Stealing cultural relics privately is just a matter of bad luck. What is stolen is relatively wealthy stuff, so it does not constitute a serious crime.

But in Lin Ran's heart, it was already extremely offensive.

Lin Ran's identification results shocked everyone in the tomb robbing gang.

"How is that possible? Little brother, you must have seen it wrong."

Lin Ran presented the evidence again, and he was completely speechless.

If someone else had told him that something was wrong, he would have refused to admit it even to death.

But Lin Ran had good reason and pointed out the flaws in the antiques face to face.

They could still quibble a bit at the beginning, but by the end, they were all broken.

Met a real expert.

The real reason why Lin Ran wanted to teach them a lesson was because they wanted to use fakes to fool themselves.

The market price of those two fakes is around [-], which is not a small sum of money.

All added up, there are ten pieces.

It was wrong to fool Lin Ran like this.

After some haggling, Lin Ran bought the goods at a very low price and paid a deposit to the contactor.

Then he explained: "The deposit has been given and the goods have been inspected. I will replenish the balance to you after the goods arrive at the store in Beijing."

"But don't try to fool me. I know every antique, including the characteristics on it."

"Do not attempt to subcontract or intentionally damage."

"Otherwise, it will not only affect your business, but your identity will also be exposed."

Lin Ran knew that he couldn't be soft-spoken with this group of people. In the world of martial arts, it was easy to see who had a tough head and a tough background.

In the hearts of the tomb robbers, Lin Ran represents the Ke family.

They are well aware of the strength of the Ke family. If they are really messed up by the Ke family, jail time will be light.

After explaining all the precautions, Lin Ran and Guan Yun boarded the flight back to the capital without stopping.

"Mr. Lin, is this how tomb robbers trade?"

It was not convenient for him to ask in front of the tomb robbers just now. Now on the plane, with the two of them sitting together, Guan Yun finally raised his inner question.

"Some are, what's wrong?" Lin Ran was about to put on headphones and listen to music.

At the beginning of this year, some familiar things finally returned to Lin Ran, and the Walkman was one of them.

"I just thought of you... It seems that I have never found a buyer to trade next to the ancient tomb." The "you" Guan Yun refers to are naturally Liu Jingfeng's team.

Lin Ran smiled and said: "Brother Liu has his own channels, and we have reached an agreement that some of the antiques will be donated to local museums."

"The remaining goods will be transported back to the capital through special channels."

"As for how he sells, I don't know very well, but as partners, mutual trust is very important."

Lin Ran replied.

The most impressive one was naturally the time they went to the Holy Tower, which was equivalent to removing all the burial objects of the entire tribe, but it took a lot of their time.

It was that trip to the grave that provided the first pot of gold for Lin Ran's career.

Now is no longer the time to be penniless.

If he had never been to the Holy Tower, Liu Jingfeng would not have used the low-level method of trading next to the ancient tomb.

In Liu Jingfeng's eyes, this approach is too stupid!

Only low-level tomb raiding teams would do this.

Moreover, Lin Ran had another guess.

The team may be in internal strife, otherwise without support, the team would not be able to grow to its current level.

As for going to ancient tombs to inspect goods, it is actually a very irrational behavior.

Because there is no way to guarantee whether the buyer has been targeted, especially after tomb robbing was classified as a serious violation, the owner of the antique shop must undergo certain background checks. If it is found that there are a large number of cultural relics in his shop with unknown origins, there will be Maybe someone from the Ministry of Culture and Culture was secretly watching.

Follow him to the scene as he makes the transaction.

If you are found trading next to the ancient tomb, you will be arrested on the spot as a KPI.

But maybe it was because he was introduced by Ke Hui and the other party trusted him that he conducted the transaction directly next to the ancient tomb.

Lin Ran originally wanted to see if there was any good stuff. Even if there wasn't any, there would be no actual loss, so he decided to come over and have a look.

Unexpectedly, he actually saw some clues.

"The things I bought next to the ancient tomb should be real." Guan Yun asked.

This incident also made him understand that Liu Jingfeng's team was indeed different from other tomb robbing teams.

Lin Ran said: "This is not necessarily true. In fact, it may be a performance-based sales method."

Trading next to the ancient tomb, it is actually impossible to dig it out of the ancient tomb on the spot.

It is purely to create a sense of mystery and unique experience that has just been unearthed.

Make buyers feel like they are actually getting something fresh out of the grave, thereby increasing their determination to buy.

It is the scene marketing that has been used badly in later generations.

Guan Yun frowned, thinking about Lin Ran's explanation.

Lin Ran felt that this team of tomb robbers might not be real.

It's more like a makeshift gang.

Originally, he wanted to see what the tomb-robbing team in the transaction was like and dig out the secrets hidden behind them.

However, Lin Ran keenly observed that this team was not like a tomb robbing team at all.

Instead, they are like marketers who specialize in performance sales.

There are even fake products mixed with genuine products, which is an extremely amateurish method.

"Haha, there is such a thing." Guan Yun understood it as soon as he heard it.

After all, large tombs are not often encountered. This group of people just had better luck and found some goods.

The tombs at the back were probably dug out for show.

Most of their transactions are carried out next to tombs. The real work should be to collect antiques from the countryside and then sell them at a high price in the name of ancient tombs.

As for the contact person, he may have known them before.

After all, this kind of marketing method is still relatively advanced in this era.

Lin Ran didn't have any objections to their marketing methods. They were making money anyway, so it wasn't shabby.

But I can only say that they deserve it.

It's actually quite good to just take out the goods and trade them honestly.

Originally, it was enough to just do business, but in the end, it had to be related to tomb robbing.

It's just that they feel that their goods are relatively watery, and they want to use tomb robbing to improve their authenticity. To put it bluntly, it's gold plating.

But they have not considered that what they do is actually very unethical and is on the edge of the law.

However, Lin Ran was satisfied with being able to get a large amount of goods from them.

It's really hard to find such a scapegoat customer.

The antique industry is a mixed bag and full of scams.

But in this era, most deceptions are still in their infancy.

Lin Ran wouldn't take it seriously if there was a small probability of trading next to an ancient tomb.

So we can look at things more objectively.
