Chapter 432 Yonghe Teahouse

Qin Fei grabbed the young man's arm and left Huayuzhai.

Taihang Building has too many acquaintances. Adhering to the concept of humane law enforcement, Chen Yi did not let Qin Fei handcuff him. Maybe the other party still has a chance to probate. By then, no one except his family will know that he almost went to prison.

The crime is relatively minor and has good repentance performance, so probation can be applied, not to mention that it is an attempted fraud.

It depends on whether the young man will confess other things after entering the interrogation room of the branch.

"Seeing is believing, right, Mr. Wu?" Chen Yi didn't take it seriously and continued to chat with Wu Muyang.

Wu Muyang smiled bitterly: "Officer Chen is really not simple. Did you know what he wanted to do from the moment he walked in?"

Chen Yi: "This matter is wrong from the root. Although I am an outsider, I never believe that there is a big bargain to be picked up in Taihang Building. Moreover, you also said that the old man with the palm fan is very smart and has been in Taihang Building for more than ten years. It is impossible to pick up a big bargain from him."

Wu Muyang: "He made a very serious mistake. Officer Chen did not come to buy antiques at all. With this premise, no matter how clever the deception is, it will not work."

Chen Yi smiled: "Is that old man... an accomplice?"

He will not ignore this matter.

Wu Muyang answered very straightforwardly: "No, but the genuine one should be his."

Chen Yi: "Oh?"

Wu Muyang said: "The people who often hang out in Taihang Building have very complicated relationships. It's impossible to say that they have no relationship, and it's not that close either. This requires talking about ways to make money, such as commissions and kickbacks."

Chen Yi understood: "The young man just now was not the old man's agent, but everyone's agent?"

Wu Muyang nodded: "Yes, you can say that if you spend money to buy that bowl, he can get 5 points."

Chen Yi: "Two thousand five, not a small amount."

It's just a few words to act a scene. It won't take a few minutes to get a 5-point commission. This is just one stall of the old man with the palm fan.

How much can you get in a day?

How much can you get in a year?

Wu Muyang: "It's not easy to make money. Nowadays, not many people are willing to pay high prices to buy goods from scattered stalls."

Chen Yi: "This job is not something that ordinary people can do."

Wu Muyang: "Yes."

Chen Yi: "What I mean is that every industry has its own rules, every industry excludes outsiders, and every industry has... integrated organizations."

Acting is a very easy job, and there are many opportunities to make money. Who doesn't want to get involved? But it's not so easy to get in.

Just like street stalls, newcomers will always be suppressed or even driven away, including beggars, scalpers, etc.

You go to other people's territory to beg and sell tickets. Do others want it? That's real profit.

People and animals have a sense of "territorial sovereignty", and those who don't follow the rules will not end up well.

This is an unspoken rule. In the past, you needed to pay homage to the boss to do business, and it is still the same now.

Wu Muyang sighed: "Officer Chen is right, it is true, you want to investigate them? Goodbye?"

Chen Yi touched his chin, his eyes thoughtful: "Investigation is unnecessary, existence is reasonable, I will not go too far in correcting the people's livelihood in Jiangcheng."

Wu Muyang breathed a sigh of relief.

"But..." Chen Yi changed his tone and seemed to be talking to himself, "There are some things that the police can't prevent, but others can. I really came to the right place today. I said that it is always right to walk around and see more."

Wu Muyang was surprised: "Huh?"

Chen Yi changed the subject: "Although the major antique markets are now under supervision, the weight of the Tourism Bureau and the Cultural Bureau is definitely not enough, and they dare not intervene too harshly. The real decision still comes from the people."

Wu Muyang's face changed slightly.

He found that this young man was really a bit weird. He obviously didn't know anything at the beginning, but how come he suddenly seemed to know everything while chatting?

The more Chen Yi thought about it, the more he felt that it could be done. At least he could get to know them, so he asked: "Who has the final say in Taihang Tower?"

This is not a secret, Wu Muyang replied: "Chang Rong."

Chen Yi: "Does he have the final say in the five major antique markets?"

Wu Muyang: "That's not the case. Each antique market has an independent... uh, management personnel, five people."

Chen Yi: "What about the five people above them?"

Wu Muyang shook his head: "I don't know, there shouldn't be any?"

Chen Yi smiled: "Do you believe it?"

Jiangcheng has been developing for so many years, and he doesn't believe that the five major antique markets are independent of each other.

Mutual independence in the same industry means competition, and conflicts will definitely occur over time. The final result must be integration to achieve a win-win balance.

This is what the insiders want to see, and what the official departments want to see.

The person who can integrate the five major antique markets is definitely not simple. To put it bluntly, he is a guy standing at the top of the antique industry in Jiangcheng.

If he can become friends with the other party, the crime rate in Jiangcheng should be greatly reduced.

