Chapter Seventy-Nine: In-Store Outwitting
Yang Wentao picked up the enforcement notice from the ground and said, "Liao Wenchang, don't say it so ugly, we are performing legal procedures." You are the person in charge of Yongchang Company and the guarantor of Yongchang Company, so of course, you have to fulfill the legal obligations determined by the judgment......"
"I told you, I don't have any money!" Before Yang Wentao finished speaking, Liao Wenchang interrupted him: "Hasn't my company been seized by you, and you can deal with it as you like." Don't come to me again in the future, it's useless to look for me! Then, he took out a small wad of banknotes from his pocket and slapped it on the table: "Let me tell you the truth, I have more than 1,000 yuan on me, which is my family's living expenses for two months, you all take it, let's go drink the northwest wind." ”
Isn't this a way to beg for food? Chen Molei was angry in his heart, but his face was the same as if it was nothing: "Don't get excited, there is no injustice between us, what are you angry with us?" If there's anything you can't say well, do you have to let your neighbors know about you? ”
Liao Wenchang thought about it for a while, and felt that what Chen Molei said in the last sentence was also reasonable, people want to face trees and bark, attracting a large group of onlookers is not a good thing after all, and it will inevitably affect business. So, his tone softened a lot: "Okay, you say, I'll listen." However, you can't say everything, and you have to listen to my opinions. ”
Chen Molei saw that Liao Wenchang's attitude was not so impulsive, so he began to ask.
Only two people can sit on one side of the glass table, and Yang Le, who was in charge of recording, saw that Chen Molei and Yang Wentao occupied all the seats on one side, and he couldn't sit on Liao Wenchang's side, so he pulled out the empty chair next to Liao Wenchang, sat on the corner of the table near Chen Molei's side, and began to record.
Yang Wentao said: "Regarding the series of cases of Yongchang Company, the Dongzhou Court has made a judgment two years ago, requiring you to fulfill joint and several repayment obligations, why have you not fulfilled them? ”
Liao Wenchang stilted Erlang's legs, looking indifferent: "It's not that I don't perform, it's that I really don't have money." If I had money, I would have paid them back a long time ago, would I have to go all the way to Qijiang to avoid debts? Don't I want to have a peaceful birthday? ”
He sighed and said, "You probably don't know me yet." Actually, I am a very honest and righteous person, after you return to Dongzhou, inquire about it, what was my reputation in Dongzhou before? Has anyone ever scolded me for a bad word and said a word about me? I used to borrow money, and at that time, I was the one who should have repaid the money, and the interest that should have been paid was the interest, and even the bank came to me and offered me a loan.
Of course, because of my momentary decision-making mistakes, the company is in today's situation. But as the saying goes, the country is easy to change, and its nature is difficult to change. You say, how can a credibility man like me be a fool? How can you owe money and not pay it back? To exaggerate, I want to make a comeback in the future, if I lose my reputation, what good will it do me? If you think about it, isn't that the truth......"
Yang Wentao really couldn't listen to it anymore, interrupted Liao Wenchang's words, and said: "The past is the past, it is all in the past, and it has nothing to do with the present." Today we are talking about the case of Yongchang Company, don't talk nonsense, it's nonsense. ”
When Liao Wenchang heard this, he stood up sharply: "Comrade judge, how do you speak?" Is this how your courts treat the masses? You say, which of my words is nonsense, and which one is not related to the case? Why don't you let me say it? ”
"Say, say, speak. He won't let you say it, I'll let you say it. Chen Molei motioned for Liao Wenchang to sit down and said, "You sit down, let's continue." I would like to hear about your previous deeds, I heard that you also served as a representative of the People's Congress of Dongzhou, at that time, Yongchang Company must be very beautiful in your hands. ”
Referring to the glorious past of Yongchang Company, Liao Wenchang suddenly became interested and began to talk endlessly: "That's all the old yellow calendar." But to be honest, at that time, it was indeed quite beautiful, I think the company was commended every year, and it was advanced every year, I remember one year, I was also an outstanding private entrepreneur, and I was received by the old mayor Qian Tongfeng......
Chen Molei seemed to listen with interest, and interjected a sentence or two from time to time, but in fact, his mind was not on this at all, and before entering the door, he had the idea of the white Chevrolet outside the door.
From time to time, he pulled out his phone and fiddled with it a few times. It seems that the inadvertent action is actually that he is contacting Li Jizhou.
He sent the photo of the car to Li Jizhou and asked him to find a way to find out what was going on with the car and how it was in Liao Wenchang's hands. Chen Molei speculated that with Liao Wenchang's previous net worth, he would not look at a car at this price, so it is possible that this white Chevrolet was just bought by Liao Wenchang from someone else.
In fact, it is not difficult to check this matter, but it takes some work, because second-hand car transactions do not have to go through the transfer procedures, so not all transaction information can be found in the traffic police department, which needs to be checked through the traffic police department to check the registered car owner, and then from the registered owner to investigate the vehicle transaction step by step, until Liao Wenchang is found. If it is found that this car is really a second-hand car bought by Liao Wenchang, it can be seized on the spot, although this car is worth twenty or thirty thousand now, but after all, mosquito legs are also meat.
Liao Wenchang's side, as long as he doesn't propose the matter, it's easy to say anything. He only cared about recalling those glorious historical years, and he didn't care about what Chen Molei did at all.
Just as Liao Wenchang was talking, a middle-aged woman walked into the store, only to see her carrying a half-convenient bag of ribs in her hand, glancing at Chen Molei, and then hurriedly entered the hut behind the cash register and closed the door.
