Chapter 500: Real and Fake, True and False

Chapter 500: Real and Fake, True and False
The next day at noon, at the Original Stone Workshop.
Kong Lianteng held a photo and sat in a corner, comparing it to every passerby.
None of the people under his hand looked like Jiang Ce, and even those who looked a little like him knew nothing about the jewelry industry.
No choice, have to go out and look for one.
像原石坊这里的人，基本都是对原石多多少少了解一点的，如果能够从这里找到一个跟江策长得有几分相似的，到时候谈好价格就能上门诈骗了。
```htmlHe just compared them one by one, waiting one by one.
The sun rose three poles.
A man walked in, with sharp edges, a burly figure, and occasionally wandering around in various shops.```
It's not someone else, but Jiang Ce.
Although he's planning to quit, he hasn't figured out how to approach Qi Zhen about it.
So he's decided to give Qi Zhen a gift and bring up the resignation when he's happy about the gift.
Today he came to the Raw Stone Workshop to select some top-quality raw stones to buy as gifts for Qi Zhen, which will facilitate what he wants to say later.
Jiang Cedian looked around and walked past Kong Lianteng.
Kong Lianteng held up the photo and instantly his eyes lit up.
Oh my god, it's too alike!
He quickly stood up and walked over, blocking Jiang Ce's path. He compared each feature to the ones in the photo - eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth - it was like they were cut from the same mold.
Kong Lianteng couldn't close his mouth because he was so happy.
Jiang Ce, on the other hand, looked confused. This person suddenly appeared and stared at him without saying a word, while laughing, which made him feel weirdly nauseous.
He asked, "What are you doing?"
Kong Lianteng didn't answer but asked back, "Young man, how much do you know about raw stones?"
Jiang Ce said, "I don't know much, only some basic things."
This is the truth.
Kong Lianteng nodded his head, saying that having a basic understanding of things was enough, as well as having a certain knowledge reserve of raw stones. Combined with this face that is good enough to pass off as real, this person is the best partner in committing fraud.
```htmlNext step is to see if this person is willing to board the ship.
Kong Lianteng asked, "Young man, do you know Jiang Ce?"
Jiang Ce frowned, wondering if this person was intentional or unintentional?```
Based on the appearance of the other person, there is a strong feeling of dislike. Although people cannot be judged by their appearance, there is an old saying: "looks can be deceiving."
The more someone looks like this, the more cautious one should be.
Jiang Ce smiled and answered, "I am Jiang Ce, the purchasing manager of Hengxing Jewelry. He is well-known in the industry and everyone in this business knows him."
Kong Lianteng nodded, "Do you know that you look a lot like him?"
Jiang Ce agreed, "There is some resemblance, my friends often joke about it; but why are you telling me this, friend?"
Kong Lianteng laughed, "I'm telling you all this because I want to introduce you to a deal that will make you rich! If you're willing to do it, I'll give you one million yuan after it's done."
One million yuan?
This kind of thing doesn't sound like a good deal at first listen.
Jiang Ce deliberately made a very surprised expression, "What good thing?"
Kong Lianteng looked around, "There are too many people here, let's go to a restaurant outside and book a private room to sit down and talk slowly."
"Go!"
Then, Jiang Ce and Kong Lianteng went to a restaurant, entered a private room and ordered dishes.
Kong Lianteng asked, "What's your name?"
Jiang Ce thought for a moment and said, "My name is Jiang Shu."
"Well, Jiang buddy, I have a big deal here. I just told you about it. After it's done, I'll give you a share of one million. It depends on whether you want to do it or not."
Jiang Ce asked, "Is there such a good thing in the world? Could it be a murder or arson?"
"Tsk, where are you thinking? It's absolutely safe, no trouble at all."
"Oh? That sounds interesting, tell me more."
"I want you to pretend to be someone for me," Kong Lianteng whispered.
“Who?”
"Jiang Ce!"
"Cough cough" Jiang Ce almost laughed out loud. He had to pretend to be himself? Hehe, he had lived for more than twenty years and this was the first time he had encountered such an interesting situation.
He asked: "What exactly do we need to do?"
Kong Lianteng said: "It's very simple. You will pretend to be Jiang Ce and I will be your assistant. Then, the two of us will go to Changhe Jewelry to sign a contract. You can have whatever you want to eat or drink. You will take all the money from the contract, and I won't ask for a penny."
```html“Then, you take the person with the long hair and jewelry to pick out rough stones for purchase.”
“You don't even have to pick carefully, just randomly select, make them spend a lot of money on procurement, and ruin Longhe Jewelry; then you and I will retreat.”```
江策一听，不乐意的说道：“这不是害人吗？人家会放过咱们吗？”
孔连腾哈哈大笑，“蒋老弟你是不是傻？你是假装江策去骗吃骗喝、签合同、整人家；等到他们反应过来的时候，我们早就跑了；他们只会认为是江策的错，所有的责任都由江策一人承担，你我又有什么麻烦呢？”
Jiang Ce suddenly realized, "So you mean we get the benefits but I'll take the blame!"
