Chapter 43: Half of the Light is in the Darkness

Zhang Yunqi patted his ass and left Songlin Tower.

He came with a humble and humble attitude, but when he left, his eyes were empty.

In the wordless silence, Xiao Lijun watched Zhang Yunqi push the door away, and after a long time, he smoked a Chinese cigarette from the cigarette case, and his expression was indescribable: "I made you worry at the beginning, but you didn't listen, look! ”

Lin Yongqiang, who was sitting opposite the mahjong table, stared at Xiao Lijun's pale face, I don't know why, his stomach was tumbling, but he behaved very well, and immediately stood up and took a lighter to light the Chinese root for Xiao Lijun, and said with a smile: "Director Xiao is right, I was to blame at the beginning, blame me for not investigating this matter carefully." ”

Xiao Lijun felt anxious when he heard this: "I don't understand, is this Zhang Yunqi doing this for an ordinary employee in his factory? I don't care about millions of orders, isn't this a brain disease? Ah! What benefits can he get by tearing his face? Hey! But it's useless to talk about this now, think about what to do next, if Zhang Yunqi really stabs this matter to Mayor Yang Jiarong, we can't hold it back!"

Lin Yongqiang thought for a while and said, "Director Xiao, don't you think he's bluffing?"

Xiao Lijun was stunned: "How do you say it?"

Lin Yongqiang analyzed: "Since Zhang Yunqi wants to report to Yang Jiarong, then why tell us? I think he is testing us, and he is not sure whether Chu Dapeng has forged the lottery ticket at all." ”

Xiao Lijun reacted, and also felt that there was some truth in this, he slapped the table: "That's right! If that's the case, then what should we do next?"

Lin Yongqiang smiled: "I'll talk to him first." ”

Xiao Lijun breathed a sigh of relief, he snuffed out the butt of the cigarette in the ashtray and said: "That's okay, Lao Lin, I advised you not to have such a big appetite at the beginning, the matter has come to this, you have to make more plans." ”

"Director Xiao is right, leave the matter to me, it's not too early, you better relax first and rest early. Lin Yongqiang smiled and got up to leave the box.

Although the current situation is very unclear, and he has a lot of doubts, Zhang Yunqi patted his ass and left, he had to worry about the evening show, so the manager in charge of Songlinlou found an 18-year-old public relations manager, and personally checked it, with long hair hanging down his shoulders, tall figure, extremely white and tender skin, and speaking loudly, it was the tender grass that the old cow loved to gnaw.

After the public relations manager went up, with the rumbling sound of cannon in the sky, Lin Yongqiang left Songlin Tower.

At that time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, there was no one on the street, there were rotten branches and leaves everywhere, and there seemed to be a musty smell in the air, Lin Yongqiang sat in the car, the iconic smile on his face disappeared, he shook down his chair, lit a Chinese, and lay down to look at the messy street, the lights flickered on the spring breeze road in the wind and rain, and the hard skyline was hidden in the lights, until the cigarette butt was hot, he picked up the big brother and dialed the phone of Li Jilin, general manager of Liansheng: "Lao Li." ”

"Lin Yongqiang?" Li Jilin's voice on the other end of the phone was a little surprised, but he quickly reacted: "Something?"

"Please help. ”

"What's the busy?"

"Tell me about Zhang Yunqi. ”

"Do you really want to listen?"

"It's all about time, don't amuse me. ”

"Friend, it's okay to tell you, but I have to remind you in advance, I will report this matter to Zhang Yunqi later, he is my boss after all, and you should know my position. ”

"Clearly, this is not an enemy. ”

"The current situation is very sensitive, before this dinner tonight, in fact, I don't know what is going on, I only learned about it after sending the boss back, Chu Dapeng, if it is really you who did it, as far as my boss is concerned, you will not have a better way except to surrender." ”

Lin Yongqiang's hand was burned by the cigarette butt, and he threw it out of the window and said, "I didn't call you to listen to these words." ”

Li Jilin said: "You want to know his background, right? Don't keep staring at Yang Jiarong, you know that the city bureau is disciplined, this is the hardest and most capable ...... that can kill you."

