Treasure Hunt America
Chapter 509: masked reception
"Uh... this, I don't know much about this..."
When Jin Muchen asked this question, the shop owner actually started to hesitate. Jin Muchen knew this guy and didn't tell the truth to himself. Cola Novel Network has updated the finale
Jin Muchen also knew that it would not be a good idea to keep putting pressure on him, so his face changed again, and he took out his wallet from his arms.
When I arrived in Xiangjiang just the day before yesterday, I changed a lot of cash, so I didn't count it from my wallet, so I grabbed a handful, about ten or twenty thousand, and stuffed it into this young man's arms.
"Tell the truth!"
Starting with the money, the young man's eyes lit up.
"Um... Later, my grandfather really didn't tell me about the underground auction, but after I took over this antique shop, I talked to the next door brother Niu, and he told me something. About that underground auction..."
Having said that, this guy actually gave a deliberate meal, Jin Muchen smiled, then pulled out a handful of banknotes from his wallet and stuffed it into this guy's hand.
The moment he got the money, the guy's face turned into a flower with a smile.
"Brother Niu told me that the underground auction was organized by a big man in the Hong Kong B society. That big man has a lot of skills. He used to specialize in the parallel import business. Later, he made a fortune, and then I don't know how to deal with the mainland. A group of people who specialize in smuggling cultural relics got on the line. Even better, he got to know a lot of rich people, so he built a bridge from the middle and started to specialize in the underground antique smuggling business. At first, it was delivered to the door. Later He made a lot of money, and he started to play more and more, and he started to do underground auction business. At the beginning, he set the auction location on Lantau Island, and then changed several locations in succession. Listen It is said that it is getting bigger and bigger, and it will be held once a month on average. Now his auction is very big, not only the rich people in Xiangjiang like to go there, but also many rich people in Baodao. People, Europeans and Americans, have a good reputation anyway. But I don’t really know where the exact location is now. Brother Niu hasn’t been there for a long time.”
This time, what this guy said should be the truth. After Jin Muchen heard it, he didn't say anything, just asked one more question at the end.
"About the big guy behind the underground auction, do you know who it is?"
"This. I really don't know much about it..."
The young man's answer was a little hesitant, and Jin Muchen's face changed: "Brother, my money is not so easy to get, you'd better tell me everything you know, or else..."
This young man was really frightened by Jin Muchen, and when he changed his face, the guy shuddered.
"Really, that boss, I really don't know who it is, but the person in charge of holding this underground auction. I heard someone say that it seems to be a woman, and her nickname seems to be Sister Tao!"
Hearing this, Jin Muchen's heart jumped again, which woman turned out to be.
In this way, it will be easy to handle. Isn't it the woman who asked her to come to Xiangjiang this time?
Then this time, I just happened to go to the underground auction she held to see...
There was already a calculus in his heart, and Jin Muchen didn't stay in this small shop.
Come to this cat street and collect a few stone pots from Tao Hongzhai. With the addition of an eagle painting by Pan Tianshou, Jin Muchen was already very satisfied.
There are still dozens of meters of streets, he has no intention to continue to stroll, and hurried back to the hotel with Belinda.
the next two days. He and Belinda have been wandering around the hotel, visiting several well-known scenic spots near Xiangjiang Central, and also tasted many well-known snacks in Xiangjiang.
In addition, Belinda has been constantly asking him for advice these days. Regarding the knowledge of Chinese antique identification, Jin Muchen didn't hide it, and he knew some knowledge. All told Belinda.
In fact, he also knew that even if he told her, it wouldn't be a big deal.
After all, this knowledge, even if you have learned theoretical knowledge, is useless, you still have to experience it yourself in reality. Most of the antique appraisers have come this way.
In this way, three days passed, and finally on this day, he received a call from Sister Tao.
"Hi, Jim, have you arrived at Xiangjiang?"
"Oh, hello Sister Tao, haha, I received your call a few days ago, and I rushed to Xiangjiang immediately. I have been playing here for several days!"
"Oops, as a landlord, I'm really rude for not being able to do everything the landlord should be able to do..."
"Hey, Sister Tao, you're too polite. You're saying that I'm not here for fun, but mainly for business."
