As A Trash Collector, I Collected A Imperial Jade Seal Chapter 82 – 82 Qianlong Era Cloisonné Enamel! Valued at 25 Million! (1)

82 Qianlong Era Cloisonné Enamel! Valued at 25 Million! (1)

“Holy sh*t!”

“9 million?”

“The bid for this silver coin has already reached 9 million?”

When the viewers heard Hua Juncai’s bid, shock wracked them as if they had been struck by a lightning bolt.

Though there had been transactions for silver coins that had exceeded 10 million, or even 20 million in the past, such cases were few and far between.

It was at this moment that the viewers realized, perhaps this silver coin was actually a bigger deal than they had expected.

However, just as the price of the Yuan Datou had reached its peak…

No more bids came.

After all, not every collector liked silver coins. Some liked jade, some liked furniture, and some liked small trinkets. Each of them had a different area of focus.

Luo Feng initially wanted to wait for more bids to be offered…

However, upon realizing that no one else was interested, he shrugged and was about to accept the offer…

Suddenly, like a bolt from the blue, Qin Rubing called out her bid of 10 million yuan.

“Deal!”

Luo Feng accepted her offer without an ounce of hesitation, avoiding any chance of Qin Rubing from retracting it.

Luo Feng could tell that she had done it on an impulse.

After all, every time she bid, she would only increase the total bid by 100 thousand yuan. This gave Luo Feng an impression that she was stingy, and was lacking in financial capital when compared to other antique shops.

However, logically speaking, the Rare Treasure Pavilion was not supposed to be a small workshop.

“…”

Qin Rubing was a little confused at what had just transpired. She had originally intended to bid 9.1 million yuan, but a slip of the tongue had given rise to a costly mistake…

“Congratulations, Miss Qin. This is an additional character version of the Yuan Datou from the 3rd year of the Republic of China. It has great collection value, and I’m sure that if you were to auction it at your store, you’ll be able to fetch an even higher price!”

Seeing this, Master Zhong chuckled.

Though Qin Rubing would still make a profit from it, the margins would be considerably less than she had originally anticipated.

“You’re doing good, host! All in all, I think you’ve made 20 million from this excursion so far?”

“20 million, that’s crazy man!”

“But the silver coins we’ve seen so far should be the most expensive ones contained within the crate, right? After all, most of the silver coins they appraised were only worth around a few thousand yuan.”

“Ah, another day where I lament at the unfairness of this world!”

“20 million! That’s equivalent to 3 high-end Ferrarris!”

“Please don’t watch this livestream if you don’t have a strong heart!”

“…”

While the viewers had already declared that there were no longer any coins of interest, Master Zhong seemed to think that there were more coins of value.

He began sifting through the coins within the chest.

“This is from the 9th year of the Republic of China, it’s not worth much!”

“1998? Made in Jiangnan province? It should be worth more than 8000 Yuan. Not bad!”

“Oh, wow… Now, this is good stuff!”

Suddenly.

Master Zhong exclaimed softly.

“This is from the 3rd year of the Xuantong period, but it’s a variant of the coin which has a long-bearded dragon!”

“This is extremely rare!”

An Peng immediately asked, “Master Zhong, is this one even more expensive?”

“Of course it is! It’s already well beyond the 10 million mark!” With a chuckle, Master Zhong continued, “As for whether it’ll exceed the 20 million threshold, that remains to be seen. It’ll have to depend on the ensuing auction, though I believe there’s a chance!”

Holy cow!

!!!!

!!!

The crowd present was once again riled up by the old man’s words.

Its value could potentially exceed 20 million?

What the hell?

Master Zhong thought for a moment before explaining, “The long-bearded dragon version of the Xuantong silver coin was issued in large quantities, but due to special reasons, not many of them remain. In addition, the dragon’s spine on the silver coin is very vivid and lifelike, making its collectible value rather high. If memory serves, a coin of the same variant had been auctioned for 16 million in the Jiangnan province five years ago. And now, five years later, I believe that its market has only grown. It is for this reason that I daresay that its potential value might surpass 20 million!”

Upon hearing this, everyone understood immediately that Master Zhong was being conservative when he claimed here was a chance.

After all, many would doubt his legitimacy had the silver coin not fetch a 20 million price tag.

According to the market situation five years ago, the auction price reached 16 million.

So, after five years, the long-bearded dragon silver coin must have appreciated significantly.

Therefore, there was a high likelihood that it would be sold for 20 million.

“Then I’ll pay 16 million!”

Ji Shunjin from Natural Home made the first bid.

This was a rather measly figure for him, and posed no issue, unlike Qin Rubing who had to think long and hard before making an offer of her own.

There were many restrictions imposed on Qin Rubing’s spending. If she were to spend too much money on these purchases, she would undoubtedly draw her family’s ire.

“F*ck, how rich is the boss of Natural Home? How is he constantly bidding?”

“He’s definitely a big shot!”

“I couldn’t dig up any information of him from the Internet. I bet he’s a hidden figure!”

“Haha, stop joking around. Have you considered that he’s simply just not famous?”

“Oh no, you’ve seen through me!”

“This is crazy man! The host is going to earn 16 million again?”

“Even a bank robber wouldn’t score as big as our host!”

“At first, I only though that the chest contained a pile of silver coins worth only a few thousand yuan each, but I never expected things to turn out this way! This is freaking amazing!”

“Silver coins are truly not meant to be underestimated!”

Master Zhong continued to direct his attention at the silver coins within the chest.

Unfortunately, he did not manage find anything else which was worth more than a million.

Most of them were ordinary silver coins worth only a few thousand yuan.

With the silver coins now out of the way, Master Zhong then proceeded to the gold bars stored in the middle layer.

“There’s quite a large number of gold bars in here!”

As he spoke, Master Zhong took out a gold bar from the box.

The way that the gold bars glittered under the light made it look much more attractive than the dull silver coins.

“This seems to weigh about 30 grams? It’s probably a small yellow fish1?”

Master Zhong estimated.

“How much is this one worth?” An Peng asked.

“Hehe, gold bars are not worth much!” Mr. Zhong shook his head and said, “While the gold itself is valuable, it retains its worth only as a form of currency. Without any proper craftsmanship put into it, it’ll only be worth around 1.1 to 2 times more than a normal piece of gold. In other words, you can vaguely estimate its price by multiplying its weight by 2 times the current value per ounce of gold.”
