Chapter 69: Tiffany Antique
The second antique was soon on the table.
This is a set of five-piece carved cosmetics box, with outstanding design, exquisite workmanship, elegance and luxury!
Similar cosmetic boxes were very popular dozens of hundreds of years ago, but now almost no one uses them, only a few ladies in the upper class use them to add arty.
Of course, it is more used to pretend.
Because it lost its use value, its owner did not know which owner would sell it, and it was received by Ye Tian at a small price of $120!
Seeing this set of cosmetic boxes appear, the eyes of several antique dealers immediately brightened.
They all have channels to communicate with the upper-class ladies' circles. This kind of baby has no worries about sales at all, and it can sell at a high price!
"I hope that the price of this set of babies is lower, Steven doesn't know their true identity and value, so we can pick up a bargain!"
Several antique dealers think so.
At this moment, Ye Tian had already begun to introduce this set of antique boxes. His first words completely shattered the fantasy of several antique dealers.
"This is a set of Tiffany antique carved cosmetics boxes from 1897. There are five pieces in total. The design is elegant and generous, the patterns are beautiful and charming, well-preserved, without any defects, and the appearance is perfect.
Its design is very ingenious, each piece has a very secret mezzanine, which not only hides the secret, but also engraves the production year of the box, the designer and other information, which can be described as unique and extremely rare! "
The hearts of several antique dealers began to sink rapidly!
This kid knows too thoroughly, so what's the secret! Can the price be low? The situation is not optimistic! It is estimated that there is no advantage to take!
It seems that the temptation is not strong enough, and Ye Tian is still feeding it.
"Can I tell you one thing, the designer of the box is ‘Louis Comfort Tiffany’. I don’t need to introduce his status in the American jewelry design field, right? You should be very familiar with it.
In view of this, the starting price I set for this set of antique cosmetics box is US$8,000. If the gentleman wants to put this set of antiques in his bag, he can sell it now! "
"What? The starting price is so high? Are you kidding me?"
There was an uproar at the scene again, and several antique dealers who had met for the first time had their eyes widened, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
This is the same as the last antique, it is not cheap at all, this kid is really sure and ruthless! Is there an expert in the back? Or does he possess such a high level himself?
If it's his own level, it would be terrible. If you want to get cheap, there is no door!
Seeing the performance of several antique dealers, Ye Tian just smiled, did not pause to give any explanation, but continued to make a loud offer, waiting for someone to respond.
Although he didn't say anything, Benny couldn't help seeing the surprised expressions of his old friends. He laughed and said:
"Hahaha, Anderson, don't even think about picking up any bargains from Steven, and bid honestly! Then you can still gain something, otherwise you will leave empty-handed!
Let me tell you this, Steven’s antique knowledge is not lower than any of us, or even a lot higher than all of us. Otherwise, how could he find so many antiques?
So, I advise you to abandon all unrealistic fantasies and start bidding, otherwise the good things will be bought by Gary, and he can understand Steven’s level.”
While said, he also pointed to Gary, who had asked for the price again, and immediately got him a string of eyes.
This is obviously to blame him for explaining too early, so that he has lost a lot of good opportunities to buy fine antiques!
"What? How could it be possible? That's incredible, right?"
"How old is Steven! How amazing is it?"
"I said how the old fox like Gary has changed his style so much, it turned out to be because of this!"
Several antique dealers were shocked, and there is actually such a freak as Steven.
is so young, so strong, it is incredible!
Soon, their shock was interrupted by Ye Tian.
"OK! Gary should be 8,000 US dollars, now 8,500 US dollars, can anyone pick it up?"
"Me! 8,500 dollars!"
Anderson, who woke up in shock, yelled eagerly, for fear that the good things would fall into Gary's hands if he was too late.
"Steven, $9,000"
Before Ye Tian could speak, someone immediately raised the price.
It's time to compare wallet thickness! The auction speed is bound to accelerate!
Thinking of this, Ye Tian seemed to see the surging of US dollars, and suddenly smiled happier!
……
The auction lasted for more than two hours before it ended. All the antiques were sold, no first-class auction!
