Chapter 232 The best agarwood
Chapter 232 The Best Agarwood
Of course, Zhang Can didn't feel surprised at all, because he had known what it was!
Last time when he was looking at the old man in the french market, he took a few pieces of treasured wood, one of which was agarwood. However, his agarwood was not of excellent quality, and it was only considered a level of secondary level. Of course, it is rare to see now, these things are getting fewer and fewer, and the resources are getting exhausted.
Now when he saw through Li Daxin's box, he already knew that these agarwood were the best among the best, the best among the best. If you can get a piece of it, it is also a rare treasure. How could he have found that there were more than a dozen pieces hidden in the dark sky in such a wooden box!
The value of this piece can exceed tens of millions, and how much is it worth more than a dozen pieces?
If agarwood is made into hand beads, such a pair of special-level hand beads will have a value of more than tens of millions, because the fragrance of agarwood is beneficial to the human body, refreshes the mind, opens up the orifices and increases concentration. Moreover, this fragrance is innate and collects the yin and yang and five elements of heaven and earth. It is said to be the only fragrance product that can penetrate the three realms. Its fragrance cannot be artificially synthesized. In the fragrance world, it is called diamonds in plant fragrance. Such hand beads have always been something that wealthy families pursue. As long as there is, they will never worry about sales, but they have always been a situation where there is priceless.
Zhang Can didn't expect that there were so many hidden in the dark air in this box. If these agarwood chips were made into hand beads, they could at least make about ten pairs, which was several times more valuable than the raw materials of these agarwood!
So the four masters all felt that Zhang Can made a fortune this time!
Huang Mo looked at Zhang Can's calm expression and felt a little moved. Zhang Can was young. If he suddenly made such a big fortune, how could he not be excited at all?
Otherwise, Zhang Can would have known that such a thing was hidden in it. Maybe he really had such a profound identification and strong eyesight. It was indeed not too exciting to make a fortune. He just couldn't figure out how could such a young boy have such strong eyesight?
Huang Mo looked at his three companions, Zhong Yishan, Lan Zhiqi, and Xu Qianfan. All three were immersed in the tasting of these top agarwoods and were happy to see Shu.
Anyone like them will only ignore everything else when they see rare treasures. However, the reason why babies can be called treasures is because they are rare, or they are not easy to see at all, and they are extremely precious. Only then can they be called treasures. It is worth it to be able to see a real treasure in a person's life.
The four masters have been appraising treasures throughout their lives, but after learning, there are very few things that can be called treasures. Today's top agarwood is considered treasures.
But what really made them feel the treasure was a human. The four of them were stunned for a long time, and then suddenly they all raised their heads and stared at Zhang Can. The young man in front of them might be the rare treasure they met!
Huang Mo sighed, stunned for so long, then he said: "Xiao Zhang, the four old guys are all too stupid. The third young master also said that we should accept disciples. This, hehe, I think it's almost the same for you to accept disciples. You really live and learn until you are old. I didn't expect that we can meet such a strange person as you at this age!"
Zhang Can is not a thick-faced person. Huang Mo said this, and he couldn't help but blush and said quickly: "Old Huang, don't say that. I'm just lucky. Maybe you and the three masters didn't pay attention and just made me pick up a coincidence. If you want to say this, I'm really shameless!"
Zhong Yishan also put agarwood on the coffee table and said, "Xiao Zhang, don't say that. A person's achievements are regardless of age. Those who are capable live in it. In the antique industry, there is actually a wrong view. Everyone thinks that the older they are, they can learn more experience and achieve the best eyesight. And it depends on whether they have talent. Even if people without talent study hard and practice hard, it will be useless."
Zhong Yishan also said: "Yes, there are difficulties in any industry. For example, in our industry, talented people are not even one in a thousand. Today, I think everyone understands what happened today. Xiao Zhang first showed amazing eyesight and ability on the bloodstone, and then identified the night pearl. In fact, with these two items, the four old guys had already lost. It was just that Xiao Zhang who showed mercy for us. However, the four old guys lived to this age and had such a status, so they naturally didn't want to give up this hard-earned status and fame. Under this idea, they became prejudiced against Xiao Zhang and believed that Xiao Zhang was just seen by luck. But now, I can clearly say that Xiao Zhang has a truly amazing eyesight. I have never seen a strange person with such ability at Xiao Zhang's age!"
Zhong Yishan also said a "strange man" in his words, which shows that his view of Zhang Can has been greatly improved!
At this moment, Zhang Can also have a new view of the four masters Zhong Yishan. People who usually have extraordinary status and fame are usually difficult to admit defeat and be soft. It seems that although these four masters have a transcendent identity, their nature still makes him appreciate it.
Huang Mo sighed a few times and suddenly asked again: "Xiao Zhang, I just don't understand, why did you recognize the agarwood hidden in this wooden box? The appearance of this box is flawless from any level. In my early years, I learned ancient mechanisms from an alien. If there is a mechanism, I would have recognized it long ago!"
