Chapter 063: Counterattack
In the underground library of the Pastoral Book Bar, Liu Xing hid at the door of the secret room, paying close attention to the situation in the room.
The whole secret room is about 30 square meters, although the sparrow is small, it is full of organs, and there are many things in the room that are dazzling: books, clothes, shoes and socks, antiques, famous watches, mobile phones, calligraphy and paintings, gold, electrical appliances, sporting goods, theft tools......
There are almost 400 things in total, large and small.
Liu Xing basically understood that all the things in this secret room were stolen goods, all of which were stolen from all over the country by Tian Xiaoyi for more than ten years, which could be regarded as Tian Xiaoyi's hard work.
Tian Xiaoyi was about to flee from Tianhai City today, so he naturally wanted to take these things with him.
At this time, Tian Xiaoyi was commanding more than a dozen of his subordinates to pack up the stolen goods to be taken away.
"Xiao Tian, don't you take this antique bronze book vase with you?" Zhong Shouyuan asked puzzledly, "This vase is from the Southern Dynasty period, and it is worth millions!"
Tian Xiaoyi said: "This copper book vase was stolen from the Tianhai City Museum five years ago, and it is too easy to have an accident, so I won't take it away." ”
Zhong Shouyuan pointed to the bookshelf: "These ancient books must be taken away, right?"
Tian Xiaoyi shook his head: "These books were stolen from the Nanzhou City Book Tomb Exhibition four years ago, and they will definitely be recognized if they are brought out." Don't want it all, be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years. ”
Zhong Shouyuan was speechless for a while, and pointed to another thing in the secret room: "This "Horse Traveling Sky View Sea Chart" will not be taken away, right?"
"I want to take it away, but this painting was stolen from the Dongning Archaeological Research Institute, and now the police are still tracking, didn't I take it out to find death?" Tian Xiaoyi reminded, "Now the Reading Alliance has suspected that there is a coffin buried under the Novel Street, and has strengthened the vigilance of the Novel Street, the search is very strict, and the police force has been strengthened by at least 20 times!"
"20 times?" Zhong Shouyuan frowned, "Is it so exaggerated?"
Tian Xiaoyi's face was a little more serious, and he said solemnly: "Old Zhong, it's not an exaggeration at all, you don't have a fluke mentality." I had just come in a big truck, and the compartment was empty, but when I passed through the security checkpoint on Novel Street, I was inspected for half an hour, from the compartment to the bottom of the car, and even the tires were checked, leaving no dead ends. If I were to get all this stolen goods out of the secret room now, wouldn't it be the same as sending myself to prison?"
Zhong Shouyuan's face showed a look of horror, and he couldn't imagine that the situation was so serious: "Since the police are so strict, how can you carry these things away tonight?"
"I just brought a few things that I could take away, and I didn't want all the other things, so I just took it as a way to save my life!"
After speaking, Tian Xiaoyi continued to select the items that could be taken away in the secret room, including a computer, seven pieces of gold, nine famous calligraphy and paintings, more than a dozen famous watches, a bunch of brand-name bags, jewelry, etc., a total of more than 80 pieces.
Only about a fifth of the contents of the chamber were removed.
After picking out the things, more than a dozen subordinates moved the things out of the secret room, and Tian Xiaoyi and Zhong Shouyuan also walked out, closed the entrance to the secret room, and prepared to leave the underground library.
"Old Zhong, I'll go first. Tian Xiaoyi specially reminded, "You sell the Pastoral Book Bar as soon as possible, and leave the novel street quickly, this is not a place to stay for a long time." As for what's under the ground of the book bar, just throw it here, it's important to save your life. ”
Zhong Shouyuan's old face showed an extremely complicated expression, but in the end he nodded slightly.
After that, they walked out of the underground library with their things together.
After everyone left, Liu Xing, who was hiding in the last row of bookshelves, swept his body, crossed a distance of more than ten meters, and fell to the door of the secret room. Pushing open the large red bookshelf in the corner, he found the white number buttons, and then entered the password for the secret room.
He had just seen Zhong Shouyuan enter the password once, and secretly wrote it down.
Backbite!
