Chapter 641: Dubai Black Market

……

There is no shortage of money and Al Nahyan, who also loves art collecting, has a large collection of art at his home in Abu Dhabi. Moreover, his collection is not the same as Wang Zheng's. Wang Zheng was trapped in the task of the Shennong System Museum, and the collection should be both fine and quantitative. And Al Nahyan's collection, one is for his own preference, and the other is also an investment, so each of his collections is worth a lot.

"I remember that there was a zodiac animal head from China in your collection, and to Chinese your enthusiasm for the animal head of the Old Summer Palace, I believe that the 'Wang' will be happy to attend the appointment. ”

"Why am I not you? You also have a lot of valuable art. Moreover, I don't want Shennong Technology's shares alone!" said Al Nahyan dissatisfied.

"Of course, I also have to prepare gifts. In fact, I was ready for it!"

"What?"

"A Pablo Picasso painting 'Boy with a Pipe'!"

"The Boy with the Pipe? I remember you bought it the year before last for $135 million from that greedy German Jewish businessman Georg, and you were really willing to give it away?"

"Of course not. Since the 'Wang' likes Pablo Picasso's works, I can only win more favors by giving this one...... Al Nahyan, no matter how good a work of art is, it is just a work of art. Appreciation is appreciation, value preservation is value preservation, but art is not equal to the future, and it cannot replace a company with endless potential. In an era of depleted oil resources and the rise of alternative energy sources such as solar, wind and nuclear power, we will not have much hope for the future of Abu Dhabi and Dubai. ”

After a long silence, "So you chose the 'king' as an ally?"

"Yes, he's the most amazing guy I've ever met. I'm sure that if I can become a close friend with him, it will be my greatest treasure!"

"I see! I'll go back and prepare for the artwork. Also, I'll do a more detailed investigation about him. If Wang Zheng really has unlimited potential as you say, I will cooperate with you in everything?"

"Okay, I'll wait for your news!" ......

After hearing no more meaningful conversations, Wang Zheng cut off the global communication terminal. After a quiet contemplation for a while, he slowly shook his head. It was more or less as he had guessed, but he was afraid he was going to disappoint Hamdan and Al Nahyan. Not to mention a snake head in the Old Summer Palace, even if he put all the twelve beast heads of the Old Summer Palace in front of him, plus all the paintings of Pablo Picasso, he will not let go if he doesn't want to let go.

"Boss!"

Turning around, he looked at Wang Qian and Yuan Ba with respectful expressions, "Oh, you're back?"

"Yes, it's been back for a while. Seeing that the boss is busy, it doesn't bother you!"

Nodding, Wang Zheng turned around and walked to the edge of the sofa in the living room, waved Wang Qian, and after they sat down with him, "How is the situation, have you figured it out?"

"It's been figured out!"

"Tell me about it!"

"Yes!" Wang Qian nodded, "Dubai's black market is located in Al Dubai in the northwest, and the main body is a 32-story office building, which is an office area, and there are five-story podiums on both sides, mainly exhibition areas. The things traded are very miscellaneous, including stolen artworks, arms, slaves ~ subordinates and drugs ~ goods, and even many large merchants in it still accept orders. Dubai's black market is a comprehensive black market where you can buy almost anything for as long as you pay for it. ”

"In addition, every Friday, there is a large auction held in the auction hall on the fifth floor of the black market. Moreover, they set a theme for each auction. If the subject is women, then there will be beauties from all over the world, in yellow, white and black, for you to choose from, as long as you can afford the price. If it is an armament, as long as it is not an F22 or J20 that is strictly kept secret by various countries, there will be arms on it. Other themes include art, drugs~, machinery and equipment, confidential information, rare animals and plants, yachts, luxury cars, real estate, etc., as long as there is something valuable, it will appear in a certain theme auction! Moreover, because Dubai is a tourist destination, there are many rich people, so every auction is unprecedented. Even the economic crisis has not dampened its heat. Every year, the Dubai royal family can get more than $5 billion in money from the black market alone. ”

Wang Zheng nodded clearly, "No wonder the black market in Dubai has almost become public, it turns out that it is all 'moving money'!"

After sighing, Wang Zheng didn't care whether it was illegal or not. It's none of his business, he never cares.

"When is the next black market?"

"Three days later!"

"What about the subject?"

"Arms. Mainly individual weapons and tanks!"

"Where did all these lots come from?"

