Chapter 513 Where An Yinmu Goes

The next morning, Chen Yi did not rush to leave and took Fang Shuyu to Ruicheng Jade Street.

The rough jade I bought at the Jade Night Market last time has not been processed yet. Now that my mission is completed, of course I have to process it before leaving.

It is not expensive either, high-quality processing costs 100 yuan, and ordinary processing costs 80 yuan.

Chen Yi also couldn't understand why bracelet processing was divided into high-quality and ordinary ones, and the price difference was only twenty yuan.

After buying a bracelet worth thousands of dollars, you still need twenty dollars? Would anyone really choose ordinary processing to save twenty dollars?
Existence is reasonable, it definitely exists.

The more common bar shapes are round bars, regular circles and imperial concubines. Fang Shuyu likes round bars.

The inner and outer circles of the round bar bracelet are both perfect circles, and the bar is also round, symbolizing fullness and perfection. The main thing is that the shape is beautiful. This kind of bracelet is extremely classic and suitable for all ages.

He Shixin and his team also processed the bracelets, so the trip was worthwhile as they could investigate the case and shop at the same time.

After finishing the work, a few people passed by a mid- to high-end jadeite mall. Since they had nothing to do and were not in a hurry, they went in to have a look.

There are very few tourists in the mid-to-high-end jade shopping mall. Looking around, most of them are men. Most of them are wearing short-sleeved shirts and shorts, and slippers. They are obviously insiders.

Jadeite also has a high circulation rate in the industry. You sell it to me and I sell it to you, and I don’t know how much money will be added when it reaches the customer.

"Is that Brother Dou Yinquan? I've seen him frequently these days. Turns out he's really here." Qin Fei saw a stall owner and spoke.

Lin Chen and others also looked over and said that they had seen it too.

It has become a habit for them to watch short videos before going to bed. They are in Ruicheng, Yunzhou, and have also searched for jade information. Big data will naturally give priority to relevant bloggers.

This Brother Quan is quite popular on the Internet. He mainly makes mid-to-high-end jade bracelets. In the Internet age, he has customers all over the country and hundreds of thousands of fans.

Chen Yi didn't recognize him. His mind was full of murder cases during this period and he had no time to check his phone.

As they were talking, a few people walked over. Seeing that there were guests, Brother Quan quickly sat up from the recliner and smiled professionally.

He didn't speak.

There are very few people actively soliciting business for jade sellers in jade shopping malls. Everyone can just look around. If they see something they like, they will naturally ask the price. If the final price meets the psychological expectations of both parties, the deal can be made immediately.

"Is it Brother Quan?" Qin Fei asked after looking for a while.

Brother Quan smiled and nodded: "Yes, a fan?"

"Uh." Qin Fei didn't know how to answer, "I guess so. I saw you before, but your stuff is a bit high-end and I can't afford it."

Brother Quan didn't care, smiling: "Just take a look, maybe you can afford it in the future?"

Harmony brings wealth. He is good at doing business and I also wish him good fortune.

What you said is true. Just because you can't afford it now doesn't mean you can't afford it in the future. You must maintain the same attitude towards both customers and potential customers, so that you can last long.

If one out of a hundred customers who can't afford it turns out to have a lucky break, that would be tens of thousands in profit.

"I present your good wishes." Qin Fei had a good impression of Brother Quan and picked up a bracelet. "How much is this?"

Brother Quan: "Ask for two hundred."

Qin Fei knew that there was a "wan" character at the end, so he put it down quickly.

Chen Yi said that the opening price was two million, and the final estimated transaction price was between three hundred thousand and six hundred thousand. Even if it was three hundred thousand, it was still beyond his reach, and he would have to go without food or drink for two or three years.

"This is beautiful, how much is it?" Lin Chen pointed at one of the high ice glass bracelets and asked, but did not dare to take it.

Chen Yi also reminded that if you don’t buy it, try not to touch high-end bracelets with your hands. There is a possibility of breaking it. Although the probability is very low, there is no need to take the risk.

Brother Quan looked over and answered patiently, "The asking price is 500. I just bought it. You and the seller are following closely."

The water quality of this bracelet is similar to the one on Jiang Yanyan's hand, but the color is inferior. Not to mention full color, there is no floating color, and there is obvious cotton inside.

That’s why I offered five million.

Any color that is a bit pretty is more expensive, but it is already very rare.

Fang Shuyu was the only woman present. She had no interest in the glass bracelet and only took a glance at it before looking away.

As for bracelets, it really depends on personal preference.

After taking a look around, she picked up an ice-type spring-colored bracelet. The color was particularly beautiful, with a small half being purple, a half being green, and the rest being gradient white.

I can see her eyes light up, which must be very pleasing to the eye.

Chen Yi was wealthy and asked directly about the price.

Brother Quan paid more attention to Chen Yi. Those who could spend tens or hundreds of millions to buy bracelets were not ordinary customers. Over the years, his eyesight had been trained very well.

