Chapter 1694: I accept it
If it is an inkstone owned by a celebrity, it can indeed fetch a higher price at auction.
But now he is just an ordinary collector, and he does not know his specific name. It is not easy to sell it for a sky-high price.
According to his experience, being able to give five thousand is already the limit.
Although Boss Meng was reluctant in every possible way, seeing how serious they were, he estimated that the price would be this amount.
He could only nod quickly and said: "Okay, is the base price 5000?"
"The base price should start from the 60% level, which is 3000 yuan." Lin Ran said directly.
After some mental calculation, this money is simply a drop in the bucket if used to pay off debts.
Unexpectedly, my antique shop seemed to have a lot of stuff, but only a few valuable ones.
Suddenly he felt a little discouraged, but he still nodded: "Okay, how about you guys look at other things?"
"Then move out all your valuable goods." Lin Ran said.
"Okay." Boss Meng was no longer struggling. After all, he finally negotiated the cooperation.
If you can pay back some, at least you don't have to face the risk of your life.
When Boss Meng left, Lin Ran nodded to Wu Ning: "Wu Ning, the next appraisal work will be left to you. You have to check it carefully and don't make an estimate without authorization. Once you are sure it is genuine, you can accept it first and hand it over. Let the master of the auction house appraise it."
In fact, deep down, Wu Ning didn't want to cooperate with him anymore.
But Mr. Lin said so, so he could only do it.
"Don't worry, I know what's going on." Wu Ning nodded.
"Okay, then I'll leave this place to you." Lin Ran turned to Yuan Qianyun and said, "Let's go buy your grandpa a birthday gift."
Yuan Qianyun has been sitting here for a long time, but because it was Lin Ran's business, he didn't disturb him.
She smiled: "It's okay, Xiaoran, you can do your work first."
"Just leave the work to Manager Wu." Lin Ran trusted his subordinates very much. As the saying goes, don't trust the people you trust, and trust the people you employ.
This was actually the first time Wu Ning met Yuan Qianyun, and he knew what they were looking like.
He immediately patted his chest and said to Lin Ran: "Mr. Lin, leave this to me."
"Okay! Manager Wu, thank you for your hard work." Lin Ran nodded quickly, then pulled him to his ear and whispered: "You can find a way to take down the inkstone later, I plan to take it down. "
Lin Ran naturally didn't want an antique of this level to fall into the hands of others.
Auction houses actually have many methods to operate.
Wu Ning looked back at Lin Ran. In fact, he didn't understand the collection value of that inkstone.
But the boss said so, so he nodded: "I will take care of it."
The next work was left to Wu Ning, and Lin Ran and Yuan Qianyun left Meng Xingge together.
Yuan Qianyun glanced at Lin Ran with a half-smile, "Xiaoran, you look so serious about your work."
"Of course, it's work."
But in an instant, she showed an unhappy expression.
"Even when I go shopping with my girlfriend, I'm thinking about work. Why don't you go back to Shengshi Craftsmanship? I'll just take a look for myself."
"This..." In the shopping mall, Lin Ran could speak eloquently.
But facing Yuan Qianyun's little temper, he had nothing to do.
However, he could tell that Qianyun was just joking with him because Boss Meng had offended her just now. Lin Ran was still a little unhappy because he still wanted to cooperate with such a person.
Lin Ran didn't intend to hide anything from Yuan Qianyun. Seeing that there was no one around, he said, "Qianyun, actually I just want to take this opportunity to get to know Boss Meng's background and plan to take over this store."
"You want to take over Meng Xing Pavilion?" Yuan Qianyun's eyes widened.
She didn't like this store very much. The two of them went shopping happily, but they were almost kicked out by the boss.
She didn't tell her father that it would be nice to take care of the store.
Now Lin Ran actually wants to take down this store.
I felt very puzzled.
So Lin Ran told Yuan Qianyun the news he got.
"You really know how to pick up things." Yuan Qianyun expressed admiration for Lin Ran.
Others only come to Panjiayuan to see if there are any valuable antiques and earn the price difference.
Fortunately for Lin Ran, he directly found an antique store that was about to go bankrupt and planned to take it over.
She couldn't help covering her mouth and laughing.
"Isn't this also for our future?" Lin Ran cleared his throat.
After all, Yuan Jiahao said at the time that there were huge differences between the two families.
But since going to Sichuan Province and rescuing him, Yuan Jiahao has changed a lot about Lin Ran.
Now he will not stop Yuan Qianyun from seeing Lin Ran, and he also proactively told Yuan Qianyun to bring Lin Ran with him to his grandfather's birthday party.
The reputation of Shengshi Craftsmanship is growing, and with the addition of Zulong Auction House, it is now taking over antique shops.
Considering Lin Ran's age, young and promising is the most appropriate description.
Not to mention Liu Ye, even Yuan Jiahao probably wouldn't be able to achieve this level of success starting from scratch.
Lin Ran should be able to achieve a class jump by relying on his own strength, and Yuan Qianyun naturally supports him.
"Okay, let's go find a gift for your grandpa now."
In the sky, the sun had begun to set, and the afterglow connected their shadows together.
There was not much time left for them. Lin Ran did not intend to let Yuan Qianyun run a few more times. If it was just a birthday gift, Tianlexing should have many suitable products.
In Meng Xing Pavilion.
Wu Ning has already counted all the goods that can be taken over, but Boss Meng is still extremely dissatisfied with the valuation given.
"Forget it if you don't sell it." Faced with Boss Meng's request, Wu Ning showed no mercy at all.
Put down the teacup and prepare to leave.
Boss Meng quickly grabbed him: "Manager Wu, do you think the price can be a little higher?"
"What price do you want?" Wu Ning asked, but he had no intention of sitting down.
If it weren't for Lin Ran's sake, he would have walked away long ago.
"I'll discuss something with you. I'll package everything for you, for a total of 20 yuan. Do you agree?" Manager Meng said while rubbing his hands.
"20?" Wu Ning just made a rough estimate, and the total sum was up to 10, but the other party directly asked for double it.
His face suddenly dropped: "Don't even think about it!"
"Manager Wu, I really need money now, how about you lend me some first?" Boss Meng began to cry.
On the contrary, this put Wu Ning at risk.
As the owner of an antique shop, he is actually short of money.
Then, he remembered what Lin Ran said to him just now.
He instantly understood what Lin Ran meant.
Mr. Lin really has a clever plan!
It seems that he is interested in this store.
Wu Ning is a smart man, and he understood Lin Ran's intention.
Pretending to be high-minded, he said, "Actually, it's not impossible to ask me to give you 20 yuan. After all, the auction house still has some room for maneuver."
Boss Meng was about to express his gratitude when Wu Ning showed a meaningful smile.
"It's just that I have a condition."
