047: Ghost City Organizer

Guangzhou.

Zhou You looked at the row of luxurious and thrilling villas in front of him, and he didn't mention how shocked he was.

Audi, which usually drives with a head and a face, is just a low-end goods here, Mercedes-Benz and BMW are the mainstream here, and I even saw a Bugatti Veyron worth 40 million when I traveled around.

People who can buy cars worth tens of millions and dare to show off all over the streets are definitely not ordinary billionaires. Even jewelry company CEOs like Huang Jianming and Ma Fatzi are inferior.

Coming here, traveling around feeling good about yourself can't help but give birth to a small taste.

Wang Hao calmed down after being shocked, still drove leisurely, looked around and said: "I really can't imagine that there is such a super-rich community in Guangzhou, if it weren't for Sister Man giving us an invitation card, I'm afraid we would have been blocked by the security guards when we came to the door." ”

Zhou You replied: "It's luxurious here, but I always feel like something is missing." ”

Wang Hao smiled: "If you can let me live here, I would be willing to lose an arm or leg." The smallest villa also has one acre, if calculated according to the market price, any villa here will cost 10 million, it is estimated that it is impossible for me to earn it in my life. ”

Zhou You said: "Brother Hao, you and I are still young, and we have a lot of time and energy to work hard. I'm sure you can also appreciate what kind of life I lived a month ago, and what kind of life I live now. ”

Wang Hao was indeed encouraged, and sighed: "Yes, a month ago, you hit walls everywhere, and now you have bought a house and a car, and there are still millions of deposits in the bank that can be squandered at any time." If you continue at this rate, I'm afraid you'll be even more exaggerated than the richest one here. ”

Zhou You smiled, but did not respond.

Speaking of the house, Wang Hao asked: "Also, it was only a day apart yesterday, why did you buy such an old house?

Zhou You replied: "It's just because it's going to be demolished that I just hastily repaired it, otherwise I will definitely start construction on a large scale and make that old mansion a real mansion." ”

Wang Hao reminded with a serious face: "Don't put all your eggs in the same basket." You have also seen the development speed of our city, other cities are developing rapidly, and our city has not made much progress except for better public security, only housing prices have made great progress, housing prices have risen rapidly from 2,000 yuan to 5 or 6,000 yuan now, but the policy has come and the houses cannot be sold. ”

Zhou You understood what Wang Hao meant. He is not saying that he is speculating in real estate, but he is persuading himself not to put all his money in real estate, but to aim outside.

Before traveling, I knew that Wang Hao was extremely dissatisfied with the direct rise in housing prices. Thinking that Wang Hao's small white-collar salary of 6,000 yuan a month can only buy a flat land every month without eating or drinking, and it will take at least ten years to buy a decent house.

You must know that Wang Hao has been promoted, and his monthly salary far exceeds the average salary of less than 2,000 yuan in Mingyuan City. In other words, if you are an ordinary office worker, the situation will be even worse, just ask how the people at the bottom of the society are not angry, how not to be crazy.

"I see. ”

Zhou You knew that Wang Hao was sensitive to this topic, so he naturally wouldn't argue, not to mention that he didn't want to argue.

"We're here!"

Wang Hao suddenly saw the iconic gate that the security guard at the door said, and slowed down the car.

The private antique exchange meeting attended by Zhou You and Wang Hao was held by an old antique expert surnamed Bai. According to Xu Man's description, this old antique expert known as Teacher Bai by insiders is one of the behind-the-scenes organizers of a ghost market in Guangzhou, and has a large number of underground networks, so Xu Man will transfer Teacher Bai's invitation card to Zhou You and Wang Hao in order not to have a negative impact on his family.

"Please stay!"

Zhou You and Wang Hao, who had a lot of thoughts, just got out of the car when they were stopped by a tall man who greeted them.

Wang Hao immediately took out the invitation card and said, "Sister Xu Man asked us to come, this is our invitation card." ”

After the tall man quickly checked the invitation card, he immediately got out of the way and invited: "It turns out that the two are the proud protégés of Old Man Xu, please follow me into the door." ”

Zhou You didn't take a closer look at the other party, he knew that this very strong man was not an ordinary bodyguard, and it could be seen from the demeanor he showed that he was a master who had been trained by blood and fire. If Zhou You and Wang Hao showed a little abnormality, they would definitely be killed by him on the spot.

When he entered the villa, he learned that this teacher Bai was already outrageously rich.

The gate of this villa is a retro-style arched mansion door, which at first glance looks a bit like the mansion of an ancient large landowner, and when you come to the inside, you can only know that not only the outside, but also the inside is also antique, making people feel a strong cultural atmosphere from the inside out.

Seeing this, Zhou You looked up to the image of Teacher Bai.

When I came to the spacious main hall, I saw that more than 20 men and women in different costumes gathered together to form five distinct small groups.

When you get here, it's not all ancient styles, modern high-end electrical appliances, precision machines abound, and you even saw the familiar calcite machine when you traveled around.

Zhou You and Wang Hao's entry did attract the attention of others.

However, everyone is a person with status and status, and they will not point fingers at people at will, at most, they will stop those waiters to find the origin of Zhou You and Wang Hao.