This young man's confidence in his wealth emanates naturally from the inside out and cannot be faked.

"The asking price is five hundred." Brother Quan said.

This bracelet is not of glass quality, but it wins in color, so the price is the same as that of the glass bracelet.

Chen Yi estimated that it would take more than 1.5 million and less than 2 million, the market price, to win the bid.

If you like it, buy it.

If Chen Zhiyao knew that Chen Yi was reluctant to spend even two million on his daughter-in-law, he would definitely scold him.

Fang Shuyu looked at Chen Yi and was about to say that she was just asking casually, but was stopped by Chen Yi. She whispered that it might be useful in various gatherings in the future, so they could buy them slowly and buy whatever they liked without having to be deliberate.

Naturally, the people in the Chen family's network of connections are not ordinary people. Although Fang Shuyu would not be looked down upon for wearing a bracelet worth tens of thousands of dollars, it is still a bit strange. People who don't know would think that the Chen family's daughter-in-law was neglected.

Fang Shuyu thought what she heard made sense, so she stopped talking and continued to admire the bracelet in her hand. She really liked it.

"Can we negotiate for less than one hundred?" Chen Yi asked.

Hearing this, Brother Quan smiled and waved his hands repeatedly: "No, no, how can we talk about this kind of quality below 100?"

Just one sentence and you can tell whether he is an expert or not. The business has potential. After he finished speaking, Brother Quan took out a disposable cup and poured water. He asked the few people to sit down and chat slowly. There is no rush, there is plenty of time.

Chen Yi took out his cell phone, dialed a number, and handed it to Brother Quan.

120.

The prices of materials worth millions are not transparent. The industry's unspoken rules are only known to buyers and sellers and cannot be passed on to outsiders. Otherwise, the next buyer will know the cost and will try to lower the price.

Therefore, silent communication is best to avoid unnecessary trouble.

Brother Quan took a look and shook his head: "No, no, we have to raise it higher."

Chen Yi typed 150 and added thirty directly.

Brother Quan still shook his head.

Chen Yi put down his phone and said helplessly: "Brother Quan, I admit that this material is indeed very good and rare, but the market price is definitely not more than 20 yuan, you should know that."

Brother Quan thought for a moment and said, "Close to two."

Seeing this, Chen Yi picked up his phone again, dialed 180, and added another , showing his sincerity.

This time it's almost time. You can see Brother Quan begins to hesitate. Although the moment is short, Chen Yi seizes it sharply.

It definitely exceeds the cost, but it is hard to judge whether it meets his psychological expectations.

"If you add a little more, you're blocking my capital." Brother Quan was in a difficult situation.

The buyer is never as smart as the seller, and what's more, the other party is a boss who has been dealing in mid-to-high-end jadeite for many years. After hearing this, Chen Yi understood that the ink marks could be sold.

Brother Quan said it was nearly two, and he hesitated when he offered the price of 180 yuan, which meant that he wanted to sell it for more than 190 yuan, while the cost was less than 180 yuan.

This is easy to handle.

Buying mid- to high-end jade is all about psychology and reading micro-expressions, and Brother Quan is no match for this. "That's it." Chen Yi put away his phone, indicating with his actions that he would not bid any more.

There are not many customers who can spend 1.8 million to buy a bracelet. If the other party refuses, it is unknown when the next customer will come.

Brother Quan hesitated.

"Are you selling it? If not, I'm leaving. I just came here to look around." Chen Yi stood up.

Brother Quan immediately looked up, raised his hand and pressed it down, saying with a smile: "No, no, why are you in such a hurry to sit down? Come on, come on, drink some more water."

Chen Yi didn't move.

Brother Quan scratched his head and gritted his teeth and said, "Add another bite! You're really cutting into my capital."

At this stage, no matter how much you add, you will make a profit, and it is difficult for both sides to make concessions.

Chen Yi didn't want to waste time, so he held up two fingers and said, "Add this number."

For a million-level jadeite, a price increase of 20,000 yuan is not too much and is within the normal range.

When Brother Quan saw this, he immediately made the decision: "Deal!"

He smiled happily. He didn't know how much he could earn from this business. Chen Yi estimated it to be around 50,000, no more than 100,000.

The money was transferred and the bracelet belonged to Fang Shuyu.

Qin Fei and others were watching from the side. They found the bargaining very interesting. They knew how rich the Chen family was, so they were not surprised that Chen Yi suddenly paid nearly two million.

The deal was done, and the few people were in no hurry to leave. They started chatting with the boss, and did not hide anything when talking about their professions. Only then did Brother Quan realize that the group of people in front of them were actually police officers.

But judging from his accent, he's obviously not from Ruicheng.

Brother Quan didn't ask too many questions. He knew exactly what to say and what not to say. But regarding Chen Yihao spending millions to buy a bracelet... he was definitely skeptical.

"My family has the conditions." Chen Yi said with a smile.

Brother Quan Xin seems to be a rich second-generation. The fact that he can openly reveal his identity as a policeman shows that he has a clean heart and it is impossible that he has a bad background. How could he be such a fool?

