Shi Yunnan was startled for a second, curled his lips, a little speechless.

He was really unlucky, but he chose a shop blindly on a whim, and he was lucky enough to draw a 'black shop'.

Shi Yunnan turned around, and walked back to his original position without any fear, "Boss, I handled it with care just now, where is there any crack?"

The middle-aged boss showed a distressed expression, pointing to a crack on the back of the jade carving, "Look, it's here!"

Shi Yunnan looked along his fingertips——

This jade carving works is based on a 'bamboo basket', which is full of flat peaches, bergamot and other objects that imply good fortune and well-being.

Generally speaking, the lines of the carving process are very smooth, which is enough to show the skill of the sculptor.

But for this seemingly perfect work, an inconspicuous crack of six to seven centimeters appeared at the 'bamboo basket' on the back.

If you don't look carefully, you don't really hit the eye.

But after a closer look, it does affect the price of the whole work.

"Did you see it? You bumped into this place, and I can't buy it now if I want to change hands. You have to lose money!"

Shi Yunnan shook his head, and retorted with a smile, "Boss, isn't your technique of touching porcelain too old-fashioned? It's too obvious to blackmail people."

"Young man, what do you say?"

The boss put the jade carvings back on the flannel, pointed to the surveillance cameras on the left and right sides, "You can see clearly, we have surveillance cameras in our shop!"

He rolled up his thin sleeves, with a look of 'the reason is not a loss', "The first point is that you came into my shop yourself, and you also valued this jade carving, so you agreed to open the cabinet. Yes or no?"

"that is!"

The clerk naturally spoke to his boss, "At first glance, you are a young layman. There is a saying in our business that you can't beat jade. Do you know what it means?"

Shi Yunnan nodded calmly, "I know."

Jade is a valuable item that is easy to knock and touch. If the seller and the buyer pass it directly by hand, in case of loss caused by a mistake, it is often difficult to determine the fault party for this responsibility.

On the other hand, human hands are easy to secrete sweat, which is easy to leave sweat stains on the surface of jade, which will easily affect the gloss and cleanliness of jade, and some of them will cause difficult cleaning.

Therefore, there is a saying in the industry that "jade can't be handed".

In recent years, in the process of passing on jade wares, some sellers deliberately sell them before the buyer is sure, and make "pengci" to extort money.

There are many such unscrupulous merchants, and serious sellers and buyers pay special attention to this issue.

Having said that, this store has indeed done extra care in this regard.

The middle-aged boss continued, "The second point, I wear special gloves, and the counter is covered with flannelette. When I showed it to you just now, this jade carving is completely fine, and you didn't raise any objections, did you?"

"Later, after you touched it with your hand, and within three seconds of returning it to my hand, the crack appeared! How dare you say that you didn't knock the jade carving too hard when you put it down?"

The middle-aged boss was full of confidence, "Young man, even if you call the police, I'm not afraid!"

Shi Yunnan looked at the jade carving on the counter, a trace of coldness flickered in his eyes——

When the boss showed it to him just now, he deliberately dragged the crack at the bottom of the back with his experienced palm, but after Shi Yunnan took over, he only roughly observed through the front, which gave the former an opportunity to blackmail.

Taking a step back, even if Shi Yunnan noticed it immediately after taking over, the boss must have used other methods to push the 'blame' on him.

After all, this way of touching porcelain by the boss is definitely not the first time!

Just thinking about it, eight or nine young and middle-aged customers wearing Little Red Riding Hood poured into the store, and it looked like a tourist group came in to visit.

The middle-aged boss and the clerk exchanged glances, and the latter quickly understood and yelled——

"Hey, all the bosses are here to comment! This young guy broke the jade in our store and still doesn't recognize it..."

The elders and aunts of the tour group of this age love to join in the fun, and when they heard about this, they gathered around. In addition, they also attracted a few individual customers outside the store who knew jade.

Seeing that the number of people had increased, the clerk repeated what he had just said to Shi Yunnan, which was nothing more than——

There is surveillance in the store to prove everything, it is definitely not that they deliberately blackmailed the porcelain, it is obvious that Shi Yunnan damaged their jade wares, which made it impossible to sell them at a good price.

