The piece of paper that Zhuang Rui handed to Uncle De recorded the number and amount of luxury goods that Wang Ding had collected from the pawn shop in the past year. The total number was ninety-eight, involving an amount of nine hundred.
720,000 RMB, four of which were taken away by Wang Bingyi, resulting in a loss of 290,000 RMB.
The remaining ninety-four pieces of jewelry luxury goods were sold through auctions and self-sales, with a total of 88 pieces sold, and the recovery amount reached 13.6 million yuan. Generally speaking, the results are still very good.
In addition to the antique projects and real estate mortgaged items that Uncle De is responsible for, Wang Dingding's luxury goods business is one of the more important profit points within the pawn shop.
However, since Zhuang Rui became the manager of the pawn shop, in just two months, Wang Bingbing actually accepted thirty-two pawned luxury goods, and fifteen of them were for one week or more.
The two weeks of short-term pawning has long since passed, and it has become a perfect pawning. However, yesterday Lai Jindong came to Zhuang Rui's office and said that 12 of these 15 luxury goods were fakes, and he
Submitted the list of items to Zhuang Rui.
Zhuang Rui studied carefully and found that among these fake luxury goods, eight were jewelry and three luxury watches. Zhuang Rui and Lai Jindong went to the bank to re-appraise these eleven items yesterday afternoon and found that
They are indeed all fakes.
Wang Bingbing did not mention any of the eleven fake jewelry watches. He only reported that a laptop computer was fake. According to Wang Bingbing’s words, the labels and data he saw on the computer were the same as the invoices.
, he gave a deposit of 5,000 yuan, but who knew that one week later. After the computer became a must-have, he took a system software to install it, only to find that the computer was a computer disguised by technology, and the parameters
Has been updated to a new model.
The pawn shop spent a total of 550,000 yuan on this, which means that in the past two months, the counterfeit pawns received by the pawn shop have far exceeded the total amount of counterfeit pawns last year, and Wang must have
Why was it concealed and not reported? Lai Jindong could tell that it was fake. Could it be that he couldn't tell? This made Zhuang Rui, who is more sensitive by nature, immediately feel that there was something fishy in it.
In the past two months, to be honest, most of Zhuang Rui's energy was spent on learning the knowledge of antique appreciation with Uncle De, and bringing the precious traditional Chinese jade jewelry in stock to Li Keran.
I have read through all the authentic calligraphy and paintings by famous masters such as Sun Yuntian, and under the guidance of Uncle De, I have seen many collections of famous Zhonghai collectors. It can be said that it is an eye-opener for my understanding of antiques, no matter from a theoretical perspective.
Still in practice, compared to two months ago, it is completely different.
Qin Xuanbing and Lei Lei also came to Zhonghai once a month ago, but the time was very short, only three days. During those three days, Zhuang Rui even left work and accompanied her throughout the whole process, which made Miss Qin very satisfied. It was a pity that Liu
Chuan's absence failed to lure away the big light bulb of Lei Lei, so Zhuang Rui's idea of kissing Fangze came to nothing.
So in the past two months, Zhuang Rui really didn't pay much attention to the work of the pawn shop. Apart from making a proposal for investing in real estate, the rest of the work was left to Wang Bingding and Lai Jingdong. Now it seems
, his own concession made Wang Bei unable to restrain himself, and his behavior became more and more rampant.
Uncle De looked at the data on the paper and his face gradually became serious. After a while, he put the paper on the coffee table and tapped it unconsciously with his middle finger.
"Uncle De, in the old pawnshops, there were standing counters and sitting counters. The sitting counters were usually the top shopkeepers of the pawnshop. In larger pawnshops, there were even second and third shopkeepers. If you want to pawn this item for money,
Come, I'm afraid it will take a few people to pass it, but the appraisal of luxury goods here must be the king's final say, Uncle De, I'm afraid there's something fishy here."
Zhuang Rui's words interrupted the sound of Uncle De's fingers tapping on the coffee table. Naturally, he knew a hundred times better than Zhuang Rui about what Zhuang Rui said about the situation in the pawn shop. But what is happening in the pawn shop now makes the appraiser
They have fewer constraints.
“Cheat!!!”
The veins on Uncle De's face were bulging. He squeezed out two words from his mouth. He grabbed the paper on the coffee table with his right hand and kneaded it into a ball. Based on his experience, if he could no longer see these clues, then he would have to wait for decades.
Even if it's all in vain.
"Uncle De, please don't get excited. We have no evidence for this matter. If the truth is told, Wang Bing will definitely refuse to admit it. There is nothing we can do against him. At most, he will resign and leave. This matter needs to be studied slowly.
, let’s see how we can catch him and let him get back the money he defrauded from the pawn shop, so that our losses can be minimized.”
