Eight hundred and forty-seven That's a good thing

Lao Hei can be the king and hegemon here, and he has been bullying and dominating the market for so many years, but these thugs have real merits.

Not to mention the distance, let's just say that in recent years, a child of a high-ranking official from outside has fallen in love with a commodity on Lao Hei's stall, not to mention that the child of a high-ranking official still has a certain appreciation for antiques and other things. But according to Lao Hei's nature, that thing is mostly fake. At that time, the son of the high-ranking official wanted to buy that counterfeit goods, and Lao Hei would not sell it anyway, Lao Hei knew that he had no way to do anything to this person, but if anyone knew that what he bought was sold from himself, then he would not be able to continue to mix in the black market in the future. So he ostensibly sold this thing to the son of the high-ranking official, and then after he went out, he sent his own thugs to intercept him on the way, which resulted in serious casualties, and that incident was also in the local newspaper, but Lao Hei's identity was mysterious, and in the end the whole thing was over.

Although it is said that the salary of black market thugs is high, once they meet someone like Li Huan, they will be completely blind.

"You, you ......" Lao Hei looked at the thug who fell to the ground, speechless, and finally shuddered and choked a sentence: "Who are you......"

"Who am I? You're not qualified to know, I'm just telling you that this is not the place for you to bully. Okay, that's all I have to say, it seems that you don't have any other thugs that I need to help you clean up. If that's the case, then I'll leave, if you have any comments, I won't leave the black market for the time being, and you are welcome to come to me at any time. Li Huan said lightly.

"Oh my God, you see that young man isn't like that. ”

"That's right, I didn't see how he made a move just now, I know these thugs, Lao Hei, all of them are ruthless. I didn't expect them to be planted in the hands of a young man. ”

"There's a good show to watch now, this guy Lao Hei, in fact, I'm also dissatisfied with him. It's just that this guy bullies the market, and I don't bother to see him in general. I thought this guy would be cleaned up one day, but I never thought he would be cleaned up by a young man. Well, great, now that there is one less guy in the black market who bullies the market, we are safer to buy and sell. ”

"You guy, why didn't you jump out when people were besieged just now, and now you see that people are taking advantage, you have something to say, you guy is really a dog's character, and the grass on the wall is talking about people like you. ”

Although Lao Hei has been bullying and dominating the market for so many years, to be honest, he is just an ordinary person. His big men may have some ability, but they can't go anywhere for a second in Li Huan's hands. This is still under the premise that Li Huan did not use the ability of a cultivator - because Li Huan's body has long been tempered by nanorobots and aura to be extremely hard, and his reflex nerve is already dozens of orders of magnitude higher than that of normal people, to put it mildly, not to mention whether they can touch the corner of Li Huan for the time being, even if Li Huan stands there and is beaten, he can't dodge at all and carry it with his body, and those big men can't take Li Huan at all. His current realm has long passed, and it is time to level his body, even if he fights purely with his body, Li Huan has the confidence to win down any ordinary person.

After the big men fell to the ground, they didn't seem to attract anyone's attention.

However, Li Huan found that after he defeated those big men, a few cultivators came out of the corner of the market, and they dragged those big men to an unknown place without saying a word. When they appeared, Li Huan noticed that they were wearing uniform uniforms, and it was obvious that they were some kind of managers in this market. And when the farce just started, they didn't show up, which shows that their status is still very high, and they are only responsible for dealing with some emergencies, such as the conflict between Li Huan and Lao Hei's thugs just now. When the two sides clashed just now, these people didn't show up at all, and they didn't appear until Li Huan won and silently cleared these people.

According to this logic, Li Huan believed that even if Lao Hei's gang won just now, those people would come out and drag themselves and Luo Sheng away. What they play is a kind of guardian of order - there are cultivators guarding a small black market here, who is the master behind it?

"These guys are like this, why didn't they show up just now to stop the brawl?" Li Huan squinted his eyes and looked at Luo Sheng in the direction where those big men disappeared and asked, "They can obviously stop them just now, these guys are very powerful, as long as they make a move, those big men don't have a chance at all." Are they playing the role of guardians of some kind of order, and they will only act after one side has decided the winner? I don't quite understand the meaning of their existence. ”

"This ......" Luo Sheng smiled bitterly: "You're right, these people, well, may not be able to call them human beings at all...... They are the managers hired by the owners of this black market, and they do not exist to protect any security, but to demonstrate the authority of the owners of this black market. That is, they will only appear when they disturb the authority of the black market owner. ”

That's right, it's really like this, Li Huan felt that he had thought right.

