Chapter 305: Auction 1
In fact, the reason why there are so many people in this late-night auction is not only that many people are attracted by the jade cicada, but also because there will be many other antiques for auction before the auction of the jade cicada.
In the words of an insider, if you want to buy something that is dug out of an ancient tomb in the middle of the night, you have to attend an auction in the middle of the night.
Because of these things, they didn't even dare to appear on the stalls, so they could only be quietly shot here.
Even if you're lucky, you can see national treasure-level cultural relics that are not allowed to be traded on the market at all, and you can encounter bronze, jade, and lacquerware every once in a while.
And the most exaggerated thing is that these things that can really be called the best are often traded and may not appear on the market again in the next few decades, and there are even many things that are bought by people that night, and they have been loaded on smuggled out ships and shipped overseas before dawn, because as long as these things can be poured overseas, they can be sold at unimaginable, higher prices.
This abandoned factory is located in the ravine of Shunzhou, it is a machinery factory that has been abandoned in the sixties and seventies of the last century, and this group of people set the auction here, mainly because it is remote enough, because all the villages within a radius of dozens of miles have long been relocated, so even if it is an open-air party here in the middle of the night, no one will know.
And in this abandoned factory, there is a big house in which I don't know if it used to be a movie screening hall or an auditorium for employees, but it is very suitable for an auction, because there is a stage where auctioneers can stand on it and display what they want to auction, and the audience can just accommodate 100 people.
Walking into this big house, Ye Fei was surprised to find that this group of people had cleaned up the place as if it were a new house.
They even installed a generator here, the house was brightly lit, and even the stands were equipped with chairs with backrests.
So when you walk into this big house, you immediately feel that this and outside are two worlds.
Ye Fei is the first time to see this kind of scene, so at this moment, it is a bit like Grandma Liu has entered the Grand View Garden, and everything is fresh.
He couldn't help but say to himself: "This group of people is not too troublesome, it takes so much effort to secretly hold an auction, it is estimated that it will cost at least hundreds of thousands just to clean up this auction hall." ”
At this time, Diao Dehai was sitting next to Ye Fei, he showed his big teeth and said with a smile: "Mr. Ye, these hundreds of thousands are a fart for these people who have goods to sell, after an auction here, hundreds of millions of transactions have appeared, only hundreds of thousands, these people will not look at it." ”
"Do you often have auctions like this here? Mr. Diao, do you often come to participate? ”
Diao Dehai shook his head and said with disdain: "This kind of auction is often held, but I don't come every time, I will only come to see it when I encounter something good." ”
After Diao Dehai finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Zhang and smiled and said, "This place is not only familiar to me, but you, Manager Zhang, should also be familiar with it, right?" ”
Ye Fei looked at Zhang Zhang with a surprised expression and said, "How can you be familiar with this place?" ”
Zhang Zhang pointed in one direction at this time and said, "Mr. Ye, look at what these things are." ”
Ye Fei looked at the place where Zhang Li's finger was, and said in his heart, isn't this just some tables, chairs and benches covered with cloth.
Zhang Zhang said with a smile: "I have indeed been to this place before, because Jia Yuanzhong used to open a casino here, and those covered with cloth are the tables used in casinos in the past." ”
Before Ye Fei could speak, Diao Dehai smiled and said: "Not only before, but now this is still a casino, but now that the owner has changed, it is not only lively when auctions are held at night, but also during the day." ”
Even Zhang Zhang asked in surprise at this time: "Mr. Diao, do you mean that this casino is still working now?" ”
"Yes, Mr. Ye and Manager Zhang, you can come here at any time to play when you have time."
It turned out that when Jia Yuanzhong was driven away in the past, Diao Dehai immediately took over this place, and he has been secretly operating an underground casino here, and even Lei Laohu didn't know about it.
Because after Lei Laohu established the group, he asked his original subordinates not to continue to "fish for the wrong way", but the greedy Diao Dehai did not listen to Lei Laohu's words and has been the boss behind this casino.
Zhang Zhang frowned and said, "No, if there is a casino here, how can I not know?" ”
Diao Dehai said: "You don't know and can't blame you, because most of my gamblers here are bosses from other places, as long as they come here to play, they don't even have to drive their own cars, they are all picked up by my own people, not to mention Shunzhou, even the people of the Thundercloud Group don't know the existence of this casino." ”
Ye Fei saw Diao Dehai's face at this time, and his disgust for him deepened a little bit, because he realized at this time that Diao Dehai, an old guy, didn't know how many things he had done behind his back, and this casino might not be the only business behind his back.
Ye Fei asked: "Mr. Diao, I don't think this place is close to the urban area of Shunzhou, and it is not far away, aren't you afraid that the police will know about it and come directly to end this place?" ”
Diao Dehai said confidently: "Impossible, let alone the police, they can't catch people when the special forces come, as long as the casino is open during the day, all the intersections into the mountain are my people, and everyone has a walkie-talkie, but as soon as a stranger enters the mountain, the casino will receive the news immediately, even if the police come in, when they arrive here, the people in the casino will have already run away along the back mountain." ”
After speaking, Diao Dehai also said to Ye Fei with a smile: "Mr. Ye, I'm not afraid to tell you, the road leading to Yucheng in the back mountain here was built by me, you don't know how profitable the casino is, how is it, are you interested in doing it together, as long as you nod your head, I don't want a penny, this casino is even if you have 30% of the shares." ”
Ye Fei didn't think about it, he just shook his head and said that he was not interested.
Of course, this treacherous and cunning Diao Dehai can't give Ye Fei shares for nothing, the reason why he looks so generous is because this casino is in Shunzhou, he wants tension to provide him with protection, and he knows better that as long as Ye Fei goes into the water, this casino can bring more gamblers in Shunzhou, and it is even equivalent to doing it openly.