"Exactly!"
"What a great idea! Jiang Ce will just be sitting at home, and the blame will be dropped on his head out of nowhere. He won't even know why he suddenly became 'stinky'."
Kong Lianteng continued, "Brother Jiang, not only will you get all expenses paid and contract money, but I will also give you a bonus of one million yuan if we succeed. Then you can buy a ticket and go to another city, who can find you?"
Pausing for a moment, he continued, "Let that Jiang Ce suffer in silence, unable to express his bitterness!"
The two looked at each other and smiled in agreement.
"Brilliant, truly brilliant."
"Cheers!"
二人碰了碰杯子，开怀大笑，一边吃一边接着聊，孔连腾把剩下的计划一五一十的全部都告诉了江策。
After finishing a meal, it's time to get to work.
孔连腾先是给丁紫玉打了电话：“丁大小姐，我这边的人已经安排好了，计划全部都说的明明白白的了，你那边准备的怎么样了？”
丁紫玉说道：“放心，我已经跟长和珠宝的老总——袁泰都说好了，下午江策会过去签合同。那个傻子还对我千恩万谢了！”

Kong Lianteng asked, "Miss Ding, you must be careful this afternoon and not let Yuan Tai become suspicious."
"Don't worry, I am Jiang Ce's older sister. If I say the person you brought is Jiang Ce, then it must be Jiang Ce. Yuan Tai won't suspect. But I also want to remind you that the person you find must be reliable, at least somewhat similar in appearance, and know a little about the original stone. Don't bring someone too unlike him. I might not even be able to protect you then."

```
Kong Lianteng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I've found someone who will definitely meet your expectations. When you meet him, you'll be pleasantly surprised."
"Okay, that's great. I'll see you this afternoon."
"See you in the afternoon."
After hanging up the phone, Ding Ziyu was extremely pleased and paced around the office.
"Jiang Ce, oh Jiang Ce, watch as I make you pay!"
Ding Hongyao on the side shook his head with a bitter smile, "What's the point of doing this? At most, it will only tarnish Jiang Ce's reputation, but it won't have any actual impact on him. Moreover, with Jiang Ce's abilities, I believe the truth will soon come to light."
Ding Ziyu snorted, "I know this won't cause any serious harm to Jiang Ce's health, but I just enjoy doing it! I want to use this method to make him sick for a while, even if he has the ability to uncover the truth, it must have been after being harassed and frustrated by numerous companies."
"As long as Jiang Ce is unhappy, I am happy."
"It doesn't matter if it doesn't cause much harm, as long as I can disgust him and make him angry, I'll win back a bit."
Hearing this, Ding Hongyao sighed helplessly.
This is called: Better to offend gentlemen than to offend villains, and better to offend villains than to offend women.
However, Ding Hongyao still feels uneasy and reminds: "You can create trouble, but you still have to be careful of Jiang Ce. That kid has many tricks, even I have fallen into his hands several times. You can defame him, but remember to stop when it is enough, don't go too far."
"If you're not careful, not only will you not make Jiang Ce look bad, but you'll also make yourself look bad."
"Brother, why are you always speaking up for Jiang Ce? Do you realize that what you just said can affect morale and shake the army's determination? If this were ancient times, you'd be beheaded!"
Is he still getting his head cut off?
Ding Hongyao shrugged and didn't say anything more.
丁紫玉看了看时间，“差不多了，我该出发了，哥，跟我一起去长和珠宝吧，也算是帮我镇镇场子，同时也去看看戏，热闹热闹。”
闲着也是闲着，况且，丁红耀心里头也对江策恨之入骨。
If there is a chance to see Jiang Ce being disgraced, he would be very willing to go and take a look.
"Okay, I will accompany you to have some fun."
"Let's go."
The two siblings put on their coats and left the company. Ding Hongyao drove the car and they went to Chow Sang Sang Jewelry.
On the other side, Kong Lianteng set off with his "little brother". Along the way, Kong Lianteng was coaching "Jiang Shu" on how to impersonate Jiang Ce and how to deal with the questioning of the Chow Sang Sang Jewelry boss.
Every detail has been carefully planned in advance.
Jiang Ce was trying his best to deal with everything, while secretly laughing to himself. He had never experienced anything so absurd and amusing in his life. This afternoon would surely be one he would never forget.
At the same time, the owner of Chow Tai Fook Jewelry, Yuan Tai, had already prepared the contract that needed to be signed, checked it repeatedly and meticulously.
Then, he had his secretary lead the whole company to form a long queue outside, waiting to welcome the guests.
Yuan Tai is both nervous and happy.
Previously, he had not signed a contract with Jiang Ce, which fell behind other jewelry companies. One wrong step led to another, and now his company is on the verge of collapse. However, he unexpectedly learned from Ding Ziyu that Jiang Ce is willing to sign a contract with him.
Overjoyed!
Dressed in a suit and tie, Yuan Taixi stood at the company entrance eagerly looking into the distance, anticipating Jiang Ce's arrival.
