"Tian Hongwen's case?!" Qin Fen frowned and asked, "Is there some problem between Luo Baoji and Tian Hongwen?!"
When Qin Fen asked, Xu Hongming and Tao Boru were immediately stunned. It seemed that Qin Fen had already guessed these things, so Xu Hongming hesitated for a moment and said directly without any cover-up: "We have been busy in the association during this time.
I found that there were many cultural relics that seemed to be missing, and some cultural relics were not recorded in the association and then disappeared."
"These cultural relics were all Tian Hongwen was responsible for before, right?!" Qin Fen asked again.
"Yes, now Tian Hongwen insists that he has not used the association's items privately, but after investigation, several items of the association's artifacts have appeared in the external market, and they were leaked from Luobaoji!" Xu Hongming said as he spoke
, his face became extremely solemn.
If this matter is confirmed, not only Tian Hongwen is finished, but also Xu Hongming will be jointly and severally responsible. At least due to poor supervision, this president is incompetent, so the one who feels the most uncomfortable right now is undoubtedly Xu Hongming.
"But do you have any evidence in your hands now?!"
"Currently Tian Hongwen has not explained anything, but the results of the undercover investigation by the people above showed that Luo Baoji seems to have some connection with Tian Hongwen, especially the relationship between Tian Hongyi and Tian Hongwen, so this clue is particularly important, but today
We took a brief look at Luobaoji and found that none of the items displayed outside were from the association."
"Of course, these things must have been placed in a very secret and safe place by Luo Cheng. How dare you put them outside so blatantly!" Qin Fen nodded and said.
"So, our next focus is Luo Baoji. Today we are giving him a wake-up call. If he has evil intentions, he will definitely take action!" Xu Hongming said again.
"Well, Mr. Xu, you can just follow up on this matter. When the time comes, just tell me what you need me to do." Qin Fen finally nodded and said.
The next few people chatted for a while, and Qin Fen took out Uncle Qinghe's Tianhuang seal and asked three people to palm it. At the same time, he told Zheng Boyuan that Zheng Qian had picked it up, which made Zheng Boyuan very excited.
More than an hour later, Zheng Qian came back from outside and told Qin Fen that Feng Xueyuan and Xishan Tu had been safely sent to the museum. Qin Fen felt relieved. At the same time, Xu Hongming and Tao Boru stood up to leave.
Qin Fen originally wanted to go back, but Zheng Qian said that he would treat him to dinner that night. After all, it was his first time to pick up a leak, so he was very excited and wanted to thank Qin Fen.
Seeing that the hospitality was hard to resist, Qin Fen stayed in Yungu Hall.
"Qin Fen, there is a shop not far ahead that is for sale. Don't you want to move Zhengde Zhai to the capital?! Then why don't we go over and take a look?!" Zheng Boyuan and Qin Fen suddenly said after drinking a pot of tea.
"Oh, let's go over and take a look. To be honest, I've been so busy these days that I've forgotten about this matter." Qin Fen said with a wry smile.
The transferred shop was only three hundred meters away from Yun Gutang. When the two of them arrived at the shop, they found that the door was locked. Qin Fen frowned and took a look through the glass. He found that the size of the shop was huge.
It's not too small, probably more than 100 square meters. Although he still thinks it's a bit small, he can only make a transition for the time being and wait until a suitable store becomes available in the future.
"Don't worry, I know the owner of this place. I'll call him and ask him to come back!"
Zheng Boyuan saw the somewhat disappointed expression on Qin Fen's face, and smiled at Qin Fen and said.
"Old Zhao, I brought a customer here who wants to buy your shop. Come back as soon as possible!"
Zheng Boyuan dialed the phone, spoke into the phone, then hung up the phone and said to Qin Fen: "The shop owner will be here soon!"
Sure enough, ten minutes later, a fat old man in his fifties was seen running over from a distance, panting.
"Old Zhao, if you don't stay in the store, what are you doing?!" Seeing the fat man running over sweating profusely, Zheng Boyuan asked with a smile.
"Hey, don't mention it, it's still a matter of my hometown. I plan to go back in a few days!" Old Zhao glanced at Qin Fen and said.
"It seems that you are really anxious. Let me introduce to you. This is Qin Fen, who happens to want to open a shop here!"
"Well, hello, Mr. Zhao!" Qin Fen chuckled and shook hands with the other party.
"Well, you are young and promising, okay, let's go in and talk, go in and talk!"
Old Zhao smiled, hurriedly took out the key from his pocket, and opened the store door.
After entering the store, Qin Fen vaguely felt that there was a faint soul in the lobby. Qin Fen glanced at it casually and saw that the treasure shelves were full of things. However, in Qin Fen's view, the things here were...
None of it caught the eye.
Qin Fen knew that most of the rest were imitations, and the genuine ones might have been moved away long ago.