The grandpas and aunts believed it to be true, but the few Yushi individual tourists looked at each other in dismay, not to tell the truth——

The water in this jade business is deep.

Some stores are sincere and kind to old customers, but they are "kill" to new customers.

This young man was too inexperienced, so he fell into the trap and was fooled. Up to now, he can only let the shopkeeper extort money and slaughter him.

Shi Yunnan fiddled with his mobile phone, facing the gazes gathered around him, he asked, "Boss, how much do you want to buy for this jade?"

When the middle-aged boss heard this, he groaned in his heart——

Small sample.

Even if Pengci is obvious and old-fashioned, what can we do?Still have to obediently take the bait and give money.

The middle-aged boss pretended to be sensible, and took out the sign from the cabinet, "Don't say I cheated you, just follow the price, 30."

Shi Yunnan stared at the boss who opened the lion's mouth, his eyes gradually darkened, and the uncles and aunts who were listening to the excitement suddenly talked about——

"Oh, it costs 30 yuan for such a little thing? I think it's just average."

"This unlucky boy, why are you so careless?"

"30? Are these things so valuable? Are they enough to buy a nice car?"

Some knowledgeable individual jade visitors couldn't stand it any longer, so they stood up and said something for Shi Yunnan, "Boss, these old men, aunts and young guys don't know how to do it, but we do. The texture of your piece of suet jade is worth it no matter what." Not more than 30."

"Sir, what you said is wrong. The objects in our house are all carefully crafted. They are works of art that took the time and effort of the sculptor, and they all have special certificates of craftsmanship. "

"Okay, boss, you can still get a discount when buying and selling complete finished products."

Another individual visitor interrupted with a smile, both openly and secretly towards the 'unlucky' Shi Yunnan.

"Some words are meaningless if you understand them. Since this young man is willing to spend money on lessons, you can just quote the real price."

The middle-aged boss looked at Shi Yunnan who said nothing, and pretended to hesitate for a moment, "How about this, I'll give you a half discount, 15, no less."

A few words and a few words are suddenly half cheaper.

An old man saw the doorway inside, and murmured with his hands behind his back, "It's not kind to cheat a child."

Shi Yunnan took half a step closer, picked up the jade carving again, carefully looked at the crack at the bottom, and subtly curled his lips, "Boss, I thought about it, should I call the police?"

"..."

The boss got stuck, apparently he didn't expect Shi Yunnan to still have this idea.

"Didn't I tell you everything? We have monitoring, and you will be compensated according to the price if you call the police, which is totally unreasonable." The boss showed a bit of impatience, but he was still full of confidence.

"Everyone can watch more, now that the jade is in your hands, don't break it for me again."

"This 15 is the lowest price, you must pay me back! Otherwise, I won't let you go today."

"Boss, I forgot to tell you that I am a jewelry designer. Although I have been dealing with diamonds all the year round, diamonds and jade are not separated, and I am not ignorant of jade..."

As soon as Shi Yunnan said these words, the surprise on the boss's face quickly flashed.

"The edges of the cracks on this jade piece have darkened a bit. Obviously, it has been formed for a certain period of time. Going to the Jade Quality Appraisal Center should be able to produce results."

Shi Yunnan turned his eyes on the boss again, the sharpness in his eyes could almost see through all his dirty deeds.

"What I'm talking about calling the police is not to deal with the compensation for this jade article, but to sue your store for extortion! Anyway, you also said that there are surveillance cameras, and there are so many people in the audience to testify for me."

Speaking of this, the aunt who watched the excitement immediately picked up her mobile phone and kept taking pictures.

The boss avoided his sight, feeling a little uneasy in his heart——

You know, his set of Pingci is purely to defraud those new customers who don't know how to do it.

As long as the two parties repeatedly argue a few times, and he deliberately lowers the compensation price "over and over again", those new buyers will also choose to spend money to buy it.

