Chapter 1: Legacy
July 28, 119 of the Union Calendar......
"Rustle...... Thorn ...... Rustle......"
The black pen kept writing Ding Xiaoyi's name over and over again on the brand new contract.
After each page, the secretary on the side will quickly put the contract away and carefully compare it to make sure there are no problems.
Although it is now a new era of electronic information reserves, when it comes to such a large company, it is often a paper contract that is more secure.
The thick contract paper, gradually thinning page by page, when the young man signed his name on the last contract.
The Ding family's two pharmaceutical factories, as well as this commercial building in the center of the city worth tens of billions of league coins, have completely lost a penny to themselves since then.
"Mr. Ding, this is a relic that the chairman pointed out to be handed over to you."
A boxy box was sent in front of Ding Xiaoyi, Ding Xiaoyi did not move the box, but looked at the group lawyer in front of him, and the other party was very thin.
He is already in his forties, with a mustache, and his eyes are more like a vulture staring at him.
In his impression, this lawyer named Wang Ke is the old man's most trusted lawyer, but now he is also the entrusted lawyer of the liquidation company.
Stand up and open the box in front of you.
There are only two things in the boxy cardboard box.
A black notebook with a pitch-black leather cover, which has a special retro texture.
And a very strange piece of yellow paper.
There was a combination lock hanging on the notebook, and Ding Xiaoyi just glanced at it in a hurry, and then paid attention to the yellow paper.
[Title deed: Dukou Road firewood new residence. 】
Is it a title deed?
When he saw the title deed in his hand, Ding Xiaoyi's face couldn't help but have a confused look.
The Ding Group went bankrupt, not to mention real estate, even the deposits were frozen by the bank.
How is it possible to leave yourself a property?
On the side, Wang Ke seemed to see the confusion in his heart, and the corners of his slender eyes narrowed into a slit.
"This deed, we checked it in the Housing Authority, there is no record, from the material of the paper, it is more like some kind of imitation crafts, as the relic of the chairman, we have given up the right to recover this item, which is to repay the chairman for the company's efforts over the years."
"You're so generous!"
Ding Xiaoyipi responded with a smile, and as he spoke, he glanced at the deed in his hand again.
It covers a small area, 300 square meters, but it seems to have a large self-reserved land.
Such a set of real estate is worth a lot of money in S City, where every inch of land is valuable.
Unfortunately, as Wang Ke said, this Ding deed has no legal effect.
But after all, it was the old man's relics left to him, so he carefully put away the deed and picked up the diary in the box.
The black diary, I don't know what kind of leather surface it is, but it feels very good to the touch.
The diary was firmly locked by the silver lock, and Ding Xiaoyi looked at Wang Ke.
Wang Kai just shook his head and said, "We didn't find the key either." ”
At this time, Ding Xiaoyi suddenly saw that there seemed to be something under the box.
When I picked it up, it was actually two coins with a face value of 10,000 yuan.
Of course, if he could ignore the four words of Tiandi Bank above, he thought that he would be even happier.
On the side, Wang Ke explained: "This is already there, and we didn't put it in. ”
Ding Xiaoyi was no longer surprised by this, and after sandwiching these two dark coins in his wallet at will, he stood up and left.
"By the way, although Mr. Ding's company is bankrupt and all assets have been liquidated, you still have another debt, not much, probably ......"
Wang Ke said this, took out his mobile phone and carefully confirmed the number, and added:
"Not much, 184,600 Union Dollars, the repayment date of this money is the 8th of next month, I hope you repay on time, otherwise you will be sued by the bank."
When talking about the repayment date, Wang Ke deliberately accentuated his tone to remind the other party that the repayment deadline is less than ten days away, and what serious consequences he will face if he can't repay the money.
Wang Ke's eyes were fixed on Ding Xiaoyi's body.
I hope to be able to see the helpless look on the face of this teenager.
After all, he had just returned to China, and he faced the departure of his relatives, the bankruptcy of the company, and the debt he could not repay.
This will be a very unacceptable blow to a boy who has been well-dressed since he was a child.
Before entering the door, Wang Ke had even predicted how desperate or depressed this boy would be.
But until now, Wang Ke has not been able to do what he wanted.
The young man in front of him was neither angry nor panicked for this, nor even any dissatisfaction in it.
This made Wang Ke think of the chairman who single-handedly created the Ding Group.
In the new century, the reason why the Ding Group has never been able to stand is precisely because this old man is like a needle in the sea.
