    Even if Zhou Xia knew Zhang Jie's thoughts, she would not argue with him at all. In his opinion, the two of them were not on the same level at all, and they couldn't find the fun in slapping each other in the face.  His psychological attitude is reflected on the outside, that is, he is content and contented, reading his own books and not being affected by external things at all.

    Although he was unwilling, Zhang Jie still stepped forward to say hello to Zhou Xia, because he had nowhere else to go now.

    "Zhou Xia, you came here so early, what are you reading?" Zhang Jie asked him.

    "Morning!" Zhou Xia replied subconsciously. He looked up and saw Zhang Jie, but the expression on his face was still very calm, and then said, "Some identification information, feel free to look through it if you have nothing to do."

    Zhang Jie smiled and said, "Zhou Xia, you are really amazing. You can turn pages of books so fast that none of us can match them!"

    Zhou Xia saw that he had misunderstood, but he did not clarify it. He just smiled and said, "You said it was just reading the book! What if you are not fast? By the way, how is the company's situation these days?"

    Zhang Jie replied, "Just one word, busy! I guess we will have to wait until the autumn auction is over before everyone can breathe a sigh of relief. On the other hand, Zhou Xia, you are now promoted to a senior appraiser, so you don't have to work around with us."

    Zhou Xia said, "There is no distinction between high and low, everyone has to do their part for the company, right?"

    Zhang Jie couldn't help scolding him for being hypocritical in his heart, but on the surface, he still had to work hard, and asked with a smile, "Have you collected any new treasures recently? You might as well bring them to the company for everyone to see. Although this time  The collection for the autumn auction has ended, but there is still a need for a large number of lots for the spring auction next year. Judging from the items in your collection, they are all exquisite, and we are all very proud of you."

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "Fakes are everywhere these days, so it would be nice to have genuine ones. I'm just a little luckier than ordinary people, so I can't guarantee that all the collections are high-quality products. And I think, Zhang Jie, you can also do it after get off work." Maybe if you go out and walk around more, you can find good things and pick up some missing ones."

    "The company is too busy with things. Where do you have time to go? But you have plenty of time now. You can go shopping on Taobao more, and we can get some profit." Zhang Jie said to Zhou Xia in a bewildering way.

    Although Zhang Jie is full of envy, jealousy and hatred towards Zhou Xia, he is also quite self-aware and does not think that with his own eyesight and level, he can pick up any mistakes in such a chaotic market.  Moreover, Zhang Jie also believed that if you often stand by the river, your shoes won't get wet. Even though Zhou Xia is now enjoying great glory, one day he might be able to go back to before liberation.

    Zhou Xia didn¡¯t think that Zhang Jie would suddenly change his gender and have such good intentions. As expected, Zhang Jie was looking forward to him ¡°eye-catching¡±, ¡°taking medicine¡± and ¡°stepping on landmines¡±!

    Of course, everyone is a gentle person, so Zhou Xia will not fall out rashly if the other party doesn't break his skin.  He smiled happily and thanked him for his kindness, and also said, "Thank you for your blessing, if I really receive something suitable for auction, I will definitely choose to hand it over to the company for operation. This is also the greatest trust in myself, haha  !¡±

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    This was Zhang Jie¡¯s first thought about his words. Now, Zhang Jie was also happy!  He originally thought that Zhou Xia was so humble in studying so hard, but he didn't expect that deep down in his heart, he still had the mentality of being a villain who can't help but succeed.  Sooner or later, such a nouveau riche will suffer losses in the market. Zhang Jie is very happy to see such a scene, and also looks forward to the day when he loses all his current wealth and even owes a fortune in the antique collecting market.

    After chatting with him for a few words, Zhou Xia continued to read. Of course, he still browsed at his previous speed, like flipping through a book.

    Zhang Jie, who was bored for nothing, sneered in his heart, "I told you to pretend! Let's see how long you can pretend!"

    For Zhang Jie, times like this are much more uncomfortable than letting him work seriously.

