Chapter 19 Fake/Money Case

"You are just a little girl, and you actually want to come and see if this thing is real? Mr. Wu Wenyu hasn't spoken yet!" The middle-aged man glanced at Xu Zhizhi, his eyes were amazed by her beauty for a moment, and then he spoke with disdain in a capital accent.

Once Wu Wenyu's name is used, he won't have to worry about anything.

He stopped Xu Zhizhi from looking down on him because he was afraid that she would notice it, but he didn't want to argue, he just wanted the barbecue restaurant and the waiter to pay!

Xu Zhizhi smiled and said, "Mr. Wu Wenyu hasn't checked it for long, has he? Besides, even if you want the store to compensate you, you must use technology to test it. Before that, I'll take a look. It's just a piece of cake. Everyone can be calmer in the meantime."

Reality is not a face-slapping article that directly throws out a certain amount of money or something. This thing is bound to take a long time. In the end, it may even have to go to court.

“Yes, let the girl take a look. It will take time for me to notify the boss to come to the store,” the store manager’s eyes flickered. He quickly asked the deputy store manager to appease other customers, took photos of the scene, and asked someone to clean up the place.

The two middle-aged men in white button-down suits looked at each other. The man who had just spoken nodded. "Just take a look. We'll wait a little while."

Wu Wenyu's assistant had already collected the broken pieces of the cup into a box. He also looked very pale. If he got involved in this matter, he might go bankrupt.

Lin Yu, Fu Nian and Xu Yunlai looked at Xu Zhizhi, thinking that Xu Zhizhi was just taking a glance and should be fine, so they opened their mouths but said nothing.

Of course Xu Zhizhi knew that this thing was fake because she heard it with her own ears.

But there must be a reason why something is fake. If you can't tell it's fake, then since this thing has passed through Wu Wenyu, it should be counted as real.

Fortunately, she had just exchanged her skills for counterfeiting.

The scope of counterfeiting is very broad. In terms of crime, the production and sale of fake antiques and calligraphy and paintings for money is extremely common in the antique industry.

In order to produce counterfeit goods and make them look real, one must have an absolute understanding of the genuine product.

That's why Xu Zhizhi dared to come forward and propose to appraise this thing.

The purpose is just to save lives. Dying because of being deceived is too heavy for ordinary people.

She didn't wear gloves, but moved the box in front of her.

Xu Zhizhi was looking at it carefully, and Wu Wenyu sitting opposite her was also looking at Xu Zhizhi.

He had examined the Qianlong blue and white porcelain cup carefully. Whether it was the body, the patterns, or the signature, it was clear that it was designed and fired by a special manufacturing office in Jingdezhen during the Qianlong period. It was only used by the royal family and was not circulated to the outside world.

The cup is small enough to be held in the palm of your hand. It is open-mouthed like a jar and imitates the shape of a chicken-jar cup. The cup wall is painted with delicate blue floral patterns.

No matter how you look at it, the broken cup is real.

Thinking of this, he looked at the broken cup with regret. It was a pity that such a valuable collection cup was broken, and it seemed that a little girl would be implicated.

At this moment, he actually hoped that this thing was fake.

Xu Zhizhi carefully looked at the blue and white patterns on the cup, and knowledge kept coming to her mind. She looked at the blue and white pattern on the bottom, and then looked at the texture of the porcelain cup.

Within three minutes, Xu Zhizhi put down the broken pieces of the cup in her hand.

"It's a fine piece of china," she said with a smile.

Except for the two middle-aged men who smiled, the expressions of the others were not very good. The man who stretched out his legs and tripped the man said arrogantly: "Of course, this is passed down from my great grandfather's generation, so it is naturally a fine product."

Xu Zhizhi looked at the girl who was trembling so much that she could hardly stand, walked over to her and patted her shoulder.

"At least listen to me! This is a fine product, an exquisite counterfeit, it's fake!" Xu Zhizhi looked determined and looked at the two of them coldly, "As for the so-called grandfather's hand-me-down, I think it was made last week!"

She picked up the broken corner of the cup and continued, "As for the price, five hundred yuan is not more, considering the good craftsmanship."

"You're talking nonsense!" Before he finished speaking, the middle-aged man pointed his index finger at Xu Zhizhi, "You little girl, have you ever learned how to appraise antiques? You're just talking nonsense here!"

