"Underground auctions? What are the main auctions, and are they of a high standard? ”

"The specifications are not very high, mainly to auction some black goods that have just been unearthed! After all, those things come from unknown sources, and people have to pay attention to some when they sell them, otherwise those who specialize in digging holes in kilns won't have to eat! ”

"Oh, the black goods you said mean from underground, there won't be a problem, yo, it's not worth it to get into some unnecessary trouble because of this!" Xu Yinglong said.

"Hehe, this can be assured! The organizers were more worried about getting into trouble than we were buyers, so the people who went to the auction were people they trusted. Also, when you go in, everyone is wearing a mask, and no one will know who you are. Xiao Ruofeng said with a smile.

"In that case, let's go and see it together!" Xu Yinglong said with a smile.

Xiao Ruofeng immediately explained a few words to his wife and asked her to go back with her two children, while he took Xu Yinglong, Cai Yong and others to the auction site.

The group of four people left the ghost market, got out of the valley, and then went down the mountain.

The difference between an underground auction and a regular auction is that the place is very secluded and the time is uncertain. It's not hard to understand that the place is hidden, after all, the things sold at the auction are not the right way, and the hidden point can reduce a lot of unnecessary trouble. According to Xiao Ruofeng, the previous times were held in the suburbs of Rongcheng or in the countryside, and this time is no exception, the place where the auction is held is half an hour away from Qingcheng Mountain, and the most important thing is that this kind of underground auction is very strictly managed, and once you miss the time, you will not be allowed to enter. There are a few other rules to follow.

The uncertain time means that the time of the event is not fixed, which has something to do with the harvest of the captains who touched the gold, sometimes they may dig several large graves in a month. In this way, the auction will be held much more frequently. But most of the time, you may not be able to encounter a large tomb in a few months, and it may only be held once a year.

But no matter how often it is held, the organizer of the auction will follow the principle that things can be bought indiscriminately, but people cannot be indiscriminately invited. All people who participate in the auction are strictly screened by the organizer and then invited by posting, and generally not acquaintances.

Later, as the scale grew. A certain number of places are given according to the amount of money spent by guests, and guests are allowed to bring acquaintances to participate together to expand the source of customers.

Descended the mountain. Xiao Ruofeng picked up a Bentley in the parking lot at the bottom of the mountain, and then drove Xu Yinglong and others straight to the destination.

The location was indeed hidden enough, the car went out of Qingchengshan Town, and after driving on the asphalt road for more than ten minutes, it turned onto a country road. There are 7 or 8 forks in the road. Then he turned into a jungle. Such a hidden place, without the guidance of familiar people, ordinary people would not be able to find this place. What suburbs and countryside, this is clearly a wilderness and mountain forest.

The car was stopped outside the forest, and when he got out of the car, Xu Yinglong found that there were cars parked all around, and they were all luxury cars, including Rolls-Royce and Bentley.

When you get off the bus. Xiao Ruofeng took out a mountaineering bag from the trunk of the car, took out a few cartoon masks from it and handed them to Xu Yinglong. "These people are ghosts in the dark, the seller is, and so is the buyer, so it's best not to show your true face here," he said. ”

Xu Yinglong and the others took the mask and looked at it, Tang Seng, Sun Monkey, Zhu Bajie, and Xiao Ruofeng was holding a sand monk in his hand. handed Zhu Bajie and Sun Monkey to Cai Yong and Fang Xiaoba, while Xu Yinglong put Tang Sanzang's plastic mask on his face.

Once here, everything like mobile phones and cameras has to be handed in, and the only things you can bring are cash and bank cards. There are three security checks along the way, which shows that the security is really good.

After tossing and turning for more than half an hour, Xu Yinglong and the others finally came to an elegant valley, which was the final location for the underground auction.

The zhōngyāng in the valley was a huge tent surrounded by bodyguards, each with a bulging waist, and he could guess anything without saying anything. In addition, Xu Yinglong also found that there were many thugs in ambush in the jungle two kilometers north and south of the tent. Compared with these black-clothed thugs in the tent, those people in the jungle are much better equipped, and Xu Yinglong even found a large-caliber famous sniper.

The most important thing is that the guns of those people are all aimed at the road in and out of the valley, which is equivalent to blocking the road in and out of the mountain pass, and it is impossible for ordinary people to leave here safely without the consent of those people.

Outside the tent, Xu Yinglong sensed the aura of many martial artists, although these people's cultivation ranged from high to low, but the aura could not be concealed.

When entering the tent, Xiao Ruofeng showed a black-colored card to those black-clothed thugs, and then the expressions of those black-clothed people suddenly became respectful, not only did they search their bodies like others, but even Xu Yinglong and others received additional courtesy, and they were not searched.

After entering the tent, Xu Yinglong found that there was a cave here, the whole tent was more than 200 square meters, the lights were brilliant, there was a high platform of about one meter in the middle, and there were rows of chairs scattered around. However, there are not many people inside, and there are only about thirty people including Xu Yinglong and others.