The rain was getting heavier and heavier.

Thick black clouds rolled across the sky.

The wind is like a knife, and the rain is like a pillar, overwhelming, with the momentum of destroying everything.

I don't know why, Lin Yongqiang drove through the wind and rain on the way to his home, and suddenly remembered that his hometown relatives had been manipulating the crops for half a year, this was the season to catch the harvest, and as soon as the flood came, it was going to suffer.

When he got home, the light was still on in the living room, his wife was mopping the floor, wearing plain home clothes, wearing an apron, looking like a hard-working middle-aged woman at home, she was not very good-looking, her hands and feet were wide, and her skin was slightly dark. ”

"No, I've eaten out. Lin Yongqiang smiled and took the towel: "Wife, you rest early, wait for me to mop it, I'll take a shower first." ”

After taking a hasty bath, when Lin Yongqiang came out of the bathroom, he saw that his son Lin Zihao's bedroom was still lit, walked over and knocked on the door, then pushed the door in, saw Lin Zihao still reviewing his homework at the desk, and said, "Son, I haven't slept yet." ”

Lin Zihao nodded: "There is still a topic that has not been made." ”

Lin Yongqiang walked in and sat on the bed: "By the way, there is something I want to ask you." ”

"What?"

"In your school, there is a student named Zhang Yunqi?"

Lin Zihao was stunned and nodded: "Dad, do you know him?"

Lin Yongqiang smiled, although he noticed that the expression on Lin Zihao's face had changed significantly, but he didn't answer his question, and asked rhetorically: "This Zhang Yunqi and that first ...... meeting"

"Classmates. Dad, are you alright, I'm going to do the question. Lin Zihao's face showed obvious disgust. Children are not good at hiding their emotions. At this time, Lin Yongqiang remembered Zhang Yunqi, the same peers, the city and the scheming, the world is different, what makes him feel even more funny is that his son's short words are full of hostility towards Zhang Yunqi, and now he and Zhang Yunqi also have difficulties that they can't get over, and the reason is from the same person, the first time they met.

When he thought of this, Lin Yongqiang had mixed feelings, especially what Li Jilin said, which made him feel desperate, although he said it very lightly in front of Xiao Lijun, in fact, he didn't know what to do now.

At first, he didn't think that Zhang Yunqi was just a very successful businessman and had nothing to do with him, but tonight's wine made him realize how much energy this young man who was one year younger than his son, and the power behind him, so that this dispute was over before it began.

In fact, Lin Yongqiang is very clear in his heart,As long as this matter is filed,The above is determined to investigate,Chu Dapeng forged lottery tickets incident is not clearly investigated,It is not important,But the sports lottery center of those shady deeds designated to be picked up clean! Many things seem to be seamless,But as long as there is a heart,There are a lot of flaws that can be found,At the moment,He has no way to plug these holes. However, with Zhang Yunqi's energy in the city, there is no difficulty in promoting this matter, he doesn't even need to find Yang Jiarong, as long as he will definitely support his Ji Zhong's words, it is enough to get this matter to the bottom of it. Not to mention that, according to Li Jilin's teachings, Huo Jianzhong, the head of Chengnan District, has an unusual relationship with Zhang Yunqi.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible to cover up this case. Funny,Xiao Lijun also wants to use the Sports Lottery Center, a sales channel of millions of canned food per issue, to blackmail Zhang Yunqi.

When thinking like this, Lin Yongqiang was already a little out of breath, and after a while, he reached out and patted Lin Zihao's shoulder: "Son, I want to say a few words to you." ”

Lin Zihao put down his pen: "Dad, what do you want to say?"