Uncle De's expression softened a bit when he heard this. He had been working as a pawnbroker in a pawnshop when he was more than ten years old. He valued the responsibilities of this profession the most, so he hated Wang Bingbing's behavior extremely. It was obvious that Wang Bingbing colluded with outsiders and took some
He used fake jewelry watches in exchange for pawns, and then after they turned into extremely valuable items, he then colluded with those in the auction house to sell these fake jewelry in the name of extremely valuable items in the pawn shop. In this way, the objects
They were all sold, and on the surface, the pawn shop didn't suffer any losses, but if this matter spread, the pawn shop's reputation would be ruined.
And Wang must have been able to earn two kinds of money in this process. The first was the funds from the fraud. After the two were auctioned off fake and perfect items at the auction house, he also got a lot of commission. From the current situation involved,
Judging from the funds, there are more than 500,000, which is enough for Wang Bing to take risks.
"Xiaozhuang, how do you think this matter should be handled? In the past, those who cheated on others would have been beaten to death with sticks or put in pig cages and sunk into the Huangpu River. Today's young people, well...
"
Uncle De was really a little angry. This king must actually be an appraiser introduced by one of his old friends. His work last year was pretty good, but once he got the power this year, he immediately started to engage in crooked ways. This made De
The uncle's face also looked a little confused.
Zhuang Rui smiled and said, "Uncle De, this matter is actually all my fault. If the previous system had not been changed and they had no right to contact the auction house, Wang would not have dared to do this. When this matter is settled, I will
Submit a written report to the investment company and submit resignation."
When Uncle De saw that Zhuang Rui was about to resign, he quickly said: "Xiao Zhuang, this can't be done. I still have to bear the consequences of this matter. The worst is that I won't be a consultant anymore. I will go home to take care of myself. You are still young.
It will still be beneficial to practice in this position for a few more years."
"Don't mention it, Uncle De. You have been wise all your life, so don't lose your security at this late age. It's not a big matter. I promise to handle it properly. Besides, Uncle De, you also know that several businesses in my family are...
I did a good job and called me several times to urge me to go back, but the leaders of the investment company treated me badly, so I resigned in the name of this matter."
What Zhuang Rui said is half true, and the other half is an excuse. Brother-in-law Zhao Guodong's repair shop business is very prosperous. In the past two months, excluding wages, factory and other expenses, the monthly net profit has been 89%.
Ten thousand yuan, Zhuang Rui's investment capital has basically been recovered.
Liu Chuan's mastiff garden project has been completed long ago. He and Zhou Rui went to Tibet again and brought back two male mastiffs and four female mastiffs. However, the estrus period of Tibetan mastiffs is in December every year. Now Liu Chuan is in
He started preparing for the Shanxi International Tibetan Mastiff Expo at the end of June and was preparing to make the name of Pengcheng Mastiff Garden famous. He called Zhuang Rui several times to urge him to come with him.
What really made Zhuang Rui make up his mind to quit his job at the pawn shop was a phone call from Song Jun. During the phone call, Song Jun invited Zhuang Rui to attend a jade fair held in Pingzhou in early June. Zhuang Rui still has no idea what happened to Nanjing Jade Jewelry.
The scene at the trade fair was still fresh in my memory, and I wanted to see a larger jade trading market, so I agreed on the phone.
But when Zhuang Rui calculated the time, he was going to Pingzhou, Guangdong at the beginning of June, and at the end of June he was going to Shanxi to attend the Tibetan Mastiff Expo. This meant that he couldn't stay in Zhonghai for the whole of June. Instead of taking a long leave just a few months after starting work, Zhuang Rui simply went to work.
The idea of resigning arose. Anyway, in the past two months, he had crammed in a lot of theoretical knowledge on antique appreciation, and he would not show any fear when encountering some situations.
"Then how are you going to deal with this matter?"
Uncle De knew that Zhuang Rui had long since lost his ambition and did not say anything to persuade him to stay. In the past two months, Uncle De had taught Zhuang Rui his decades of experience and experience in antiques, and the rest was
Zhuang Rui can only rely on himself to get in touch with various antiques in the future. He has nothing to teach him.
"Uncle De, please take a look at these videos first."
Zhuang Rui sat at his desk and moved the computer screen in the direction of Uncle De.
"This woman appeared fifteen times in total, eleven of which were in the reception room of the pawn shop. Uncle De, you see, she was holding a watch in her hand. In other shots, she was holding fake items.
.
The other four times were captured by the camera at the entrance of the pawn shop. Uncle De, look at this shot again. Is the man next to this woman Wang Bing? In fact, these are enough to explain the problem. Wang Bing colluded with outsiders and used counterfeit jewelry.
It is a violation of the law to defraud a pawn shop of money, and we can definitely call the police."
Zhuang Rui pointed at the images transferred from the camera on the computer and asked Uncle De to look at them one by one. He wanted to solve this problem through law. Wang Ding's behavior had constituted the crime of fraud. Although these videos cannot be used as evidence, they can be used as evidence.
The basis for calling the police is completely acceptable.
"Call the police?" Uncle De thought for a while and then slowly shook his head.
