Chapter 17 Chen Ze's Request

After returning, Jiang Li continued to work, greeted the guests when there were people, and chatted with Liu Zimin when there was no one.

Today the two of them talked the most about Chen Ze, the president of Hongjiang Antiques Association.

Jiang Li didn't know much about it, but Liu Zimin still had some connections with Chen Ze.

"Chairman Chen is a good manager."

This is the evaluation given by Liu Zimin.

From what Liu Zimin said, Jiang Li also probably knew that before Chen Ze became the president of the Hongjiang City Antique Association, the situation of the antique market in Hongjiang City was not what it is now.

At that time, many foreign traders colluded with our country's cultural relics dealers, resulting in the loss of many cultural relics in our country and heavy losses.

After Chen Zeyi took office, he carried out reforms, and now Chen Ze has recovered many lost cultural relics and antiques.

In this way, the antique culture in Hongjiang City can do so well.

However, Liu Zimin's words were still not finished.

Liu Zimin hesitated slightly, but finally spoke out.

"However, what Chairman Chen did was not entirely a good thing."

When Liu Zimin said this, Jiang Li was really curious.

So listen carefully.

"There are many treasures in Hongjiang City, and there are also many fakes and imitations. Mr. Jiang Xiao must know about it."

Jiang Li nodded.

Not to mention the big market, when Jiang Li used to collect things in the country alleys, he would often come across imitations and counterfeit products, all of which were exquisite, and if he hadn't been a bit skilled, he wouldn't have been able to spot them. .

"This has something to do with President Chen?"

When Liu Zimin heard Jiang Li's question, he wished he could cover Jiang Li's mouth with his hand.

"Keep your voice down, walls have ears."

As he spoke, Liu Zimin explained directly to the receptionist at the door, and then took Jiang Li to the office upstairs.

Jiang Li now thinks that Liu Zimin's actions are exaggerated, and Jiang Li will understand in the future.

When they reached the office upstairs, Liu Zimin poured Jiang Li some tea and began to speak slowly.

"President Chen has his own factory."

"Fake Factory?"

Liu Zimin nodded.

"Mr. Jiang Xiao, don't believe me. Several of my friends used to work with President Chen. They were in that factory, and there are still one or two of them."

"So many people in Hongjiang City know about it?"

Liu Zimin still nodded.

"The factory is very big, I heard that there is more than one."

"No one cares?"

Jiang Li was puzzled.

This time Liu Zimin just laughed.

"Who dares to take care of it? Now I am afraid that no one in the entire Hongjiang City can compete with Chairman Chen Zechen. In the early years, he was still hiding it, but now he doesn't care about it. This news has spread among the top brass in the industry. , and he doesn’t care.”

Jiang Li's expression became more and more serious. Thinking about it, no one who loves antiques likes the appearance of fakes. To be precise, he can't see the appearance of fakes at all.

But now Jiang Li doesn't seem to have any right to speak, one has no power and two has no power, what else can he do.

Just when Liu Zimin was still telling Jiang Li the gossip about Chen Ze with great interest, the bell in Jiang Li's hand rang.

Jiang Li looked at it, and found that it was an unfamiliar local number.

Jiang Li answered.

I heard a fairly familiar voice.

"Mr. Jiang Xiao, hello, I'm Chen Ze, I'm sorry to call you."

"President Chen?"

This phone call was something that Jiang Li never thought of. Sure enough, he can't speak ill of people behind their backs. Now it's as if he's been caught.

Liu Zimin also widened his eyes.

"Mr. Jiang Xiao, do you have time now? I want to ask you to do me a favor. It's about cultural relics."

Both Chen Ze and Jiang Li understood the last sentence, it was for explanation.

Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then looked at Liu Zimin.

Liu Zimin heard it too, so he told Jiang Li directly.

"Go! Go! Go……"

Jiang Li also agreed, and then told Chen Ze his address, waiting for Chen Ze to send someone to pick him up.

After hanging up the phone.

Jiang Li was still a little puzzled.

"Mr. Jiang Xiao, it's a good thing that Chairman Chen discovered your ability. He even said he has something to ask you, so you should go and have a look. Maybe it will help you in the future."

Although Liu Zimin admired Jiang Li, he never thought of keeping Jiang Li in his Wenxiang Hall. From the beginning, Liu Zimin knew that this Jiang Li was definitely not a thing in the pool.

Jiang Li nodded.

Chen Ze still kept a low profile, he didn't send any particularly luxurious car to pick up Jiang Li, it was a very ordinary Hutou Ben, but it still looked grand.

After Jiang Li got into the car, he asked the driver where he was going, but the driver didn't say a word. If Jiang Li hadn't heard him send a voice report to Chen Ze, Jiang Li would have thought the driver was dumb.

The car drove at a moderate speed for about an hour, and finally, the car drove directly into a manor in the wealthy area of ​​Hongjiang City.

After parking, the driver showed Jiang Li the way, but he still didn't say a word.

The driver led Jiang Li into a villa.

Chen Ze is waiting in the living room.

But when Jiang Li saw Chen Ze again, Chen Ze was no longer the same as when he was at the auction, the current Chen Ze was wearing a hanging bottle, and his complexion was not so good.

Jiang Li thought about Chen Ze's condition.

Chen Ze spoke first.

"Mr. Jiang Xiao, come and sit down. I'm really sorry to let you see me like this. I'm rude."

Jiang Li's impression of Chen Ze was actually very good, he was polite without putting on airs.

Jiang Li also greeted Chen Ze very politely.

Then Jiang left the mouth.

"President Chen, I can't do anything about your body now."

Chen Ze smiled.

"I invited Mr. Chen Xiao here this time, not because of this matter, but..."

Before Chen Ze said the next thing, he asked the servants and the personal doctor in the house to go out.

When only Jiang Li and Chen Ze were left in the living room.

Chen Ze spoke with a serious expression.

"In the urban museum of Hongjiang City, a Jade Buddha statue of Empress Wu Zetian was stolen. It is a national treasure, but now it can't be found."

Jiang Li knew about that Jade Buddha statue, it was the only one in the world, and it could no longer be measured by money.

"How could such a thing happen?"

Theoretically, urban museums are heavily guarded both day and night, so this shouldn't happen.

Chen Ze also sighed.

"It's an internal staff member. He colluded with outsiders and stole the Jade Buddha statue."

Through Chen Ze's words, Jiang Li saw hope.

"The employee has been caught, right?"

Jiang Li guessed and asked, but his tone was very certain.
