Even though he had searched for information on the internet, compared it with the pictures, and compared it with the pieces of rotten wood, Chen Chu was already certain that these porcelain pieces were authentic.
However, when he heard the antique shop owner's affirmation, Chen Chu still smiled and raised his eyebrows.
"But what?"
Boss Gao looked at Chen Chu and muttered,""This porcelain was called the Thousand Flower Green Cloud in the Song Dynasty. It was made up of thirteen pieces and could be said to be priceless.”
"However, if there is only one piece, the value of the collection will be much lower than that of a single porcelain vase or celadon plate.”
"It's actually a set." Immediately, Chen Chu's face revealed a pained expression.
"What? Did little brother find other porcelain at that time?”
Chen Chu nodded." That's right. When I picked up this porcelain plate, I found many other porcelain fragments around it. Unfortunately, only this one was intact."”
"…That's still a pity." Boss Gao paused.
"Yeah, it's a pity." Chen Chu nodded.”
Thinking about how the giant lizard's tail had smashed a set of 13 priceless porcelain plates, Chen Chu felt that it was a pity.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. Boss Gao, what price can you give for this porcelain plate?”Chen Chu changed the topic.
"The price…"
Boss Gao glanced at Chen Chu's clothes and the pak philippe on his wrist. He muttered,""In our line of work, we naturally want to buy low and buy high.”
"However, this shop has always been operating with integrity. We have been operating here for ten years.”
"This kind of Song Dynasty blue and white porcelain, especially the official kiln, is very valuable. Eleven pieces appeared in the auction two years ago, and the lowest price was 1.8 million.”
"And the highest three pieces were auctioned for a sky-high price of 120 million.”
"Little brother, although this isn't a set, it's still from the official kiln and is a high-quality floral plate. There was a similar one that was auctioned off for a high price of 6.75 million.”
"But this is the auction price. If we sell it directly, the highest I can offer is 4.5 million.”
"It depends on whether you want to sell it directly or find an auction house to auction it.”
"If it's put up for auction, the autumn auction in XG City has just passed. It might take two months until the winter auction in November.”
"4.5 million." Chen Chu muttered to himself.
Boss Gao was very confident." Little brother, I dare say that 4.5 million is the highest price on this street. If you don't believe me, you can go to other shops and ask."”
Chen Chu smiled." Boss Gao, you're so sincere. Of course I believe you. But I'll have to go back and discuss the price with my family."”
"If it's confirmed to be sold, I'll come back tomorrow.”
Antiques were not like bluefin tuna. How could Chen Chu believe whatever others said?
Moreover, Lin Xiu had Li Tianrui's help, which was why the other party gave a sincere price. Otherwise, he would still find all kinds of reasons to lower the price.
"No problem." Boss Gao laughed.
As Chen Chu and Boss Gao conversed, Su Lengyue who was beside them remained silent.
It wasn't until the two of them walked out of the antique shop and drove around before arriving at the entrance of another shop that Su Lengyue asked curiously,"Boss, didn't you say you were going back to discuss it with your family?”
"My parents aren't in N City.”
Chen Chu shook his head." Antiques are a test of one's judgment. Of course, you have to ask a few more shops. It's impossible for them to just say how much they are worth."”
After saying that, Chen Chu looked at her strangely.
"B-Boss, are there many people here?" Being stared at by Chen Chu, Su Lengyue couldn't help but blush as she subconsciously took a step back.
Chen Chu's mouth twitched and he said in a bad mood,""What are you thinking? I'm just wondering why you don't understand the principle of comparing goods.”
"..." Su Lengyue.
There were many people here, which meant that it was okay when there were few people. When he turned around and walked into the shop, the corners of Chen Chu's mouth curled up slightly. It seemed that this little secretary could not escape from his grasp.
Next, Chen Chu went to a few antique shops. Two of them tried to trick him by saying that the porcelain was an imitation, but it was very good and they were willing to buy it for 30,000 yuan.
Chen Chu immediately told her to get lost.
The remaining shop, although it was said to be authentic, picked out some parts that had been soaked in the sea for too long and had some flaws in the oil paint. They reluctantly offered a price of 1.3 million.
Chen Chu chuckled and left after putting the porcelain plate away.
"Boss, it seems like Old Gao is very honest.”Su Lengyue sighed.
"Honesty!" Chen Chu narrowed his eyes and a hint of playfulness flashed across his eyes.
Although this boss with the surname Gao was very sincere, Chen Chu could feel different emotions from him. Greed, excitement, and excitement.
This was very contrary to his sincerity on the surface. It was obvious that he was up to something.
However, would I be afraid of the schemes of an ordinary person?
