Finally, the company told them to come back at 3 PM to get a refund.
Li Mancang and his men waited there. Seeing how difficult it was to get a refund, the villagers all decided to go for it.
Those who were initially very confident after hearing the introduction are now having doubts as they watch these people get their money back and forth. They're all stuck here with the situation.
My colleagues are furious. The deal that was supposed to be a sure thing is now probably going to fall through. The client has relatives and other people involved, and one person can influence many others, so the impact is significant. That's all commission, all money!
Song Shiyu sat in his office with a gloomy face. The Li family just couldn't stand to see him doing well. What did it have to do with the Li family that he was pulling in villagers? Since they were making trouble like this, he would make sure their daughter didn't have a good time either.
There were no more problems in the afternoon, and everyone got their money back, including principal and interest.
Liu Cuihua took all the money from Xinghu, Xingyuan, and Xingping and kept it in her own hands, saying, "Just consider this money as a scam."
Xinghu and his brothers...
"Mom, this is all the money we have..." Xingsong said pitifully.
Liu Cuihua sneered, "You have money to invest, but I won't even see a penny of it if you throw it into a trench. Just keep this money with me for now, so you don't have to send it back later."
Liu Cuihua thought these guys were out of their minds; they might regret it before the money even got home and send it back.
Xingping gave a dry laugh. He had gone to chase after his wife that morning, and she had said the same thing: take it out and put it back immediately. Why not make money if you can? His mother just couldn't stand seeing them doing well.
After receiving their refunds, the villagers left the company building and were taken by bus to the bank to deposit their money before returning to their resettlement homes.
On the bus, Li Mancang clasped his hands in greeting to everyone and said, "Fellow villagers, young and old, you all saw how hard it was to get this money back today. Everyone, keep your wallets tight. This is all I can do. I can only help this one time. If you continue to invest and get scammed, don't come looking for me, Li Mancang."
"Full position? No way, we're not investing," everyone said.
Everything had been said and everything that needed to be done had been done. The two reporters went back to organize their notes and communicate with the police. The police were investigating the whereabouts of the funds and planning the arrests, which wouldn't be resolved in just a few days. Li Mancang was afraid that these people would regret it when they got home, so he sent the money back and made the unpleasant things clear upfront.
“Li Fenglan brought Song Shiyu back to the village. Everyone only went to see their company because of the Li family’s reputation and Song Shiyu’s introduction. This whole thing started because of our family, and we’ve made amends now. Any further investment is just a personal matter. If you make money, keep it to yourself. If anything goes wrong, don’t blame our family. It has nothing to do with us. We believe this is a scam, and the end result will be that everyone loses everything,” Wu Zhiqi continued to reiterate.
"Don't worry, we won't vote. If anyone does vote, we'll vouch for your family. It has nothing to do with you," the villagers said.
When they arrived at the resettlement housing, many people were waiting for them to return at the shops near the entrance. These people had been away for a day, and they all felt a bit lost.
"What's going on? Have you refunded it yet?" someone immediately asked.
"Don't even mention it, returning it was such a hassle," someone sighed.
"Tell us how difficult it is!" Those who had invested but hadn't gone yet immediately stepped forward to ask.
Everyone chattered away about what had happened that day.
Some people say, "It's such a big company, it takes them a few days to go through the process, it's no big deal, they still pay interest anyway."
"Are you out of your mind? Is that what you said when you invested the money? You're a liar! I'm going to get my money back tomorrow!"
"Those are such big companies, their finances are all very regulated. They have to report and get approval from every level of management before they can spend any money. That's the rule, you guys don't understand anything."
