Chapter 767 The Oil Painting Was Stolen
Ouyang Wan and Shi Feng looked at each other for a moment, and both of them showed a look of surprise. This was a good thing that had a pie falling from the sky, which was equivalent to Zeng Miaomiao taking them to free money. Of course, such a good thing should not be missed.
Shi Feng smiled and said sincerely: "Miaomiao, I really don't know how to thank you. Ouyang and I don't know how to invest, and I don't have many connections. I may not be able to help you. I'm asking us two idle people who are free to invest in your company. I know this is your care for your friends. I won't say anything about thanks, and we will accept your kindness with shamelessness. I don't know how much your investment company is. How much do you think we invest is appropriate?"
Shi Feng looked careless, but he didn't expect to be quite smart. Zeng Miaomiao likes to deal with smart people the most and is very satisfied with Shi Feng and Ouyang Wan's answers.
She brought these two people into the investment company with the purpose of deepening friendship with them. As long as she gets along with Shi Feng and Ouyang Wan, she will naturally be able to integrate into Xiao Yao's circle of friends in the future.
"The newly established investment company has a tentative investment amount of 100 million yuan. If you two have sufficient funds to use, they can account for up to 20% of the shares."
Zeng Miaomiao had already conducted an investigation into the family situation of Shi Feng and Ouyang Wan in advance, knowing that they might not even be able to take out 10 million, so he pretended to be generous and promised 20% of the shares.
Zeng Miaomiao's guess was indeed correct. Shi Feng immediately said: "We are both ordinary families. Even if we sell the goods, we can't get ten or two million in cash. At most, I can cut out millions from my dad. Will this amount of money be too small?"
Zeng Miaomiao wanted to take this opportunity to deepen contact with Shi Feng. She was optimistic about this investment company and did not want to share too many shares. She immediately said: "We young people just started a business and their families don't want to give too much money. This is normal. A few million is not a lot. As long as it is no less than 5%, you two can occupy a board seat. I think the amount of shares is not important. The important thing is to participate and get more contacts in the future."
Worried that Shi Feng was disgusting that he had too few shares, Zeng Miaomiao specifically mentioned it.
Shi Feng is a person who values feelings. He thinks this investment opportunity is rare. It would be even better if he could also bring other friends into the company. So he asked tentatively: "Bao Hu and they also have some spare money in their hands. Can they also participate?"
The friend Xiao Yao truly recognized was Shi Feng alone. Bao Huhe and others only had the opportunity to meet Xiao Yao because of Shi Feng. Zeng Miaomiao knew very well that she only needed to make friends with Shi Feng and Ouyang Wan. As for Bao Huhe and others, it was difficult for her to draw it into her circle of friends in a short period of time.
She and Shi Feng and Ouyang Wan are not close. After all, they have known each other for a short time, so she politely refused: "If an investment company wants to make money, we cannot only have three shareholders. We must win over some of our particularly energetic friends, so I must still divide the shares in my hands. As for how much to divide, it is hard to say for the time being. If there are more opportunities to make money in the future, I will definitely not forget Bao Hu and them."
"Then I'll say thank you for them first. Their requirements are not high, just make some money. If you have such an opportunity to make small money in the future, just think about them."
Shi Feng was asking tentatively, so he would not force it. It would be quite good if Zeng Miaomiao could give such an answer.
Everyone is a good friend, and the atmosphere of karaokes is already very warm. In addition, everyone is in a good mood today, so it was not until after 1:00 in the morning that everyone dispersed.
On the morning of the second day, the ringtone of the cell phone beside his ear rang, and Shi Feng opened his eyes in a daze.
"Shifeng, have you got up now? Come to our new house quickly. Did you not close the door yesterday? A thief entered our house! Things were thrown all over the floor, messy, and some things were broken." Ouyang Wan's voice was loud, and her tone was full of anxiety.
Shi Feng's confused mind suddenly woke up, "I was the last one to go out yesterday. I remember it very clearly. I must have closed the door."