But he never thought that Shi Yunnan, who looks young, actually has research on jade?

Is this a stubble? !

Shi Yunnan looked around at the display cabinets in the store, and pointedly pointed it out, "I think it's not just this jade that has problems in your store, right?"

"Before me, I should have cheated other new customers who didn't know how to do it? I remember that the sentencing standard for attempted extortion is not low."

"One hundred thousand yuan is enough to be sentenced to a fixed-term imprisonment of more than three years and less than ten years."

Seeing this inner secret being punctured, the eyes of the middle-aged boss flickered in panic, and he retorted without thinking, "You, if you have no money to pay, you will have no money to pay, don't spout blood!"

"This rift should still be repairable, I think it's unlucky to repair it..."

He paused, saving the last bit of luck, "You give me 3000 yuan, and you don't need to be responsible for the follow-up anyway, right?"

From 30 to [-], why not play big diving?

Shi Yunnan sneered and mocked, "A black-hearted businessman like you whose conscience is eaten by dogs, are you worthy of my money?"

People from the tour group heard that Pengci was strange, and immediately supported him, "Young man, don't worry, Auntie has recorded it! When the identification results come out, if he is a liar, we will testify for you in front of the police!"

Shi Yunnan is white, tender and good-looking. Compared with the dark and greasy middle-aged boss, she is obviously more liked by mothers like them.

"..."

The boss was shocked by Shi Yunnan's straightforward words, and his face suddenly became extremely embarrassing.

Originally, he asked the clerk to attract these individual tourists from the tour group, but he just wanted to use the words of outsiders to put pressure on Shi Yunnan to compromise and compensate faster, but what he didn't expect was——

Now the situation is reversed. This group of idle tourists pointed their cameras at him with their mobile phones.

If the video is posted on the Internet casually, other outsiders will not talk about it, but in front of those old fritters in the jade circle, he will have nowhere to hide.

Probably because the discussion in the store became a little louder, and a lot of sellers and individual customers began to gather outside the store.

"Don't be stuck in my store if you have nothing to do, I don't deserve it..." The boss felt guilty and was about to let the clerk drive the customers out.

In the next second, a young and flamboyant voice sounded from the periphery of the crowd——

"What are you doing with so much nonsense? You still call the police? According to the rules, it is not normal to compensate for things in the store that are damaged?"

Shi Yunnan felt that the voice was extremely familiar, and immediately looked sideways, "Yuan Rui?"

The other party was wearing a peaked cap, a pair of exaggerated sunglasses on his nose, and a black mask to completely cover his face.

The visitor met Shi Yunnan's gaze, and took off his sunglasses in disbelief to confirm it.

Looking at each other, the two confirmed each other's identities.

Shi Yunnan caught a glimpse of the bruises at the corners of Yuan Rui's eyes, and he understood - this kid was beaten up last night, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen, and now he still looks disfigured.

"Damn, the enemy's road is narrow."

Yuan Rui muttered angrily, and after finishing speaking, he actually planned to go back to the crowd, regardless of the mess.

The boss thought it was hard to come to help for free, so he hurriedly said, "Yes! This young man in black is right. If you damage something in the store, you should pay for it according to the rules!"

"..."

Yuan Rui paused as he was about to leave, he took off his sunglasses and showed a look of disgust.

I saw Yuan Rui went straight to the edge of the counter, put on his gloves and picked up the jade carving, searched for the cracks at the bottom, took a closer look, and then turned his gaze to Shi Yunnan.

"Beat me so hard, you know you're scared when you encounter this kind of thing?"

"what?"

Shi Yunnan frowned slightly, thinking that Yuan Rui was going to speak for the shopkeeper regardless of right and wrong.

"According to the rules of the Linglong Jade Market, if a customer breaks a jade article, he has to pay a price for compensation; but if the seller breaks the rules secretly..."

Yuan Rui sneered, and suddenly stabilized the bottom of the jade carving with both hands.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Yuan Rui held the jade carving high and slammed the jade carving towards the side of the cabinet.

"Then you should follow the rules!"