As the leader of the research team, I came to Jiangcheng to find and solve problems. It is my duty to reduce the crime rate. Many victims of fraud cases have lost their life savings.

Wu Muyang said: "You want to say whether you believe it or not... Of course I don't believe it, but I can't get in touch with people of that level, and I have never heard of it. In Taihang Building, Chang Rong is the boss."

Chen Yi: "Does the term boss still exist in the inland? You have watched too many movies. Is he engaged in gray industry?"

The topic is a bit sensitive, Wu Muyang is very secretive: "I still have to stay in Taihang Building, please forgive me."

Chen Yi smiled: "That's not the case, Mr. Wu, you still have some qualifications in Taihang Tower."

Wu Muyang: "Qualifications are used to fool people at the bottom, Officer Chen. I have a lower position than you but much seniority. Do I need to salute you when I see you? Do you feel panic when you make a mistake?"

Chen Yi nodded: "An appropriate metaphor."

Qualifications cannot improve status, real power can.

Zheng Congliang from Suicheng has been a policeman for more than 20 years. He has participated in solving so many cases and made a lot of achievements. His seniority is high enough and it is useless.

When you see yourself, you still have to lower your posture and call Captain Chen.

Wu Muyang felt thirsty, drank two cups of tea in a row, and said, "Officer Chen, why do you feel that every time you come to me, nothing good will happen? My old bones can't stand the test."

Chen Yi smiled and said: "The conscience of heaven and earth is really just wandering around. There is no case to be investigated. How could you, Taixinglou, be so ignorant that you deceived me?"

Wu Muyang was speechless and scolded the young man in his heart. Can he be more discerning?

Now it's better, Officer Chen seems to be in trouble.

"Where is Chang Rong usually? Is he in Taihang Building?" Chen Yi asked, "Don't worry, Mr. Wu, I won't do anything and won't cause you any trouble. If anything happens, just call me."

Wu Muyang said nonchalantly: "It's okay, I just don't want anything big to happen to Taihang Tower. He is at the Yonghe Tea House in Taihang Tower."

Chen Yi: "If you speak more slowly, I thought it was Yonghe Doujiu. The name is a bit lame. Why do you think opening a teahouse in Antique Street is a place for trading?"

Wu Muyang smiled: "It's almost the same. This teahouse is not that teahouse. It's just a name. It's actually an antique shop."

Chen Yi: "The nature is the same as that of Hua Yuzhai?"

Wu Muyang: "It's not exactly the same. Yonghe Teahouse is much better than my Huayuzhai. It can be authenticated, auctioned, and can also provide guarantee for both parties in free transactions, provided there is a fee."

Chen Yi: "What is Chang Rong's status in Taihang Tower?"

Wu Muyang: "Very high. He can take care of any disputes. He can solve things that the police can't solve."

Chen Yi nodded. This is normal. Police law enforcement has limitations. County magistrates are not as good as current managers. These bosses in Taihang Building may not be afraid of the police, but they are definitely afraid of Chang Rong.

As long as you don't break the law, the police can't do anything to you, but Chang Rong can really make you feel uncomfortable or even get out.

"Can I eat?" Chen Yida said.

Wu Muyang: "Huh?"

Chen Yi chuckled: "Let's go to Yonghe Teahouse for lunch."

Wu Muyang hesitated: "It seems... no, do you really want to go find Chang Rong?"

Chen Yi: "You're a local snake. It's okay to meet him when you have nothing to do. What is his public identity?"

Wu Muyang said: "He is a member of Jiangcheng Art Investment Club, and many shops in Taihang Building belong to him."

Chen Yi exclaimed: "Why didn't you think about getting to know each other when we investigated the case last time? It was a mistake, otherwise we might have been able to investigate faster."

He just said casually that people like Chang Rong would hide as far away as possible when cooperating with the police, not to mention that what was being investigated was still their own territory, which would easily lower their prestige.

Wu Muyang reminded: "Actually, I don't recommend it. They don't like to deal with the police."

Chen Yi smiled: "Not necessarily, I am so kind, maybe he will like me."

Wu Muyang: "..."

Saying goodbye to Wu Muyang, Chen Yi and the two walked out of Huayuzhai. Qin Fei estimated that it would take about an hour to go back and forth.

Not far away, the old man with a cattail leaf fan in front of the stall was looking here, with a look of surprise on his face.

Qin Fei needs to pass there when he takes the young man to leave Taihang Tower, and the other party will definitely see it.

Chen Yi walked over.

"Boss, are you still thinking about your bowl?"

The old man Pu Shan hesitated for a moment and said, "What...do you do?"

Chen Yi: "Interpol."

The old man Pu Shan's face froze and he said sarcastically: "So that's it, this matter has nothing to do with me."

Chen Yi: "We all know very well that it is impossible for you to say that there is no relationship at all. You still have to have a certain bottom line to make money. It is not good to go in if you are old. Okay, let's not talk about it. You can wait to get that bowl from the branch." Bar."

