Jiang Min was taken to the Public Security Bureau for interrogation, but she was not panicked at all. She took out the design book and said, "Let Xiangnan prove that this design is hers."
Xiangnan heard her arrogant words as soon as she entered the interrogation room. She curled her lips slightly and said, "Mrs. Jiang is really brave. I warned you that if you dare to use my drawings, you will lose everything, but you still dare to use them.
Then I must fulfill your wish."
Jiang Min said calmly: "Xiangnan, you'd better not spit blood at me. Don't think that just because you solved the bully for our county, you can do whatever you want and turn black into white.
I bought this blueprint from someone else, so what does it have to do with you? Stop flattering me."
"Really?" Xiangnan picked up the design drawing and took a look. She finally understood why Jiang Min was so calm.
She wasn't stupid, she copied all her designs and drew a new notebook.
No wonder you’re not afraid.
"You copied this blueprint from me. Every outfit has my mark on it."
Jiang Min was stunned: "Impossible! Where did the mark come from?"
"All the drawings here have one thing in common. Since this is the design you bought, call the original owner over and ask her to explain this characteristic, or you can tell us."
"Impossible, I didn't notice any special features." Jiang Min's face showed a trace of panic.
"Don't worry, the police have already arrested Xu Mei. If Xu Mei admits that she helped you steal my design, I won't have to tell you.
If she doesn't tell you, then you'll have the chance to know.
Mrs. Jiang may not know that designers like us are most afraid of being copied and unable to explain ourselves clearly, so we put hidden logos on our clothes. When we sue, we always win.
Xiangnan smiled at Jiang Min. The smile was bright, but Mrs. Jiang felt that it was poisonous!
"I don't know what you're talking about. I bought the blueprint. What does it have to do with me?"
Jiang Min thought that even if Xiangnan could really prove that these drawings were designed by her, it didn't matter. She didn't steal them anyway, she just bought them.
She spent money, at most it was considered buying stolen goods, and she just had to hand over the stolen goods.
As for Xu Mei, she didn't dare to give it up, because she would be the one who would go to jail. Besides, she believed that Xu Mei would not dare to offend her, the finance lady.
Her brother is still working as a janitor at the Finance Bureau. If she dares to say anything wrong, she will fire her brother.
After a while, Xu Mei was brought in and the three parties confronted each other.
"Sister-in-law, long time no see. Where did you go with the money from selling my designs? Tsk, you even bought a new dress and got a perm for your hair."
Xu Mei was at Xiangnan's place. Seeing Xiangnan dressed up beautifully every day, she had long wanted to dress herself nicely, but she couldn't bear to do so.
This is a huge sum of money, and I can give myself a good body.
As a result, he was arrested by the police before he could show off for two days.
"Xiangnan, what...what are you doing?" Xu Mei asked in a panic. She heard in the past few days that Xiangnan had sent all the bullies in the county to the police station.
She originally thought Xiangnan would take action against her, but she didn't expect Xiangnan to do anything for several days. She thought Xiangnan would not do anything to her because of Li Mo's face.
I didn't expect to be arrested today.
"Sister-in-law, do you want to admit that Jiang Min ordered you to come to my house and steal the design drawings?... Think about it, if you don't, I still have a way to make you admit it, but the method will be a little cruel and laborious.
If you want to suffer this hardship, then don't complain and see if Jiang Min can protect you."
Xu Mei was scared to death. All the bullies in An County were thrown into jail by Xiangnan. She...did she still have a chance to survive?
But then she thought again, she didn't steal anything valuable, just a painting, so she wouldn't go to jail even if she confessed.
Jiang Min looked at Xu Mei and said, "I didn't even know you before. I didn't tell you to do anything. You should speak with conscience."
Your brother doesn't want his job anymore?
Xiao Zhang slammed the table and said, "What are you looking at? Tell me quickly, did Jiang Min instruct you to steal it?"
"Yes... yes, I went to see my brother that day and told him that I had stolen Xiangnan's recipe and wanted to borrow money from him to start a business. Mrs. Jiang heard it.
She asked me who I was to Xiangnan, and I told her. She said if you could steal Xiangnan's recipe, then you should steal her design drawing.
She is my brother's wife, the director's wife, I dare not disobey her."
Xu Mei said aggrievedly.
"Stop pretending to be wronged. It's all about money. Do you know how much the thing you stole is worth? How dare you steal it? This amount is enough to put you in jail for life!
Jiang Min and Xu Mei have confessed, what else do you have to say?"
"She wanted to take the blame for me after her crime was exposed. I didn't order her to do that. When I bought the notebook from her, I didn't know she had stolen it." Jiang Min remained calm.
Xiangnan sneered: "Mrs. Jiang, the sooner you admit it, the sooner you die. It's better to suffer a short pain than a long one, you know.
What's the point of your denial? The ladies who played mahjong with you that day can all testify that the drawings on this design draft are the same as yours.
You were there and saw it. When you bought it from Xu Mei, you didn't know it was a thief's item. You also denied knowing her and asked Xu Mei's brother to testify. There were also people who entered and exited the Finance Bureau that day. There must have been someone who saw it.
You don't think they dare not testify against you because you are the wife of the Finance Director, do you?
You're still counting on your husband's status to back you up, but your husband is about to be killed by you. You're nothing more than a finance director, a homeless dog or a debtor."
Jiang Min shook her head: "Impossible, don't scare me, I'm not afraid."
“As long as it is proven that you plagiarized and used my designs to make clothes, you will have to pay compensation until you are bankrupt. All your family’s property belongs to me, and you will owe me money for decades.
Understand?"
"Nonsense, how can you possibly pay so much? It's just a few pictures, how much are they worth?"
"I can sell this picture for 100 yuan each if I make it custom-made. There are 30 pictures in this book, and I can sell one for 100 yuan. If the response to this picture is good, I can raise the price to 1,000 yuan each if others come to me to buy it.
I can raise the price for anyone who comes to me later. Not only will no one be willing to pay so much money, but Director Hu knows my husband's identity, and the judge will also know it.
I said that there would be people who would buy these drawings even if they were priced at 10,000 yuan each.
You're ready to pay me so much that I won't even have any clothes to wear. You have to take off even your underwear!"
Jiang Min pointed at her: "You...you are talking nonsense."
Xiao Zhang slammed the table vigorously and said, "Sit down! What Miss Xiangnan said is true. After we have verified her drawings, they can indeed be sold for 10,000 yuan each.
Jiang Min, if you're not satisfied, speak up in court."
Jiang Min couldn't believe it: "You are in this together, you are protecting her, those crappy blueprints are only a hundred yuan a piece at most, how could they be sold for ten thousand?"
"The judge and lawyer will give you the answer in court. We are all acting in accordance with the law. The value of the things you stole depends on whose things you stole. Madam Jiang, you have offended someone you shouldn't have offended.
I advise you to be honest and tell me everything. Even Black Tiger couldn't handle it, let alone you."
