Luo Shaoming was even more surprised when she heard Chen Mengqi say that Ye Ming was her boyfriend, and immediately changed her face to a respectful smile, hugged her fists at Ye Ming and said, "Brother, I have eyes and don't know Mount Tai, I have offended the nobles, please forgive me!" Today, I also have unspeakable troubles: now we are lending money outside, and it is becoming more and more difficult to collect the debt. Some of them can't afford to pay back, so they simply run away, so our company is now having more and more bad debts. We occasionally take some brutal measures against debtors, and find my junior brothers to scare them, which is some, and please don't take Director Ye to heart. As for Director Ou, I am actually friends with him. It's just that, with all due respect, Director Ou also loves those two cards too much, and he has been defeated and defeated repeatedly, and he doesn't know how to stop in moderation at all. I lent him the 150,000 yuan because I was friends with him. Because he does not have any guarantee or collateral, the interest rate is a little higher than usual, which is also to maximize the control of lending risk. Now that Director Ye has come forward, let's sit down and talk about it and find a suitable solution. ”

Although he said this to Ye Ming, in fact, the central meaning was to explain to Chen Mengqi the reason for his high-interest loans, and wanted her not to call Brother Chao to check the accounts of the "Deli Investment Company".

Chen Mengqi didn't buy his account, and said: "Luo Shaoming, since you dare to lend money to Director Ou of the Local Taxation Bureau at a high interest rate, and dare to illegally detain him, it proves that you must have done similar things many times." I remember that in the loan statement you reported to my dad every month, there was never a business with a monthly interest rate of more than 5%. Therefore, I think you have the behavior of enriching your own pockets in the company's off-the-books loans. This has to be clarified. My dad has so many companies in Xinleng, if the people in charge of operation and management are like you, using my family's company as a shell to make your own money, then why do we still open these companies? It's better to close it as soon as possible. ”

Luo Shaoming saw that Chen Mengqi insisted on checking his account, and he was so anxious that he couldn't do it, but he didn't dare to show it on his face. In order to cover up, he suddenly opened the door of the box and shouted to the waiter outside: "Sister Liang, bring everyone in this box the best cup of tea and a large fruit platter." In addition, you will have two hares, an eagle, and two catties of wild boar in the kitchen, and we will eat in the private room later. ”

It turns out that Phoenix Villa is famous for eating wild game. In order to divert Chen Mengqi's attention, Luo Shaoming deliberately announced the names of these rare game, and at the same time wanted to win the favor of Chen Mengqi and Ye Ming.

Chen Mengqi wished that she could stay with Ye Ming for a while longer, and when she heard Luo Shaoming say that she wanted to invite them to dinner, she didn't raise any objections. Ye Ming thought that he already owed so much money anyway, and eating his meal was also wool from the sheep. What's more, he also wanted to reconcile the relationship between Ou Yangming and Luo Shaoming and the others through the opportunity of eating and drinking, so as not to cause Ou Yangming to be retaliated against by them in the future. Therefore, he did not make a sound.

The waiter quickly brought the tea and fruit platter. Luo Shaoming respectfully invited Ye Ming and Chen Mengqi to sit down, and also made a "please" gesture to Ou Yangming.

Ou Yangming suddenly changed from a prisoner to a guest at the top of the stairs, his heart was both emotional and sour, and at the same time, his gratitude to Ye Ming had penetrated deep into the bone marrow.

Chen Mengqi leaned her head on Ye Ming's shoulder, wrapped her left hand around his waist, and the two of them sat affectionately on the sofa at the door of Mianduo. Ou Yangming and Luo Shaoming sat facing each other on two chairs, both of them holding purple sand teacups, covering half of their cheeks, trying to avoid eye contact.

Ye Ming also picked up a cup of tea, took two sips, then turned his gaze to Luo Shaoming, and said unhurriedly: "Mr. Luo, I want to settle the debt owed by Director Ou to you today." I know that he has paid you a total of $90,000 in interest for six months, and the principal amount is $150,000. In other words: you have now returned 60% of your principal. Of course, you make a living by lending money to earn interest, and I can't say a penny of interest. My idea is: since you are friends, your interest will be charged a little lower, and the interest will be calculated at 3% per month. I calculated: Director Ou borrowed the 150,000 yuan for 10 months, calculated at 3% per month, and the interest of 45,000 yuan should be paid to you, plus the principal, a total of 195,000 yuan should be repaid to you. In the first 6 months, he has already paid you 90,000 yuan. Therefore, now we should pay you back 105,000 yuan. Think about it: Is this proposal okay for me? 3% interest per month, your company still earns, just a little less, right? ”

Speaking of this, he raised the shopping bag containing money that he had been carrying in his hand and said, "Mr. Luo, if you agree with my solution, I will give you 105,000 yuan now, how about it?" ”

Before Luo Shaoming could answer, Chen Mengqi, who was sitting next to Ye Ming, snatched the bag and threw it behind him, and then said to Luo Shaoming: "Luo Shaoming, I have the final say in this matter today: Director Ou owes the company 150,000 yuan, but you detained him for a long time and slapped him a few times. As the saying goes: Hitting people does not slap their faces, and scolding people does not expose their shortcomings. He is the deputy director of the first branch of the tax bureau, and you slap him in the face at every turn, which is an insult, and you must compensate him for mental damages. Therefore, the interest of 150,000 yuan for 10 months, no matter how much it is, and no matter what proportion it is calculated, it can be regarded as the spiritual and reputational loss fee you pay to Director Ou for others. Previously, Director Ou had already repaid you 90,000 yuan, and now he still owes you 60,000 yuan. You will deduct the 60,000 yuan from the profits of the company, and then you tell my father: I spent 60,000 yuan of pocket money in the company, and I admit it. ”

When Luo Shaoming heard her say that he slapped Ou Yangming a few times, he would be exempted from 10 months of interest, so he couldn't help but feel pain, pointed to his hair, and said with a sad face: "Qiqi, Director Ye also beat me just now, so what should he do?" Will I also be compensated for the loss of my moral and reputational rights? ”

Chen Mengqi said arrogantly: "Luo Shaoming, let me tell you, these are two different things: if you beat Director Ou, it is bullying and unreasonable; My eldest brother beat you, that is self-defense and fighting back, upholding justice. Besides, you are messing around the streets every day, and you have to beat people at every turn, and you have to be beaten often. You are beaten up, it is commonplace, what is the loss of spirit and reputation? If Director Ou is a state cadre, if he wears a uniform, if you beat him, you will slap the local taxation authorities in the face, and you will be against the state organs. If you want to lose such a small amount of money, it will still spare you. You say, don't you? ”

Luo Shaoming now pinched the handle in Chen Mengqi's hand, knowing that she was messing around, and wanted to help her lover get rid of the interest, but he didn't dare to refute her, so he nodded reluctantly and agreed to Chen Mengqi's solution.
