"Brother Man, how much has our store sold in the past few days?"

After hearing Man Jun's words, the sleepy fat man and Sanpao immediately woke up. This is everyone's store. Good business means making a lot of money. When they hear that all the things in the store are sold out, the little sleepy bug in their minds will disappear immediately.

"Six hundred and eighty-two thousand..." When he said this number, Man Jun's voice was also trembling.

It is January 10th. It only took ten days before opening, and it achieved sales of nearly 7 million, with daily sales of nearly 700,000. This performance was generated when the stock was out of stock for two days. In other words, it actually took Man Jun only five days to achieve such results.

When doing antique business, there has always been a saying that it has not opened for three years and has been sold for three years. Manjun has also traded orders of millions of dollars several times, but it was a matter of millions of dollars a day and a number of consecutive days. Manjun never dared to think about it before, because it was almost impossible for the antique business.

"Six...more than six million?"

Hearing the number spitting out of Manjun's mouth, Fatty and Sanpao were stunned. You know, they only bought a shop worth 300,000 to 400,000 yuan. It has only been a few days since they opened, and they actually made enough money to buy twenty shops. This is not a business, it is just a robbery.

"Six hundred and eighty-two thousand? Brother Man, I... what I left behind is worth so much?"

Not to mention Fatty and Sanpao, even Fang Yi was a little surprised when he heard this number. He remembered that before he left, he carved a batch of handheld pieces and pendants of Hetian jade. In addition, the yellow rosewood was also carved, but there were only a hundred pieces in total, so how could it be sold at such a high price?

"The market has the final say whether it is worth it!"

Man Jun smiled with a pleat on his face, touched his bald head, and said, "Fang Yi, you are famous now. Everyone knows that a young master has appeared in the jade carving industry. As long as it is your thing, it will be bought immediately if it is placed, and there is no bargaining..."

"Brother Man, don't just touch your head..."

Fang Yi found that the bald guy always liked to touch his head with his hands. Peng Bin was like this. Man Jun also had this habit. He said dissatisfiedly: "Brother Man, tell me, there must be something inside here, right?"

Although Fang Yi didn't go down the mountain for a long time, he had two master-level teachers, Yu Xuan and Sun Lianda, and his understanding of antiques was not inferior to that of the Manchu army.

Fang Yi knew that antiques business is also an industry that is experienced and talks about seniority. Many masters were not famous during their lifetimes in ancient and modern times, but after their death, their works shine. There are many such characters.

Like Van Gogh, a master of the Dutch painting world, his voice was very failed. Fame and fortune were empty, love was miserable, hunger and bitter, and suffered from cold rain and destruction. He drew a painting for a lifetime, but Van Gogh sold only one for four hundred francs during his lifetime.

But who would have thought that in the hundred years after Van Gogh's death, he became a world-renowned painter. Museums in all countries around the world were honored to be able to collect his paintings. A self-portrait of Van Gogh was sold at a sky-high price of 71.5 million in 1998.

There are many such examples in China. For example, some masters who were named a national art craftsman in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China, who made purple clay teapots at the most cost of dozens of yuan during their lifetime, but after decades, their works can often be sold for tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, and it is hard to find anything.

Therefore, the saying that you should become famous as soon as possible does not apply to antique shops or artists.

Even if you are a genius, it requires the public to have a familiar process with you and the market needs to gradually accept his works. This is not a matter of just one thing. You should know that Shakespeare was not famous when he was alive, but his works have been interpreted until now.

Therefore, Fang Yi does not think that he can enjoy the treatment of a master if he is at the level of master. Looking at the country, those who are called masters are not in their seventies and eighties, and those who are in their early sixties all belong to young people in this industry.

"Fang Yi, it's okay, you're quite calm..." Hearing Fang Yi's words, Man Jun couldn't help laughing and said, "If you want to talk about this, you have to thank Mr. Sun and Teacher Yu, and Director Zhao. Without them, you can't be famous..."

It turned out that when Fang Yi's antique shop opened, Yu Xuan and Sun Lianda came uninvited. They almost finished cutting the color of the antique market, and then ran to Fang Yi's antique shop to cut the ribbon.

