Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

In order to cooperate with their actions, the original products have been placed in the warehouse during this period and will no longer be displayed to the public.

"Are you familiar with people from the Chinese Language and Culture Department?" Wen Ya's eyes sparkled. She originally thought that Lin Ran was just Tang Lanxuan's apprentice, and she just wanted to bring him over to help with the inspection of the cultural relics they wanted to take pictures of.

It really gave myself a surprise.

Having already helped to this extent, Lin Ran had no intention of hiding it anymore.

He whispered: "Boss Wen, in fact, these are all part of our previous plans, but you have advanced them by half a year."

Originally, the fakes they made were for the upcoming Tokyo auction. They didn't want to be taken advantage of and spend a lot of money to buy back the cultural relics from the enemy.

They wanted to bring back the genuine items and exchange these forged cultural relics with them using the method of exchanging civet cats for princes.

Of course, all this was planned in secret and was not allowed to be mentioned to anyone.

But Lin Ran thought that Wen Ya was also a smart person and was on their side in a way, so he decided to reveal this matter to him.

Wen Ya said happily: "Any more?"

Lin Ran nodded, but said: "Please don't publicize these things to the outside world."

"Don't worry, whenever you go to the Tokyo auction, I will also try to help."

"Shh, let's talk about these things after we return to China."

Lin Ran raised his eyebrows, signaling that someone was coming.

They also changed the topic of conversation instantly, as if they were discussing business just now.

A man with a big belly came over, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and a bandage on his head. He looked like a local tycoon.

After he came in, he glanced at the two of them expressionlessly. Without saying anything, he walked directly to the Buddha statue, then picked up a magnifying glass and looked at it carefully.

While he was inspecting the Buddha statue, Lin Ran and the others were also observing the environment in the office.

The office area is not large, but the decoration inside is quite luxurious.

There was a large mahogany desk in front of them, and all the books were placed on it. The names of the books were all written in curry script, so they could not recognize what was written.

On the back hangs a photo of a local great.

There are four bookshelves on both sides, but there are only a few books in the bookshelves, and the rest are porcelain.

Porcelain is full of local customs and customs, and is obviously different from Chinese porcelain.

To be precise, it should be called pottery.

In addition, there are some oil paintings hanging around, all of which are works by abstract masters.

It didn't take long for the appraisal to be over.

The fat man wearing glasses chatted a few words with Kara in dialect, then walked up to Lin Ran and held out five fingers.

Lin Ran took out 500 yuan and handed it to him, which was equivalent to the appraisal fee of 200 yuan.

After the fat man got the money, he looked at them with hostility again, turned around and left.

Lin Ran actually already knew the answer, but Kara was still pretending to be embarrassed and said: "You can participate in the auction for these things, but can you provide valid source certificates?"

Lin Ran smiled and said: "We smuggled these things out."

"That would be difficult." Kara smiled slightly, but the expression on his face was very playful.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious. Lin Ran took the initiative and said, "As long as you can think of a way, the handling fee is easily negotiable."

"No, no, no, this is no longer about the handling fee." Carla stood directly in front of the Buddha statue, fearing that the two of them would pick up the Buddha statue and run away.

It was obvious that the master's craftsmanship had exceeded the level of Fatty's appraiser. He believed that this Buddha statue was genuine. To be precise, it was an extremely rare masterpiece.

Lin Ran pretended to be confused and asked, "Then what should we do?"

"Easy to say." Kara smiled, "Our company wants this Buddha statue. Please tell us the price."

Lin Ran rubbed his eyes, and then asked: "Wait a minute, we really want to sell this thing, but I just want to auction it."

"Two gentlemen, I'm afraid you still don't understand. This Buddha of yours is contraband. If we call the police, it won't be just you. You won't get a cent. You may even be deported."

"Deportation?" Lin Ran sneered, "If you call the police, do you think you can get your own Buddha statue?"

Now that the other party is trying to show off, they are threatening them.

Lin Ran knew very well that he must not give in at this time, otherwise the other party would think that he was easy to bully, and they would lose both people and money.

Kara smiled: "Yes, that is a choice that is made only when it is absolutely necessary. Both of you are smart people. If you sell this thing to me, I will help you deal with it."

Lin Ran and Wen Ya stopped talking. They had seen many profit-seeking businessmen in China, and they found it disgusting enough.

I didn't expect to see this kind of delicious curry in the country of curry. If it's not soft, just go for the hard one.

"I'll stress it again, I want the stuff, let's talk about the price."

In fact, this was exactly what Lin Ran wanted. The fakes they made were not perfect. As long as they checked the age through scientific instruments, they would reveal their secrets.

However, Curry Country's technology is not advanced either, and they have not purchased such equipment.

Moreover, the fact that this auction company chose to operate in Curry Country was actually used as a tool for money laundering. They were not important at all, and naturally they would not prepare high-tech equipment for them, which also gave Lin Ran an opportunity.

Lin Ran pretended to be angry and said: "Mr. Kara, I won't make any money in this way."

"Of course you have the money, but if you want to get rid of this thing safely, you have to pay a price."

Kara had already believed what they said, thinking that they were engaged in some illegal tomb robbing or theft activities in China, got this gilt Buddha statue, and then took it to their auction house for consignment.

He also wanted to get a piece of the pie, and it was normal in the shopping mall.

Lin Ran's face was filled with unwillingness, but in the end he chose to compromise and said, "I plan to sell it for 200 million rupees."

Kara picked up the Buddha statue and said: "The auction price should be about the same."

"Then how much do you plan to give?" Lin Ran frowned.

Kara glanced at him meaningfully and said with a smile: "I think it's at most 40 rupees."

This price is actually only 4 Huaxia coins, which is really too dark.

Lin Ran shook his head: "No, the price is too low."

Kara thought she had caught their lifeblood, but she was not in a hurry. She glanced at him: "I think the price is very reasonable."

"No, our business is also full of risks. This price can't even cover the capital." Lin Ran said.
