Chapter 160, Dusk Drum and Morning Bell

After entering a thatched house, Zhao Xiaoning found that there was a hole in his feelings. The thatched hut is not large, but it has a staircase that extends into the ground, which should look like a basement.

Knowing that the auction was in the basement, Zhao Xiaoning couldn't help frowning, if Nima auctioned in the basement, if someone blocked it, it would be an empty bamboo basket.

"What's the matter, Zhao Ye?" Seeing Zhao Xiaoning stop, Qian Kangcheng couldn't help but ask.

Zhao Xiaoning felt uneasy, but he didn't say much, looked at Tao Yuan, and whispered in his ear.

"Yes!"

Tao Yuan agreed, turned around and walked to the parking lot, and then drove away.

"Let's go inside. Zhao Xiaoning said lightly, and then followed Hou San into the basement. The basement is very large, more than 500 square meters, although it is underground, but the inside is brilliantly lit.

There are a lot of porcelain, jade, and even bronze objects in the huge field, most of which have just been unearthed, and you can smell the earthy smell from a long distance.

There are clear regulations in China that nothing unearthed can be sold, let alone porcelain and other cultural relics, even if it is unearthed a piece of wood, it must be handed over to the state.

Therefore, many people who love collecting have set their sights on this black market, although the black market is risky, but you can buy unique items that cannot be bought in the market. As a result, many glamorous businessmen leave the office and become a black market buyer.

Of course, buying antiques on the black market is also extremely risky. Speaking of the title of Touching the Golden Captain, it also originated in the Three Kingdoms period, when Cao Cao's military salary was insufficient, and the profession of Touching the Golden Captain was specially established. Therefore, the profession of tomb robbery has been passed down for more than 1,800 years, so many ancient tombs in China have long been stolen, and the cultural relics inside must have been lost.

In order to maximize the profits, people began to make old things, whether it was porcelain, jade or bronze, any antique could be imitated. Therefore, not all antiques on the black market are genuine, but there are more genuine items than there are on the market.

There were hundreds of people in the area, all of whom were wealthy buyers, and almost every one of them had a woman with them.

After entering the field, Zhao Xiaoning watched it seriously, magic weapons are different from ordinary items, they have a special aura, ordinary people may not feel it, but Zhao Xiaoning can still distinguish it.

After watching for a while, Zhao Xiaoning found that those items were all old, because he didn't even feel the most basic corpse qi on those items.

Suddenly, Zhao Xiaoning stopped in front of a bronze bell about three meters high with Buddhist runes carved on it, this item was not an unearthed cultural relic, because there was no trace of eating soil on it. However, it exudes an extremely strong yang energy.

"Hou San, do you know the origin of this big bell?" Zhao Xiaoning looked at Hou San.

Hou San said: "Back to Zhao Ye, this big bell was collected by a friend of mine at a farmer's house in Linprovince. It is said that it has a history of more than 1,000 years, this bell was the morning bell of a temple, but when the war was raging, even the temple could not avoid the war, and finally this bell was lost to the people, as for the authenticity of the impossible to verify. ”

Zhao Xiaoning nodded slightly, the so-called evening drum and morning bell is here. Generally speaking, the temple bell is hung at the highest point, and it will be struck at sunrise or sunset. Therefore, the bell will be nourished by the aura of heaven and earth and turned into a magic weapon.

In fact, Zhao Xiaoning didn't know if he could find a suitable magic weapon here, and he came here mainly to try his luck. Now it seems that he has come to the right place, this Dusk Drum and Morning Bell is a very high extreme yang magic weapon, which can completely help him complete the Feng Shui Bureau of the First Prison.

The auction soon began, but it was all other items. Zhao Xiaoning didn't need those things, and naturally he wouldn't fight them.

In comparison, the price of the black market is still very low, and the general price is only between hundreds of thousands.

"Okay, the next thing is this big guy, the evening drum and morning bell, the starting price is 100,000, and the price increase shall not be less than 10,000 each time. "The auctioneer is a middle-aged man in his fifties.

Generally speaking, very few people will buy something of this kind of bulky size, but there are exceptions to everything. I saw a middle-aged man in a black suit with an extraordinary temperament take a step forward and said, "I'll give a million." ”

Hearing this price, many people were surprised, and directly raised the price to one million, it is obvious that this guy wants to take it for himself.

Sure enough, there were still a few people who wanted to participate, but they all gave up the idea when they saw that the other party offered such a fierce price.

"Two million. Zhao Xiaoning spoke. This twilight drum and morning bell is bound to be obtained, even if 10 million is not enough, he must find a way to get it, after all, it is related to the lives of thousands of people in the first prison.

"Three million. The man who quoted earlier said again.

"Five million. This time, Zhao Xiaoning directly increased the price by two million, and his tone and expression seemed very calm, as if he had spent fifty yuan.

The onlookers erupted into bursts of discussion, none of them were bad moneyers, but they didn't expect a twilight drum and morning bell to be photographed at such a sky-high price. After all, this thing doesn't have much appreciation value, is it worth that much money?

"Six million. The man continued.

"Seven hundred. Zhao Xiaoning said coldly. At this moment, he finally understood what public money consumption is, and the feeling of spending money like running water is really not too cool.

The middle-aged man hesitated and said, "Eight million." ”

Seeing this scene, Zhao Xiaoning knew that this guy should be out of budget, so he smiled slightly and said, "Let's make it whole, 10 million." ”

"I give up. A hint of helplessness flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes.

"Congratulations to this master for taking this evening drum and morning bell for 10 million. The auctioneer's excited voice rang out. The price of 10 million definitely broke the record of this auction house since it was built, and the key is that the price of the evening drum and morning bell only cost 20,000 yuan.

It made 9.98 million yuan when it changed hands, and this business can be regarded as a million profits.

Just when Zhao Xiaoning was about to swipe the card, an unexpected thing happened. I heard the sound of hurried footsteps, and then a dozen policemen armed with real guns rushed to the basement.

"Don't move, we're the police. ”

The appearance of the police surprised everyone, knowing that this is a sale of cultural relics, and once convicted, they will go to jail. Well, being caught on the black market is already a crime.

At this moment, many people want to scold their mothers, how can they meet the police, their luck is too bad!

Everyone squatted on the ground with their heads in their hands. A police officer at the head shouted with a megaphone.

Hearing this, everyone dared to say anything, and immediately squatted on the ground honestly with their heads in their hands according to the policeman's words.

"Damn, didn't you hear what Lao Tzu said? I'll let you squat. A policeman saw that Zhao Xiaoning did not squat, and kicked him.

Zhao Xiaoning was thinking about things, and he was kicked to the ground before he had time to dodge, which made him very embarrassed and unbearable.

"What are you staring at, believe it or not, Lao Tzu killed you?" The policeman's eyes froze, and the dark muzzle of the gun was aimed at Zhao Xiaoning's head.
