"I'm sure I'll get the money back. He put the money in front of me today, but I didn't take it. They're a big corporation, they do big things, there's a minimum investment requirement. My point is, let's all make money together..."
"Let's drink! Let's drink!" someone said hastily, raising their glass.
As everyone raised their glasses to drink, Yang Tianchi's words were interrupted, and he felt frustrated. He had kindly tried to help these people make money, but instead, he was not well received. If he hadn't been short of money to invest, he would never have approached them.
During the meal, Yang Tianchi seemed possessed, constantly talking to everyone about interest rates, Wall Street, and the international situation, which made the group of people unable to bear it.
"Mr. Yang, how about this, you take us there tomorrow, and if you get your money back by tomorrow, we'll co-invest," one of them suggested.
"Yes, yes, yes!"
"Don't worry, I'll take you there tomorrow. Just lay out all your savings, and you'll definitely make a killing."
After the banquet, the group gathered together and came to a consensus: Yang Tianchi had definitely been scammed, and they would get his money back tomorrow, and that would be the end of it.
The next morning, Lu Feng, dressed in an elegant suit and wearing black-rimmed glasses, took a sip of his coffee and looked up. Seven or eight people walked in from the doorway, with Yang Tianchi leading the way, excitedly talking to the others. The once quiet coffee shop suddenly became slightly noisy.
Lu Feng stood up and smiled, saying, "President Yang is very punctual."
"This is General Manager Li, the Marketing Director of Gaosheng Investment, a genuine overseas Chinese," Yang Tianchi introduced.
Hello!
Seven or eight people sized up Lu Feng as if he were a thief.
"Where's the money?"
"Give me the money!"
Lu Feng gave an awkward laugh and said, "Everyone, please have a seat. The rebate has been issued."
"What are you doing?" Yang Tianchi said with some dissatisfaction. "Sit down first. They are people in finance. Don't be rude."
Lu Feng sat down and spoke for a while. He took out several stacks of money from a bag next to him and put them on the table. Then he took out a receipt and various documents that needed to be signed, which looked very formal.
Yang Tianchi signed without saying a word.
"Overseas Chinese? Speak a few words of English and let me hear it!" A manager next to Lu Feng stared at him and questioned him.
Lu Feng looked up at him, while Yang Tianchi stared at the man and said, "Sixth Brother, what are you doing? Did you understand what they said? I'm sorry, President Lu, they're just some company executives who do manual labor. Please excuse their poor appearance."
“It’s alright, take this money. I told you yesterday that headquarters keeps urging me to raise the bar, and this money isn’t enough.” Lu Feng placed the money in front of him.
The person next to Yang Tianchi grabbed the money, glanced at it briefly, and, confirming it was no less than 50,000 yuan, said directly, "We're not betting anymore, goodbye!"
"Sixth Brother, what are you doing?" Yang Tianchi's expression changed, and he was somewhat annoyed. If it weren't for his sixth brother, they would have already started fighting.
"Let's go back, we're leaving!"
Two or three people pulled Yang Tianchi away, and Yang Tianchi struggled constantly. Several other people at the coffee shop looked over, seemingly very unhappy that their peace and quiet had been disturbed.
As soon as they left the coffee shop, Yang Tianchi broke free from the two people beside him and shouted, "What are you doing? I kindly brought you here to make money, and you're cutting off my source of income?"
"That's a fraud!"
"You're the scammer! Is every penny of that money missing? Where else can you find a 10% daily return? If you don't want to get rich, then get out of my way!"
"Do you trust Brother Liu? We're not investing anymore, he's definitely a scammer."
“If you keep doing this, I’m going to turn against you. I, Yang Tianchi, am making this clear today: I’m trying to help you out of kindness. If you don’t believe me, you can pool some money and invest 100,000 yuan with me. If you don’t let me invest and you’re blocking my path to wealth, don’t blame me for turning my back on you.”
Everyone present fell silent. The man called Sixth Brother sighed, feeling helpless. After all, they had known each other for many years, and if he went astray, he would be swindled out of his family and ruined.
Although 100,000 yuan is a lot, it's worth it to learn a lesson, especially since we only contributed about 40,000 yuan.
"OK!!"
Lu Feng watched Yang Tianchi being led away, but he wasn't actually worried, because he knew that Yang would definitely come back.
Looking at the doorway, he silently counted.
"three!"
"two!"
"one!"
Yang Tianchi pushed open the door and walked in, his face beaming with joy!
