Chapter 150: The Stone Turtle

The next day, Meng Zitao went to the place agreed yesterday and met with Yuan Zili, because Meng Zitao didn't want to make trouble, he didn't take Lu Yiqing with him, but asked the branch for a bodyguard, after all, his identity is a rich family, and without a bodyguard to follow him, it is not very in line with his identity, so he can't drag the money himself.

On the way to the location of the black market, Yuan Zili told Meng Zitao that the owner of the black market was nicknamed Little Pony King, and the reason why he got this nickname came from the old saying "If you don't give you a little bit of power, you don't know how many eyes Ma Wang Ye has", which means nothing more than that he is very powerful.

In fact, Pony King is indeed the same as his nickname, in the mountain city, basically no one dares to mess with him, but usually he is very low-key, and he will not oppress people for no reason, and his reputation is good.

Yuan Zili introduced Pony King in detail with one meaning, so that Meng Zitao had better not have too much contact with Pony King, otherwise it would be harmful and useless. In addition, Yuan Zili was also worried that they would have a conflict and cross the river to fight the head snake, although he didn't know who would lose and who won, he would definitely not have any good fruit to eat.

Meng Zitao said with a smile that he was only here for Fang Wei, and he had no interest in knowing the Pony King, so that Yuan Zili could rest assured.

Soon, the car came to a scenic villa complex in the suburbs, passed the doorman's careful inspection, drove into the entrance, and finally stopped at the door of a villa.

This villa is very large, larger than Meng Zitao's villa in Jinling, the decoration here belongs to the modern pastoral style, very tasteful, full of natural atmosphere, and also in line with the character of the pony king introduced by Yuan Zili, luxurious but low-key.

Yuan Zili handed over the car to the staff who specially parked it, and walked towards the door of the villa with the two of them.

At the door of the villa, there were security guards to check, because Yuan Zili was an acquaintance and had an invitation, so he passed without much trouble.

After that, they followed a graceful waiter to a room in the villa.

At this time, there were already some guests sitting in the room, and when they saw Yuan Zili coming in, some people got up to greet him.

Yuan Zili also responded, but everyone didn't talk much, even if the Pony King's territory was notoriously safe, but today was a black market auction after all, and everyone would subconsciously avoid contact.

Yuan Zili took Meng Zitao and the bodyguard to sit on a sofa, and the bodyguard put the trolley suitcase containing cash in front of him to protect it.

This is actually similar to the black market that Meng Zitao has experienced before, except that this is the territory of the Pony King, which is more polite, and there are some pastries and fruits on the coffee table in front of him.

It's just that the people who come here are all here to buy their favorite treasures, but few people will be interested in these things on the coffee table.

A few more people came in, and after a while, a middle-aged man in an old cloth shirt and old cloth shoes walked in and stood in the center of the hall. As soon as he entered, the waiter closed the door to the room.

The middle-aged man was the pony king that Yuan Zili said, and he said some polite words with a smile on his face: "...... Okay, I won't say more nonsense, let's start bidding. ”

With that, the two staff members place a piece of porcelain on the table next to Pony.

"Everyone, this is a shallow Jiangshan Zun made by Cheng Men, people who are familiar with it naturally know who Cheng Men is, if you are interested, you can come forward and take a look. Pony pointed to the porcelain and smiled at the group.

Due to the short distance, Mencius could see the details of the porcelain without going up.

It has been more than 100 years now, coupled with the light and elegant color, and it is easy to fade over time, so there are very few preserved light colored porcelain, and the light color artists are different from the previous generation of porcelain craftsmen, the biggest difference is that they all have a variety of cultivation, good at a variety of painting disciplines, most of them can be good at poetry and calligraphy, so the artistic level of the creation of light color porcelain is relatively high.

Some people say that scarcity is expensive, and if the level of art is relatively high, then the price will definitely rise, and the same is true for the performance in the auction market.

In 1999, the first auction of Guardian porcelain was made, and in 2000, a landscape painting porcelain plate from Chengmen was sold for only 15,000 yuan. In the following 10 years, the price of light color gradually rose, to about 2006, a piece of Chengmen light color landscape porcelain plate transaction price is less than 100,000 yuan; in 2009, China Guardian launched Cheng Men, Wang Shaowei, Jin Pinqing created three pieces of landscape flowers and birds light color porcelain plate, the starting price is 350,000 yuan, since then, light color porcelain began to appear a surprising upward trend.

Now is the period when the price of light color porcelain is rising, and some people are very interested in the light color porcelain on the table and have come forward to check it out.

However, Meng Zitao did not think so, although this light color porcelain is indeed an old object, but light color porcelain because of the process reasons, the color on it will fall down with the passage of time, without exception, don't look at the price of light color porcelain has risen rapidly over the years, and the hype is only for a while, when someone bought a light color porcelain and found that it was stored for a few years, it was found that the color fell a lot, can it still be sold?