Zhang Can smiled and said, "This is just luck. Of course, there is also some careful observation. After Boss Li put out the box, I felt at first that the thickness of the wooden board of this rosewood box was a bit special. It is enough to make such a box with about two cents of thickness, but each wall of the wooden board of this box is one inch thick. Using this thickness to make this box is obviously a waste, or it has a deep meaning, the second..."
Zhang Can laughed and said, "Secondly, I thought something was abnormal. Later, I tried the weight again. This box is made of rosewood, which is a mixed wood, and is known for its solidity and thickness. If we estimate the thickness of the wooden board, the weight of this box should be more than this weight, so I think there must be a hole inside. Moreover, this is an antique that has been buried underground for more than a hundred years. I believe that the ancients probably had more important treasures hidden in it!"
After hearing Zhang Can explain it one by one, the four masters felt that it was very ordinary. Indeed, as long as they were a little careful, this would be possible, but it would be easy to say, but it would be difficult when it really wanted to do it.
After the truth was revealed, he felt that this was actually very simple. Why didn’t he guessed it?
The most important thing in the antique industry is eye ability, and playing is heartbeat!
Wang Qian and Su Xue smiled at this time, especially Su Xue. Her beloved showed her face like this in front of the four masters. How could she not be happy?
Looking at the piles of black agarwood on the coffee table, Wang Qian couldn't help but feel funny. Zhang Can originally threw a million for him, but who knew that he had made a bunch of valuable things to do, but he was very clear about the value of these agarwood.
But Wang Qian also heard the four masters just say "making a fortune". It is not an ordinary amount to make these four great appraisers say that they can make a fortune. If it is only 30 or 20 million, they cannot be allowed to say such words. So Wang Qian was also estimating in his heart how much these agarwood could be worth.
The four masters of Huang Mo shook their heads. Zhang Can was very humble and said it was luck, without any tax or arrogance. To be honest, if any other young man was replaced by a young man, he would actually be old and experienced. He could do the three things Zhang Can did today, and could he not be arrogant after earning more than a dozen pieces of top-quality agarwood?
But Zhang Can did not have the slightest aura of domineering people. Huang Mo and others could definitely feel that Zhang Can was definitely not pretending, but he was really like a god who was not as good as a god or a monk who was not covered in dust.
"Xiao Zhang, let's do it. Take time and we will get you a hiring certificate. Please be the honorary professor of our Beijing Antique Research Association. The monthly salary is not high, only 10,000 yuan, which means it. But if there is any activity, like today's appraisal activity, once you appear, you will be paid 200,000 yuan. This salary is the highest, just like us, how about it?"
Among the four people, Zhong Yishan has a stronger business flavor, so his mind is more thoughtful than the other three. Although Zhang Can is younger, his eyesight and identification skills are only above them, but he doesn't know much about him. However, he is Wang Qian's niece and son-in-law, so there is no need to doubt that Wang Qian is definitely trusting.
When Wang Qian heard this, he was also happy. Zhong Yishan's words were much more satisfied than what he thought when he brought Zhang Can. Before he came, he just thought that one of the four of them could take Zhang Can as a disciple and lead him to develop in this industry, which was a great benefit. However, he did not expect that Zhong Yishan directly invited him to the association. This was better than anything else. It was not to let him learn, but to directly push him to a position similar to the four of them!
This antique research association is semi-official and semi-organized. Its background is composed of Beijing and several of the most powerful universities in the country. It is composed of the top ancient research professors and scholars in the country. Basically, they are all identified in the country's most influential archaeological activities, and some private activities are also invited to come forward to appraise, but the appearance fee is astonishingly high, and they may not agree to come forward.
To Zhang Can, a young man like Zhang Can, is actually a step forward to being an honorary professor. Having this "Empressive Professor" brand almost means reputation, money, and status are at the same time.
Zhang Can has never held a job or done anything in such an organization, and he doesn't know what good this name will do to him. Moreover, a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan and a appearance fee of 200,000 yuan each time are nothing to him, so he did not show a very happy expression.
Wang Qian smiled and bowed, "Four elders, I thank you for Zhang Can. To be honest, I brought him here today. I really just wanted one of you four to accept him as a disciple. But I didn't expect you to push him to such a high position. Thank you very much!"
Zhong Yishan waved his hand and said, "No need to thank you. In fact, you know that this position is not something that can be done by relationships. The relationship between the third young master and us is not something that can be met in a day or two. If you introduce us to a disciple, it is absolutely fine, but it is absolutely impossible to get us to be accepted into the association as an honorary professor at the same level. We can directly hire Xiao Zhang today. That is his strength, not any relationship. Please understand this from the third young master!"
Wang Qian nodded and smiled, "I understand, I understand, but I still want to thank the four of you!"
Zhong Yishan thought for a while and said, "Stop talking about that, it just so happens that I will go to the south tomorrow, and there is an invitation. Lao Huang, Lao Xu, and Lao Lan have no time. Xiao Zhang, would you like to go with me?"
