Chapter 11 Buying and Picking Pearls (1)

Tang Feng nodded secretly, I can't help but say that the gang of people in the underground black market are clever in their play, why are many people reluctant to go to the underground black market, the first thing they consider is security, and they are afraid of being hacked. Nowadays, the underground black market is openly placed in the urban area, and you can take people with you without cash, and the safety factor is doubled, so as to attract rich high-end customers.

The board brush head looked at the time and said to everyone: "Bosses, you can get in the car now and follow the car in front." Then, he said to Tang Feng: "Mr. Tang, I can only send you here, and there will be a period later." ”

Tang Feng asked, "What, aren't you going?"

The board brush head laughed and said, "I'm only responsible for the handover, good luck and farewell." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand at Tang Feng and walked to the elevator, although the board brush head is the boss in the underground black market on the outskirts of Beijing, he is obviously not the core figure.

Tang Feng and Su Qing got into the car, Yue Zheng started the car to keep up with the convoy, Su Qing shook his head and said, "I didn't expect that these people are quite business-minded and know how to keep pace with the times." Tang Feng said secretly, that's because you are outdated.

A convoy of nearly 10 vehicles made a turn and arrived at the Grand Kempinski Hotel in Beijing, one of the top 10 hotels in Europe, and this one in Beijing is a Sino-foreign joint venture.

There has always been a saying in the antique shop, if you don't know how to buy, you don't understand what you buy, which means that those who understand have no money, and those who have rich people don't understand. The poor learn crafts, the rich learn management, and the rich don't know how to do it, but they are the main body of playing collecting, because they can hire experts with high salaries to help them palm their eyes, and the words are palm masters. Of course, there are exceptions to this, Jiang Yuan and Yang Chengming like to go into battle by themselves, the difference is that Jiang Yuan is half a jar of water, and he is basically in a state of playing tickets. And Yang Chengming is a professional collector, and his vision is poisonous enough, otherwise he wouldn't have caught the pointed clay pot that Tang Feng picked up at a glance.

Tang Feng paid attention to it, and most of the people in his companions were carrying palm-eyed masters, which showed that this underground black market transaction was extraordinary.

Tang Feng followed the crowd to a large suite on the top floor of the Kempinski Hotel, which was quite magnificent, with a hall of about 40 square meters. After the door closed, a middle-aged man wearing glasses and looking polite got up and said, "Bosses, please sit casually, let's talk less and start the auction now." ”

Tang Feng had to admire these people, this is an underground black market, they have all caught up with the auction house, and it seems that there is a sense of security here than the auction house. There are only ten people in the underground black market plus middle-aged glasses, and one of them is standing next to middle-aged glasses, he is not amazing, short and thin, and looks very inconspicuous. But Tang Feng has been secretly paying attention to him, Tang Feng was born in a family of tomb robbers, he knows nothing more about tomb robbers, this person has a golden body of tomb robbers. Emaciated, takes up less space, short, and has a great advantage in turning around, this stature has a great advantage. Digging a hole is the primary subject of tomb robbers, the hole can not be too spacious, it is easy to cause a collapse, and not only digging, but also to send the excavated soil out, you have to let a fat man enter, just digging the hole for several times longer than the time to dig back, and may not be able to dig back.

Among the remaining eight people, two strong men have been standing in the hall, the other two are responsible for carrying things, and the remaining four are women, who began to serve tea and water, and it is estimated that they will be responsible for collecting money later.

It makes sense that people in the underground black market would dare to open an auction in a five-star hotel, because the antiques industry is an out-and-out profiteering industry, and this is especially true of the underground black market.

There are three sources of antiques in the underground black market, the first is that they themselves make counterfeit fakes, and there are also fakes in the auction house, not to mention the underground black market. Second, black goods are antiques obtained through improper means, tomb robbers, thefts, and so on. Third, white goods are antiques purchased through normal channels, so why do white goods appear on the black market? In order to evade taxes, ordinary people have to issue invoices when buying antiques in auction houses and antique shops, and an antique can easily cost hundreds of thousands, and the taxes and fees here are frighteningly high. Tax evasion, of course, is a win-win situation, they also earned, the price has also dropped, the loss is the country's taxes, antique private transactions can not be managed at all, as long as the vision is accurate enough, they will choose to trade privately, Tang Feng is a tax evader, he does not need to leave invoices as transaction vouchers.

In the hall of the suite, Tang Feng and the others sat down, and the long round table in the middle of the hall became a temporary exhibition stand. In charge of carrying it were two well-dressed young men, who took out a red disc with a diameter as long as an ordinary person's arm.

Middle-aged glasses introduced: "This is a large plate of red carvings of Western Han lacquerware, and the boss who intends to buy it can come up and taste it." "The boss didn't go up, what went up was a group of palm-eyed masters, and there were not many people involved in the high-end underground black market, and there were no rules for the first inspection and re-inspection. Dare to come out to help others, of course, there is a level, and the reputation of always letting the boss lose money is naturally poor, and if it is bad, it will not be able to get a job. After seeing the lot, these palm-eyed masters returned to their respective bosses and began to mumble about their judgment.

The middle-aged glasses waited until his voice was completely quiet before he said slowly: "The reserve price is 200,000 yuan, everyone can bargain." In the underground black market on the outskirts of Beijing, the maximum reserve price of a special session is only 150,000, and it is 200,000 when it comes up here.

In China, lacquerware appeared as early as the Neolithic Age, and lacquerware refers to everyday utensils, handicrafts, and works of art made by applying lacquer to the surface of various utensils. At that time, the lacquer used was modern lacquer, a natural sap cut from the lacquer tree.

200,000, don't say that Tang Feng doesn't have it, even if he does, he won't buy it. He's here to pick up leaks, not to play collecting, and the price is too close to the actual price. In the end, this lacquerware did not make any waves, and it was sold for 230,000 yuan, and after that, several more lots appeared, but none of them aroused Tang Feng's interest.

Tang Feng didn't want Li Shizhi's things to appear, it was not good if this case was solved too early, and he hadn't picked up the leak yet.

At this time, two young people brought up a landscape figure octagonal wooden box, Tang Feng secretly called bad luck in his heart, what are people afraid of when they go to memorize words, look at the shape of this octagonal box, I don't have to say, Tang Dynasty.

The furniture of the Tang Dynasty is mostly lacquered furniture, which integrates the advantages of wood carving, lacquer carving, gold and silver leveling, gold and silver painting and other processing arts, the furniture at that time is graceful and luxurious, the decoration is fine and gorgeous, and the lacquer decoration is bright and smooth, and the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties are complicated and simple, and there is a clear difference between the natural texture and natural gloss of wood, which can be seen at a glance.

The middle-aged glasses said: "This is the lacquered wood octagonal box in the heyday of the Tang Dynasty, and interested bosses can come up and taste it." ”

When the group of palm-eyed masters had almost seen it, Tang Feng got up and came to the long round table in the hall, and he took the lacquered wood square box in his hand and looked at it over and over again. This lacquered wood box has a lid, which is maroon red and painted with a gardenia pattern. When the lid was lifted, it was double-layered, and Tang Feng took the upper layer, and a pungent musty smell that didn't smell very good came to his face.

The musty smell is not strange, old things, everyone can smell it, but Tang Feng also smelled a faint earthy smell mixed with the musty smell, it's over, the unearthed time will not exceed two months, Li Shizhi's. Su Qing said first, Li Shizhi's things were bought by the police first, and the money was stolen money in the hands of the gang in the underground black market, and it was seized after the case was solved.

It's over, I really want to serve the people today, Tang Feng was depressed, and at this time, he saw something unusual in the box.
