Chapter 314
The two men swam to the other side for their lives, and the police stopped chasing them. In desperation, the two men were about to be fed to the fish, so they turned around and went back to catch something else.
In the end, we caught 12 of them, and about ten of them ran away.
These people were to be taken back to the local police station. When they were brought out one after another, Su Miao and the other two pretended to be passing by and watched secretly. Su Miao thought the scene was a bit funny, like the group of mice that were caught in "Black Cat Sheriff".
Suddenly, Xiao Meng became excited. He pulled Su Yuanzheng and said, "Boss Su! That's the one! The one with the hole in the vest, he's the one who sold me the fake card!"
The police officers leading the two teams were talking in the back. Su Yuanzheng went over and said a few words, and the uncle in the vest was detained.
After the police from the local police station took all the gamblers away, the uncle in the vest was taken to two pavilions and surrounded by a group of people. After all the busy work today, they finally found him. I wonder if he is the source.
The leading police officer asked seriously, "Do you know why we detained you?"
He looked around, his eyes fell on Xiao Meng and the Su family father and daughter, nodded and said, "I know, young man, I'll return the money to you."
Xiao Meng said excitedly: "Where's that card! Where's the Monkey King card?"
"That card isn't mine, so I can't give it to you. I can only refund you the money."
Su Yuanzheng asked him, "Where did you get the fake cards? How many have you sold?"
Seeing that they had brought the police to his door, the uncle in the vest thought it was useless to argue, so he simply confessed everything.
It turned out that his neighbor was an employee of a small printing factory. When they were drinking together before, his neighbor said that there was a card collecting activity that had a lot of people participating.
There were a few cards that seemed to be in short supply for many people. He had wanted to use his position to print some and sell them, but the printing process for the cards was too advanced. After trying many times, he failed to make them look real enough, and he felt that this way of making money was not working.
In order to print the "Monkey King Card", he spent two hundred yuan to buy a real card from another person, but he couldn't make it even if he followed the instructions. He complained that he had lost a lot of money.
Then the obsessed uncle in the vest came up with an idea. When he played cards here, he heard that many people also collected cards. So he decided to look for people here and sell fake cards to them.
At that time, his neighbors laughed at him for his wild imagination. They said that people were not blind. They could tell for themselves that the cards were not realistic, so who would buy them?
The uncle in the vest immediately showed him his trick with two real and fake cards. He used the trick of replacing the real cards with fake ones that he had learned from years of gambling.
In this way, the two colluded with each other and sold 10 fake cards in a month and a half, making a profit of 600 yuan.
Those who were deceived were specially selected by the uncle in the vest. First of all, they were not regular visitors to this small park, but came here by chance to participate in the D. Secondly, they were avid card collectors.
Every time the man in the vest cheats someone, he won’t come here again until several days later.
Those who were cheated were all here to participate in the D, so naturally they did not dare to call the police. If they came to find the uncle in the vest themselves and waited for a few days without seeing him, they would think that he had run away.
Once, a patient man waited for several days and finally caught the uncle in the vest, but the uncle in the vest denied it. After all, it was a secret transaction and there was no receipt, so it was normal for him to want to deny it.
The man wanted to make a fuss, but was driven away by other gamblers, who told him not to cause trouble here and attract more people, otherwise they would beat him up.
The victim had no choice but to admit defeat and leave. After that, the uncle in the vest became even more rampant until he was arrested today.
At this point, the source of the fake cards was finally found. The public security comrades went to arrest the neighbor of the uncle in the vest, and he confessed to his actions.
They commit fraud, extortion, and defraud money. They will definitely have to return the money they have defrauded and will also face administrative penalties.
Because their behavior had a negative impact on "Su Ji", they had to make corresponding compensation, but after all, they did not really suffer any economic losses, so the compensation was not great, and they only received 50 yuan in lost wages.
However, Su Miao asked them to make a public apology and asked them to write an apology letter on the spot and hand it to her. After returning, she would post it at the door of the store to eliminate some of the negative impact.
As for the genuine "Monkey King Card," the police officer told the counterfeiter, "Although you paid for this card, you used it for improper purposes. To compensate Su Ji, they should take the card back. Do you have any objection?"
Things had come to this point, and since the public security comrade had spoken personally, how could he dare to have any objections? He could only nod and agree.
When Su Miao took the card, Xiao Meng stared at it intently, then said eagerly, "Boss, what should we do with this card after we take it back? Should we destroy it?"
Su Miao replied, "Since this card has never been redeemed for a prize, it will naturally not be destroyed. I will repackage it in a jar of shredded papaya."
Xiao Meng rubbed his hands and said, "That's good, then I have another chance to win. I really love eating your shredded papaya. I eat it with porridge every day. Hehe! Of course, I also love collecting cards!"
Su Miao thought for a moment and said, "Although it's a bad thing for you to come here to participate in the D-Bet, and it also caused your roommate to steal fake cards to redeem the prize money, it has helped us discover the improper behavior of making fake cards and led us to the source of the fake cards.
So the store decided to give you a few cans of papaya shreds as a gift to thank you for your support of our business."
"Really! Are you really going to give me a few cans of shredded papaya for free?" Xiao Meng exclaimed in surprise.
"Of course it's real. You can come to our store to pick it up at noon tomorrow."
Xiao Meng said a lot of nice things with gratitude. He didn't expect that today he not only recovered the money he was cheated of, avoided punishment, met the owner of "Su Ji", but also received gifts. Today was really a good day.
On the way home, Su Yuanzheng asked his daughter, "Miaomiao, did you have any plans to have Xiao Meng come to pick up the papaya shreds tomorrow?"
"Hey, the one who knows me best is my dad. I plan to repackage the entire card and give it to him tomorrow."
"Hmm? Why is that?"
"It's been a while since the last cash prize was awarded, and we need another one to increase the buzz.
Xiao Meng is a typical representative of many card collecting supporters, and this time he indeed let us know about the counterfeiting of cards by accident.
Next...look at how big his mouth is. He usually lets everyone know about his card collection. If he really wins the grand prize, he'll definitely let the whole world know. It'll just be a good advertisement."