"Police often come to our place, especially during holidays. Officer Chen should understand the reason." Brother Quan said with a smile.

Chen Yi nodded: "I understand. Jade is fragile, and many tourists don't know the rules of the trade."

There are two possibilities for calling the police: either the person bargained for the price and refused to buy the item, or the person accidentally damaged it.

After chatting for a while, a partner came to the stall and handed a bag of raw materials to Brother Quan, who skillfully locked it in the safe.

Seeing this, He Xin couldn't help but ask: "Boss, do you usually put all the bracelets in the safe after get off work?"

Brother Quan nodded: "Yes."

He Shixin: "No one has stolen it, right? These goods must be worth tens of millions."

Brother Quan smiled and said, "Of course it was not possible before, but now the public security is better. This is a key protection area against theft and robbery. The security system is activated after closing the door. There is also a 24-hour duty point near the police station. Who dares to steal?"

"Besides, safes are all high-end and very expensive. Without the combination and key, they cannot be opened. Even professional locksmiths cannot open them."

He Xin said, "Oh," and said, "Only an idiot would dare to have such evil thoughts, and anyone who comes will be caught."

"It sounds safe and will definitely not be lost." Qin Fei said.

This sentence made Brother Quan look at Qin Fei, hesitated for a moment, and whispered: "It's not that absolute, it has been lost."

Maybe it was because Chen Yi had just bought a bracelet worth two million, or maybe it was because the other party was a policeman, Brother Quan started to talk more and even said what he didn't want to say.

"It was lost?" Qin Fei was surprised. "When? How could it be lost despite such strict anti-theft measures?"

Brother Quan said, "I heard about it too. It should be true. At another jade stall, a bracelet worth about three million was lost... many years ago, five or six years? Seven or eight years? Although the law was not as strict as it is now, it was still difficult to steal things."

Qin Fei: "Didn't catch him?"

Brother Quan laughed and said, "How can we catch him if we don't call the police?"

Qin Fei was stunned: "Three million and not calling the police?"

Brother Quan shook his head: "I don't know what happened, but I didn't call the police. Later, the man quit and left Ruicheng."

Qin Fei seemed to be thinking about something, and whispered to himself: "If he didn't call the police, it's very likely that he came here with bad intentions. He was able to enter the Jade Mall with strict security, open the safe and escape unscathed, which shows that he has superb skills..."

He subconsciously looked at Chen Yi.

He Xin also thought of it and looked at Chen Yi.

Could this be done by An Yinmu? He specializes in stealing people with problems, and his skills are not low. This happened in Ruicheng, and the characteristics are completely consistent.

However, Brother Quan only heard it from others, and so many years have passed and no one has called the police, so it is impossible to find any useful clues.

There are so many cases that have been reported to the police but there is still no clue, not to mention those that have not been filed for investigation.

Naturally, Chen Yi immediately thought of An Yinmu, and he was still a strong suspect.

It seems that the other party has committed more crimes than what we know about now. I just happened to hear about one today, and there may be more that I haven't heard of.

If a victim loses money or property that was obtained in an illegal way, it is normal for him to choose not to call the police. Otherwise, he may get himself involved. Even if the stolen property is found, it may not belong to him. The pros and cons are very obvious.

"Brother Quan, do you know or have heard of An Yinmu?" Since the topic has come to this, Chen Yi asked casually.

"An Yinmu?" Brother Quan shook his head, "I don't know him, I've never heard of him."

It seems that I don't remember this name.

"Okay, thank you. We should be leaving too."

Chen Yi stood up and prepared to leave. Just after taking two steps, Brother Quan's voice came.

"I know a guy named Amu."

Chen Yi paused and turned back to ask, "A man?"

Brother Quan: “Male.”

Chen Yi: "What do you do?"

Brother Quan: "He should be dealing in jadeite. He has negotiated several deals with us."

Emerald?

Chen Yi thought it might just be a coincidence, but he still asked, "Do you have any photos?"

Brother Quan: “No.”

Chen Yi returned and asked He Shixin to find the photo of An Yinmu left at the welfare home. He was in his teens. If they were the same person, they should be able to tell them apart, or at least look similar.

Brother Quan looked at it carefully, but could not give a definite answer: "It seems... yes, who is this? Has he committed a crime?"

He was just curious and not worried, and his ignorance did not constitute selling stolen goods.

Chen Yi did not answer, and asked: "When was the last time you saw him?"

Brother Quan thought for a moment and said, "That must have been two years ago. He should have gone abroad. I remember he said so."

Chen Yi: "Going abroad? Are you on good terms?"

"No, I only met him three or four times in total." Brother Quan explained, "At that time, a customer asked me to buy high ice violets, but unfortunately I didn't have any in stock, so I asked some friends to keep an eye out for them. I also told Amu, but he said he was going abroad and would not come back."

Chen Yi: "Which country?"

Brother Quan: "Bagan."
