This is an "official" artificial conversation.
Before I could react, I heard the voice of my seventh uncle: "Shen Fan, come in."
I quickly entered the room with Chen Cheng, and Zhou Jianguo also followed.
"You made Secretary Liu very unhappy today."
As soon as he entered the door, Uncle Qi got straight to the point.
"This is his problem. My gift was repackaged and appeared in Tao Ronghua's hands."
I wanted to tell the truth, but was interrupted by my seventh uncle.
"I don't want to worry about this."
Uncle Seventh spoke slowly, "I will give you a chance now, a chance to save you."
His eyes were very serious, and the speed of plating walnuts in his hands was also increasing.
"If what Uncle Seventh wants to say is to work under you, then there is no need to mention it again."
I spoke slowly, "I, Shen Fan, have my own principles and I definitely don't belong to anyone."
"Now that we're talking about this..."
Uncle Seventh's brows were furrowed and there was a trace of regret in his eyes, "You have to take care of yourself. Secretary Liu will not let it go."
"I can help with other things, but don't come to me if you have anything to do with Secretary Liu in the future."
After that, he sighed and waved me away.
"Thank you, Uncle Seven, for your kindness."
After I bowed my hands and saluted, I slowly left with Chen Cheng.
"Brother Shen, why don't you understand?"
Zhou Jianguo looked anxious when he saw me off, "Uncle Seventh wants to save you!"
Only then did I understand what the seventh uncle was talking to Liu Qingzhong just now.
What Uncle Seventh meant was that if I were under Uncle Seven, Liu Qingzhong would not pursue the matter of the birthday banquet, and he would not cause trouble for me in the future.
But the seventh uncle wants Liu Qingzhong to open a restaurant in Fumin Flower and Bird.
"sorry."
Zhou Jianguo, I thought I regretted it, but that was not what I meant.
"I appreciate Uncle Seventh's kindness. I have never been afraid of anyone. I speak openly and will not be afraid of anyone."
"All right."
Zhou Jianguo sighed, with appreciation and regret in his eyes.
After the birthday party, I continued to improve the stratification of goods in the store, ranging from cheap to expensive.
From time to time, some middle-class or slightly wealthy people come to look at the goods in the store.
Because the things I sell here are all real - some people buy them and then authenticate them to confirm that they are real, so the reputation slowly spreads to the entire Dongxing Pedestrian Street.
Just when I thought things were on the right track, trouble struck.
One morning a month later, I was packing my things as usual.
Lu Yunchuan's performance is getting better and better, and he can already recognize some antiques.
"Brother Shen! Come and take a look!"
“This thing is not from our store!”
Lu Yunchuan discovered an anomaly when comparing the bills.
Chen Cheng and I rushed to the basement after hearing the news.
"There is no receipt for this sword. And we don't have any such thing as a sword, right?"
Lu Yunchuan took out the things and frowned.
Han sword?
This thing is like a curse. This is the third time we have met!
"Hide this thing first, I will take it away at night."
I frowned, "Let's continue working."
With that said, I returned to the hall.
"Hasn't this thing been returned to Tao Ronghua?"
Chen Cheng was also confused, "Why...are you here again?"
"I don't know. Let's check the surveillance first."
I suspect someone sneaked it in at night.
It was obvious that someone was trying to set me up.
We must find out, otherwise the hall will never be able to open - since we have given something away, someone will definitely report it and follow the trend to investigate!
Surveillance showed that no one came.
This means that the goods are delivered from the recipient.
The calligraphy and painting boss I specialize in buying goods has already been protected by Uncle Seven, so someone else should have done it... I need to find out.
Just as I was rushing downstairs to go to the wholesale market with Chen Cheng, a group of people in suits walked in.
"Hello, we are from the Cultural Relics Management Office."
"We received a report that contraband was hidden in your antique shop."
"Please allow us to inspect you."
As they said this, this group of people started searching my store with expressionless faces and very rudely.
Contraband?
It’s just the Han sword!
I realize that this time the enemy is quite difficult.
He is more rigorous than Tao Ronghua and his attacks are more ruthless!
Liu Qingzhong!
Only then did I understand what Zhou Jianguo meant on his birthday.
Just when I thought I had nothing to do and was careless, I suddenly attacked...
"Mr. Shen Fan, we found this in your warehouse. The authenticity needs to be verified. Now please come with us."
The person in charge of the search has found Han Jian and wants to take me away. "Your store needs to be closed temporarily."
I gritted my teeth and nodded slightly.
I was indeed caught off guard by this lightning-fast combination of punches.
Maybe it's because the stable life has been a little long and I have become relaxed.
"Shen Fan? What should we do?"
Chen Cheng looked anxious.
"You go back and wait for news. I should be fine."
I said and smiled slightly.
As I entered the police car, the store was temporarily sealed.
Xiao Chen and Xiao Luo helped lock the door, and I watched them close the store from the car window as I left.
I kept thinking about countermeasures in the car.
But this time I was so caught off guard that I couldn't think of any solution.
Everything happened so fast. As soon as I found out, someone came...
And this sword has no origin, I can't explain it at all... Even if I say it belongs to Tao Ronghua, he will not admit that there is such a thing...
"According to the regulations of our Cultural Relics Administration, if the identification is true, the sale and transportation of this sword will be punishable by a minimum of five years in prison."
In the car, the person who seemed to be their leader spoke to me, as if he was just kindly reminding me.
How could I not know this?
Not long after, I was sent to the police station.
"The things are still being appraised, so we mainly make notes for you."
In the interrogation room, a policeman walked in.
"I don't know where that sword came from..."
I'll tell you the truth, it's obviously not working.
The transcript was made quickly, and I was detained quickly.
I was placed in a single cell, at least free from the harassment of some crazy people.
Sitting inside, I thought about countermeasures.
Just as I was concentrating, the cell door opened, "Shen Fan, someone wants to see you."
With that said, I was taken to a room.
I thought the person who wanted to see me was Chen Cheng, but after opening the door, it was Liu Qingzhong who walked in.
"Shen Fan, Shen Fan..."
He muttered and sat in front of me, pretending to sigh and said, "I never thought you would do such a thing."
"Whoever did it knows full well."
"I think it's okay to talk openly."
I braced myself and spoke slowly.
Unexpectedly, he took out his mobile phone.
"Turn off the surveillance and recording, and disperse the people around you."
As I said that, I saw the monitor light above turn off.
"Okay, it's time to tell me what you think."
This is a threat. A naked threat!
