Chapter 39 Antique Underground Black Market

black market!

When it comes to antiques, we have to mention the underground black market for antiques.

The underground black market for antiques in China has always existed, and it has been banned repeatedly. Especially in the prosperous collection year, there is a tendency to flood it. Not to mention people who have stepped into the collection circle, it is ordinary civilians, more or less I've heard some rumors, it's like an underground boxing market or an underground racing car.

Compared with auction sales, there is undoubtedly a huge risk in underground black market transactions. Although the auction company will not make a promise to guarantee that the antiques are absolutely real or free from other defects, the auction company can provide a certificate of the lot to prove the source of the cultural relics, etc. National and provincial experts can be invited to appraise, so that the quality of the cultural relics obtained can be guaranteed.

There is no guarantee for underground black market transactions.

Chen Ran has also stepped into the circle of antiques, so he has heard of the black market, but he has heard of it, but he doesn't know the details. He only knows that the underground black market is basically located in a remote place, where there is a mix of good and bad people. I dare not go to this muddy water.

Hearing that Yan Ruyu said that she was going to the black market, Chen Ran was a little bit taken aback. Such a little girl went to the black market and was still not accepted... This thought disappeared after a flash. Naturally, Yan Ruyu is not an ordinary person. Since she is so famous, Then it is obvious that he must have dealt with these three religions and nine streams, not to mention that there are quite powerful bodyguards following him, so naturally nothing will happen.

As for the black market, to be honest, Chen Ran is also very interested, but he is interested, but he is very aware of his own strength, whether it is money or vision, he is not qualified now.

In the black market, if you don't have enough eyesight, you have to drill [-]% of the time, so in the short term, he won't be in this muddy water.

In fact, every sum of money he earns now is very difficult, and it is also very important. He can't afford the eye-catching tuition fees, so he can only be more cautious... In addition...he really wants to go on the road of collecting is far away, but he is not blind!

Sensing Chen Ran's cautiousness and hesitation, Yan Ruyu was not displeased, but nodded secretly, and a gleam of light flashed in her eyes. She smiled playfully at Chen Ran: "Let's go, two girls." These places are inconvenient after all, I hope you can accompany me there."

It has to be said that Yan Ruyu's lethality is quite powerful. Although the clothes of Yan Ruyu in front of her are very ordinary, this ordinary attire can't conceal her natural beauty and incomparable beauty. The whiteness is rosy, the expression is soft and serene, everything seems to be perfect, just looking at it, it makes people's heart throbbing, giving birth to a feeling of love and pity.

And from her eyes, it can be seen that this girl must have a lot of life experience, but she has no worldly scheming and worries, and there are two kinds of things that cannot coexist at all on her face. beauty.

The beauty of innocence and maturity!

It's like a fairy, but was thrown into the [-]th level of hell, and after going through the experience of the [-]th level of hell, she returned to the fairyland, and now she passed the human world when she returned to the fairyland!

It's really exciting!

"Then just wait for me!"

Chen Ran thought about it for a while, then agreed, and turned around to go back to the house to tidy up.

"Xiaoyu, it's not enough with me here, why take her with you!"

After Chen Ran turned back to the room, the middle-aged woman carrying a black bag frowned and said to Yan Ruyu.

Yan Ruyu turned around and smiled sweetly: "Sister Ru, it's not like you don't know about our experience in Pingzhou Ghost City last time. It's always more convenient to have a man with you!"

"Those people were beaten to the knees begging for mercy by me!" Sister Ru snorted.

Yan Ruyu shook her head: "One thing more is worse than one thing less!"

"Then why don't we let our own people follow?" Sister Ru said slightly dissatisfied, this man, she always looked a little suspicious, there is no such coincidence in the world, it must not be sent by other forces to secretly intervene 'Those who are by Miss's side have ulterior motives!

"Can they palm my eyes for me?" Yan Ruyu smiled and gave Sister Ru a look.

Sister Ru said disdainfully: "I think he is just a blind cat who encountered a dead mouse, besides, with you here, I'm afraid of punching eyes!"

"What happened yesterday doesn't count? For those who play antiques, no one can guarantee that they won't punch their eyes!" Yan Ruyu fell silent as she spoke, with waves of thoughts surging in her eyes, and she didn't know What are you thinking.