After a while, everyone returned to their seats and began to bid, and finally the pale colored porcelain was sold for 100,000 yuan.

After the first piece of porcelain was auctioned, several more pieces of porcelain were sold. However, during the period, Meng Zitao did not make a move, not that these porcelains were wrong, but the quality was a little unsatisfactory, and the transaction price was not cheap. The things on the black market are more or less problematic, and they spend a lot of money to buy them, Meng Zitao is not stupid.

It's just that this pony king does have some strength, and compared to other black markets, at least there hasn't been a fake until now, which is especially rare.

Next, it's not porcelain, but a Western sword.

I listened to the introduction of the pony king: "This is a very precious Western sword, the sword body is chiseled, the two sides are not bladed, the tip of the sword is sharp, indicating that this kind of sword is mainly assassination, the gauntlet is gilded and leaf-shaped, with marks cast on it, and the scabbard is also inlaid with three gilt emblem ornaments, and the sword handle is made of copper and leather winding, which is still intact and quite rare." If you like to collect Western items, don't miss this opportunity. ”

Meng Zitao had no interest in collecting Western swords, not to mention, this sword gave him a feeling that was not very comfortable, so he sat in his seat and used his ability once, but the result was a little surprising, because this sword actually had a thick layer of evil energy, if someone often played with this Western sword, there would definitely be problems with his body.

At this time, Meng Zitao noticed that Yuan Zili had come back with a happy face, so he asked in a low voice, "Are you interested in this Western sword?"

Yuan Zili did not hide it: "Yes, one of my customers likes to collect such utensils the most, and I am going to buy them and give them to him." ”

Meng Zitao said: "I suggest you don't buy it. ”

"Is there something wrong with it?" said Yuan Zili in surprise.

Meng Zitao said: "The sword is real, but this is a murder weapon. ”

Yuan Zili didn't quite understand, of course the sword was a murder weapon.

Meng Zitao said: "When I say murder weapon, I am referring to Feng Shui, and if my judgment is not wrong, it is not a good thing to keep this sword at home." ”

"Uh......" Yuan Zili was stunned, he didn't expect that Meng Zitao would actually give such a result, he believed in feng shui, but how old is Meng Zitao, it is already incredible to be able to make achievements in antiques, if feng shui is also very powerful, isn't it a demon?

Meng Zitao saw that Yuan Zili didn't believe it very much, and he didn't persuade him much, the reason why he reminded it was just because of Yuan Zili's help, if you don't believe it, there is no way, you can't force Yuan Zili not to buy it.

At the beginning of the auction, several people competed for this Western sword, including Yuan Zili, and after seven rounds, only he and a thirty-five or sixteen young man not far away remained, and in the end, the Western sword was bought by the young man for 150,000 yuan.

Meng Zitao shook his head secretly, is this person stupid, in his eyes, a Western sword of only fifty or sixty thousand yuan, actually quoted such a high price, of course, he also saw that this price should be influenced by Yuan Zili.

Yuan Zili didn't fight for the Western sword, and his face was a little not good-looking.

Meng Zitao asked him, "Have you had a holiday with him?"

Yuan Zili didn't say much: "There have been contradictions before. ”

Meng Zitao's heart moved: "The reason why he took this Western sword can't be the same as yours, right?"

Yuan Zili nodded and said, "Eighty percent is the same, otherwise he wouldn't have spent such a big price." ”

Meng Zitao smiled slightly: "As the old saying goes, if you lose your horse, you don't know if you don't take this Western sword, which is also a good thing for you." ”

Yuan immediately thought of what Meng Zitao had just said: "Teacher Meng, could it be that this sword will really have a bad impact on people?"

Meng Zitao smiled slightly: "Just use time to prove whether what I said is right." ”

Yuan Zili was a little embarrassed: "Teacher Meng, I'm sorry, it's not that I don't believe you, it's just that I ......"

Meng Zitao smiled and waved his hand: "No need to explain, I can understand your thoughts, let's continue to read." ”

After two ordinary lots in a row, the staff took a stone turtle up, this stone turtle is made of unknown materials, the whole body is gray, it should be a raw pit vessel, it looks very ordinary.

Meng Zitao didn't care much about it originally, but now that he has developed a habit, even if it is not good, he will use his ability, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, they are still meat.

However, the result given by the ability surprised Meng Zitao, this stone turtle, which was only a little bigger than a palm and looked inconspicuous, actually had a huge amount of aura in his body, and the amount was simply amazing, and a huge amount of aura poured into his body, almost scaring him out.

Fortunately, Meng Zitao's psychological quality is extremely high, and his expression only changed for a moment, and then returned to normal.

Because this stone turtle was so inconspicuous, there were not many people competing for it, and in the end Meng Zitao bought it at a very low price.
