Chapter 46 Turtle in the Urn
"I've been to this place before."
"Master, are you sure?"
"Nonsense, after so many years of traveling around the world for my master, is there any place in the Imperial Capital that I haven't been to?"
Popohou looked at the surrounding environment, and this place gave him a very familiar feeling.
This place.
He did come before.
It must have been six or seven years ago.
It was raining heavily and he took shelter in the abandoned factory.
I didn't expect that these guys would actually set up the auction site here.
"Master Hou, you are well-informed. What kind of place is this?"
"An abandoned factory in Fangshan."
"Master, why do I feel that something is not right about today? I always feel like someone is setting up a trap behind my back?"
Han Chunming said, "I don't think something is right either."
"I feel the same way. Let's play it by ear. You have been practicing martial arts since you were a child, and you are known as the Qianmen bully. If we get into a fight, you have to protect me and become your teacher."
Even the two juniors noticed something was wrong. How could he, an old Jianghu who has been in the world of martial arts for decades, not notice it?
This happened today.
It's indeed a little weird.
who cares.
Come all come.
Let’s take a look at the people behind the scenes and what kind of medicine they are selling in the gourd.
"Don't worry, master. If there's going to be a fight later, my disciple will definitely be able to protect you."
In the portable planting space, Yang Yukun placed an I-brand air gun, cold weapons for practicing the ancient Zhuangquan equipment method, and a 56-and-a-half-sword-shaped bayonet.
If something really went wrong, with his skills, it wouldn't be a problem to protect the master and Han Chunming.
"Don't be nervous, we are just here to attend an auction. Let's go and find a place to sit for a while."
Baolanhou smiled and took Yang Yukun and Han Chunming to find a place to sit down.
"Master, I didn't expect you to be so rich."
To participate in this auction, capital verification is indeed required. You need at least 10,000 yuan in cash to be eligible to get on the car.
Just this threshold alone wiped out more than half of the people.
Each person eligible to participate in the auction is only allowed to bring two people into the venue.
Yang Yukun took a quick glance and saw that there were about a hundred people at the scene.
Excluding those like him and Han Chunming who came in to watch the excitement, there were not many people who were truly qualified to participate in the auction competition.
"Your master, I am also the prince's descendant after all. If I don't even have this little asset, how can I still hang out in Sijiu City?"
Forty-nine cities.
At the feet of the emperor.
Don't want too many rich people.
That is to say, what is now implemented is a planned economy. Everything you buy requires a rationed supply of tickets. It is usually impossible to tell who has money and who does not.
As a descendant of a prince, although his family is in decline, he still spends a lot of money looking for old things.
But there is a saying that goes, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Look at the people at the auction at this moment. They are all wealthy people in the Forty-Nine City.
"Dang Dang Dang..."
"Everyone, our auction is about to begin today. Welcome all friends to participate in this auction event."
"I know that the reason why everyone comes to our auction is because of the treasures from the Eastern Tomb ordered by the Queen Mother of the West."
"Now, I declare that the auction has officially begun. Please bring out our first treasure today, a bronze goat head with an animal mask pattern."
A gong sounded, and a guy also wearing a Nuo god mask appeared on a simple auction stage set up in an abandoned factory.
This guy is the host of today's auction.
Wearing a Nuo god mask and loose clothes, his true face cannot be seen clearly.
The slightly hoarse voice seems to be deliberate. Judging from the body shape and walking posture, he should be a strong man, or a practitioner.
"Aren't the bronzes a treasure from the Eastern Tomb of the Western Empress Dowager?"
"That's right, what are you doing? We are all here because the Queen Mother of the West ordered the Dongling treasure."
This guy talked a lot, and just when everyone thought he was going to invite the Queen Mother of the West to bring out the treasure of Dongling Tomb, this guy changed the topic and asked for a bronze vessel.
"Everyone, please be patient. The good stuff must be saved for last. I guarantee that the weight of this treasure from the Dongling Tomb of the Queen Mother of the West is definitely beyond your imagination.
And this appetizer is not bad, it is a late Shang Dynasty bronze goat head with animal mask pattern.
As for the details of the object, I’ll let you bosses take a look at it later. Now let’s invite the first item to be auctioned.
Please take the first lot!
Um?
What are you doing?"
The host wearing a Nuo god mask called for a long time, but he didn't invite the first lot out.
Just when everyone was confused, Yang Yukun was keenly aware that something was not right.
Someone is approaching.
There are quite a few.
From all directions of abandoned factories.
"Master, something is wrong. Didn't you take shelter from the rain here before? Do you know of a place where I can sneak out?"
"What's wrong?"
"We are most likely surrounded."
"These grandsons want to take advantage of others?"
"Maybe this group of people are just like us, they are turtles in a jar."
"Don't move, hold your head in your hands and squat down!"
"It's over."
"Xiao Kun, Xiao Wu, you two come with me quickly, this way."
Hearing the words "crouch down with your hands on your head", everyone who came to the auction was shocked.
A team of personnel from relevant national authorities with guns and ammunition rushed in from around the abandoned factory, directly organizing the auction and participating in the auction.
Fortunately, Yang Yukun noticed something was wrong in advance, and under the leadership of his master, took advantage of the chaos and escaped in advance.
Fortunately, his master once took shelter here from the rain, and took advantage of the boredom of sheltering from the rain to visit the abandoned factory. The three of them climbed out of the hole covered by weeds in the corner and found a place to hide on the mountain behind the factory.
Got up.
Fortunately, all three of them are wearing masks, so no one knows their true faces.
The three of them hid in the grass at the back of the mountain, shivering with cold, watching people being escorted out of the abandoned factory one after another.
All three of them knew that these people were finished.
Regardless of those who organize ghost markets and auctions, or those who participate in auctions, they will inevitably end up in jail, and some may even eat peanuts.
The three of them hid in the mountain for three hours. It was not until about four o'clock in the morning that there was no movement at all in the abandoned factory at the foot of the mountain, and they dared to breathe a sigh of relief.
"Is everyone gone?"
"Everyone should have left. I'm going. It's so cold that I can barely feel my feet."
"Brother Xiaowu, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's just that my legs are numb after squatting for a long time without moving. It's not a big problem."
"Master, where are you?"
"I'm fine too. Let's leave quickly and leave this place of right and wrong."
Today's incident made the Houshao Hou Hou extremely scared, and he had already greeted the eighteenth generation ancestors who organized the gang of ghost markets in his heart.
He didn't even know he was being targeted, and he opened a ghost market to hold an underground auction.
He has a criminal record. He was imprisoned for three years because he ordered three rooms in Liu Sihai's house. If he is caught again this time, he doesn't know how many more years he will be imprisoned.
This crazy ghost market almost turned him into a ghost.
He will learn from mistakes and gain wisdom. In the future, he will not come to such unreliable ghost market auctions even if he is invited to come with a large sedan chair.