Seeing Xiao Ruofeng walking in with Xu Yinglong and others, a young woman with still charm came over and greeted her: "Thank you Mr. Xiao for coming to enjoy your face, please, the auction is about to start." ”

After finding a relatively forward position and sitting down, Xiao Ruofeng whispered to Xu Yinglong: "Brother Xu, wait a while, the auction will start to see anything you like, and you will bid directly, but be careful not to make any comments on things." In this place, it all depends on eyesight, and both sides are willing to fight and suffer, fair and just. If you like it, you can't pick it up, but if you see it badly, it's a real eye-catcher. ”

"Hmmm! Got it, what is the payment method here, cash transaction or transfer transaction? Xu Yinglong asked.

"It's usually a transfer transaction, and cash is very risky. Regardless of whether it is true or false, it is easy to have an accident, or a bank transfer is more pleasant. Xiao Ruofeng replied.

"That's fine"

What Xu Yinglong meant by saying this was that he didn't have much cash in his hand, and he was completely unprepared in advance, and if he traded with cash, he might be in vain today.

The auction soon began, and a middle-aged man in his thirties walked to the rostrum in the middle of the tent and said loudly: "Thank you friends for coming to this auction, it's still the old rule, it's all up to your eyesight, pick up the omission, congratulations, you can't complain about others, and you can't ask where things come from, and you can't ask for the seller's information." What is photographed is paid immediately and cannot be reversed. Now let's get out of our first treasure of the day. ”

I saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl bring a plate to the exhibit table next to the rostrum, then lifted the end plate, took out a copper coin from it and gently put it on the table.

"This is a mother coin in the Guangxu period of the Qing Dynasty, there is very little stock in the world, the reserve price is 50,000 yuan, and the price increase shall not be less than 5,000 each time, and the bidding will start now!" The middle-aged auctioneer said.

Unlike Xu Yinglong's imagination, people's enthusiasm for bidding does not seem to be high, and no one even shouts the price.

"Brother Xiao, what is this mother's money, which can be sold for 50,000 Huaxia coins?" Xu Yinglong asked.

In his opinion, the plate was just an ordinary Chinese copper coin, and there was nothing special about it.

Xiao Ruofeng said in a low voice: "Mother money is actually the model money, and the process of casting money in ancient times is generally to use ancestral money as a mold and recast mother money. These mother coins are then issued to various places, and the mother coins are used in various places to make fan coinage. ”

"What's the difference between a mother coin and a regular coin? Since it is a model and standard, doesn't it mean that all the money looks similar to the mother money? Xu Yinglong didn't know anything about this matter, and immediately asked.

"Brother Xu doesn't know it, the mother money is of high quality, well-carved, and the carved mother is made of golden copper, which is a copper with excellent quality. The copper coins minted in various places are rarely all copper, generally half of copper and tin, or even three or seven kai. In addition, the bronze carving mother money is very exquisite, and the words are deep. There is no trace of the knife in the carved mother money, which is slightly larger and heavier than the money in circulation in the same version, and the amount of money in the world is very small, and the value is extraordinary. "Xiao Ruofeng Dao.

Xu Yinglong really didn't expect that a small copper coin would be so exquisite, and secretly said that he still knew too little about the history of China.

"Since it has a certain value, why don't people shout the price, doesn't anyone look up to this copper coin?" Xu Yinglong asked again.

"Hehe, isn't it, in fact, there must be a lot of people who secretly like the mother money. The copper coins of the Chinese dynasties often have the phenomenon of wrong norms and flowing copper in the form, so that the coins are not neat and beautiful, and they are also very different in weight and fineness, that is, the money made in the same furnace is not necessarily the same weight, and it is even more difficult to distinguish in fineness. Therefore, mother money is highly regarded in the market and is often priceless. ”

"That"

Xiao Ruofeng raised his hand to stop Xu Yinglong's questioning, and then said: "The reason why none of these people are shouting is not because they are not interested in this mother coin, but because they are observing. You must know that there is no such thing as a return, it is all up to your own eye, so every decision must be extremely cautious. You see, as soon as someone shouts the price, others will swarm like sharks that have seen blood! ”

At this moment, someone began to bid, and a man wearing a gourd baby held up a sign and said: "50,000!" ”

This seems to be a signal, and then the sound of shouting comes and goes!

"Fifty-five thousand"

"Sixty thousand"

"Sixty-five thousand"

"Eighty-five thousand"

"One hundred and fifty thousand"

"Two Hundred Thousand"

When the bid reaches 200,000, the person who opens his mouth becomes cautious, after all, there is a difference between this kind of contract and a regular auction house, no one is responsible for your mistakes here, any bid must be fulfilled, and if you are deceived, you deserve it, and no one will sympathize with you.