"Some are provided by merchants in the black market, some are provided by foreign military organizations, and even individuals! However, they don't care about the source, as long as your stuff is valuable, and then pay a $50,000 processing fee, you can participate in the auction. However, after the things are auctioned off, the black market management will take a 10% commission!"

nodded clearly, and after a half-mutter, "Remember to remind me in three days." I'm going to see for myself how this black market auction works, and how it's different from an ordinary auction!"

"Yes!"

Three days doesn't sound like a short time, but when it really passes, it's gone almost in the blink of an eye. During these three days, Hamdan and Al Nahyan did not look for Wang Zheng again, but every morning and evening, Hamdan would have a routine greeting. Wang Zheng was also happy that they didn't bother him. Leisurely, he was advancing the plan he had already set step by step. While waiting for the arrival of the Friday auction on the Dubai Black Market.

Of course, before the auction began, Wang Zheng had been to the black market more than once. But every time I entered, I was shocked by its more than 200,000 square meters of commercial area, as well as thousands of display cases of different sizes, and a dazzling array of goods.

For Wang Zheng from Huaxia, which strictly prohibits guns and prohibits drugs, when he sees all kinds of light and heavy weapons and various types of drugs~ products, which are placed on the shelves like ordinary commodities for others to choose, it is a serious impact on the old world view.

But that's not the worst of all. When some openly buying~selling~ officials, and even ordering infants and young children, as well as billboards that satisfy the various perverted hobbies of the rich, appear in front of Wang Zheng, you will know how far human nature can be distorted in a place where there are no rules.

In order to avoid sinking into it himself, every time he comes to the black market, he never goes to these perverted ~ stores. In Wang Zheng's heart, self-interest is definitely not the same as unprincipled indulgence.

"Boss, the formalities have been completed!

After taking the white auction card handed over by Wang Gan, after briefly looking at the Arabic numerals '37' on both sides, he tightened the mask on his face, and arranged the black robe on his body by the way.

"Let's go!"

greeted Wang Qian and Yuan Ba, who were dressed in the same way, and took the elevator to the fifth floor. Following the sign next to it, it didn't take long to come to a hall with a size of 3,000 square meters, French decoration, and yellow and white falling to look splendid. The hall is domed with elaborate paintings on the top, as well as ornate chandeliers. In addition, the entire auction hall is a duplex structure, and the auction table is located in the center of the whole hall.

Around the auction table, which is 10 meters in diameter, separate round tables are placed radially. Wang Zheng didn't count them in detail, but at first glance, there were almost more than 100 tables.

Around each table sat the same face masks and black robes as the guests who participated in the auction.

"Boss, our seat is on the second floor!" Wang Gan said.

Nodding and taking a quick look around, Wang Zheng came to the second floor from the stairs next to him. Compared to the large courtyard on the first floor, the private room on the second floor is obviously more stylish and confidential. Of course, the price is also expensive, and each private room sells for $200,000. And only for a few hours at the auction.

In order to ensure that enough people attend the auction, there is no annual subscription service in each box. If you want a more comfortable service, you need to order in advance.

"What are we?"

"No. 8!" Wang Gan said.

"It's quite auspicious!" Wang Zheng nodded, and after finding the No. 8 box, he pushed the door and walked in.

In a room of about 25 square meters, in addition to the entrance door, the two wallpaper walls on the left and right are the hollow parts facing the auction hall opposite.

Because the private room is small, there is no more furniture or furnishings in the room, except for a three-seat sofa on the right-hand wall, a low poplar table on the carpet, a wall-mounted TV on the left wall, and a limited number of plants in the corner.

After a brief look, Wang Zheng walked through the private room, walked to the hollow window, lifted the beaded curtain that hung down, and looked down twice.

The view is not bad, standing here, everything that happens on the auction table downstairs can be seen. In addition, on the shelf on one side of the windowsill, there are two ZEISS telescopes. Wang Zheng picked one up casually and tried it, the multiples were well adjusted, and from here, anything on the auction table could be seen clearly.

At this time, Wang Qian had already turned on the wall-mounted TV next to him, and the contents of it were still on the auction table. However, it was not from a top-down angle of the room where Wang Zheng was, but from a level perspective.

After putting down the binoculars and briefly looking at the picture in the wall-mounted TV, Wang Zheng took the iPad handed over by Wang Gan.

The content in the iPad is the same as on the TV, but it still acts more as a 'sign'. As soon as the auction starts, write your price on your iPad, and the information will be automatically transmitted to the large display in the middle of the auction table, avoiding the hassle of holding up the sign. 74
