Grave Robber: Beginnings Fusion Hydra Cypress
Chapter 38: Let Lao Hai lose everything
There is an antique market in Jeju Heroes Mountain.
Like Panjiayuan in the capital, it is a place for underground antique trading, where people from all over the world gather.
Lao Hai has worked here all his life and is one of the oldest people on this street.
After Fatty and Wuxie returned from Xisha, under Ji Changsheng's order, they took action on the treasures brought out of the ancient tomb.
After thinking about it, among the experts they knew, only Lao Hai was the most suitable candidate.
So, we rushed to Hero Mountain without stopping.
After meeting Lao Hai, Wuxie quickly explained his purpose of coming without revealing any important information.
"Uncle Hai, please help us estimate the price of this batch of goods."
After speaking, he took out a jade belt from his backpack.
When Lao Hai saw the jade belt, his eyes nearly bulged out.
He didn't rush to discuss the price, but asked.
"Where did you get it?"
The fat man frowned, a little unhappy.
"Uncle Hai, why do you always forget the rules? What nonsense are you talking about?"
This industry is a shady business, so buyers and sellers usually don't ask each other, and the less they know, the better.
After Lao Hai swallowed a mouthful of saliva, he quickly asked the waiter to close the door, stood up and made a gesture of invitation.
"You two, come with me to the backyard to talk. There are few people there."
Clearly, this is a big deal.
The three of them came to the backyard, and Lao Hai handed over.
"I really made you two laugh. This thing of yours is so rare that I couldn't help but ask more questions. Please forgive me."
The fat man didn't care and waved his hand.
"Stop talking nonsense, let's estimate the price quickly."
Lao Hai carefully took the jade belt, looked at it carefully, and was amazed.
After playing with it for a long time, he said.
"As for this jade belt, I won't tell you lies. It's truly priceless!"
When the fat man heard this, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"How much is that worth?"
Lao Hai chuckled and did not answer directly.
But the conversation changed.
"But... such a hot item will have to be held back for at least three years before it can be sold."
"So the price will of course be lower."
The fat man asked impatiently: "How much is that?"
Uncle Hai thought for a while and stretched out four fingers.
"The most I can give is this number."
Wuxie looked at it and couldn't help but frown.
He said with a somewhat unhappy tone.
"Uncle Hai, are you too cruel? A few years ago, Caltex Auction House auctioned a jade belt from the Song Dynasty. The transaction price was 3.8 million, but you only offered 400,000?"
"You can't kill regular customers like this, it's too unethical!"
Uncle Hai quickly shook his head and explained.
"Mistress, you misunderstood. I didn't mean four hundred thousand."
"But... four million!"
As soon as these words came out, Wuxie couldn't help but froze.
The price far exceeded his estimate!
"I'll go! Is it so valuable?"
The fat man shouted excitedly and almost jumped up.
Lao Hai picked up the jade belt and explained it carefully.
"The satin on the jade belt is difficult to preserve. Usually only the jade slab is left, but this one has completely preserved the satin and gold threads."
"This is the best-looking jade belt I have ever seen, bar none!"
"Secondly, this thing should be from the Tang Dynasty, and it should be at the princely level!"
The fat man didn't understand these things, so he just asked stupidly.
"So this thing is valuable?"
A trace of disdain flashed across Lao Hai's eyes, and then he nodded again.
“Very valuable!”
"The price of four million is indeed a bit low, but this thing is too hot. I won't dare to sell it within three years."
"I hope you two can understand that if you are not in a hurry to wait for the money, this should be the most ideal offer."
After listening to Uncle Hai's words, Wuxie and Fatty looked at each other, and there were three words in their eyes.
Get rich!
In fact, if this jade belt were auctioned on the market, the transaction price would be at least 6 million or more!
Although Uncle Hai made a net profit of two million, the four million capital would have to be spent for three years, and he would also have to bear certain risks.
Therefore, the price is actually very reasonable and fair, and acceptable to both parties.
Wuxie nodded immediately.
"Okay, let's make the deal at the price you mentioned!"
When Uncle Hai heard this, he quickly stretched out his hand.
"Happy cooperation! I'll pay you right away."
As a result, Wuxie shook his head after shaking hands with him.
"Don't rush yet."
Uncle Hai couldn't help but feel nervous, fearing that they would regret it.
"Little Third Master, can't you trust me, Lao Hai?"
Wuxie smiled and put the backpack on the table.
"It is an honor for us juniors to cooperate with Uncle Hai."
"What I mean is, there are a few more things here. Let's take a look at them together, Uncle Hai."
Uncle Hai couldn't help but his eyes lit up and he asked excitedly.
"They all come from the same place?"
"Yes."
Uncle Hai felt ecstatic in his heart, he had caught a big fish now!
If they were all treasures from the prince's tomb, this business could make a lot of money!
He hurriedly opened his backpack and took out the treasures one by one.
But dozens of seconds later.
The excitement on Uncle Hai's face gradually disappeared and was replaced by one.
What a shock!
It completely exceeded his expectations!
There are more than a dozen antiques on the table, and any one you pick out is no worse than that jade belt!
Uncle Hai's eyes widened, and he couldn't help swallowing.
His voice became trembling.
"Young Master San, Fatty, are these all brought back from Xisha?"
"Yes, what's wrong? Uncle Hai, aren't these valuable?"
The fat man always cares about the price.
Wu Xie noticed something strange.
"Uncle Hai, is there any problem?"
Hearing this, Uncle Hai quickly shook his head, carefully picked up the treasure, and admired it one by one.
He kept making a sound of admiration.
"No problem, no problem at all!"
"It really opened my eyes, I've never seen it before!"
Hearing this, Fatty and Wu Xie laughed.
"Then you take a closer look and give a suitable price. We are not greedy."
After looking at all the dozen treasures, Uncle Hai hesitated.
He didn't speak for a long time. Looking at his expression, he seemed to be making an important decision.
Fatty was a little impatient and urged.
"Uncle Hai, can you please say something?"
"Are you still going to do this business?"
Uncle Hai sighed and showed a helpless look.
"Two gentlemen, tell the truth, of course I want to do this business."
"But the value of these things is too high. If I accept them all, I am afraid I will go bankrupt!"
"And these goods are too hot to handle. I can't sell them within three to five years, so I am a little embarrassed... accept them or not?"
The fat man was a little confused when he heard it.
"What do you mean by... go bankrupt?"
"How much are these things worth?"
After calculating carefully, Uncle Hai slowly gave the answer.
"A total of 18 pieces, the price I can offer is..."
"One hundred and thirty-five million!"
When they heard this answer, the fat man and Wu Xie were both stunned.
The two looked at each other and showed strange expressions.