    Fortunately, after a while, we arrived at the opening point of the company. The receptionist Yu Xiaoyu arrived early. Seeing that Zhou Xia, who had not shown up for several days, actually came to work at the company, she ignored Zhang Jie gracefully and only  He said to Zhou Xia with a smile, "You are really a rare visitor! It's really exciting to welcome the appraiser Zhou to our company!"

    Zhou Xia then put away the information and responded with a smile, "Xiaoyu, you know how to tease me, how about you, are you busy these days?"

    Yu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "I'm not bad, Manager Liu and them are very busy. By the way, Zhou Xia, did you miss something again and receive a painting worth tens of millions? It's because the company is  What's the name of the painting that was being promoted with great fanfare, oh, yes, Bada Shanren's "Cuckoo Crying in Blood"."

    Since Zhou Xia bought the painting, she has either been studying the catalog at home or going shopping with Xu Yaohui, and has never been to the company at all.

    Yu Xiaoyu loves gossip the most.She also has the best information. How could such a calligraphy and painting work worth tens of millions of dollars, and the finale of the autumn auction of calligraphy and painting, not attract her attention.

    Originally, the company had regulations that did not allow casual inquiry or disclosure of the personal information of the person who submitted the photo.  But Yu Xiaoyu relied on her cute appearance and was very popular with everyone. She learned from Xu Zhendong and Liu Yuqing that the person who submitted this work had a close relationship with Tiandi Auction Company.

    Based on this alone, Yu Xiaoyu thought of Zhou Xia for the first time.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? away out and about the few small exquisite pieces that Zhou Xia himself sent for photography, it is said that the highlight of the porcelain category, Xuande Qinghua porcelain, also had his part in it.

    Therefore, Yu Xiaoyu now wants to make final confirmation.

    Of course, her way of confirmation was quite special. She asked Zhou Xia almost in an affirmative tone.

    Wealth and honor do not return home, just like walking in brocade at night.

    Although Zhou Xia didn't mean to show off, she couldn't resist Yu Xiaoyu's enthusiasm.  What's more, this is a fact. You can't hide it even if you want to, and you can't keep a low profile even if you want to.

    Zhou Xia nodded calmly and admitted, "Yes, but when I first received it, I just thought the unfinished painting was somewhat interesting. I originally wanted to buy it home and hang it up for appreciation. Unexpectedly, Chairman Liu passed by later  , Master Xu and his colleagues identified it as an authentic work of Bada Shanren, and sent it to this autumn auction."

    "Wow, that painting is really yours!" Yu Xiaoyu simply didn't know what to say. "That's worth tens of millions! In such a short time, you have completed the three-step jump from Desire and Dragon Gate, from millions to  The annual salary is tens of millions, which is really unbelievable.¡±

    Zhou Xia was very calm and said with a smile, "This is just a preliminary estimate. It is still unknown until it is auctioned and paid. If it is not recognized by others, it is no different from having no value."

    Yu Xiaoyu shouted, "How is that possible! Zhou Xia, can you have some confidence? This is the highlight of our company's autumn auction! I think, since it is a work of Bada Shanren, it is still such a historical work, and it is of great value  Ten million is not too much at all. I think the estimate is too low! It is not only the change in Bada Shanren's painting style, the twists and turns of his mental journey, but also a witness to the demise of the Ming Dynasty."

    Zhou Xia chuckled, "Even Xiaoyu knows this. It seems that the company has done a very good job in promoting this painting. If the descendants of Lao Zhu's family are rich, they might be able to sell it for a good price."

    "The descendants of the old Zhu family?" Yu Xiaoyu was a little confused.

    "They are the descendants of Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. In fact, it doesn't have to be really their descendants. It's good to have this excuse. Otherwise, it will be quite difficult to get a particularly good price." Zhou Xia said about this.  I have quite a profound understanding. After all, the current economic downturn means that not many people are willing to spend cash to buy collections.

    "That's it! It's true when you think about it. After all, it's something left by the ancestors! Bada Shanren is also a descendant of the Ming Dynasty royal family." Yu Xiaoyu seemed to have some realization.

    Zhou Xia smiled and said, "It seems that the information on Bada Shanren has been popularized very well these days."

