Beipai Tomb Raiders Notes

"Don't sleep, don't sleep!"

"Yunfeng, wake up, get up and work!" I slept late last night, and I was woken up by the voice of Boss Sun in the morning.

Seeing his happy face, I guessed that our truck should be released from the pier.

When I asked, it was indeed the case. The pickup truck had just arrived downstairs at the hotel, and the boss was calling me to get up and unload the truck.

Open the back door of the van, remove the seafood that was used as a cover-up, and reveal two large wooden boxes inside.The nails we sealed on the crate are still intact.

The owner of the homestay is an elder sister in her 50s. Because she often receives mainland tourists, this elder sister can speak Mandarin well.When the hotel lady saw us unloading, she thought we had bought some furniture, and she enthusiastically clamored to come and help.

Just say no to bothering you, we can do it ourselves, and we won't scratch your wooden floor.Only then did the elder sister leave awkwardly.

Move the two large wooden boxes to the head room.

Close the door, lock the windows, turn up the volume of the TV in the room to the maximum, and then we started to open the wooden box with a hammer.

Opening the box and seeing what was inside, we were all relieved.

The copper goods were neatly stacked, the bubble wrap and newspapers were also there, and nothing was missing.

This batch of goods includes Jue Cups, Lian, Zun, Ding, Dou, He, Dendrobium, small chariots and horses, etc., which can be said to be rich in variety.The most important thing is the three bronze wares with ancient Yue worship totems. I still don’t know the exact scientific name of these things. This is the first time we have seen this kind of utensil pattern, and we have not found it from auction albums and unearthed bronze records.

Although these three items cannot be named scientifically, it does not prevent these three items from being valuable, and they may all be unique items.Just like the golden masks of the Sanxingdui civilization in ancient Shu, here are the things of the ancient Yue Kingdom.

In the afternoon, I informed three Morro Street brokers to come to the hotel to look at the goods. These three were all locals, and they talked about Hong Kong. Great meaning.)

While looking at the goods, they took pictures with their cameras and sent them to their bosses.

These people mainly want to get the commission. They keep bragging to their bosses about how good our batch is, and they all hope that their benefactors can win it, so that they can get a high commission afterwards.

They asked if there was a psychological price for the handle, and how much was the minimum selling price, so that they could quote a price to the boss. If the boss thought the price was negotiable, he would come to see the goods in person and sign the contract.

Putting his head on his head, he deliberately said the words very hard: "Let's go together, not just go out, five hundred or more, and don't talk if there are fewer."

"Five hundred..." Several brokers gasped, this is a lot of money.Buying a piece of Qianlong official kiln porcelain is only more than [-] yuan, and the price of this batch is equivalent to the sum of fifty official kiln porcelains.

That's when one of the brokers went out to answer the call with a flip phone.

Not long after, he hurried in holding the phone.

"It's settled, my boss intends to let it go."

So fast... I was taken aback, the price is several million, just look at a MMS photo and make a phone call?Who is the buyer?So rich, the richest man in Hong Kong? This is it.

He was a little surprised when he quoted the price of 500. He thought that the price would be lowered. Looking at the current situation, is the price quoted too low?

The broker said that the big boss will arrive in two hours, as long as the item is the same as the photo, the price will definitely go up to 500!

Overjoyed, he ordered the boss to set up a banquet and waited for the boss to come.

The other party was very punctual, and the boss's car was a new black extended-length Alpha.After arriving, the driver opened the door, and a white-haired old man in his 60s got off from Alfa.

"Come on, hurry up and take your seat," Botou greeted people to come in with a smile.

The white-haired old man had a ruddy and rich face, and he looked like a rich man. He waved his hand and said that there is no need to eat. Let's take a look at the three pieces of dragon meat first.

Nodding his head in agreement, clapping his hands, Boss Sun turned and left the room.

After a few minutes, the boss brought in a ball of yellow cloth, one of the three bronze wares wrapped in the yellow cloth, which was the ancient Yue bronze wares engraved with eight hand totems in gold and silver.

The old man took out his glasses from his pocket and put on his white gloves with great care.

After looking at the bronze ware carefully, the old man took a deep breath and said, "It's really all right, do you know what it is?"

He shook his head and said: "This should be a sacrificial bronze vessel from Gu Yue. The boss is also an expert, so I won't hide it from you. This thing came from the Great Pit of the Western Zhou Dynasty."

The old man's eyes lit up, and he asked, "Who is the owner of the tomb?"

He didn't hide his head, and said truthfully: "A vassal king in the southern fiefdom, must wait for the belt."

The old man nodded in satisfaction, "It seems that my guess is right. I have been looking for things from Gu Yue for decades. The objects handed down by Gu Yue are no lower than Sanxingdui. It was specially made by the priest of the black wizard. There is a very small fragment in the Baoji Museum.

"Can the other two be brought to the old man for a look?"

He nodded his head and said, of course, he ordered the boss to bring the other two pieces.

The white-haired old man was fascinated by watching, and watched for more than ten minutes without saying a word.

Coughing his head, the old man regained his composure.

The old man said: "Including these three items, pack the rest, 500?"

Put on the headgear and said: "Boss, look, there are few of these things. I haven't heard the quotation from others. I'm afraid it's inappropriate to make such a rash move."

The old man smiled and said, "Oh? I understand. Do you think I've lost money because I agreed quickly? If it's because of money, everything is easy to talk about, and I can give you 550."

"But..." the old man continued: "Many people don't recognize the things of Gu Yue, and if the people don't recognize it, it means that they are unpopular. You can inquire about the price I'll give you, it's already high.

"If you sell it, we can sign the contract now, and I can give you the money today."

"How? Whether you can sell a word or not, hurry up."

After thinking for a moment, he said: "How to pay 550, I ask for a one-time payment."

"Tell me, cash transfer check is fine."

"Then write a check." He made up his mind to pack and sell all these things to the white-haired old man.

"Yes," the old man nodded and said, "The official seal of the check is locked in a drawer in my office. You can send someone back to the company with me."

"There is another thing. After you get the payment for the goods, you must keep it secret that you met me at xx company. Similarly, once the goods are in my hands, you will not be able to find them afterwards."

The old man got up straight away, talking as he walked.

"Come here, take the money with me."