"Okay, cheer up, we'll send someone to pick you up at six o'clock tonight, we're holding a masked dance, remember to put on your makeup! Everyone here is faceless, you're the first time to participate in this auction. , so there are some rules, I have to explain to you, today's dance is just a day for everyone to pay the deposit. Everyone who participates in this auction must pay a deposit of one million US dollars, and we will ensure the safety of the funds. , and the authenticity of the auction items. After the deposit is called, three days later, we will arrange for someone to pick you up and go to the auction site, and you will definitely not be disappointed by then..."
What Sister Tao said was very succinct. There was no room for Jin Muchen to bargain at all. Jin Muchen didn't know that they still had such a rule. As soon as they came up, they asked people to pay a deposit of one million US dollars, which seemed a bit too exaggerated.
But when I think about it, a million dollars is nothing to me.
Even if you go to a serious auction, don't you have to pay a security deposit before the auction starts, and the money will be returned to you in the end.
These underground gangs in Xiangjiang have been doing this kind of business for some years, and they must have made a reputation.
Didn't the owner of the antique shop that I met in the daytime a few days ago also said that they are now getting bigger and bigger and more formal, and their customers are all over the world.
This shows that their reputation is not bad, so in order to visit the auction site, it is not a big deal to pay a deposit of one million US dollars.
Thinking of this, Jin Muchen agreed immediately, and Sister Tao was also very happy to hear his affirmative answer.
"Jim, you can rest assured that although our auction is an underground auction, our credibility can be placed there! If you return empty-handed at this auction, we will refund this million dollars to you. And This is mainly because this is the first time you have participated in such an auction, and if you participate more times in the future and the transaction volume increases, then the amount of the deposit will be reduced in full."
"I see, Sister Tao. By the way, I have another question. Can I bring my partner with me?"
"Yes, of course! We welcome any participants, bring partners, but there is a premise that you can't bring weapons, and you can't bring any filming equipment!"
"Don't worry about that, we still understand Sister Tao's rules."
Jin Muchen answered with a laugh, then chatted with Sister Tao for a few more words, and hung up the phone.
After that, I hurried out with Belinda, bought some simple makeup and disguise equipment, and dressed up in the room. At six o'clock in the evening, Jin Muchen's phone rang, and the person sent by Sister Tao had already arrived downstairs.
Jin Muchen and Belinda quickly put on the masquerade supplies they bought earlier. Jin Muchen was wearing a tuxedo with a dome on his head politely, and a simple black veneer mask that covered half of his face .
The image is a bit like Zorro the Rogue in the Mexican movie, but Belinda's side is much more flamboyant, wearing a black bodysuit, evening dress, hair rolled up, and a sticker full of fake crystals on her face. face mask.
The two went downstairs, and there was a black Mercedes-Benz waiting for them at the entrance of the hotel.
When the two got into the car, the people who came to pick them up put on blindfolds. It seems that these guys are really strict about security.
The car circled around the city center for an unknown number of times before leaving the city, getting farther and farther away from the noisy city, and Jin Muchen's heart became quiet.
After driving for about half an hour, the car finally stopped, and then the two were taken out of the car, but the blindfolds were still not removed.
The two were led forward, and Jin Muchen only felt that he was brought into the room from the slightly cold outside, and a loud noise suddenly sounded in the originally silent ear.
Then the two men's blindfolds were removed, and a burst of dazzling light forced the two of them to close their eyes to get used to it for a while before slowly opening their eyelids.
In front of you is a splendid western-style auditorium with dome ceilings and huge crystal chandeliers. In the hall, there are crowds of people.
These people are all dressed up in all kinds of dresses~www.wuxiaspot.com~, but the only thing in common is that they all cover their faces, and everyone can't see each other's true faces.
It seems that these guys really know how to protect themselves.
Jin Muchen dragged Belinda's slightly damp hand, walked into the hall, and came to the front of the cold table. He picked up a glass of champagne and handed it to Belinda. Belinda was polite when she took it. Dried up half a cup.
To be honest, in the situation before, no matter how she adjusted her breathing, she couldn't be as calm as Jin Muchen.
Although she had only had close contact with the pirates not long ago, it was the first time she had come into such close contact with society b.
After half a glass of wine, my stomach warmed a lot, and my nervous state of mind gradually relaxed at this time.
"Yo! You guy, actually changed girlfriends!"
A gust of fragrant wind came from behind, Jin Muchen knew it was Sister Tao as soon as she heard the voice...(~^~)
