Rebirth 81: Being forced into marriage by my sister’s best friend at the beginning

"Dear readers, if you look closely at the shape of the plum vase, you will see that it is a work from Ru Kiln in the Ming Dynasty. Is there any price increase?"

"Do you have?"

Seeing that everyone was unmoved, Liu Ye had a sneer on his face.

The two of them hugged each other, and I stopped following.

Seeing that Liu Ye had not spoken yet, the auctioneer was about to knock down his hammer and announce the deal.

But at this moment, Lin Ran nodded to Ma Zhen.

Liu Ye was suddenly stunned.

Since being humiliated by Lin Ran last time, Liu Ye has changed into a different person. He abandoned his favorite floral shirt before and turned into a promising young man in suits and ties. His hairstyle has also been changed.

He didn't think Lin Ran could recognize him the first time.

Although he disliked Lin Ran, Liu Ye knew that Lin Ran was not an ordinary person, and his level of treasure appraisal was recognized by the industry.

I originally thought that he was deliberately raising the price with me, but then I thought about it, his outfit had changed, how could Lin Ran recognize him.

Seeing Lin Ran's appearance, Liu Ye's heart skipped a beat.

Looking at the auctioneer again, his hammer stayed in the air, as if waiting for him to make a bid.

After learning some treasure appraisal knowledge, Liu Ye took a closer look at the plum vase again.

The auctioneer knocked down his hammer, and a horseman immediately came up, took out a box and delivered the package number of the plum vase to Ma Zhen.

At the same time, Ma Zhen took out the check and signed his name on it.

Live transactions, no one can be deceived.

Liu Ye suddenly became confused, "Since it's him, he shouldn't suffer any loss."

Thinking that the other party might not know him, Liu Ye thought he had a chance.

As long as you follow Lin Ran and buy, you will most likely not suffer a loss.

My goal of picking up leaks this month is guaranteed.

Liu Ye studied treasure appraisal for a while and got a little understanding of the market.

He was not sure of the specific year of the plum vase, but he judged that it was an official kiln product.

Originally, his estimated price was around 2000 yuan. When he saw Ma Zhen buying it for [-] yuan, Lin Ran nodded to him.

Liu Ye began to doubt himself. He might have made a mistake.

This may be a different treasure than a Ming dynasty plum vase.

"Tsk, this kid." Liu Ye looked at Lin Ran, feeling sour and disgusted.

If you can start a business from scratch and open a chain store in the capital, ask yourself, Liu Ye can't do it.

As a businessman, Liu Ye recognized Lin Ran's vision.

The next thing he likes must be a good product, and he will get it even if he loses a little.

Having made up his mind, Ma Zhen put the plum vase box away and placed it at his feet.

The second round of auction has begun.

Just now, from the perspective of Liu Ye and others, Ma Zhen and Lin Ran were laughing and talking.

In fact, the content is——

"This broken bottle costs 2000 yuan. You owe me a favor of [-] yuan."

"That's wrong. What Brother Ma bought might not be a plum vase."

"what is that?"

"Go back and tell you."

“The shape is quite unique.”

After listening to Lin Ran's words, Ma Zhen opened the box and checked the plum vase.

"From the Song Dynasty?"

He just checked it, with a hint of surprise on his face.

Lin Ran beside him started to pay attention to the second auction item again.

Ma Zhen was quite happy in his heart. He had always been with Lin Ran as his rival in the past, so it was a good choice to take him as his adviser.

If it were really a plum vase from the Song Dynasty, it would have to be called a sutra vase.

He had to go back and verify it to know the authenticity, so Ma Zhen naturally put the bottle back into the box and placed it carefully under the stool.

The chairs at the auction are all fully enclosed at the back, and the bottom is used as a storage space for buyers to prevent theft by others.

Lin Ran just said it casually, but seeing Ma Zhen's look, he seemed to believe it.

He couldn't help but laugh to himself.

Brother Ma, I'm sorry, this is revenge for you stealing my ID earlier.

Of course, Lin Ran felt that it was not a loss for Ma Zhen to buy this plum vase. As the antique market grows, the premium will become higher and higher.

As long as you keep it in your hands long enough, you will definitely be able to sell it for a good price.

Think about it from another angle, this is not an investment of time.

In the past, Lin Ran might have thought of doing harm to others, but life changed his mind.

Liu Ye sent his men to trick his sister last time. If he hadn't had the connections and strength he has now, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Therefore, Lin Ran did not hesitate at all to trick Liu Ye.

Ma Zhen suddenly said: "Brother Lin, do you have anything to do with the people behind you?"

He saw that Lin Ran was letting him set a trap for him to jump out of.

He had never seen Lin Ran take the initiative to trick someone before, and he found this very interesting.

Of course Lin Ran would not admit it and raised his eyebrows: "Brother Ma, what are you talking about?"

Ma Zhen smiled and said: "We are friends, as long as you know it in your heart."

"I didn't mean to trick you." Lin Ran replied immediately, "Actually, you can actually make money by buying this plum vase. It's just a matter of time."

Lin Ran could be regarded as an excuse for being a friend.

The second auction item looked like a fake, and neither Lin Ran nor Ma Zhen were interested in it.

The two chatted.

Since the last auction, Ma Zhen has been basically busy with business matters and has relaxed a little bit about collecting.

The last few times I went to auctions, I actually bought some high imitations.

He didn't see anything good at all, but happened to encounter the opening of the underground black market. He was about to call Lin Ran over to see the world.

As a result, Lin Ran went to explore the mountains.

Ma Zhen originally planned to give up, but he didn't expect to hear that he was going to Yamato Mountain.

Lin Ran frowned and said, "Fortunately you didn't come directly. Do you know how dangerous it was in the mountains at that time?"

At the market, Lin Ran relaxed wholeheartedly.

The first thing he did when he returned to the city was to ask Liu Jingfeng to call the police.

After all, Liu Jingfeng is a well-known local businessman, so it would be more appropriate for him to report to the police that something happened inside the mountain.

But Lin Ran was actually a little worried. If Abao's people didn't stop the monster, the next thing would be troublesome.

Ma Zhen wrote lightly: "Even if it is a global disaster, it has little to do with us."

"How can you say that, antiques in prosperous times are gold in troubled times." Lin Ran said, "How much money have you made from antiques, and you actually say it doesn't matter."

"Your statement may not stand up to scrutiny." Ma Zhen said with a smile, "Hard currency is hard currency in any era. Besides, you underestimate military power."

Ma Zhen leaned on his chair and said, "Do you think that ancient Frankenstein caused a storm in the capital?"

A decisive look.

Lin Ran recalled the books he had read, and there were indeed many supernatural legends, but he had never heard of large-scale monster attacks on humans, and they were even listed as unsolved mysteries.

"Even if his experiment is successful and he is invulnerable, the country's military power is enough to eliminate a monster." Ma Zhen sneered.

"Of course, a lot of people may be sacrificed."