"The Lord is coming. ”

Zhou You saw that Wang Hao was still looking around curiously, and hurriedly reminded him.

Wang Hao passed in a blink of an eye, and saw an old man with white hair but quite spirited slowly coming out under the escort of two bodyguards, which was a bit of a big man's presence. It's just that Zhou You suddenly felt that this Teacher Bai's footsteps were a bit empty, and he was definitely not as energetic as he seemed to be.

As soon as everyone saw Teacher Bai appear, they all quieted down.

Teacher Bai was very refreshing, did not rely on the old and sold the old, and went straight to the point: "It is really an honor for you to participate in this exchange meeting with your face." I believe that everyone has been waiting for a long time, and the old decay is not nonsense, please take a look at these few pieces of Ming ware that have just been collected this year. ”

After speaking, a graceful waiter pushed a special glass cart out.

Zhou You and Wang Hao didn't go over, but glared at each other.

Wang Hao asked softly: "It was a bright weapon from the beginning, isn't this a bit of a bad scenery." And they are all big people with status and status, so isn't it a bit troublesome to buy such an unknown thing with such an identity?"

Generally sensitive people are not very fond of accepting objects of unknown origin, because this will cause them unnecessary trouble. Nowhere is this more evident than in officialdom, where one day someone discovers a stolen antique in your home, your political future is ruined, and those who are really rich don't need such things to embellish, at most they just collect them for fun.

Zhou You learned more than this, and replied: "Ming artifacts don't have to be bought for collection, they can also be sold, and I estimate that the people present are either private collectors or representatives of major auction houses and antique shops." If the person who buys is the terminal seller, then Mr. Bai is the distribution channel, and those who sell the Ming ware are the suppliers. ”

Wang Hao vaguely understood.

There are countless excuses for auction houses, countless reasons for fabricating things that are unknown to the future, and in the end, they can be auctioned in a dignified manner. This gray industry chain is not unique, let alone unique to China, and the top auction houses in the world are the ancestors in this regard. The people have been able to auction the looted things openly, even if the owner protests, they are indifferent. Shameless to this extent, those auction houses in China are nothing compared to one another.

Zhou You looked at the five bright weapons, and his eyes were a little burning.

Wang Hao suddenly thought of Jiang Jun and asked, "Xiaoyou, let's take a few pieces, and then put them for auction after the general clears them for us?"

Zhou You just thought of this.

However, as soon as he thought of Xu Lao's original attitude, his mind cooled down, and he calmly reminded: "Brother Hao, let's not lose big because of small." Mr. Xu is obviously resistant to these, so let's not let him down. ”

Thinking of Teacher Xu, Wang Hao also calmed down.

Zhou You pointed to a jade cicada and said carefully: "Brother Hao, have you seen it, that jade cicada is also a masterpiece of the Hongshan cultural period." It's just that jade cicadas are more common in history, and the shape is relatively simple, so the value is not very high, about 50,000 yuan. If you can collect a few more antiques from Hongshan culture, it is estimated that our store will be able to open a small counter about Hongshan culture. ”

Wang Hao nodded and said, "I also noticed the jade cicada just now, but I prefer the dragon pattern plum bottle, which has a beautiful shape, smooth lines, fine carcass, and is as thin as a cicada's wings." In particular, the glaze is as moist as a pile of grease, and the painting is beautiful, which makes people love it. ”

Zhou You knew that Wang Hao had a soft spot for porcelain, but he had to give Wang Hao a reminder: "Brother Hao, this dragon pattern plum bottle is likely to be the Ming Chenghua Doucai Dragon Pattern Plum Bottle, which can be regarded as a first-class national treasure, and the price is definitely not less than 600,000, even if it is sold for millions, it is possible." ”

Wang Hao laughed awkwardly.

Millions at every turn, unless those large auction houses, antique shops or big collectors have the strength to buy and add value, a small character like Wang Hao who opens a small antique shop may have a helpless ending with a heart but no power.

Wang Hao said in a low voice: "The grade here is too high, it is often hundreds of years old, and it is really not something we can play with." ”

"Well, I believe you also have a certain bottom. ”

Teacher Bai saw that everyone saw the same, and each had their own plans, so he announced: "I believe everyone also knows the rules of the old decay here. If the things that flow out of the old decay are fake, the old decay will definitely pay the full amount, so you can rest assured that you can bid. ”

The people present were obviously acquaintances, and they knew the rules here, so they just nodded at Teacher Bai's words, and they didn't show too much intensity.

"Then we're going to start bidding for the first artifact!"

Teacher Bai didn't care about the calm atmosphere of the scene at all, and as soon as the words fell, a beautiful waiter wearing special gloves slowly opened the top of the glass car, took out the jade cicada and put it on the tray of the second waiter.

The tray is covered with soft silk, but it is not afraid of any wear and tear.

The beautiful waiter, who is by no means twenty years old, paraded in front of everyone with the jade cicada, allowing everyone to watch the appearance and texture of the jade cicada more carefully.

Teacher Bai was very confident and looked at everyone with a smile.

"Sixty thousand!"

After a dignified man directly quoted a price, the scene fell silent.
