Chapter 62: Three Treasures

"Just these three?" Zhao Zimeng asked.

"Just these three." Cai Yaohui said.

Zhao Zimeng nodded to Section Chief Wen.

"What period is the bronze tripod?" Section Chief Wen asked.

"Western Zhou's."

"Where's the jade seal?"

"It is the jade seal of Zhu Yousong, the penultimate emperor of the Southern Ming Dynasty."

"Where are the three artifacts you mentioned now?"

"The jade seal and the Xuande furnace are in the safe of my residence in Feihu, and the bronze tripod is in the house I rented in Zhuangyuan Lane, and the house number is 827."

"Who is the landlord?"

In addition to renting a house, Cai Yaohui also has to find a person to help him watch the door, and Shigu Lane is an old lady who helps him look at things.

"The landlord is a vulgar old nun, she has no source of income, and rent is her only source."

Cai Yaohui is really looking for someone, whether it is an old lady or an old nun, they have no interest and energy to spy on Cai Yaohui's privacy.

These janitors were born with the condition that they were poor, old, infirm, and mostly confined to their homes.

Cai Yaohui's rented residence, such a situation, it is estimated that even thieves are too lazy to patronize it.

"Have you already let Teng Jianye and Shui Ruzhang see things?"

"Not yet. I was going to be tomorrow. ”

"Just looking at the real thing?"

"Look at the photos first." Cai Yaohui unbuckled his belt and took out a few photos from his underwear. No wonder nothing was found from him when he was captured last night.

Zhao Zimeng got up and walked to Cai Yaohui to take the photo, which was still hot.

Back in their seats, Zhao Zimeng and Section Chief Wen looked at each other one by one.

One photo shows the Xuande furnace, the other two are jade seals, and the last two are bronze tripods.

Section Chief Wen and Zhao Zimeng exchanged in a whisper.

Section Chief Wen said that from the photos alone, it can be seen that this Xuande furnace has an elegant and vigorous shape, with ears and feet. However, the photos are generally color-cast, and the color of the pulp of this furnace is close to the chestnut shell color from a visual point of view, and the color is excellent.

The bronze tripod is the same as Cai Yaohui said, it should be from the Western Zhou Dynasty. The jade seal is also of the highest quality.

All three treasures are priceless.

Zhao Zimeng carefully observed the cultural relics on the photo, and the shape of the bronze tripod reminded him of the survey site of the ancient tomb, which may be because of this cultural relic, the tomb robbers dug the hole and the entrance of the cave into a rectangle.

"Section Chief Wen, what is the word on the jade seal?" Zhao Zimeng consulted Section Chief Wen.

Section Chief Wen looked at Cai Yaohui, he wanted Cai Yaohui to speak first.

Cai Yaohui was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "On the jade seal are the words Hongguang, and Hongguang is the year name of Zhu Yousong of Ming'an Sect." ”

Section Chief Wen bowed his head in agreement.

Zhao Zimeng then asked: "Cai Yaohui, did these cultural relics, including the Nine Sheep Bottle, be collected from one person?" ”

"Yes. Before, I didn't tell the truth. ”

"The seller is the one you said was disguised?"

"Yes, that's the man."

"Was it a one-time harvest?"

"Twice. After the sale of Jiuyang Bottle, on the third day, he came to me again and said that he still had something in his hand, and he showed me the photos first. ”

"Why did he sell it to you in two installments?"

"In my opinion, he tested me for the first time, and after a successful trade, he may be relieved. I could tell he wanted to make a move earlier. ”

"Are you all paying for the price?"

"He wanted to sell early, but he also wanted to get a good price. The first time, it was me who made the offer, and the second time it was his offer, and he didn't let the counteroffer. He said that if he agreed to his price, he would make a deal, and if he didn't agree, he would not negotiate. ”

"At what price did the last three artifacts sell?" Section Chief Wen asked.

"The Xuande furnace is 80,000, the bronze tripod is 200,000, and the jade seal is 60,000. That's three hundred and forty thousand. ”

"Didn't you make a counteroffer?"

"No, the price he offered was acceptable, and I also found that he was inexperienced in terms of price. I also want to continue receiving goods from him. ”

"Does this man still have anything on his hands?" Zhao Zimeng was very concerned about whether there were other cultural relics in the hands of this mysterious disguised person, especially whether there would be other burial goods lost in the ancient tomb of Ion Mountain.

"I think there is, and if he didn't, he wouldn't have been able to come up with three things at once for the second time." Cai Yaohui is experienced, and his judgment should have some basis.

"Cai Yaohui, what do you think this person is from?" Zhao Zimeng said.

"In my opinion, he is most likely a gold thief."

"Since he is a tomb robber, he should have his own shipping channels, why is he just looking for you?"

"That's exactly what I'm wondering."

"What do you think?"

"If he can touch such a treasure, he is definitely not an ordinary tomb robber, and the veteran must have his own shipping channels. But the strange thing is that this person seems to lack shipping channels. Maybe he's been eyeing me for a long time, but he already knows my details. Otherwise, how could you rashly come to me, and it was four things as soon as you made a move. ”

"Now, do you still insist that it was sold to you by a disguised person?"

