Chapter 50: Underground Auctions
Hongwu drove Yang Fei to the door of a big hotel in the county, parked the car and took Yang Fei into the lobby of the hotel.
Hong Wu took out the phone and made a call: "Where is it?" Why didn't you pick up people? ”
I didn't know what to say to Hong Wu on the other end of the phone, and Hong Wu replied: "I'll be there soon." He hung up the phone.
Hong Wu said to Yang Fei: "Walk in room 606." ”
Hong Wu muttered in his mouth: Room 606 is a small room to live in, how to auction, to auction is also in a larger room, such as a meeting or something, this time it seems to be different from before.
Yang Fei took the elevator with Hong Wu to the 6th floor, and soon arrived at the door of room 606. Knocking on the door, the door opened, and it was a young man with a very sturdy figure, who knew by looking at his figure that he was a thug, probably a bodyguard here at the auction. The bodyguard asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
Hong Wu replied: "Is Boss Li here?"
The young bodyguard who opened the door asked, "Are you?" ”
Hong Wu replied: "My name is Hong Wu, and Boss Li always asked me to come here." ”
The bodyguard got out of the way and said to Hong Wu and Yang Fei, "Boss Hong, please come in." Then the bodyguard closed the door.
Hong Wu entered the room and saw that there was a bodyguard inside, and Boss Li was not inside, so he asked, "Why is Boss Li not there?" ”
The bodyguard replied: "Boss Li is not here, you will see you in a while." First, take out the communication equipment and other items, and let us keep them for the time being. ”
Hong Wu took out the mobile phone, Yang Fei watched Hong Wu take out the mobile phone and hand it to the bodyguard, and also took the mobile phone and handed it over.
After handing them over, the bodyguard said to Boss Hong and Yang Fei: "We have to check your bodies again, for everyone's safety, please cooperate." ”
Boss Hong doesn't care, the inspection was very strict in the past, and the stricter the inspection, the safer it is for everyone to buy ancient knowledge.
After the inspection, Hong Wu asked, "Haven't the others come yet?" Why didn't you see it? ”
The bodyguard replied: "You will see you in a while, your car, we will help you drive over in a while, you guys can go with me now." ”
The bodyguard took Boss Hong and Yang Fei from the stairs next to the hotel to the negative first floor, and a bus stopped at the door of the stairs on the negative first floor, and the bodyguards said to Hong Wu and Yang Fei: "Please get in the car." ”
When Hong Wu got into the car, he saw that Boss Jin, Boss Cai, and Boss Li were all inside, and there were some people he didn't know, and there were more than 20 people in the car, all of whom seemed to be buyers.
Hong Wu and they nodded to each other in greeting.
Hong Wu and Yang Fei found empty seats and sat down, and after waiting for three more people to come up. The bodyguard said to the driver: "Everyone is here, let's go." ”
The driver started the car, drove out of the underground parking lot, and drove in the city for about 20 minutes, and someone found that the car, as if it was going around in a circle in the city, went around for almost half an hour. After a while, I drove to a side road, drove for about ten minutes, and then drove to the door of an abandoned factory, and there was a security guard inside who opened the iron door to let the car in, and immediately closed the iron door after the car came in.
The bodyguard in the car said to everyone: "Okay, it's here, let's get out of the car." "The bodyguard led everyone into the factory.
Yang Fei looked at the factory, and there were security guards in every corner.
Boss Li, who was in charge of the auction, was in the factory and saw that everyone was coming, so he stepped forward to greet everyone and asked everyone to sit down. Then to everyone:
"The bosses have worked hard, this time there are more of them, for everyone's safety, everyone just entered the hotel in a different room, floor. I just met your room later, and if someone goes to check on it, it will mean who has a problem, and I will know who it is right away. If someone in our seat is an undercover agent, I believe everyone knows what I did, so I won't say more. ”
There is a humane below: "Boss Li, the more cautious you are, the safer we are." Let's talk about the auction. ”
Hong Wu whispered to Yang Fei: "Li Yidao is his nickname, what his real name is, no one knows, only the surname Li, it is said that when killing people, he has always used only one knife to kill people, and he never needs to make up for murder, so he is nicknamed Li Yidao on the road." ”
Li Yidao continued: "Okay, let's talk about how to auction it: this time there are more new Gu Zhibi, and there are more than 100 large and small pieces." ”
Speaking of this, the bosses below were all excited when they heard it, and they all thought: With so many ancient understandings, they should be able to auction off a lot of good things in a while. There will definitely be a big harvest this time.
Li Yidao looked at everyone and was very excited, so he continued: "If the auction is normal, it will take a long time." In order to save everyone's time, this auction is different from the previous one, and we have changed the auction method. We've found someone to value each of them, and each piece is marked with a number and a reserve price, and there's a box in front of each item. Each of you will be given a piece of paper with your personal number to use for quotation. You just need to pick up your paper, write the quotation of the corresponding item, and put it into the corresponding box, and the price increase should be 10,000 integer times, otherwise it will be invalid, and the one with the highest price will win. You only have two hours to appraise items and quotes, so you have to hurry. Do you still have any questions? ”
"It's only two hours for so many things, and the average time for one piece is only one minute, which is too short." Someone said below.
"The shortening of the time pressure will make it safer for everyone, and the longer this kind of thing is, the greater the risk, please understand. You can focus on the objects you are interested in, and you don't have to waste time if you are not interested. After all the quotations are made, we will soon be able to count and determine who has won which pieces. If there is no problem, if there is no problem, we will hurry up, and I will take you there. ”
"Let's get started." Someone below can't wait.
"Then come with me." After Li Yidao finished speaking, he took everyone into the basement of the factory, and when he was about to enter the basement door, there was a staff member who gave everyone who came in a quotation book and pen, and each page of the book was printed with a number.
Yang Fei and Boss Hong also followed the team into the basement, and the staff at the door of the basement gave Yang Fei and Hong Wu a notebook and pen for quotations. Yang Fei got No. 15 and Hong Wu got No. 16.
As soon as Yang Fei entered the basement, he felt that the temperature in the basement was a few degrees lower than above, and he felt very cold.
The basement area is larger, more than 10 meters long and more than 20 meters wide, there are many rows of fluorescent lamps lit inside, the basement is illuminated relatively brightly, the ancient understanding is neatly arranged in rows, and there is a small box in front of each piece to put the quotation, and the box has the item number and the reserve price.
Everyone walked into the basement and was about to start reading the ancient understanding.
Suddenly, the lights flashed several times in succession, and then went out.
"What's going on?"
"Why did the lights go out?"
"MD, what are you doing?"
There were shouts and scolding, and the basement was a little noisy.
"Everyone stand quietly and don't move, the power lines here are a bit old, and they will be fine right away." Li Yidao said.
Then he said to the bodyguard in the back: "Let's see what's going on with the line, see if the fuse is broken." ”
The bodyguard was just about to go up to look, when the lights came on again and returned to normal.
