Chapter 039: Underground Auction

Maybe it's really time to run, Han Wei and his party met an archaeological team in the desert, and with the help of the archaeological team, they successfully returned to Aksu City. This archaeological team is the team of the Beijing Institute of Archaeology, and there are several people who are acquaintances of Lao Zheng, all of whom are colleagues of Qiu Lao. This has to make people think that this is a reincarnation, the reincarnation in Lao Zheng's life.

After staying in Aksu City for a week, everyone recovered a little, and then immediately set off back to Beijing, first, except for Lao Zheng, no one else was suitable for the local climate and life, and secondly, they wanted to stay away from the relict city, and go as far as possible. Tuxingsun did not go with Han Wei and the others, and left alone, and now his leg is broken, and he is disheartened.

Finally returned to Beijing, Han Wei stayed in Lao Zheng's villa, and now he was covered with injuries and didn't dare to go home. This is full of injuries, and I don't want my family and friends to worry, so I rarely contact everyone. Han Wei did not have idleness, reading books every day, or following Lao Zheng to soak in Panjiayuan, after half a month, he had a lot of experience in antiques, of course, for real experts, his level is still not on the table.

When Han Wei returned to Beijing from Xinjiang for just a month, he received a strange phone call, which was from Lao Zheng's entrustment to find the vulture, that is, the person with the black mole man, who had found the whereabouts of the black mole man, who was in Guangzhou, and the specific address had been sent to Han Wei's mobile phone, with a photo attached. The person in the photo is eating, it is not very clear, it can still be confirmed that it is a man with a black mole, and there is a woman next to him, he can only see the back, Han Wei always has an urge to see what a woman looks like.

Han Wei has always been obsessed with the matter of the white jade ring, and he can not solve the secret of the white jade ring, and he will not be able to feel at ease for the rest of his life. Han Wei didn't want to delay too much time, so he bought a ticket to Guangzhou the next morning, along with Lao Zheng. After Lao Zheng came back from Xinjiang, he was much more cheerful, often joking with Han Wei, I don't know if he completely untied the knot in his heart, or treated every day as his last day. With Lao Zheng's company, Han Wei naturally will not refuse, Lao Zheng and the black mole man's parents are still acquainted, maybe it will be useful when this level of relationship is used.

……

Guangzhou City, Haizhu District, next to a park.

Lao Zheng and Han Wei entered a hotel with a middle-aged man, who Han Wei didn't know, because Lao Zheng didn't introduce him. The three of them went straight to the top floor, and there were seven or eight security guards waiting at the door, and when they saw the vigilant appearance and sturdy body at any time, they knew that they were not ordinary security guards, similar to Li Hua and Liu Shi, and they might have come out of the army. After layers of inspection, Han Wei was finally able to enter, and he became even more curious about this place.

Before coming, Lao Zheng said that this place will hold an underground auction today, and very few people know about it, they are all insiders, and the place where real connoisseurs meet is only once a year, and the location is different every year. And Lao Zheng judged that the vultures came to Guangzhou and appeared in Haizhu District, and nine times out of ten they came to participate in the auction.

Entering the lobby, it was a little dark inside, and they could only barely see things within a few meters, with the number plate in their hands, Han Wei and Lao Zheng finally found their place, and the people who brought them left and did not sit with them. As soon as Han Wei sat down, he searched around, trying to find the vulture, but the scene was too dark, and there were many people, there were already close to a hundred, and many people could only see the back, so how could they tell the difference.

Soon the auction began, everyone present stopped talking, and after the host's brief opening remarks, the first treasure was displayed, a blue and white porcelain vase from the Song Dynasty, about fifty centimeters high, with flower and bird patterns on the body of the bottle, and under the illumination of the light, there was a feeling of flying. Song blue and white porcelain vase starting at 2 million, 100,000 plus, the host briefly introduced, then began the auction, most of the people who can come here are connoisseurs, no need to say too much.

"Three million."

"Three and a half million."

"Six Million ......"

In the blink of an eye, the asking price had reached 8 million, and it was finally bought for 8.5 million. It was the first time for Han Wei to participate in this kind of auction, and when he heard the staggering price, the shock in his heart made him speechless for a long time. And Lao Zheng sat on the side calmly, as if he had long been accustomed to it. Under Han Wei's inquiry, he learned from Lao Zheng that Song blue and white porcelain is rare to see, and what I see now is definitely stolen from the ancient tombs of the Song Dynasty, and it is even more rare to be so well preserved, the price of eight million is not expensive, if it is put into other auction houses to speculate, the price will at least double. Now the people who come are connoisseurs, the prices are not very high, and the sellers do not have to pay taxes, so the prices are usually very reasonable.

Next, a few jade calligraphy and paintings were auctioned, and the lowest one was five million, for these prices, Han Wei heard a lot, and calmed down, without the previous excitement. Han Wei finally knew why Lao Zheng was so rich, any treasure shot was enough to enjoy it for a lifetime.

