"That must be expensive, right?"

Chen Rui asked tentatively.

He Xiaohe couldn't help but pause, and then a wry smile appeared on his face.

"That's right, the things here are indeed not cheap."

"However, you have to understand..."

He Xiaohe turned his head as he spoke, with a rather strange expression on his face, as if he was hesitant to speak.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Rui pretended not to understand and asked casually.

He Xiaohe hesitated for a while, then sighed and said.

"You have to know that some of the treasures in this internal auction are shipped from China across the ocean and thousands of miles away."

"The cost of these treasures is not low."

"In addition, there are many treasures obtained from abroad through special channels."

"Although these treasures usually don't see the light of day, the price is not necessarily very cheap."

When He Xiaohe said this, Chen Rui couldn't help but feel shocked.

Damn, Qiao Li is right, the organization behind this guy is really extraordinary.

They are not only engaged in buying and selling, speculating on fake antiques, but also defrauding banks and financial institutions.

Are they even smuggling antiques out of the country?

Thinking of this, Chen Rui couldn't help but hate these guys even more.

Although he is abroad, his heart for the dragon country has never changed.

Now that he heard that He Xiao and the others were actually doing the trick of eating people inside and outside, he really wanted to go up and give him a knife.

But he still suppressed his anger, and instead looked at He Xiaohe with a smile on his face and said.

"I understand. In fact, this is similar to my business! Sometimes you really have to go through life and death."

"It's normal to ask for a higher price."

Seeing that Chen Rui was not angry, he even expressed approval to himself.

He Xiaohe also breathed a sigh of relief, and then laughed.

"Who says it isn't? It would be a waste to keep those treasures buried underground or kept in museums."

"This is also a rational use of resources."

Chen Rui laughed: "I think you are right, it is very reasonable."

"But how much money do I need to prepare to participate in this internal auction?"

He Xiaohe looked embarrassed at this moment.

"I really forgot about this before. Our in-house auctions are all by invitation only."

"Generally, only those with certain abilities, or those with certain transaction records at our usual auctions, will be invited."

"Usually you have to prepare at least five million! This requires capital verification before you can enter the market!"

"hiss!"

When Chen Rui heard this, he couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Five million dollars?

Although he has made a lot of money recently by hunting for treasures.

But his current total net worth is only about US$1.2 million.

One million of them were earned by participating in He Xiaohe's auction.

The other money he had previously transferred back to China was used by his parents.

Mainly used by parents to give back to some relatives...

When his father's business was in trouble, he transferred a lot of money from relatives.

Except for the hole in the company, my father has already paid back most of it.

Now the only money left from these relatives has not been repaid, including the hundreds of thousands that Chen Rui gave to his mother before.

Part of it was used by them to improve their lives, and most of the rest was returned to relatives.

After Chen Rui found out, he transferred a lot of dollars to them a few days ago, and they all used it to pay back the money.

If I hadn't considered it, I would have to live in the United States in the future and go out to receive goods.

Chen Ruizhen wished he could transfer all his money back to his parents.

But now I heard He Xiaohe say that he had to prepare five million dollars to participate in this in-house auction.

He had to give up that idea first.

But even if he doesn't transfer money to his parents, the 1.2 million he has on hand is still far from 5 million?

Thinking of this, Chen Rui couldn't help but feel a headache.

And this was He Xiaohe who was driving, but he was smiling again.

"You don't have to worry about not having enough money. What I want to say is, if you have good things on hand."

"You might as well bring something to participate in this internal auction."

"If your baby is noticed by those big guys, you can sell it for a good price."

"Then you already have the capital to participate in the auction, right?"

"And don't worry, our treasures at the internal auction have everything from high to low."

"The expensive ones cost tens of millions, the cheap ones cost tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands."

"As long as you come here, you will definitely find something to your liking."

When Chen Rui heard what he said, he couldn't help but slap his thigh.

"You should have said it earlier! If you want to talk about baby, hey, I'm a big deal!"

"Oh? Are you still alive?"

He Xiaohe's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard what he said.

At this time, Chen Rui pretended to smile mysteriously and did not answer.

He Xiaohe also knew that he had crossed the line a bit, so he did not continue to ask.

The two just chatted for a while, and soon He Xiaohe drove to Santa Monica.

They returned to the door of the mansion where he held the auction that day. By the time they drove into the compound, it was already dark.

When they saw a car driving in, several people immediately rushed out of the mansion.

When they saw He Xiaohe who came down, those people immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

He Xiaohe explained a few words to those people, and then those people raised their eyes and looked over at Chen Rui.

Chen Rui smiled and waved to him: "You're here, it's time for me to go back, I'm leaving."

"Hey, wait a minute."

He Xiaohe said suddenly, and then asked the people around him to whisper a few words.

Soon the man drove a Dodge T-Rex trx from the garage behind.

Chen Rui was a little confused when he saw this car. This car was 90% new.

The plastic film on the car seat hasn't been removed yet.

"You take this car and drive it..."

"ah?"

Looking at the car keys handed over by He Xiaohe, Chen Rui was a little dumbfounded.

"I am a person who must repay kindness!"

"You saved my life today, but your car was wrecked. I can't let you bleed and cry."

"I only picked up this car two days ago. I originally planned to drive it hunting."

"Consider it a gift from me as a thank you for saving your life!"

He Xiaohe's attitude at this time was very sincere, and Chen Rui could see that he really wanted to give this car to him.

Without being pretentious, he reached out and took the car keys.

"Thanks!"

"Haha, you're welcome. The car registration information change form is in the glove box."

"You can go back and fill in your information, and the transfer will be done directly!"

He Xiao seemed to be very righteous, but Chen Rui knew that he was playing the trick of a polite and virtuous corporal with him.

If I hadn't known this guy's true identity, I might have been fooled by him.

At this moment, Chen Rui deliberately pretended to be surprised and waved at He Xiaohe: "Thank you!"

But he smiled coldly in his heart.

This car, even if the He family compensates them with a little interest!
