Chapter 1046: Qi Kaiqun, the Smart One

Shi Lei slightly closed his eyes. He knew that Qi Kaiqun's words were half true and half false. He could not believe them completely, but he could not disbelieve them either.

"Mr. Qi, please don't lie to me. You should know that once I feel that I have been deceived, your life may be in danger at any time."

Qi Kaiqun smiled bitterly and said, "How dare I lie to you? Let's meet tomorrow. I will show you what I got. I believe your friend also saw that the bag I carried with me after I succeeded was very small. If it was really 30 million euros in cash, it would be impossible for such a small bag to hold it. However, 100 million is already a considerable gain for me. I also did what you asked. If you don't believe it, I can tell you where Mo Bingzhong hides the antiques, and you can send someone to see it in person."

Shi Lei smiled and said, "I still want to believe Mr. Qi. So, see you tomorrow?"

Qi Kaiqun agreed, and Shi Lei hung up the phone.

Afterwards, Shi Lei called Meng Qi again and said, "Meng Qi, I may have to work hard for you tonight. Please keep an eye on Qi Kaiqun and don't let him slip away."

Meng Qi said, "Mr. Shi is too polite. It's my job. It's not a big deal."

Shi Lei had a lot of questions in his mind, but he couldn't get any answers at this moment. He could only go back to the living room and chat with Kong Yuebai over boiled water.

Qi Kaiqun, on the other hand, searched on the computer for a long time, but couldn't find much useful information. He even took out the papers again and studied them carefully for a long time, confirming that they were the works of twelve famous calligraphers, but he couldn't believe that these calligraphy works could be worth hundreds of millions.

The papers were not small, and Qi Kaiqun knew that the works of famous calligraphers and painters were all priced according to the area.

However, the words on these papers were basically concentrated in the center of the paper, except for a seal in the lower right corner.

This can't be calculated according to the area of ​​the whole paper anyway.

Moreover, according to Qi Kaiqun's understanding after searching online, even the works of these famous calligraphers, a complete calligraphy, the auction price is only a few tens of thousands at most, and millions at the lowest. The contents on these papers obviously cannot constitute a complete calligraphy work. Qi Kaiqun estimated that the price of each of these papers would hardly exceed one million. Then, more than 30 pieces added together would only be 30 or 40 million, which is far from the 30 million euros Shi Lei said.

Fortunately, those jades are worth at least tens of millions, or even hundreds of millions. Even if these papers are not so valuable, he has more than 100 million in cash. As he said to Shi Lei, he can also be satisfied.

Back in the bedroom, Qi Kaiqun fell asleep with a lot on his mind.

After waking up the next day, Qi Kaiqun said hello to his wife and went out.

Putting on the hat again, Qi Kaiqun returned to the inn.

From the reaction of the innkeeper, Qi Kaiqun judged that he did not find anything, but asked him why he came down from upstairs yesterday. He said that he was bored at the time and just strolled around the inn.

Then the man asked him why he went out for the night. He said that his friend was too enthusiastic and had arranged a room for him in another inn. It was already very late, so he simply did not come back to avoid waking him up and asking him to open the door.

After a few pleasantries and checking out, Qi Kaiqun felt much more at ease. At least, everything was still within the controllable range. Unless it was extremely coincidental, Mo Bingzhong should not find that his wealth had almost been emptied by Qi Kaiqun in the past few days.

After checking out, Qi Kaiqun left the inn and went to a jade trading place to roughly confirm the price of the jade bracelets in his hand.

Sure enough, the total value should be more than 100 million. Qi Kaiqun seemed to have seen his carefree life abroad, and his heart was beating wildly. Even if the thirty-six pieces of paper were not worth much, he was already satisfied.

The rest was how to deal with Shi Lei and let him arrange for himself to leave China smoothly.

Meng Qi had been following Qi Kaiqun. When he saw him enter a distribution center for trading jade and other items, he immediately reported to Shi Lei.

He was among the crowd, and saw Qi Kaiqun walking out of a shop and then into another shop, so he followed him in.

Taking out a small notebook and shaking it in front of the shop owner, Meng Qi lowered his voice and said, "Friend, I'm from the Provincial Public Security Department, and I'm tracking a batch of stolen goods. That man just now, Qi Kaiqun, what does he want from you?"

The shop owner was stunned, and looked at Meng Qi with some suspicion, not quite believing what he said.

Meng Qi added: "The Mo family has been in turmoil recently. You probably heard about the Chuncheng incident, right? Now someone from above wants to punish their family because they took something they shouldn't have. You can keep silent, but the next time we meet, it may not be in your store. I can ask the local police to ask you to cooperate with the investigation at any time. It's just that I'm in the evidence collection stage now, and I don't want to alarm the Mo family so early. The things Qi Kaiqun just asked you to look at are only a small part of that batch. I hope you can cooperate with our work."

People have the instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm, and also have the nature of not wanting to cause trouble. The man no longer hesitated and told Meng Qi directly what Qi Kaiqun asked him to look at.

"The water head is really good, glass-type, emerald green, emerald green, I have been in this business for 20 years, to be honest, I have never seen such perfect jade. Just that pair of bracelets, at least 20 or 30 million."

After getting a general understanding, Meng Qi patted the boss on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your cooperation, but you'd better forget about this matter for the time being. No matter who asks, don't tell anyone. I don't want to alert the enemy, do you understand? Don't brag about the pair of bracelets."

The man nodded hurriedly and promised not to tell anyone. Meng Qi left with satisfaction.

Qi Kaiqun left the second store again, and Meng Qi naturally walked in again.

Using the same method, the boss soon told all the truth, and the process was exactly the same as the previous store.

Meng Qi frowned and thought that Qi Kaiqun was really careless. He took the batch of bracelets and came to ask for the price. It seems very smart. Each store only shows a pair of bracelets, but as long as you are careful, you will find that he has many pairs of bracelets.

Entering the third store, it was still the same. Meng Qi always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong.

The fourth store Qi Kaiqun walked into was not a jade store, but a store that sold antiques and cultural relics.

Meng Qi looked at Qi Kaiqun from a distance and saw that Qi Kaiqun did not take anything out. He just drank tea with the boss and chatted for a while, then got up and left.

After Qi Kaiqun left, Meng Qi also walked into the store. He pretended to chat with the boss: "The person who just left seems to be Mr. Qi, the son-in-law of the Mo family, right?"

"Who else could it be if not him? I don't know what the hell, but he suddenly cares about calligraphy and painting again. I thought I could do a business, but I didn't expect that he tricked me into making a pot of good tea, and then patted his butt and left after drinking it."

"Mr. Qi is also a cultured person. Isn't it normal to care about calligraphy and painting?"

"Normal shit, what does he know about calligraphy and painting? He came to inquire about the manuscripts of the twelve masters!"

Meng Qi was slightly stunned. The manuscripts of the twelve masters, isn't this what Shi Lei asked to check?
