Sitting on the cross-border trading group, the country is chasing after it

The boss rushed over and cried, "I can't bear to see you treat my baby like this!"

He said, patting one of the ornaments in a serious manner: "You have suffered."

Jiang Ruochu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but she was obviously used to her boss's money-grubbing and dramatic attitude.

The owner of the auction house is called Zhai Lu, who is five years older than Jiang Ruochu. Perhaps because he has never experienced any hardship, he has a somewhat eccentric personality and is not very steady.

He might pretend to be so intimidating in formal occasions, but in private, he doesn't pretend at all.

Before, Zhai Lu was a rich second-generation who had no intention of inheriting the family business, until his father remarried and brought back a younger brother who was only a few years younger than him.

This brother's features are exactly the same as his father's.

Zhai Lu understood that when his mother was alive, his father had an affair and had a child outside.

Zhai Lu may not care about other things, but he would never hand over his mother's auction company to his stepmother and her son, so Zhai Lu joined the auction company after graduating from university.

At that time, there were many of his stepmother's people in the company, and he didn't even have a trustworthy helper.

However, Zhai Lu had a keen eye and discovered the rough diamond Jiang Ruchu who had just joined the company.

Gradually, the two of them developed a special relationship as both boss and employee, and friends.

Jiang Ruochu corrected while drinking soy milk: "Okay, okay, boss, this is not your treasure. This is a treasure that needs to be sold immediately."

"Besides, you've been covering the things, how can the teacher identify them?"

Zhai Lu turned around and glared at Jiang Ruochu with resentment, then stood up and said, "Teacher, please give me an estimate."

"After estimating the price, I will take a beautiful photo of the baby." Zhai Lu brought three people.

The two are appraisal experts. They are responsible for appraising the items and estimating their prices, which are then signed jointly for confirmation.

One is a photographer, who is responsible for taking photos of the auction items and then making them into auction brochures, which are sent in advance to customers participating in the auction.

In fact, he wouldn't be in such a hurry at normal times. The main reason was that Jiang Ruochu's three pieces of jewelry came suddenly, so he had to bring them to the scene.

The identification expert adjusted his glasses, put on gloves, first observed with the naked eye, and then observed carefully with a magnifying glass.

Even though this teacher has seen so many treasures, he still can't let go of these three things.

The expert muttered to himself: "This is a really good treasure."

"Xiao Jiang, you're lucky this time." The expert turned around and looked at Jiang Ruochu, his lips already raised, "We received three treasures."

Zhai Lu immediately shouted: "Did you hear that? This is a treasure! You actually put it in my drawer!"

Jiang Ruochu defeated the magic with magic and responded easily: "I am just waiting for you to give me a raise! Then I can move to a bigger house and buy a safe."

Zhai Lu immediately changed the subject: "I suddenly realized that although your house is small, the scenery outside the balcony is nice."

The appraisal experts estimated the value of the red and blue gem ring to be 3.1 million, and the value of the tourmaline eighteen-bead bracelet to be 10 million.

This is just the starting price of the auction, not the final transaction price.

As for the price of the gold silk inlaid multi-treasure belt, the two experts debated for a long time.

Because similar items like the double gem ring and tourmaline bracelet had appeared in previous auctions, they estimated the price very quickly.

However, this gold silk belt inlaid with many gems has never appeared at an auction, so there is no reference to its price, so one must be cautious.

"Mr. Xiaolu, let's discuss the price of this item when we get back."

Zhai Lu doesn't like people calling him Mr. Zhai. Firstly, it sounds like an insult to a bastard, and secondly, it is his father's surname. Ever since he knew that his father had wronged his mother, his relationship with his father has not broken down, but there is still a gap between them.

Jiang Ruochu asked: "Mr. Zhang, judging from what you said, is this item a unique piece?"

A unique piece refers to a collection that is the only one of its kind in the world.

This was not only the first time for Jiang Ruochu, but also the first time for Zhai Lu to encounter a situation where Mr. Zhang did not dare to set the price easily.

Zhang Lao explained: "No, your uncle and I have seen a similar one in a museum abroad before."

"That belt is inlaid with agate, unlike yours, which is inlaid with multiple gems and is more precious. I need to go back and consult my teacher."

