September 21. There are still ten days left before the start of school. The interest of the three million he borrowed through various mobile phone software and loan sharks has rolled over to 100,000.

In the afternoon of the same day, the well-dressed, glasses-wearing, and Sven-looking "Lan Silin" came to the Tenth Fu Road with a briefcase on his back.

According to the address on the text message, Lan Silin walked into a nearby office building. The ground floor here is a shopping mall, and there are not many people: many of the shops are fenced off, and it looks like they are preparing for tomorrow's store celebrations.

Found the elevator and went straight up to the seventh floor. The scene has been completely renewed. This is the corporate office floor, which seems to have just been renovated, and the smell of paint is faintly permeable in the air.

Lan Silin showed a smile, looked left and right, walked to the door number of "Ancheng Credit Co., Ltd.", and when she pressed the doorbell, she had changed into a polite and respectful appearance.

……

"Mr. Lan, we have carefully considered that the financing amount of 10 million is indeed a lot of money for us, but after this period of time to check the credibility of your company, I still feel that ...... Your idea has excellent development potential, so I also tried my best to make a point for you, and decided to open this loan program with a loan amount of 10 million to you. ”

In the isolated office, Jiang Zhilin, who was dressed in formal clothes, smiled professionally.

Lan Silin showed just the right amount of surprise on her face, as if she was faintly relieved:

"That's great...... That's great...... Thank you! ”

He stood up and shook Jiang Zhilin's hand respectfully. Jiang Zhilin nodded slightly and handed over the contract document in front of him.

"This is the relevant contract document, you need to look at it, if you think there is nothing wrong with the above treaties. You'll be able to sign it. For a large loan like yours, you need to pay a total of 2.8 million collateral first, and then we will transfer 10 million to your account...... The mortgage is repaid in 14 instalments, and after the third instalment, you can get back your full mortgage......"

"This ......" Lan Silin's face suddenly showed a rather embarrassed expression. He pursed his lips and took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.

"Miss Jiang, I already know the regulations above. It's just that...... I have an unspeakable ......"

Jiang Zhilin was stunned, smiled and nodded:

"Tell me."

"That's right." Lan Silin sighed and said:

"In fact, some time ago, my father already knew about the fact that I was splitting the technical department and planning to set up a separate portal. After arguing with him, I reluctantly compromised with each other and made a little concession - he had already agreed that he would not interfere with my plan to invest in a new watch this time, but ...... He also demanded that if you want to take out a loan with the three million yuan used as an investment, you must first directly get part of the deposit of the loan to prove that I am not spending money indiscriminately......"

As she spoke, Lan Silin scratched her hair and smiled a little shyly:

"I'm really sorry, but it's also because I did a lot of ridiculous things when I was young......

The expression on Jiang Zhilin's face froze, but there was a sneer in his heart. This crappy scruffy scammer has finally come to light.

She smiled softly, pretending to be quite understanding:

"So...... How much do you want to get first? ”

Lan Silin clenched her fists, plucked up the courage to look at her sincerely, and said:

"Two million...... As long as two million will do...... Just to prove that I didn't spend this mortgage anywhere else, as long as I have your company's loan contract and two million cash, my father will believe me, and I can pay your company three million mortgage immediately......"

Jiang Zhilin burst into a nameless fire in his heart, this little thief actually opened his mouth widely, and he used such a lame excuse. She felt a little bored, and the professional smile on her face retracted a lot.

"Mr. Lan...... I'm afraid I won't be able to accede to your request. The process of the loan is written in black and white on the contract, and it is not something that I can decide alone, and besides, this situation of asking for a loan first and then paying the mortgage is not in line with the process of the transaction......"

"Please!" Lan Silin stood up in a panic:

"I genuinely want to borrow money from your company...... Believe me, I know this is a bit excessive, but you can check the business reputation of our Ted Watch Company, I will not lie...... By the way, the website, we also have the official website......"

Lan Silin hurriedly took out the mobile phone in her suit pocket, but was stopped by Jiang Zhilin, she shook her head and said:

"Mr. Lan, it's not that I don't want to help you, this kind of thing is really not something I can decide alone...... Well, I'll ask the company's top management for a discussion about this matter and I'll give you an answer after discussing it, okay? ”

Walking out of the office and through the busy and quiet office area, the clerks of Ancheng Credit, who were working on documents in front of the desks, seemed to have not noticed Lan Silin's existence.

Shi Zuocai walked out of the office building silently and came to the busy street, the confused look on his face disappeared in an instant, turning into a frivolous smile.

"It's not a small trick to disguise the floors that haven't been opened for rent as your own bag company, and even invite so many tricks."

He muttered to himself, stretched long, took off his blazer and draped it over his shoulders casually, slouching into the bustling crowd.

--------------------

Back in the hotel room where he lived, Jiang Zhilin threw the briefcase to the ground.

