Chapter 32: High-end Meeting (1)
Today, a few of them can be regarded as an eye-opener, what is called pomp, the crowd of black pressure can't be seen at a glance. Some of these people have just arrived, and some have already left, and the buyers and sellers have a very tacit understanding with each other to see the goods.
Brother Hua was not idle, he had already bought a few things, a three-color Hu figurine from the Tang Dynasty, and two pieces of jade, one of which was the famous Liangzhu jade. The fat man didn't see him pay, and Brother Hua explained that these people would go to the organizer to get the money after the end, and they would make a sum of money to each other's account in advance, which was also to prevent the money from being empty in case of a police officer.
"Trading here is about credibility, which also fully demonstrates the strong ability of the organizers, as long as they mix on this road, the goods on their territory are absolutely safe, so now many overseas buyers have hired people to come here to order goods, they have a ship directly to Hong Kong, if you add freight and premium, you can pay on delivery."
"Amazing," the fat man said: "It is said that you Zhejiang people can do business, today I can be regarded as knowledgeable, how much power does this person have to be able to play such a big plate, just the money you play must be an astronomical amount, this courage is really not comparable to ordinary people." Thinking that the players on Guanzhong Road are still old-fashioned, they are really outdated compared to you, and I really want to meet that big brother when I have the opportunity. ”
"The human god dragon sees the head but not the end, to be honest, I haven't seen it, there is always something extraordinary for such people to dare to do such things." Brother Hua's goods have been packed and sent out, here is a one-stop service, there is also a stall dedicated to selling alcohol, don't look in the cave, there is any good wine. Brother Hua asked for a red wine in the past, he knew many people here, everyone greeted each other and raised their glasses, Brother Hua said: "You are waiting here, the top good things at the order will not appear in the stalls outside, there are also grades here, there are records of how many people you have consumed, I am a gold member, and there are platinum and diamonds on the top." It is said that any needs of diamond members will be granted, and they can get you a bed if you fancy any female star, as long as you can afford it. ”
"It's fucking ruthless," the fat man said, "You just said that good things don't stay outside, that means that the female corpse is still a baby?" ”
"That's nature." Brother Hua said: "Rare things are expensive, especially for collections, let me ask you, have foreigners ever seen live zombies?" Even if it's not a zombie, a corpse that hasn't rotted for hundreds of years can't be found in the world, what is scarce is good, you said you have a bubble of that Qin Shi Huang had, as long as you can prove that it is, it is a treasure. What kind of taste art, that's fucking nonsense, what kind of art do you know, the things dug out of the dead man's pit are still art, it's too late. Anyway, I bought it back, which means that I don't have you. ”
This Brother Hua's speech is quite interesting, the fat man drank two sips of wine, and occasionally someone around him came up to hand over a business card, these people see this more as a business, a business that is no longer ordinary.
After sitting for about an hour, a young man came to Brother Hua's side and whispered a few times, Brother Hua put down his wine glass and said to the fat man: "Two, today's high-end goods have to change places, follow me here." ”
Someone led the way in front, and a few people got out of the cave and got on a small boat, but this time they were not blindfolded, it seems that the guests of high-end goods have status, so naturally they don't have to be so careful. A pleasure boat stopped on the lake far away, and the boat threw a rope and slowly approached, and several people got on the boat again. Cha Wenbin had to give the fat man a look, this was on someone else's territory, telling him to be careful.
The ship is not as ordinary as it looks from the outside, and you can only experience what luxury is when you go to the deck and enter the cabin, with a water of mahogany furniture and leather sofas, huge crystal chandeliers, and high-quality stereo playing charming jazz music. Snacks and drinks were available everywhere, and most of the people on board were dressed in decent, single-breasted suits with ties and pins, which were the most popular decorations of the era.