At the thought of this, a cold smile flashed across Chen Chu's eyes. Then, he drove back to Anran Restaurant. After entering, he smiled and said,"Boss Gao, I've called and asked.”
"Haha…don't worry, little brother. I won't cheat you with my price.”Boss Gao smiled when he heard that, as if he believed Chen Chu's words.
Since they had agreed to sell, both parties would naturally pay and deliver the goods.
However, during the transaction, Boss Gao took out a form and told Chen Chu to fill it out. He said that in the future, when the antiques were auctioned off, they needed to be appraised to clear the source.
Seeing this, Chen Chu smiled and filled in his phone number, address, and 30 simple descriptions of the porcelain he obtained from the beach.
However, when he filled in the address, Chen Chu wrote the place where he rented the house, not the warehouse dock.
Su Lengyue, who was standing at the side, didn't notice this. She only knew that her boss had earned another four million. Other than being amazed by his money-making ability, she didn't know what else to say.
From the time he met Chen Chu at the talent market until now, in less than a month, Chen Chu had earned nearly 20 million.
This speed of earning money was simply frightening.
While the beautiful secretary was in a state of excitement, Chen Chu and Boss Gao chatted over tea for a while until he received a message on his phone that he had transferred 4.5 million yuan to his account.
Naturally, this was just a normal transfer without an receipt, so there was no need to pay extra.
Since Chen Chu didn't mention this, Boss Gao naturally wouldn't take the initiative either. Both sides saved a lot of money.
"Boss Gao, it's a pleasure working with you." Chen Chu stood up.
" Haha…Happy cooperation."
"In the future, if little brother has any more gains, remember to take care of your brother's business.”
"No problem."
Both parties shook hands. Chen Chu carried his empty backpack and left with Su Lengyue.
Sitting in the car, Chen Chu looked at the beautiful secretary beside him and was in a good mood.""Tell me, what do you want to eat?”
…………
Just as Chen Chu brought Su Lengyue to eat, Boss Gao, who had purchased the porcelain, had already brought the goods and drove to a high-end villa.
Under the watchful eyes of two bodyguards in black suits, the black Audi stopped below the villa. Boss Gao got out of the car excitedly and walked in with the porcelain.
Along the way, they met a few bodyguards.
However, Boss Gao seemed to be a regular here. These people didn't ask him anything after seeing him. They went straight to the study on the second floor of the luxurious villa. There were two bodyguards guarding the door.
In the study room, behind a four-meter-long solid wood desk that was completely cut out of Phoebe zhennan wood and had a dragon carved on the right, a middle-aged man with a gentle expression but an invisible and imposing aura sat.
Looking at Boss Gao, who was walking in anxiously, Du Hong's eyes were sharp. He said unhurriedly,"Old Gao, you said on the phone just now that you found clues about the sunken ship?”
Facing Du Hong, who was emitting an oppressive aura, Boss Gao, who was chatting happily with Chen Chu in front of him, was a little respectful. He said respectfully,"Yes, Boss."
Looking at Boss Gao, Du Hong slowly said,"It has been five years since you got that old sailing map. The manpower and resources spent on the search at sea over the years have cost at least 40 million.”
"If you hadn't followed me for so many years, I would have thrown you into the sea to feed the fish.”
"Now, you're telling me that you found a clue?”
Boss Gao was very excited.”
"Forget about 4,500 yuan, as long as we find that sunken ship, the 3,000 pieces of expensive official porcelain on it will be worth at least 2 billion yuan.”
Looking at the confident Boss Gao, Du Hong took a deep look at him and nodded slightly."Tell me, what clues?"
"Here."
Old Gao came to the golden dragon table and carefully took out the porcelain that Chen Chu had sold him. Then, he turned it over and pointed at the mark beside the official seal.
"Boss, I received this from a young man today. There's a faint smell of seawater on it. It's obvious that it was just fished out of the water not long ago.”
"And the most important thing is this footprint.”
"The Mala Island in Philip, which is the small country of Harla, used a large amount of gold, silver, and jewelry to order porcelain from the government when they paid tribute to the Song Dynasty.”
"In order to distinguish between ordinary official kilns and custom-made products, I specially requested to add this footprint on the side of the official seal to distinguish them.”
"However, when Envoy Harla returned with that batch of precious porcelain and a large number of other goods, he encountered a storm at sea and eventually sank in the Batang Strait.”
"These secrets are recorded in the family records of my hometown. My ancestors were once a branch of the Gao family who held the position of the Board of Rites for many years.”
"There are many records of the Song Dynasty in my family's genealogy, but most of them cannot be verified.”