This black market seems to be quite deep, so its founder must be a wealthy tycoon. Although here he came, what Li Huan saw were ordinary people's transactions, not what kind of natural treasures he saw when he made a move, most of the goods here were just ordinary antiques, and the people who came to trade were also ordinary people, but judging from the hands of the people watching the field, the boss of this open black market must be a cultivator. Cultivators need to accumulate wealth, and they need a lot of wealth, so they do this. If this thing is started by ordinary people, then it doesn't matter about Li Huan's business, if it is a cultivator, it has a lot to do with Li Huan.

To put it mildly, this thing is a crime in the first place, although it is not a pure crime, but it is a crime in the black zone. This kind of thing can be big or small, Li Huan thought that if he waited and saw the boss who opened the black market, if he was a serious person, and he just wanted to make money by doing business seriously, then Li Huan could let him go, if she used the ability of a cultivator to go to the country to protect it, it was really embarrassing, Li Huan might turn his face on the spot, which was also one of his responsibilities.

Moreover, although Li Huan came in, the cultivators who were watching the scene did not discover his identity at all. This thing couldn't be more normal, because Li Huan's cultivation was much higher than theirs, and these people couldn't see what his cultivation was like when they looked at Li Huan, and even as long as Li Huan was willing to hide, he was an ordinary person in their eyes. Therefore, after the few cultivators who were watching the scene came out and dragged those big men away, they didn't care about Li Huan at all. This is the best, and it also saves Li Huan some trouble in the quarrel. Wait a minute, if they are serious about doing business, it's fine, if there is something particularly illegal, then Li Huan will reveal his identity on the spot.

As for the mastermind of this farce, that old black, after the big man was dragged away, those cultivators didn't touch him, this is probably an unspoken rule in the market - but even if those managers don't move him, Lao Hei won't want to do business on the black market in his life.

Lao Hei looked at this, looked at the helpless one who put away the stall, in addition to helplessness, there was also a trace of horror on his face - Li Huan could imagine how many people Lao Hei had deceived as many years as he had done business here. The people who can buy things in the black market are either rich or expensive, or they are strong and powerful, and they will cheat them for a lifetime, and once you are found out in your lifetime to cheat these people, the following days will be very difficult.

Lao Hei obviously belongs to the latter......

It was just a small episode, and soon, the old black and his thugs were cleaned up, and the others seemed to be used to this kind of scene, and after these people were cleared, the black market continued to operate according to its inherent order. And everyone was not shocked by the hand that Li Huan showed just now, just like Li Huan guessed, these people are really not rich but expensive, one side is strong, and those thugs actually haven't taken it seriously.

It's just that when they look at those managers, there is a hint of fear in their eyes.

Li Huan just watched all this silently, he had more important things today, Lao Hei was dragged away by the manager, which is also a good thing, so as not to mix dragons and snakes in the market, and everyone is selling fakes, which is different from Li Huan's original intention. Li Huan could even detect that after Lao Hei was dragged away, many stall owners silently changed some goods, which showed that many of the things they put on the table were not coming from the right way - the so-called not coming from the right way

Positive, refers to fakes. After Lao Hei was dragged away, some suspicious stall owners felt that everyone was in danger, and maybe they themselves would be dragged away one day...... It's okay that everyone can replace it with the real thing, so that there won't be any problems later.

"Let's keep watching. There is nothing I want here, some fakes simply cannot be put in the museum. When will the three big merchants you said come out?" Li Huan watched as he walked, and after he was proficient in the use of antique appraisal skills, he found that he could also use Xiao Fei's handset to appraise, so that the speed was faster, he didn't have to hold the antique in his hand at all, but let the handset scan it to distinguish the real from the fake.

"Actually, it's right behind the market, I'll take you there. Luo Sheng's tone changed significantly.

"Cheng, let's go and see the boutique area. Li Huan nodded and took the lead in front.

After Luo Sheng saw the scene just now, his tone towards Li Huan also changed, and when he came over with Li Huan, he still regarded Li Huan as a friend who could make friends with each other. Because in Luo Sheng's concept, Li Huan is an explorer, and he also has a little ability and money, maybe there is some big man standing behind him. It seems that such a person is the best to make friends, because he won't want anything from you, and if you are friends with him, it will be really profitable. However, after the scene just now, Luo Sheng understood that Li Huan was completely different from himself, a person from two worlds. I used to misunderstand him a little, and Li Huan was far more terrifying than he thought.

