Chapter 3891 Gold, Silver and Jewelry

Sun Guoxin went on to say, "If that's the case, he would have tested my opinion yesterday. Although he mentioned the gold escort, he didn't have the slightest intention of asking us to work together. And there's no need to wait until the next day, just let Zhen Bao come again and tell me directly that he doesn't want to do it. I guess there's something going on here."

"That's true." Fan Keqin said, "Okay, I'll wait for Zhen Bao to come and have a good chat with him to see how he is doing. I'll report to you later."

"Okay." Sun Guoxin said, "That's it. Let's see what he means first."

After bidding farewell to Sun Guoxin, Fan Keqin returned to his office. He temporarily locked the gold bars in the safe at the back. It seems that the Zhen family, especially Zhen Zhimin, who was the chief of staff, really made a lot of money. After losing the gold, how can we make up for the losses of some senior officials? Either we can find someone to help mediate, or we can apologize in person. But what about sentiment? Can we go with nothing? We must take out real gold and silver to satisfy the senior officials and use our own money to make up for the actual losses of the senior officials.

Otherwise, even though you are the chief of staff of the security division, you are definitely a big shot among ordinary people. But in the eyes of the senior officers above, you are just a person who is not doing your job well and caused me to suffer losses. Without real money to make up for it, what are you doing?

But Fan Keqin and Hua Zhang have been back for a few days, and there is no news about Zhen Zhimin and the others. What does this mean? It means that Zhen Zhimin and the others have used their own money to make up for the losses of the senior officers. This amount of money is not a small amount, but even so, the thank-you gift to myself is ten large yellow croakers, not to mention that the gift to Sun Guoxin must be more. It can be seen how much money the old Zhen family has made.

Fan Keqin stayed in the office until almost eleven o'clock, almost time for lunch, when Zhuang Xiaoman told him that the gate guard had called and Zhen Bao was here. So she let him come up.

After a while, Zhen Bao came in. After entering, he apologized repeatedly, saying that he had disturbed Fan Keqin's lunch time. So, why not let him treat them to a meal at a restaurant outside, and he had already made an appointment with the restaurant. Seeing him say this, Fan Keqin knew that something must have happened. But it didn't matter where he said it, it was the same, so he agreed.

They took a car and arrived at a restaurant called Ma's Restaurant. They went up to a private room on the second floor and asked the restaurant to serve a table of delicacies. The two of them started to eat and drink, and after three rounds of wine and five dishes, Fan Keqin said, "Brother Zhen Bao, is there something wrong? Just tell me, I will definitely not refuse if I can do it. Even if it is impossible, we can still discuss it."

Zhen Bao said, "Director Fan has a keen eye. There is indeed something going on, and that is this matter..." As he spoke, he stood up, walked to the door, slightly opened the door and looked around, then closed the door again, came back and sat down, and lowered his voice and said, "I just want to cooperate with Director Fan and make some more money."

"Oh?" Fan Keqin said, "It's business. What's so secret about business? What's the deal?"

"Gold and jewelry." Zhen Bao still lowered his voice and said, "I am dissatisfied with what Chief Fan said. This time, our family suffered heavy losses. But it is also reasonable. Although escorting gold itself is doing things for the government, there are many interests of senior officials in it. This time it failed, and the interests of these senior officials must be compensated by our family. My father has been running around these days to do these things. To be honest with Chief Fan, the family's food reserves are almost empty. This can barely be regarded as making up for the losses of the senior officials." Fan Keqin nodded and said, "Well, this is not a secret. If there is no personal interest in this gold... that would be a strange thing."

"Yes." Zhen Bao said: "This is not a secret. Everyone knows it. But this time, our Zhen family has really hit rock bottom, so we are thinking about how to make up for it. So we learned that a batch of gold, silver and jewelry was shipped from Wuhan and Hefei, and there were also antiques and cultural relics. There are about two large trucks. Of course, this is only one of the batches, but it is enough. If we can get it, then we can make up for the loss of our family, and Commander Fan can also make some money. I just don't know if Commander Fan is willing to cooperate."

Fan Keqin understood immediately after hearing this. This was the same as the government's collection of wealth from all over the country. They must be one of the batches, and then the old Zhen family got this information from somewhere, and they were really running out of money, so they thought about it. But can this deal be done? The risk must be very high.

Fan Keqin frowned and said, "Brother Zhen Bao, isn't this the government's property? If we move it... it will be very bad. The risk is too high. Listen to my advice, don't move. Otherwise, if something really happens, it will be a disaster."

Zhen Bao said: "Director Fan doesn't know that this batch of wealth was actually obtained by plundering the land. Moreover, this batch of wealth was not transported by water, but by land, and was transported by trucks. For the sake of confidentiality, the escorting forces were relatively few. It is really a rare opportunity. As long as we find a good place to attack them halfway, it will be easy to take them down."

Fan Keqin said: "But it is impossible not to investigate afterwards. For example, the source of this information may not be hidden from the subsequent investigation."

"Don't worry about that." Zhen Bao said, "The source of the news is absolutely correct. Among those who organized the transportation, there is an old subordinate of my father. My father has been running back and forth these days and encountered some difficulties. He also has some assets that need to be liquidated to make up for the loss of the commander, so he is looking for people to sell them.

This old subordinate was one of them. And afterwards, everyone had to have a drink. It was at the table that this old subordinate complained about the task of organizing the transportation that he was responsible for. There were only risks but no benefits. If he succeeded, he would get his share, but if he failed, he would be implicated, and so on.

But he himself may not remember what he said in this environment. Even if he remembered, would he dare to say it afterwards? And even if he dared to say it, would he be sure that it was us who did it? So there must be no problem. And there were so many people at the time, how could he be sure who it was...
