Chapter 189: Professional Broker
The three of them sat down again and began to discuss the case, Wen Yiming organized the language and said: "It is certain that Qian Yicheng and Liu Da were also hypnotized, and after meeting Liu Tianhou by chance, they were planted with the seeds of auditory hallucinations, which constantly influenced the decisions of the two rich people, and finally got a huge investment of 200 million. ”
"I analyzed that Liu Tian was the first victim, and the puppeteer took a fancy to his background and profession, and there were channels to transfer large sums of money overseas. Then find opportunities to hypnotize the rich, absorb investment, and transfer assets. It is estimated that it would not have been stopped so quickly, but because the family reported the case and the police intervened in the investigation, it was decided to let Liu Tian commit suicide, destroy all the evidence, and cut off our way. ”
The others nodded in agreement, and all the evidence proved Wen Yiming's speculation that there was definitely a mastermind behind everything that was manipulated.
Bai Yunfei asked: "In other words, the next two suicide cases are just to divert the attention of the police?"
Jiang Zhenyu agreed: "Yes, among all crimes, suicide is the most common and the least noticeable! The white team should have a deep understanding of it, right? There are suicide cases in big cities every day, and as long as the police rule out the possibility of homicide, they will immediately close the case, and after the family members claim the body, no one will investigate at all." ”
Bai Yunfei couldn't help but shudder, and said in fear: "I don't dare to think now, how many of the thousands of suicides every year are the handiwork of this demon? It's terrifying!"
Everyone shuddered a little, if anyone can make the victim willingly commit suicide, it is definitely the most clever killer in the world!
But now, even if it is certain that someone controlled the victim's suicide, there are few valuable clues, let alone the suspect, which makes Wen Yiming a little helpless, so he can only wait for the police to continue the investigation and leave the police station first.
When he got home, he took a hot shower and slept beautifully, he was just doing Tang Xiaoya a favor, but he ended up in it, but the process of finding the truth was very interesting, and the battle of wits and courage with criminals was even more exciting, and he gradually began to enjoy this feeling.
"Here, two little things, it's time to eat!"
Wen Yiming lit the incense of meditation, and let the golden horn and the little Tibetan mastiff come to eat, these days are too busy, the golden horn is a little dissatisfied, today can finally have a good meal, which is considered compensation.
"Hey, the little guy grows so fast!"
The golden horn has basically completed molting, there is not much change, but the color is lighter, according to the notes, every time the golden snake molts, not only the speed and strength will be greatly improved, the color will become lighter and lighter, and finally there is no shadow and invisible, and it will be killed in an instant!
Wen Yiming picked up the little Tibetan mastiff and found that the little thing had grown a lot in just a few days, and golden hair appeared all over his body, could this be the legendary golden mastiff?
It stands to reason that it shouldn't, although its parents are both native mastiffs with pure blood, they are not golden, especially the female mastiff, which is obviously just yellow, is it a genetic mutation!
Wen Yiming shook his head, he is not an expert, wait until he is older to find the sixth master, the little guy stared at Wen Yiming with dark eyes, showing an affectionate expression, and kept licking his fingers with his little pink tongue, which was very cute.
"I'll call you Xiaojin!"
Wen Yiming flashed a name in his mind, the golden horn is golden, he is already hundreds of years old, there are a lot of small Tibetan mastiffs, which can only be regarded as small gold, although it is a little rustic, but the cheap name is easy to feed.
Think about it in the future, when you go out, you will wear a killer golden snake on your hand, and you will be followed by the legendary golden mastiff behind you, majestic and domineering!
To appease the two little guys, Wen Yiming began to make incense sticks, especially ecstasy incense, the amount is large, and I found that the incense is too wasteful several times, in fact, the incense sticks can achieve the hypnotic effect, and I have time to get more spare.
Dinner with Ling Junsheng and Ling Tiancheng in the evening, Ling Tiancheng has been busy these days, Tiancheng Auction is basically ready, began to formally prepare for the first auction, and now has a lot of top collectors' series of collections, according to the plan to take the high-end boutique route, give up the low-end market, concentrate firepower, and make a name.
