Chapter 132: Money and Dignity Play Together
In Lin Xingchen's view, as his fame increases, his personal net worth increases. It's also a matter of time before you hire a bodyguard. In order to find some people who do not know the roots, he prefers to believe in his own vision.
Even for Li Xingwu, Lin Xingchen doesn't know much. But he believes that the soldiers trained by the domestic army, regardless of discipline and ability, are stronger than those hired by external security, and they are more trustworthy.
It's just that whether he can recruit these real elites, Lin Xingchen doesn't have much bottom. After all, Li Xingwu would rather drive a taxi than engage in the profession he is best at, which is enough to show that he is very principled.
But no matter what, after ending the call with Li Xingwu, Lin Xingchen called Cheng Quan again. Ask him about the best hospital in Hong Kong that specializes in heart surgery, and ask him to try to consult the experts at the relevant hospital.
And at this moment, outside the Beijing Hospital, looking at a few comrades-in-arms who had fought side by side with him. Even if some of them have a family, their lives are not comfortable. Most of the occupations engaged in are manual work.
As the top special elites in China, they have their own arrogance. I have always felt that I am reluctant to use the skills I have learned in the army to a profession that makes money to survive. But with the tempering of life, this arrogance is also slowly disappearing.
In particular, the illness of the captain's child made them feel ashamed of the captain all the time. Their demobilization, and even more so, the captain, exchanged their lives for their safe demobilization.
They don't want to think about those years of gunfire, but they can't forget them. And they all know that before the captain died, what he was most concerned about was the child's congenital heart disease.
'Team Li, was the person who called you just now the star surnamed Lin? ’
didn't wait for Li Xingwu to speak. Among the young people standing next to him, someone guessed that it was Lin Xingchen who called Li Xingwu. They know a little about Lin Xingchen, he is a talented and rich star.
Last year, the captain's child suddenly fell ill, and a group of people were in a hurry to pay for medical expenses. As a result, Li Xingwu, who also did not earn much. took out more than 100,000 at once, which surprised everyone.
After learning about it, I learned that 100,000 yuan of it was borrowed by Li Xingwu and Lin Xingchen. is such a thing, so that Li Xingwu's comrades-in-arms also have a good impression of Lin Xingchen.
Facing the inquiry of his comrades-in-arms, Li Xingwu nodded and said, "Yes, he called me before." He said that there was a way to solve Xiaoru's medical expenses for us, and even arrange for her to be sent to a hospital in Hong Kong for treatment.
It's just that he called me today. It's not because of this, but because they want to hire me as a bodyguard. Not only me, but also you want to be hired. If you can, he said that you can let us open it.
In addition, whether we want to be his bodyguard or not, he can pay for our treatment in advance. I don't think it's easy to call the shots, so I promised to give him an answer later. What do you all think, let's talk about it! ”
As Li Xingwu finished speaking, one of the young men said, "Squadron leader." How much can he pay us? I will kill people, but I don't understand how to be a bodyguard. But. Xiaoru's illness can't be delayed any longer. ”
As the most professional soldiers, Li Xingwu and these comrades-in-arms are indeed best at killing. Even after they were demobilized, some people also asked them to be bodyguards, but they didn't agree.
For one, they felt that this profession was a bit of an insult to their past honors. Secondly. They don't want to act as someone else's thug. would rather take a meager salary and preserve the dignity of the few iron-blooded soldiers.
'Yes! Xiaoru's illness can't be delayed any longer. Over the years, I've really figured it out. In addition to the skills we learned in the army, in this society. We don't really understand anything. ’
One of the tall and thin young men said this, and his face was also full of loneliness. But those who know him know that he used to be much fatter than he is now. But after years of working as a porter, he eventually lost weight like this.
Looking at the lonely expressions of these comrades-in-arms and thinking of the disappointed eyes of his parents, Li Xingwu also felt a little uncomfortable. In his thirties, he is still single, he has worked hard to earn some money, and almost all of them have contributed to the hospital.
If he still adheres to his principles, it is difficult for Li Xingwu to imagine what this pressure of life will eventually force him to be. And what he was most worried about was the condition of the captain's child.
Thinking of this, Li Xingwu suddenly said: "No matter, Xiaoru's condition is important." If he is willing to treat Xiaoru, I will admit it to being his bodyguard. Two million is enough. ”
'No, Squadron Leader! How can you bear this matter alone! If you go to Hong Kong, we're going too. When we said we lived and died together, do you want to leave us behind? ’
Listening to Li Xingwu's words, these soldiers who were demobilized with Li Xingwu immediately expressed their refusal. In their opinion, no matter what, they must advance and retreat with Li Xingwu. Two million, one life, is indeed enough for them!
Looking at the sincere expressions of these comrades-in-arms, Li Xingwu suddenly smiled and said, "Forget it! Over the years, we have indeed lived with dignity enough. Maybe this time, it's not as important as I thought. That kid looks pretty reliable.
If you decide to come with me to Hong Kong, then I'll call him now. As for the conditions, let's wait until we go to Hong Kong, and then talk to him in detail! I think that the salary of a bodyguard can at least make our family live more comfortably. ”
'Yes, I agree!' ’
It didn't take long for the eight comrades-in-arms who stood by his side and did not abandon them, and soon they all made a unanimous decision. That's to live once for your family! Even if this profession may make them feel a little lost in self-esteem and lose the face of the former soldiers.
After receiving a call from Li Xingwu, Lin Xingchen looked very happy and said: "Brother Li, please rest assured, I have already asked people to contact the best hospital for heart surgery in Hong Kong, and you can come over at any time."
Wait a minute, I'll let someone send 500,000 yuan to your bank card, and you can deal with the affairs of the capital! If you are willing to accept my offer, you will need three or four people to be based in Hong Kong in the future, and the rest can still return to China. ”
'Well, the day after tomorrow at the latest!' ’
Thinking that now that he is going to Hong Kong, the procedures are not very troublesome, Li Xingwu gave a reply very quickly. Before they arrived, Lin Xingchen gave 500,000 yuan equivalent to the settling-in fee. This kind of trust made Li Xingwu feel a lot more comfortable.
In less than half an hour, I looked at the SMS reminder sent by mobile banking. Li Xingwu immediately said: "Haozi, go and arrange for Xiaoru to be discharged." Three guns, you go to book a ticket to Hong Kong the day after tomorrow, and each person will take 50,000 yuan home first! ”
Eight comrades-in-arms, each with 50,000 yuan for settling in, and the remaining 100,000 yuan is enough for them to arrive in Hong Kong. Anyway, this is the first money they actually get home after they leave the army. It's not much, but it can make your family happy! (To be continued......)
