Chapter 137 Processing
On February 20th, which was a holiday, Chen Chuan and a group of partners who participated in the operation had a dinner at the Duyi Hotel.
Many of the team members were actually there out of favor, but he also knew what everyone liked, so before the meal, he checked the accounts and distributed the rewards according to everyone's contribution. He also said that he hadn't had time to deal with the implant and the gold note yet, and would contact everyone later.
This approach proved to be correct. It was obvious that everyone was happier and the atmosphere was more lively during the meal after the money was distributed.
Wei Changan then picked up his glass and toasted Chen Chuan, saying, "Junior, now that you've learned how to drive, why don't you get your driver's license and buy a car too?"
Chen Chuan thought about it and decided to take it slow, because the price of a car was really not cheap and there were many things to consider. Although he got a lot of money, the cost of his fighting training would undoubtedly be more.
Besides, if he goes to do a commission, there will naturally be a company car and he doesn't have to worry about it. If it is a team, he can just rent a car, which is convenient and saves trouble.
He said, "We'll talk about this later. However, Brother Wei, for some reason, this commission will not be assigned to a client for the time being. It may take a year before it is announced. Brother Wei may have to wait for his promotion to senior client."
Wei Changan leaned back in his chair, looking very relaxed. He smiled and said, "Why are you saying this? Brother Wei, I still owe you a favor. Even if it weren't for this, it's still my duty to help a brother. As for the senior client, that's not a problem."
Lin Xiaodi was sitting next to Ren Xiaotian. Although she did not participate in the raid on the camp this time, she did contribute by guarding the radio station and delivering messages, so she was counted as a part of it. Now she was happily calculating how many snacks, headdresses and new dresses she could buy.
Meanwhile, Wei Dong had just started eating when he began stuffing his food without a care in the world. If one were to describe his feelings about this operation, it was definitely not satisfying. Aside from the infiltration, the rest of the experience was almost entirely gunfights. Although he had learned how to fire a gun, he quickly emptied the magazine and never hit anyone. Instead, he managed to knock down several crossbow-wielding men with his bare hands, and likely didn't even engage in a head-on fight with him.
Wu Han was sitting next to him at the moment. He admired Wei Dong very much. At that time, the two of them were cooperating in the action. This junior would beat whoever he was told to beat, and never asked why. When they fought, they were so quick and efficient.
He thought to himself that next time he had a commission, he would bring his junior along.
At this time, the gunman named Ding took the initiative to toast Chen Chuan and said, "Brother Chen, if there is another operation like this next time, please be sure to bring me, Ding Liao, with you."
Chen Chuan picked up his glass and clinked it with his, then said with a smile, "I can't usually invite a skilled player like Brother Ding. Of course, I welcome you to help me."
Ding Liao laughed and said, "It's settled then." Then he drank the drink in the cup in one gulp.
Most of the people here are fighters, so they don't drink. However, he doesn't like drinking because he feels that only by keeping his mind clear can he fight more accurately.
The meal lasted more than two hours, and after it was over, everyone came out together.
When Chen Chuan walked out of the gate of Duyi Hotel, he looked back and glanced up. He remembered that he had also had a dinner here before entering school last year. In the blink of an eye, he had experienced so many things.
At that time, he was only thinking about retaking the Wuyi College exam, but now, he began to plan how to go to the central city.
He withdrew his gaze and looked forward, his steps becoming more steady.
With a horn honking, Wei Changan drove over and waved to Chen Chuan and the others from inside the car, "Junior, there are a few other classmates here. Can I take you back?"
Chen Chuan didn't hesitate and said, "Sorry to bother you, Brother Wei."
After taking the bus back to school, he returned to the dormitory, washed up, sat down in the living room, and took out the string of bone beads. He had looked at them over the past few days. This thing can stimulate the alienated tissue. One bead can last about four or five days. There are thirteen on it. If used continuously, it can last for nearly two months.
Although it feels a little less, it was picked up for free anyway, so there is no regret. The commissioned task still needs to be continued. Fortunately, there is a financial support, so there is no need to be too anxious.
In the following period of time, while waiting for Gao Ming's reply, he began to accept ghost story commissions from the company.
The company gave him a lot of conveniences, so he returned the favor and decided to increase the number of completed commissions in order to improve the company's evaluation in the Government Affairs Office, so he selected those that were easier to handle.
The first one is the "uneaten corn", which was found in a village outside Yangzhi City. It happened because a villager ate half a corn and went out for an urgent matter. When he came back, he found that the corn that had been eaten had grown back.
At first he thought someone was playing a joke on him, but after a few times, he was surprised to find that no matter how much corn he ate, it would grow back the next day, and not just one, but it seemed that the same was true for the whole bag of corn he brought back.