"Damn liars...... It's stupid! I'm wasting so much time with this little hairy kid......"

"Wasted so much foreshadowing on me...... It cost me tens of thousands of dollars just to find so many actors and decorate that office building, and now it's all in vain! ”

She scratched her hair frantically, her hideous expression and that Ms. Jiang of Ancheng Credit looked like two people, took out a can of beer from the hotel refrigerator, poured a few sips, and scolded the lame liar named Lan Silin's ancestor for eighteen generations.

Daddy doesn't agree? Want to prove that he is not a playboy and really wants to go into business? This kind of excuse can also be imagined, is this acting as a fool?

Next week, she will donate 300,000 yuan to her township for road repair projects, and now, if she doesn't do some reliable "business", her account savings will really be stretched......

"If it weren't for that kid taking the initiative to come to the door and wasting so much of my time and energy, the old lady would have found a new fat sheep a long time ago......"

The more Jiang Zhilin thought about it, the more angry he became, and he burst a few foul words one after another, and the anger in his heart lingered for a long time, always reminiscing about the little brat's lame acting skills and absurd and ridiculous rhetoric.

"Please believe me......"

"You can check the business reputation of our Ted Watch Company......

"We also have an official website ......"

Jiang Zhilin's emotions slowly calmed down, his thoughts gradually became active, and his eyes narrowed slightly.

"...... official website?"

She rose to her feet, grabbed her bedside laptop, hurriedly opened the web page, and typed the word "Tide" into the search engine.

At the top of the list is none other than "Tide Watch Co., Ltd. - China".

"It's a real company?" She squinted her eyes slightly, and secretly thought in her heart, that little hairy child was afraid that he had used a similar routine as herself, a fox and a fake tiger.

Thinking about it, she slid the mouse and roughly browsed the homepage of the entire website, without seeing the slightest clue, and when she pulled to the bottom, she saw a list of contact information, and her mind moved.

She fumbled in her briefcase, finding the business card that Lan Silin had handed her.

There are two strings of numbers written on it, and 135XXXXXXXX is the private contact number in China. The other eight-digit number matches the contact number on the website.

Jiang Zhilin frowned, picked up the phone, and dialed the eight-digit number.

The call was quickly connected. What came to my ears was a fairly standard English recording. It sounds like a telecommunications operator's telephone call.

After playing in English, the crisp and standard female voice was repeated in Chinese.

"Welcome to call the customer service of Tide Watch Co., Ltd., press 1 for English, press 2 for Chinese ......"

Enobayashi pressed 2.

"Please press 1 for logistics inquiry, press 2 for product information, press 3 for product complaints, and press 0 ......for transfer to the manual station"

Enobayashi pressed 0.

“…… The following conversations will be recorded ......"

After waiting for a while, a sweet female voice rang on the other end of the phone:

"Hello, this is Ted Watches Ltd."

"May I ask ......" Jiang Zhilin took a light breath, trying to keep his tone calm:

"I'm Miss Jiang from Ancheng Credit Co., Ltd., and I have a contract with your outsourcing manager Lan Silin that hasn't been completed, is he here now?"

"Please wait a minute." I couldn't hear the voice on the other end of the phone for a while, as if I was rummaging for something, so I spoke again:

"Miss Jiang Zhilin, is it? Manager Lan Silin is not in the office right now. He has already left a message saying that if you need it, you can call his personal number 135XXXXXXXX......"

"Ah...... Good...... I see......"

Turning off the phone, Jiang Zhilin's mood was like riding a roller coaster for a while.

All this ...... It's all true?!

What's going on? That's obviously a lame liar...... Could it be that when I saw those inferior leather shoes, it was just my own illusion? Or did you look away?

Jiang Zhilin was full of thoughts at the moment, and suddenly felt that the whole incident had become complicated.

The official website exists. The company should not be fake. Jiang Zhilin, who was extremely suspicious, even checked the Australian company address of that company, and searched it from Google Maps, which completely corresponded...... If that Lan Sirin is a fake "real thing", that is, then the request to pay two million in advance is really his last resort?

If this is the case, even if he really gave him 2 million, and then transferred 2.8 million as a collateral, he would be able to make a net 800,000 quick money......

The problem is that this is risky. She can get two million, but if she is deceived, it will definitely be nerve-wracking......

"But......" Jiang Zhilin narrowed his eyes slightly, and said softly:

"Even if he's really a thief...... It's just a big knife in front of Guan Gong. To put it bluntly, he shouldn't even know my true identity now, he just stumbled into my muzzle by mistake, and the initiative is completely in my hands......"

Jiang Zhilin paced back and forth in the room, pondering for a long time.

Time passed minute by minute, until at a certain point, she took out a sample watch that Lan Silin had given her from her briefcase, sat on the edge of the bed, put it in the palm of her hand, and carefully rubbed the delicate dial.

She smiled faintly.
