After knowing that they were native masters, Lin Ran had a new idea in his mind.
Since the museum can cooperate with Tufuzi, why can't he?
Because he knew Lin Ran's personality, Liu Jingfeng also acted very candidly!
Liu Jingfeng really needs someone with strong treasure appraisal ability, because they are very confident in their ability to dig tombs. However, there are often a large number of funerary objects in tombs.
It is impossible for them to know the price of every funerary object, and they often sell it at a very low price.
It also caused them to invisibly damage a lot of interests.
If someone like Lin Ran could be in charge of the team, their income from stealing ancient tombs could be increased by at least half!
As a businessman, he knew the investment was a good deal.
That's why he was willing to take the risk and invite Lin Ran to join.
Li Yuanhao opened his mouth when he heard this. There are also ancient tombs in his hometown, and he has seen many tomb robbers.
However, this is the first time I have seen someone admit that he is a tomb robber so openly.
It shows that the other party really believes in them.
In other words, confident!
However, in Li Yuanhao's impression, tomb robbers are not good people, and they don't mind killing people and silencing them.
If they don't agree, will they be in danger?
Thinking of this, Li Yuanhao held the teacup in his hand tightly, planning to smash the teacup if an accident occurred and fight to the death with the other party.
Obviously, his little movements were caught by Liu Jingfeng.
Liu Jingfeng smiled and said: "Don't worry, our two factions are absolutely different. Even if you want to report us, we will not retaliate against you. However, everything must be based on evidence and you cannot make false accusations."
His words were full of threats and irony.
Lin Ran also noticed that Liu Jingfeng invited him to join his team from beginning to end. I never mentioned the word tomb robber.
As for the factions, he only mentioned two factions, but did not say which two factions they were.
Apparently he is also a shrewd old fox.
"So, what does Mr. Liu want me to do?" Lin Ran asked.
"Of course he will go to the grave with us." Liu Jingfeng said calmly.
Lin Ran suddenly felt a little interesting. Just now, he thought he was very smart, but now he said it directly.
Who does going to the grave?
Can this be said directly?
I thought he would make some excuse about collecting cultural relics, but I didn't expect him to be so direct.
"It's impossible to go to the tomb, but I can help identify the things you took out." Lin Ran thought for a moment and replied.
Liu Jingfeng smiled slightly, this was exactly what he needed.
"However, I have something to ask clearly." Lin Ran said seriously, "Are you from the Southern Clan?"
Liu Jingfeng took a sip of tea and said with a smile, "Exactly."
"Then I can cooperate with you!"
After getting the answer he wanted, Lin Ran took a sip of tea and added, "But if I find out that you have deceived me, I will immediately terminate the cooperation and tell the truth about you."
Liu Jingfeng burst out laughing: "Brother Lin, I know what you are worried about."
He had heard about Lin Ran's deeds in Panjiayuan, and through special channels, he also learned that Lin Ran had handed over a precious object representing Chinese civilization to Jiang Hua at a low price.
Therefore, he judged that Lin Ran was a person who valued cultural relics and history!
"I started learning to visit the tomb when I was eight years old, and so far I have not destroyed even half of the cultural relics, let alone caused any damage to the tomb chamber."
"Besides, I haven't settled the accounts with those rubbish from the Northern Faction yet!"
He gritted his teeth at the end, but it was not like he was pretending.
The northern sect of tomb robbers not only stole precious cultural relics, but also destroyed historical sites wantonly, so that the tomb robbers became the rats that everyone shouted at when crossing the street.
"That's good, please remember what you said." Lin Ran smiled and stretched out his hand.
Liu Jingfeng quickly stretched out his hand.
After shaking hands, the two said, "Do you know why I just told you to go to the grave?"
"I don't know." Lin Ran shook his head thoughtfully.
"Because in our industry, mutual trust is our bottom line. Otherwise, the people outside who are responsible for receiving goods will bury the people inside after getting the goods and monopolize them. Our industry will have no successors." Liu Jingfeng It was a bit helpless to say this.
People from the northern sect often do this kind of thing, so they have a bad reputation among the native masters.
"You can call me Da Liu from now on. I am quite famous in this circle. If you encounter any trouble, you can report my name."
"It's just that I also need your help."
Liu Jingfeng said frankly: "At present, we have basically excavated the large and small tombs of Qianling Mausoleum, but we found that there are still some hidden tombs near Qianlin."
"We were preparing to leave recently, but we were cheated by a businessman last time, so now we want to find a treasure appraisal expert to go with us."
"As for dividends, you can rest assured that you will be satisfied."
Liu Jingfeng gave his promise.
According to the standards of this industry, this is already a top-notch poaching job.
Lin Ran suddenly remembered something and asked, "Have you ever stolen the tomb of Concubine Wu Hui?"
"The tomb of Concubine Wu Hui?" Liu Jingfeng was stunned for a moment, then shook his head firmly, "No, I have never been there."
Concubine Wu Hui was the favorite concubine of Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty Li Longji. The love story between Li Longji and Concubine Yang has long been known to everyone.
In fact, before Concubine Yang, Li Longji had a deeply loved woman named Concubine Wu Hui.
She is the grand-niece of Wu Zetian. She has a delicate appearance, a gentle personality, and is proficient in music. She is deeply loved by Li Longji.
But because she was not a royal concubine, she was not buried in the imperial mausoleum.
Instead, she was buried in the mountains near her hometown.
However, Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty still sent people to build a luxurious mausoleum for her, named Jingling.
Jingling Mausoleum was the most severely damaged mausoleum. I remember news reports that tomb robbers used 5 tons of explosives to blow open the entire tomb chamber.
Not only were all the contents emptied out, but the ashes were even spread out by others.
It is extremely excessive, but the whereabouts of the tomb robbers have never been found.
That's why he wanted to test whether the tomb-robbing team in front of him did it?
Fortunately, that was not the case. If they really used this method, Lin Ran would report them no matter what.
Everyone hates this invisible tomb robber, who was never caught until later generations, and has become a regret in the hearts of people in the archaeological community.
National treasure-level cultural relics became fragments all over the place!
This incident happened some time ago, so Lin Ran asked more questions.
Obviously, Liu Jingfeng also knew about this.
He also sighed: "Actually, I only got the news about this tomb recently. Judging from their methods, it is definitely the Northern faction."
"To be honest with Brother Lin, I also hate them with all my heart. If I catch them, I will skin them and cut them to their bones."
Liu Jingfeng gritted his teeth and said that it was precisely because people from the Northern Sect did everything they could that their reputation in this society became increasingly bad.
It’s becoming more and more difficult to sell products!
No matter from the perspective of profit or morality, he is definitely a street rat!
"You can rest assured that we will never do anything to damage the tomb. In fact, there are many people in our southern faction who secretly cooperate with the state. Everything dug out will be sold to the state at a low price as soon as possible!"
There is no argument for handing it over to the state yet, so it is understandable that they make money from this.