Sister Ru opened her mouth to say something, but when she saw Yan Ruyu fell silent, she closed her mouth.

"How about this..." After being silent for a moment, Yan Ruyu stretched out a Qianqian finger and pointed at the tip of her white and rosy nose, muttering slightly: "Go and investigate his background, you also know that I have been I am looking for a Hawkeye spokesperson who satisfies me. My family has long been dissatisfied with me running out every day. Recently, the pressure has become tighter and tighter. I must solve the spokesperson problem as soon as possible. After all, after I find a spokesperson, I want to let him It will take at least two or three years to get started!"

"Xiaoyu, do you mean that you chose him?" Sister Ru looked at Yan Ruyu in surprise, then glanced at her mouth: "What's so good about him, why didn't I see it!"

"It can't be said that he was selected, he can only be regarded as one of the preselected candidates, but at present, he is the one I am most satisfied with, but after all, the time is still short, and we need to observe for a while..."

"Mr. Yan, it is said that you have to bring cash to enter the antique black market?"

Chen Ran didn't make Yan Ruyu and Sister Ru wait any longer, and after a while, the three of them went downstairs together.After going downstairs, Sister Ru went to the parking lot to drive. Chen Ran and Yan Ruyu were standing downstairs waiting. Although they decided to accompany Yan Ruyu to the black market, Chen Ran had no plans to make a move. It is inconvenient for a woman, and he will definitely have to come forward when something happens, so he wants to learn more about the rules of the black market so as not to make mistakes. cause trouble.

"That's for sure!" Yan Ruyu smiled gently: "There are university professors, collectors, wealthy business owners, and tomb robbers who go shopping in the black market... In short, there are all kinds of people. This is the identity on the surface, but in the black market, everyone's identity is the same, no one knows anyone, even if they know each other, if they don't come together, they have to pretend not to know each other, otherwise, they will be misunderstood by the organizer , and at the time of the transaction, everyone trades in person, so naturally there will be no credit card machine or anything, even if you bring a check, it won’t work.”

The check is in the open, and someone needs to go to the bank to pick it up. For these shady people, how can there be cash to be safe!

"Then can the organizer guarantee the safety of the participants?" This aspect is also what Chen Ran is most concerned about. It's not that he is afraid, but that if such a thing really happens, he should be prepared for it.

Yan Ruyu is very satisfied with Chen Ran's attitude of asking questions when he doesn't understand. The biggest fat sheep in the collection world are hypocrites who don't know how to pretend to understand and want to save face. They are the ones who slaughtered them. She also knows everything about Chen Ran's questions: "General Generally speaking, there is no danger. Those who can hold an underground black market also have certain strength. Whether it is black or official, the joints that should be opened up are basically opened up. Before the auction is completed, it will never be allowed. If something goes wrong, once the organizer collects the money and leaves, what happens next is out of their control."

After Yan Ruyu answered Chen Ran's question, she shared her experience in this area with Chen Ran. In the five or six years since her debut, she has traveled all over the world, and she has never experienced anything or seen anyone... "Antique Black Market Most of the things that appear on the Internet, the auction price will not be too high, and everyone is carrying cash, so they will have scruples. First, it is not safe to be in a remote place. Therefore, when bidding, even if you like something, there will be a bottom line, and you don’t dare to show off too much, that’s exactly the case, as long as you have the vision, take a picture of the thing with courage, if the thing is right , you can earn a lot of money..."

The benefits of the black market are not limited to this, but there are many more. If there were not so many benefits, the black market for antiques would not be as popular as it is now.

These experiences of Yan Ruyu are undoubtedly very valuable to Chen Ran, who is just entering the collection field.

Everyone knows that if you want to learn something, you have to read more books, but in fact, the things in the books are just written materials. There are many inside stories and experiences that can only be understood by personal experience. Like antiques, it is obviously more In this way, why the public feels that antiques are mysterious is because some things cannot be announced to the public, nor can they be formed into written documents.

Knowing people don't talk about it, because it can only be understood but not expressed in words, that is, people in the circle tacitly understand each other, and people outside the circle stretch their heads to watch, that is, to watch the excitement, but the real way is to watch not come out.

