"Chen Xuelin, I'm sorry. I'm worse than an animal, my conscience has been clouded. Please forgive me!"
"Chen Xuelin, I'm sorry. I'm worse than an animal, my conscience has been clouded. Please forgive me!"
"......"
A miraculous scene is unfolding at the entrance of the geological team's residential compound.
The people in the long queue walked up to the young man one by one, handed him their receipts, and shouted this sentence loudly.
then.
After receiving the large sum of money, he left without saying a word.
They've completely lost face.
If I don't leave quickly, am I supposed to stay and be laughed at?
It's not that no one has thought of standing up for themselves and waiving the interest if necessary.
You can't slap yourself in front of so many people. How can you face others after that?
But Chen Dong's next words made everyone lose their temper.
"The total amount of your money is 180,000 yuan."
"Based on the calculation that you can earn 200 yuan a week from 10,000 yuan, that's twice in half a month, totaling 7,200 yuan."
“Since it was agreed beforehand that we would help everyone make money, we will give you whatever amount is due. I will give you every penny of the 7,200 yuan we earn. I, Chen Dong, would never stoop to taking your little bit of money.”
At this point, Chen Dong's lips curled up slightly, and after pausing for three seconds, he continued.
“But some of you said that the reason you went to my house to cause trouble was because I said before that in just a few days, you could earn 200 yuan from a principal of 10,000 yuan.”
"You all think I, Chen Dong, have absconded with the money just because I haven't returned for half a month. You're not wrong, are you?"
"Can I take that to mean that you've already concluded that I, Chen Dong, only traded treasury bonds once? Otherwise, you wouldn't have come to my house to cause trouble."
Chen Dong's words were forceful and well-reasoned.
Even those around him who heard it all agreed.
In fact, what Chen Dong said was what they were thinking.
Except for a very few who believed in Chen Xuelin's character, the vast majority of people were convinced that Chen Dong had absconded with the money.
These very few people, encouraged by others, sided with the majority.
Judging from the current situation, Chen Dong did not wrong them.
Since they're all birds of a feather, there's no worry about innocent bystanders being affected.
The crowd remained silent, their hearts filled with inner turmoil.
They all stared intently at Chen Dong, eager to hear what he would say next.
3,600 yuan is not a small amount; it is equivalent to three years' salary for an employee.
Even when averaged out per person, it amounts to a month's worth of household expenses.
At least, we have enough for basic necessities like firewood, rice, oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea.
Before Chen Dong could finish speaking, he glanced around and then continued.
“If you can be unrighteous, I can be unjust too, but my father, Chen Xuelin, is a respectable man. We cannot break the rules of our Chen family because of these things.”
"Those who are willing to apologize for their behavior will receive the full amount of both earnings; otherwise, they will only receive the amount of one earnings, and the remainder will be distributed among those who are willing to apologize."
That's all I have to say. The choice is yours.
His words had barely left his lips when, like water poured into boiling oil, they exploded in a cauldron.
Not only those involved, but even bystanders who were not directly involved were discussing it.
At this point, even bystanders have figured out the whole story.
"Good, well said!"
"That's a very magnanimous statement!"
"This is Chen Xuelin's son. Not bad, not bad at all. Even I, an outsider, am incredibly impressed by what he said. This is how a person should be!"
On the side.
Xiao Xinyi was extremely excited.
Chen Dong, the son, has really grown up. These heartwarming words would never have been uttered by Chen Dong in the past.
Looking at her son now, Xiao Xinyi's beautiful eyes were filled with pride.
"Look, this is my son, Xiao Xinyi."
She wanted nothing more than to announce to the whole world that Chen Dong was Xiao Xinyi's son.
As a mother, she felt extremely proud and honored to have such an outstanding son.
"......"
Looking at his mother-in-law beside him, who was extremely excited, Lin Zhiyuan was speechless.
“Mother-in-law, you’ve got it wrong… Don’t be fooled by your son Chen Dong’s appearance.”
"Look...look at the people around us, they all seem to have been brainwashed."
"These bastards, they've been sold out by your son, and they're still counting the money for him."
Lin Zhiyuan rolled his eyes, inwardly complaining.
He really wanted to tell Xiao Xinyi that they had made a killing on this trip.
It's not comparable to earning 200 yuan from 10,000 yuan.
They made more than double their profit.
These ignorant people get incredibly excited just hearing about 7200 yuan.
Little did they know, Chen Dong used their 180,000 yuan to make a profit of over 200,000 yuan.
Of the more than 200,000 yuan in profit, only 7,200 yuan was given out as a share, which is not even a drop in the ocean, and they should be grateful.
So, who else is there?
Lin Zhiyuan was completely convinced.
My brother-in-law is incredibly cunning, manipulating human nature to the extreme.
Once the matter is over, everyone should give a thumbs up and say a few words of praise.
But then again...
Chen Dong's character and actions can only be described as 'magnanimous'.
No wonder Ah Hu, Jiang Fei, and their gang are so devoted to Chen Dong.
Even Lin Zhiyuan was startled when he heard Ah Hu's declaration.
To take out all one's money and demand the lives of another person's entire family—this goes beyond mere fanaticism.
Chen Dong has become the faith of this group of people.