Xu Yunlai immediately stood beside Xu Zhizhi and said, "Don't do it, put your hands down!"

Lin Yu and Fu Nian also stood beside Xu Zhizhi, staring at the man with unfriendly eyes.

"Hear me finish! As soon as my upper lip and lower lip touched, you thought I was talking nonsense. You should listen to me before you judge." Xu Zhizhi was not afraid at all, and her gaze as she played the murderer was also fixed on the man.

The man felt inexplicably frightened, and even a little terrified, muttering: "Then, then you show me the evidence."

Xu Zhizhi took out the fragment with the inscription on the bottom. "First of all, the font is broken by an inch. It was a cup dedicated to the royal family. The Imperial Household Department at that time must have had some stupid brains to miss such a mistake. Don't tell me it was left by the Imperial Household Department. You know it will be scrapped, right?"

"Also, the clay used to make this cup was not up to the standard of the time. It was too rough. The counterfeiter should have used a grinder to grind it three more times before firing it."

"The pattern is not smooth enough. It looks beautiful but the skill is not enough and it is too artificial. I suggest you learn painting for another ten years. In short, it has no soul!"

"Finally, the size. According to the size of the real thing, this one is half an inch smaller."

Every time Xu Zhizhi said something, the face on the other side turned paler.

After finishing speaking, Xu Zhizhi threw the remains of the porcelain cup into the box, making a crisp sound.

Wu Wenyu had already stood up. He trembled as he picked up the cup and examined it carefully. Then he took out a caliper from somewhere and measured it. After he finished the operation, his lips were trembling. "Yes, yes, that's it! It's exactly the same as what the little girl said! The size is half an inch smaller. It should be because they relied on the feel when making the fake."

"But the masters of the official manufacturing office in Jingdezhen at that time would not do that. They were the top porcelain masters and would not leave cups of different sizes!"

The two of them talked at once. Those who didn't understand were confused, while those who understood were sweating profusely.

The middle-aged man was unwilling to miss this opportunity, and continued to stiffen his neck and said: "You guys, don't you think the waiter and the store can't afford the loss, so why don't you unite to make excuses for them! We have given this thing to other experts for appraisal, and we even have the certification!"

After saying that, another middle-aged man took out a certificate and placed it on the table.

But Xu Zhizhi and Wu Wenyu didn't even bother to take a look at it. This kind of certificate can be obtained by spending a little money.

"I made a mistake today. I will not care about this matter anymore. The price of this thing is just as the little girl said. If you accept it, then forget it. If not, I will not let you bully a little girl!" Wu Wenyu was very angry. If he really bought it, even if it was not five million, at a lower price it would still be several million, which would be a huge loss!

And what they are doing is fraud!

The two men looked at each other, knowing that Wu Wenyu's plan was not feasible, and turned to look at Xu Zhizhi who was ruining their plans.

The leading man said, "Little girl, there are some things that I advise you to think twice before you act. You can't afford to offend us. If you leave, we brothers will let you go today."

The store manager had already understood the whole story. The two men were planning to cheat the old man named Wu Wenyu out of his money. Unexpectedly, the waiter had an accident and wanted to cheat them out of money instead.

How could he let it go when there was hope of not having to pay? He said directly: "Let's assume this thing is fake. We'll pay for the five hundred dollars. You two better leave quickly, or I'll call the police for fraud."

The waiter next to her also stopped sobbing, and a glimmer of hope ignited in her eyes.

"What a lie! They don't have the final say!" The two middle-aged men suddenly became anxious. How could they let it go? They rolled up their sleeves and glared at the store manager, and it was obvious that they were going to take action in the next second.

Xu Zhizhi was so poor in her previous life, she knew that 500 yuan was not a small amount, enough for a young girl to live for three or four days. She pushed Xu Yunlai away, looked at the two men, and took out her cell phone, "No compensation for 500 yuan, it was you who suddenly stretched your legs and tripped someone, this is the photo. Maybe you did it on purpose, be careful or we will sue you for intentional blackmail!"

Then he took back his phone, called Qin Su, and looked at the two of them. "This is the number of the head of the city's criminal investigation brigade. I have some friendship with him. As long as I ask him, he will definitely investigate you thoroughly. You guys should consider whether you can withstand his investigation!"

