"Master Gu, your batch of gold coins is not bad in terms of quality and safekeeping. How about this? I have two solutions. How about you leave this item to me and I will sell it for you? How much did you get? I won't take a single cent from you. I will treat it as making friends with you. After all, it was introduced to me by Master Gu San. We are all friends. However, it will take a long time. How about you sell it to me directly? I will go out slowly then.”
Inside the VIP box of this antique shop called Yuan Bao Zhai, the owner, Zhao Dabao, smiled and checked Gu Yu's gold coins.
Zhao Dabao's real name was Zhao Wenguang. Because his eyes were very sharp and he had almost never looked at anything, he was also called Dabao in the industry. He looked to be in his forties and had a slightly wretched appearance, especially his big teeth, which were very eye-catching.
However, this person was still very organized. When Gu Yu arrived, he was already waiting at the door. Whether it was his attitude, words, or actions, they could be said to be flawless.
Gu Yu was indeed impressed. A person like him was a talent no matter what industry he was in. He would be able to do well anywhere. However, his other talent was appraisal. Therefore, it was understandable for him to become an antique dealer.
"Name a price. If it's suitable, I'll sell it to you.”Looking at Zhao Dabao, Gu Yu smiled and said. Hearing Gu Yu's words, the other party nodded and took out a gold coin from the box.
"This five-pound gold coin, issued in 1887, has a lot of existence in the world now. Because not only was it issued by the English court, but the British India Company was also issuing it, so its historical value is not particularly high. However, it is still gold. One piece is 39.89 grams, and according to the gold price, it is worth 12,000 to 13,000. How about this, I will accept these gold coins at a price of 16,500 per piece. To be honest, if I ship these gold coins to Europe, one piece can be sold for about 2,300 to 500 euros.”Hearing Gu Yu talk about the bidding matter, Zhao Wenguang on this side also started talking.
If it was 2,500 Euros, according to the current exchange rate, one Euros was equivalent to 7.5 RMB, which was more than 18,000 Euros. However, this included the shipping fee, the money he had transferred, and the money he had spent on his hard work. The price of 16,500 Euros was not low.
"Alright, I'll sell these 7,500 to you.”Gu Yu agreed with this price and smiled.
Hearing Gu Yu's words, Zhao Wenguang was also very happy. He immediately began to count. 7,500 gold coins. Counting was still very fast. After confirming the number of gold coins, he also directly transferred the money to Gu Yu through the online bank.
16,500 for one, 7,500 for a total of 123,750,000. In less than three minutes, Gu Yu received the letter. Looking at his savings, which had already exceeded nine digits, Gu Yu could not help but feel a little dazed. In the past, he had always heard that a man would not be rich without a windfall, and a horse would not be fat without a night of grass. Now, it seemed that he was getting fatter and fatter.
"By the way, Boss Zhao, do you accept Ming Qing Flowers?”After this deal was finalized, Gu Yu suddenly thought of the Ming Qinghua that was still lying in his secret water chamber. This thing was useless in his hands. It would be best if he could sell it.
"Ming Qinghua? How old? What year is it?" Upon hearing Gu Yu's words, Zhao Wenguang's eyes instantly flashed. One had to know that the maneuverability of porcelain was much greater than gold coins.
These gold coins were actually just hard-earned money for him to make a friend. However, he had never thought that this friend would give him a chance to make money so soon.
"An official kiln from the Yongle period of the Ming Dynasty.”Seeing that Zhao Wenguang was indeed interested in this Bright Blue Flower, Gu Yu also looked at him and said.
Hearing Gu Yu's words, this Zhao Wenguang's eyes were also emitting light.
"An official kiln from the Yongle year. Green vines and peonies mean that this should not be specially supplied to the palace. It is very likely to be the goods of Zheng Sanbao when he went to the West. This thing is very valuable. If it is really as big as you say and the condition is good, it can be sold for 27 to 8 million.”Hearing Gu Yu's words, Zhao Wenguang also spoke up in a low voice.
"Then do you accept it here?" Hearing Zhao Wenguang's words, Gu Yu also asked with a smile. If he could sell this thing as well, then his total assets would exceed 170 million. Anyway, he did not have any interest in antiques. It was naturally great to be able to sell it.
"Brother, to be honest, I could sell this bottle for 30 million gold coins. I might not even make as much as this bottle with all your gold coins. However, now that you're introduced by Master Kong and we're good friends, I will introduce a buyer for you. If you have any good items in the future, just remember me.”Hesitating for a moment, to be honest, Zhao Wenguang really wanted to agree immediately now because he knew that someone would spend 30 million to buy this thing. If he could take it from Gu Yu for 27 million, he could earn 3 million by reselling it. Why not?
But Zhao Wenguang was after all a shrewd person. He had actually already discovered something through some clues. Gu Yu's chest of gold coins was sealed extremely well. But if it was in the air, after more than a hundred years of gold coins, it was inevitable that they would be oxided. Color loss and blackening were unavoidable. Therefore, if one wanted to preserve these gold coins well, there was only one way, which was to sink them into the sea.
Zheng He's Ming Blue Flower was also from the sunken ship. Through these two items, he could roughly conclude that Gu Yu was from a sunken ship salvage team. In fact, that salvage team was his subordinates. Although money was easy to earn, connections were equally important.
Only by letting go of the small fish and prawns in front of him could he eat their parents.
Therefore, Zhao Wenguang's eyes turned. He decided not to earn this three million middleman's money. Spending this bit of money to befriend Gu Yu, Gu Yu would definitely bring him more wealth in the future.
What Zhao Wenguang meant, Gu Yu understood very well, but he had to admit that Zhao Wenguang's means really made him admire him very much. If it was him, he might really be reluctant to part with this three million easily obtainable money, but at the same time, this friendship, he also remembered it in his heart.
He felt that there were definitely still quite a few treasures under that well. If he caught any more treasures in the future, then Zhao Wenguang's place was indeed a good channel to sell goods.
"Thank you, Brother Zhao. I'll go back and get it now.”
"Alright, I'll contact the seller immediately.”Hearing Gu Yu's words, Zhao Wenguang laughed. He knew that he had connected this line. This was the most important thing.