    Yu Xiaoyu chuckled. She was not a professional, and she didn¡¯t remember much about ancient Chinese painters.  But she has been hearing about it in the auction company for a long time, like the Bada Shanren that the company has recently promoted, it is still quite meaningful to someone like her.

    Zhou Xia is right. This also shows from one aspect that the company's publicity planning is still very effective. At the very least, people in your own company must have something to say.

    "When the autumn shoot is over, Zhou Xia, you really have to treat us to a nice meal. Such a lot of money, tens of millions, is something I couldn't even imagine before." Yu Xiaoyu also asked him to treat us.

    "That's for sure. Let's all work harder and strive for good results, and everyone will be happy." Zhou Xia encouraged.

    Yu Xiaoyu smiled and said, "Why do I hear what Manager Liu said?"

    Poor, miserable Zhang Jie was completely in the background. He couldn't stand the tone of voice between the two of them, so he went to the company on his own.

    Yu Xiaoyu ignored him at all and continued to gossip with Zhou Xia, asking him how much he paid for the "Cuckoo's Cry of Blood" painting by Bada Shanren. Of course, she also added, "If you don't want to talk about it, forget it."  ¡±

    Zhou Xia replied, "Actually, there's nothing I can't say. I bought it together with several other paintings, so I spent a few thousand dollars in total!"

    "Thousands of dollars and tens of millions!" Although Yu Xiaoyu had expected it, he still couldn't turn around for a while.  She just tilted her head and calculated the difference.

    "Even if you buy it for 10,000 yuan, there will be a thousand times of net income! Then you have to buy a lot"??What a beautiful dress!  "Yu Xiaoyu's eyes had long been filled with little stars, but now, there were even more stars in her eyes.

    Zhou Xia has nothing to say. Anyone who would have such a thing would find it unbelievable.

    He has already passed the excitement stage now. In fact, the biggest benefit he got from buying Bada Shanren's "Cuckoo Crying with Blood" is that he has one more precious cultural relic that has been systematically identified, worth ten million or something.  The next best thing.

    Of course, this is also related to the fact that it is estimated to be worth tens of millions and is not easy to get.

    In today¡¯s antique collection market, it is not easy to sell good things at auction, let alone such large amounts in private.

    After a while, Wang Chao, Wang Yanli, Chen Xiaojun and others also came to work in the company one after another.

    Without exception, the first thing they said when they met Zhou Xia was to ask him if the "Cuckoo Crying in Blood" was sent for photography by him.

    After Zhou Xia nodded in recognition, everyone also asked him to treat him, and they all said that the previous grade was not large enough to match the style and taste of Zhou Xia, a newly minted multi-millionaire.

    Zhou Xia agreed with a smile, but he also made it clear that he would have to wait until the auction was actually completed and get the money. He also encouraged them to work harder for this autumn auction.

    Wang Chao, who has a good relationship with him and always has no scruples in speaking, also said, "Zhou Xia, you are a multi-millionaire, and now you are becoming more and more like a capitalist! This is starting to squeeze our labor force."

    Zhou Xia replied, "I'm still far away from being a capitalist. When I become a billionaire, it won't be too late to call myself a capitalist. The harder we work, the better we can eat and play. It's fair."  Well!"

    Wang Chao chuckled and said, "Even if we don't treat you, we still have to work harder. Manager Liu treats us well, and there will be red envelopes when the time comes, so we are full of motivation!"

    "It's quite good to have such an understanding!" Zhou Xia joked with them.

    This kind of chat experience also made Wang Chao and the others feel very happy, because Zhou Xia did not look down on their former friends just because his net worth soared and he became a multimillionaire.

    After all, the company is not a place for chatting and spanking. By the time Liu Yuqing arrived at the company, everyone was already in their places and doing the work at hand according to the previous arrangements.

    Now that the items for the autumn auction are available, in addition to increasing publicity, how to contact more buyers to participate in the auction is now the focus of the work.  This also requires the company's employees to attract buyers to come and bid at the autumn auction through phone calls or other means.

    Of course, this is only a matter for the employees below.

    Company executives like Liu Yuqing and others are busy with more things. In addition to arranging tasks for the employees below, they often need to personally go into battle and use personal relationships to find suitable buyers for autumn auction items.

