Chapter 1188: Mortgage

The valuable gifts handed in by Jiuxu are usually kept in a special warehouse for management and maintenance, and are not used for other purposes.

At the beginning, there were not many gifts received. As time went by, more and more things were collected, so a special place had to be set up.

The National Gift Art Museum not only collects the gifts handed in by Jiuxu, but also regularly displays some national gifts with humanistic value and profound meaning.

Cheng Zhe is the person in charge there.

He has a special status, and many things were put into the warehouse by Cheng Yunqiao in the past. No one raised any objections to him being the person in charge.

Cheng Zhe has a high level of appreciation since he was a child.

For example, one year Siam was interested in the second seat Deng Zhi and gave her a specimen of a peacock with its tail spread out.

It looks very ordinary, but in fact, each peacock feather is made of gold, and the exquisite wire drawing process is inlaid with a whole piece of obsidian and emerald.

Hundreds of peacock feathers are fan-shaped, and they look lifelike from a distance, just like the real thing.

No one else noticed that there was a love letter stuffed in the peacock's belly, only Cheng Zhe saw it.

However, after reading the love letter, he melted the gold plate with the words written on it.

He is really sick. Wouldn't it be better to put so many gold and gems in bulk? They have to stick them on a peacock. It is too difficult to sell.

Cheng Zhe's favorite gift is the big diamond handed in by the fourth seat.

The technology of artificial diamonds is quite mature, but there are still many rich people who uphold the idea of ​​eternal transmission and regard natural diamonds as king.

High-quality natural diamonds put on the international market will not worry about lack of buyers.

Really! Apart from those women, Cheng Zhe's favorite person is Tong Xiangyuan.

God of Wealth!

Every time he comes back from a mission, he hands in a big diamond. Every time he can sell it for a good price!

It's okay to make a fake one. As long as it is not identified by experts, it is impossible to tell that the things have been replaced.

At the beginning, Cheng Zhe was still conscientious. Every day, he was like a king, inspecting his treasures in the territory, not to mention how satisfied he was.

After a long time, he suddenly felt boring.

So many gifts, which can only be seen but not touched, it is better to exchange them for money than to leave them in the warehouse and collect dust!

He sneaked around and swapped a small diamond. In order to avoid being discovered, he cut it into two pieces and sold them separately, and finally sold them for only more than one million.

However, the substitution has never been discovered. After tasting the sweetness, he became more and more daring.

Over the years, all the precious gems that Tong Xiangyuan brought back from Africa were replaced by artificial stones by Cheng Zhe, without exception.

He made at least several hundred million yuan in vain, bought houses and cars, played everywhere, and purchased several mansions in Shangjing City and Shangdong City for multiple lovers to live in.

Money comes easily, but it also goes away quickly.

Don't look at the mansion as comfortable, but if you have to provide for four at the same time, the property fee alone is a huge expense every month.

In order to maintain a luxurious life, you have to find a way to make money.

In the past few months, the fourth seat has not been on an international mission, and Cheng Zhe has been living off his savings every day.

He didn't dare to touch the gifts that were not easy to replace (such as the peacock for the second seat).

The easy ones were basically all done, what should he do?

When he was worried, the red coral handed in by Qi Xiu was like a timely help, which made Cheng Zhe overjoyed.

Good, good!

It's so rare, the color is so bright, and the shape is beautiful. I knew at first glance that it would definitely sell for a good price.

I quickly contacted the seller and waited for the money.

However, he never expected that this red coral was given to Qi Xiu by Zhong Yuan for wine.

Lao Liu didn't want to at first, but then he suddenly figured it out and secretly sent his assistant to take the coral back.

It would be fine if he didn't take it, but when he took it, he found that the coral was actually a fake made of dyed cow bones.

The things were made very delicately, and if you don't look carefully, you really can't see the splicing marks.

Soaked in medicinal wine, it finally showed its true form.

What a joke?

Would Yuanyuan give such a thing?

There is no doubt that the real thing was replaced.

Qi Xiu figured out the key point at once, and then sent someone to secretly investigate other things in the warehouse, and his heart sank.