"Comrade policeman, I'm not telling a lie, this person is indeed disguised."

This mysterious figure is very likely to be the main culprit of the "10.5" tomb robbery murder case, and Cai Yaohui is the only person who has been in contact with him. So Cai Yaohui's memory is very important at this moment.

Although this person has a wig and a beard, these things cannot cover all the facial features of the person's face.

Zhao Zimeng wanted to extract these elements that make up the face from Cai Yaohui's memory.

"Although the disguise is disguised, you should always have some impression of his eyebrows and eyes, right?"

"Captain Zhao, I really don't remember clearly, at that time, my attention was all on those babies, I only remember that the hair on his sideburns was a little white, there was a beard on his lips, and there was a beard on both sides of his chin and chin."

"You said the disguised man, how old do you judge him?"

"From the time he showed me the pictures to the time he made the deal, we only met twice. The actual age of this man is at most forty years old. ”

"Are the four things traded in two parts?"

"It's two trades and he wants to make a move as soon as possible. By the way, I always feel that he is very sophisticated in disguise and disguise, but in terms of the price of cultural relics, it seems to be a little rusty. ”

"How can you feel this way?"

"I opened the price of Jiuyang Bottle, he paid back the price, and finally sold it for 90,000 yuan, the first time, he touched my bottom, and the second time, he took out three cultural relics at once."

"Where was the second transaction?"

"It's still in the reeds near the Red Flag Battlefield."

"What's the other party's means of transportation?"

"It's a van."

"How many people are involved in the transaction?"

"Alone."

"Could it be someone who has dealt with you before, because it involves human life, so he is dressed in disguise."

"If it's someone I've dealt with before, no matter how he disguises himself, I can guess who he is, and I can't hide his voice, and my ears are very smart."

It seems that Cai Yaohui really doesn't know this mysterious and disguised person.

"Yesterday morning, we went to your parents' house to investigate your condition. Do you know? Zhao Zimeng said.

"Yes, my mother told me."

"In this case, you even dare to trade with Ning Shangzhi, you are too bold."

"I thought you were investigating the case of Ion Mountain, but I didn't know that what I had in my hand was the burial goods of the Ion Mountain Tomb."

"Hearing you talk about this this morning scared me, this tomb robbery murder case really has nothing to do with me, I was afraid of provoking fire, so I didn't tell the truth."

"Yesterday at noon, after my mother told me, I wanted to cancel the transaction that night, but I had already set a time for the transaction with Ning Shangzhi, and I also wanted to get rid of the things earlier, the key is that I never dreamed that I would receive two bronzes, so I ......"

"Cai Yaohui, you called Teng Jianye and Shui Ruzhang Dao Jingxi to come, did you tell them what you want to sell?" Zhao Zimeng said.

"If you say it, don't say it, it's not good for them to bring money."

"So, you've already negotiated the price?"

"Yes, I make an offer, and they generally don't bargain."

"Why is that?"

"They dump things abroad, and the profit margin is huge."

"Are you saying that Teng Jianye and Shui Ruzhang are engaged in the smuggling of cultural relics?"

"I think so." Cai Yaohui also confirmed Ning Shangzhi's statement.

"Long-term cooperation, everyone has a fortune, and the price I give them is not high. As long as the actual product and the photo match. ”

"Which cultural relics did Teng Jianye and Shui Ruzhang fancy into?"

"It's not what they fancy it, it's what I give them, a thing, I never give it to two families, I never raise the price."

"This is my rule, one is for credibility, but for the sake of acting as soon as possible to avoid extraneous branches." Although Cai Yaohui is doing illegal business, he is quite disciplined.

"How did you distribute these three cultural relics?"

"Xuande furnace and jade seal, I sold it to Teng Jianye, and the bronze tripod was sold to Shui Ruzhang."

"How much do you offer?"

"The price of Xuande furnace is 500,000, the price of jade seal is 480,000, and the price of bronze is 1.5 million."

When Cai Yaohui quoted these prices, Zhao Zimeng and Section Chief Wen were inexplicably surprised, these priceless treasures in the hands of these cultural relics dealers, their value was like a snowball, tossing a few times, and then swelling rapidly.

It's hard to imagine what the astronomical prices will be when these treasures go overseas.

"How did the people you deal with contact you before?" Zhao Zimeng has verified the matter of Teng Jianye and Shui Ruzhang, and then he will implicate No. 2.

"They came to the store to connect with me, and I went to the store around 5 p.m. every day to reconcile the accounts."

"When you reconcile accounts, you're actually contacting the seller, aren't you?"

"I can't hide anything from you, comrade policeman."

"Aren't you worried about a few guys being suspicious?"

"I don't have direct contact with them in the store, and if they have something in their hands, they will follow me — or just go to the parking lot and wait for me."

"And do you now admit to knowing Two?"

"I admit it. I did see the man in the portrait. ”

"Then you can tell us about this number two!"