"Since you have closed the door, why are you still recruiting thieves? I'm watching the lock on the door be good and it has not been destroyed!"
"Don't talk about the door locks first. Let's see what's missing in the house?" Shi Feng's most concerned about now is whether there are any losses.
Ouyang Wan did not hang up the phone, and while checking, she said, "The refrigerator, TV, and washing machines are all... Oh, the high-end desktop computer you specially use to play games has not been lost."
"Are you stupid? How much money can these things be worth? Hurry up and see if the gifts Xiao Yao and the others gave me yesterday are still there?" Shi Feng's tone was a little impatient.
"Yes, why did I forget the gifts I received yesterday? Fortunately, the Patek Philippe watch that Zeng Miaomiao gave us both was worn on our wrists at that time. If these two watches were lost, I would definitely cry to death." Ouyang Wan patted her chest, feeling a little scared.
Immediately afterwards, she said, "My cosmetics and leather bags are there too."
After a while, she suddenly exclaimed: "The purple clay teapot from Zhuangyan, the Sanyang Kaitai jade ornaments from Wuen, and the green water ghost from Baohuhe. I clearly remember that I put it on the ancient shelf, why can't I find it? Did you put these gifts away?"
"These gifts are on the antique shelf, and I didn't move at all. If there is no more on it, it will be stolen by a thief!" Shi Feng felt his chest was blocked and his breathing was not smooth, so he felt very regretful. If he had carefully yesterday and put away all these precious gifts, he might not have been stolen even if the thief entered the house.
Although the gifts given by Wu En and others are quite precious, they are nothing compared to those given by Xiao Yao and Zeng Miaomiao. As long as the gifts given by Zeng Miaomiao and Xiao Yao are not lost, such losses can still be afforded.
"Look at the oil painting Xiao Yao gave me is still there?" After saying this, Shi Feng's heart pounded and he couldn't help but speed up a lot.
"I didn't seem to see it. Where did you put it yesterday?"
Shi Feng's eyes suddenly turned red, and his tone involuntarily increased by three 8 degrees. "Just poked the wall on the back of the sofa, you should be able to see it at a glance. Take a look at it, is it still there?"
Ouyang Wan was in a bad mood. When she heard Shi Feng's tone was bad, she was very angry and said in anger: "Why are you yelling at me? Am I looking for it? If I didn't see it, I didn't see it. I wasn't blind. If I can't see it, I'm stolen by a thief!"
"It's over, it's over! You said that this thief was not good at stealing, why did he steal this painting? Wait for me and try not to destroy the scene. I'll go there immediately." After hanging up the phone in a hurry, Shi Feng ran out the door in a hurry.
Shi Feng was anxious and rushed two red lights along the way. It usually took half an hour to drive, but this time it was less than 20 minutes.
After jogging up the stairs, Shi Feng rushed into the house panting. After entering the door, he didn't bother to check other items. His red eyes quickly looked at the corners of the living room. The oil painting Xiao Yao gave him was really gone!
He went to various rooms without giving up and looked around, but still couldn't see any trace of the oil paintings.
Shi Feng sat on the ground in the living room and said as if he was betrayed: "How is this good? When I saw Xiao Yao, why did I explain to him? He gave me such a precious oil painting, but I lost it!"
While talking, he slapped himself twice in the face.
Ouyang Wan squatted down in front of Shi Feng, very puzzled by his behavior, and asked, "What are you doing? You are just a painting? Although I am sorry for Xiao Yao's intentions, you are not like this, right? The gifts given by Wu En and others are worth hundreds of thousands of yuan in total, but I didn't see how sad you are. Is it the same for a painting?"
"What do you know? You! All the gifts given by Wuen and the others, including the two watches given by Zeng Miaomiao, are not as good as Xiao Yao's painting!"
"Although Xiao Yao is the president of Xiaoyao Association and has a high social status, he is also your old classmate after all, and I think his relationship with you is quite real. You didn't deliberately lose his paintings. Can he still make things difficult for you?" Ouyang Wan felt that Shi Feng's performance seemed too exaggerated.
