Chapter 1039 Murdering and Killing?

"Mr. Zhao..."

Zhao Qirui had just greeted a friend when he heard a hearty voice from afar.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and saw a middle-aged man with a fat body, bloated like a big meatball, walking quickly from the gate with a surprised face. Chu Chen was worried that he would It won't knock the floor down.

Afterwards, the man greeted everyone enthusiastically. During this period, Zhao Qirui also made an introduction for both parties. It turned out that this person was named Jiang Jiachang, and he was exactly the friend Zhao Qirui mentioned earlier who had hailaoci.

When Jiang Jiachang heard that Chu Chen was Zhao Qirui's nephew, he, who was familiar with Zhao Qirui's background, had a flash of surprise in his eyes, but he didn't immediately flatter him, his words were warm and graceful, and matched with his somewhat happy figure , Chu Chen felt good about him.

Now that he saw Zhao Qirui, Jiang Jiachang didn't plan to sit anywhere else. After saying hello to Zhao Qirui, he sat down with his bodyguards and asked, "Mr. Zhao, When did you come to Haojing?"

"Just a few days after I came here, I said Fatty Jiang, didn't you swear before that you would not participate in the auction? Why are you here again today?"

Jiang Jiachang used to be a frequent visitor to various antique auctions, but once, because of a grudge against an enemy, although the item was photographed, it cost several million more. He felt that he was ashamed, so he I vowed not to participate in antique auctions in the future.

And from then until now, Zhao Qirui had never heard of any auctions he had participated in, so Jiang Jiachang's arrival felt a little strange.

Jiang Jiachang chuckled and said: "When I made the oath, there was a premise, only..."

"I said Fatty Jiang, your Mandarin is too substandard, can you speak slowly!"

Jiang Jiachang's mandarin was not standard, and he spoke it very fast, so everyone had a hard time listening, so Zhao Qirui immediately interrupted him and reminded him with a smile.

"I'm really sorry, I didn't notice it for a while."

Jiang Jiachang quickly apologized, and then tried to control the speed of speech as much as possible: "This oath is only valid when that guy is alive, but some time ago that guy died, so of course the previous things are over."

Zhao Qirui was startled when he heard the words: "Oh? I remember he doesn't seem very old, right?"

"Two years older than me, and I heard that he died of a heart attack."

"heart disease?"

Jiang Jiachang nodded and said: "Speaking of it, this is really strange. I know that guy is in good health, and I heard from a friend of mine that he just had a physical examination half a year ago and there is no problem at all. I don't know Why did he suddenly suffer from a heart attack and die all of a sudden. Hehe, and what's funny is that he just married a young girl in her early twenties a few months ago."

After hearing these words, everyone thought of the plots of murder for money that often appear in novels and TV dramas.

Zhao Qirui asked, "Didn't the police investigate?"

"Of course it's impossible not to investigate."

Jiang Jiachang smiled and said, "However, the autopsy showed that he died of a heart attack. The police have no evidence, so let's just let it go."

At this time, Zhao Heyan suddenly thought: "I said, could she have used a kind of poison that can cause heart disease symptoms, and there is no residual poison in the body?"

Gao Yiya said somewhat dumbfoundingly: "You girl, do you read too many novels? Where does that kind of poison come from in this world? If it really exists, it's not a mess. Some people can kill whoever they want."

Zhao Heyan said confidently: "That's not necessarily the case. Besides, even if someone develops this poison, he will keep it a secret. It's normal if we don't know."

Gao Yiya said speechlessly: "According to what you said, gods also exist, and we can't see them anyway."

"Maybe it really has to exist." Zhao Heyan giggled.

"Too lazy to talk to you..."

Jiang Jiachang said with a smile: "Actually, we also think that the possibility of being killed is relatively high."

"How to say?" Everyone was very curious about such gossip.

Jiang Jiachang shrugged his shoulders: "It's very simple, because the little girl has a will in her hand, and it was made a few days before his death, saying that she left all his property to the little girl. Some time ago, the little girl The girl actually remarried with an inheritance of hundreds of millions. Now his parents and ex-wife are suing, saying that they don't recognize the will and want to redistribute the inheritance."

