Spy Wars: The Female Traitor's Road to Whitewashing

Chapter 228: Take the bait~!

After some painstaking inquiries, Qin Yan finally found out some more detailed information about the businessman surnamed Su's hobbies.

This person doesn't drink alcohol, doesn't like to smoke opium, and never touches gambling. His main focus is on self-cultivation.

It is understandable. After all, it is rare to find someone who cherishes his life so much, so he naturally treasures himself.

But this person has a particularly obsessive hobby, which is ancient paintings.

He would talk about anything related to painting in great detail, and when he came across a top-notch masterpiece, he would not hesitate to spend a large sum of money to buy it.

Qin Yan simply catered to his wishes and had someone spread the word that there was a Buddhist and Taoist painting by Wu Daozi from the Tang Dynasty.

Passed down from our ancestors, guaranteed authentic!

Sure enough, Merchant Su quickly took the bait, but he was very cautious and asked directly how much it cost, intending to buy it remotely without showing up.

Qin Yan had worked so hard for so long just to meet this person, so naturally she refused to agree.

At this time, she had disguised herself as a businessman who came back from Southeast Asia to look for her relatives. Unfortunately, she encountered bandits on the way and many of her valuable goods were stolen.

The other party was blind and did not recognize the value of the painting, so it was preserved.

Now he is short of money and can only reluctantly sell the family heirloom in exchange for travel money.

As for the painting, Qin Yan asked someone to take a photo of it and sent it to Su Shangren first.

The bait has been placed, I don’t believe you won’t take it.

Where does the painting come from?

Naturally, they are top-notch imitation counterfeits purchased from the system mall. They are said to be made using future technology. It is said that even if Wu Daozi came in person, it would be difficult to distinguish the authenticity!

Such a good thing is naturally not cheap, costing a full 999 points.

As long as it's useful, it's all worth it.

Sure enough, after seeing the photos, the other party's attitude was obviously different.

After all, he is a top collector. Even if he cannot paint himself, when it comes to appreciation, his eyes have unknowingly developed a pair of sharp eyes.

Merchant Su was like a pervert who had seen some peerless beauty. He held a magnifying glass and wished he could stick his entire head inside it.

After a long time, he finally withdrew his gaze reluctantly, and the fanaticism in his eyes became even stronger.

"This is absolutely authentic, a treasure among treasures."

As we all know, even the same painter will be in a different state when creating each painting.

Even age, mood and other factors will have an impact.

The painting in front of us was definitely created by Wu Daozi during his heyday. Look at the characters, they are absolutely lifelike, but what is even more amazing is the charm of those characters.

It seems that with just a few strokes, the charm is so perfect, it is absolutely amazing.

There is also a description of the complicated robes, whose sleeves are as smooth as the wind and as elegant as fairies, undoubtedly a top-quality product!

Merchant Su took a look and couldn't help but take another look. He was almost drooling.

However, the people around him were his confidants who had followed him for many years and were already accustomed to these things. They just silently handed over a cup of tea.

"Ahem, ask him what the price is, don't take it without asking too much."

Merchant Su took the teacup and took a sip before speaking slowly, his eyes still glancing at the photo from time to time.

You can tell it's true love. I can't believe it. This is just a photo. If the original work was spread out here, he wouldn't even have time to eat or sleep today.

The subordinate shook his head helplessly, and said with some embarrassment: "He said that this thing is of great significance and must find a suitable buyer. Otherwise, even in the underworld, his ancestors will not forgive him."

Therefore, you have to personally check it and see the buyer.

This is a request that the other party insisted on.

Merchant Su frowned and asked cautiously, "How many people are there in their group? Have you checked their background?"

The butler next to him couldn't help but twitch his mouth, thinking that his master really had paranoid delusions, and even the slightest disturbance would cause him to be endlessly alert.

Of course, this cannot be said. After all, he is eating someone else's food. The housekeeper can only quickly say:

"I checked. At the beginning of the month, there was indeed a ship that sailed from the South Seas. They encountered pirates, and many people lost most of their belongings. They only managed to escape the disaster by relying on the things they had hidden before."

All I can say is that they were lucky enough to have spent money to ward off disasters, and they didn't encounter any truly vicious monsters, who would have thrown them into the sea to feed the fish or taken them back to work as laborers.

Merchant Su nodded, and his doubts were finally dispelled.

However, he still didn't want to come into contact with outsiders, especially those from outside, as he always felt that they were inherently dangerous.

but…

Merchant Su couldn't help glancing at the portrait again, and even swallowed subconsciously, feeling the temptation of a beautiful woman posing for him.

It's really hard!

The butler stood respectfully by the side the whole time, with his head slightly lowered so that his true thoughts could not be seen.

However, what he was thinking in his mind was that the other party promised to "reward" him with a large yellow croaker once the fish was sold, and he was very tempted.

It's not that the butler is disloyal. In his eyes, he is just a thin and weak down-and-out person who is desperate to sell his things. It is said that he doesn't even have enough money to stay in a hotel!

Yesterday, I was thrown out by the restaurant owner and had to squeeze with beggars under the bridge for the whole night.

After this incident, the housekeeper felt that there was nothing wrong with this person.

After a moment's silence, the butler spoke casually and proposed a fairly compromising solution.

After a long struggle between himself and himself, Merchant Su finally compromised, took a deep breath and said:

"Go, let him in. But you must search him thoroughly. It's best to dress him in our clothes and make sure he doesn't have any dangerous items on him."

Seeing that his proposal was adopted, the butler repeatedly assured that there would be absolutely no problem.

Even so, Merchant Su was still worried. He stopped the man and warned him, "Remember, when you trade, bring in a few more people who are agile."

...

That’s right, Qin Yan is the disguised businessman.

As the saying goes, true and false, false and true, the background of the Nanyang businessman who was looking for relatives was all true, but that guy was now hidden by Qin Yan, so she could use someone else's trick so smoothly.

Once the matter is done, Qin Yan will naturally send it away.

Now, her hunting time will begin.

I originally wanted to ask my dad to come, but this guy is too tough, and Qin Yan still has a lot of things to do later, so I can only give him another chance.

The next day, "Qin Yan" was brought into the hotel by the Su family's housekeeper.

Finally, I entered the place I had been longing for!

This time, we went straight into the snake's nest and there was no need to lure it.
