Chapter 7624
A Dream of Getting Rich Overnight
Jiang Youwei discovered that he had no control over his mouth at all.
What I think in my mind is completely different from what I say.
While he was thinking about giving false testimony for Boss Fang, he continued to say, "What Mr. Xiao said just now is absolutely right, which shows Mr. Xiao's ability in appraisal. I completely agree. Although this porcelain vase is a pretty good imitation, as long as you look closely, you can find many flaws!"
"My final assessment is that this is a fake, a modern imitation, and its value is less than 100 yuan."
When Boss Fang heard Jiang Youwei's words, he was furious. Jiang Youwei had just agreed, how could he suddenly side with Xiao Chen?
He couldn't understand it at all, so he got even angrier. His body went limp, and he collapsed to the ground.
He knew he was finished...
If he had known it would turn out this way, he would have just admitted it was fake, and Xiao Chen wouldn't have made things difficult for him. But now it's too late to say anything.
Officer Liu looked coldly at Boss Fang. He was a man who hated evil and disliked people who used counterfeit goods to deceive customers.
What's more, this Boss Fang actually dared to extort 50 million! Has he lost his mind? He really dares to do that!
"What else do you have to say now? You don't believe Mr. Xiao, but do you not believe what Jiang Youwei, the expert, says either?"
"No...no...I...right, I was also fooled. It's all a misunderstanding, a complete misunderstanding."
Boss Fang knew he couldn't swindle the money anymore. The most important thing right now was to clear himself of trouble, otherwise he might really end up in jail.
He's been in business for so many years and has made some money. Once he's in jail, who knows who will take his money?
"Officer Liu, Mr. Xiao, you must believe me! I really am a victim too. I didn't intentionally commit fraud..."
Officer Liu remained silent, waiting for his team's investigation report.
Soon, several police officers returned.
They questioned the shop's staff and reviewed the security footage, ultimately concluding that Mr. Fang had spilled the water himself, as clearly captured on the surveillance footage.
"Hey Fang, what do you have to say for yourself now? You can't be forced to water things by someone else, can you?"
Xiao Chen sneered repeatedly.
Mr. Fang opened his mouth, his face turning red and then white, unable to utter another word in defense. He could only lower his head, trembling all over, filled with remorse...
He never expected that his carefully planned scam would backfire on Xiao Chen, and even alarm Jiang Youwei and the police.
Officer Liu snorted coldly, glanced at Boss Fang with icy eyes, and gave an order to the young police officer behind him:
"Take the person back, interrogate them thoroughly, and investigate this fraud case completely."
The amount defrauded is a staggering 50 million, a truly enormous sum that will put him in serious trouble! Also, check if his shop has any other counterfeit goods or other fraudulent activities!
"Yes, Captain Liu!" The young policeman nodded and stepped forward to handcuff Boss Fang.
"Officer Liu! Officer Liu! Please, please spare me this time!"
Boss Fang panicked and struggled desperately, roaring, "I have connections! I know the leaders in your bureau! You can't arrest me! You'll regret it if you do!"
Officer Liu looked at him and said coldly:
"You have connections? Who? Just tell me, and I'll investigate! Everyone is equal before the law. No matter who you know, if you break the law, you must be punished!"
Boss Fang was completely dumbfounded, collapsing to the ground, all traces of his previous arrogance and ferocity gone... He finally realized that he had truly bitten off more than he could chew today. Xiao Chen was not someone he could afford to offend, and his deception had been completely exposed.
The young police officer took out handcuffs, put them on Mr. Fang, and escorted him out. As Mr. Fang walked, he cried and begged for mercy, but no one paid him any attention.
Those burly men, seeing that Boss Fang had been arrested and the police were also present, were terrified and fled in the chaos, not daring to utter a single word of explanation.
The second floor returned to quiet.
The fragments on the ground were also taken away as evidence.
Yun Yuyan sighed deeply: "How can a person be so evil? If it weren't for you today, I might have ruined my life. It's terrifying!"
Her hands were still trembling; she was clearly terrified and had yet to regain her composure.
Yun Yuyan thought she had experienced quite a lot, but this was the first time she had ever encountered something like this. It was too outrageous and too bizarre.
Seriously, if it weren't for Xiao Chen, she would have been foolish enough to pay him back and would have been stuck in that situation for the rest of her life.
Xiao Chen smiled and said, "You learn from your mistakes. Actually, his scam wasn't very clever. As long as you don't panic and call the police, it can be resolved."
Yun Yuyan smiled wryly: "Don't even mention it. I was terrified at the time. Besides, I was no match for those big, burly martial artists. If you hadn't been there, I probably would have been beaten up."
"Then you'd better practice your martial arts properly. I've given you and Keying some really good stuff. You two should practice hard. Those few good-for-nothings can't possibly stump you."
"I will!" Yun Yuyan clenched her fists. She had almost forgotten that this was no ordinary era; it was the era of martial artists.
If you don't know any kung fu, people definitely won't reason with you.
After a moment, she sighed again, stood up and said, "Forget it, I really give up. Antiques are not something a newbie like me can handle. The market is too deep, and I could easily go bankrupt."
"So, are you still going to buy the antiques you're giving to customers?" Xiao Chen asked with a smile.
"Of course I want them, but I dare not touch them. Can you help me pick out a few? They don't need to be too expensive, as long as they are genuine. Just don't let the customers think I'm taking advantage of them."
"No problem. I guarantee I'll pick out a few genuine antiques for you that aren't too expensive, but will still satisfy customers and make you look good."
For Xiao Chen, picking out a few antiques was no problem at all. There were plenty of genuine antiques on the street, and although most of them weren't expensive, they were at least authentic.
"Thank you... Sigh, I don't know what to say. How about I repay you with my body?" Yun Yuyan said with a smile.
"Don't get me into trouble. If my wife finds out, she'll kill me. Let's go home first. I bet you're exhausted by now. I'll help you choose the antiques."
Xiao Chen hurriedly waved his hand and walked outside.
Yun Yuyan sighed, a hint of disappointment on her face, and then followed him out.
This time, Yun Yuyan sat in the back seat while Xiao Chen drove. After all, Yun Yuyan was in such a state that she couldn't drive; her legs were probably still weak.
That girl was really scared just now.
The car started and drove towards the villa.
Yun Yuyan said with some emotion, "Xiao Chen, am I particularly naive? Do I still love to dream about impossible things? Take today's incident, for example. I was so stupid, always trying to find a bargain, but I almost got myself into trouble." (End of Chapter)
