The information provided the specific time when the ruby ​​necklace was put into storage, the person who registered it, and how many people escorted the ruby ​​necklace. These events that happened that day were investigated in detail, including the home addresses and phone numbers of everyone who came into contact with the ruby ​​necklace that day.

After checking it out, all I had to do was write down the color of their underwear that day.

Su Hang glanced at it briefly and roughly skipped this information. It was basically useless. He continued to read it. Anyway, the man with glasses hasn't come back yet!

The intelligence showed that in the afternoon of the next day, a bank employee secretly came to the underground vault during off-duty hours. It was not possible to investigate what happened during the period, but it only lasted 10 minutes. After leaving, he went straight home from get off work.

This staff member met a man in a plaid shirt at a street bar not far from the apartment on the evening of the third day. The specific content of the chat is unknown. According to investigations, the man was the domestic slave of an executive secretary of the House of Commons. The executive secretary was just now

Archibald Walker, who took office not long ago.

After Archibald, several people have sent their subordinates or domestic slaves to the bank to find out information about the ruby ​​necklace, but so far no one has actually implemented the plan.

The London head office of Barclays Bank has super strong security measures. The vault is made of the world's most advanced metal eternium. This metal is produced after meteorites from outer space fall to the ground. It is so strong that even if the entire bank explodes,

Even if it is smashed, there will be no damage to the vault. Ever Gold was built by Barclayan Bank at a large cost and is only provided to the capital head office vaults of big countries.

The vault is the last line of protection. The London head office of Barclays Bank also hired several mercenaries to take turns guarding it secretly. The weapons and equipment are all the most advanced at present, and they were all purchased from abroad at high prices. Of course, there are also rumors that these weapons

The mercenaries were actually trained by Barclaine Bank at its own expense, but the bank never admitted it.

The mercenaries are covert guards. Overtly, Barclays Bank applied to the Metropolitan Police Department for stationed security. The London Head Office spent money to build a police station near Barclays Bank. This police station is better than other police stations in London.

They are all tall and impressive. Not only is the place large, the personnel are numerous, and the weapons are powerful, but police dogs are also specially trained. This is a unique police station in the entire city of London, and one of the few in the entire British Empire.

The entire London head office of Barclays Bank can be said to be an "iron wall", and the level of defense is simply disappointing. Many master thieves once went to the bank for treasures and to clear their names, but in the end, more than half of the thieves went to the bank for themselves.

The impulse paid the price. The thieves with excellent luck and skills added endless troubles to the latecomers and provided a wealth of experience for the upgrading of bank security work. This also discouraged more and more latecomers from doing so.

Dare to take a step beyond the boundaries.

Su Hang believed that someone must have secretly planned an action plan against the ruby ​​necklace. From the information obtained from the intelligence, it can be seen that several forces have already started investigating the London head office. The reason why there is no action is just because everyone is waiting for someone.

Suitable opportunity.

Under normal circumstances, the underground vault can only be opened when valuable treasures are stored. However, every 48 hours, the general manager will lead the security personnel of the security department to conduct routine inspections, and mercenaries will secretly monitor the people entering and exiting.

, even everyone including the president must have their weight measured before and after entering and exiting the underground vault to check everyone's physical condition to prevent anyone from taking the treasures out of the underground vault.

The underground vault is not the only vault at Barclain Bank. Except for valuable treasures that need to be stored, other items are not allowed to be deposited. There are two other vaults in the bank, which store items and money respectively.

The opening and closing times of the London head office, the number of entrances, the security conditions at the entrances, weapons equipment, etc. are all clearly displayed on the application form.

In terms of intelligence, even the personnel scheduling arrangements for the past week, the names, home addresses, and dates of birth of the personnel were investigated.

When Su Hang carefully flipped through the papers recording the information, the man with glasses who had left not long ago had quietly returned. He did not disturb Su Hang, but Su Hang still knew from the footsteps that the man was back.

"Sir, here are your 500 pounds." The man with black-rimmed glasses sat back on the sofa, took out five brand-new hundred-yuan pounds from his body, and placed them on the coffee table in front of Su Hang.

"Sir, this is a sub-card for our Shadow. Every customer who spends more than £1 in our Shadow for the first time will be given a sub-card. In the future, for all purchases at Shadow, % will be waived within 5 times. The fee is twenty." The man with black-framed glasses put a gray card next to the hundred-dollar pound again with a smile.