Lin Yongqiang smiled: "You are eighteen years old, you will take the college entrance examination soon, and you can be regarded as an adult, in the future, no matter what happens, don't easily stand on your own position to hate others, because you don't know what others have experienced." The world is full of prejudices, but right and wrong are never absolute. ”

Lin Zihao was stunned, he was still young, and his limited experience was not enough to understand these seemingly simple but profound words, but he could feel his father's abnormality: "Dad, why are you talking so weird tonight, what do you want to tell me?"

"It's nothing, maybe I've drunk some wine and chattered a little, but don't take this kind of truth as a deaf ear, rest early." Lin Yongqiang touched Lin Zihao's hooked head, left the bedroom, and locked the light in his son's room.

The next day, the sky was covered with black clouds.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lin Yongqiang, who had been sleepless all night, got up from bed, his wife went to work, his son went to school, and it was still pouring rain outside the window.

When he was washing, the eldest brother suddenly rang, and as soon as Lin Yongqiang went over to pick it up, he heard Xiao Lijun's voice burning chrysanthemum hair: "Lao Lin, what are you doing?

Lin Yongqiang said: "I didn't hear it, I just got up." ”

Xiao Lijun immediately blew up: "Oh, why did you get up at this time, something big happened! Do you know, Zhang Yunqi ran to the Chengnan Branch to report the case! Huo Jianzhong personally called the incident, and it was no longer possible to stop it. ”

"I know now. Lin Yongqiang was not surprised at all, and it didn't matter, because whether the Chengnan Branch Bureau filed a case or not was not the key, the key was whether Zhang Yunqi could be dealt with, but could it still be done now? Li Jilin's words made him feel desperate, and Xiao Lijun's IQ made him even more desperate!

Xiao Lijun was still chattering on the phone: "Lao Lin, what's wrong with you, why do you suddenly seem to be not caring about this matter at all? Didn't you say that you were talking to Zhang Yun? This is the result of the talks? Or did you not talk at all?"

Lin Yongqiang said: "I haven't talked about it yet." ”

Xiao Lijun was so angry that he fainted: "What the hell are you doing here! Can you still cover this matter with your attitude?" Lao Lin, I can tell you, you made it all up by you, and I didn't touch any of the money you gave me. ”

These words made Lin Yongqiang sick to his stomach, and in the current situation, there was no need for him to be interested in licking Xiao Lijun's ass: "You know whether you move or not." ”

"What's your attitude?"

"You still don't understand my attitude? Director Xiao, over the years, I have provided you with prostitution, gambling and food for your whole family, and for Lazar's son to study abroad, did this money fall from the sky? If I want to go to prison, you are the one who carries it!"

Lin Yongqiang shook the phone. Outside, the rain was pouring down, and it was falling......

I don't know how long it took, he picked up the microphone and dialed a number, and said, "Xiaojun, you come to me." ”

Half an hour later, a tall young man came to his house, dressed in black, and said as soon as he entered the door: "Brother, why did you call me here in such a heavy rain? ”

Lin Yongqiang handed a piece of China to the young man: "Ask you something, the people who won the lottery this year are all foreigners." ”

The young man lit a cigarette and sat down on the sofa: "Yes, you have asked several times, what's wrong?"

Lin Yongqiang nodded: "Let them go as far as possible." ”

The young man was stunned: "Brother, what's the matter? Their names, addresses, and ID numbers are all fake, and they are very safe, and it is impossible to find out." ”

Lin Yongqiang shook his head: "This is the most fatal loophole, all the information of the winner is fake, is it the prize of the ghost?"

The young man became alert: "Brother, is someone investigating this?"

Lin Yongqiang waved his hand, and then, he picked up paper and pen from the coffee table and wrote an address and name: "Xiaojun, you go to Hongshan Lane, where the surname is the first family, you remember the appearance of this girl, five or six years old, she is a demented child, this kind of child loves to run around, her family is doing funerals, there are a lot of people, don't let others notice you." ”

The young man glanced at the note: "Tie her up?"