- Bang!

There was a big gap in the upper part of the jade carving, and even the edge of the cabinet was dented.

If it is said that the original crack at the bottom was at most a discount, then now, the jade carving with the crack is completely scrapped.

There were panting sounds in the audience.

Shi Yunnan didn't expect Yuan Rui to turn towards him, his brows couldn't hide his surprise, but at the same time he felt that his appetite was happy.

He originally wanted to smash this deceitful jade carving clean, but it was a pity that the boss obviously relied on him. Before the truth came out, he couldn't be so reckless, lest he couldn't explain the reason.

"What are you doing!" the boss yelled anxiously, his face turning ashen with rage.

Yuan Rui took a half step back with the jade carving, and immediately came with an arrogant temper, "What am I doing? Let you, a black-hearted merchant, cheat people with defective products! If I keep it for you, you will cheat other people if you don't keep it! "

The boss was really furious now. Seeing Yuan Rui smashing things, he gnawed to the end, "What kind of fucking wild way are you, you don't know a single fart, that's a new crack! Pay me money!"

"Bah! Young master, I have been growing up in the pile of jade wares since I was a child, so I can't tell the difference between old and new cracks?"

Yuan Rui glanced at Shi Yunnan who was beside him, pulling him extremely confidently.

"I'm protecting the crack at the bottom, it's not broken at all! Anyway, everyone testifies, we'll take it for identification in a while!"

"If I make a mistake, I will compensate you at the original price for the things I smashed! If it's your problem, you can go to jail!"

Shi Yunnan looked at Yuan Rui's appearance like a puffer fish exploding, and almost couldn't hold back his laughter, he almost forgot——

Yuan Rui is the young master of the Yuan Clan's jade wares, he has been fascinated by it since he was a child, not to mention whether he is skilled or not, but he knows the ways of jade and jade wares.

The boss didn't expect that Yuan Rui not only didn't come to help him, but even worsened his efforts to demolish him.

Angry and angry, he raised his fist at Yuan Rui, as if wanting to fight, "Are you courting death?"

Seeing this, Shi Yunnan quickly grabbed the boss's wrist, and with a sweep of his foot, he hit the opponent's ankle bone.

This kick was ruthless, Shi Yunnan really had the power to vent his revenge.

"—Hiss!"

The boss suddenly felt so painful that he almost knelt down with his feet limp.

Shi Yunnan looked at Yuan Rui who was trembling with fright beside him, and thought it was funny, "Don't you hide away? Didn't you get enough beatings yesterday?"

"..."

Yuan Rui wanted to argue unconvinced, but the wound on his lip was pulled when the words reached his mouth, which was broken by Shi Yunnan's punch last night.

He put back his sunglasses, held a jade carving, and hid behind Shi Yunnan shamelessly, "Then what...you can fight, you go!"

The boss recovered from the pain in his ankle, and was just about to pick up the stick, when there was a burst of discussion outside.

"The police are here!"

"Hey, why is Mr. Lu here too? What a big fuss!"

Soon, a group of people came in, apart from the policemen in uniform, there was also a thin man's figure.

Lu Zhao'an immediately looked at Yuan Rui, his brows furrowed imperceptibly, and then he turned his gaze to Shi Yunnan, "Mr. Shi, we meet again."

The police looked around, came in and asked, "Who texted the police?"

"Hi, I'm the caller."

Shi Yunnan took the initiative to admit, and repeated everything that happened in the store just now.

After Lu Zhaoan heard what had happened, his calm eyes became serious, "Boss Chen, where is the jade carving? Show me."

Coincidentally at this time, the owner of the shop next door introduced to a group of people in a low voice——

"Have you ever heard of Yuan's jade wares? It's a real century-old brand! In our market alone, there are five branches owned by Yuan's!"

"The Yuan family has invested in the establishment of this jade market for three generations. Later, although the government took over the land, the Yuan family still has shares. The market rules set have never changed."