With a soft sound, cracks appeared in the wall in front of him again, and the entrance to the chamber reopened.
Liu Xing walked into the secret room and scanned it, there were more than 300 stolen goods in the secret room, including dozens of ancient books and star novels, but there was no coffin he was looking for.
This chamber is located in the underground vault, about 8 meters above the ground, while the coffin is located 11 meters underground, which means that the coffin should be about 3 meters below the chamber.
Liu Xing decided to probe again.
Take out the coffin detection stick from your waist, insert it into the floor of the secret room, press the switch, and after the detection stick is activated, the ultra-magnetic micro-nano wireless wave emits out and begins to propagate in the direction of the underground of the secret room.
0.5 m ...... 1 meter ...... 1.5 m ...... 2 m ......
"Dididi!"
When the wireless wave penetrated to a position 3 meters below the secret room, the detection stick suddenly sounded an alarm!
The micro LCD screen displays the word "3"!
"The coffin is really under the secret room!"
Liu Xing was surprised and delighted in his heart, the coffin was buried about 3 meters under the ground of the secret room, and it was already close at hand.
This secret room is the territory of the Pastoral Book Bar, and it is inconvenient for Liu Xing to dig for the time being, not to mention that he has no tools in his hand.
Judging from the current situation, Zhong Shouyuan should soon transfer the pastoral book bar. If he can buy the book bar, Liu Xing can slowly dig the book coffin in the secret room of the underground warehouse.
"You have to find a way to buy the pastoral book. ”
Liu Xing secretly made a decision in his heart, this pastoral book bar is one of the top ten book bars in Novel Street, although the location is not too good, but the transfer price will definitely not be low.
It is conservatively estimated that the transfer price of the pastoral bookstore is at least 2 million yuan, and if the collection of books in the bookstore is added, it will exceed this price.
Liu Xing now has 900,000 yuan in his hand, and if he really wants to buy Pastoral Book, he needs to raise at least another 1.1 million, and if he is a little more safe, he needs to raise more than 1.5 million.
"Where do you get all this money?"
Liu Xing frowned slightly, this is not a small amount, looked at the time, it was already 3 o'clock in the morning, and decided to go home first, and then slowly figure out a way to raise money. put away the coffin probe stick, his body flashed, turned into a black shadow, and quickly left the secret room.
In a few moments, he came to the door of the pastoral book shop.
At this time, Tian Xiaoyi was loading more than 80 pieces of stolen goods onto a large truck.
"Strange, what about my 8 dogs?" When he finished loading, Tian Xiaoyi suddenly found that all the eight dogs he brought were gone, and he was nowhere to be found.
"Brother Tian, it can't be snatched away by the Black Shadow Man, right?" reminded the fat man driving the truck.
Hearing this, Tian Xiaoyi's heart couldn't help but tighten, he couldn't imagine that this black shadow man was so greedy and wanted to rob everything. The first time he snatched his coffin, the second time he snatched his coffin detector stick, and tonight even eight big dogs were taken away.
"Fatty, hurry up and drive!"
Tian Xiaoyi immediately jumped into the truck and decided to flee Tianhai City immediately, if he didn't leave, maybe even his pants would be stripped naked by the Black Shadow Man.
While the red truck was heading north, Liu Xing's figure was speeding in the opposite direction, rushing to his home......
……
The next day, the Pastoral Book Bar launched a discount promotion. With the promotion going on, the business of the Pastoral Book Bar boomed, selling more than 7,000 books in one day.
Two weeks later, ninety percent of the books in the Pastoral Book Bar had been sold, and Zhong Shouyuan put up a sign saying "Book Bar Transfer". When the news of the transfer spread, several booksellers on Novel Street became interested.
Since there were more than 20 booksellers who wanted to take over the pastoral bookstore, Zhong Shouyuan decided to transfer the bookstore in the form of an auction.
In the afternoon of the same day, 27 booksellers gathered at the Novel Street Auction House to participate in the auction of the Pastoral Book Bar, including Liu Xing.
After entering the auction hall, Liu Xing chose a seat in the middle of the first row and sat down.