Lin Yongqiang's face froze: "Don't move, what to do, I'll let you know tonight." ”

"Got it, I'm leaving. Xiaojun picked up the note and was about to turn around and leave, when Lin Yongqiang stopped him again, he turned his head sideways and asked, "Brother, is there anything else?"

Lin Yongqiang didn't make a sound, got up and went into the bedroom, and after a while, he came out with a few stacks of banknotes: "You can take the 50,000 yuan, if you don't receive my call tonight, just leave Jiangchuan directly, change your ID card, don't tell anyone about this, go as far as possible, and never come back." ”

"Brother, what the hell is going on? Is someone messing with us?"

"Let's go, don't ask, don't let anyone know where you are!"

The rain outside the window was pouring down.

The sky was full of black clouds, surging northward like a tide.

Although all the chandeliers are on, there is still an indescribable gloom in the huge living room, Lin Yongqiang is lying on the leather sofa, as if his whole body strength has been drained, the round head clock hanging on the wall, ticking, ruthlessly turning, until it is close to half past four, he got up, changed into clean clothes, left home, and drove to the city No. 1 Middle School, facing the gate of Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fish powder shop.

is in class, there are no customers in the fishmeal shop, the boss is an aunt, extraordinarily enthusiastic, Lin Yongqiang ordered a bowl of Qifengdu fishmeal, the taste is good, very delicious, very appetizing, there is a Shonan people domineering ruthlessness. Unfortunately, this was the first time he had eaten fishmeal with this flavor, and it was probably the last.

At 5:30, the bell rang for school at City No. 1 Middle School.

The student came out with an umbrella, Lin Yongqiang didn't wait long, Zhang Yunqi appeared at the door of Zhang Jiqi Fengdu Fish Powder Shop, and when he saw him, the expression on his face was not surprised: "Boss Lin, you are here." ”

"Let's come out and talk. Lin Yongqiang took out a 100 yuan yuan and put it on the dining table, got up and left the fishmeal shop.

Zhang Yunqi watched his figure get into a Honda Accord on the side of the road, took 98 yuan from the drawer and followed, and handed it to Lin Yongqiang with a smile after getting into the car: "2 yuan a bowl of fish meal, this is change." ”

Lin Yongqiang took the money and said with a smile: "Your fishmeal tastes so good, why don't you open a few more branches?"

Zhang Yunqi said: "There are many things, and the energy is not enough at the moment." ”

Lin Yongqiang said: "I think Boss Zhang is a big business person, and it is normal to have no time to waste on this kind of small project, are you interested in cooperating? I am responsible for contributing money, as long as you have a stake in the technology brand, you don't have to take care of things, make a profit of 55 points, and by the way, promote this Zhang Ji Xifeng Ferry Fish Meal to the whole country?"

Zhang Yunqi said happily: "Boss Lin's idea is quite good, but at the moment, it seems a bit unrealistic to realize the situation of you and me." ”

Lin Yongqiang took out a stick of Zhonghua and handed it to Zhang Yunqi: "Actually, it's all a matter of Boss Zhang's words, Chu Dapeng's problem, we can solve it privately." ”

Zhang Yunqi asked, "How to solve it privately?"

Lin Yongqiang said: "Chu Dapeng's car accident was an accident. ”

Zhang Yunqi asked again: "And then?"

Lin Yongqiang said: "Although you are young, you see things clearly, and you are an understanding person, although you always grasp the fact that Chu Dapeng died in a car accident, in fact, you should know in your heart that I have no reason to kill Chu Dapeng in a car accident." It was just an accident that no one expected. ”

Zhang Yunqi said: "What about the counterfeiting of lottery tickets?"