After the man with black-framed glasses finished speaking, he seemed to have remembered something, and said to Su Hang in front of him: "Sir, in addition to the discount function, the Shadow Sub-card also has a side benefit. You can use this card to enter the black market auction."

Suhang learned from Bird that to participate in the black market auction, you must have an invitation letter. Of course, if you don't have one, a deposit of 500 pounds will be exchanged for the auction ticket, and a fee of 50 pounds will be charged. If the customer spends more than 0 pounds at the auction , you can directly waive the ticket fee.

"Interesting! No wonder you Shadows are so famous and your thinking is so advanced!" Su Hang said.

"Sir, I hope you will come again!" The man with glasses smiled and said goodbye.

"goodbye!"

Su Hang returned to the original atrium, and Bird had disappeared. Obviously, this tour guide had ended the moment he walked into Shadow's internal reception room.

He was walking aimlessly on the streets of the black market, thinking in his mind about how he could cause chaos in Barclain Bank first and attract those who were plotting against the ruby ​​necklace, so that he could secretly take action.

Soon I had a rough plan in mind, but the cash I carried was obviously not enough, and there would definitely be expenses in the future.

Fortunately, before going to the black market, I went to the bank and picked up a gemstone bracelet. There was a rare blue diamond in the center, shaped like an eye, and its shining brightness attracted people's attention like moonlight.

Its origin cannot be traced anymore. It was called the Eye of the Moon by the people in the bank. This is also a relatively low-valued piece of jewelry in that batch. Even if it is a low-valued piece, the eyes in the bank can't be traced. The staff who had the faint light of money in it were extremely reluctant to take it out and give it to Suhang.

The best way to deal with jewelry such as the Eye of the Moon is to auction it. It is relatively safe for banks to handle this kind of thing. However, this time it cannot be done through the bank. It can only be done through the black market auction house. The only uncertainty in Suhang now is the auction. Will the price be lower than that at the bank, but in order to get that charming ruby ​​necklace, I can only do it at any cost.

black market auction house

The "Thug Party" office building is also today's black market auction house. People are constantly coming in and out of the building. People wearing robes of various colors and wearing masks of different styles are walking toward the auction. People almost don't speak to each other.

Even if someone spoke, it was in a low voice after the two parties were close to each other. They could only hear the friction of shoes hitting the ground.

Needless to say, if you can eliminate the sound of friction between shoes and the ground, people will be like a group of ghosts shaking in the night. Wearing cloaks will add to the mystery. If paired with scary sound effects, it will be lifelike.

thriller.

After walking out of the intelligence dealer's door, Su Hang kept wandering around, thinking about how to combine the information to obtain the ruby ​​necklace.

Unknowingly, I walked into the crowd, and as people walked towards the black market auction, at this time, it was already the beginning of the black market auction house, and many people who came specially for a certain item had already walked in in advance.

At the auction house, as for others, they are purely trying their luck. Maybe something useful to them will be auctioned.

Black market auction houses are different from outside auction houses. Those well-known auction houses in the world can store customers' items, conduct valuations, authenticate authenticity and other related matters about the items. Auction houses in the black market only care about consignment and the source of the items.

No one will care about such problems, and the auction house will only charge one-tenth of the handling fee based on the final price of the consigned item.

The handling fee is not cheap, but few people who can come to the black market for consumption will care about the mere one-tenth of the handling fee, but that does not mean that everyone must pay one-tenth. In large-scale companies that cooperate with the black market

The Chamber of Commerce will issue some items similar to discount cards according to different situations. These discount cards have the function of reducing or reducing handling fees in black market auction houses. The only difference is the amount of reduction.

The secondary card from Shadow in Suhang's hand can be reduced or exempted from the handling fee, but it can only be reduced once, only in this black market auction. If it is not used in this auction, then the Shadow secondary card will be used in the next auction.

The card becomes useless.

Old information dealers like Shadow have long-term cooperation in the black market. Even if the other party comes very rarely, their reputation is great! They attract a lot of customers, so they have to let the black market win over them.

For this reason, the black market and the well-known chamber of commerce jointly issued a reduction card. All sub-cards like Suhang's are collectively called reduction cards.

