Chapter 1042 [1042] Warring States Authentic Artifact: Jade Tall Lamp
Ye Feng was stunned for a moment. He had just returned to Yangcheng and the treasure hunt navigation was triggered?
It seems that Guangzhou is really my blessed land.
Not daring to delay, he immediately turned around at the intersection ahead.
Chen Xuan, who was leaning on the passenger seat to recover her strength, was stunned. "Aren't we going back?"
Ye Feng didn't know how to explain, so he just evaded the question by saying, "I just remembered something that I need to deal with right away."
Chen Xuan said "Oh" and didn't ask any further questions.
She was almost torn apart by this guy just now. Now she didn't even have the strength to lift a finger, and she was too lazy to care about these things.
Following the system navigation, after driving for about ten minutes, Ye Feng soon arrived in front of a high-end shopping mall called "Tianjie".
With the level of a shopping mall like this, most of the people who can enter to shop are high-income people with considerable wealth, and they will pay some attention to their status.
But at this time, a large group of people gathered at the entrance of the shopping mall, watching something exciting.
Ye Feng pulled Chen Xuan into the crowd and finally saw the scene inside clearly.
At this time, there was a table in the middle of the crowd, with only one thing on it.
It was a piece of jade, with a light yellow tint all over, made from three pieces of jade that were rolled, carved and glued together.
It is about twelve or thirteen centimeters high, and the upper part is shaped like a five-petal flower. The overall shape is very beautiful.
He started a deep scan and detected it. "The green jade high-foot lamp is identified as a genuine jade artifact from the Warring States Period. It is 12.8 cm high and 0.2 cm in diameter... The system estimates the value at 5.7 million!"
After seeing this information, he took a deep breath.
It turned out to be a genuine Warring States artifact worth 5.7 million?
This can truly be considered a national treasure.
He calmly withdrew his gaze and looked at the man sitting in front of the stall. He was probably in his fifties, with messy hair and a weathered face.
But the elegant temperament revealed in his every move showed that he was a person who had held a high position for a long time and it was definitely not something he pretended to have.
"Hello everyone, my name is Jia Daizhen, and I'm the chairman of Leshan Group."
"The company is facing bankruptcy due to poor management, and I am also in debt."
"Although I can file for bankruptcy, so I don't have to bear many debts..."
At this point, his voice suddenly became a little excited. "But I think as a human being, I must be honest. I cannot let down the creditors and employees who have placed their trust in me. Even if I lose everything, I must pay back the creditors and pay the wages I owe to my employees."
"it is good!"
After he finished speaking, there was warm applause. These days, many companies go bankrupt and their bosses simply pack up and run away.
A boss like this who has such a conscience is still thinking about selling his property to pay off his debts. This is simply the conscience of a capitalist.
Jia Daizhen bowed to everyone and said, "I am not here to beg from you today. I took out my family's ancestral jade tall lamp, which is a masterpiece from the Warring States Period and is priceless. Although I am extremely reluctant to part with it, I still decided to sell it to pay off my debts."
As he explained, everyone's eyes turned to the jade lamp. It must be said that this piece of jade was indeed exquisite.
"Then how much does Boss Jia want to sell it for? A treasure like this shouldn't be cheap, right?"
Someone in the crowd immediately asked the price.
Jia Daizhen sighed first, and explained to everyone, "I have consulted many authoritative experts in the antique industry, including famous antique merchants such as Maple Leaf Pavilion and Guyuanxuan in Yangcheng, and they all gave their appraisal reports."
As he spoke, he opened a box next to him and took out a stack of appraisal reports.
Although Ye Feng was a little far away, he had amazing eyesight and indeed saw the appraisal report issued by their Maple Leaf Pavilion among them.
But that’s not a big deal. After his in-depth scanning and identification, this green jade tall lamp is indeed authentic.
Jia Daizhen handed the appraisals to everyone to check, and then continued, "The general estimate they gave is over 600 million."
"hiss……"
Hearing his offer, everyone present gasped.
Although people who can enter and exit Tianjie Shopping Mall are considered wealthy, 600 million yuan is still an astronomical figure for them.
There were many people who were originally interested in this jade artifact, but they all backed off.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Jia Daizhen immediately smiled bitterly, "Of course I also know that selling it for 600 million is not realistic."
"From my personal perspective, this is our family heirloom, and I won't sell it no matter how much money you offer. But now that we are in urgent need of cash flow, I can consider lowering the price a bit..."
"Then tell me a specific number. If you can lower the price a little, we can consider it."
Someone in the crowd immediately proposed it, and others followed suit.
Jia Daizhen frowned and thought for a moment, "My psychological bottom price is 400 million, it can't be lower than this."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a buzz of discussion at the scene.
A jade artifact worth 600 million yuan was only sold for 400 million yuan?
It seems that Boss Jia has really been forced into a desperate situation, otherwise he would not have made such a big sacrifice.
