Chapter 70: Backhand Report
The tour guide pretended to be calm: "I don't understand what you are saying."
Xu Youyou smiled and said, "I called the police ten minutes ago. If you have anything to say, you should wait and talk to the police officer."
The police car arrived quickly.
As soon as the car arrived, we saw two luxury cars waiting on the roadside.
The policeman asked, "Who called the police and said that they saw tomb robbers digging up bronze artifacts worth 200 million yuan?"
Xu Youyou raised her hand.
The police nodded and asked, "What exactly happened? Where is the stuff? Where is the criminal? Tell me."
Because the items involved were of such high value, five police cars came directly this time, and some even brought guns.
Xu Youyou pointed at the tour guide who was being held down by the bodyguards and said, "This guy should be the main culprit. My bodyguards have already controlled him. Now we just need to take down their criminal den."
The tour guide was still shouting that she was wronged: "I don't understand what she is saying at all. She is a tourist who wants to visit our village, so I took her there. There is no bronze artifact at all. She is crazy! I will sue her for controlling her personal freedom!"
Xu Youyou was too lazy to explain: "Officer, we will know once we get there. There is no need to listen to his excuses. Don't worry, we have controlled his phone, so there is no way he can tip off."
Upon hearing this, the police looked at Xu Youyou twice more, and seeing the four muscular bodyguards around her, they believed what she said.
Xu Youyou's car led the way and soon brought the police to the village.
Xu Youyou cared a lot about her own safety, so she did not follow the police into the village. Instead, she sent an eager bodyguard to lead the way for the police.
This group of tomb robbers were completely unprepared, just like the stupid goose at the village entrance. When the police kicked the door open, the group of people were still shouting "goose, goose, goose".
Seeing the police easily escorting eight young men out of the village, Xu Fang couldn't help but ask, "Boss, you are amazing. How did you know that these people were tomb robbers?"
Xu Youyou said, "Do you remember? When we entered the house, we only opened the door to the east side. The door to the west side was tightly closed in broad daylight, and there were noises coming from inside. This is obviously abnormal."
Although Xu Fang also noticed this, he couldn't figure out the connection and asked, "Can't we keep the door closed in broad daylight?"
Xu Youyou said: "Their house is newly built, and it was built no more than a year ago. Most of the houses in this village are two-story buildings. Why is their house a single-story one?"
"Why?" Xu Fang felt that his brain was totally inadequate.
The other bodyguards couldn't figure it out either.
Xu Youyou said: "Because this house was not built for living, but for tomb robbing. They built a house on the tomb to hide it from others, so that they could rob the tomb in the house."
Everyone suddenly realized.
Xu Fang whispered again: "Boss, aren't you tempted by such a valuable treasure? We originally thought you wanted to buy it and then resell it at a high price."
Xu Youyou shook her head. "I won't touch this kind of thing, which is obviously a tomb robber's item. If there is no obvious source of this kind of thing, then it can only be sold overseas. Why should we sell our country's treasures to foreigners?"
Several people nodded.
Officer Chen listened for an unknown amount of time and suddenly asked, "Miss Xu seems to know a lot about tomb robbing?"
Xu Youyou immediately explained: "I only vaguely heard about it. I don't know much about tomb robbing, but I know a little bit about bronze artifacts. They handed the things to me. Although they said they were family heirlooms, I knew at a glance that they were definitely dug out of the ground."
Officer Chen asked again, "Is that bronze tripod really worth 200 million?"
Xu Youyou shook her head: "It's hard to estimate the value of this thing, but I think it's definitely worth 100 million."
As soon as these words were spoken, the police officers present all showed joy on their faces. For cracking down on tomb robbers and protecting the valuable bronze artifacts, each of them would surely be awarded a second-class merit in the future.
As the person who reported the case, Xu Youyou also went back to the police station. By the time she finished her statement and came out, it was already afternoon.
"Sister Xu, call the travel agency and ask for compensation." Xu Youyou said.
Xu Fang was stunned for a moment.
"The travel agency arranged a hidden criminal to be our tour guide and ignored our safety. They should compensate us for this money," said Xu Youyou.
The travel agency had just received news from the police. The operator on the other end of the phone was very angry: "You sent the tour guide to the police station, how dare you ask us for compensation?"
Xu Fang had often bargained at the vegetable market. When she saw Xu Youyou and a group of bodyguards behind her, she seemed to feel more confident: "How on earth do you do things? A tomb robber can be a tour guide in your travel agency. Who knows if the entire travel agency is full of such people? The police should go to your travel agency to arrest people!"
People in the world tend to bully the weak and fear the strong. Xu Fang took a tough stance, and the person on the other end of the phone could not be browbeaten, so he softened his attitude: "Okay, okay, we will refund the tour fee to you."
Xu Fang wanted to agree, but she suddenly saw Xu Youyou frowned, and immediately changed her tone and said to the other end of the phone: "Refunding the money can compensate for our losses? I said, compensation! Your travel agency sent criminals to the guests, do you think this matter can be let go?"
There was a long silence on the other end of the phone before he said, "An additional compensation of one thousand yuan."
Xu Fang had been arguing for so long that she was getting angry: "A thousand yuan to get rid of a beggar? You should at least pay three times the tour fee!"
The people from the travel agency were immediately unhappy, and the two argued for a long time. The final result was to refund all the package tour fees and compensate them with an additional double the tour fee.
Xu Youyou clapped her hands and said, "You handled it very well."
Xu Fang is a dozen years older than Xu Youyou, but she was so excited that her heart was pounding when she was praised by the younger boss.
Xu Youyou didn't care about this small amount of money. She asked the travel agency for money both to vent her anger and as a test.
"Are you interested in being my personal assistant? The salary will be doubled." Xu Youyou asked.
She had been asking Xie Ran to find a personal assistant for some time, but after interviewing several, she hadn't found a particularly suitable one.
When Xu Fang heard the word "double", a strange look immediately appeared in her eyes: "I do!"
"Okay, you will be my personal assistant and driver from now on. You may be busier, but the salary should satisfy you." Xu Youyou said with a smile.
Xu Fang now wanted to show her heart to Xu Youyou. After all, in her opinion, Xu Youyou was simply the best boss in the world because she really gave her subordinates a raise. Following her, there was no need to worry about not being noticed for your efforts! [The task of picking up leaks has been started. Please arrive at the target location as soon as possible.]
Xu Youyou's eyes lit up. Compared to buying goods from tomb robbers at high prices, she still preferred to follow the system to pick up bargains!
But her car drove a few hundred meters out of the police station and arrived at the destination.
After getting off the bus, she looked at the sign above her head with confusion: Flower and Bird Market?