Hearing this, everyone felt that the possibility of being murdered was very high, but even if people all over the world thought so, it would be futile without evidence.

With nothing to do, everyone gave full play to their imagination on this topic.During this period, almost all the guests who came to participate in the auction arrived.At 55:[-], everyone saw the auctioneer walking to the rostrum with a smile on his face, and the scene immediately fell silent.

The auctioneer said some polite words as usual, and then explained some auction rules. These rules are similar to regular auctions, and few of the guests present don't understand.

Next, when the first bid of the auction appeared on the screen behind the auctioneer, the auctioneer announced the start of the auction.

In the auction in the morning, Chu Chen's idea was to try not to let the foreigners succeed. Even if the foreigners were bound to win, they had to pay a little price.For this reason, he has abandoned his usual low-key style, as long as he is eyeing the lot, he will call it fierce when bidding.

Moreover, Chu Chen didn't know how to use strategies when auctioning. There were a few times when someone deliberately wanted Chu Chen to suffer a disadvantage, but instead, Chu Chen resorted to tricks and asked these people to shoot themselves in the foot, so that in the end, As soon as Chu Chen opened his mouth, some people didn't want to bid.

In other words, if Chu Chen raised the price at the beginning, the organizer was very happy, but later, Chu Chen's style and wisdom made many people dare not bid, which would damage their interests, and of course it is impossible to be happy , the love for Chu Chen also changed from liking to loathing.

But in this situation, they can only use entrustment to solve it. If they can be entrusted, if they are tricked by Chu Chen, they will be the ones who will lose more than they gain. I can go with him.

Because of this, apart from the first few items, Chu Chen actually didn’t spend a lot of money on the other auction items. Based on the apportioned cost, Chu Chen actually made a small profit. This was something he didn’t expect before. But it's something to see.

When the auction in the morning came to an end, everyone counted, and Chu Chen actually spent more than 5000 million RMB on the lot, and there were a total of more than a dozen pieces. This was the first time everyone encountered this situation, and many people were somewhat malicious. Guess, if Chu Chen has no money to pay the bill, what will happen to him then!
However, these people immediately noticed Zhao Qirui who was sitting on the side, and they all thought regretfully, it seems that this kind of excitement is gone.

In fact, not to mention other people, even Zhao Qirui and the others were a little surprised by this, but based on their understanding of Chu Chen, they immediately guessed why Chu Chen did this.

Jiang Jiachang didn't know Chu Chen well, and his performance was about the same as others. Seeing this situation, Zhao Qirui smiled and said: "My nephew is much richer than me. To him, 5000 million is just a gamble." Just a few emeralds."

"Young Master Chu is a master stone gambler?" Jiang Jiachang was a little surprised when he heard the words, but he still felt a little disapproving in his heart. This stone bet can not be raised every time. Chu Chen is considered a master. If he wants to bet 5000 million more Not so easy.

Zhao Heyan said with some pride: "My brother is not only a master, he even won the Emerald King!"

When Jiang Jiachang heard this, his eyes almost popped out. How old is Chu Chen? How could he beat the Emerald King? This is a fairy tale, right?etc!Chu Chen? !
"Master Chu, are you the one who is called the Jade King..."

Zhao Heyan curled her lips: "You already know the name of the Jade King, isn't it nonsense to ask such a question?"

Gao Yiya reprimanded: "Zhao Heyan! Be polite!"

"Who told him to be so stupid!" Zhao Heyan muttered.

Jiang Jiachang smiled quickly and said: "It's true that I didn't realize it. However, I heard that King Yu was a young man before, and I thought he should be in his thirties no matter what. I didn't expect Young Master Chu to be so young. It’s true that people cannot be judged by their appearance, and sea water cannot be measured!”

Chu Chen chuckled, and hurriedly said a few words modestly.

Jiang Jiachang added a few compliments, and then said with a smile on his face: "It's a coincidence today, I bought a set of jewelry before I came here, and some of them are jadeite jewelry, Young Master Chu, can you help me see Have a look?"

"Okay, okay!" Zhao Qirui waved his hand: "It's noon, let's go to dinner first."

"Yes, yes, yes! Mr. Zhao, no matter what, let me do my best as a landlord..."

