"Mr. Zhuang, it's like this. According to the information we have, this batch of cultural relics is very likely to have flowed into the black market of cultural relics in Beijing, and will be auctioned in the near future. We would like to invite Mr. Zhuang to participate in this black market auction.
, you don’t need to do anything, just help us identify whether there are cultural relics from Henan among the cultural relics photographed on the black market..."
Director Wu wanted to push the envelope again in Zhuang Rui, so he quickly made it clear. He was actually a little annoyed in his heart. There were so many well-known cultural relic experts in Beijing, why did Xiao Miao have to find this young man? Although
I have also heard about some of Zhuang Rui's deeds, but Director Wu still doesn't quite believe in Zhuang Rui's expertise in antiques.
"Hey, now that you have grasped the situation, why don't you just plunder the black market and be done with it? The black market is illegal anyway, so you have enough reasons to exercise your power..."
When Zhuang Rui heard this, he felt a little relieved. At least he was not asked to deal with tomb robbers. After experiencing a black market auction, Zhuang Rui knew very well that those who opened the black market also had very good hands and eyes.
More importantly, in order to ensure their reputation, black market security issues do not need to be considered.
However, Zhuang Rui is still a little reluctant. If he is asked to go hunting for treasures on the black market, that's no problem. But as a police informant to identify cultural relics, why does he feel so awkward? There are so many cultural relic experts in Beijing. What are they doing?
You have to look for yourself.
"Mr. Zhuang, the venue for this cultural relics black market is usually temporarily determined. We have no way of knowing where the antiques and cultural relics are usually hidden. It is also difficult to define whether this black market is illegal. We just want to make sure.
Whether that batch of unearthed cultural relics will appear in the auction, and then follow up based on this clue..."
Director Wu patiently explained to Zhuang Rui, almost without saying that they did not care about the black market for cultural relics. This kind of black market is indeed difficult to check. Once the people who organize the black market have backgrounds, they often grab a group of them and there is no doubt.
God still needs to be released.
Secondly, it is difficult to convict this kind of behavior. Selling cultural relics? Others don’t admit it. What we call exchanges between Tibetans and tax evasion? That is under the administration of industrial and commercial taxation. Why are you police officers meddling in other people’s business?
Therefore, the black market for cultural relics is almost semi-open in Beijing’s antique circles. Many well-known collection experts and collectors have gone to those places to hunt for objects. Even if they are caught, as long as what you buy is not a national second-class or above cultural relic.
Or bronzes, the police station does not even have the right to take them back. As a result, public security officers often turn a blind eye to this kind of black market.
Just like more than a month ago, Fatty Jin invited Zhuang Rui to go to the antique black market, but Zhuang Rui happened to be busy at that time, otherwise, he would have had the opportunity to come into contact with the black market in the capital circle.
"Director Wu, I'm just here to help you observe whether the cultural relics stolen from Henan will appear in the black market, right?" Zhuang Rui was a little tempted after listening to Director Wu's explanation, because there is no danger in going to the black market.
, maybe you can even get a few items.
"Yes, if you agree, I will give you the relevant information about the stolen cultural relics. If those cultural relics appear on the black market, you can just notify us after the black market is over."
Director Wu answered Zhuang Rui's question with certainty. What they want to do is to follow the clues and find out the boss behind the theft of cultural relics, instead of looking for trouble in the black market. Speaking of which, they have already mastered the situation of the boss behind the black market.
It's in my hands, but I can't do anything to others.
"Director Wu, there are so many cultural relic appraisal experts in the capital, why did you choose a newcomer like me?" Zhuang Rui glanced at Miao Feifei when he asked this question, and he estimated that this matter was probably spread by her.
Sure enough, Director Wu also glanced at Officer Miao and said: "We have all watched Mr. Zhuang's private treasure appraisal program in Jinan. There is no problem from a professional point of view. Moreover, Xiao Miao is going to enter the black market this time. How old are you?"
Almost, so..."
Director Wu doesn't have the time to watch any folk treasure appraisal programs. Miao Feifei said this, but Director Wu inquired about Zhuang Rui through the channels of friends in the antique shop and found out that he had found something in Panjiayuan not long ago.
A piece of precious pottery should have at least two brushes.
Moreover, those qigong masters these days have been exposed a long time ago, and they would not dare to go to the TV station without any real evidence.
"Miao Feifei, are you going too?" Zhuang Rui frowned upon hearing this. This police officer has an excessive sense of justice. If something goes wrong by then, it will be difficult to handle.
However, Zhuang Rui would never have thought that even if he, the appraisal expert, did not go, Officer Miao would go.
In fact, the police had already decided on a candidate, an old expert, and that expert was very willing to cooperate with the police's actions. However, Miao Feifei was unwilling. Although her appearance could easily lead others to have fantasies, how could she pretend to be a mistress?