"If it wasn't for the fact that my old home was being repaired that year, I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't found that sheepskin sailing map in a broken cabinet.”
"Now, with the footprints on this porcelain, I can already confirm that the ship really exists. Moreover, it has already been found and salvaged.”
"However, this fleet is definitely not good at antiques, so they took out a piece of porcelain to scout the way.”
Du Hong picked up the porcelain and looked at the sunlight outside the window. He narrowed his eyes and looked at the official seal at the bottom, as well as a small mark that looked like a beast's claw pattern.
Looking at the silent Du Hong, Old Gao took out the report that Chen Chu had filled out."Boss, this is the young man's information.”
"As long as we monitor him, we can find the salvage team behind him and know where they found the sunken ship.”
This was why he wanted Chen Chu to leave his personal information.
"Two billion…"
"Good, well done, Old Gao."
Du Hong laughed. His tiger eyes revealed a terrifying light as he said in a deep voice,"Men."
"Boss." A bodyguard walked in from outside.
Du Hong pointed at the form on the table and said in a deep voice,"Give this to Fox. I want to know all the information about this person within half an hour.”
"Yes, boss."
Du Hong, who had cleared his name in N City but was once a big shot in the underworld, had amazing power.
After a while, Chen Chu's information was placed on the table.
Knock, knock!
Du Hong knocked on the table and read the information about Chen Chu in one hand. He pondered for a moment.
This information was very detailed. It included Chen Chu's grade, which department he was studying at Ning University, and the sudden opening of a fishing company this month.
Other than that, there was also Chen Chu's purchase of a Land Rover that cost more than two million yuan, as well as a record of working with Li Tianrui, the deputy general manager of Tianhong Group.
"An ordinary college student suddenly took out three million yuan to buy a luxury car and open a sea fishing company, but he doesn't have a freighter under him.”
"He even went to the outer seas with Li Tianrui. Interesting.”
Old Gao narrowed his eyes." Boss, this person must be a white hand of some hidden fleet. Whether it's the Li family's contact or the salvage of the porcelain, it's obviously the fleet behind him."”
"Boss, we want to get in touch with the fleet behind him.”Old Gao was a little afraid.
"Cooperate." Du Hong's eyes were a little playful.
…………
In the afternoon, in the company, the beautiful receptionist Ning Naixin, who had nothing to do, went to chat with Ye Xiaohui for a while before coming to the secretary's desk at the office door.
Staring at the accounting report in Su Lengyue's hands, Ning Naixin curiously asked,"Sister Lengyue, aren't you an electronics major? Why are you reading accounting books?"
Su Lengyue flipped a strand of hair behind her ear and explained,"The boss told me to work part-time in finance, but I haven't studied accounting before, so I can only buy one and read it.”
"I've already signed up for a fast learning class online. I'm going to study every day after work.”
After speaking, Su Lengyue lowered her head and continued reading.
Today, she had followed Chen Chu and watched as he earned another four million in an instant. Su Lengyue felt immense pressure.
She felt that if she didn't work harder, she might not be able to catch up with her boss's pace for a long time. She would be left far behind, and in the end, she wouldn't even be qualified to be a secretary.
Therefore, in addition to accounting, she also planned to learn about finance to enrich herself.
Sitting beside Su Lengyue, Ning Naixin rubbed her chin and pouted,"Sister Lengyue, you're working so hard, it makes me feel like I'm just waiting for death.”
At this moment, the office door opened. Hearing her words, Chen Chu smiled and said,""It's okay. I can afford to feed you even if you're just wasting your time. You just have to be a beautiful vase.”
Ning Naixin looked up and blinked her big eyes."Boss, it's a deal."
"Yes, it's a deal." Chen Chu nodded casually.
Looking at the three beauties, Chen Chu chuckled and said,""I picked up a plate at the beach yesterday. I didn't expect it to be an antique. It sold for more than four million.”
"I'll treat you tonight. Tell me, what do you want to eat?”
"What? Boss, you picked up a plate and sold it for more than four million!”Ning Naixin's eyes widened in disbelief.
Even Ye Xiaohui, who was far away, was shocked. She subconsciously said,""Boss, where did you pick it up? Can we go and pick it up too?”
The employees in the distance were also a little surprised.
Su Lengyue was a little speechless." Don't listen to the boss 'nonsense. What plate? That's Song Dynasty porcelain.”
"In ancient times, these porcelain were used as plates. There's no difference," Chen Chu said with a smile.”
"As for the location, it's by the sea around the dock warehouse. If you want to try your luck, you can go there anytime.”
It would be a miracle if he could find antiques there. Chen Chu laughed in his heart.