Except for the last five antiques that deliberately lowered their starting prices and made substantial profits to attract these antique dealers, the prices of the other antiques were all higher than Ye Tian’s psychological price.
The moment the last antique fell, Ye Tian figured out how much he could get.
The total hammer price of all the lots was 620,000 US dollars, which is nearly 100,000 higher than my own estimate.
Excluding the commissions to Benny and Jason, he can pocket more than $500,000, which is by far the most lucrative.
Of course, except for Ferrari models and baseball collections that have not yet started shooting.
After they have been auctioned off, the payment will be settled. It will be a month or two later! How can there be a strong sense of excitement with dollars that are put in your pocket now!
Thinking of this huge amount of green dollar bills, Ye Tian was suddenly excited. You can also buy two Rolls Royce, one dragging the other!
Like Ye Tian, Benny and Jason are also very excited.
Benny is okay, he can basically control his emotions, but Jason is completely crazy. I am afraid this kid has never owned more than 30,000 US dollars. How can he not let him go crazy?
After a brief excitement and celebration, everyone quickly adjusted their emotions and started the final step.
According to the auction records recorded by Jason, the settlement is carried out.
As the cheques entered Ye Tian's hands, the numerous antiques placed on the ground quickly changed their owners.
After receiving the last check, Ye Tian let out a sigh of relief.
This batch of antiques has been processed, it is a perfect harvest!
The delivery was completed, and several antique dealers soon left with antiques.
They still have a lot of work to do when they go back, such as restoring the original appearance of the antique, setting the selling price, etc. I believe everyone can make a lot of money from it.
When everyone left, they whispered a few words to Ye Tian. The content is nothing more than the good products on hand in the future, don't forget to inform them.
They love and hate Ye Tian now!
What I love is that Ye Tian can bring fine antiques and make a fortune; what I hate is Ye Tian's steady and ruthless quotation, which can quickly empty his pockets!
Waiting for several antique dealers to leave, Ye Tian immediately issued two checks, one for 30,000 US dollars and the other for 60,000 US dollars, and handed them to Jason and Benny respectively.
Two strings of almost crazy cheers immediately rang out in the reception room, which was almost deafening. There was no doubt that this came from Benny and Jason.
The celebration is over, the three of them tidied up and went out together to the bank not far away.
With this kind of large check, it is a bit unsafe after all, and it is troublesome to deface, especially Ye Tian, he is not one, but several. UU Reading www.uukanshu.com
Not long after entering the bank, the numbers on the cheques turned into US dollars in their respective accounts. The antique transaction came to a perfect end!
went back to the second-hand store again, rested and chatted for a while, Ye Tian checked the time and got up to leave.
"Steven, I haven't officially thanked you yet! Don't worry about going back today, I will treat you to a big meal, the location is up to you, any restaurant in the city will do!"
Benny began to speak out to stay, very enthusiastic.
"Benny, thank you for your kindness, I'm very sorry, it's really not possible today, I have made an appointment with my girlfriend to have dinner and enjoy the world of two! Now I should pick her up.
Next time, let's have a meal together again when we have the opportunity. I believe there will be many opportunities in the future. I hope you can bring more antique dealers, and everyone will make a fortune together! "
Ye Tian smiled and replied.
"In that case, forget it, you should enjoy romantic love!"
Benny can only shrug his shoulders regretfully.
Jason beside was surprised and asked in disbelief:
"Steven, you actually have a girlfriend? Could it be last night? The girlfriend is Betty, right?"
Facing a series of curious questions from Jason, Ye Tian smiled and nodded.
"Yes, my girlfriend is Betty. My buddy won last night. I will have dinner with her and enjoy the beautiful world of two people!"
After finished speaking, he left, walked briskly out of the second-hand store, and walked towards Chevrolet on the side of the road.
Looking at his leaving back, Jason suddenly uttered a heartfelt emotion.
"This is the luckiest man I have ever seen, a double harvest of money and love! How happy!"
"Who said no! It's so enviable!"
Benny is also full of emotion!