In an instant, the man who was about to swing his two fists at the store manager's face changed, and the next second he switched to gentle mode.

"We are blind."

"I'm sorry, that's what happened today."

After saying that, they picked up the box on the table and left in shame.

Watching the two people leave, the store manager, waiter, and all the customers looked at Xu Zhizhi as if she were a bodhisattva. This middle-aged tattooed thug is very difficult to scare off. He could have smashed the store and beaten people just now.

If you focus on one and ignore the other, he will definitely keep asking for money.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhizhi's few words scared the other party away.

At this time, the phone was connected, and Qin Su's voice came from the other end, "What's wrong?"

"It's okay. They were two rogues who wanted to blackmail others. I called them and scared them away." Xu Zhizhi explained and said goodbye to them.

The waiter looked at Xu Zhizhi's star-like eyes and said solemnly, "Thank you. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do in the future."

Xu Zhizhi waved her hand, turned around and sat down with Fu Nian and the others to eat again.

Wu Wenyu looked at Xu Zhizhi, walked over and handed her a business card with both hands.

"Young girl, you have a good eye. Let's communicate more in the future." Wu Wenyu said with a kind smile, "I am sorry for you today, otherwise I would have lost millions. If you have any difficulties, you can contact the old man. The old man still has some face in the antique world of Jiang City."

Xu Zhizhi said thank you and accepted the business card. More friends mean more paths.

Wu Wenyu watched Xu Zhizhi accept it, then turned around and left with his assistant, but before leaving, he paid for the food ordered by their table.

As for those who didn't go up, let Xu Zhizhi and the others go up.

The store manager breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the problem had been solved, then called his boss and got the problem solved.

After thinking for a while, he took out a 1,000-yuan recharge card from his chain store and handed it to Xu Zhizhi. "Your table is free, and you should also accept this recharge card. If it weren't for you, I might not be able to keep this job."

As a store manager, the store has to pay so much money, not only the waiters will have to pay and be fired, but the store manager will also be unlucky. The boss will not care about the reason, he will just think that you did not manage well, and it will be easy to fire you.

Xu Zhizhi accepted it and continued playing the game.

The store manager leaves.

The waiter later came to apologize to Xu Zhizhi, who had just taken a photo. It was really thoughtful. Although deducting 500 yuan as compensation to others was not much, she would have to work for several days, so it was really great that she didn't have to pay 500 yuan.

Xu Zhizhi comforted the other party and officially ended the matter.

Xu Yunlai and the others all raised their thumbs in approval. Lin Yu looked at Xu Zhizhi in admiration, "Zhizhi, you don't know, you were so handsome just now! You were calm and wise, and you pointed out the opponent's weakness directly, making the opponent run away in disgrace."

"The key is that Zhizhi, you can actually appreciate antiques! That's amazing!" said Fu Nian on the side.

The three of them praised her in unison, and Xu Zhizhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so she could only try to fool them.

Then we ate and left. It wasn’t too late because they still had to film tomorrow.

Tomorrow is the final ending. Fu Nian will still be wrapped up in a dumpling and lying in bed. She is not dead but in the play she has to lie in bed for half a year.

It was not until the murderer Wang Ling was sentenced to death that he slowly woke up.

Xu Zhizhi has already filmed all these scenes, but she is not ready to leave, after all, there is a wrap party for the crew tomorrow night.

I just don’t know if Bai Sheng is in that mood.

Lin Yu was still a little reluctant, the key point was that they had no work arrangements afterwards. Yun Ziwei had no resources, and Xu Zhizhi's incident of tearing up the agent had a certain impact on the company, so she was now almost in a semi-hidden state.

Xu Zhizhi didn't care. She got up early to watch the performance with the crew, and then prepared for the wrap-up banquet in the evening.

Bai Sheng still held the celebration banquet, but he drank a lot of wine. When he was drunk, he apologized to Xu Zhizhi profusely.

Xu Zhizhi didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and the celebration banquet ended in such an atmosphere.

Xu Zhizhi also drank a lot of wine and fell into a deep sleep.

Just as she fell asleep, the internet was trending because Jiang City had cracked down on a serial murderer who mutilated corpses sixteen years ago.