Followed by a bronze sword from the Warring States period, except for the circle on the hilt, the sword body does not have any carving or ornamentation, and it looks extremely ordinary. The starting price of this bronze sword is eight million, and it is not only sold for a long time, but I saw the host pick up the bronze sword and slash to the solid wood table on the side, the solid wood table was neatly divided into two, and the fractured position was very smooth, and then the bronze sword had no effect, which showed the sharpness of the bronze sword. This bronze sword is compared with Lao Zheng's short sword, and I don't know who will win and who will lose against the two.

"Twenty million."

As soon as the host's voice fell, someone couldn't wait to shout the price, and the voice was thick, and no one increased the price for a while. When Han Wei heard this voice, his heart accelerated suddenly, this voice was definitely a vulture's, and he would never hear it wrong. It seems that everyone has taken care of the vulture, and no one has increased the price, Han Wei has also watched the auction for a long time, even if he doesn't understand it, he knows that the bronze sword is more than this price.

Han Wei whispered to Lao Zheng: "This person is a vulture. ”

Lao Zheng was stunned for a moment, then his expression became vigilant, and he said: "This person is an absolutely smart person, and he is much more powerful than he imagined, I'm afraid it's not easy to deal with." ”

This time it was Han Wei's turn to be stunned, I don't know why Lao Zheng suddenly came to such a conclusion, the information of the vulture was all found by Lao Zheng, and he didn't have such a vigilant and worried look at that time. There was no need for Han Wei to speak, Lao Zheng said again: "This person is full of ferocity when he speaks, and the murderous aura is faintly exposed, and other people who want to bid will hesitate, not afraid but weighing the gains and losses, and the vulture's price increase is not very low, so as not to anger the seller too much, the seller will hold a grudge, but not desperately." ”

After listening to Lao Zheng's analysis, Han Wei's heart tightened, and he was ready to return in vain. Just as Han Wei and Lao Zheng were talking, the host had already dropped the hammer, and sure enough, no one raised the price, and the atmosphere became a little dull. The vulture did not hide its joy in the slightest, let out a hearty laugh, and was not afraid to arouse the anger of the people.

In the subsequent auction, Han Wei was absent-minded, thinking of various ways to get the secret of the white jade ring from the vulture, but all kinds of methods were denied. Han Wei even thought about finding someone to kidnap the vulture, but this idea was only fleeting, he was not a vulture, and this kind of thing couldn't be done.

Lao Zheng suddenly opened his mouth and said: "I see that the vulture likes bronze swords very much, you can start from here, just use my short sword, you will definitely be able to lure him out, and if you can get him drunk at that time, you may be able to make a statement." And I know his father, maybe he can start here. ”

It's really a solution, but will vultures be fooled? Han Wei didn't know the bottom in his heart, but this was the only way he could think of and could work. It's just that in this way, Lao Zheng is bound to be in danger, losing the sword is still a trivial matter, if he dies because of this, Han Wei will not be at ease for the rest of his life. Han Wei hesitated for a moment, but he still wanted to refuse, but before he could speak, Lao Zheng's words sounded: "It's decided, let's go first." ”

Lao Zheng's attitude was very resolute, and he couldn't tolerate Han Wei's refusal, Han Wei knew that this was Lao Zheng thanking him, thanking him for accompanying him but the desert city, and almost died there. Han Wei and Lao Zheng have not been together for a long time, but they know each other very well, once they have decided something, Lao Zheng will never change it. The two of them left the auction hall and did not leave the hotel, they waited in the hall on the first floor, and after waiting for nearly an hour, the auction finally ended, Han Wei hurriedly left, he and Lao Zheng were on the phone, and they could always hear each other's situation.

The vulture appeared in the hall as soon as possible, and when he left the hotel and was about to get in the car and leave, Lao Zheng stepped forward to stop him. The vulture looked at Lao Zheng vigilantly, holding the bronze sword he had just bought in his right hand, and if he felt the slightest mistake, he would immediately attack.

"I didn't expect you to be so old now, but the second child has a successor." The father of the vulture is the second in the family, and generally only acquaintances know, Lao Zheng also heard the master mention that although this is the first time to see the vulture, he is not afraid of showing his feet.

When the vulture heard Lao Zheng mention the word "second", his expression slowed down, and he said, "I don't know who the predecessor is?" ”

"Just call me Lao Zheng, first master Zheng Yu." Lao Zheng mentioned his master, and his expression could not hide his arrogance.

"I wonder what Uncle Zheng is looking for me?" The vulture attitude is a little respectful, Lao Zheng's master is a famous tomb robber, the vulture often hears his father mention, seeing Lao Zheng's proud attitude, but immediately believes in Lao Zheng's identity, Lao Zheng does have proud capital, and according to the generation, it is not an exaggeration to call the uncle.

"Find a place to sit down and talk."

Lao Zheng said, opening a gap in the backpack, revealing the blade of the short sword. The vulture is worthy of being an expert, and immediately saw that it was a good thing, and hurriedly asked Lao Zheng to get in the car, saying that there was a five-star hotel in front of him, and he called to book a location.

Han Wei hid in the hotel, and when he saw Lao Zheng leaving in the vulture's car, he immediately took a taxi to follow far away. In order to save the battery of the mobile phone, Lao Zheng hung up the phone temporarily, Han Wei was worried and wanted to find a helper, but he was not familiar with the place here, so he could only rely on himself.