Taishan's calm and calm that did not change color before the collapse of Mount Tai has made the company survive disasters again and again in the past 27 years, and even Nirvana has been reborn to create new miracles.
It's just that he's not here now......
Ding Xiaoyi's slender eyebrows raised slightly, and he seemed to have a little impression of this money, which was the money he entrusted to help buy a set of engines from abroad some time ago.
That's the last final payment, and it's the credit card money.
This debt is your own personal debt, but the problem is that after the company goes bankrupt, you are the sole heir of the company.
According to the Debt Inheritance Law, the deposit will also be frozen.
Don't say it's 180,000, take out the fraction of the back, and you can't pay it now.
"Of course, in view of your practical difficulties, I can negotiate with the bank for free to change to semi-annual installments, but you need to repay at least about 30,000 yuan per month."
"I see!"
It's a pity that Ding Xiaoyi didn't mean to talk to Wang Ke, just nodded and walked out of the office.
"Hey, it's 10:37 p.m. now, and there are very few hovercars nearby, or I'll send you, and it's not safe lately, I heard that there was a robber recently......"
Before Wang Ke finished speaking, he saw Ding Xiaoyi waving his hand and had already walked into the elevator.
Ding's Group is in liquidation, and everyone in the company is extremely busy.
But these have nothing to do with me.
When he walked out of the company, Ding Xiaoyi took out his mobile phone, which contained more than ten missed calls, as well as voice text messages and so on.
After flipping through it casually, most of them were concerned greetings from a few friends, and some very clear statements that if he needed money, he only needed to say hello.
After reading it casually, Ding Xiaoyi deleted all the information, and then turned off the phone directly, without trying to contact anyone.
The Ding family went bankrupt.
Without enough capital, all the previous network circles will have no meaning to continue to preserve.
What kind of funding to help my brother tide over the difficulties and start from scratch again, just look at it, don't worry too much about some words.
"I don't know if anyone has taken that engine."
Walking on the road, Ding Xiaoyi looked at the street lamp above his head expressionlessly, thinking about how to pay off the arrears.
Even if he is penniless, Ding Xiaoyi does not plan to be an old man.
The consequences of being sued by the bank and becoming a cheater are very serious.
He didn't think that taking on hundreds of thousands of foreign debts would crush him.
As the old man often said to himself, as long as you are diligent and willing to work, salted fish will also turn over one day.
The house has been sealed, and the contents cannot be taken out by themselves.
But on the dock, the engine he just bought is still there.
If it can be successfully sold, it should be able to exchange a sum of money to solve the urgent need.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaoyi casually stopped a hovering taxi.
Although it is a hovering car, the car in front of it obviously looks very old, and it looks more like an old model from twenty years ago.
The dilapidated body, the lights on the left side of the front of the car have not yet turned on, and a very glaring scratch appears on the body.
One has to wonder if the car was driven from a scrap yard.
This made Ding Xiaoyi instinctively want to refuse to take this car.
But considering the company's location in the suburbs, and the fact that it is this time, I don't know when I have to wait for a hovering truck.
Ding Xiaoyi still pulled the car door and sat in the back seat.
However, before getting into the car, Ding Xiaoyi still kept an eye on it and glanced at the license plate number: "LY404"
Maybe it's been a long time since I've ever made such an old hovercar, as soon as I got in the car, the pungent smell in the car made Ding Xiaoyi feel very unaccustomed, as if something was burned.
But I didn't think much about it, after all, at this time, there is nothing to be picky about.
"To the pier ferry!"
In the entire city of S, there is only one wharf, which is a place to concentrate freight.
Where are you going to check the engine you bought, and then find a black market to sell it at a low price.
Speaking of this engine, Ding Xiaoyi was a little reluctant in his heart, and it took a lot of money to get this engine.
As a fanatic of mechanical modification, this engine, whether it is its own value or rarity, in Ding Xiaoyi's eyes, is far beyond the so-called 180,000 debts.
However, it is precisely because this engine is very unique that Ding Xiaoyi decided to sell it at a low price.
It's not that you can't sell it for a high price, but you can't afford to toss it yourself.
Whether it is looking for a seller, or inspecting, inspecting, testing, a series of regulations, tossing back and forth, it is strange that you don't starve to death.
Selling to the black market is cheap, but at least the money comes quickly.
When Ding Xiaoyi was thinking in his heart.
The driver glanced back at Ding Xiaoyi and said, "Why do you look so sad, you owe money!" ”
Ding Xiaoyi was stunned for a moment, and touched his face with his hand: "Is it obvious??" ”
"You young people of this generation don't know what they think, they don't have the ability to do anything, and they have a lot of ability to owe money."