Mr. Zhang’s teacher is a master in the field of treasure appraisal and a specially invited researcher of the National Museum. He is known for his sharp eyes and golden pupils. It is definitely an honor to have his appraisal.

Jiang Ruochu nodded: "Then it all depends on you, Mr. Zhang, to make the decision."

Jiang Ruochu had previously estimated the bottom price of the gold silk inlaid multi-treasure belt to be around 20 million.

But judging from what Mr. Zhang meant, it may be far more than that.

Although Jiang Ruochu has seen many treasures, she never gets complacent and always relies on the opinions of professionals.

Zhai Lu slapped his thigh fiercely, ecstatic: "It's settled! The limelight of this auction will definitely be mine!"

Jiang Ruochu knew that Zhai Lu had always been competing with his stepmother and stepson.

Although Zhai Lu has made a lot of achievements in recent years, his stepmother and stepson are still eyeing the auction company and are reluctant to give up this piece of fat meat.

His stepbrother deliberately studied art in order to enter the auction company as a matter of course. He used a serious excuse like "I want to share the work with my brother", which disgusted Zhai Lu very much, but made Zhai Lu's father laugh. He praised his younger brother for being sensible and even gave Zhai Lu some advice, asking him to be friendly and respectful to his brothers.

Zhai Lu rolled his eyes so hard that he almost got a cramp.

At this auction, Zhai Lu’s younger brother received a pair of Zhengyang green jadeite bracelets and named them Bicui Fanghua, preparing to show them off at the auction.

Zhai Lu was so angry that he went around the world looking for Imperial Green.

But the reason why imperial green is expensive is because it is rare. It is not easy to find it. Moreover, even if it is available, others may not release it at this time.

So Zhai Lu had a headache for a while and went crazy in his own circle every day.

Now that Jiang Ruochu has brought him three items, all of them are very good, it's no wonder that he is so happy.

Jiang Ruochu was also pleasantly surprised. Since Mr. Zhang was so optimistic about the gold-thread belt inlaid with various treasures, she thought she could make a fortune.

While watching Zhai Lu and the photographer looking for the best angle and light to take pictures of the treasures in the small room, she imagined that when she had money in the future and moved to a bigger house, she would not have to work so hard to find the angle.

Buy a scenic room with multi-faceted lighting, so that there is sunshine and scenery everywhere.

Jiang Ruochu had a wonderful dream.

The next day, there was a reply from Mr. Zhang.

According to his teacher, this gold-thread belt inlaid with many treasures is priceless in terms of both artistic value and craftsmanship, so he was unwilling to set a price and let them estimate it themselves.

Mr. Zhang kept apologizing to Jiang Ruochu and Zhai Lu. He didn't expect the teacher to say that. In the end, the item still didn't get the reserve price.

Jiang Ruochu could understand the old expert very well. After all, he had such a high status that he would be ashamed if he were asked to set a price for a priceless item.

However, Zhai Lu, who was doing business, only felt regret and headache.

Jiang Ruochu: Think about it from another angle. In fact, the fact that the old expert is unwilling to offer a price shows that this thing is very valuable.

Jiang Ruochu: Boss, why don’t you just set the price boldly?

When Zhai Lu read Jiang Ruochu's message, his eyes lit up.

Zhai Lu: Yes, yes, yes! You are right. Let me think about it!

Seeing that his deception was successful, Jiang Ruchu quietly chatted with Mr. Zhang: Okay, Mr. Zhang, you don’t have to worry about it anymore. Let the boss worry about the price.

Mr. Zhang: …

Mr. Zhang looked at the boss in the group who had been sold out without realizing it, and then looked at the private message Jiang Ruchu sent him. He couldn't help but observe three seconds of silence for the boss, and deeply understood one thing: he would rather offend the boss than offend Jiang Ruchu.

Not long after Mr. Zhang asked his teacher to see the gold-thread inlaid multi-treasure belt, the National Museum, the National Museum and museums in several historical and cultural provinces contacted Jiang Ruochu.

They had only one purpose, which was to borrow the gold-thread inlaid multi-treasure belt for exhibition.
