I am doing well in the Siheyuan

"So fast?"

When Ye Ming explained the whole situation, Director Zhang couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

They had also heard about the problems with this auction house, but the Public Security Bureau did not have enough financial resources to buy out all the counterfeits in the auction house. They could only try to find the source of the counterfeits.

Although Director Zhang was aware that the other party had committed forgery, he was unable to take action easily due to the situation.

Now with Ye Ming's timely assistance, they can directly close the net and arrest the person.

"As long as you don't mind me causing you trouble!"

Ye Ming made a light-hearted joke.

"No way! This is a great achievement for our Public Security Bureau. We are the ones who should thank them. We just need to follow the clues and find the real culprit!"

Director Zhang was very polite to Ye Ming.

On weekdays, Ye Ming provided them with a lot of help.

He controls the economic lifeline of the city and maintains a keen insight into any disturbance in the city.

Whenever I encounter a difficult case, I can always get new ideas for solving it by turning to him.

Sijiu City is the central area, and any minor change may lead to a major chain reaction.

If it weren't for Ye Ming, Director Zhang wouldn't be able to drink tea and discuss matters in peace in the Public Security Bureau.

“It’s just a matter of working together and collaborating.”

The two of them chatted for a while.

When Ye Ming was about to leave, Captain Zhao took out the comparison certificate and handed it to him. These were all key evidences.

"Recall the police force in the bureau. Not only must we arrest the suspect, but we must also help Mr. Ye recover the lost money. This major counterfeiting case involving 20 million yuan is enough to keep the brothers busy for a while!"

After Ye Ming left, Director Zhang gave instructions to Captain Zhao and decided to handle the case personally.

Ye Ming left the Public Security Bureau and went straight to the headquarters of the Sijiucheng Daily.

After entering the headquarters building, he went directly to Minister Li's office.

"Oh, it's so rare to see this!"

Seeing Ye Ming, Minister Li looked up with surprise on his face.

"Tell me, what's the big news today?"

Minister Li has a good relationship with Ye Ming and is quite frank during the conversation.

"It is estimated that a major fraud case will be solved today. Do you think it is worth reporting? I estimate that the amount involved is about 20 million."

Ye Ming didn't bother to be polite and sat down opposite Minister Li.

"Twenty million? Is that true?"

When Minister Li heard this, he immediately stood up from his seat.

Explosive news means an increase in newspaper sales, but the current competition in the newspaper industry in Beijing is far more intense than one can imagine.

"Of course it's true. When did I lie to you?"

Ye Ming looked at Minister Li calmly.

"When and where? I'll send reporters over right now!"

Minister Li was very excited, knowing that any news brought by Ye Ming himself must be extraordinary.

The last time Changze Auction House opened, Ye Ming also informed it in advance, and the news report brought an astonishing sales volume of 357 million copies.

"Folley Auction House!"

After Ye Ming told him the location, a look of confusion appeared on Minister Li's face.

"Didn't the Foley Auction House just hold its second auction? Last time, you specifically asked us not to report it, saying there was something fishy going on."

“As the second newly opened auction house, although the Yuan blue and white porcelain at the first auction failed to sell, it still has certain reporting value.

But since you warned me at the time, I told people not to interfere."

Minister Li looked puzzled.

Last time, Ye Ming specifically informed them not to report on the Foley Auction House, saying that there were problems. Out of trust in Ye Ming's vision and friendship, he followed Ye Ming's advice.

“I asked you not to report earlier because of this moment today.

Just like you praised someone a few days ago, but today you find out that he has done all kinds of bad things, would you report it or not? "

Ye Ming gave an example.

"Alas, this kind of reversal will indeed affect the credibility of the newspaper, even if the other party has indeed done all kinds of bad things."

Minister Li shook his head, looking helpless.

Newspapers are concerned about timeliness. In order to pursue hot topics, they sometimes inevitably sacrifice some authenticity. When the truth is not clear, they often choose to delay reporting.

"Now that Foley is trapped, they are using the auction house to trade in fakes. I think this event will be as sensational as the establishment of the first auction house."

Ye Ming did not explain further and directly released the most newsworthy news of the day.

"My goodness, this is truly the calm before the storm!"

As the director of the newspaper, Minister Li instantly understood the value of this news.

"By the way, is there anything I need to pay special attention to?"

Minister Li did not make a decision immediately. After all, Ye Ming came to him in person, so he must have something special to remind him of.

"The protagonist this time is the owner of the Changze Antique Museum. After hearing rumors that the auction house had fakes, he spent 20 million yuan to buy most of the antiques in the auction house. After the antiques were strictly appraised by the cultural relics department, he resolutely chose to report to the police."

At this moment, Ye Ming took out the photo he had prepared long ago and gently placed it on Minister Li's desk.

The figures of Guan Lao and Polan Hou are shown in the picture.

"appropriate!"

Minister Li understood Ye Ming's intention and agreed decisively.

Just as Ye Ming was leaving the newspaper office, Li Huaide and his group just walked into the Jinchangsheng Restaurant, and Director Zhang of the Public Security Bureau was nervously counting the personnel in the operation.

"You're finally here!"

At the gate of Jin Changsheng, Uncle Liu learned that Li Huaide had arrived, and specially brought Su Meng to greet him.

Under the enthusiastic guidance of Uncle Liu, Li Huaide's team stepped into Jin Changsheng's luxurious box.

Everything went according to Uncle Liu's careful arrangements in advance. A table of sumptuous dishes was quickly served, and all the ingredients were top quality.

Li Huaide looked around at the guests and felt very satisfied.

After the successful hosting of two auctions, he had a large number of talented people and abundant funds under his command.

“First of all, let’s raise a toast to celebrate the success of this second auction. It is because of everyone’s concerted efforts that this auction has come to a successful conclusion and achieved brilliant results!”

Li Huaide stood up and raised a glass of wine, and everyone at the table responded and raised their glasses together.

"Next, I want to say that this auction is just the beginning. Our Foley Auction House will prosper as long as we keep working hard!"

Just as Li Huaide was making an impassioned speech, several police cars quietly stopped at the gate of Jin Changsheng.

Uncle Liu rushed over as soon as he got the news. Seeing the group's strict formation, he felt uneasy.

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

Uncle Liu felt not only anxious but also confused.

Jin Changsheng has always been law-abiding and there have been no personnel changes recently. He really can't understand what could have caused the police station to make such a fuss.

"This matter has little to do with your restaurant, so there is no need to intervene."

Director Zhang waved his hand to Uncle Liu, indicating that he didn't need to ask any more questions.

Before he finished speaking, his police officers had already opened the doors of each box one by one.

Could it be that the dining guests had done something wrong?

Although Uncle Liu had some doubts, he did not stop it.