Yan Ruyu has the heart to teach, and Chen Ran has the heart to learn. In this way, Chen Ran will naturally benefit a lot. What he has not realized at the moment, at least not now, is how much Yan Ruyu's experience will bring him. The benefits, at least, will at least allow him to take few detours on this road.

Chen Ran not only listens, but at the same time, he also integrates with the books he reads in his mind. This is also his advantage. With his strong memory, as long as Yan Ruyu mentions any aspect, what he sees is related to this aspect. The information immediately flooded into his mind - one by one comparison, one by one confirmation, one by one to solve the 'confusion', one by one perception... Later, even Yan Ruyu was impressed by Chen Ran's strong learning ability and progress. Surprised, it also made her choice more biased towards Chen Ran.

Chen Ran's progress is obvious. In this short period of time, his cognition of antiques has made a qualitative leap. Even if he can't be called an expert, he still leaves many people behind.

And a person's temperament is obviously related to a person's connotation. Otherwise, how can I say that this person has goods in his stomach, but he looks different. After Chen Ran has made this qualitative leap, his whole person His temperament has also changed, becoming more reserved and stable... On Longhai Road in Zhongdu, a yellow Land Rover off-road vehicle drove by quickly and stopped at a car on Longhai Road. Stand in front of the gate.After the car pulled over slowly, Chen Ran got out of the car. He raised his eyes and took a look. Generally speaking, whether it's a train station or a bus station, there are quite a lot of people. There are all kinds of people like ticket dealers. , this bus station is no exception.

Chen Ran came in a Land Rover, but there were no ticket dealers to solicit customers.

After sweeping his gaze, Chen Ran stood leaning against the Land Rover. When he was in the car, he had already made an appointment with the other party according to the contact information Yan Ruyu gave, and now he was going to collect evidence.

There are many rules in the black market, without those guides, it is impossible to go.

After waiting for about five or six minutes, a young man wearing a cowboy hat walked towards Chen Ran.

Chen Ran made a gesture, and the young man's face was immediately filled with a smile, as if he had met in a foreign land, he ran over with a smile on his face: "Where are you going, brother?"

"Wasp Town!"

Chen Ran said lightly.

The young man didn't make a sound, just smiled, but his eyes looked in the window through the window glass. Chen Ran understood that what he meant was to see people. He knocked on the glass, and the glass fell down. The young man took a look, Seeing the two women, he smiled, turned around and smiled at Chen Ran: "Brother, I have three tickets here, which are 200 yuan, 500 yuan, and 1000 yuan. Which one do you want?"

"Is there any difference?" Chen Ran didn't hear Yan Ruyu say this.

"There's no difference!" The young man smiled and shook his head: "It's just for auspicious numbers. Auspicious numbers are more expensive, common ones are cheaper, and unlucky ones are even cheaper!"

Hearing what the young man said, Chen Ran directly found out 500 yuan and handed it to the young man. He didn't care if it was auspicious or unlucky, and Yan Ruyu presumably didn't care either. .

The young man handed Chen Ran a card, and after collecting the money, his voice became more eager: "Brother, do you understand some rules?"

Chen Ran ignored him, and looked down at the card. The card looked like a business card, but there was only one number on it——NO.12!

Presumably number six and number eight are auspicious, Chen Ran thought, and when he was thinking this way, he opened the door of the passenger seat and got into the car.

After a while, the Land Rover flew away...Driving on the Songcheng Road from Zhongdu to Kaifeng, after turning seven turns, finally arrived at the destination. After entering the village on the downhill road, you can see a lot of cars parked at the intersection of the village.

Sister Ru also leaned the car on the side of the road, Yan Ruyu, Chen Ran, and Sister Ru all got out of the car, followed the small fork in the vegetable garden for a few turns before arriving at the door of a family, this is a very ordinary family. The residents of the house are one-story houses with a large yard, which is actually a wheat threshing field in the countryside.

On the edge of the threshing field, there are two people sitting there very casually at intervals, chatting seemingly casually, but they are obviously patrolmen. Three or four young people stood up and stopped the three of them.
