Text Volume 1 The Gathering of Storms Chapter 1 "Debt Collection" Calls
Yizhou, also known as Jincheng, is also known as Rongcheng because of the many Rong trees in the city in ancient times.
It is the only sub-provincial city in southwest China and a megacity. The birthplace of ancient Shu civilization and one of the top ten ancient capitals of China. The Ninth Emperor of the Enlightened Dynasty was named Chengdu with "one year into Yi, two years into Chengdu". In the Northern Song Dynasty, the world's first paper money was invented - Jiaozi, many historical sites in the city, because of the abundance of products, commercial prosperity replaced Guanzhong is called the country of abundance.
With the rapid development of China's economy at the beginning of the 20th century, Yizhou also caught up with this train. In more than 10 years, although the house price is not as good as Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, it is also breaking through the sky, as we all know, in today's standard of measuring a city, the house price is undoubtedly very convincing. This kind of development has created a large number of wealthy people, commonly known as demolition households. Since ancient times, there has been a saying among Chinese people that has been passed down to this day, which is "full of warmth and thoughts." "The abundant economic conditions have naturally prompted a large number of people to pursue the material things of life.
In such a city with rich history and culture and good development prospects, at about 3 o'clock in the afternoon, located on the edge of the fourth ring road in the northeast of Yizhou City, a community built in 85 years, a set of two-bedroom apartments on the top floor of the 6th floor in the community,
The house is very dilapidated, and the rooms are full of a sense of age that fits the house perfectly, the granite floor tiles are pitted everywhere, the guardrails of the windowsills are covered with rust, and the pots of cacti and succulents on them are all fed by rainwater, fortunately neither of these plants needs much water, otherwise they would have died long ago;
There are no curtains, and there is no need for big trees outside, the wooden benches in the living room and the lame coffee table with a pot of bamboo and the old-fashioned glass TV cabinet with a box-type color TV complement each other well, and the dark bathroom and dusty kitchen are also "contrasting", it is worth mentioning that the clothes in the bedroom are well organized, and the bed is also very tidy.
In the other bedroom, there is a bookcase with a lot of books on it, including Feng Shui, martial arts, finance, psychology, interviews with the mentally ill, and so on. Neatly placed on the bookcase, there is also a simple desk and a one produced in the 80s that still stands today.
At this time, a young man leaned on the bench in the living room with a slightly sluggish expression, holding a printed white porcelain cup that was supposed to be 20 years old and should have disappeared from the stall in the night market and drank water, and his fingers trembled slightly, exposing the panic in the young man's heart at this time.
"There will be a number that has been deleted a long time ago, but will not be forgotten....." There was a ringing on the mobile phone on the lame coffee table, echoing in the room, and at the same time vibrating wildly on the coffee table, there was a momentum that if you didn't answer the phone, it would dare to shatter the coffee table. In the end, the young man rubbed his trigeminal nerve and picked up the phone and put it to his ear.
"Hey."
"Simon official, what have you been doing lately, have you borrowed a loan shark and been chased for it, I said that your kid is short of money and tell me, I'll make some for you, buddy is poor, there are still three melons and two dates, as for you to borrow loan sharks, can you touch that thing, are you not confused, usually your kid is not very clever, why are you stupid, what the hell is going on, you must explain it to me today, buddy can also help find a way if something happens."
There was a burst of excited white-snatching on the other end of the phone, accompanied by a fierce panting.
"Kunzi, I didn't borrow loan sharks." The young man replied a little mechanically.
The personnel young man on the other end of the phone was a colleague from the previous company, named Li Kun, although the two did not get along for a long time, a total of more than 5 months, but it can be seen that the relationship between the two is not bad. In these years, if the so-called friends know that something has happened to you, they will not call you to block and cut off all relations with you, not to mention calling to remind you, caring about what happened to you, and saying that they will help you solve the problem together. Therefore, the young man's heart was also moved, but his expression was a little unusually calm.
"Didn't borrow from loan sharks, really? Today, two people came to the company to ask me out, saying that they wanted to buy two insurances from me, I was very happy, you know that this kind of door-to-door business has basically disappeared in our industry, so when I went out, I paid more attention to it, and sure enough, the two people chatted a few words, and asked you intentionally or unintentionally about your affairs, and asked how you performed in the company, how your interpersonal relationship was, whether you liked someone, where to play, etc., I noticed that something was wrong, and reacted. These two people are definitely not here to buy insurance, although I don't know what they want to do, but these days, how can anyone come out in a suit to buy insurance, and wear a pair of sunglasses, making themselves look like the Matrix, and what is even more annoying is that they also took out a small book to take notes, which is simply insulting my IQ, and then I don't know, they ask that, I say how good insurance is. Qingzi, did you kid harm the daughter of a rich family, and others came to you for revenge. ”
There was another burst of incomprehensible robbery on the other end of the phone, this kid is a chatterbox, and the young man was speechless, this product's imagination is too rich.
"Kunzi, I didn't borrow loan sharks, and I didn't harm other people's daughters, anyway, I don't know what's going on, I'm completely confused now, and then, what do you say later."
Obviously, Li Kun trusts the young man very much, and after listening to him, he doesn't seem to be worried, to be honest, this heart is really big, and then he started talking in the vernacular again.
"What can I say, with my brother's IQ, I must have solved the problem for you perfectly, don't worry."
When the young man heard this, he immediately raised his vigilance, although the two did not get along for a long time, but they still knew him very well, every time this thing said that he had solved the problem perfectly, in fact, he had done a very unreliable thing, and the young man had suffered several times.
