Chapter 37 We Northeasterners really like to watch the fun.
"Let me tell you, my sister-in-law's business network has also gone through many twists and turns. At first, it was rented to a tea vendor, but it never made any money. Later, it was sublet to an outsider who said he wanted to run a bathhouse business. But the bathhouse business was not good at all. They even had a little girl who was doing bathing.
Ah? Not really a little sister. My sister is over 40 years old. I am only talking about her as a little sister to me.
Every day when I go downstairs to buy groceries, my little sister always brings a recliner to bask in the sun. Damn, their shop is in the shade, so they can’t get any sun, and all that comes in is a draft. I don’t know what kind of sun they are getting, and I don’t know if it’s killing me.
The boss made more and more money. At first, he drove a small Buick with three shield logos. Last month, the roast duck restaurant downstairs held an event. I took my wallet and went downstairs to buy duck. As a result, when I came downstairs, I saw that the boss picked up a new car with red cloth strips hanging on the four tires. Guess what car the boss is driving now?
Range Rover! This black car is taller than me, parked right in front of the store. Does it look impressive? Absolutely impressive!
After I bought the duck, I called my eldest sister-in-law to tell her that Mr. Zhang, the owner of the bathhouse downstairs, had made a lot of money, and the bath attendant could earn enough to buy a Land Rover even if he was idle every day.
My eldest sister-in-law called my younger sister-in-law and asked her how the bathhouse could make so much money when it was clearly not making any money.
A few days ago, Sasa searched Tianyancha online and found out that after the company that cheated her father of money filed for bankruptcy, the official Weibo account a long time ago was changed to another person's name. She went to Tianyancha and found a series of names of merged companies. Then she searched online and found a notice issued by the other company, saying that a listing press conference would be held and shareholders were welcome to bid. The location was in Shanghai. She came after she got the news and now stood in the lobby on the first floor, looking across at her aunt who was on the phone, listening to this story with her arms folded, and a travel bag at her feet.
"My younger sister-in-law didn't want to tell me at first, but my older sister-in-law pestered her so much that she told me directly. She also asked me not to tell us, but how could my older sister-in-law not tell me? We are as close as real sisters."
The other party spoke a little softly, covering the microphone, but the sound still came through.
"Okay, that boss, every few days in the second half of every month, he'll post a circle of friends saying, 'New arrivals in our store.'"
The aunt who was telling the story paused deliberately and said word by word:
"Exquisite tea, welcome all bosses to come and taste it."
Sasa frowned, not understanding what kind of fine tea it was, but then the other party hung up the phone with a click.
"Hello? Hello? Hello?" The aunt who was calling hung up and said to herself, "The signal is bad."
Seeing that her aunt had turned off the phone, Sasa tapped lightly on the table in front of her.
My aunt was wearing reading glasses. She tilted her head high and looked through the lenses at Sasa who was standing in front of her, sizing her up.
Sasa said, "Hello, Auntie. You're holding a press conference today, right? I heard it's a pre-launch press conference."
Auntie asked, "Yes, what are you doing here?"
Sasa smiled and said, "I want to invest. I saw the tender document online. Can I come?"
Sasa put the bag in her hand on the table. The whole layer was full of money. Aunt reached out and tried to grab it, but Sasa took it back.
Auntie glanced at Sasa and immediately put on a smile. "It's on the 47th floor. I'll swipe my elevator card and take you there."
Sasa was wearing a windbreaker and carrying a bag of money as she followed her aunt. The two of them walked through the corridor towards the elevator. Sasa had a pair of sunglasses on her head and a tight-fitting knitted short-sleeved shirt under her windbreaker, revealing her thin collarbone.
Auntie turned around and looked Sasa up and down. "You're really pretty, tall, and have fair skin. You look like someone who's rich and noble."
Sasa smiled. "Auntie, can you finish telling me that story? I want to know what fine tea is."
The aunt chuckled and said, "Bathhouses are for men and women. Bathing is divided into male and female categories. The best thing about bathhouses is that they can't have cameras installed. Where cameras can't be installed, pimping is the most profitable business."
Sasa's eyes moved for a moment and she said nothing more.
Seeing that Sasa didn't say anything, the aunt continued, "Of course, I'm not telling this story to gossip. I'm just saying that people should start making money early. It doesn't matter what kind of money it is. Once you make it, you've completed your primitive accumulation. Now it's a society where money makes money. Take the person I just called. She just retired and has some spare money. If she doesn't work hard at that age, who will take care of her when she's in her eighties or nineties and lying in bed?"
My aunt added, "With a look of wealth and prosperity like yours, you can make money no matter what you do. It's because God can't bear to let you suffer when you look like you have wealth and prosperity."
Sasa smiled politely at the other person's flattery, thinking to herself, damn, is retirement at the age of sixty considered the age to struggle?
The two of them got into the elevator. There was still some distance from the first floor to the 47th floor. After getting into the elevator, the aunt suddenly turned her head and looked at Sasa.
"Did anyone introduce you here?" Sasa said, "No, I saw an introducer online."
Auntie was excited and turned to look at Sasa. "Then if anyone asks, just say that Aunt Su brought you here. They will give Aunt Su face and take special care of you."
Sasa tried hard not to reveal her contempt, suppressing her helpless emotions and asking in a confused manner, "Auntie Su, I'm here to invest seriously, why do I need an introducer?"
Aunt Su said righteously, "What introducer? Aunt Su is your aunt. Aunt Su likes you. Seeing that you are beautiful and gentle, she wants to recognize you as her friend."
