Chapter 220 Opponent
After listening to Luo Daochang's words, Wang Lun said, "There is no need to prepare something specifically for dealing with the red unicorn, there is no need for that." ”
Luo Daochang was a little speechless.
This person's tone of voice seems to be quite big.
Wang Lun saw what Luo Daochang was thinking, and said, "To call it a unicorn is to elevate it, this kind of thing is actually a flame snake with horns growing on the top of its head." ”
"It's still far from becoming a dragon, which may only exist in legends, and the unicorn is as famous as the dragon. ”
When Daoist Luo heard this, he couldn't help but wonder how Wang Lun knew so clearly.
However, the real name of the red unicorn is actually the flame snake, so when I hear it, the snake is indeed weaker than the unicorn, it seems that for the monster in the hot pool, there is not so much fear?
At this time, Luo Daochang heard Wang Lun ask: "Is there a place near here where I can buy the best jade? ”
"The best jade?"
Luo Daochang was puzzled by Wang Lun's desire to buy the best jade, but he still thought about it seriously and searched for where this kind of jade might be found nearby.
Jade is graded.
The best jade, even in the time-honored jade shops in the city, may not be available, so you really have to think about it.
After thinking for a while, Luo Daochang shook his head: "Master Wang, I can't guarantee which jade shop can sell the best jade. ”
Wang Lun said, "Then take me to a jade shop that you think is better, and we'll ask the shopkeeper." ”
It can only be like this, Luo Daochang nodded, and then showed Wang Lun the way.
Twenty minutes later, Wang Lun drove to a jade shop called Guotai Jade Store in Suzhou City, Luo Daochang said that this is a large jade group with a shop in every big city in the country, although it has only been opened for a long time, but it is a sign of Suzhou's famous jade that cannot be ignored.
Wang Lun walked in and communicated with the store manager, and found that there were indeed superb jade prices of more than 10 million for sale, but they were all jade pendants and jade bracelets, and there were no jade boxes.
What he needed was a container made of the finest jade, no matter what shape it was, and it needed to be able to hold a certain amount of things.
In the end, there was no way, the store manager called the manager, and the manager searched through the online search of national chain stores, but failed to find something that met Wang Lun's requirements.
The manager was surprised. I don't know why Wang Lun used such a strange thing.
"Sir, this kind of jade box like you need should not be available in a store like ours that mainly focuses on jade jewelry. The manager said politely.
Even Luo Daochang couldn't guess what Wang Lun was going to do. Going to Yantan may have to face the attack of the super powerful Yan Snake, and he doesn't prepare things like guns and ammunition, magic weapons, shields, etc., related to offense or defense, but he only needs a jade box, and the reason is that if Wang Lun doesn't say it, he can't think of breaking his head.
"Then where might there be the jade box I need?" Wang Lun asked.
The other party should be regarded as a group of people who have the most information in the Suzhou jade industry, and he can see that the people are good, and he wants to learn about it from the other party.
"Sir, what you need is a jade box made of the best jade, the size of the jade is very large, so the price will definitely be very high, I think even if it is a century-old jade shop, there will be no one, unless it is in the hands of a collector. ”
The manager analyzed.
Luo Daochang pouted: "I guess you don't know which collector has this kind of jade box in his hand, and we have very limited time, so we can't ask one by one." ”
The manager shook his head and smiled, "There's really a way." ”
He didn't sell it, and directly said the way.
"Every year in Suzhou, there is a special underground auction that is limited to things made of jade, gold, silver, etc., and the collector takes it out and uses the money as a transaction, and both sides take what they need. ”
When the manager spoke, his voice was deliberately lowered so that no one outside the three of them could hear it.
When Wang Lun heard the words "underground auction" and "each according to his needs", he judged some eyebrows.
"This auction will not be seen in disgrace, and most of the auctioned things will come from the wrong way?" Wang Lun asked directly.
The manager nodded.
If it is an antique that comes from the right place, such as an antique with an "identity certificate", even if the collector wants to get rid of it, he will seek to cooperate with a regular auction house, at least there will be no hidden dangers.
However, there are many collectors who will always get something through various ways that are not suitable for seeing the light, but they don't want to smash it in their hands, and such underground auctions came into being to solve their problems.
In underground auctions, only money is allowed to be used as bargaining chips, and collectors who want to sell things that do not see the light of day will actively participate, while some buyers who can afford to digest these things will be willing to take a certain risk and bid on these things.
"When will this auction take place?" Wang Lun asked.
The underground auction, which is dominated by gold, silver and jade collections, may really have the jade box he needs.
"It's tomorrow. ”
The manager introduced, "It is set up at the time of today's private exchange meeting in the upper circle of Suzhou, after all, after today's private exchange meeting, some guests who have not bought their favorite items will try their luck." ”
Wang Lun naturally didn't mind waiting for one more day, and after thanking the manager, he left the store.