"By the way, there is a senior broker on Hong Kong Island tomorrow, Zhai Jianmin of Yongbao Zhai, a well-known middleman in the circle. ”
Ling Tiancheng put down his chopsticks, wiped his mouth and smiled: "The other party heard that we have a lot of fine products in our hands, especially Bai Jing's snuff bottle, this time I came all the way, I should be entrusted by someone to talk about private acquisition." ”
Wen Yiming nodded, to say that the collection is still at a high level on Hong Kong Island and Treasure Island, after all, the economy is developed, the collector has a deep cultural heritage, and the auction started early. Don't look at the two leading companies of Baoli Jiade in China, in fact, it is still the world of Jiashide and Sufubi over there.
Many top collectors do not come to the mainland to raise their cards at all, for many reasons, mainly because of the poor reputation here, there are too many fake auctions, and the water is very muddy, so they dare not end up easily.
Since the other party is interested in the snuffbox entrusted to him by Bai Jing, he will meet tomorrow, and sooner or later he will go to Hong Kong Island to expand his contacts, and it is more convenient to meet the head snake in advance.
The next morning, Zhai Jianmin came to Tiancheng Auction, and the three of them met and sat down to chat, to say that this person is not simple, Yongbao Zhai Zhai, a famous porcelain connoisseur, and an antique broker. Every year, I fly around the world, helping others find collections, and I have a wide range of connections. It also organizes an antiques fair on Hong Kong Island every year, which has now grown into one of the largest exhibitions.
"You should know who I am, run around all day, help others find collections, and make a hard-earned amount of money in between. The old saying is a broker, but now it's better, antique dealer!"
Zhai Jianmin was very refreshing, straight to the point to show his intentions, Ling Tiancheng said with a smile: "That also shows that Brother Zhai, you have a wide range of people and many resources, and many people dream of eating this bowl of rice!"
"Haha, Brother Ling is polite!" Zhai Jianmin laughed and said, "Many people say that I am not a collector, but a businessman, and I am very disgusted. A gentleman loves money, and he takes it in a good way! I work hard all day to earn some commissions, shouldn't I earn some commissions? Besides, it is also a sense of accomplishment to be able to help collectors find their favorite treasures. ”
Wen Yiming nodded in agreement, Zhai Jianmin and Huang Xuanlong are the same kind of people, after all, not everyone is a billionaire, and they can't hide their spare money. Collecting and collecting is the process of removing the false and preserving the true, and constantly upgrading. With the improvement of self-cultivation and aesthetic level, the vision is naturally different.
Even if it is Hu Jianmin, it is impossible to come up directly to collect the five generations of famous kilns, just a pen wash of 300 million, how many can he buy?
This circle looks at the eyesight, the second is the collection, and the third is the connection. For example, Zhai Jianmin, he doesn't have many heavy weapons in his hands, but he has a wide range of connections, if you want to exchange or make a move, you can also ask others for help.
His name is the guarantee in the circle, and the first transaction between the two parties, with his intermediate guarantee, are assured. In particular, there are some collections that are not suitable for auction, and this is the only way.
The old Liuli Factory of the Republic of China is like this, but all famous people in the circle like you to play for a few days first, and then give money. If you really don't like it, it's okay, just get the original back, and the antique shop is a reputation.
According to the rules of the industry, the buyer pays 3% of the transaction amount and the seller pays 2% as the commission of the middleman. It is much cheaper than 10 or even 15 percent cheaper than auction houses, so many people like to trade privately.
In fact, there are auction houses in this way, called private negotiation, and many unsold boutiques are sold in this way, of course, the price is much cheaper, and some are even sold at half price.
Bai Jing's snuff bottle does not have to be auctioned, as long as the price is right, it can be sold, this is left to Ling Tiancheng to worry about, Wen Yiming actually enjoys the fun of chatting with the other party more.
Those who can mix to this level have success, strong personality charm, after all, he is young, and it is no harm to learn more and communicate more, so he likes to participate in this kind of party, not for money.
The two sides quickly reached a cooperation intention, especially when Bai Jing heard that the other party was entrusted by Zhang Zongxian, and directly agreed to the deal. The price is not the highest, but the other party is the first collector on Hong Kong Island, and he is also a professional snuff bottle, and he has collected it for many years.
After the negotiation of the sale, the two sides relaxed, Zhai Jianmin tasted the tea, and said comfortably: "There is a unified standard for the appraisal of antiques in our side, and the antique AB certificate issued by the appraisal association. The so-called B certificate is a 100-year certificate, which means that your thing is more than 100 years old and is an old object. ”
"The A certificate is a certificate to determine the specific age, which is recognized by the whole bank, which is the practice of our Hong Kong Island. ”