After the auction was over, Chu Chen followed the staff to pay the money.Since they were all valuables, Chu Chen decided to store them in a bank not far from the clubhouse. Although it was noon, for the organizers, this was not a problem at all.

Due to sufficient manpower, in less than half an hour, all the items that Chu Chen had just photographed were deposited in the bank.Then, the group followed Jiang Jiachang to a private room in a luxurious hotel.

When he got here, Jiang Jiachang was not as urgent as before. He didn't mention the matter of identification during the whole dinner.He didn't take out a jewelry box until everyone was full, opened it, and put it in front of Chu Chen.

There are four things in the box, namely necklaces, earrings, rings, and bracelets.Among them, earrings, rings and bracelets are all jade ornaments. Judging from Chu Chen's experience, they should be made of the same piece of jade. The texture is the bright green of Laokeng glass, which is quite good.

The necklace is composed of a huge natural black opal with natural pearls.

For Wu Ke and the others, because of Chu Chen's relationship, they have already seen a lot of jadeite, so although the three pieces of jadeite jewelry are more expensive than necklaces, their attention is still focused on the opal necklace.certainly.The main reason may be that this opal looks brilliant, and women have very poor resistance to such things.

Opal is Opal in English, which is derived from the Latin Opalus or the Sanskrit "Upala", which means "the beauty of gems in one".Opal is a gelatinous or liquid silica left in the formation cracks and caves to deposit and solidify into an amorphous amorphous gem ore, which also contains animal and plant residues, such as trees, carapaces and bones.

Among the six internationally recognized gemstones, opal gemstones are deeply loved by people for their dazzling changing colors.The ancient Roman natural scientist Pliny once said: "On a piece of opal, you can see the flame of ruby, the color spots like amethyst, and the sea of ​​green like emerald. They are colorful, integrated and beautiful."

Among the several types of opal, black opal is the most famous and most expensive opal variety, and now due to the small amount of resource reserves, the value of random development and collection is getting higher and higher.

Closer to home, many antique jewelry on the market are inlaid with opal.When opal is polished into a hemispherical body stone, its changing colors are dazzling, even like a rainbow.When gently turned, its surface color will change continuously.And the necklace in front of him is like this, maybe it's because of this, Wu Ke and the others seem a little obsessed.

Seeing Wu Ke and the others, Chu Chen smiled secretly and shook his head, and then said to Jiang Jiachang, "Mr. Jiang, I think these three pieces of your jade ornaments are genuine, and the materials are very good."

With Chu Chen's affirmation, Jiang Jiachang was very happy, and then he subconsciously asked: "Young Master Chu, what about this necklace?"

As soon as Jiang Jiachang opened his mouth, he knew that his question was a bit reckless. After all, opal and jadeite were two different things. Chu Chen knew jadeite, but he might not necessarily understand opal.

Speaking of which, Chu Chen only has a little understanding of Opal, and he has never studied the details. Of course, he can judge the authenticity of things by virtue of his supernatural powers, but he really likes this necklace. When something went wrong, he said, "Mr. Jiang, if this necklace can be returned, I suggest you return it."

After hearing this, everyone was stunned, and Jiang Jiachang quickly asked, "Young Master Chu, are you saying that this necklace is a fake?"

Chu Chen replied: "To be honest, I don't know much about opals, but I do know the general method of forgery. You see, this opal has reached this boundary. Apart from the different hues, its changing color It will also disappear suddenly, and if I am not mistaken, it should be made by the 'sandwich' method. Unfortunately, it is already inlaid, otherwise the seam should be visible with a magnifying glass."

Everyone saw that it was exactly what Chu Chen said, which made them very surprised.

Wu Ke asked: "Achen, what method are you talking about 'sandwich'?"

"As the name suggests, it's made as a double or triple stone like a 'sandwich'."

Chu Chen smiled and explained: "The color change of opal is mostly only on the thin layer on the surface. Forgers will stick the real 'white opal' slices on the gray opal that has not changed color. onyx. In the case of black opal, the play-of-color flakes adhere tightly to the solid black agate."

"In other words, except for the top flake which is real, the rest are very cheap stones. As for the method of identification, it can usually be seen as I just said."
