Chapter 871: The Merchant of the Evil One?
"Xiao Ran, there's a strange thing I have to report to you!"
"What do you find strange?"
The office was very quiet, and after a fierce battle, the two of them were lying on the sofa, owning each other, enjoying the warmth brought by Gao Chao's aftertaste.
Qin Siyi is now the vice president, responsible for assisting Le Hui in managing the antique market in Xiacheng, and after two years of training, she has basically been able to stand alone, and she is no longer the pretty village girl she used to be.
As for herself, she understands the skills of antique appraisal through her family tradition, and she is diligent and studious, and will often learn from experts, so her professional skills will become stronger and more experienced.
Recently, Xu Ran has not paid attention to the situation of the antique market, that is, a few days ago, when he went to several major cooperative enterprises to inspect and visit, he passed by the estimation city, and only then did he and Le Hui learn about the operation of the antique market in the estimation city, and Xia Cheng has not yet made a detailed understanding.
Now that he heard Qin Siyi say that something strange had happened, Xu Ran was a little curious, because he knew that the situation in the sand sea ditch was very chaotic now, and it might affect the antique market here.
Qin Siyi said: "It's just this recent period, every time we open the market, there will be a few strangers in the market, they will rent a booth after paying the fee from us, but nothing will be displayed, and they will leave when the market is about to close!"
As soon as Xu Ran heard this, he felt that there was something strange in it: "Is that what they do every time they open the market, they pay a fee to rent a booth according to our rules, and then they don't sell anything?"
"Yes!"
Qin Siyi was a little surprised that Xu Ran guessed so accurately, and continued: "At first, we didn't think there was anything unusual, people paid the rental fee and didn't sell things, and it was impossible for us to interfere, but after the third time, something strange happened, not those strangers, but one of our cooperative merchants here had a problem......
"What's wrong with that partner?"
"It's that our partner merchant will suddenly behave very strangely within fifteen minutes, he will suddenly run to sweep the booth and pack up all the things that others sell at the booth!"
Xu Ran said: "So did this cooperative merchant sell the things that he bought in a package to those strangers?"
"Nope!"
Qin Siyi shook her head: "Those strangers will leave every time the market is about to close, and they have not had any contact with that cooperative merchant."
On the contrary, the merchant came back after collecting a bunch of things, and when he returned to normal again, he himself felt that something was wrong, saying that he might have been evil, so he asked us to help contact and consult Master Lian, who took the time to come over and probe around the shop, but there was no abnormal finding......"
"Then the market is open today, have those strangers been here?"
Bell bell!
As he was talking, Qin Siyi's mobile phone suddenly rang.
Qin Siyi looked at the call from his subordinates, then picked it up and said, "What's the matter?"
"Sister Siyi, our cooperative merchant has a problem again, he seems to have gone crazy, smashing things in the shop, smashing his own house, not to mention, but also smashing other businesses, our security department restrained him, I didn't expect his strength to be beyond imagination, and he also injured Xiao Liuzi......"
Hearing this report, Qin Siyi frowned and said, "Are the strangers you asked to spy on still there?"
"They've only been gone for a few minutes!"
"Find a few more people to restrain that Chen Ke first, and I'll rush over immediately!"
After Qin Siyi hung up the phone, she hurriedly began to tidy up and get dressed.
Xu Ran also felt that things were strange, and at this time, he also put on his clothes with his hands and feet, and helped Qin Siyi sort out the clues that he couldn't see, and then the two hurriedly left the office.
At present, the antique company has some fixed cooperative merchants, who have long-term rental shops in this antique market, mainly dealing in some small objects such as ancient coins, Republic of China and modern paper stamps and coins, and acting as an agent for some antique appraisal and agency business.
At the same time, they are also intermediate members of antique companies, and it can be said that the company has mastered the detailed information of each merchant in great detail.
That Chen Ke is also one of the first batch of merchants to settle in the market, and he was also a merchant who had received market discounts, and the couple at home had been operating well for the past two years, although they couldn't make a lot of money, and they couldn't make a fortune, but through the business of treasure connoisseurs and antique intermediaries, the annual income was about three or four hundred thousand, which was not bad.
When Xu Ran and Qin Siyi went downstairs and rushed to the vicinity of the shop rented by Chen Ke's family, they saw that there were many people around the neighborhood, some of them were other merchants here, and some tourists who visited the market to see the excitement.
"This is evil, how did it become like this!"
"Yes, how can a good person go crazy, shouldn't he really be evil?"
"Probably not, I invited Master Lian to see it last time, and there is nothing abnormal!"
"Then what's the matter with his wife, such a big thing happened, and she didn't come?"
"Who knows where the waves are, huh!"
When Xu Ran approached, he heard someone talking.
However, these people's gossip can be regarded as indirectly providing some additional information clues.
"Mr. Qin is here!"
"Boss, you're here, I haven't seen you in the market for a long time......"
When Xu Ran and Qin Siyi came over together, the merchants who found them nearby took the lead in greeting and getting out of the way, but after seeing Xu Ran, these people greeted each other one after another, and they seemed very enthusiastic.
Xu Ran nodded to these people, and then walked from the crowd to the door of the shop, and saw that Chen Ke's shop was in a mess and was also smashed into a mess.
However, Chen Ke deals in small objects such as ancient coins and paper tickets and coins, and even if he smashes it, it is only the glass of the counter and some ornaments and decorative craft porcelain bottles and other things that are not very valuable, and the loss is not too big.
When Xu Ran entered the door, he saw four security guards in the market, a middle-aged man who was in disheveled clothes and looked a little crazy pressed to the ground to make him unable to move.
On the other side, Xiao Liuzi's forehead was broken and bleeding, his arm looked a little like he was dislocated, and his whole face was pale and half lying on the sofa, looking very painful.
"Boss, you're here!"
After these people saw that Xu Ran was also coming, they nodded and said hello.
But Chen Ke suddenly wanted to start going crazy again.
But after Xu Ran only glared at that Chen Ke fiercely, that Chen Ke instantly shrank back like a well-behaved kitten and didn't dare to move, looking a little very afraid of Xu Ran.
When others saw this scene, they felt a little incredible.
Could it be that the boss has some special functions, just glared at that Chen Ke, that guy turned out to be honest? I want to talk about "{?$article_title?} with more like-minded people" ", WeChat pays attention to "excellent reading literature", chatting about life, looking for confidants~
