Chapter 1 Ma Xiangyang's debts
April is a good time, not cold, slightly hot, everything grows, people after a New Year's rest, it is also full of energy, this city is a sunrise atmosphere, except for my industry.
There's no way, my industry is already unpopular, and when others are busy, I'm even more lonely.
What do I do, you ask?
Antiques.
Now it is estimated that everyone will understand that our industry has always had a saying that we will not open for three years and will be open for three years, which shows that the business is deserted. In fact, the main reason is that the audience is too small, and it is even more difficult for me to have a weak foundation and can't collect things, so I can only build bridges and pull lines to earn an intermediary fee. But it's hard to get through, and it's better than going to work, so I'm quite comfortable.
This is all off-topic, I say this just to let everyone know that I should have lived such an ordinary life, if it weren't for the unpredictable world.
I have two brothers, that is when I first arrived in Linzhou, the three of them met together by chance, they were all poor, they were like-minded with each other, and they supported each other to the present, so they simply recognized the righteous brothers. My two brothers, the second one is hard-hearted, and people dare to fight, more than ten years down, but also laid a career, and now they are doing real estate, and the third one, dead eyes, follow me to help in the store.
I'm a person, it can be said that I have no ambitions, and my life is not short, I am very satisfied, I originally thought that this comfortable life would not change, but I ignored a variable.
That is the second in our family to do real estate, Ma Xiangyang.
The second child has indeed made some money in real estate over the years, but there is a reason for making money, and any project is tens of millions of dollars walking around, and his hands are full of oil. It's just that profits come from such a large base, and things also come from such a large base.
There is no business on this day, I fought the landlord for a day, the third deducted the mobile phone for a day, when the sky was dark, the second child suddenly ran to the store, and bought good wine and meat, I and the third child was bored, I was overjoyed to see it, and hurriedly closed the store door, and opened the table to open the whole, but this wine was not smooth, I lost the topic of no one answered, the atmosphere was not embarrassing, I was originally straight, so I drank a few glasses I really couldn't help it, the wine glass knocked on the table, I stared at the second child and did not say anything.
This long silence was too unnatural, the third child also put the chopsticks, only the second child was still drinking by himself, and the third child kicked him twice, and he came back to his senses, but he still didn't speak, and the expression on his face was cloudy.
I lit two cigarettes and handed one over, "Second brother, this is an accident, don't care about the size, let's talk about it first, the younger brothers carry it together, and the older ones have someone in the family to watch, there is no road that cannot be crossed, and there is no hurdle that cannot be overcome." ”
I said this as early as when I kowtowed, the three brothers discussed, now is not the old society, it is unrealistic to say life and death, when something really happens, the important thing is to worry about the future, after all, there is an old saying that is good, stay in the green mountains, do not worry about no firewood.
The second child took a puff of his cigarette, "Brother Wu, there was an accident at the construction site, it was going to be sealed, and the money was put in." ”
I frowned, but wasn't too surprised, it was to be expected, it just depends on luck sooner or later.
"How much?"
"More than four million. ”
I was silent for a while, and said, "This hole is too big, the three of us brothers can't fill it, look back and see how the result is handled, after all, if you don't steal or rob, we just add to the head if something happens at the construction site, and we can't sit for long when we go in, and I and Xiaosan are outside to help the family, and there is nothing to worry about, okay, I won't mention this matter tonight, drink!"
I lifted the wine glass, but the second child didn't raise a glass, I looked at his desire to speak and stopped, my heart sank, and my face was a little gloomy, this second child, the words were not finished.
"Brother Wu, this money is not owed to the bank, it is to Brother Chalong, he wants to meet you. ”
I put the wine glass on the table heavily, stared at the second child, and my tone became cold, "Ma second child, are you confused? Why don't I let the third child follow you to the construction site? I know that you make money on the construction site, and I also know that you are afraid that it will be difficult for you to be good, as a brother, you can't be trapped in a quagmire." I'm not surprised that something happened to you, but how could you owe Wang Lung money? I have never lived with him, so why should he see me? Ma Lao Er, are you going to put me in the fire pit a little?"
Why am I so angry, there is a reason, Brother Long, the second brother in his mouth, is quite famous in our place, is the president of the local Dajiang Industrial Co., Ltd., the big name Wang Long, nicknamed Guojiang Dragon on the road, the underground king of Linzhou in the past, and later successfully washed white, now the black and white are very open, and it is the **** of Linzhou, what is more than 4 million in him, just such a big Buddha, where is our brother can afford it, if you are not careful, it will be a catastrophe.