This murderer was once the childhood nightmare of many people in Jiang City, so those who got the news began to spread it from one person to another, and then the reporter marketing account found out.

Then it became a hot topic on the Internet and was at the top of the hot searches.

At the same time, Chen Xu's brutality also opened everyone's eyes, and people began to dig.

I don't know how, but I discovered the crime drama "Black Crow" which is based on this case.

#Black Crow Crew#

#Serial killer arrested#

The two topics were connected together and instantly became the first and second hot searches.

People also discovered that the villain of this crime drama was the famous vase Xu Zhizhi. Netizens who had originally had high hopes immediately gave up and even went to Xu Zhizhi's Weibo to mock her. Bai Sheng was not spared and was criticized for being the director of the bad drama.

Netizens don't need many reasons to curse others. As long as they want to curse, there is nothing they dare not curse.

Bai Sheng was drunk and was dazed when he checked messages in the middle of the night and found that someone had actually sent him a private message.

Looking at the insulting words above, Bai Sheng was so angry that he almost woke up.

He was furious. You can doubt anything about him, but you can't doubt his taste in choosing people! In addition, this drama might not pass the review because of Chen Xu, so he was extremely angry.

Bai Sheng found an audition video that was still on his phone. He was too lazy to edit any text and just posted it on Weibo.

He fell asleep immediately after delivering the message. He was too tired during this period of time and this was already the limit for him.

The next day, Xu Zhizhi was woken up by a call from her new agent Yun Ziwei. She didn't want to answer it, but it would be impolite, so she could only lie on the bed with her head down and answer the call with her eyes closed.

"Hey, Sister Yun..." she shouted weakly.

I don't blame her for this, because she was too tired from acting during this period, and she was trying to catch up with the schedule both in and out of the film. I finally took a nap, but was woken up by the phone.

There was silence on the other end of the phone, as if she didn't expect Xu Zhizhi to behave like this. She thought that making a phone call now was a sign that she was patient enough and salty enough.

Unexpectedly, Xu Zhizhi was more patient than her.

She said helplessly: "Hurry up, you are on fire!"

"Angry? I'm not angry!" Xu Zhizhi opened her eyes wide and looked at the white pillow blankly.

Yun Ziwei was silent for a while as she listened to the sleepy voice, then suddenly said loudly: "I said you are famous! You are number one on the trending search list!"

Xu Zhizhi finally woke up completely, rolled over on the bed, sat up, and opened Weibo.

Yun Ziwei told you the details of what happened on the phone.

Xu Zhizhi became famous because of her acting skills. Bai Shengfa’s Weibo video has been played 2 million times and received over 1 million likes!

The term #许知知宺人犯像像# has been the most searched term on Weibo since last night. Her Weibo account gained 200,000 followers overnight!

Just as Yun Ziwei said, Xu Zhizhi became famous!

Xu Zhizhi clicked on Bai Sheng's Weibo, and the first thing she saw was that video. It was the audition video for her first time joining the crew, and Qin Su even came to her house based on that video.

She clicked on the highly praised comment.

"Fuck, you came in so late at night, I couldn't sleep, I was so scared of some brothers and sisters!"

"I've seen murderers look like this before, and it's just like this!"

"Ahhhhh! It was so scary in the middle of the night. I was wrong. Wuwuwu. I shouldn't have scolded Sister Xu. I was scared to death!"

“Sometimes it’s scary to go online alone.”

The rest were all sounds of "Ahhhhhh" and apologies, as well as people looking forward to the drama and praising Xu Zhizhi's acting skills.

Occasionally, if two people say the acting is average, everyone will laugh at it and tell the audience to watch it a second time to cleanse their brains and wipe their eyes.

Xu Zhizhi: …

Then she checked her Weibo, and it was full of compliments. I have to say, this world truly loves people with acting skills.

However, some "professional" personnel also appeared. They suggested and tagged the relevant departments to investigate Xu Zhizhi. They said that she was obviously a veteran murderer and must be brought to justice.

However, most of the people below knew that this was a joke, and the term was derived and became a hot search.

Xu Zhizhi suddenly looked at the number of fans that kept growing and swallowed hard, "Sister Yun, I can still stay in the entertainment industry. I don't need to find a job for the time being, right?"