"Brother Hua, there's a big show tonight." A person who seemed to be familiar with him came over and handed over the cigarettes, and Brother Hua was also very knowledgeable, introducing the fat man and Cha Wenbin next to him and said, "These two are the bosses." ”
The man hurriedly reached over and grabbed the fat man's palm and squeezed it tightly: "Fortunately, I will be lucky, contemptible Qiu Qian, I am the waiter here, and the two bosses must have fun tonight." ”
The fat man glanced at Brother Hua, who hurriedly stepped forward and explained: "Brother Qiu is the manager here, it's very rare, Boss Shi and Boss Cha have a lot of face tonight." ”
"Really?" The fat man hated this kind of smiling character very much, and responded coldly: "Then I want to ask for a sign tonight, I don't know if it's a sign or a sign?" ”
Qiu Qian was stunned for a moment and immediately smiled: "This Boss Shi is really good at joking, everyone who comes here is rich and noble, so naturally he has signed a sign." ”
"Well, thanks to you," said the fat man, "I hope not to be a sign." ”
There are not many buyers on the ship, there are only about 20 in total, and there are three rows of sofas in the middle of the cabin, all of which are huge, and there is a booth in front of it. After greeting all over the place, Qiu Qian raised his hand and looked at his watch, and estimated that the time was almost there, so he walked up and cleared his throat and said: "Friends, the semi-annual ordering meeting has begun, dear members and friends, tonight the little brother will bring you a few shocking works, the rules are still the same, the highest price will get." The first treasure tonight is a jade pig dragon from the Hongshan culture, according to our firmness, this is the earliest dragon-shaped jade that can be traced back to the history unearthed in China, please see. ”
After a while, a delicately dressed woman in a cheongsam walked up with a plate, lifted the bright yellow satin covered on it, and sure enough, a jade with a special shape was revealed underneath. Unlike ordinary auctions, you can come up and see here, but you can't touch them with your hands, there are a lot of big men in black in this cabin, and their waists are bulging, needless to say, there are guys hidden.
Soon people began to bid, and the thing obviously caused a sensation, and the fat man saw that there were four or five bidders, and they did not directly shout the price each time, but raised their hands. Brother Hua said that the rules here are set, but if you can enter the second round of high-end, the starting price is 1 million, and each price increase is 500,000, and raising your hand once means adding 50. Judging from this situation, in less than a minute, this Jade Pig Dragon has soared to a value of five million!
Soon some people began to retreat, and the remaining few continued to compete, and finally the item was purchased for thirteen million. The fat man's heart trembled a little, he knew it was a good thing, but what was the concept of thirteen million in those days? The average annual salary per capita is only five or six hundred yuan, and I am afraid that a string of zeros behind this can make nine out of ten people confused. He couldn't help but sigh why so many people are starting to take risks now, and why the control of the Romans is not as good as before, people die for money, birds die for food, a piece of jade can be sold for such a price, who would be willing to be controlled?
The second collection is a phoenix crown, according to the identification of the five dynasties and ten kingdoms, the founding emperor of Nanping, Wuxin Wang Gao Jixing's wife Empress Shengyuan, is said to have been pulled down from the coffin. There are more than 300 gems, more than 1,000 pearls, and three lifelike golden phoenixes......
The fat man muttered in a low voice: "How did this group of dogs find them!" ”
Brother Hua said with a smile: "Snakes have a way of snakes, and turtles have a road of turtles, and the rule here is that the shipper will not meet with the buyer, for their safety." ”
"You didn't say it sooner!" The fat man glared at him and said, "I can't find anyone, what are you leading me here for, give me a lesson to show how rich you are, right?" ”
"Hey, Brother Shi, how can you say that, this is the only clue, be patient, the rules here must wait until the boat is over before leaving, don't embarrass me."
This phoenix crown is naturally a white-hot competition, after rounds of price increases, in the end, it was the person who bought the Red Mountain Jade Pig Dragon who got his hand, and the fat man didn't bother to care about how many times he raised it, anyway, he never put it down, and it was not until no one around raised his hand that Qiu Qian announced that he was the final winner when he was the only one left in the audience.
"What did that guy do?" The fat man asked, "I don't think he cares how much others offer." ”
"I haven't seen it either," Brother Hua whispered: "I heard just now that he seems to represent a foreign company, you know, foreigners like to collect the most, their history is not as long as ours, and most of these things eventually flow to Europe and the United States through waterways." Few domestic players can afford to play this kind of game, we are actually coming up to make up for the head, those people have big international buyers behind them, do you see the brick-like thing they are holding in their hands? It's called a satellite wireless phone, and it's broadcast live anywhere, anytime. ”
"Go back and tell them," the fat man said: "This gang of old hats, you find a chance to go to Guanzhong to form a bureau, and the things that come out must not scare them to death, a fucking fart The phoenix crown of the queen can reach this number, our side is all from the Western Han Dynasty forward, and when the time comes, the brother will calculate the commission for you......"