The second child was really angry when he saw that I was moved, and he was also a little panicked, so he hurriedly explained, "Brother Wu, don't be angry, this is such a situation, I went back to the company to arrange dinner, and the eldest boss introduced Brother Long to come over to contract labor, Brother Long is rich and generous, and he directly agreed to advance funds until completion." As soon as I saw that I didn't need the money, I repaid the bank loan, after all, a month's interest is a lot of money. Who knows that this happened, and the money in the bank couldn't come out, otherwise, I would definitely owe the bank Wang Long, but when it comes to why Brother Long wants to see you, I really don't know what's going on, I mentioned that we worship the matter, but Brother Wu, you are an outsider, and you will definitely not be able to involve you. ”
After listening to the second child's explanation, I stared at him for a while, and didn't speak for a long time. I can trust my own brother, but as the second brother said, I am an outsider, and I will not be involved because of the second child's words, this matter must have a deeper meaning, I am faintly uneasy in my heart, and I feel that it should not be, thinking about it is becoming more and more chaotic in my heart, I simply broke the jar and broke it, I slapped the table and said, "Drink! Longtan Tiger's Den will go to him tomorrow, San'er, hang up the sign that is temporarily closed for business, and put his big things until tomorrow!"
"Okay!"
After saying this, the second child's mood was also relaxed, and the two of them directly drank and fainted in the store for the night.
When I woke up, it was already three poles in the morning, and a few of us brothers went out to eat some breakfast, and then drove to the head office of Dajiang Industrial. Don't look at the arrogance that I said yesterday, when it was time to leave today, the uneasiness of those two people was almost written on their faces. To be honest, I'm in a similar mood, but to be a big brother, I always have to calm down and not take the lead in messing up.
When I arrived at the destination, parked the car, and was about to leave, I stopped again, thought about it, and said to Xiao San, "Xiao San, since he Wang Lung didn't mention you, don't go up, you just wait here, wait for an hour and send me a message, if you don't reply or the tone of the reply is not like mine, you can call the police immediately." ”
As soon as I said this, the second child also became nervous, "Brother Wu, is it so serious, no, let's not go, I'd better turn myself in and go to court to solve it." ”
I smiled and patted the second child on the shoulder, "No, after all, it is a society governed by the rule of law, let's pay more attention to it, there is no harm." ”
After speaking, I walked to the building with my second child, and after explaining our intentions, the front desk led us to the top floor outside the general manager's office.
The time will come, I glanced at my second child and pushed open the door of the office.
As soon as I entered the office, I habitually looked around my surroundings. Different from the general corporate CEO's office of the large board table full curtain wall pattern, this room is a bit of the Republic of China period of the furnishings, there are a few young people sitting on the sofa in the left corner of the door playing with mobile phones, the desk is placed in a nearly two-meter Jin Si Nan tea table, inside and outside the two people sit in one or two, one of the two people sitting outside, there is a cold face behind a beautiful woman.
Sitting on the main seat must be Wang Long, he saw the two of us coming over, put down the teapot in his hand, stood up and stretched out his hand and smiled, "Isn't this a pony, sit down quickly, the newly soaked mountain clouds, taste it." “
Outside the tea table, there were four seats, the two people sat in the two positions on the left, I sat next to the beautiful woman standing behind me, and the second sat on the far right. As soon as I sat down, Wang Lung sent two cups of tea over, I didn't have anything to be polite about, and I also liked this smell, I couldn't help but drink it all up, put down the cup, and suddenly sighed a little in my heart, rich people are good, this tea, I'm afraid it doesn't cost tens of thousands of catties, not a person of Wang Lung's identity, and a few people consume it.
People who can mix in a high position, I don't dare to say that all of them have unique skills, but in the eyes of people, they are a little unique, I just have a trace of ideas, Wang Lung smiled at me, and said, "Boss Wu is worthy of being an expert, since you like it, you might as well bring it when you leave." “
I hurriedly thanked him, but Wang Lung waved his hand, stopped talking, and began to drink tea by himself. After waiting for a while, no one spoke, so I thought about getting down to business, after all, no matter what, there was still a solution.
I finished my cup of tea and was about to speak, when the young man sitting next to me knocked my teacup hard with a small wooden stick that he had been playing with for a long time, and a dull hum continued to echo in this closed and quiet space.
This sound surprised me, I couldn't help but pick up the teacup and look at it repeatedly, the muffled sound just now was very similar to the sound of a bell, but the bell instruments are mostly cast in copper, even if this teacup is good, it is just a piece of porcelain. I put down the teacup and looked at the stick in his hand, which I had seen playing with from the time I entered the door, but I didn't really think deeply, and now that I was sure that the teacup was fine, the problem could only be with this stick.
The young man was also looking at me, and when he saw that I couldn't stop looking at the stick, he handed it over, "Do you like it?" “
I took the stick, and when I started to sink, my heart sank.