The driver looked like a passer-by, and pointed to the family photo posted on the driver's seat.
Ding Xiaoyi looked over, and the three of them were smiling on the family photo, and the family looked very happy.
It's just not clear why the photo is black and white.
"This rabbit cub, not good at school, borrowed money to buy things, borrowed 3,000 at the beginning, borrowed 10,000 later, borrowed more and more, and finally borrowed 500,000, I was angry, Lao Tzu got up early and drove greedily to make a few dollars, and all of them were put in."
Ding Xiaoyi glanced at the boy in the photo, who was about the same age as himself.
"It may be an online loan, not necessarily all of them were borrowed by him, or they may have been tricked."
Before returning to China, Ding Xiaoyi paid attention to some online loan incidents in China, most of which were cheated, borrowing 3,000 and playing 5,000 IOUs, and only getting more than 2,000 yuan.
In fact, this kind of routine appeared in the history books for a long time, more than 100 years ago, when mankind had not yet established a coalition state.
"No matter how much, there is still some money left, and he can pay back the money after running for a while, I hope he will go to school well in the future, the young man still has a long way to go, as long as he doesn't give up on himself."
The driver sighed, and by the light outside, it was not difficult to see his gray hair on his sideburns.
For this sentence, Ding Xiaoyi deeply agreed.
Just as he was talking, Ding Xiaoyi suddenly noticed that the light outside the car was getting darker and darker.
At first, there were a few street lights, but now there are no street lights.
Although he had just returned to China, Ding Xiaoyi didn't know how many times he had walked back and forth on the way to the dock, and he had never crossed such a dark road.
"Don't worry, it's a shortcut!" The driver's cheeks were a little blurry in the dimness, and he opened his mouth to appease Ding Xiaoyi.
"There's a shortcut to the docks?"
Ding Xiaoyi seemed to be surprised, but he couldn't help but be wary in his heart.
He had to remember Wang Ke's shouting when he left the company.
There was a robber nearby recently.
Thinking of this, Ding Xiaoyi's heart was cold, and he said secretly: "It won't be so unlucky." ”
"Hehe, I only found out recently, and the place you went to is a bit out of the way, it's easy to walk this way!" The driver responded with a smile.
Ding Xiaoyi had such an expression, quietly took the phone in his hand, and turned it on again.
However, the cell phone signal was blank, and it was clear that there was no signal at all.
This is not the way to the pier.
Ding Xiaoyi has now determined that he is likely to have left the city.
Putting the phone back into his pocket, Ding Xiaoyi casually glanced at the carriage, hoping to find something useful.
"Squeak ......"
At this moment, with a slight sound of braking, I saw the car slowly stop.
"Young man, here, I can't walk the road ahead, you just go forward, give me the fare."
Ding Xiaoyi glanced out the car window, there was nothing in the dark woods, and he couldn't even hear the cries of insects.
"Doing it here?"
After hesitating for a moment, Ding Xiaoyi decided to get out of the car.
Outside is a huge wood, pitch black, I may still have a chance to escape, continue to stay in the car, absolutely dead.
"No need to look for it!"
Ding Xiaoyi took out a 100 face value alliance coin from his wallet, handed it over, and quickly opened the car door and walked down.
I don't know if it's a psychological effect, after one foot hit the ground, Ding Xiaoyi couldn't help but shiver, and grainy goosebumps appeared all over his body.
"Wait!"
At this time, the driver suddenly called out to Ding Xiaoyi, got out of the car and walked quickly to Ding Xiaoyi.
Although the driver was already middle-aged, he was very fast, and Ding Xiaoyi didn't even find out when the other party got out of the car.
Watching the driver get closer and closer, Ding Xiaoyi's heart tightened, and he didn't rush to put the wallet away, but opened the wallet and put it on his chest.
I'm not good at fighting, but I've learned some self-defense techniques, and my eyes are locked between the driver's legs.
Thinking in his heart, when the driver snatched the wallet, he might have the opportunity to give the other party a fatal blow and fight for his own chance to escape.
"Hey, I don't want this money, I want this!"
What Ding Xiaoyi didn't expect at this time was that the driver suddenly returned the 100-yuan bill to Ding Xiaoyi.
Then under Ding Xiaoyi's stunned eyes, two fingers picked up the dark money in Ding Xiaoyi's wallet like lightning, and smiled at Ding Xiaoyi: "Sorry, I only accept dark coins......"