Lin Yongqiang took two puffs of cigarette and spoke for a long time: "At first, I thought it was Chu Dapeng who forged a fake lottery ticket, and I did receive a fake winning ticket, but now that he is dead, I am not sure." ”

"This 'self-righteousness' of yours is a bit costly. ”

"Do you think it's profitable to sell lottery tickets? Lin Yongqiang threw the cigarette butt: "Do you know,50% of the amount of lottery tickets sold to be returned to lottery players in kind,A small half of this is scraped off your cans,The other 50% is the profit part,35% of which to do the community chest,The state takes 15%,Sports Lottery Center takes 8%,Sports Bureau takes 12%;Another 15%,3% is the cost of the lottery,1% is the management fee of the sports lottery center,I am the lottery seller,Nominally you can get 11% ,But up and down all the way to dot,And,Lottery issuance is also a great risk,Advertising costs、Rent、The cost of hiring workers are fixed,If the lottery sales do not reach a certain amount,I am the contractor to lose money. ”

Lin Yongqiang lit another cigarette: "Take this lottery as an example,The total amount of color sold to me by the City Sports Lottery Center is 30 million,Sold for several days,If all can be sold,I can get 3.3 million,There must be a profit." But in fact, only 8.5 million yuan of lottery tickets were sold, and the money I could receive was only more than 900,000 yuan, excluding the cost of capital, publicity expenses, fixed costs such as rent, and the money to play, I couldn't make a few dollars at all, and I didn't do well, and I had to lose money. That's why Xiao Lijun wants to contract the color business to me,He can get 35+1 income without risk. Of course, there are you, Boss Zhang, although you don't even know which way the gate of the City Sports Lottery Center is facing, but you are a famous young entrepreneur in the city, as long as Yang Jiarong's words, you can take millions of canned food sales without risk. ”

Zhang Yunqi didn't know the doorway in the lottery sales,Patiently listened to Lin Yongqiang's words,Nodding:"How do you want to solve it privately?"

Lin Yongqiang smoked a cigarette and said: "I can return the prize to his family in the first Dapeng, and the canned food sales business of Liansheng and Sports Lottery Center will not be terminated, the price, you will set, if you are interested in cooperating with Zhang Jiqi Fengdu fish meal project, I will quote a price that satisfies you, but the matter of Chu Dapeng, it ends here, what do you think?"

Zhang Yunqi said: "There is temptation and courage, but it is too late, Chu Dapeng's car accident was an accident, but you didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of you." Boss Lin will not understand this truth: the murderer dies, and the wounder will pay for the wound. Boss Lin will not understand this truth. ”

Lin Yongqiang dusted off his cigarette ashes, and a sense of powerlessness crept into his heart: "I'm just an ordinary businessman, I don't have any skills, so I just rely on scraping meat for the people above and drinking some soup by the way, Boss Zhang, you are different, you have a great future, if you really want to stab me to the end, it's not a big deal for me to die, but there are many people who will be restless." ”

"Does this have anything to do with me?"

"Are you going to push people to a dead end?"

"So what?"

"You're still young, don't be too aggressive, rabbits will bite when they're in a hurry. ”

"Then how are you going to bite someone? It's still early, I can give you an analysis, you can't play those tricks on the table, whether it's Xiao Lijun or the people from the Chengnan Branch, I'm afraid I won't have time to care about you, right? Then how else can you bite me? To be honest, I don't care, but you are a sane person, don't fall deeper and deeper, you said that I forced you to a dead end, this is not right, the road is your own choice, and you also have a happy home, a handsome son who will take the college entrance examination soon, Lin Zihao's kid is not bad except for being arrogant, you are a father, you shouldn't want to see him have any accidents, right?"

Zhang Yunqi's voice was very calm, but every sentence was like a knife, and the knife saw blood, which made Lin Yongqiang breathless, and even his voice was hoarse: "With your ability, you should be able to revoke the case, and after my son takes the college entrance examination, I will turn myself in, is it okay?"

"No, you can't. This Saturday early before the Roc is in the ground, I want a result. Zhang Yunqi pushed the door and got out of the car, and his figure disappeared into the pouring rain.