Because when he faced those managers, he couldn't even see any expression on his face. As the head of a large auction house, Luo Sheng can see people's emotions - pretending to be completely different from the real one, when Li Huan saw those mysterious managers, the expression on his face did not change at all, wasn't he afraid?

Although Luo Sheng hadn't been to this black market a few times, he had heard of the horrors of those managers.

It is said that a few years ago, a group of people came in to rob and eat black, and specially invited mercenaries from outside the well, which were well-equipped. They rushed in when the black market was in full swing and controlled everyone in the black market. People who come to buy things in the black market have become accustomed to black being black, and even they feel that if there is no black eating black drama every year, it is not a black market, and even worse, they will treat this kind of thing as a play. Anyway, as long as you don't eat it, it's a good show to see who you are. And when you come to the black market to buy things, in addition to hoping to buy good things, isn't the drama of eating black every year what everyone likes to see?

However, black eating black is the same thing, it is all small-scale brawls, or the two parties do not like each other, and since the opening of the black market, there has never been such a large-scale robbery.

Nearly 30 mercenaries, well-armed to the point of being armed to the teeth, ran in and took control of everyone in the venue in less than a minute, and then they drove a large truck and smashed directly into the gates of the black market at that time, ready to sweep everything away. According to those who experienced the ** scene back then, these guys have excellent methods, and their eyes are extremely vicious, and there are many bodyguards with them, all of whom were beaten to death at the beginning, and after eliminating all the risk factors, these people controlled the buyers at the scene, blindfolded with a black cloth, and all rushed to a corner to wait for death.

Just when everyone thought it was going to be the end of this time, the black market managers came out, and in less than five minutes, thirty mercenaries armed to the teeth were knocked to the ground and dragged away, and after ten minutes their blindfolds were removed, everything returned to normal, and the managers disappeared. From that time on, they were convinced that as long as those managers were there, the black market would become safer, so the black market business was getting better and better. As for those managers, they did not disappoint them, as long as they were there, there would be no problems in the black market.

There is no one in the black market who is not afraid of these managers, even if Li Huan doesn't know how powerful these managers are, but Luo Sheng knows that as long as he is face to face with those managers, he can't help but tremble, and that fear comes from his heart, being looked at by them, Luo Sheng feels like a sheep favored by a lion. Not only themselves, but also the people who do business in this black market, who is not afraid of those managers? Their eyes seem to have magic......

And Li Huan seems to be a person who has nothing to do, and his face does not change, which makes Luo Sheng feel that Li Huan's identity is not so simple!

Li Huan didn't know what Luo Sheng was thinking in his head, but those managers would definitely not let him be afraid. What kind of international joke, Li Huan is already a master of the eighth layer of Qi training, and those managers are just rookies at the second and third levels. If Li Huan was willing, a spiritual shock could wipe them out, but today Li Huan came to buy things, not to fight, so Li Huan didn't show his strength. As for Luo Sheng's feeling that there was magic in their eyes, there was no doubt that it was because they brought spiritual power to ordinary people......

It's okay for this thing to fool ordinary people, if you want to scare Li Huan, Li Huan has never been intimidated in the face of Tlaltai Kutli......

Luo Sheng didn't say what he thought of Li Huan in his heart, Li Huan didn't ask anything, and the two walked towards the stalls of the three big merchants.

While walking, Luo Sheng introduced: "In fact, most people come to the black market, although they will look at other stalls, but the most are the stalls of your three major traders. Those three big merchants can almost be said to be traders, they sell everything except antiques and cultural toys, and they have contacts with many international criminal groups to help them sell dirty. You'll often see news in their hands about missing spells or stolen items, basically they have anything you want to buy, whether it's legal or not. That's why I suggested we check it out on the black market, maybe they really have what you want. ”

"They dare to sell those things, isn't that a blatant sale of stolen goods?" Li Huan was stunned.

"These people are so powerful here, they know that they are thieves, but they can still wash it clean. There should be a whole chain of interests in this, but I don't know. Luo Sheng shrugged: "And I also heard a rumor that if you fancy something, you can give them a deposit and let them get it, but the price will be two percent higher." Of course, if you want to wash it into a legal channel, the price will be fifty percent higher. ”

"Then it's not a black market, it's a crime. Li Huan was shocked: "How long has this been going on?

"Whoever commits a crime or not...... It's hard to define, because we're on the black market right now. And, according to the habits of the black market, what they get is always clean. In other words, no matter who they are working with, no matter how they get the things, they will actually have the things cleaned when they take over, and we don't have to take risks when we buy and sell. After Luo Sheng finished speaking, he looked left and right, and suddenly lowered his voice: "I heard that "King Solomon's Trial" once appeared here, but it was taken away by a mysterious buyer, and he paid a price of 150 million euros at that time, which is also the highest single value transaction since the opening of the black market." It's just that the buyer is too mysterious, and there is no record of the black market, so no one knows his identity. ”

"King Solomon's Trial"?Li Huan immediately opened the search on the virtual screen.

