Chapter 135 First heard about the underground auction
In the old place of the black market, He Yuzhu found the stall owner.
The stall owner was haggling with someone. He Yuzhu didn't come forward to disturb him, he just stood aside and watched.
This man also saw He Yuzhu standing aside. Seeing He Yuzhu looking at him, he became wary and stopped bargaining with the stall owner. He was about to stand up and leave.
The street stall owner also recognized He Yuzhu and explained to the customer: "Don't be nervous, this is a regular customer of mine, not a bad person."
The man was dubious and very wary: "How about we talk about it another day?"
Seeing how wary he was, the street stall owner readily agreed: "That's okay. Anyway, the things belong to you, and you can sell them whenever you want."
"Then I'll leave first. The transaction is temporarily terminated." The man stood up and left.
Seeing the man leave, He Yuzhu knew that his transaction was ruined: "I'm sorry, I came at the wrong time and ruined your business."
The stall owner waved his hand and said, "It's okay. He will come again."
He Yuzhu: "That's good. Boss, please take out the jade and I'll take a look at the goods."
"Okay. I bring these jade stones with me every day, but they are heavy. Let's trade quickly, and I can relax for a while." The stall owner turned around and dragged out a big basket: "Look, this is all for now."
He Yuzhu squatted down to the basket and took out a piece of unprocessed Hetian jade from it. He held it in his hand and looked at it. He asked the stall owner for information: "I came today and the entrance started to charge again. I don't know anyone. This is What kind of great god is this?"
Stall owner: "What a great god! There are no tigers in the mountains, and monkeys are kings. The person in charge was just a little Luoluo. Ever since the leader of Young Master Gao's group came in, I don't know what happened during this period. The rest of these Little Luo Luo started to tremble, and I don’t know whose lap I hugged again?”
He Yuzhu picked up the jade pieces one by one and looked at them while saying: "Changed the door? As far as I know, didn't Mr. Gao not go in? There should be many people under his command who can make this happen?"
Stall owner: "I heard the news from others. Aren't there a lot of people watching the black market some time ago? Those people are all Gao Shao, and Gao Shao's home was stolen. Those people are looking for things."
He Yuzhu: "Ao? So it looks like we found it?"
Stall owner: "Not found."
He Yuzhu: "Then why are those people gone? Where did they go?"
Stall owner: "Hey. It is said that there was too much commotion and Young Master Gao was grounded. Word spread at home that he was going to be sent to the army. The people under him had no backing, so they had to disperse and join him. Door. There were several fights a few days ago to compete for the management rights of this black market. It was called chaos. Then a man named Zhao Saner appeared, led others to beat away the others, and took over the place. As for this Zhao San'er No one knows who is behind San'er."
He Yuzhu: "Who cares? As long as we can maintain good order."
Stall owner: "That's right."
At this time, He Yuzhu also looked over the jade stones and was quite satisfied with the quality: "Okay. This batch of jade stones is good. Where did you get them? I want them all."
Stall owner: "As long as you're satisfied. I collected this from a guy who specialized in carving jade from my ancestors. These are not very good ones. He should have a lot of good things in his hands. I'll give it a try after a while. Let me help you find some."
He Yuzhu: "That's a good feeling."
After the two bargained and determined the price, He Yuzhu handed all the rice in the basket to the stall owner and used money to make up for the rest.
He Yuzhu put the jade into the basket and said to the boss: "If the money and goods are cleared, continue to collect the jade for me."
The street stall owner made a lot of money this time, and he agreed to He Yuzhu's request: "Okay."
Just when He Yuzhu was about to leave, the stall owner stopped He Yuzhu again: "Wait a minute, is there something else that I don't know you are interested in?"
He Yuzhu: "What's the matter?"
Stall owner: "We have been dealing with each other for several years and know that you are interested in antiques. There will be an underground auction in a few days. I wonder if you are interested in going to see it."
Is this guy planning to dig a hole for me?
He Yuzhu asked calmly: "Underground auction? What's going on? Please introduce it to me."
Street stall owner: "Underground auctions are auctions that are held at irregular intervals and at no fixed location. Only invitations are issued after the time and place are temporarily determined. It is an antique auction that only invites people from our industry to participate."
He Yuzhu: "Then what do you mean by telling me?"
Street stall owner: "This auction is a bit special. Anyone who gets the invitation can bring one person in. And the capital verification this time starts from 10 small yellow croakers. Only gold is accepted. And it is said that this time there is the Nine Cauldrons used by Dayu to control the floods. One, Qingzhou Cauldron.”
Good guy, Dayu Jiuding, Qingzhou Ding? This is something that has not been confirmed by later generations. Whether it exists or not is a mystery.
He Yuzhu: "Boss, that's not how you fool people, right? One of the Nine Tripods used by Dayu to control floods, Qingzhou Tripod. It is doubtful whether Dayu's Nine Tripods really exist. Even if it does exist, who will sell it? Who will buy it? Do you want to get up?"
Stall owner: "Isn't this hearsay? But it's true that there are bronzes. They were just dug out of a large tomb."
He Yuzhu: "Isn't it unlucky to find someone who has just dug up a tomb?"
Street stall owner: "As long as you make money, I don't mind having it. What, do you want to go?"
He Yuzhu: "Are there many people going?"
Stall owner: "Quite a lot. This time they got a lot of things from the tomb. They wanted to sell a batch at home first and sell the rest abroad, so they sent out a lot of invitations this time. This is what I dare to tell you. Your reason. Normally, strangers would not be allowed in."
He Yuzhu: "There are many people going there, and there are many new faces. How can we keep this secret? If the news is leaked, won't we be punished by the work security?"
Stall owner: "No. The people who get the invitation letter first have been investigated, and these people must also vouch for the people they bring. If something goes wrong with the people they bring, the people who bring them will be I can’t survive in this circle.”
He Yuzhu: "Is there still a risk?"
Street stall owner: "There are risks, but they are controllable. Do you want to go?"
In fact, there is not much risk in this way. Underground auctions are another circle. I kind of want to see it. Look at what treasures there are. But you still have to think about it.
He Yuzhu: "You said it, I kind of want to go. When is the auction? I have to see if I have time that day?"
Stall owner: "In three days, it will start at 1 o'clock on Sunday night. If you want to go, just come here early and wait for me. I will take you there."
It seems that the location of the auction is near this black market? It shouldn't be very far away.
He Yuzhu: "Okay. Let's talk about it then. Whether I go or not, I will come and tell you."
Stall owner: "Okay, I'll wait for you that day."
He Yuzhu: "Is there anything else? I'll leave first. Remember to continue collecting jade for me."
Stall owner: "Okay."
He Yuzhu left the black market with the jade on his back.
