Chapter 45 Bow to Money
I know that I was wrong in this matter, but there are reasons for it.
This inexplicable punishment seems like the master is angry with me.
I've been absent from work without reason before, but has he ever made a fuss about it?
Before I could open my mouth to argue, Jiang Yichen said coldly, "If you don't want to stay in the company, you can go directly to Song's, as long as Song's dares to hire you."
I vaguely heard a hint of threat.
I reacted immediately.
It’s because I accepted Song Le’s help.
But so what? He was the one who refused to help.
I tried my best to suppress the anger in my heart, raised my eyes to look him in the eye, and answered firmly, "I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay in the company."
I clearly felt that Jiang Yichen's face changed after he said this.
The hostility just now was a little less.
But what he didn't know was that I just wanted to find out whether my family's bankruptcy had anything to do with him.
"Since you want to stay in the company, you should know what to do and what not to do."
There was still a hint of warning in Jiang Yichen's tone, but it was much gentler than before.
Taking this opportunity, I pretended to be nice to him and begged him to reduce the punishment.
As a human being, you have to bow to money.
This is my master.
Although Jiang Yichen looked down on my behavior and mocked me, he finally reduced the punishment by half.
Back in the studio, I told Lao Mo my idea, hoping that he would help me improve the content of the live broadcast.
When he heard that I wanted to do a charity live broadcast, he immediately supported me.
After all, there are very few anchors on the Internet who choose the same track as me.
If it can really be done, it will not only become a leader in the public welfare field, but also help the families of the victims.
This can be considered killing two birds with one stone.
After finalizing the general direction, Lao Mo helped me modify the content of the live broadcast room.
I deliberately set aside a section in the live broadcast room to broadcast information about missing children.
Although I don’t have many fans in my live broadcast room, many of my old fans who support me have seen me transform and have voluntarily forwarded my posts.
For a time, it attracted many passers-by to come and watch.
My enthusiasm suddenly increased.
Seeing the support from my fans, I feel motivated and want to spread charity even more.
In the next few days, although not much profit was made, the number of fans increased by tens of thousands during these few days.
For the sake of performance, I focused more on live streaming.
Just when I thought everything was going smoothly, a phone call broke the situation.
Looking at the strange number, I couldn't help but feel a little surprised, but I still answered it.
As soon as the call was connected, I heard my mother crying from the receiver.
My heart tightened involuntarily, and I quickly asked.
Only then did I realize that the person who called was my neighbor.
At this time, someone was making trouble at home and hoped that I could go back quickly.
Worried that something might have happened to my parents, I could only temporarily explain the situation to my fans and rush home.
As soon as I entered the door, I saw the house was in a mess, the tables and chairs were overturned on the ground, and there was a group of people gathered inside.
I pushed through the crowd and walked inside, only then did I see my mother kneeling on the ground, crying bitterly.
I quickly stepped forward to protect her, stared at the group of people around me warily, and asked in a cold voice, "Who are you? What are you doing in my house?"
The group of people looked very confident. When they saw me coming, they looked me up and down before telling me the whole story.
It turned out that my father had borrowed money from a loan shark.
He said it was to pay off a debt.
This group of people came to collect debts.
When I understood the general situation, I couldn't help but feel panicked, but even so, I tried to stay calm.
I have known since I was a child that usury is something that should not be touched, but I never expected that it would happen to one of my family members.
But I can't lose my composure now.
My mother kept crying and the group of people kept begging for mercy.
It’s a pity that those people didn’t care. They glanced at us indifferently and then set their eyes on me.
"If you can't pay the money back, use your daughter as collateral."
When the debt collector said this, there was a hint of amusement in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, my mother immediately held me in her arms and refused without thinking.
"No, you can't touch my daughter."
Her refusal brought down the wrath of the debt collector.
The man kicked her mercilessly and said viciously, "I think your family is full of cheap bones. If you can't pay me, you must die."
He kicked him a few more times to vent his anger.
Seeing my mother being beaten, I felt heartbroken. I struggled out of her arms and stopped the man's actions.
"I will pay back whatever my dad borrowed from me. I will pay it all back."
After hearing my answer, the man shouted coldly, "You pay? Sure, your father owes us three hundred thousand. If you can't pay it back within a month, you can go with us."
Even if it is three hundred thousand, it is an astronomical figure for our family now.
Before I could answer, my dad quickly denied it, "I didn't borrow that much. Why should we pay back 300,000?"
When the man heard this, he became even more angry and hit him several times.
I couldn't bear to see him being beaten, so I didn't care about anything else and immediately agreed, "I'll pay it back. Just one month. Please don't beat my parents anymore."
The man finally stopped.
As if remembering something, I frowned and said, "I will pay you back within a month, but you can't continue to double the amount."
The thing that compounds interest is not like my temper that can be reduced at will.
"Okay, I'll do as you say. I'll come back to ask for the money in a month."
Seeing that the man agreed, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
They reached a verbal agreement with me and left directly.
Looking at the mess in the house, I just felt very tired.
Even so, I still forced myself to help my parents up and clean up the house.
My father felt very guilty and apologized to me repeatedly.
"Momo, I'm sorry, it's all Dad's fault that you've been hurt. My old bones are dragging you down again."
Not wanting him to blame himself, I just shook my head and comforted him with a smile, "It's okay, Dad. As long as I'm here, nothing can't be overcome."
Having said that, I still feel unsure.
Three hundred thousand a month, I don’t know how I can make that.
After settling my parents, I rushed back to the company to live broadcast.
Now the only way for me to make money is to increase the popularity, get bonuses from the company and revenue from live broadcasts.
So, I started to live broadcast day and night, and gradually became the first one to go and the last one to go home.
There were several times when I was completely exhausted after staying up late at night.
But what I didn’t expect was that Jiang Yichen actually discovered this.
He pushed the door open and tried to end my live broadcast.
"Gu Mo, it's already late, go home quickly. If you die suddenly here, the company will not be responsible."