The painting is by Tintoretto, a famous painter of the Venetian school in Italy in the 16th century.

Tintoretto was born in Venice and died on May 31, 1594. Formerly known as Jacob Robustie. He was trained under Titian and was Titian's most outstanding student and successor. In his more than 40 years of creative career, he has been mainly active in Venice. Inheriting the Titian tradition and innovating, the work imitates Michelangelo in terms of narrative and emotion, highlighting strong movement and rich and fantastical colors, which is unique in the Venetian school.

Tintoretto is a representative of the Venetian school. Tintoretto studied painting in Titian's studio, where he learned the painting techniques of his teacher, but he was an original artist, and Florentine Mannerism tended to have two tendencies, one anti-classical and the other elegant. Tintoretto wanted to combine these two tendencies into one. At the same time, according to legend, he aspired to "paint like Titian and design like Michelangelo." What he meant was to combine Titian's colors with Michelangelo's drawings to create a new kind of art. He successfully combined these two aspects, because his sketches did not have the slightest trace of Michelangelo, and his colors did not resemble Titian's style at all.

Tintoretto was good at passing

Multiple viewpoints enhance the perspective effect and create a dramatic composition. The colors are fantastical, the light flickering, and the figures are exaggerated, often in an unusually short form. Vasari, who admired his skill, could not accept his strong expressionist aspirations, and once complained that Tintoretto was a joke about art.

Only in portraiture did Tintoretto more faithfully inherit the tradition of Titian. Portraiture was in great demand in prosperous Venice, which Titian could not cope with alone, and Tintoretto was busy meeting this demand. The "Portrait of a Gentleman in a Leather Coat" on display at the Italian Renaissance Art Exhibition may be such a production. A careful comparison of it with Titian's "Sick Man" in the exhibition shows that one can still see the differences. Tintoretto grew up in a Counter-Reformation environment and cultivated a fiery pious heart, but his approach was ever-changing, in contrast to Titian's steady personality.

Titian was indeed the greatest painter of the Venetian School, but after him there were geniuses. At this time, the Florentine School was on the path of decline, while the Venetian School continued to flourish. Among Titian's disciples were two great painters. One of them was Tintoretto, and the other disciple was Veronese. Tintoretto means "dyer's son", and his real name is Jacob Robustchi, but no one calls him by his real name nowadays.

Tintoretto loved to draw since he was a child, and the walls and floors of the dye shop were covered with paintings. His father was so proud of this that he begged Titian to take him as a disciple, but he was unruly and did not follow his master's teachings at all, and was finally driven back by Titian. But Tintoretto didn't care at all. With the intention of "having Titian's colors and the image of Michelangelo", he painted many excellent, mostly large-scale paintings with great energy. He said that if the painting is not large, it will not be complete. The frescoes such as "Kingdom of Heaven" are painted in the halls of Venetian palaces, and together with Michelangelo's "Last Judgment", it can be said that the largest mural in the world. Of course, because he is a Venetian painter, he has gorgeous colors and is very bold. The British critic Ruskin thought that "it is indeed comparable to Michelangelo" and greatly admired his paintings.

Tintoretto also has a work called "The Miracle of San Marco", which depicts the dramatic story of a slave believer who is captured by pagans in an era when Christianity is not yet recognized, and when he is about to be killed, St. Mark, the patron saint of Venice, appears and saves the slave. "Susanna's Bath" is also a famous work.

The Judgment of King Solomon, the most satisfying of his life, depicts the story of King David and Solomon, the son of Bathsheba, who wisely and justly tried two women for a baby during their reign over Israel. Solomon, the son of King David and Bathsheba, ruled Israel from about 960-920 B.C.E. Solomon proved his wisdom in the case of two women fighting for a baby. The two women each gave birth to a baby at the same time, one of whom died, and his mother transferred the dead baby to the other woman's child in the evening. As a result, two women argued, both claiming that they were the mothers of the babies. In order to find out the truth, Solomon took a sword and threatened to cut the child in half so that they would each get half. The child's biological mother was immediately willing to give up out of natural motherhood, while the impersonating mother was willing to watch the child die. A large number of works depict this story because it is a vivid example of Solomon's display of wisdom and justice.

