Putting his head down on the tea cup, he frowned and said: "Yunfeng, you should always remember one thing to take precautions before it happens. Fatty Zhao is a second-hand dealer. In fact, he makes money just like us, all because of his courage. If you want to get rich, you don't have any courage.
No. But I guess he’s not telling lies. This business is too big, and it’s not feasible to rely on Moro Street alone to run the business in Hong Kong.”
Moro Street is the most famous antique street in Hong Kong. It is divided into upper and lower streets. The Moro Street mentioned above is actually Upper Moro Street. There are dozens of antique shops on both sides of the narrow street. In the early years, it was really full of national treasures.
Yes, just looking at the quantity of goods, it is not as good as Panjiayuan and Shenyang Dao, but when it comes to the quality of things, it is inferior to the latter.
It was during this operation that I first came into contact with the Moro Street antique circle. In the early years, there were many items that were transferred to Sotheby's at Christie's through Moro Street. Many people may not know that the Yuan blue and white Guigu Zi was auctioned for more than 200 million in 2005.
The Xiashan jar appeared in Moruo Street in July 2002. Later, I heard from a friend that it seemed that a man named Lin from the Mainland bought it from Moro Street for 14 million yuan. It must have been at home for less than three years.
, it was put up for auction again and sold directly for 260 million.
Then talk about the situation at that time.
I thought for a while and asked: "What do you mean by that head?"
He put his head in thought for a moment and then said: "The Changchun Society has not noticed us for the time being. This is a perfect opportunity to escape. I am going to give up 30% of my profit and cooperate with one person. With the help of this person's connections, we may be able to do it."
I looked up and asked, "Who is it?"
He tapped his head on the table twice and said, "The ghost hand cuts the dragon's veins, the underground emperor of the northern tomb robbers, Yao Wenzhong."
I was stunned.
I had always heard of this person, but I had only come into contact with his niece Yao Yumen. I was not sure, so I asked the boss if he could do it.
"Almost, let's try it."
.
At about eight o'clock in the evening on the third day, there was a sound of brakes outside the door, and a Santana stopped in front of the hotel.
A man in his fifties got off Santana. He was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, with a restrained breath and a calm face.
He pointed his head at the man and said respectfully, "I'm tired from the journey. Wang has prepared a banquet. Master, please invite me."
This man in his fifties is Yao Yumen's uncle, Yao Wenzhong. This is the first time I have met him.
I learned from the boss that this man always acted alone. Of course he also had a team, but most of the people in the team had never seen him.
In the evening, there were four people accompanying me at the hotel, Boss Sun, Sister Hong and me.
Yao Wenzhong did not touch the bowls and chopsticks. After he took his seat, he said calmly, "Wang Boss, have we met twice before? My niece told me what happened to you."
The leader said: "Yes, Master, the first time we met was at a Northern Party gathering in Hainan, and the second time was at the Canton Fair on the second floor of Panjiayuan Warwick Hotel the year before last."
I used to think that Baotou was very familiar with Master Yao, but today it seems that is not the case. Baotou was familiar with Yao Yumen, but he only met her uncle Yao Wenzhong twice.
Yao Wenzhong twirled the empty tea cup and sighed, "After working all my life, I have seen corpses raised, but corpses with Yinzi for thousands of years are too rare. In order to survive the Yinzi in the Western Zhou Dynasty, the structure of the earth veins, the temperature environment, Feng Shui Yin and Yang
, a skilled craftsman is indispensable. Yumen told me, Wang Boss, that you blew up the entrance of the cave?"
He nodded and said, "This is the first time that I, Wang Xiansheng, have seen that thing. If I hadn't been well prepared and called for help, I'm afraid we would all have to go inside."
"Let's talk about it later when we have the opportunity. Let's not mention this for now," said the head sternly: "Master, as I told you on the phone, there are people in Hong Kong who can eat our products, but it is very troublesome to send them there. We cooperate.
With the help of your connections, I, Wang Xiansheng, will give you 30% of the payment after I receive the payment, what do you think?"
Yao Wenzhong grinned after hearing this and said with a smile: "Thirty percent. Wang is so generous. To be honest, no one else can help you with this matter, but I am a bit thin on the local waterways, although it will take some effort."
It’s difficult, but I think it should be feasible.”
The head laughed and said, "Master and Mr. Wang have the same idea, take the waterway and take a boat directly to Zhonggang. As long as we and the goods arrive at Zhonggang, there is no need to trouble Master, I have my own way."
In this way, the two of us decided on the plan while having a meal. Boss Sun added some suggestions from time to time, thinking about how to ensure that our goods were foolproof.
You must know that this 30% profit is not a small amount, it is 30% of the total price of a batch of goods. No matter how famous Yao Wenzhong is, he is still unconventional. To put it bluntly, this person values money. (Thirteen years later, he was shot, too.
Die on a word of money.)
From Shunde to Hong Kong, it is definitely not appropriate to take those things by plane or train. The local fishery industry in Shunde is developed, and one of the companies called Hongxing Fishery Company has a plan like this.
The second brother cannot take care of himself, so the third brother will stay to take care of the second brother and stay in the hotel.
Boss Boss and Boss Sun flew over empty-handed. After arriving in Hong Kong in advance, they would go to Moro Street to meet a local broker. Sister Hong and I would follow the boat and look at the goods. As for how to get to China Hong Kong City by water, then
It depends on the arrangements made by Yao Wenzhong and the Hongxing Fishery Company.
The agreed departure time was midnight the day after tomorrow. Yao Wenzhong said that a pickup truck would come over to help load the goods. He was responsible for the overall arrangements. After loading the goods and getting on the ship, he left it to fate.
The next morning my eldest brother and I found two large wooden boxes. We wrapped the copper goods in bubble wrap and coded them one by one. We stuffed the gaps with newspapers. Finally, we covered the lids with wooden strips and sealed them with iron nails.
I know that once I leave Shunde for this trip, I'm afraid I won't come back.
At this time, I am still thinking about someone.
Li Jing.
I want to leave Meet her before leaving because maybe you won't see her again.
The night before I set off to board the ship, I walked to the door of Li Jing’s house alone.
Looking at the wooden door in front of me, I stretched out my hand several times and pulled it back.
The scene of Li Jing throwing a pillow and scolding me is still vivid in my mind.
Ten minutes later, I sighed and turned around to leave.
"Xiang Xiang Yunfeng, is that you? Suddenly a familiar voice came from behind me.
I stopped and turned my head.
After not seeing her for more than a month, Li Jing's face looked a little haggard. At first she was fine, but slowly, her eyes began to turn red.
Li Jing ran over and stood in front of me.
She bit her lower lip and asked me: "Xiang Yunfeng, why don't you dare to knock on the door?"
"me."
"I gotta go."
"Where are you going? Aren't you coming back?"
"Probably not coming back."
Li Jing said with red eyes, "Where's the money? You won't come back and ask for the 50,000 yuan I borrowed? You won't go to school!"
"No, I don't want that money anymore." I thought for a while and added, "Li Jing, I did lie to you before. You guessed it right. I'm not a middle school student. My hometown is in Mohe. I only went to
I haven’t gone to school since the second grade of junior high school.”
After hearing this, Li Jing suddenly became emotional. She grabbed my arm and shouted loudly: "Then tell me! What do you do? Are you a drug dealer or a loan shark? If you don't want 50,000 yuan, you don't want it."