"Why is this kid Liu Xing here?" Cai Fugui, who was sitting in the third row, said puzzledly, "Does this kid also want to bid for pastoral books?"
Jin Abiao, who was sitting next to him, said: "When I just came in, I saw Liu Xing filling out the application materials at the front desk. ”
Cai Fugui said with a smile: "This kid doesn't think that he can buy anything if he makes a little money, right?" Although the two sets of novels "Detective Wang Nan" and "Detective Wang Nan's Strange Case of the Condor Book Coffin" are selling well, Liu Xing will earn 1 million if he dies, does he think that this money can buy an idyllic book? The price of the idyllic book bar should be about 2.2 million. ”
"I also find it strange that Liu Xing can't have so much money. Jin Abiao looked at Liu Xing, who was sitting in the first row, and said, "However, Liu Xing looks very calm and seems to be very confident. ”
"People who have problems with their brains have confidence in everything. Cai Fugui smiled playfully.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction will begin shortly. ”
At this time, the host's voice sounded at the auction site, "The pastoral bookstore has two floors and an underground bookstore, with a total area of 1,000 square meters. Today, in addition to the auction of the operating ownership of the book bar, it also includes the tables, chairs, bookshelves, furniture, reading equipment, electrical appliances and more than 1,000 books remaining in the book bar. According to the assessment of the expert group, the auction reserve price of the Pastoral Book Bar is 1.5 million, with a price increase of at least 50,000 yuan each time, and the bidding officially begins. ”
"1.6 million!"
"1.75 million!"
"1.8 million!"
……
As soon as the auction began, booksellers made a move, and the auction price rose round by round, and soon exceeded 2 million.
The competitive atmosphere at the scene was even more tragic than imagined, and many people seemed to be bound to win. As prices continue to rise, some booksellers have chosen to give up.
When the price came to 2.1 million, half of the 27 booksellers chose to give up;
When the price came to 2.3 million, there were only 6 bidders left;
When the price came to 2.5 million, there were only 2 bidders left.
One is Guo Meiyu, the proprietress of Meijiayang Bookstore, and the other is Cai Fugui, the owner of Fugui Bookstore.
"2.55 million. Guo Meiyu pursed her red lips.
When she shouted out this price, many booksellers at the scene shook their heads, this price was already 70% higher than the reserve price, which was a bit inflated. If the price is increased further, it will be difficult to get back the cost.
"2.6 million!"
Cai Fugui's brows tightened slightly, this price was far higher than expected, but he still didn't want to give up. I missed the opportunity of Caiyun Bookstore last time, and after waiting for more than half a year, I finally waited for the Pastoral Book Bar again, and Cai Fugui didn't want to miss the opportunity again.
"2.65 million. ”
When everyone thought that the auction was over, Guo Meiyu quietly increased the price again.
"2.7 million!"
Cai Fugui's eyes showed a fierce look.
"2.75 million. ”
After a moment of hesitation, Guo Meiyu shouted out a new bidding price.
Cai Fugui's face suddenly became a little more dignified, gritted his teeth, and decided to fight again.
"2.8 million!"
When this price was shouted, Cai Fugui's face turned slightly red, which was already the highest price he could come up with at present. Recently, Nirvana Book Bar is in urgent need of liquidity, and taking out 2.8 million is already his limit!
"I give up. Guo Meiyu shook her head gently, looking helpless, she had done her best.
Cai Fugui breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally the rain was clear, and his fat face finally showed a hint of joy.
"Boss Jin, congratulations, you have successfully taken over the pastoral book. Jin Abiao congratulated in a low voice.
Cai Fugui smiled, somewhat proud, swept his eyes, pointed to the first row of seats, and said, "Director Jin, I'm not wrong, Liu Xing didn't shout the price once today, obviously he has no money in his pocket." This kid is really thick-skinned, since he has no money, he dares to sit in such a conspicuous position in the first row......"
"3 million!"
Cai Fugui was just halfway through his words, when a voice suddenly sounded in the hall.
All the booksellers turned their heads one after another, looked towards the middle of the first row, and found that the person who raised the price was a young man, none other than Liu Xing.
