"Indeed, it will take a lot of time to sell such a large batch of goods."
Liu Qingzhong nodded slightly, "Sun Zhanguo is watching the foreign smuggling at the port, so there should be no mistakes."
"Xu Jinhe told me this. We must investigate immediately and find the person who received the stolen goods before Xu Jinhe."
I pretended to be a little urgent and said, "Secretary Liu, I'm not familiar with Jingjiang, so I can only ask you to help with the investigation."
"Well, I will send someone to find the point where stolen goods are collected in Jingjiang, and I will tell you if there is any news."
Liu Qingzhong nodded slightly, "I didn't expect it would cause such a big trouble this time."
"If this shipment is lost, money is missing."
"What other big trouble could there be?"
Chen Zebin pretended not to understand anything and spoke under my advance arrangement.
"Freeze said."
At this time, I pretended to teach my subordinates a lesson and asked Chen Zebin to shut up.
This trick of playing hard to get made Liu Qingzhong open his mouth to explain.
"Some of the goods in this batch are liked by the big boss in the capital. He asked me to help identify the authenticity and then send them over."
Liu Qingzhong slowly explained, "Maybe I can take you to the capital to hang out in the future!"
"What are some of them?"
I said with some curiosity, "Up until now, when it comes to looking at the goods, I haven't even seen the photos!"
"that's it."
Liu Qingzhong said, taking out a pamphlet from his briefcase.
The above are all photos, which are multi-angle photos of this batch of goods.
"The boss wants to collect these."
"As soon as he is happy, maybe I will be promoted to the capital directly."
Liu Qingzhong pointed to several of them.
"Fake."
I pointed to a bottle and said, "You can tell from the photo that this one is fake."
"How many are left..."
I became determined in the state of no physical object.
The quality of the goods Sun Zhanguo bought was very good. Except for one or two items that looked fake at first sight, the rest needed to be handled in person to be sure.
"Secretary Liu, can you make a copy of this brochure for me? I want to use this to confirm the goods."
I said and put the book away.
"Take it. I will help with the investigation. I will let you know if I have any news."
Liu Qingzhong sighed slightly as he spoke.
Then came a few days of waiting.
Xu Jinhyuk's news is indeed faster than Liu Qingzhong's.
After all, a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake. Xu Jinhe spends more time here and has a lot of connections.
While Liu Qingzhong was still sending people to find out, Xu Jinhe had already found the person who sold the stolen goods.
"Xu Jinhe seems to have some news, I'll go over and have a look."
After getting the news about Xu Jinhe, I deliberately pretended to be in a hurry and ran to Liu Qingzhong's room.
"ASAP!"
After hearing these two words, I immediately took Chen Zebin downstairs and took a taxi all the way to a market in the west of Jingjiang.
Xu Jinhyuk was already waiting for me at one of the markets.
Unlike Hezhou, which has a profound antique heritage, Jingjiang is more like a simple reselling market.
Good things from all over the world will be concentrated here, either smuggled or laundered.
"Follow me, an old man, on the second floor underground."
Following what Xu Jinhe said, I came to the second underground floor of the market.
The environment here is dim, with various rooms and stalls crowded everywhere. There are relatively few buyers.
"I investigated and found out that the person who received the goods was named Lei, and they called him Uncle Lei on the road."
"He is Sun Zhanguo's mortal enemy."
On the way, Xu Jinhe also gave me some knowledge about this guy who collects stolen goods.
When we walked into a room, a white-haired man was sitting on the sofa with a cane. He seemed to have been waiting for us for a long time.
"Uncle Lei, this is my friend, Shen Fan."
Xu Jinhyuk said and led me forward.
"You are Sun Zhanguo's undercover agent, what about this Shen Fan?"
"Just think of yourself as an undercover agent here with Liu Qingzhong."
Hearing Uncle Lei's words, I said directly: "I need this batch of goods."
"I roughly understand the matter, but if you want to send this batch of goods to Tao Ronghua's warehouse, aren't you afraid that Liu Qingzhong will think that Xu Jinhe deliberately framed it?"
Uncle Lei thought for a moment and said.
Only then did I understand that Xu Jinhe was on the surface a subordinate of Sun Zhanguo, but secretly he had very close ties with these Sun Zhanguo's mortal enemies.
As Sun Zhanguo's "companion", Liu Qingzhong is also their sworn enemy.
"Leave some of it."
I said, "Speaking of which, a batch of goods has been sent away before we have time to trace it. Let's get another smuggling ship number so that they can't find the source."
When I was talking about this, I secretly felt that Uncle Lei might have asked someone to do this...
Then I took out the brochure, pointed out a few items that Liu Qingzhong was interested in, and added a few insignificant items, "Keep these and send the rest away."
"Uncle Lei, it shouldn't be difficult to send it to Tao Ronghua's warehouse in Hezhou, right?"
After I said what goods I wanted, I asked slowly.
"It's not a big problem, but you have to pay."
Uncle Lei said, "What's the price of these goods? You have to give me 60% of the price."
"These goods have not been appraised, so where do they get the price?"
I said coldly, "Let me identify it."
"Uncle Lei, he can identify antiques."
"Or else, the appraisal fee and the purchase fee will be offset?"
Xu Jinhe said and smiled slightly.
"It doesn't matter, you have helped me for so long, but there are some things I also want, and you are determined together."
Uncle Lei said, leaning on crutches and slowly getting up, "The goods are here."
He opened a door and saw the stairs continuing downward.
This is considered the third underground floor. When I saw these goods, I slowly breathed a sigh of relief.
I began to identify them one by one and separate the real ones from the fake ones.
Of course, taking out just one genuine item is enough for cultural relics management to lock up smugglers for several years!
It is difficult to find a formal appraisal for laundering goods. Telling the truth or lies depends on your conscience.
Super professional appraisals like mine are even rarer.
After the appraisal was completed, Uncle Lei showed a satisfied smile, "Shen Fan, how about you stay in Jingjiang and do it with me?"
"Xu Jinhyuk is here too, and you also have many friends."
He said, looking at me with great admiration.
"No, I still have some unfinished business in Hezhou."
I immediately refused, "I'll give you the money. How about three million?"
"Depending on your mood, I don't mind if you give it to me."
Uncle Lei laughed as he spoke, "You take these back, it's the part you agreed on."
I was secretly relieved that the matter could be resolved so quickly.
Chen Zebin and I took the goods and left this dark and polluted underground together with Xu Jinhe.
"Xu Jinhe, bring these to Sun Zhanguo."
I said, putting the box containing the goods in Xu Jinhe's car, "I want to go back and report to Liu Qingzhong."
"I have a question. With these undiscovered goods, he doesn't think I'm trying to frame Tao Ronghua, right?"
At this time, Xu Jinhe asked a very difficult question.
Yes, even if this batch of goods arrives at Tao Ronghua's warehouse, it may be regarded as deliberately framing Tao Ronghua.
