"This is a little thought that Uncle Seven asked me to give you."
"He said, please bear with me about Miss Su."
As he said that, Zhou Jianguo gave me a jade pendant with the word "seven" on it.
"This is all a matter of personal responsibility. The things are too valuable and I can't accept them."
I declined. The meaning of the word "qi" was obvious. Uncle Qi wanted to bring me under his influence.
But I don't have this idea. It's better for Tangkou to be independent.
We can have a good relationship, but we have to be clear about you and me. What's more, I am not speaking out within the seventh uncle's sphere of influence.
"I understand. If Brother Shen has any trouble, you can tell me. Uncle Seventh will not just sit idly by."
Zhou Jianguo understood what I meant, put away the jade pendant and nodded slightly, "What happened today is very exciting. I will report it to my seventh uncle."
He was the last "guest" to leave the store.
I took advantage of the situation and closed the store.
"Lu Yunchuan, please stay here for a while."
After Ronaldinho and Xiao Chen got off work, I took Chen Cheng to find Lu Yunchuan.
"Brother Shen, just tell me. I can compensate you as much as I can."
He lowered his head as if he had made a mistake and spoke in a low voice.
"I don't blame you. I personally saw these goods. If there is any problem, it should be me."
I said and patted his shoulder, "Chen Cheng, please bring the receipt and I'll check the goods."
I suspect it was just good luck this time. Tao Ronghua was able to say the last thing. He should have subcontracted more than one item.
With this in mind, I took Lu Yunchuan to the basement. He took the receipt and inspected the goods. Chen Cheng and I appraised and distributed the goods.
Several of the goods I brought were fake.
I suddenly took a breath of cold air. If I really bring a few more fake ones... it will be difficult to end it.
"Brother Shen, everything is right."
On the other side, Lu Yunchuan has already matched all the goods according to the receipt.
I found that the fakes were concentrated in calligraphy and painting, and only two bowls were fake.
"Calligraphy and painting..."
I muttered to myself as I recalled.
I only buy calligraphy and painting from one store, and the calligraphy and painting are all rolled up. I don’t check them carefully every time I take them out...
Thinking about it this way, I roughly know Tao Ronghua’s method of subcontracting:
The items I ordered were replaced by fake ones. They were packed in small packages when they arrived!
It is indeed vicious, and if you are not careful, it will cause disaster.
I told Chen Cheng my thoughts.
"We must ask Tao Ronghua for an explanation!"
Chen Cheng looked angry, but did not take immediate action.
After the last route, she also knew that she couldn't just settle accounts casually.
"We have to catch the current situation. I'll buy some more goods from this calligraphy and painting boss. If I catch him, I'll ask him about it."
I thought about it and said, "Lu Yunchuan, when the store opens tomorrow, you won't be able to put the things on the left. You really need to put the things on the right."
"yes!"
Lu Yunchuan stood up straight and barely saluted.
After doing this, I closed the basement door and walked out of the store. The manager breathed a sigh of relief.
If you embarrass Tao Ronghua today, you will be in trouble later.
The next day I drove to the market by myself and went straight to the calligraphy and painting wholesale shop.
"Brother Shen, are you here again?"
The boss greeted me with a big smile.
In order not to reveal my secret, I naturally greeted him with a smile, "The goods you have here are good and they are selling well. I will buy some more."
As I said that, I started looking for it in the store.
Most of them were fake, but I could pick out three or four that were real.
"Same as usual, I'll make a reservation first and pick it up in two days. The warehouse is a little short."
I smiled, gave the deposit, and took the receipt.
Back in the store, I saw Amelia Su.
She's causing trouble again.
This time a bottle was broken.
Compared to Tao Ronghua, who is cunning and cunning, Su Yu's troubles are "simple and violent".
"This is fake!"
As I walked closer to the shelf, I heard Su Yu quibble, "It's not up to you to decide whether it's true or not!"
This time, I am not going to be polite. I have already taken care of Mr. Zhou and Uncle Seven, so when she comes again, I will take care of business.
"This...Kangxi blue and white peony bowl is absolutely authentic."
I leaned down, picked up the fragments and spoke slowly, "Let's go to a professional institution to authenticate it. If it's genuine, you have to buy it at the price. If it's fake, I'll give you this genuine sign. .”
"You...you bully me!"
Su Yu looked anxious, "Don't you just want to get involved with my grandpa? I'll call my grandpa over now!"
She picked up her phone and wanted to make a call, but I held it down.
"It has nothing to do with your grandfather. This is your fault."
I said coldly, "Let's go to the appraisal. Chen Cheng, help me look after the store."
"what are you doing!"
Amelia Su quickly shook it off, with disgust for me written all over her face, "I'll just pay!"
She threw down a bank card, "There's enough money in it!"
With that said, Su Yu didn't look back, covered her mouth and ran out.
I was probably going to file a complaint again, but I wasn't in the mood to care about Su Yu. I immediately walked up to Chen Cheng and said, "You and I will pick up the goods the day after tomorrow."
"The boss didn't say anything?"
Chen Cheng asked thoughtfully, "I remember you reported the name of the seventh uncle before..."
"Let's talk about it again, just like before, stick to the current situation."
After that, I opened my mouth as usual.
Two days later, I took Chen Cheng to the antique wholesale market. This time I was fully prepared.
Chen Cheng and I came to the store together.
"Boss, we are here to pick up the goods."
I forced myself to smile, "Are you ready?"
"Over there, six in total."
The boss was minding his own business and just pointed to the box next to him.
After all, we were familiar with each other after going back and forth a few times, and he knew it was me at a glance.
But this time I didn't just take the things away. Instead, I opened the box and checked one item after another.
Sure enough, only one of the six items was authentic.
"Boss, these are different from what I ordered. Did you pretend to be wrong?"
I said, taking out my phone and showing the photos of the goods when I came to purchase them the day before yesterday, "So now it's like this?"
After hearing my words, the boss immediately raised his head, with a hint of panic on his face first, and then a smile.
"I must have picked it up by mistake. Let me take a look."
He walked over with a smile on his face.
I gave Chen Cheng a wink, and she immediately pulled down the rolling shutter door of the store, while I grabbed the boss's arm, "Who asked you to change the contract?"
"You... must have made a mistake. My guy must have made a mistake."
The boss showed an awkward smile, "What is this for?"
"More than once, you get it wrong every time?"
I spoke slowly, "I've already told my seventh uncle about the matter, and he should be able to help me handle it."
As a last resort, these three words are so easy to use. As a means of intimidation, they are definitely tried and tested in Hezhou!
"This this……"
The boss stumbled for a long time without saying a word.
"Say who it is and you won't be held responsible."
"We can also continue to work together."
I said, there was even a hint of murderous intent in my eyes.
"I was forced too!"
