C459 He Demanded an Exorbitant Price

0After understanding this, Ye Fei immediately left the hotel and found a taxi at the intersection.    

    

"Boss, where are you going?"    

    

The taxi driver was a man in his 40s with a dark face and a warm expression. He greeted Ye Fei. The taxi drivers in the north were all scholars who knew astronomy. They knew geography and everything else. They liked to chat very much, so there were guests coming over, and they seemed to be from other places. They were all very enthusiastic.    

    

"I heard that there is a market that specializes in selling antiques here. Where is it?"    

    

Ye Fei handed a cigarette to the taxi driver and asked casually.    

    

"There are several antique markets. I wonder which one you are talking about?"    

    

The taxi driver looked up at Ye Fei. He seemed to be analyzing whether Ye Fei was a police officer in casual clothes or a real antique dealer in the antique market.    

    

After all, there were legal and illegal antique markets in Tianlin. If the police investigated and the taxi driver brought the police to the antique market, he would be the one in trouble.    

    

"This is the address. Take a look."    

    

Ye Fei saw that there was a chance, so he told them the address of the ancient Dong market.    

    

Unexpectedly, the taxi driver's face immediately changed. He rolled up the window and drove away. However, the taxi driver drove forward a few hundred meters and stopped the car again. He opened the door and waved at Ye Fei to let him get in the car.    

    

Ye Fei was a little disappointed, but seeing that the driver had changed his mind, he quickly walked up and sat in the backseat. He asked, "Master, what's wrong with you? Why do you want to leave when you hear this address?"    

    

The taxi driver swallowed his saliva and turned to look at Ye Fei. "Officer, don't play with me. I'm a law-abiding citizen."    

    

"I'm really not a police officer."    

    

Ye Fei said seriously.    

    

The driver looked at Ye Fei suspiciously, as if he was sure that Ye Fei was not a police officer. He then relaxed and said, "Big brother, it's not that I'm suspicious and ill, but this place you mentioned... It's not very legal. What are you going to do there? Are you going to buy something? Or are you going to sell something?"    

    

Ye Fei wanted to say that he was going to look for someone, but after thinking about it, after all, this was Celestial Craftsman's territory. His influence should be quite big. If he said that he was looking for him... He reckoned that the taxi driver wouldn't have taken him there, so he lied. God said mysteriously, "I have a treasure passed down from my ancestors. Recently, my hands have been tight. I heard that there is such an ancient Dong market in Tianlin City, so I came here because of the fame. Let's see if we can exchange it for some money "    

    

When the taxi driver heard that Ye Fei was selling things, he could not help swallowing his saliva. "Selling things is good. However, the market you are looking for, they are all doing business with acquaintances."    

    

"Familiars? They are familiar with business, so how can they be considered acquaintances?"    

    

Ye Fei blinked his eyes. He was not unfamiliar with the Underground Ancient Dong Market. He was just pretending to be stupid and said.    

    

"An acquaintance. Of course, he knows the owner of the market." The taxi driver looked at Ye Fei and said.    

    

"This..."    

    

Ye Fei scratched his head and said, "What's going on? Could it be that no one wants this thing of mine?"    

    

Hearing what Ye Fei said, the taxi driver became even more energetic. He smiled and said, "Boss, this thing of yours is quite valuable. Can you let me open my eyes and broaden my horizons? "    

    

"That won't do. This thing of mine is a treasure passed down from my ancestors. I can't let others see it casually."    

    

Ye Fei shook his head and sighed. "It's mainly because I can't see the light. I heard that there are a lot of bosses in Tianlin City. If you have good taste, you can tell the difference. The most important thing is that you have money. They can afford my stuff. I didn't expect there to be so many restrictions when doing business here. Sigh, this is a wasted trip."    

    

Ye Fei opened the car door and was about to get out of the car. He seemed really disappointed and didn't intend to look for this Ancient Dong Market anymore.    

    

"Hey, boss, don't be anxious."    