In front of the black market auction house, everyone is queuing up and entering the building one after another. The auction house does not have a so-called member channel. Almost everyone here has hidden their identity. No one is stupid enough to announce their home in a big way.

, attracting everyone's attention. They lined up quietly and slowly, and after paying the fees one by one, walked into the auction house building.

From the moment Suhang queued up, he looked at the people queuing up and entering the auction house. Suhang found that not everyone paid the fee. Some people took out a card from their body. The man in a short jacket who was in charge of registration at the door

The card will be registered in detail. After registration, two men in plaid shirts who are as strong as cattle will check whether they are carrying any prohibited items. After checking, if there are no problems, they will let the other party enter the auction house.

Among the people who were constantly advancing, Su Hang carefully observed the people in front of them who had cards. He found that these cards looked very similar to the secondary card given to him by the Shadow Auction House. After these cards passed into the hands of people from the auction house,

A plier-like punch will be used to punch a hole in the lower right corner of the card, seemingly to prove that the card has been used.

In the slow queue, it was Su Hang's turn. Su Hang followed the example of the person in front and handed the secondary card from Shadow to the man in the jacket in front of him.

After taking Su Hang's shadow secondary card registration, he punched a hole in the lower right corner, looked at Su Hang and said expressionlessly: "Sir, your secondary card is only for this black market auction, but this does not affect your use in the black market auction.

The Consumption of Shadows.”

"Sir, this is your access card, please keep it!" the man in the jacket said with a smile.

"Thanks!"

Su Hang walked to the door of the building, and the two burly men stood in front of Su Hang. One of the big men motioned to Su Hang to open his arms and check whether there were weapons attached to his arms and robes. The other big man walked up to Su Hang.

Su Hang patted the back of his robe and checked whether there were any weapons hidden behind him that had not been checked properly. Soon the two big men completed the inspection and moved out of the way to let Su Hang enter the building.

The office building of the "Thug Party" is five stories high. The black market auction house occupies the entire building. The first floor is responsible for sending auctions. Merchants who come to set up stalls in the black market or customers who come to shop in the black market can send auctions on the first floor.

Generally, auction houses have treasure appraisers to identify the authenticity of items sent for auction. Porcelain items need to be inspected for minor defects. Those well-known large-scale auctions will invite different types of treasure appraisers to conduct targeted inspections.

They are responsible for their customers and they are also responsible for themselves. However, the black market is different from the outside world. The black market has black market rules. Auction house treasure appraisers are generally miscellaneous people who can appraise anything, but they cannot be as meticulous as this.

It takes a lot of money to train a professional treasure appraiser, and it cannot be achieved overnight.

The top executives of the black market have also thought about recruiting treasure appraisers from outside, but the vast majority of treasure appraisers look down on the dark forces like the black market, saying that they cannot see the light and can only survive underground like mice. As treasure appraisers,

They are usually invited by nobles and valued by wealthy families, and they look down on the power of the black market at all. Generally speaking, a small number of treasure appraisers either have no guarantee in terms of ability, or they are unwilling to stay in their own country and go to a foreign country to develop.

This makes it extremely difficult to recruit treasure appraisers from outside the black market, so they have to train their own treasure appraisers. However, most of the trained treasure appraisers are miscellaneous. It can be said that they are good at everything but not good at anything. But in general,

Black market auction house treasure appraisers are infallible.

There is a low-end auction on the second floor. The highest transaction price will not be higher than 50,000 pounds. Most of them are not treasures and can be sold on street stalls. There are not many buyers who know the goods, so they have to take it to the auction house for auction, hoping to sell it.

Good price.

The third floor is different from the second floor. There is no auction item with the lowest transaction price lower than 50,000 pounds. If you want to participate in the auction on the third floor, there are only two ways: the first is to auction the total amount in the black market auction house for more than 100,000 pounds.

Eligibility to participate in the advanced auction; the second type, owners of treasures valued at more than 50,000 pounds by treasure appraisers on the first floor can participate in the advanced auction on the third floor.

The fourth and fifth floors are off limits, and no one knows what’s on them?

The stairs leading to the fourth floor were blocked by a group of men in black robes, and no one was allowed to go up to the fourth floor. Suhang did not find out any relevant information. Bird knew something about the entire black market, but he didn't know much about the black market auction.
Chapter completed!