The painting was lost in Denmark in 2012 and has not been seen since.

"You mean, that oil painting was also sent out from this black market?" Li Huan touched his chin: "They stole it?"

"Shhhhhh......h Don't take this here, or you'll be in trouble to get those managers out. We're going to get into a lot of trouble, and this little black market is so powerful behind it. We just know it in our hearts, don't say it, in fact, everyone knows this in their hearts, but no one is stupid enough to say it......"

"Understood. Li Huan nodded.

Li Huan felt that there was something wrong with the founder of this black market from the beginning, although the cultivators were collecting money, they were also collecting money in a good way. Using cultivators to manage the black market and collect money from ordinary people is already a matter within the red line, and in the terms and conditions of the Red Sea trade, this kind of thing is already considered a felony, according to the relevant regulations, Li Huan can directly copy this black market and catch the leader behind the scenes. The reason why Li Huan didn't do it at the beginning was just because after the Mo Kingdom some time ago, now the governments of various countries have been very lenient with cultivators, as long as cultivators don't hurt people for no reason, the discipline of cultivators is no longer so strict.

But when Luo Sheng said that matter just now, Li Huan was a little vigilant, if these people were just selling things, it would be okay to say. But listening to Luo Sheng's meaning, they can actually be customized, and they will get you whatever you want-Tingting. This seems to be a customized product specially set up for VIP customers, but how to "get"? To put it bluntly, it is not some illegal and criminal activities.

Anyway, Li Huan is here to choose the right antiques today, if these people really break the law and commit crimes, he doesn't mind arresting them. Of course, there is a limit to breaking the law and committing crimes, and Li Huan doesn't really want to care about the illegal crimes of ordinary people, but if there are really cultivators who break the law and commit crimes, they will definitely not be soft there, after all, the position of Hon Hai Trade is in hand, and it would be too bad if he didn't do anything.

Of course, Li Huan didn't want to talk nonsense before there was no evidence, because the thing he just heard happened abroad. Of course, if he had just heard that they dared to rob domestic museums, then Li Huan would not hesitate to knock everyone down with a spiritual shock, and take them all back to be reviewed slowly.

Now, not yet, Li Huan and Luo Sheng continued to wander around the market.

Li Huan had never been to the black market before, and he always felt that the black market was very magical, but when he actually came to the black market, he felt that the black market seemed to be like that...... It doesn't seem like a big deal. Well, since the mysterious aura has faded, Li Huan looks left and right, and feels that this so-called black market is actually no different from the rural rush. If there is a difference, it is that when the countryside rushes to the market, all the agricultural and sideline products are placed on the stalls, and the people who buy them are also simple villagers. And the stalls in this place are full of thieves or counterfeit goods that I don't know where they came from, and occasionally I encounter a real thing, which is probably from an unknown source.

But these have nothing to do with Li Huan, continue to choose.

Soon, they looked at the three shelves, during which Li Huan also found a few good things, but after getting started, he found that two were fakes, and the other two were real, but they were very average, so he simply asked a price and did not choose to sell.

The fourth shelf is not porcelain, but a dozen small piles of copper coins of various colors.

Seeing this, Li Huan's heart moved, although there is a large amount of copper coins, even in the homes of ordinary rural people, they will more or less dig some copper coins in the ground, this thing is not valuable, but it really represents the rise and fall of historical dynasties. Instead of looking at the porcelain that has little value, it is better to spend time in this stall.

"Mr. Li, you also like copper coins, there are not many fakes of copper coins, but the price of copper coins is not high......" Luo Sheng looked at Li Huan and stopped, and subconsciously said: "And the collection value of copper coins is too low, and the most expensive copper coins are only hundreds of thousands...... If you want to pick a higher collector's value, I recommend porcelain and calligraphy and paintings, let's continue to walk ahead and take a look, maybe we can see something good. ”

"You're wrong, what I choose is not based on value, but on whether it fits in a museum. Li Huan smiled faintly: "It is good to have a national treasure like Yuan Qinghua, but if there is no such rare copper coin, I think it is okay." Well, I even think I should buy all the copper coins here and use them as regular draws...... If you think about it, if my museum is full of high-end collections, what is it about that that kid that I use? Museums are always open to everyone, so we're just going to pick categories. ”

"That's right...... Then I'll help you pick and choose, not to mention, the copper coin is not worth much, but it is indeed the most authentic, just because it is not valuable, so there are few people who imitate it...... It's the best thing to use for children. Luo Sheng suddenly realized and gave Li Huan a thumbs up: "Mr. Li is young and promising, and he really has an active mind." ”