Chen Molei originally thought that the hut was a toilet, but it turned out to be a kitchen. He glanced at the kitchen: presumably, this middle-aged woman is Liao Wenchang's wife Xin Lili, and it seems that the couple's food is quite good, at least tonight.
After a short while, Xin Lili walked out of the kitchen and sat behind the cash register to look through the ledger.
Chen Molei noticed that she was a little absent-minded as she looked through the ledger, as if she was listening to their conversation. Obviously, Xin Lili already knew their identities and intentions. It seems that this woman is not a fuel-efficient lamp either.
Just when Liao Wenchang was a little carried away, Chen Molei suddenly interjected and said: "Mr. Liao, since you are so good at business, it should be okay to run this store, right?" ”
As soon as Chen Molei finished speaking, he heard Lili cough.
Then, I saw Liao Wenchang waving his hand again and again and said, "No, no." It's my first time in this business, I have no experience, and I haven't started making money yet. I'm learning and doing at the same time. ”
"Really?" Chen Molei smiled slightly, and said in his words: "But how can I listen to the surrounding shops say that you have been open here for half a year." Since you haven't made money for half a year, why is your store still open? ”
Liao Wenchang was stunned, and then smiled bitterly: "Hey, it's difficult at the beginning of everything." Business is not good at the moment, but I don't want to give up halfway. I'm like this, I never admit defeat easily, I never bow to fate easily, no matter what I do, I always want to make an example. ”
In and out of the words, there was a bit of pride.
"Oh." Chen Molei nodded and continued: "I have a relative who also sells security doors, and the store is about the same size as yours, and the business is doing well. Alas, by the way, where do you buy the security doors here, what is the purchase price, and is the business bad because of the purchase price? Do you want me to ask a relative to help you see if you can buy from another manufacturer? ”
Chen Molei cared about Liao Wenchang on the lips, but in fact he set a trap for him.
Before saying these words, Chen Molei had already thought carefully in his heart: Liao Wenchang's answer was nothing more than two kinds, one was to directly state the purchase price, and the other was to refuse to answer on the grounds of trade secrets or industry rules, but this is not the point, what is hidden behind this is the point, because no matter which answer Liao Wenchang chooses, he will come to a conclusion - the security door in the store is Liao Wenchang's property. Since it is his property, it can be seized.
Of course, Chen Molei also knows that compared to the huge debt, this thing is a drop in the bucket, but it is also better than not being able to find any property.
However, Liao Wenchang did not fall for Chen Molei's trap at all. After many years in the business, he has already practiced the ability to be obedient and listen, he guessed Chen Molei's intentions, and said quietly: "Director Chen, don't bother you." In fact, I am mainly an agent for other manufacturers, and the installation is just a side business. Don't look at me, there are so many kinds of security doors here, in fact, they are all manufacturers. ”
He pointed in the direction of the shelf behind the cash register and said, "Look, this is the agent's license." ”
At this time, Chen Molei noticed that there was a license plate in one of the squares of the shelf. The license plate is stamped with a large red seal and is framed in a gold-rimmed glass frame. As for whether this license plate is real or fake, there is a question mark.
I only heard Liao Wenchang sigh and sighed: "To be honest, I also want to work alone, but I'm so poor now, where can I still have the money to buy goods?" Alas, it's all because of the lack of money. Now I have reached this point, but those creditor companies just don't believe me, they just refuse to let me go, and they have to force me to leave my hometown and hide debts everywhere. ”
Liao Wenchang gave a third answer, which did surprise Chen Molei. After this question and answer, he knew that this Liao Wenchang was very difficult to deal with.
However, Chen Molei would never hang himself from a tree. He secretly sent the brand of the anti-theft door to Shangguan Yun, and asked her to find out whether the relationship between Liao Wenchang and the anti-theft door manufacturer was a relationship, an agency relationship, or a buying and selling relationship.
Chen Molei speculated that the agency relationship is unlikely, because Liao Wenchang has been included in the list of dishonest executors, and if the anti-theft door manufacturer recruits an agent, it should not choose this kind of person with a record of dishonesty.
From the conversation just now, Chen Molei has determined that Liao Wenchang will definitely not take the initiative to fulfill his legal obligations, but he still maintains his composure: "Okay, then let's move on to the case." Do you have any plans for meeting your repayment obligations? ”
"What can you do?" When it came to the issue of repayment, Liao Wenchang frowned: "How is this business doing, whether it is to make money or lose money, it depends on the market situation, so I can't come up with any plans." If you insist that I come up with a plan today, then I can only say that I will pay it back when I have the money. Actually, if you want me to say, even if you make a plan, it doesn't make any sense, and the plan can't keep up with the changes. You think, even if I give a plan to repay the money, but I don't have any money in my hand at that time, and in the end, the plan is not a piece of waste paper. ”
He paused for a moment and continued, "If you want me to see, don't ask me for any repayment plan, and don't run to me again." When I have money, I will pay it back. Please rest assured, I can't run, do business, you have to pay attention to word-of-mouth reputation, right? Besides, I've finally settled down here, and I don't want to hide in Tibet anymore, I've had enough of those days. ”
As he spoke, he sighed again about the days when he used to hide from debts.
Liao Wenchang's words seem to make sense, but Chen Molei doesn't even believe in punctuation: Settle down? You don't have a house or land in Qijiang City, but you just rented such a store, what kind of settlement is this? Besides, the security doors in your store are less than a hundred sets in total, even if you can't buy them for a while, you can smear the soles of your feet at any time, just with these, who will believe that you have settled here? It's okay for you to deceive children with your high-sounding words, but if you want to use them to deceive me, it's better to save it.