Aunt Su put on a flattering smile again and took a step closer to Sasa. "What do you think?"
Sasa said sincerely, "Yes, yes."
When the elevator reached the 30th floor, the door suddenly stopped. Aunt Su immediately became quiet and seemed afraid to speak.
Sasa looked at Aunt Su and knew that the 30th floor must be special. It turned out that the person who came up was Lin Baizhou.
Sasa looked at Lin Baizhou. It was obvious that both of them were undercover agents who came to "scam" each other. They pretended not to know each other and pretended not to see each other. There was also a man following behind Lin Baizhou, and no one spoke.
After entering the elevator, Lin Bozhou asked, "How much can five hundred be exchanged for?"
The other party said, "After the 500 is listed, it can be cashed out for hundreds of millions."
Lin Baizhou looked at the other person excitedly.
Sasa tried hard not to laugh unkindly, but couldn't help but chuckle, thinking that Lin Bozhou's skill in pretending to be an idiot was really superb.
Lin Bozhou quickly added, "Then after I cash out I can buy a house in Shanghai." His intention in saying this was obviously to suppress Sasa's laughter.
The other party said, "One hundred million for two luxury houses, and a dozen ordinary houses are no problem."
Lin Bozhou laughed and said, "The purchase restriction is just talk. We outsiders are not allowed to buy."
Sasa leaned against the elevator and listened to the two people chatting.
As soon as the elevator opened, Aunt Su's phone rang. She covered the phone and motioned for Sasa to go right. Sasa turned her head and looked at the sign on the side that read "National Exhibition New Energy Launch Conference."
Aunt Su turned around and walked towards the stairwell on the left with the phone, saying as she walked, "Oh, I know your signal was bad just now. We are about to start here, please come quickly."
Lin Baizhou looked at the people behind him and said, "Mr. Tian, are we going in from here?"
Sasa walked into the venue without looking at Lin Bozhou, just listening to the conversation between the two.
Mr. Tian said, "Mr. Lin, please wait for me after the press conference. I will draft a contract for you."
Mr. Tian went to pick up someone else. Lin Baizhou took a few quick steps and moved next to Sasa.
Sasa felt awkward, but still politely turned her head to look at him and said, "Hi, what a coincidence, you're here too."
Because she hasn't replied to his WeChat messages for a long time...
Lin Bozhou smiled and said, "You are quite brave. You dare to come alone. Why didn't those sisters come with you this time?"
Sasa smiled and said, "It's impossible to find helpers all your life. They also have their own things to do."
Lin Bozhou said, "Sit with me later. I'm afraid someone will recognize you. You've been in trouble with them before, so don't get caught."
Sasa nodded, then complained to herself, "I feel like I'm here as an undercover agent, like I'm going to be killed if I'm not careful."
Lin Bozhou laughed, "Killing you is impossible, but I will definitely push and hit you a few times while I'm chasing you out."
Sasa said "oh" and took off his sunglasses and put them on.
The two of them chose the last two seats to sit down. There were about 40 seats in the seating area. There were several reporters standing at the back. Most of the people present were old, weak, sick, and disabled. They all looked very old, and some were even using crutches.
Sasa whispered, "I'm not afraid of retribution for cheating people out of money..."
Lin Bozhou: "They all think that if you don't take care of yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth."
Sasa nodded, and a host came up and started to promote the product. I don't know who started to clap first, but then everyone started to applaud.
Sasa clapped along from below. Lin Bozhou turned to look at her and asked, "Aren't you afraid?"
Sasa turned away, looked at the host on the stage, and said softly, "I'm not afraid. I'm only dead, so what if I die? I'm here today to expose them."
Lin Bozhou suddenly turned around and asked her, "Where is your camera?"
Sasa said, "On the cuffs."
Lin Bozhou held Sasa's right hand, which was closest to him, and asked, "Is this the one?"
Sasa didn't hesitate, thinking that since they were already sleeping together, there was no need to act like a grown-up girl.
Lin Baizhou reached in and took out a very small object, which was really not much bigger than a needle, and then put it on his sleeve.
Sasa was about to speak when Lin Bozhou whispered, "Don't be afraid, I'm fine, they don't dare to mess with me."
Sasa said, "You are still so tough. I can't get my dad's money anymore."
"Why?"
Sasa: "The company that signed the contract has filed for bankruptcy, but the company that signed the contract with you hasn't filed for bankruptcy?"
"Maybe the amount is different so the companies they signed with are also different," said Lin Bozhou.
Sasa followed up by asking, "How much did you sign for?"
Lin Bozhou said: "Five million."
Sasa let out a sigh of relief. "I don't understand why they didn't file for bankruptcy despite the high amount of money they owed."
Lin Bozhou explained to her, "The construction period for the small-scale contracts is estimated to be only about one year, which is short. The high-value contracts we signed are about seven years, so it will take at least another six or seven years before they can file for bankruptcy. Otherwise, filing for bankruptcy before the construction period is completed is too deceptive and will be investigated."
Sasa thought it was very interesting and wanted to tell it to Sun Ziyi so that the current Tianjin factory girls could accumulate writing experience.
Lin Bozhou asked again, "So, after this, let's go out for dinner? There's a restaurant in Shanghai that costs four or five thousand yuan a meal, and it's all scrambled eggs with tomatoes. But they're very pious and they even massage the egg yolks. People online say that anyone who goes there is a fool."
Sasa glanced at him sideways.
Lin Bozhou laughed dryly, "Let's go and see what's going on."
Sasa said yes.
I think people from Northeast China sometimes really like to watch the fun.