"You know what a fool! Do you know how much his painting is worth? The Louvre collected one of his oil paintings and gave him 60 million, or US dollars!" Shi Feng shouted at the top of his voice.
"This is true, not a joke?"
"Do you think I'm kidding now?"
Ouyang Wan knew Shi Feng so well. His angry look was indeed not like a joke, but this fact was too unbelievable. She felt a little confused.
"Isn't Xiao Yao a big shot in the business world? Why is his oil painting worth so much? Why do I feel so unreal?"
"Xiao Yao is not only a business tycoon, he is also a lecturer at the Han University Academy of Fine Arts. He is a famous artist in the world. He has a painting worth tens of millions of dollars, and some people rob him. However, his works are too few and there are too many people who want to collect them, so he doesn't know where to buy it." Shi Feng simply lay flat on the floor, looking like he was desperate.
Although it is difficult to believe that this is the truth, she knew that Shi Feng would definitely not tell stories and tease her at such a time. Ouyang Wan thought for a while and said, "What's the use of you who are going to die here? Let's report the case quickly. The current detection methods are so powerful, maybe this painting can be recovered."
"Report the case, report it quickly. Xiao Yao's oil paintings are so valuable. This is considered a major theft case, right? The police will definitely organize elite soldiers to focus on solving such major cases." Thinking of the possibility of recovering them, Shi Feng suddenly felt energetic and resurrected with full blood.
After the call was connected, Shi Feng said quickly: "Our family was stolen by a thief last night and lost several hundred million. I'm reporting the case now, please send someone as soon as possible."
"Are you sure you have lost several hundred million? I would like to remind you that you have to bear the responsibility for calling a fake police officer."
"I am willing to be responsible for what I have said. There are indeed hundreds of millions of losses. Please send someone as soon as possible."
"Okay, please inform us of the detailed address..."
The police arrived very quickly, less than a quarter of an hour, and seven or eight policemen rushed in.
A middle-aged policeman in the lead first looked around after entering the door, and then introduced himself: "Hello sir, I am Fang Chao, the leader of the third group of the Municipal Bureau of Serious Crimes. This is my work permit."
Shi Feng took a quick look and said, "My things in my house must have been stolen last night. It's not long. Please make sure to solve the case, please give it to you!"
"Sir, don't worry, it is our responsibility to protect the people's property. We will definitely do our best. You calm down first, and then we will take a record. You will tell the details of the matter in detail, and try to be more meticulous." Fang Chao's tone was not slow and calm, and Shi Feng calmed down a lot after hearing it.
After hearing Shi Feng tell the story, Fang Chao was seriously skeptical about the oil painting worth tens of millions of dollars he mentioned, and asked again: "You said that oil painting is worth tens of millions of dollars. Is there any evidence? The value of the artwork is difficult to define. It is not that you say how much it costs. The artwork must be valued by experts before we can recognize it."
"If you want evidence, the author of this painting is in our Qingcheng. The author himself should be enough to prove it?" Shi Feng asked with confidence.
"The author himself should be able to prove the authenticity of the work, but I really can't think of it. Any master in our country whose works are worth tens of millions of US dollars. Can you tell me his name?" Fang Chao regretted that he brought a large group of people over with great fanfare. He didn't believe Shi Feng's words at all.
"The author is my classmate, and his name is Xiao Yao."
"Your classmate? Your classmate should be in his 20s. How could such a young person be an art master? I must warn you that calling a fake police requires corresponding responsibility. You'd better think clearly before talking about it!" Fang Chao had no smile on his face, and his tone was very serious.
Shi Feng knew that no matter how many explanations were, it would be useless. He simply said: "If you don't believe it, you can search on Baidu. Xiao is Xiaoyue Xiao and Yao is Xiaoyao Yao."
Fang Chao entered the word Xiao Yao in Baidu, and a large number of related entries suddenly appeared.