"Yes...if your acting skills are recognized and you become popular, the company will not give up on you," Yun Ziwei explained doubtfully. She thought she would hear excited screams, but unexpectedly Xu Zhizhi only cared about whether she didn't have to look for a job.

Xu Zhizhi chatted for a few words and then hung up the phone.

As for the business script docking, Yun Ziwei will be responsible for it. Although the other party is a Buddhist salted fish, his working ability is very good.

This job in the entertainment industry makes money quickly. If she saves enough money to buy a house, raise two cats, and save for a pension, she can retire early!

If you have extra, you can directly sponsor one or two girls to go to school!

She doesn't have high material desires, and if she calculates the money carefully, it's not that much.

She closed her eyes, a smile on her face, ready to go back to sleep and have a sweet dream.

Just when Xu Zhizhi was about to fall asleep in a trance, a phone call came in. Xu Zhizhi was silent for a while and then picked up the phone.

It was an unfamiliar number and she was about to hang up, but the number was from her local Jiang City.

In the hope that it was someone she knew who was contacting her, Xu Zhizhi answered the call, "Hello?"

"I'm sorry to bother you, Miss Xu Zhizhi. I'm Wu Wenyu. I'm contacting you because I have something urgent to discuss with you. Are you available? I'll pay you well."

An old voice came from the phone, and Xu Zhizhi was stunned.

The main thing is that she remembered that she did not give Wu Wenyu her mobile phone number yesterday. So how did the other party know her number?

However, there is one thing worth noting, that is the phrase "rich rewards".

The other party had money, but Xu Zhizhi didn't. Without hesitation, Xu Zhizhi asked, "I'm free. What's the matter? Where?"

Wu Wenyu didn't seem to expect that Xu Zhizhi could be invited so easily. He was stunned for a moment and then gave an address.

It was still a familiar address, and Xu Zhizhi completely dispelled her suspicion that the other party was a liar.

Because no scammer would report the address of the Public Security Bureau.

In order to make money, Xu Zhizhi got up from the bed, washed, changed her clothes and left.

By the way, he left a note for Lin Yu.

Xu Zhizhi took the bus from the gate of the Film and Television City directly to the gate of the Public Security Bureau. It was Qin Su who told her that the main point was to save money!

She wore a black hoodie and sweatpants, her hair was neatly tied up, and she didn't wear any makeup. The main thing was to keep a cool attitude so that others would think she was worth the money!

When Xu Zhizhi arrived, the assistant she met the day before was standing at the door. Upon seeing her coming, he quickly came over and said, "Mr. Wu asked me to pick you up."

"Let's go, no need to be polite," Xu Zhizhi said softly.

After the police on duty at the door verified the identities of the two people, they walked in.

When they arrived at an office and saw Qin Su there, Xu Zhizhi was stunned.

I thought we would have no more interactions in the future, but I didn't expect to meet again so soon.

Qin Su was also surprised by Xu Zhizhi's appearance. He looked at Assistant Wu Yuwen beside her and asked in confusion, "Are you the expert hired by Mr. Wu?"

"Do you know each other?" Wu Yuwen asked.

Qin Su nodded, "We are friends."

"Hahahaha, that's great," Wu Yuwen said with a smile.

Xu Zhizhi remembered that when she made the phone call the night before, she did not mention Qin Su's number.

Did the other party think she was deceiving those two people?

It was pointless to think about all this now. Xu Zhizhi just wanted to know why she was asked to come here.

After a brief chat, several people set off for their destination.

It is not easy to make money from experts. Xu Zhizhi also found out on the way that the phone number was provided directly to Wu Wenyu by the Public Security Bureau, otherwise Wu Wenyu would not know Xu Zhizhi's phone number.

Qin Su thought it was someone with the same name, but he didn't expect it to be Xu Zhizhi.

After arriving at the destination, Xu Zhizhi was stunned by the sight of more than 200 porcelain vases, porcelain wares, antiques, calligraphy and paintings placed in front of her.

Human beings' work has always been vicious and full of resentment.

Just at this moment, Qin Su, who was standing nearby, added, "I heard from Mr. Wu that you are a first-rate judge of antiques, calligraphy and paintings, so you should be able to spot fake //banknotes, right!"

Xu Zhizhi turned around and looked at him:???
