Chapter 43 Report
Not only the modern celebrity calligraphy and paintings that the old Tao gave to Ye Tian, but also the Wen Zhengming's "Landscape Game Map" received by Feng Kuang was gone. It seems that... these people are still elegant thieves.
"Xiaotian, you and Fengzi stay here. Don't go anywhere. I'll report the crime..."
In this situation, Ye Dongping can only rely on the public security department. After ordering Ye Tian to say a few words, he hurried out of the door.
"Dad, Dad, don't go, I know who it is..."
Ye Tian shouted twice, but Ye Dongping, who was anxious, didn't hear it. Now he only thinks about how to get the calligraphy and paintings back as soon as possible?
****
The Xicheng police station is not far from the acquisition station. Seven or eight minutes later, Ye Dongping came to the door of the police station out of breath, but was stopped by the old man who opened the door.
The doorkeeper was a little behind his ears. Ye Dongping said for a long time, but he didn't understand. He couldn't help but worry and shouted, "Uncle, I'm here to report the case. My family was stolen and I lost tens of thousands of things..."
"Sedreds of thousands? Young man, just brag. I've lived so much that I haven't seen tens of thousands..." The old man curled his lips, but stopped Ye Dongping and pointed out to the director's office.
"This comrade, are you right? What calligraphy and painting can be worth tens of thousands of yuan?"
The director's name is Xu Fujie. He is very kind in his early forties, but when he heard Ye Dongping talk about the value of the lost items, his expression was the same as that of the old man at the door, just like the two of them.
"Shang Xu, do I dare to talk nonsense about this? More than 20 calligraphy and paintings in those two boxes are from famous painters in the late Qing Dynasty and modern times, and one is a work of Wenzhengming in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that tens of thousands of yuan is cheap..."
Seeing that Director Xu didn't believe it, Ye Dongping couldn't help but be a little anxious. Although he was Ye Tian's master, he lost the things that others had treasured for decades, and he had no face to see Li Shanyuan again.
"Comrade Ye, don't worry. I don't know much about these things you said, but even the paintings of the great leader are only a few yuan a few yuan each. Are those things you mentioned so valuable?"
Xu Fujie transferred back from the army and worked in the local area for a few years. At that time, most of the people in the army were from the countryside. As long as the ideological and military quality were excellent, they did not have any requirements for culture.
Director Xu was illiterate before he became a soldier. He didn't rush to learn the culture until he arrived in the army. Although he can barely read newspapers now, he is unheard of what Ye Dongping said about the painting master.
In his opinion, Ye Dongping's so-called celebrity calligraphy and painting are of the same nature as those hanging calendar paintings in recent years. This person exaggerates that he actually wants to pay attention to it.
Although the government staff in this era work hard and have no official airs, and there are very few things about corruption, to be honest, the business level is really not good. In Director Xu, it is also condensing the characteristics and epitome of this era.
Ye Dongping insisted on his point of view, but Director Xu didn't believe it. For a moment, the two of them actually stalemate, and no one could convince anyone.
After all, Director Xu is doing public security work. He is still very experienced in finding breakthroughs. After thinking about it, he said, "Comrade Xiaoye, since you said that these calligraphy and paintings are worth so much money, let me ask you, where do you get these things?"
"This...this..."
Ye Dongping was really stunned when asked. It's not easy to explain. If it's true, it's necessary to involve the old man on the mountain. The police station will ask for verification again. If it's a waste of time, I'm afraid I don't know where those paintings have gone for a long time.
Seeing Ye Dongping's hesitant appearance, Director Xu became more and more proud and said, "You look like an educated person, but there are so many intentions about how to do things?" By the way, we lost something in the people's homes. Can we ignore it? You have to falsely report the amount of lost items..."
"Oh, Director Xu, I didn't lie. What I said is true..."
Hearing that he had made such an evaluation, Ye Dongping didn't know whether to laugh or cry. When he was about to defend himself, his mind suddenly flashed and he quickly said, "Mr. Xu, to be honest, these calligraphy and painting cultural relics are all owned by Mr. Liao Haode, an investor of the acquisition station..."
"Liao Haode, who is he? Why don't you report the case by yourself when you lose something? Director Xu asked strangely.
"Mr. Liao is a Chinese-American. He came back to visit his relatives some time ago, and now he has returned to the United States..."
Ye Dongping was also forced to do nothing. If he didn't borrow Liao Haode's big hat, I'm afraid that Director Xu in front of him would not pay attention to this matter.
"Chinese-American?!"
When Xu Fujie, who was holding the teapot ready to drink water, was stunned when he heard this, put down the teapot and asked, "Are these Chinese-American calligraphy and paintings?"
"Yes, that's right. He put it at the acquisition station for me to keep, but now it's lost..."
Since he has started, Ye Dongping can only hold on now. The consequences of deceiving the government are very serious. Fortunately, Liao Haode has returned to the United States. Even if he wants to prove it from him, it is not realistic in terms of the current situation.
"This... You can specify the name of the lost item. Hey, stop it. You can write it. Well, it's all written here. Yes, it's here..."
Hearing that he was Chinese-American, Xu Fujie's attitude immediately changed, not because he admired foreign countries, but because since the reform and opening up, the country has attached great importance to the introduction of foreign investment.
For those overseas Chinese who go abroad for various reasons in various historical periods, the country has also given a lot of policies to attract them to return to China to start a business and drive the domestic economic development.
During this period, there was an overseas Chinese fever in China. Among other things, in this small county, there is an overseas Chinese store with all kinds of imported goods, from toys to electrical appliances.
But you take the Great Unity to buy it. I'm sorry... I don't sell it. Only the overseas Chinese rolls distributed by the state can be used, which shows that the country attached great importance to returning overseas Chinese at that time.
So after hearing that these calligraphy and paintings belonged to the returned overseas Chinese, Director Xu's attitude immediately turned 180 degrees, because he knew that if this matter was not handled well, it might cause political impact.
Seeing that Ye Dongping wrote all the lost items on the paper, Director Xu stood up and said, "Comrade Xiaoye, the transcript is done. I sent Deputy Director Liu, the most experienced old investigator in the institute, to go back to the investigation site with you. If you have any requirements, you can tell him..." /P>
If he doesn't go to the scene in person, it's not that Director Xu doesn't pay attention to this matter. On the contrary, he has to report to his superior leaders as soon as possible because he attaches too much importance to it.