None! That’s why Zhuang Rui was chosen as the candidate.
Originally, there was no need for Officer Miao to follow this kind of thing, and she was not involved in the black market. Why should she follow him? However, this case was supervised by the Ministry of Public Security, and the standards were relatively high. Naturally, the rewards for the investigators were also very high.
Rich.
If the case is solved in the future, Officer Miao's deeds of dressing up in disguise and going deep into the enemy's internal investigation will naturally be written up in a big book, and it can also be used as a capital for his promotion. And because there is no danger, this easy benefit is naturally a matter of course.
It fell on Deputy Captain Miao.
However, Officer Miao didn't think too much about it. She didn't care at all whether she had meritorious service or not.
It's just that Miao Feifei has stayed in the criminal police team in the past few months, but all the work she does is logistics support. Whatever is missing in the office all day long, and the food arrangements for the night staff, these are all under the control of Deputy Captain Miao.
Miao Feifei was so depressed that now that she had this opportunity, Vice Captain Miao naturally did her duty and took action personally.
"Why are you frowning? Just say whether you want to go or not?"
When Miao Feifei saw that Zhuang Rui heard the news about her going, she immediately frowned and felt very unhappy.
"No!" Zhuang Rui glanced at her, what's the point of scaring a friend?
"Zhuang Rui, just treat it as a personal favor. I haven't asked you for anything. Don't go there. I was the one who applied for your white lion's urban dog breeding license. Why did you turn your back on me so quickly?"
Seeing Zhuang Rui's abrupt reply, Miao Feifei softened, and then said: "Isn't your courtyard house almost finished? You also have to pick up some better antiques to put on display. You spend money on the black market.
We don’t care about what you buy.”
Hearing what Miao Feifei said, Zhuang Rui began to hesitate. From the bottom of his heart, he also wanted to experience the antique black market in the capital. He was now considered a collector. Although he had found many good things in the past,
Because they were short of money, they were all sold, and the items left in the house are a bit too shabby now. There is only a Longshan black pottery and a repaired Jun kiln porcelain, which need to be improved.
Nowadays, the first choice for those who play antiques is the objects sold in regular auction houses. The authenticity is more guaranteed. The second choice is to go to the antique market. Although there are many genuine items there, there are more fake ones, which is basically a blind choice.
When a cat encounters a dead mouse, it all depends on luck.
The black market for antiques is different. The antiques that can be put up for auction here have all been authenticated by certain professionals. Although it is not necessarily guaranteed to be 100% authentic, there are many more genuine items than in the antique market, and the prices are higher than at auctions.
It's cheap, so this kind of occasion is a favorite place for antique lovers.
After Zhuang Rui thought about it for a while, he said: "It's not impossible to go here, but I don't know where the black market is and I haven't been there before. Others may not invite me, right?"
After hearing Zhuang Rui's words, Director Wu quickly said: "Don't worry about this. Mr. Zhuang, you are now also a very famous person in the capital's antique industry. We can ask someone who has participated in the black market to bring it up and say what you want."
Participate and the person organizing the black market will definitely contact you."
After hearing this, Zhuang Rui nodded and said: "Okay, I can go, but there is a requirement. Officer Miao is in the black market and can only see but not talk. Otherwise, I would rather not go."
"Zhuang Rui, are you the police or am I the police?"
When Miao Feifei heard Zhuang Rui's words, she immediately opened her eyes, but then softened and said: "Okay, anyway, I just went to see if there are any stolen antiques there, I just want to see and tell, okay?"
But if you want to buy something yourself, prepare a sum of money yourself. Our case handling funds are very tight and we don’t have any money to give you."
Miao Feifei's words made Zhuang Rui a little bit dumbfounded. He didn't expect the police to pay for the things he bought. How could such a good thing happen? He nodded and said: "Okay, let's put it this way, I really have something to do today. Let's make an appointment."
After the time, please call me to inform me."
"Mr. Zhuang, there is no way to determine the time when this black market will be held. The time and location are temporarily determined by the black market organizers. They will call you directly when the time comes."
Director Wu's words made Zhuang Rui stunned for a moment, but if you think about it carefully, if everything is grasped by the police, no matter what the background of the black market boss is, he may not be able to handle it after being caught several times in a row.
.
"Zhuang Rui, you agreed. When you get back to the black market, call me. You have to inform me immediately..." Miao Feifei acted as if she was even busier than Zhuang Rui. After speaking, she pulled Director Wu away.
.
"Hey, I said, you won't pay for me to do something for you?"
It wasn't until the two of them left the western restaurant that Zhuang Rui realized that he was so grateful that the sisters were showing off to him again.
