295 Handmade Market
Chen Rui had already guessed that He Xiaohe would test the origin of his bronze goblet.
Especially after seeing many treasures at the exhibition, he was even more sure that He Xiaohe would definitely ask him about this.
Because compared with other treasures on auction in this exhibition hall, his bronze goblet can be said to be the cheapest.
But for such a cheap thing, He Xiaohe was actually allowed to put it up for auction.
This shows that he is deliberately selling himself a good deal, so why should he sell this good deal?
There must be something up his sleeve!
So he had already prepared this set of true and false rhetoric.
"What happened next? Did you find any other treasures at that family auction?"
Seeing Chen Rui say this, he deliberately stopped.
He Xiaohe couldn't help but became anxious and asked quickly.
But Chen Rui smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How can it be so easy to find a treasure?"
"When we rushed to this family's auction, their auction was nearing the end."
"The rest are scraps and scraps that no one wants."
"We looked around several times and found nothing good, so in the end we had no choice but to give up."
After saying that, he shook his head pretending to be regretful.
When He Xiaohe heard this, he also shook his head with regret.
"That's such a shame."
He and Fangda have been studying the bronze goblet these days.
I compared the photo many times with the bronze goblet that was stolen from the Boston Museum thirty years ago.
In the end, Fonda confirmed that the bronze goblet was probably the one stolen from the Boston Museum.
When He Xiaohe found out, he thought Chen Rui had found the treasures stolen from the Boston Museum.
I also wanted to see if I could catch it from Chen Rui's hand.
But now it seems that this idea is shattered.
"Later, I went to that house a few times, but after they held a home auction, they wanted to sell the house."
"I also asked about it specifically, guess what?"
When Chen Rui said this, he couldn't help but lower his voice deliberately, pretending to be mysterious.
"What's wrong?"
He Xiaohe, who was originally a little disappointed, saw Chen Rui acting like this.
Instead, my heart beat faster. Could it be that this guy really found something good?
When he thought about the fact that he had just kept asking him about Japan's whitewash, He Xiaohe's heartbeat couldn't help but pick up two speeds.
"It turns out that the original owner of this house is really related to the robbery of the Boston Museum decades ago."
When He Xiaohe heard this, his eyes suddenly brightened.
"You also know about this case?"
He asked casually, and Chen Rui raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at him with a very playful look.
"How could I not know?"
"Ahem... Then, what does the homeowner you are talking about have to do with the theft of the Boston Museum?"
He Xiaohe quickly changed the topic and asked further.
"Hey, the original owner of this house is said to be the main culprit involved in the theft, and he is his half-brother."
"And the last thing he left behind in this house was his brother's biological son..."
Chen Rui said to He Xiaohe meaningfully.
He Xiaohe's eyes widened.
"What's more? Where's the house?"
“It’s still for sale now!”
Chen Rui said with a smile.
"Then why don't you buy it?"
He Xiaohe asked casually, but as soon as he said the words, he regretted it.
These words were a bit too Meng Lang. Chen Rui looked at him with a dumbfounded expression.
"Buy it? Why did we buy it? That house can be sold for hundreds of thousands now!"
"How can we have so much money?"
After speaking, Chen Rui seemed to understand what He Xiaohe meant.
He could only smile and shake his head.
He Xiaohe quickly asked: "How much does it cost?"
"Six hundred thousand dollars... Let me tell you, that house is old and dilapidated, although the neighborhood is nice."
"But no one has lived in that house since the original owner was arrested and imprisoned."
"It has been abandoned there for almost twenty years. The house is in disrepair and is not worth that much money at all..."
Chen Rui said seemingly casually, but he did not reveal a single piece of information.
Opposite him, He Xiaohe's eyes couldn't help but light up.
Seeing his expression like this, Chen Rui couldn't help but chuckle inwardly.
I won’t shoot you or bite the hook...
It turned out that this was the hole he dug for He Xiaohe.
He paid more than 100,000 yuan for that house.
It is now being sold and the house has been briefly repaired by him.
He originally wanted to sell it for 300,000 yuan. After all, the house was very old no matter how much it was repaired.
If it weren't for the good neighborhood and other houses around it being very expensive, this house wouldn't be able to sell for a high price at all.
For example, he currently sells it for 300,000 yuan, but not many people are willing to go and take a look.
So he recently contacted a local agent online, handed the house into his hands, and asked him to sell it on his behalf.
But this time when He Xiaohe deliberately tested himself, he planned to dig a hole for him.
Let's see if there is any chance to seduce this guy to take over.
Sure enough, now it seems that this guy is tempted...
But whether he will take the bait or not, we have to wait and see later to see if he can receive any information from this guy about the price inquiry.
The two of them walked and talked like this for more than half an hour.
Finally, I finished visiting this preview.
I have to say that there are indeed many treasures in it that Chen Rui has never seen or thought of before.
It can be said that it opened his eyes.
But at the same time, we have a clearer guess about the organization behind He Xiaohe.
After the two of them visited the preview, they returned to the basement level.
Karen is waiting for him here right now.
"Okay, the things have been delivered and we've seen the preview, so we'll go back first."
Having accomplished his purpose of coming to the preview, Chen Rui stood up and left.
He Xiaohe had no intention of retaining him: "Well, okay, the auction will start on time at ten o'clock tomorrow morning."
"Brother, you have to come on time!"
"Well, don't worry, I will definitely be there on time tomorrow."
Chen Rui nodded vigorously, then got up and left the villa with Karen.
After coming out of the villa, the two of them didn't speak much.
When the car was approaching downtown San Jose, Chen Rui's phone suddenly rang.
He looked down and saw that it was the agent he was looking for in Boston.
He motioned for Karen to answer the call, and Karen answered the phone and chatted a lot with the person on the other side.
When I put down the phone, my face was already full of joy.
"That guy bit the hook..."
"Ha, I knew it!"
Chen Rui smiled and punched the steering wheel...
Sure enough, they had only been out for less than forty minutes, so He Xiaohe called the agency in Boston to inquire about the price.
Chapter completed!