"The area of this lobby is one hundred square meters, and the inner hall is more than fifty square meters. It is enough to receive a guest or something." Fatty old Zhao saw the calm expression on Qin Fen's face and took the initiative to introduce it.
"Yes, the structures of the shops on this whole street are the same, so there is no problem!" Zheng Boyuan nodded after taking a look at the shops.
"Mr. Zhao, do you own this shop or rent it?!"
"My own! I have a real estate certificate!" Lao Zhao said hurriedly.
"Oh, let's talk about the price then! If it's suitable, I'll buy it today." Qin Fen said immediately after looking at the store.
Right now, Qin Fen must arrange these things as soon as possible. He is worried that if he misses it, he will not know what to expect.
"Haha, it seems that Mr. Qin is also a happy person. Let's do this. This area is 150 square meters in total. I don't want more. One square meter is 100,000 yuan. You can give me 15 million!"
Old Zhao lowered his head and considered it, then smiled directly at Qin Fen.
"Haha, Lao Zhao, you are really asking for it. You really dare to ask for fifteen million!" Zheng Boyuan said in surprise before Qin Fen could say anything.
"Oh, Lao Zheng, you stay in the shop all day, don't you know the current housing prices?! Not to mention the shops here, even the shops facing the street, the rent is 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a month. To be honest, if not
I'm anxious to go back to my hometown. I won't sell this store even if it's a big deal. Let alone this price, even if it's higher, I won't worry about selling it. It's just for your sake, Lao Zheng, that I'm giving you such a discount.
of!"
Lao Zhao said directly to Zheng Boyuan.
Qin Fen didn't speak, with a faint smile on his face. He knew the housing prices here. To be honest, the prices were not too high, and of course they were not cheap either.
However, Qin Fen knew that what Lao Zhao was telling the truth was not true, because he had already seen something strange about him.
"Haha, Mr. Zhao, I am also a happy person. I can accept this price, but you still have to move these treasures as soon as possible. Let's sign the contract as soon as possible!"
Hearing that Qin Fen agreed without counter-offering, Zheng Boyuan was a little puzzled, but seeing the smile on Qin Fen's face, he didn't know what to say.
"That's right, I just talked about the price of the shop, and here are these things. If I want to sell the shop, these things must be sold together with the shop. I don't plan to do this business anymore, so I keep these things.
It's useless. I made an estimate and found that the things here are worth at least more than 8 million, which adds up to a total of 23 million! If you can settle it, let's sign the contract now and transfer the ownership now!"
Mr. Zhao was very happy, seeing that Qin Fen was a man who was not short of money, so he said again immediately.
"Old Zhao, you are wrong. Even if the price of your shop is reasonable, how can these things of yours be worth eight million? I think it is better to find someone to appraise them and then estimate them according to the market price!"
As soon as these words came out, Old Zhao's fat face immediately became unhappy, and he said coldly: "Old Zheng, what are you doing?! Are you sincere?!"
"How can I be sincere? I just saw that you and I have a good relationship, so I introduced Qin Fen to you. You two are my friends. What you are doing is somewhat unreal!" Zheng Boyuan was also a little unhappy.
arrive.
"Then you decide for yourself. If you don't want to buy it, you can just look around. I don't have to worry about selling it!" Lao Zhao said angrily at the moment.
Seeing that both of them were unhappy, Qin Fen smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying: "You two must not let this matter hurt your harmony." Qin Fen tried to persuade him, then looked at the indifferent old Zhao and said: "Zhao
Lao, I know very well what you are thinking. To be honest, I am not short of money, but my money did not come from the strong wind. And if you don’t want the things here, of course I can take over, but we still want it.
Appraisal, you can’t just say how much it is, right?!”
Hearing Qin Fen's words, Old Zhao was stunned, and immediately said: "Identification is also possible, but I'm afraid it will have to wait. After all, there are so many things, and identification is time-consuming and laborious!"
"Haha, that's no need. I just took a quick look and got an idea." After Qin Fen said that, he walked directly towards Duobao Pavilion. He saw that on the first row of shelves, basically everything was on display.
The porcelain seems to be products from famous kilns, but Qin Fen can tell from the trace of soul on it that these are basically modern imitations, and the oldest ones are just imitations from the Republic of China, so the prices have basically reached
It's in his heart.
Next are some calligraphy and paintings, again, all modern copy works.
To put it bluntly, none of the remaining jade pendants and ornaments are of the highest quality. Of course, they are all genuine, but the origins are different, and there is not even a piece of Hetian jade.
This made Qin Fen have to admire Lao Zhao's discernment, but there was nothing real left.
Lao Zhao stood aside with Zheng Boyuan from the beginning to the end, and the two just looked at each other. Qin Fen inspected and appraised casually. There was nothing strange about Zheng Boyuan, but Lao Zhao had a look of astonishment on his face and couldn't help but ask: "This