"Say it quickly, don't talk about it, what the hell are you talking about, it makes me have a bit of a score in my heart."
"Damn, you don't trust me, brother do things, don't worry, I told them that I haven't been in touch with you for a long time, and the phone can't get through, and WeChat can't be contacted, but I want to contact you, I also know a way, but they have to invite me to dinner, they agreed, I told them, let them go to the back of the botanical garden (cemetery), the 8th position in the 8th row, write down what they want to say on paper and burn it, and then get down on one knee and shout a sentence The official receives the letter, and they ask me if I have a password with you, It's so mysterious, I say no, in fact, you traveled to a foreign country a few months ago, and died in a car accident, haven't you heard of this person is dead, and there is an allusion to burning paper. After hearing this, they probably realized that I was teasing them, so they got up and left, and the tea money was not settled, and the food was not invited to me, and the two fools were too unkind. ”
After listening to this, the young man was speechless, completely speechless, he thought that this product was unreliable, but he didn't expect that the nerves of this product had broken through the sky, and he didn't know whether to be sad or happy with such a friend.
"Damn, you're a second shortage, you can talk to people, why don't you curse Lao Tzu to death. This matter is not over, if I don't kill you, you still don't know that I am your official. The young man said jokingly.
Li Kun smiled and said, "You are welcome at any time, my brother should be a relief victim, but I have to remind you, although I didn't say anything to those two people, but when I returned to the company, I found that several people seemed to have experienced similar things, like the calf surnamed Zhao who took you away, and I can't make sure they said anything unfavorable to you, you should be careful yourself." ”
"Well, thank you Kunzi, I remember."
"That's okay, I won't talk to you in the vernacular, my performance this month is still bad, I have to go to the customer to "talk about love", by the way, you left my customer, it's really good, buddy presents your love, we will come out to get together another day, hang up. ”
After saying that, Li Kun hung up the phone, the young man threw the phone on the coffee table, picked up his "rare" white porcelain cup again, and fell silent. This wasn't the first time he'd received such a call, to be precise, it was the 27th call he had received within two hours of returning home.
The first two didn't care who thought they were joking with him, but then they received some unbelievable phone calls, including his father, third uncle and second uncle, grandfather, uncle, second uncle and other elders, high school classmates, elementary school teachers, playmates who were with mud when they were young, ex-girlfriends, ex-ex-girlfriends, crushes, female classmates who had expressed to him, and other people who had nothing to do with each other, and the feedback was also varied.
Some asked him about his grades in elementary school, asked him how naughty he was when he was a child, asked how he chased girls, and the most outrageous one was to go to his hometown to see the feng shui of the ancestral grave, and the young man held a grass. This Nima still wants to ask his ancestors how he inherited the genes, damn it.
Such things happened almost simultaneously in different places, no matter how big or small, and turned the life of the young man up to this point all over again. The young man can't figure it out, what is this for, who has so much energy, spends so much manpower to investigate him as a dick young man, what does he have that is worthy of other people's attention to investigate, this is not logical, even if the young man takes away the whole waist to sell, the estimated cost is about the same.
The young man was puzzled, and said to himself: "God, I'm unlucky enough, it's not bad enough to recruit villains everywhere, why don't you want to play my rhythm to death." ”
The young man put away his thoughts, and planned to think carefully about what had happened recently, to see who or where the problem was, and he could say that he was a poor dick anyway, and he had no long things, and he was not afraid that others would think about him, according to the young man's character, if this kind of thing was only about himself, it is estimated that he would have forgotten it long ago, and he would not have taken it to heart at all.
The point is that now it involves the family and friends of the young people, not one, but almost all of them, including some enemies. I don't want to have a clue, it is estimated that the ancestral grave will be dug up by this group of people if I am not careful, and even if these people don't do anything to him at that time, it is estimated that his father will have to kill him, and he will have to peel off his skin if he doesn't die.
The young man held a grass, how could this kind of thing happen to him, he is not the protagonist in the movie, he doesn't need these bizarre things, it's good to be calm.
Just as the young man was thinking wildly, the phone on the lame coffee table rang again, "There will be a number that has long been deleted, but has not forgotten....." This time, the young man did not hesitate to pick up the phone, and when he saw a strange call, he was stunned for a moment, at this time, there would be no call to sell insurance loans, so he would definitely scold, just to vent for him, so he did not hesitate to pick it up, and said in a polite tone
"Hey, who's that?"
"Is it Mr. Simon?"
The young man listened to the voice on the other end of the phone, and inexplicably felt that the tone over there had a prank succeeding, and then asked his friend to guess who was prank, and then couldn't help laughing.
"I'm not a gentleman, who are you, don't tell me what you're going to sell me now, if it's to persuade you to hang up the phone immediately, otherwise you'll regret it." The young man said in a rather unceremonious tone.
"Mr. Simon, I'm sorry to disturb you. First of all, I will introduce myself as the person in charge of YN company, my name is Lu Xin, do you remember coming to my company for an interview this morning? I will now formally inform you, after our investigation you have preliminarily passed our assessment, if it is convenient for you, please arrive at the company within an hour, if you can come over, we will continue to talk. ”
Firm? Lu Xin? Well....the young man's head was a little confused now, but then he reacted.
"Oh, Mr. Lu, hello, hello. Okay, okay, I'll be right over. ”
"Okay, I'll wait for you in the company, that's it." The other party hung up the phone.
The young man immediately grabbed his backpack and rushed downstairs, taking a taxi to the YN company that Mr. Lu said. No matter what those people want to do, finding a job and earning money is still the top priority.