The old man Pu Shan stared silently at Chen Yi's retreating figure and sighed.

…

At 11:30 in the morning, a few people met near Huayuzhai. Qin Fei had come back. Everything went well. The boy didn't take any chances and followed Qin Fei into the branch very depressed.

The attitude is pretty good, and if there are no other big things, I think it can really get a reprieve.

That's 800,000 yuan. If it were someone else's, it might be all their property. No one can predict the consequences. What if you commit suicide out of your mind?

The harm of fraud goes beyond just losing money.

"So arrogant?"

Zhuge Cong and the others did not expect that Chen Yi actually encountered a scam. It cannot be said to be a coincidence. This is a matter of probability. It means that there are many similar behaviors in Taihang Tower secretly. If you count the other four antique markets, it is multiplied by five.

No wonder there are so many fraud cases in Jiangcheng, and I don’t know how many of them don’t call the police.

"Come on, let's go have a cup of tea."

Chen Yi led the research team to continue walking, this time with a clear goal, and soon stood at the door of Yonghe Tea House.

There were very few people hanging around, and even the stalls were much empty.

Entering the store, a beautiful waiter wearing a cheongsam immediately came up to her and said, "Hello."

Chen Yi got straight to the point: "Is Boss Chang here?"

The waitress was not surprised. It seemed that people often came to visit. She answered politely: "Yes, who are you?"

Chen Yi: "Just say that Chen Yi from Yangcheng is visiting. If he doesn't know him, just say that the former head of the special task force is visiting."

The waitress was skilled in facial expression management and kept smiling: "Okay, please sit down and wait."

Chen Yi and his friends found two tables and sat down. The tea arrived quickly. Since they didn't ask what kind of tea they wanted, it should be free.

Chang Rong went downstairs very quickly. When he heard the footsteps, Chen Yi looked over and saw a middle-aged man wearing a buttoned suit. At first glance, he looked like a Tai Chi practitioner.

It seems that antique dealers like to wear this kind of clothes? It is very recognizable and comfortable.

Chang Rong pushed the glasses on his nose and walked over slowly.

Chen Yi specially reserved a seat for the other party, and Chang Rong went forward to sit down.

"Captain Chen? I have seen him in the photo." Chang Rong picked up the upside-down teacup, poured himself a cup of tea, and then added some for Chen Yi.

Chen Yi smiled: "Hello, Mr. Chang."

Chang Rong: "Why did Captain Chen suddenly come to Jiangcheng?"

Chen Yi: "Work, research."

"Oh..." Chang Rong glanced at the six people around him, "You brought so many police officers to Yonghe, you shouldn't come to chat, right? I don't think I have offended Captain Chen?"

He spoke with a strong sense of the underworld, a bit like Meng Yi in Yangcheng. If he pushed it back 10 or 20 years, he would have experienced "bloody storms".

Chen Yi smiled and said, "It's a misunderstanding. I was just passing by and chatting. How can I not get to know Mr. Chang when I come to Taihang Tower?"

Chang Rong naturally didn't believe it: "If it's just chatting... Captain Chen is making a big fuss."

Chen Yi: "I just brought them out to see the world. It's not intentional. Should I let them go out first?"

Chang Rong: "No, not really. Captain Chen, just speak frankly."

Chen Yi: "Who has the final say on the five major antique markets?"

Hearing this, Chang Rong's eyes narrowed slightly: "What does Captain Chen mean? The five major antique markets have no owners. It's the era now. They are under the jurisdiction of the Cultural Bureau and the Tourism Bureau."

Chen Yi: "It seems that Mr. Chang didn't understand what I meant. All walks of life have their own rules. Who set the rules of the Jiangcheng antique industry?"

Chang Rong: "Of course it is the law. It is most important to abide by the law."

Chen Yi was silent for a while, and said: "Mr. Chang, I just want to make friends, there is no need to be so hostile to me. It is easy for this person to find out if he wants to, but I don't want to use this method."

Chang Rong's face remained unchanged: "I really don't understand what Captain Chen means. The antique business in Jiangcheng is under state control. How can we make rules? You think too much."

Chen Yi was helpless: "Okay, in this case, I can only notify the Municipal Bureau, the Branch Bureau, and the District Police Station to jointly rectify Taihang Building. I hope Mr. Chang can fully cooperate at that time."

Chang Rong was shocked: "What does Captain Chen mean?"

Chen Yi: "Literally, I almost got cheated of 800,000 just now."

Chang Rong frowned deeply. The other party would not make up such a thing, and the possibility of it happening is indeed not small. He knows very well what kind of people in Taihang Building are.

Is this considered venting personal anger?

It is said to be rectified. In a few months, Taihang Building is likely to go from prosperity to decline, and from being crowded to desolate and deserted.

Which bastard did it?