"The person inside is Lu Zhao'an, the proud apprentice of the current former boss! He has become a master figure in the domestic jade carving circle at a young age. He is very powerful and sharp-eyed! He will definitely know the new cracks and old scars at a glance, and he doesn't need to take it Went to Shi identification center."

"..."

Boss Chen naturally recognized Lu Zhao'an's identity, and when he saw that the police had followed suit, he felt guilty all of a sudden.

Yuan Rui stuffed the jade carving into Lu Zhao'an's hands with a straight face, with an awkward look of being unhappy.

Before Lu Zhaoan began to identify, Boss Chen did not call himself, "No, don't read it, there is a little misunderstanding in the middle."

"Small misunderstanding?"

Shi Yunnan didn't follow the boss's answer at all, and sneered and mocked, "At first, I asked for 30 yuan, and later I asked for 15 yuan, and then I didn't give up and wanted to pay 3000 yuan for repairs. This is not a misunderstanding, it's blackmail!"

"Comrade police, please take a look at the other items in the store. I suspect that there are other jade wares with cracks. This is by no means the first time they have used such a method of touching porcelain."

Lu Zhao'an did not speak, but carefully looked at the cracks at the bottom of the jade carving.

The third store opened by Yuan's in the market sold a piece of emperor green that was not bad yesterday, and he came to receive the goods in person today.

As for Yuan Rui, he was forcefully forced by his father, Lu Zhaoan's master, to ask him to learn more about jade trading.

Yuan Rui lost interest in Yushi, unwilling to listen, and slipped out again while Lu Zhaoan and the shop assistant were busy.

Then, when Lu Zhaoan went out of the store to look for Yuan Rui, he met the police who rushed over on the way, so they stopped by to have a look.

"Boss Chen."

Lu Zhao'an put the jade carving on a side cabinet and asked, "Do you know the rules of the Linglong Jade Market?"

The Yuan family has set a rule since investing in the establishment of this jade market: that is, sellers cannot be allowed to deceive people.

Later, although the government came forward to take over the land, the Yuan family still held a certain amount of shares, and the established market rules have never changed.

The reason why Yuan Rui was so angry and smashed things was because he was afraid that the boss would ruin the reputation of the jade market in private, which would implicate the Yuan family.

Every year, the market management will uniformly ask the store owners to sign the contract of "integrity management", otherwise they have to follow the rules——

If the light one smashes something, the serious one may really close the store.

"I know, I know, please adults don't remember the villain's mistakes, there was a misunderstanding, yes, I didn't read it carefully."

Boss Chen put on a smirk, and a belated remorse rose in his heart——

It's difficult to do business in the market these days, and their bosses who are more active like them will find ways to make profits in private. As long as the Yuan family doesn't send someone to investigate, everyone won't talk about each other.

First, he met Shi Yunnan, a stubborn stubble, then an arrogant and unreasonable young man smashed his things, and finally attracted the police and Lu Zhaoan?

Today he has suffered eight lifetimes of bad luck!

He didn't extort money, but he lost his wife and lost his army!

"Since you have called the police, let's deal with it according to the normal procedure?" Lu Zhao'an said calmly but without discussion.

Shi Yunnan, who called the police, also agreed with the normal procedure.

When Boss Chen heard this, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Usually when Pengci encounters someone who wants to call the police, he will find a way to do it privately if he can. Anyway, it is a question of whether to pay or not. Why did he really make trouble at the police station today!

It's a pity that no matter how regretful and reluctant the boss is, he can't stand up to the police's law enforcement.

The display cabinets in the store were opened one by one, and many jade carvings had cracks!

Not only that, even in the small warehouse behind the counter, there are jade carvings of 'Peach Buddha's Hand' with similar appearance, and even the cracks are located at the bottom.

OK!

It's a blatantly fraudulent item!

The onlookers at the scene became more and more enthusiastic about shooting videos, shouting 'Exposure! ''Black-hearted store! ''Must close down! '

Boss Chen's face turned pale and then red, red and then blue, he felt panic and regret belatedly——

After what happened today, not to mention that his store may not be able to continue, even his reputation in this circle will be ruined along with it!