Don’t underestimate this ribbon cutting. The effect brought by an unknown antique shop is sensational. What is Yu Xuan and Sun Lianda’s status in the industry? They work together to cut the ribbon for an antique shop, and the face is too great.

What's more, on the day of opening, the antique market gathered most domestic collectors. Yu Xuan and Sun Lianda's actions were like a weather vane, making their eyes all focus on Fang Yi's store.

After the ribbon cutting, Sun Lianda and Yu Xuan actually stayed in the store and recommended Fang Yi's works to those old friends.

It is not easy for those who can participate in the opening ceremony to find an outsider, so without Sun Lianda and Yu Xuanduo, they can see the exquisite carving of Fang Yi's works at a glance. These jade wares are carved vividly, as if they are given life and are full of spirituality.

Antiques are about fame, but ultimately, it depends on the quality of the work. With Sun Lianda and Yu Xuan here, will Fang Yi be less famous in the future? But when Fang Yi becomes famous, the price of his works will also increase accordingly.

Everyone present naturally understands this truth. Although Fang Yi's works are not cheap now, as long as they are kept in their hands for three or five years, the value increase will be less than three or five times. It can be said that with the intangible guarantees of Yu Xuan and Sun Lianda, the buyer Fang Yi's works will definitely be more cost-effective than investing in stock real estate.

However, there were three people who had a climax of buying. The first one was Chairman Lan of Xinbai. She bought a million yuan at a time and bought the most expensive ornaments in Fang Yi's store. She said she would put them on the desk to enjoy them every day. This was because Lan Lian was afraid that Fang Yi would be unhappy and only bought one million yuan.

The next person who bought Fang Yi's works was unexpected, which was Mr. Qin Haichuan, the former director of the Beijing Museum. Although his work was not as big as a blue lotus, he also bought 200,000 yuan in jade. In his words, the other party also appreciated Fang Yi's jade-carving skills.

Mr. Qin's influence is not inferior to Yu Xuan and Sun Lianda. To a certain extent, he even has a higher status in the industry than the two. When he took action and expressed his appreciation attitude, almost everyone's doubts disappeared.

The third person to take action was Zhao Hongtao, the new director of the Jinling Museum. Zhao Hongtao bought several distinctive jade works on behalf of the museum and announced in public that he would include them in the museum's collection. Zhao Hongtao's actions immediately ignited everyone's desire to buy.

You should know that it is very difficult to become a collection of a national museum. Many art festivals can only enjoy this honor after they die. The number of old artists who can do this in the present world is probably no more than one slap in the face.

With the help of these three people, Fang Yi's works that were priced at more than 10,000 yuan each immediately doubled in the eyes of everyone. Those who originally thought they were selling expensive now feel that they were selling too cheaply.

So on the first day of its opening, Fang Yi's store sold three million yuan in sales. At night, Man Jun was so excited that he couldn't fall asleep all night when he looked at the receipts he had made on the Pos machine.

But the next day, the people who came to buy Fang Yi's jade works increased instead of reducing.

If Man Jun had not controlled the shipment volume and raised the price, he would have sold out all the things Fang Yi carved the next day. However, even so, by the fifth day, none of the items left by Fang Yi could have been left.

Fortunately, the New Year's Day holiday was over at this time, because the antique market opened and those who came to support the show also went back. Otherwise, Man Jun would really not know how he would deal with these people. You must know that he could not buy things with money. The resentment caused by those people made Man Jun want to dig a crack in the ground and crawl in.

There are many well-known domestic collectors who left a phone number and contact information for Man Jun before leaving, saying that as long as there are master Fang Yi's works in the future, they will be able to negotiate as much as they want.

Man Jun, who has been in the antique shop for so many years, knows very well that an antique shop can establish such a relationship with these collectors who are not short of money at the beginning of its opening, which is equivalent to paving a golden road.

PS: I will go to Guangzhou for a meeting tomorrow. Let’s start with one chapter in the next few days. One week, well, two chapters will be restored in one week.
Chapter completed!