    

The taxi driver hurriedly got out of the car and pulled Ye Fei back. He smiled coyly and said, "It doesn't matter even if you don't show it to me. Good things can't be casually shown to others. I told you just now that it's our rule. I happen to know a boss. As long as the goods are good, I can trade with you. Money is definitely indispensable. "    

    

" Oh?"    

    

Ye Fei perked up and said, "Really? Don't we have to know each other before we can make a deal?"    

    

"One life, two lives. Besides, the one I introduced can't be considered a stranger."    

    

The taxi driver patted his chest to make a guarantee.    

    

"Oh, then I'll thank you first."    

    

Ye Fei smiled.    

    

The taxi driver looked up at Ye Fei and took a puff of his cigarette. He said, "Boss, I think this is also your first time in Tianlin City. Besides, I'm a straightforward person. I like to help others. But there's something I need to tell you first. "    

    

"Tell me, as long as you can help me with this, there's nothing wrong with it." Ye Fei answered very straightforwardly.    

    

"Hehe..."    

    

The taxi driver smiled and said, "Boss, look, I'll help you connect the bridge and bring you to that boss. He could be considered the middleman. According to our rules, if the business is done, the middleman... One percent to five percent."    

    

Ye Fei had actually thought of this long ago when the taxi driver said this.    

    

Ye Fei had heard his grandfather say before that it was a black market for antique trading. There was indeed such a saying. It seemed like this black market in Tianlin City for antique trading... The scale was indeed not small, even taxi drivers knew so much. It could be seen that these taxi drivers were usually involved in such matters. Once there were tourists who were interested in antique trading, they would bring people over. Usually, they would make a lot of money.    

    

However, a 1% to 5% commission was definitely not a small amount for an antique.    

    

Even an ordinary antique would cost tens of thousands of dollars. Even a 1% commission was a few hundred dollars. If it was a better antique, it would be normal to sell it for a few hundred thousand dollars. According to the 5% commission rate, it would be more than ten thousand dollars for the cab driver. There wouldn't be such a commission anywhere.    

    

Ye Fei looked at the taxi driver. This person looked very enthusiastic on the surface, but in reality, he treated Ye Fei as his sugar daddy. If it were a lion, it would open its mouth wide and try to earn a sum of money from him.    

    

However, Ye Fei did not come here to sell antiques. Therefore, it did not matter how much he drew. What was important was to find Celestial Craftsman.    

    

"Is it one percent or five percent?"    

    

Ye Fei asked casually, but he did not agree immediately. If he agreed immediately, the taxi driver might become suspicious.    

    

"How much is it exactly? It depends on how much your goods are worth."    

    

The taxi driver said, "Generally speaking, the higher the price, the more money you get. The fewer shelves, the less success you get from the lottery. Over 100,000 yuan, that's 5%. "    

    

" It can't be! "    

    

Ye Fei's eyes widened, and he was very surprised. He said, "You want to smoke so much? According to what you said, if I sell this piece, wouldn't you want to take out a few million?"    

0

    

"Big brother, you are so funny!"    

    

The taxi driver suddenly laughed and said," Even if you take five percent, what's a few million? This antique of yours, can it be sold for tens of millions? Hehe, Boss, you're really humorous!"    

    

" Who's joking with you! "    

    

Ye Fei stared at him and said seriously, "Alright, I won't tell you too much. No matter how much you sell it, I will give you one percent. How about it? "    

    

Actually, the taxi drivers in Tianlin City often did this kind of business. They bullied foreign customers who didn't understand the rules of this market, so they purposely gave them a commission. In fact, one percent was an extra income for them. Many people didn't even get a percentage.    

    

Therefore, when the taxi driver saw Ye Fei say that, he was secretly delighted.    

    

Seeing Ye Fei being so careful, the antiques he sold should have some value. Perhaps they were dug out from the ancient tomb and could be worth tens of thousands of yuan. No matter what kind of antique Ye Fei had, he had at least gotten a few hundred yuan.
