Chapter 499 Fang Zhihe

Chen Yu, carrying Polaris, walked into a jewelry store on his own accord.

As soon as he entered, the shopkeeper greeted him enthusiastically.

“What would the two of you like to purchase?”

Before Chen Yu could even sit down, a middle-aged man hurriedly barged in and slammed a large crystal ball onto the ground with force.

The object, like a lump of iron, created a large dent on the floor.

“This is outrageous, boss, how dare you sell fake goods here? Be careful or I’ll tell young master Khaled to shut down your shop.”

The shopkeeper immediately put on an innocent face.

“I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before, and we sell gold and silver jewelry here; it’s impossible that we would sell such crystal balls! Besides, your crystal ball is nothing more than an iron sphere coated with a layer of fluorescent powder on the outside.”

The man instantly became infuriated and pulled out a bill from his body, slapping it onto the table.

“Open your damn eyes and take a good look, isn’t this the receipt your store gave me?”

The shopkeeper’s face still wore a smile as he calmly picked up the bill and then suddenly tore it to shreds.

“You just said you have a bill from our store, may I ask where is the bill?”

The middle-aged man’s eyes widened in disbelief, not expecting the shopkeeper to shamelessly play dumb.

Chen Yu was beginning to find this spectacle unbearable, and as he was about to reason with the shopkeeper, he suddenly received information from the brains of the two men.

It appeared that the shopkeeper was not at fault; the crystal ball had not been sold by him, but was forged by the middle-aged man.

The bill that was presented just now was also fake.

Chen Yu immediately became intrigued and continued to scan the brain information of the middle-aged man.

This man was called Fang Zhihe, an expert forger.

Many years ago, he was deceived by Khaled into coming here and has since been ordered to create fake items for a huge profit.

Khaled also signed a contract with Fang Zhihe, promising him freedom once he forged ten thousand fake items.

However, when Fang Zhihe had fulfilled his contract, Khaled went back on his word and locked Fang Zhihe on the sixth floor, preventing him from leaving.

Having no other choice, Fang Zhihe could only make some fake items and sell them in various shops to scrape together some money.

At first, he made a large sum, but as time passed, the shopkeepers started to realize what was happening and united against him.

Whenever they saw Fang Zhihe come to a store to return an item, they would immediately destroy the bill in his hands.

As the two sides argued incessantly, Chen Yu suddenly rose to his feet and patted Fang Zhihe on the shoulder.

“Mr. Fang, there’s no point in causing a scene here. Even if your counterfeiting skills are high, you’re bound to leave some flaws! I’ve looked at that bill just now and it has at least twenty defects.”

Fang Zhihe looked at Chen Yu with a strange gaze. Continue reading at Novgo

“Sir, you have a keen eye to spot the flaws on my bill! But you seem unfamiliar, not from around here, are you?”

Chen Yu nodded, “I’m a guest who has been invited here. Moreover, Mr. Khaled just lost a match to me in an arena, and I can make any request to him—perhaps even take Mr. Fang away.”

Fang Zhihe instantly became excited; he had been trapped here for many years, always hoping to leave.

“That is truly great, may I know your honored name, sir!”

Chen Yu was about to speak when two fierce-looking fellows suddenly burst into the shop.

“Boss, is the batch of goods we left with you still here? We want to redeem it now.”

The shopkeeper let out a helpless sigh and could only go to the back room to pull out a large trunk.

Chen Yu frowned slightly; he had seen these two men before, seemingly in one of the arena fights.