    In this regard, Zhou Xia has natural shortcomings. Even if he wants to help, he cannot help.

    Everyone has their own strengths. If you don¡¯t have the time and effort, it¡¯s better to appraise a few more things, which can not only increase experience points for yourself but also solve daily problems for the company.

    Liu Yuqing is a smart person and knows how to use good steel on the blade.

    She didn¡¯t think about asking Zhou Xia to do things like contact customers. She was just a little surprised and touched that Zhou Xia, who had disappeared for a few days, took the initiative to come to the company to work.

    In Zhou Xia¡¯s eyes, Liu Yuqing was as dazzling as ever. She was dressed in black as a professional outfit, which not only highlighted her beautiful figure, but also gave her a lot of the temperament and style of an urban beauty.

    "How have you been in the past few days?" After seeing Zhou Xia, Liu Yuqing took the initiative to greet him before he could say anything. "I've been so busy these days that I forgot to call you to ask about the situation."

    Zhou Xia smiled and replied, "I mainly spent my energy on studying the auction catalog, and also went around with Uncle Xu. I didn't receive anything good myself, but I gained a lot of knowledge. In terms of sensory methods  The water is no shallower than that of porcelain and jade.

    Liu Yuqing said, "Yes, the current market is too chaotic, and it is difficult to find genuine products, let alone high-quality products. You'd better come to my office to discuss some things. I need to discuss some things with you carefully."

    Zhou Xia agreed wholeheartedly, and then followed him to Liu Yuqing's office, but he didn't quite know what Liu Yuqing wanted to discuss with him.

    Other employees of the company, such as Wang Chao and Chen Xiaojun, are used to such scenes. After all, Zhou Xia and Liu Yuqing had a better relationship than others before, and they often went out to appraise things together.  The only one who was aggrieved was Zhang Jie. Zhou Xia, the ginseng winner, was a huge blow to him.  Zhou Xia fishes over the dragon gate and not only gainsHuge amounts of money, and the possibility of getting a beautiful woman back, this is a reality he cannot accept no matter what.

    After entering the office, Liu Yuqing closed the door herself and asked Zhou Xia in an easy-going manner, "How is your research on the auction catalog? Do you have any good things that you value?"

    Zhou Xia said, "It's too expensive and I don't dare to go see it. There are some small boutiques that can be included in the scope of inspection. My plan is to go to the auction preview venue first and carefully appraise it. If there is a chance, I'd better try my best to sell it."  Take it down. Of course, the main focus is on learning. All the major auction companies are working hard for this autumn auction event, which is a rare learning opportunity."

    Liu Yuqing smiled and said, "It's good if you have such a mentality. In fact, we can also think about it from another angle. We are engaged in auctions ourselves, and you should also know that if small boutique items like this are confirmed to be genuine, everyone will  Everyone can see the value, and it is easier to get a good price. It is a bit mysterious to try to find something at a low price. But there may not be too many people selling some medium-quality items now, so it is easy to get them at a suitable price. Too high-end  High-quality products are another concept.¡±

    "That's the truth!" Zhou Xia nodded, secretly thinking that her grasp of the market is quite accurate. However, Zhou Xia's current strength is limited and she can only work on small products. Those things that easily cost tens of millions, he  I can¡¯t afford it now!

    Liu Yuqing was also very clear about his financial situation, so she stopped telling lies. Soon, she told him about their efforts in the past few days.

    Liu Yuqing's voice was clear and pleasant. "The several important items in our autumn auction this time, the Xuande green hua porcelain that you invested in, and the Yongle green hua bowl that our family brought out, the publicity effect is indeed quite good. This is  In the past two days, we have received many calls from people interested in purchasing, and the prices are not much different from our previous valuations. In fact, some buyers¡¯ psychological prices are even higher, I think.¡±

    Zhou Xia said, "Yongxuan Qinghu¨¡ is relatively precious to begin with, but under such market conditions, it can still have such a strong performance. Manager Liu, your efforts are indispensable."

    Liu Yuqing smiled and said, "Your contribution is not small. If you hadn't persisted, I would have missed such a good opportunity."
