picked up something to look at.

Wen Haoyang's performance makes Chu Chen more convinced that Wen Haoyang is to delay time.

Anyway, being idle is also idle. Chu Chen asked, "Mr. Ye, do you have anything else?"

Ye Junwei said with a smile, "I still have a set of Xuanxuan chess classics here. Although the book is complete, it may not be able to enter your eyes."

Chu Chen waved his hand and said with a smile, "it's not sure. Maybe it's just what I want."

"Well, I'll show you..."

Later, ye Junwei took Chu Chen to a bookcase not far away. He opened the bookcase with his key and found nearly 100 thread bound books in it.

Seeing this, Chu Chen said with a smile, "Mr. Ye, you have a lot of ancient books in your collection."

Ye Junwei replied: "most of them are ancient books and manuscripts from the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. They are all worthless things. The best is this set of Xuanxuan Qijing..."

With that, he took a few ancient books carefully to Chu Chen.

The original name of xuanxuanqijing is xuanxuanji, and the word "Xuanxuan" comes from Laozi, which means that the number of chess is "unpredictable". Because the book contains "Thirteen pieces of Qijing", it is also called "xuanqijing".

The book is divided into six volumes, each according to the ancient six arts "ritual, music, shooting, royal, book, number" into a volume. The book of rites contains theoretical articles on go, which is of great literature value. The two volumes of music and shooting are mainly based on the ancient method. The most essential part of the whole spectrum is Yu, Shu, and three volumes, which are the masterpieces of the ancient chess, such as the end of the game, the dead and alive, and so on. The 387 type is exquisite, careful, mysterious and wonderful.

After identification, this is indeed the original version of Xuanxuan Qijing. However, it is a pity for Chu Chen that the preservation of this set of ancient books is really worrying. Although the page number is complete, there are many insect bites, and there are some mildew spots. The quality is really worse than what ye Junwei said.

Seeing Chu Chen frowning, ye Junwei said with a bitter smile: "in fact, this set of" Xuanxuan chess classic "was uploaded by my ancestors. But at the beginning, I didn't know its value. It was placed at random. Later, it was accidentally drenched by my son. As a result, it became like this. When I knew its value, I would have regretted it."

At the end, ye Junwei sighed bitterly. If it was the original appearance, he believed that even if there were no 30000, 20000 would still be sold. But now, let alone 20000, 5000 would be enough.

Chu Chen shook his head and said, "Mr. Ye, I don't know how much you want for this set of ancient books."

When ye Junwei saw that Chu Chen had the idea of buying, he was very surprised: "this is..."

Chuchen said with a smile: "if you put it here, the appearance of this set of ancient books will be worse and worse, so I want to buy it back and ask the master to repeat it."

Listening to Chu Chen's words, ye Junwei quickly said, "since you have said that, Mr. Chu, I want 3000 yuan for this set of" Xuanxuan chess classic. "

"Yes..."

Chu Chen nodded, then took out 3000 yuan and handed it to Ye Junwei.

Next, seeing that Wen Haoyang was still looking at the objects in his hands, Chu Chen went on to look at the copies of ancient books in front of him.

"Well?..."