This substitution is not a one-day or two-day thing, it seems to have been done a long time ago.

Things like diamonds are of no use to Jiuxu, but the people of the Cheng family actually did sneaky things for money, which is really heartbreaking.

They have fallen to the point of relying on such despicable means to maintain superficial pride and self-esteem.

Qi Xiu originally planned to turn a blind eye, but now that Zhong Yuan wants to deal with the Cheng family and wants the Xu crystal in their hands, it is just the right opportunity to make trouble.

The Xu Administration Bureau got the clues provided by Qi Xiu and arrested Cheng Zhe.

In the luxury store, Cheng Zhe's face was pale, looking at the team of investigators in black uniforms, his body trembled slightly, and he was scared to death!

It's over, I've really been discovered!

That's not right!

Why are people from the Xu Administration Bureau arresting me?

I know, ordinary public security can't handle matters involving Jiuxu...

No! I have to call Mr. Ye and ask him to plead for me!

The red coral has not been sold yet, I can just take it back!

Cheng Zhe has a good relationship with the seventh seat, and they often send tea to keep in touch.

In Ye Yining's eyes, Cheng Zhe is indeed one of the few pragmatic people in the Cheng family.

Even if the art gallery he is responsible for operating has been losing money for many years and relies on subsidies to maintain operations; but if Cheng Zhe makes an excuse that he sold a few diamonds in order to keep the art gallery going, Ye Yining's personality will definitely think it is not a big deal.

So, Cheng Zhe panicked for a while, but soon calmed down and said to the investigator, "I want to make a phone call."

The investigator said, "Okay. You have to make the call in front of us."

The girl in the sling was slapped, her face was burning and hurting, and she was at a loss at first. Seeing that Cheng Zhe was not panicking at all, she couldn't help but feel confident. She was even more arrogant than Cheng Zhe, and said, "Which unit do you belong to? I want evidence to arrest you." ! Bring out the evidence!”

No one paid any attention to her.

The manager hurriedly picked up the handbag that fell on the ground, and was heartbroken to find that there was an obvious crease on the bag.

Originally, the registration information could be formatted and the tags re-hanged for secondary sale. When repairs are needed, there is nothing you can do.

This man and woman must pay the bill!

The manager hurriedly said to the people from the market management bureau, "Police officer, this gentleman and lady spent a total of 630,000 yuan in our store, and they must pay it off in one lump sum."

Ignorant people are fearless. The manager is not afraid of the Market Management Bureau at all. He has the attitude of not letting Cheng Zhe leave unless he pays the bill.

One of the investigators frowned and said, "Can't I return it?"

The manager pointed to the creases on the bag and said seriously, "If the product is damaged due to the customer, we will not accept returns.

Each customer's information will be entered into a one-to-one tag Jingyuan. If it is sold for more than fifteen minutes, it cannot be canceled and returns will not be accepted. "

"Please understand that what we sell is not just bags, but works of art! Each piece is unique!"

"…………"

Anyway, you have the final say, right?

The investigator from the Market Management Bureau was at a loss and said to Cheng Zhe, "You pay the money first."

Cheng Zhe said angrily, "My card has been frozen by you! You want me to pay? Where did I get the money?"

If he was allowed to make phone calls, there would definitely be room for maneuver, and he would feel confident again.

The manager was in a hurry and said, "Sir, you can first pledge an item of equal value to us."

Cheng Zhe took out the car keys bitterly.

His car: Audi Horch Genesis Edition, priced at 2.3 million, enough to be worth the price of a bag.

The manager smiled politely and said, "Sorry, the car doesn't work. If you don't come back to check out, we can't do anything to your car."

He looked at Cheng Zhe's wrist, but was disappointed to find that it was wearing an old-fashioned mechanical watch, which was worthless.

Cheng Zhe's expression was a little distorted.

It’s all the fault of the Ruins Management Bureau! What's the big deal about just throwing a few diamonds into the Pacific Ocean today?

In full view of everyone, he took off one of his leather shoes, pulled open the insole, took out the stuff inside, and said viciously, "I'll use this as collateral!"

It was dark, with a layer of blackout tape wrapped around it, and gave off a sour smell!
