Chapter 158: It's better to rely on others than on yourself

The middle-aged man walked into the hall with his nose covered, and swept away the old, weak, sick and disabled in this room. The eyes of both are full of question marks: Who is the boss?

"Please take a seat!" Wu Tao said, pointing to the stool in front of him.

"Are you his boss?" the middle-aged man pointed at Song Zhuang with a look of disbelief.

"That's right. Wu Tao nodded, "I'm Wu Tao, presiding over the affairs of the Zhao family today." ”

"Just you, why?"

"Why don't you go back and inquire?" Wu Tao raised his eyebrows, "Especially the director of the Health Bureau behind you, he may be able to inquire more about me." ”

Words are in the way.

The middle-aged man, when he heard that Wu Tao could point out his background in one word, he suddenly felt that it was not simple.

Ordinary children of such an age, seeing this situation, it is good to be so scared that they don't pee their pants.

Not to mention, to be able to sit here so calmly.

What's more, he has a bodyguard who can fight so well, it must not be simple.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man also sat down.

"I am Boss Yang's person, Zhao Dafu owes more than 23,000 yuan to the goods, and he will pay it off before the deadline. Otherwise, I will give him Zhao Dafu an arm!"

"IOU?" Wu Tao stretched out his hand.

The middle-aged man took out a piece of paper from his arms, shook his right hand, and lit it up in front of Wu Tao.

"23,880 yuan, Boss Yang?" Wu Tao read out, looking at Zhao Dafu inquiringly.

Zhao Dafu nodded, his expression was confused, and he recognized it.

"Since Zhao Dafu admits this account, he will come tomorrow morning to get it. ”

"Why did you bluff me and send me away with a word?" the middle-aged man was also stunned.

"Even if you don't believe me, you won't get a penny. At most, they will beat up the people here again, and then go to the public security bureau. Wu Tao said slowly: "But this time with me, I can make the director behind you lose his official hat, and you can't get a penny, do you believe it or not?"

The middle-aged man is a dignified, except for the threat element, this statement is indeed true.

"That's not good, at least you have to sign me, saying that you recognize this account, and I can leave! ”

"I can sign this for you, but only as a guarantor. The one who really has the ability to repay the debt is her. Wu Tao pointed at Zhao Lidao.

"Just a girl?" the middle-aged man pouted.

"It doesn't matter if you believe it or not, at most you'll know tomorrow morning. ”

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth when he heard this, "Okay, I'll believe you again!"

After receiving the IOU, Wu Tao signed the guarantor's name without saying a word, and then handed the pen and paper to Zhao Li, looking at her with encouragement.

Zhao Li took the pen and paper, pressed it on her leg, and carefully signed her name one stroke at a time.

After signing, Wu Tao raised the IOU in his hand, "If you want to get the money tomorrow, I have one more condition." ”

"You ......" the middle-aged man thought about it, and it was useless to get angry, "Okay, you say." ”

"Bring back the things you moved from here as they were!!Otherwise, don't blame me for deducting the arrears one by one!" Wu Tao finished word by word, "This is not too much, right?"

After a pause, he said, "Even if you think it's too much, it doesn't matter, at least you have a night to think about it." ”

The middle-aged man took the IOU, snorted, and turned to leave.

This was talked about four times.

Four large and small arrears, totaling more than 46,000 yuan.

Zhao Li took it all down, and Wu Tao made a guarantee.

After all this, Zhao Dafu, who had been holding back for more than half an hour, finally couldn't muster it anymore, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead and said, "Xiaoli, where did she get so much money to pay off the debt?"

Peng Xiaojuan's mind turned shrewdly, "Could it be Xiaoli's painting that sold for a lot of money?"

"Auntie, it's still your brain. Wu Tao praised with a smile, "I handled this matter, and Zhao Li didn't know about it." ”

"Actually, I'm here today, first, for this matter, and secondly, to continue the appointment with her. ”

The two of them were stunned when they heard it, can their daughter's paintings be sold for money?

It's like pie in the sky, no different.

Zhao Dafu still couldn't believe it: "What kind of painting is it and how much did it sell?"

Wu Tao glanced at Zhao Li and motioned for her to speak by herself.

Zhao Li straightened her sideburns and said, "Some time ago, he made two wall calendars and used the paintings I painted. ”

"Used on a wall calendar?" the two of them stared at each other with a look of disappointment: "How much money can you earn?"

Originally, they thought that their daughter's paintings had been bought by buyers who knew the goods like those masters.

I didn't expect it to be used as an illustration by a wall calendar, and this kind of small fight can also make money?

It doesn't sound reliable.

Wu Tao said casually: "Those two wall calendars are selling well." According to the previous commission agreement, Zhao Li can get about 60,000 yuan. ”

The two of them stood up on the ground and said in unison: "How much? 60,000 yuan?"

"That's right, 60,000!" Wu Tao nodded with a smile, "Because there is too much money, it is inconvenient for me to carry it, so I didn't bring it today." Since this situation is encountered at home, it will be taken out early tomorrow morning. ”

Peng Xiaojuan immediately excitedly took her eldest daughter's hand and said, "Xiaoli, you really saved your parents and our family!"

Zhao Dafu was also indescribably excited, and his whole puffy face was rosy.

However, Wu Tao's words have not yet been finished.

"So Uncle Zhao, being a white-collar worker in college is not the only way out. If Zhao Li can do a good job in painting, she will earn no worse money in the future than white-collar workers in big cities!"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Zhao Dafu rubbed his hands and said busily.

"Also, it's better to rely on yourself than on others. Zhao Li has been much smarter than you from the beginning in dealing with the marriage contract. Isn't it?" Wu Tao continued.

Although the words are not heavy, the words can be typed on Zhao Dafu's heart.

When he went to the sea to do business, he was used to taking the door and taking shortcuts, and he developed this habit even in all aspects of doing things.

Including marrying a daughter and marrying a family, I can't help but have to be clever to maximize my interests.

As a result, not only did it almost destroy the family, but it also broke her daughter's heart.

At least my daughter used to be such a cheerful and lively girl, but now she has become a lot more reticent and has lost a lot of weight......

Thinking of this, Zhao Dafu's heart throbbed.

Then he snapped and jerked himself hard. Frightened, Peng Xiaojuan hurriedly stopped him and said, "What are you crazy about?

Zhao Dafu glanced at Zhao Li with guilt on his face, and walked into the courtyard silently. Picking up the scattered sketches one by one, carefully exhibiting and commenting, and sorting them out......

Peng Xiaojuan ignored her husband's actions, thanked Zhao Li, pulled Wu Tao again, and said with tears in her eyes: "Thank you for coming today! Auntie, thank you for your support and help, thank you......"