Subsequently, he went to several other well-known jade shops in Suzhou and asked about the situation, but he couldn't find the jade box he needed, but from one of them, he got the same news as the manager of the Guotai jade store.
In addition, another piece of information that Wang Lun remembered was that of the five jade shops he went to, except for Cathay, the remaining four had a noble lady with outstanding temperament who had been patronized with bodyguards before he went.
And what this lady wants to buy when she enters the store happens to be a jade box!
It was precisely because he was impressed by this noble lady that he also needed a very strange superb jade box, so the people in the store informed him of this situation when he inquired.
Luo Daochang felt that there were all kinds of wonders in the world, and there were really people in the same place and at the same time who wanted to buy the same thing as Wang Lun.
This is not to buy a toothbrush, toothpaste, refrigerator color TV, but a very special superb jade box.
But Daoist Luo didn't understand what the best jade box was for, so he didn't think too much about it.
Wang Lun suspected that maybe someone thought of going with him.
Maybe tomorrow's underground auction and the subsequent trip to Yantan will meet with that lady.
......
The next day, Wang Lun and Luo Daochang appeared at a resort around the lake and came to one of the estates.
This is the place where the underground auction will be held today, but when Wang Lun and Luo Daochang were about to enter, a strong man stretched out his hand to stop him, and said angrily: "Please show your invitation." ”
As part of the security forces, he didn't need to be too polite to these guests, because this in itself was a shady auction, and the hired people here were not good in themselves, and they didn't have a good temper, and as for the service attitude, to hell with it.
They don't need to have any service attitude.
Luo Dao Chang stepped forward and said unhurriedly: "We don't have an invitation, but you can go and report it, and say that the cultivators of the Thousand Methods Sect are going to participate in this auction." ”
In front of Wang Lun, he could only hold his tail, but at this moment, he was the demeanor of a big man.
The security guard saw that the old man dressed as a Taoist priest had an extraordinary bearing, the key was that he spoke domineeringly, and without an invitation, he said that he did not want to participate in this auction, but to participate in this auction, and it seemed that as long as he reported it, the organizer would definitely agree quickly.
Therefore, he didn't dare to be too arrogant, what if these two people were friends with the organizers?
At this time, a man who got out of a luxury car in the rear, with a bright head, probably found Luo Daochang, sped up a little, and after confirming his identity after coming up, he hurriedly greeted with a smile.
"Daoist Luo, you're here too!"
"It turned out to be Boss Chen. Compared with the enthusiasm and respect of the other party, Luo Daochang is a bit like an elder and a boss.
Boss Chen handed over the invitation card and made a "please" gesture to Luo Daochang and Wang Lun, meaning that the two of them were invited to go in first.
Luo Daochang glanced at the strong man.
The strong man didn't say a word, and quickly stepped aside.
Since he is a person that Boss Chen is familiar with, and it seems that his status is still very high, he can't afford to hold on to the invitation, just let the two of them in.
The three of them walked in and came to the transformed hall.
The hall was magnificent, and before the auction began, there was a large empty space in the middle for people to drink, and many people were talking to each other with wine glasses.
"Luo Daochang. ”
"Luo Daochang is also here. ”
"Is the master going to sell the magic weapon at auction, if so, then I will definitely bid to the end. ”
"I haven't seen the master for several years, but I didn't expect the master's demeanor to be the same. ”
......
Wang Lun didn't expect that Luo Daochang, who was abducted and deceived by this pit, was not very famous in this area of Suzhou, and maybe one-tenth of the people in the hall took the initiative to come up and say hello after seeing it.
For a while, this Luo Daochang became a communicator, which really attracted the attention of many people.
Wang Lun remained silent, and he didn't let Luo Daochang introduce him in front of others, in the eyes of outsiders, his status was lower than Luo Daochang.
He didn't care about this, there was no need to do this kind of showmanship.
Luo Daochang came to the bar, and there happened to be a noble lady in a purple dress next to him, thirty years old, with a jeweled body, outstanding temperament, and beautiful appearance.
It's just that this noble lady looked at Luo Daochang with cold eyes, with disdain in her eyes.
"What a master, it's just a matter of fame and reputation. ”
These words came to Luo Daochang's ears very clearly.
Luo Daochang's face changed. Who is this young woman, who bites him when she sees him?
Boss Chen, who came over next to him, said in a low voice: "Dao Chief, this is Miss Zhou from Jinling." ”
Luo Daochang was thoughtful.
Seeing this, Boss Chen nodded slightly.
Luo Daochang didn't attack the noble lady, turned to leave, and then whispered to Wang Lun: "Master Wang, that noble lady is the eldest lady of the Zhou family in Jinling, named Zhou Zhijie. ”
"Is it also the noble lady who visited the major jade shops yesterday?" Wang Lun glanced at the noble lady Zhou Zhijie.
