Chapter 53: Cracked Egg



Ever since a conversation with Li Cheng, the man who gave President Hou a headache, a strange thing happened in President Hou's home.

That is, every day at dinner time, a girl with a sweet appearance and nice voice would come to her house to deliver roast duck.

At first, President Hou and her family thought that someone wanted to ask her for a favor, or that it was sent by someone with bad intentions, so she refused at first.

But when the girl with the soft and pleasant voice told her that the roast duck was a new product developed in their store and was given to customers for tasting, and asked for their opinions, President Hou smiled and accepted the roast duck.

After three days of this, President Hou felt something was wrong.

Of course, it’s not that the roast duck tastes wrong, but that something is wrong with this matter.

This roast duck doesn't look cheap, and it comes with a lot of side dishes. Which restaurant would be so generous to give it away for three consecutive days, and just send it to their own home.

President Hou was puzzled, so he found the phone number of the roast duck restaurant on the roast duck packaging bag and called them.

After the call was connected, President Hou realized that the person answering the phone was the girl who delivered the roast duck to her home. When she heard that President Hou was asking about the roast duck, the girl asked her if she was tired of eating it.

After eating roast duck for three consecutive days, President Hou was indeed tired of it. Hearing the other party's words, President Hou said that he was indeed tired of it and asked the other party not to send it anymore.

The other party agreed and hung up the phone. After the other party hung up the phone, President Hou remembered that he had not yet delivered his written opinion to the other party.

President Hou was a serious person, and he couldn't eat someone else's roast duck without even complaining. So she called the number again.

This time, a man answered the phone. President Hou was stunned for a moment and asked if it was the roast duck restaurant.

The other party said yes, and then said to her: "President Hou, can't you recognize my voice?"

President Hou was stunned for a moment, wondering when he had an acquaintance at the roast duck restaurant. But the accent of the man just now did sound familiar to him.

Just as President Hou was trying to figure out who this person was, the person on the other end of the phone said, "Hello, President Hou, I'm Li Cheng."

"Li Cheng? Why are you there?" President Hou shouted.

Li Cheng told her that he was friends with the owner of the roast duck restaurant, so he was here. He was just helping to answer the phone, and unexpectedly received a call from President Hou.

President Hou hung up the phone in doubt, and naturally forgot to tell us his tasting opinions.

Is what Li Cheng said true? If it is true, then it would be a miracle!

Ever since President Gao seemingly casually said that Li Cheng should go see President Hou when he was free, and said that President Hou was a good person, Li Cheng has been thinking about what President Gao meant.

It is obvious that President Gao wants Li Cheng and President Hou to have a good relationship, or at least not to be in such obvious opposition as they are now.

But Li Cheng asked around and found out that President Hou basically never went to work, and almost no one knew what kind of person she was.

Li Cheng was a little confused, thinking to himself, "There are people who slack off like this." Others who slack off and fish at least go down to the river, but this one is really amazing. She stood by the river and the fish jumped into her hand.

Li Cheng found President Hou's home address and phone number from the office's internal documents. Next, Li Cheng began his trickery, having Han Daya's Roast Duck Restaurant deliver roast duck to President Hou's home every night.

Of course, the words said by the girl who delivered the roast duck were also taught by Li Cheng.

Whether it's a mule or a horse, you should take it out for a walk!

President Hou is the vice president and also serves as the discipline inspection team leader of the branch. An unsigned letter of accusation kept her busy for half the night, so Li Cheng wanted to see whether President Hou was a perfect egg.

As a result, President Hou not only enjoyed the free food, but also ate it for three days before he realized something was wrong.

Just think about it! A roast duck that's golden brown and red inside, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and a generous portion of side dishes—just one look and you know it's going to be expensive.

After hearing what the little girl said, most people might think it’s normal to eat it once, but would probably be suspicious if they eat it twice, and they probably wouldn’t eat it the third time even if you beat them to death.

But President Hou ate it three times in a row, which shows that he is a person who likes to take advantage of small things.

In the roast duck restaurant, Li Cheng listened to the "beep" sound in the microphone, then put the microphone back to its place with a smile.

At this time, Han Dayuzi came over and said to him, "Will you send it again tomorrow?"

Li Cheng smiled and said, "No need to send it off."

Han Dayazi didn't ask any more questions, and then asked Li Cheng if he wanted to have a few drinks together tonight.

Li Cheng had something to do tonight and had to see Du Dapeng and the others off. The place they'd booked for dinner was a seafood restaurant in the alley. So, Li Cheng apologized and said, "Let's do it another time. I think we've finally figured out the driving school thing, so we can sit down and talk about it then."

Han Dayuzi was excited when he heard that the driving school matter was going well. He suddenly hugged Li Cheng and spun around a few times, then shouted that Li Cheng was his brother, his real brother.

Li Cheng didn't struggle. He let him make enough noise before saying, "Since we're brothers, I'll say a few more words to save you from complaining about me later."

Han Daya was stunned when he heard this and looked at Li Cheng stupidly.

Li Cheng asked, "How long did it take you to make three million last time?"

Han Dayuzi thought about it, then said, "About ten days."

Li Cheng paused for a moment and said, "Then the amount you invested in the stock market is probably between 3.5 million and 3.7 million."

Han Daya was confused and thought, how do you know this? I haven't told anyone about this!

Don't show off your wealth and don't speak ill of others. This is the ancestral motto of the Han family!

But facing Li Cheng, he could only whisper: "Three million six hundred thousand, invested all at once..."

Seeing his mysterious expression, Li Chengxin thought, "Is this difficult to calculate?" The market was like this at the time, with almost continuous limit-up increases. Anyone who has traded stocks can calculate it.

"Yes, three million and six hundred thousand. It only took ten days to make three million. Isn't it exciting and satisfying?" Li Cheng said in a teasing tone.

Han Da Yazi kept nodding his head and saying, "It's so enjoyable, so fucking enjoyable..."

Seeing his complacency, Li Cheng added, "But you know what? When the stock market crashed, some people committed suicide by jumping off buildings."

Han Dayuzi had heard of this kind of thing, so after Li Cheng finished speaking, he chuckled and said, "That's what they deserve. They didn't meet a god like you, brother."

Li Cheng's face twitched, and he thought to himself that this person has the mentality of a gambler after all. He only believes that he can win and does not believe that he will lose. Is it appropriate for such a person to invest in a driving school?

Looking at Han Dayuzi, Li Chengxin said that when he has time, he must give him a lesson and let him know what real investment is.