However, the corn weighed only about 30 pounds, which was not a lot, and could not be sold at a high price. If he really sold it, he was afraid that it would be stolen, so he simply ate it as food every day. Not only did he eat it himself, he also distributed it to some familiar villagers. Some villagers were worried about it, but he did not take it seriously.
However, the villagers who ate the corn soon discovered that they could no longer eat anything else except the corn. After a few days, their bodies became extremely weak and tired, and they became thinner and thinner. However, these people did not feel that there was anything wrong and did not care about the reminders of others.
It was not until these villagers starved to death one by one that the village realized something was wrong. They thought there must be something wrong with the corn and burned it all. But this did not solve the problem. After a while, the corn appeared again and similar things happened again.
After several incidents, the villagers felt they could not handle the situation, so they reported it to the higher authorities. The village management office then delegated the matter, but no one came to take care of it. Now, more than two years have passed.
When Chen Chuan arrived at the village, the entire village was already deserted. There was a warning sign at the door, and the people from the management office who accompanied him here did not dare to go in.
He walked into the village alone, and when he approached a house, his second self began to blur slightly.
He pushed open the half-open wooden door and walked into the house. When he came to the kitchen, he saw a few fresh corns on the stove. The corn kernels were golden and plump, and gave off a fragrant smell, as if they had just been cooked and taken out of the pot. Just looking at them made him hungry.
After taking a few glances, he walked out and walked around the entire village. He found similar things in other places, almost every household had one.
He had read the information before coming here. It's not that ordinary people can't handle this thing, but they can't simply burn it. Doing so will cause it to spread.
In fact, as long as you eat the whole corn cob when you first discover it, you will be fine. So if someone can give you some advice at the beginning, perhaps the tragedy that followed can be avoided.
At this point, it becomes a little troublesome to deal with. The food needs to be eaten by livestock and then divided among the livestock within a day.
After reading it, he had an idea in his mind. He returned to the company and told Ren Shu about it, and asked him to arrange someone to handle it.
Ren Shu was very excited when he heard that he could also participate in handling ghost stories. The young partners were also very excited when they heard about it. They immediately spent money to hire people and buy animals. It only took one day to deal with the matter. After returning, everyone felt a sense of accomplishment.
Chen Chuan shook his head. It was worth being happy that these things were dealt with, but he felt that if he could provide some ghost story consulting services, perhaps such things could be avoided.
He also mentioned this to Ren Shu. If it were another company, they would definitely not agree. Wouldn't that mean losing business?
But Ren Shu and the others didn't think so. They simply couldn't finish all the orders in their hands at the moment. Even if they ran out of orders, they could go to the Government Affairs Office. Moreover, the strange stories that could be handled by ordinary people themselves were obviously a minority. There was no hindrance at all. On the contrary, it could enhance the company's reputation.
The most crucial point was that it was proposed by Chen Chuan, an important partner, so it must be taken seriously. Therefore, Ren Shu agreed without any compromise.
Since this commission did not require much effort, Chen Chuan went on to handle some smaller commissions.
However, perhaps because the time interval was too long, not only did the clients disappear, but even the ghost stories could not be found.
But no matter what, as long as it is confirmed that the ghost story no longer exists, it can naturally be included in the list of commissioned solutions. This is very useful for the company's evaluation, and the company also gave him a reward, so it is not a wasted trip.
The end of the month is coming soon.
That morning, just as Chen Chuan was getting up, the phone rang. He picked it up and heard a familiar voice: "Hello, cousin? It's me, Gao Ming."
Chen Chuan's spirits lifted slightly. He had not urged Gao Ming before because he knew that the latter was always serious and responsible. If he had not called him, it must be that he had not yet found out the truth. But now that he called him, it seemed that there was a result.
After he responded, Gao Ming continued, "Cousin, I've already thoroughly investigated the case, but there are some things I can't discuss over the phone. So, I'll be back on my day off early next month, and we can meet and talk then."
Chen Chuan knew this matter was quite important and it was inconvenient to discuss it over the school phone. He thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's meet next month and discuss it."
After he hung up the phone, before he took two steps out, the phone rang again. He picked it up again, and this time it was Ren Shu's voice that came from the inside: "Mr. Chen, are you free today?"
Chen Chuan asked, "What about the commission?"
"Yes, that's right. Someone from the Jia County Government Office next door came to our company and asked us to solve a strange story. I wonder if Mr. Chen is available?"
County Government Office?
Chen Chuan thought about it and realized that even the County Government Affairs Office was a government department. Although he had obtained the necessary evaluations, it did not mean that such evaluations were useless. If he could handle such commissions well and accumulate more, it would be very helpful for him to obtain the armor certificate in the future.
So after thinking about it, he said, "Okay, I'll come right away."
