Chapter 44: Simple Values
Chunfang cried on the phone while telling Liu Yun what happened.
A year ago, a businessman surnamed Xu from Yanjing frequently went to the fisherman's restaurant to eat. Seinfeld is a man who loves to make friends. The two became friends as soon as they came and went. Half a month ago, this businessman surnamed Xu contacted Seinfeld, saying that there was a problem with his company's capital chain, and the bank loan would come down in half a month. I can only borrow 10 million yuan from a private investment company to pay for this half month.
To borrow money from a private investment company, a guarantor is naturally required. The businessman surnamed Xu wanted Seinfeld to be his guarantor. At the same time, he promised that if Seinfeld signed the guarantee contract and the bank loan was in place afterwards, he would pay Seinfeld a guarantee fee of 500,000.
When this businessman surnamed Xu was in Guangming District, he kept driving a supercar worth four million. The shot is also quite generous. Seinfeld thinks that he is strong, and the debt of 10 million is only a small amount for him, and he will definitely be able to pay it off on time. Out of the face of friends and the benefit of 500,000 guarantee fees, Seinfeld happily agreed and went to Yanjing to sign the guarantee.
The day before yesterday, when the time of half a month was up, the businessman surnamed Xu readily asked Song Fei to go to Yanjing to get a guarantee fee of 500,000 yuan. Song Fei arrived in Yanjing, only to find that the office of a businessman surnamed Xu had been emptied. The businessman surnamed Xu also lost contact!
Then, one after another, the collection calls from the investment company were called to Seinfeld. It turned out that this businessman surnamed Xu had long been in debt. He withdrew the funds from the investment company and ran away.
This is a pit for Seinfeld! The debtor runs away, and he, the guarantor, has to bear the debt of 10 million! You must know that all his belongings - houses, cars, and restaurants are worth only a few thousand! The investment company not only wants to take over his house, his car, but also the fisherman's restaurant! And it's perfectly legal for investment companies to do so!
Seinfeld is now a pauper!
After Chunfang finished crying, Liu Yun comforted her: "Big sister, I am a poor person and I don't understand things in the business field. But since the matter has come out, it has to be resolved. Although I don't have much money, Seinfeld helped me at the beginning, and I can't ignore him when he has something. β
Chunfang cried on the other end of the phone: "Thank you, Brother Liu Yun!" β
Liu Yun hung up the phone and found Zhao Qiyou, the coach and owner of the Dongxing team.
Zhao Qiyou asked Liu Yun: "You don't have a good rest in the room, what are you doing here with me?" You're our team's winning weapon, and I'm counting on you to perform well in the next game." β
Liu Yun said hesitantly: "Director Zhao... There's something I'd like to discuss with you... β
Zhao Qiyou said: "You are also a soldier, speak cheerfully!" Say anything! β
Liu Yun was embarrassed and said, "Can you γγγγγ Advance my salary for 3 months? β
Zhao Qiyou frowned after hearing this: "What, Liu Yun, do you think you are amazing after scoring 3 goals?" Know that reaching out and asking for money from the team? β
Liu Yun hurriedly said, "Director Zhao, I didn't mean that. β
Zhao Qiyou said angrily: "Then what do you mean?" The team has rules and regulations, and about salaries, it is a month to end! There is no precedent for an advance! Did you score a few goals and be fluttering, infected with the same problem as Wu Fan, waiting for the money to stick to the woman?! β
Liu Yun said: "No! Well, there was something wrong with the owner of my old teamγγγγγγ β
Liu Yun told Zhao Qiyou about Seinfeld.
Liu Yun said: "Seinfeld once helped me. If it weren't for him, maybe I would still be working as a breakfast stall and a cleaner in Jingzhou. Now that something has happened to him, I can't stand idly by! Coach Zhao, I promise to do my best to repay the team in future games. Don't worry, I definitely don't use the advance salary to do any crooked ways, I am really a benefactor who helps myself! β
Zhao Qiyou looked directly into Liu Yun's eyes: "I believe in you." Well, you give me an account number. I will immediately ask the team accountant in Shanghai to transfer the three-month salary of 50,000 yuan to your account! You are a good person! β
Liu Yun returned to the hotel from Zhao Qiyou, and dialed the phone of Su Ziqiang, the boss of Xingwang Watch, his former teammate: "Hey, Ziqiang, do you know that something happened to Seinfeld?" β
Su Ziqiang said: "I haven't heard of it! Ahem, I said I couldn't see him in the team's training these days! He has a strong temper, and he loves to resist when he encounters problems. β
Liu Yun told Su Ziqiang about Seinfeld.
Su Ziqiang said: "This Seinfeld! In recent years, because of loan guarantees, families have been ruined and people have died! How dare he get involved in such a thing! β
Liu Yun said: "Since the matter has already happened, it's too late to say anything!" I mean, can our teammates scrape together some money to help Seinfeld get through this? I am a poor man with no savings. However, I did advance my salary of 50,000 yuan for three months with the team. Alas, I'm a person with no ability, and I can only scrape together so much money. β
Su Ziqiang said: "Okay! I immediately contacted the brothers of our Fisherman's Restaurant team! More than 10 million dollars, all together is enough to choke. I asked the brothers to do their best, and they could make up as much as they could! β
The teammates of the Fisherman's Restaurant team are all successful people. Su Ziqiang finished calling one by one, and his teammates promised 100,000 yuan this one and 200,000 yuan that one. Su Ziqiang estimated that he could make up a total of more than 3 million.
At half past nine in the evening, Su Ziqiang called Liu Yun.
"Hey, old Liu. The brothers have all made phone calls, and I have calculated that with your 50,000, I can make up a total of about 3 million to give to Seinfeld. Su Ziqiang said.
Liu Yun replied: "Lao Su, I think so. I heard Chunfang say that the investment company will take away Seinfeld's house, car and fisherman's restaurant. The fisherman's restaurant is the big one. Can we use the more than 3 million to find an investment company and give Song Feipan the right to operate the fisherman's restaurant. Whose money didn't fall from the sky and be washed by floods. With Seinfeld's stubborn temper, he won't accept our handouts! Even if we lend him this money, we can regroup! Let him take down the fisherman's restaurant and start over! β
Su Ziqiang said excitedly on the phone: "Okay! It's a good idea! I also know that stubborn donkey from Seinfeld! Let's give him the money directly, he will think that we look down on him! Let's just lend it to him! 3 million, the right to operate the fisherman's restaurant is definitely enough! I'll ask the brothers to transfer the funds to Seinfeld's wife's Chunfang card tomorrow. Then I went to Seinfeld, flew straight to Yanjing with him, and talked to the investment company in Yanjing! Alas, who can have smooth sailing in this life, and who can not encounter some obstacles? It's a handful of friends to be able to help each other! β
Liu Yun hung up the phone and lay on the bed.
He had been a poor man for half his life, and he didn't know what was going on in business. He only knows that he must repay his benefactor with kindness. This is the minimum moral bottom line of a person.
No matter how far society develops, the moral bottom line must not be lost.
These are his simple values.
