"What are you talking about?" Gong Yaru snorted coldly, "I didn't know what I smashed?" Although I didn't pay attention at that time, I also saw a porcelain vase placed there, how could it be broken before. ”

When Aunt Zhang heard Gong Yaru say this, her expression softened slightly, and she hurriedly explained: "Isn't it? The girl also said that it was obviously intact before...... Xiao Langjun, don't talk nonsense for the sake of these five hundred taels. ”

Jiang Baoqing shook his head slightly: "You really don't give up." ”

She shook the porcelain piece in her hand and said with a smile: "This kind of printed porcelain vase of the previous dynasty can only be sold at a high price because of its integrity, if it is damaged, the price will be greatly discounted." This is what Fang Cai Gong Ji told her, saying that this printed porcelain vase can indeed be sold for eight hundred taels or even one thousand taels if it is in good condition, but if it is damaged, although it can be repaired, the price is not even a hundred taels.

"You put this broken porcelain vase, which is not worth a hundred taels, on the unstable pavement, waiting for an opportunity to move, if anyone accidentally touches it...... Then it will be done, and it will be a few hundred taels of money when it changes hands. Jiang Baoqing chuckled, "It's also that Miss Gong doesn't walk carelessly, your shop is a few inches more than the shop next to it, don't underestimate these few inches, just a little scratch, and then you secretly do something, this thing of breaking the porcelain bottle is planted on her head." ”

Aunt Zhang's face turned pale, Jiang Baoqing had already said this, and she forcibly argued: "You, you are talking nonsense." You don't have any evidence at all, this porcelain vase was clearly intact in the first place......"

"The evidence is already in my hands, and you still don't give up." Jiang Baoqing stretched out his hand and showed Aunt Zhang the broken porcelain piece she held between her fingers, "Do you see it?" The cracks on the edges of this piece of porcelain, which penetrate into the print, are slightly yellowed. She picked up another piece of broken porcelain, "This kind of square is broken, but the gap is pure white." What does this mean? It shows that the previous broken porcelain piece was at least cracked early. Therefore, if you take a broken porcelain vase and pit it five hundred taels, this matter will never be washed in vain. ”

Aunt Zhang's legs were weak and she collapsed to the ground.

The shopkeeper was obviously very nervous: "I didn't expect this person to dare to use a broken porcelain bottle to blind me, but fortunately, this son is as wise as a torch and sees the problem......"

"Come on, shopkeeper," Jiang Baoqing chuckled, "Look at the slight yellowing color on the edge of this broken porcelain piece, you know that the days of breaking are not short." You just said that a few days ago, this lady came to you with a good porcelain vase, and you have confirmed the color, what kind of stupidity is pretending to be here? ”

The shopkeeper's eyes rolled slightly, and he exclaimed, "There must be an intact porcelain vase in the old woman's hand, and another broken one, and she took the intact porcelain vase to identify it around me, and took the broken one out to pit people...... I really don't know! He shouted at Gong Ji, "Young Master, you believe me!" I really don't know! ”

"What's the use of shouting at me," Gong Ji said casually, "If you don't know, you can go with the government...... However, even if you really don't know, this pawnshop won't dare to use you, I'm going to talk to the third uncle Haosheng, even my 'little brother' layman can see the problem, you as a pawn shop, but you didn't find anything abnormal? I don't even have this ability, and I don't know how much money I lost to this pawn shop, and it is light to dismiss you. ”

Gong Ji's tone was not heavy, but the meaning of the words made the shopkeeper feel cold, and he shouted vigorously, "The eldest young master spared him".

Liu Jingyi, who witnessed all this, admired it very much: "Miss Jiang is really amazing. ”

Jiang Baoqing glanced at Liu Jingyi: "Where is it powerful?" If it is really a treasure worth a thousand taels intact, who would be stupid to put that treasure in the outermost part of the stall, doesn't this clearly show that it is touching porcelain? We knew there was a ghost in here from the beginning, okay? ”

"Touching porcelain?" Liu Jingyi was stunned for a moment and said with a smile, "It's really 'touching porcelain'." ”

Gong Yaru was still angry: "You knew there was a problem from the beginning, why did you deliberately watch me make jokes!" You just did it on purpose, what a poisonous heart! ”

Jiang Baoqing didn't pay attention to Gong Yaru at all, she took the five hundred taels back from Aunt Zhang, handed them to Liu Jingyi, and said meaningfully: "Let's have a snack in the future." ”

Liu Jingyi smiled bitterly and didn't speak.

The palace guards went to report to the official, and someone from the government arrested Aunt Zhang and the shopkeeper together. This is a good thing, many people in the vicinity know that the pawn shop of the Gong family actually joined forces with others to trap people, and although it was only one of the shops that had a problem, it caused a collapse of trust.

What is the most important thing in the pawn industry?

It's trust.

The collapse of trust is the most serious and fatal problem.

This matter soon reached the ears of Gong Yuanzhou in the third room of the palace family, and when he learned that there was a faint intervention by the palace plan behind this matter, he was so angry that Gong Yuanzhou fell a lot of things in the house, and went to discuss with the second brother Gong Yuanyu with a blue face.

Of course, Gong Ji is still in a very smooth mood at this time.

Those properties in the Dingguo Marquis Mansion, even if all of them are lost, he will not let the second and third rooms get a cent of profit from them!

In fact, this matter is investigated carefully, and it can be regarded as a "sin" of the palace. If it weren't for the fact that Gong Ji secretly made a big stumbling block to the property of the Marquis Mansion in the business field before, many shops would have lost a lot, and this shopkeeper would not have taken the risk of colluding with that aunt to do such a thing.

Gong Yaru wanted to follow behind Gong Ji, but Gong Ji was very disgusted with Gong Yaru's eyesore, he didn't need to do it himself, he just asked the guards to stop him, and left with Jiang Baoqing.

Leaving Gong Yaru looking at the back of Gong Ji and Jiang Baoqing leaving, she was so angry that she stomped her feet.

Liu Jingyi saw Gong Yaru's appearance, and decided to persuade her again: "Ru'er, don't waste any more thoughts on General Gong, he won't look at you at all at all, he doesn't like you like this." ”

Gong Yaru's face was full of tears, and she said that she didn't believe in evil: "I don't believe it!" So what's so great about Jiang Baoqing? I don't look any worse than her! She's just a grass people, and I'm the daughter of the dignified marquis! Young Master Gong was born in a family, how could he really like a folk girl?! It must be just a joke, Young Master Gong will marry a noble girl like me, not a folk girl! ”

It's very obsessive.

What else can Liu Jingyi say?

He asked himself that he had done his best to this childhood sweetheart.

Liu Jingyi was very tired and said to Gong Yaru: "You can do it yourself." ”
