The worker suddenly realized.
The Liu Zhong in front of him was not his benefactor, but a scalper who provided services for a fee.
He also understood that the reason why the staff in the hall made things difficult for him was to ask for a little kickback... but they couldn't say it out loud, so they relied on intermediaries like Liu Zhong to help them collect the kickbacks...
Oh my God, why is this society so dark?
Why don’t government employees think about serving the people, but only about how to benefit themselves?
And the scalper in front of me is actually the most hateful. If they didn't exist, the staff in the hall might not be so rampant... They wouldn't become unscrupulous just to get benefits...
The worker frowned, and his eyes, which had become clear when he saw hope, dimmed again in an instant... He felt like he had jumped from one trap into another, and was stabbed by the sharp spikes in the pit...
"You...just tell me, how much money will you need to help me?"
The workers sighed helplessly. In order to enjoy their retirement benefits smoothly, they had to compromise with this unhealthy trend.
Seeing that he had come to his senses, Liu Zhong smiled smugly and said, "How many years have you worked here? Thirty-five years? That's about two thousand yuan a month for your pension, right? ... Then you can pay me based on your monthly pension, and I promise I can get it done for you today!"
ah?
A month's pension of more than two thousand yuan?
The workers were stunned. They didn't expect Liu Zhong to ask for such a high price...
Seeing that he was a little hesitant, Liu Zhong quickly explained with a smile, "If you don't ask me to do it, even if you come here every day, it probably won't be done. After all, your documents are incomplete and don't meet the regulations... Think about it, isn't it worth it to pay more than 2,000 yuan to help you solve such a big thing? If you delay it for one more day, you will lose, not me, so you should think about it carefully."
"Ah..." The retired worker sighed and said helplessly, "Okay, as long as you can help me get the job done... Can I give you the money after the job is done?"
Liu Zhong shook his head and said, "It's against the rules to pay you after the fact. I told you that I will only take a small part of the money. The bulk of it will go to the clerks in the hall... They won't give anything until they see the rabbit. I can't advance the money for you to do the work. If you run away after the work is done, who can I turn to? Don't you think this makes sense?"
The retired worker was speechless for a moment when he was asked back, and nodded as if possessed by a spirit. "You are right, what you said makes sense... As long as it can be done, I will pay you... I will give it to you now..."
As he spoke, he reached into the pocket of his woolen coat and searched for a long time...he took out all the fifty and twenty coins, and finally gathered together a little over seventeen hundred yuan...less than two thousand.
He held the money in his hand and said to Liu Zhong in embarrassment, "This is all I have. It's the money I'm going to use to buy medicine... Is this okay with you?"
From the moment the worker took out a stack of money, Liu Zhong's eyes were fixed on the money.
He thought to himself, seventeen hundred is fine, if I give one thousand yuan to that woman in the hall, I can still keep more than seven hundred yuan... I am lucky today to come across such a thing, and I can make a lot of money!
He pretended to be a little embarrassed, and when the atmosphere was right, he sighed and said, "Forget it, forget it. Seeing that you are in a difficult situation, I will just do a good deed... Hey, I am just running errands for you, and I can't earn a dime. This money has to be sent to the people in the hall... Okay, give me the money and your materials, and I will do it for you..."
The retired worker was too honest to see through Liu Zhong's tricks. He even bowed to him with gratitude and said "thank you" several times in a row.
Just as he was about to hand the money to Liu Zhong, a siren sounded from far away.
All the people doing business at the entrance of the hall turned their heads and looked in the direction where the sirens came from.
There were two off-road vehicles with "SWAT" logos and a black business car. The three vehicles were lined up neatly and drove rapidly towards the entrance of the hall.
Liu Zhong was also dumbfounded, holding the money handed over by the worker in one hand, and his eyes never left the approaching police car...
He wondered, no one had broken the law, why did so many police cars suddenly come?
Is a big leader coming?
Are these cars here to lead the way?
"Fuck, these leaders...are so ostentatious when they go out, so fucking corrupt!"
Liu Zhong cursed inwardly, turned around to take the money, moistened his fingers with saliva, and began to count the money skillfully.
