Chapter 24 1. In order to repay the kindness of knowing you, have you really lost your bottom line?

In a suite of a star-rated hotel near Qingqing South Road in Gongbei, Zhuhai, Jiao Tianming, the chief financial officer of Volkswagen Group, hurriedly took off his pants and pressed a young woman on the bed. Jiao Tianming was in a bad mood. He had suffered successive defeats in Macau casinos and had already owed millions of dollars in gambling debts.His own boss, Gu Weimin, has recently become furious for no reason and scolded the subordinates severely.So on the bed, his movements were a bit violent, and the woman below couldn't help begging for mercy: "Brother Jiao, it hurts too much, stop, stop..."

At least on the bed, Jiao Tianming will never be sympathetic.He grabbed the other person's long hair, pressed it hard on the pillow, and growled like crazy: "Stop what? I feel comfortable only if you hurt me." bang bang bang!At this time, there was a heavy knock on the door.Before Jiao Tianming could react, someone outside opened the door with a key card. Three burly men rushed in, the leading one with tattoos all over his arms.Jiao Tianming covered his lower body with a sheet, and shouted, "What are you doing?" The leading man came up and slapped Jiao Tianming: "You bastard, how dare you sleep with my wife!" Immediately afterwards, the three of them gathered around and beat the naked Jiao Tianming.

A few minutes later, Jiao Tianming curled up next to the sofa, bleeding from his nose and mouth.He trembled and said: "My good man, I didn't know she was your wife. Besides, from the beginning to the end, it was your wish and I didn't force her." "You love me? Fuck you, this is what I beat you!" The big man stood up from the sofa and kicked Jiao Tianming fiercely.The big man took out his mobile phone, dialed the number and said, "Do you know what I do? Do you know who my boss is? If you dare to sleep with my wife, you are tired of work! I will call my boss right away and let him clean you up." You bastard!"

Half an hour later, the boss showed up.Jiao Tianming was lying on the ground, looking with his "panda eyes", he felt that this person looked familiar.At this time, the boss who had just entered the room exclaimed: "Isn't this the original company's Mr. Jiao?" Jiao Tianming also remembered, isn't this boss Wu Xinfu, the former head of the security department of Volkswagen Group?I heard that after Wu Xinfu left the company, he was in the underworld in Macau, but he didn't want to meet here.Although the two didn't have much friendship before, Jiao Tianming still called out subconsciously: "Old Wu, come and save me. This is all a misunderstanding."

Before he finished speaking, several iron fists hit Jiao Tianming's face again.The big man yelled: "Boss, don't listen to his nonsense. The one who sleeps with other people's wives is this bastard." "Stop it first!" Wu Xinfu yelled, "Speak up if you have something to say. I know Mr. Jiao, but he is a man of status. By the way, return the clothes to Mr. Jiao. What's the matter with being so naked!" After Jiao Tianming got dressed, Wu Xinfu tossed him a cigarette: "Smoking, suppress the shock first. Mr. Jiao, you say this is a misunderstanding, I believe you. But the brother who is a gangster, the most important thing is to save face. After all, you slept with someone else's wife, so a few words are enough?"

Jiao Tianming hurriedly said: "The brothers punched and kicked me earlier, and that's what I asked for. It's easy to say what kind of compensation I want." "It's good to have this attitude." Wu Xinfu laughed, "Since it's a market economy, we have to use money to solve the problem." Wu Xinfu lit a cigarette by himself: "I'll prepare a little beer tonight, first to impress Mr. Jiao, and second, let's settle this matter properly." Now that things are up to now, how dare Jiao Tianming say no.He quickly packed his things and followed Wu Xinfu out of the hotel.The surprise banquet set by Wu Xinfu was on a cargo ship off Hengqin Island in Zhuhai.After boarding the boat, Wu Xinfu said: "My office is on this boat. The conditions on the boat are poor, so I have to wrong Mr. Jiao."

Jiao Tianming hurriedly shook his head: "Old Wu, you're offended by saying that. By the way, what kind of business are you doing after you leave Dazhong Stock? How come you come to work on the ship?" Wu Xinfu said: "Mr. Jiao often goes to Macau casinos. He must have heard of 'Da Ma Boy'. I am a 'Da Ma Boy'. If a boss wants to go to Macau to have fun, I will definitely do a good job in service. If there is a gambling debt If you don’t pay it back, I will be responsible for collecting the debt.” Of course Jiao Tianming knows what "Da Ma Boy" does for a living.At this moment, an ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart.Wu Xinfu pointed to a hut in the cabin: "There was a Shanxi coal boss who owed the casino 30 million yuan. In the end, I locked him in, whipped him down, and paid back the money in two days."

The food was already on the table, Jiao Tianming had no appetite at all.Wu Xinfu took a big mouthful of vegetables on his own, put down his chopsticks, blew his nose loudly, fell to the ground, and wiped it evenly with his feet.Jiao Tianming took the initiative to say: "Old Wu, we are not outsiders, so why don't you make a price?" Wu Xinfu smiled slightly and stretched out five fingers.Jiao Tianming asked, "Fifty thousand?" Wu Xinfu shook his head and said, "500,000!" Jiao Tianming was dumbfounded, and it took him a while to say: "Is this too much?"

"A lot?" Wu Xinfu showed a fierce look in his eyes, and he continued, "Before this matter, we have another matter to settle." Wu Xinfu took out a few papers from his purse and threw them in front of Jiao Tianming. . Jiao Tianming picked it up and took a look, then he was shocked and said, "This is the IOU I wrote to the Macau Water Release Company, why is it here with you?" "You still go to Macau often!" Wu Xinfu said, "Don't you know that gambling debts in Macau can be changed hands? Your gambling debts have now been transferred to me, and I am your creditor. The debt is 1.5 million, plus the compensation to my brother, the total is 2 million."

Jiao Tianming seemed to understand something, and said coldly: "Old Wu, we have no grievances in the past, and we have no grievances in the present, why are you setting me up?" Wu Xinfu laughed loudly: "The black and white letters on the paper are all written by you yourself. How can I cheat? It is only natural to pay the debt. Mr. Jiao wants to renege on his debts, so he can try it. I can arrange for someone to clean up the hut next door. Alright." Wu Xinfu lit a cigarette, and leisurely puffed out the smoke ring: "My brothers are all violent. The coal boss last time, I told him to be lenient over and over again, and finally gave him a comminuted fracture of his left leg. This time You slept with someone else's wife again, so it's hard to say how hard it was."

Jiao Tianming couldn't help recalling the scene of being beaten violently in the afternoon, and couldn't help feeling terrified.He pleaded: "I will definitely pay back the money I owe." Wu Xinfu crossed his legs: "Mr. Jiao, you are very lucky. You can always meet noble people in your life. A friend heard that something happened to you. He came all the way here and promised to pay the two million for you." Jiao Tianming looked bewildered, only to hear Wu Xinfu yell: "Old Zhuang, if you haven't come out yet, the food on the table is getting cold." At this time, a person walked in from the door of the cabin, Jiao Tianming took a closer look, and jumped up from the chair in shock: "Zhuang Zhiqi!" The bandage on Zhuang Zhiqi's head has been removed, and he is wearing a peaked cap to cover the wound.Zhuang Zhiqi laughed: "Mr. Jiao, the little brother's late rescue has surprised you!" No matter how stupid Jiao Tianming was, he understood everything at this moment.He said angrily, "Zhuang, what do you want to do with such a thing today?" Zhuang Zhiqi still had a smile on his face: "Nothing, I just hope Mr. Jiao can do me a favor." Jiao Tianming said angrily, "What's the matter?" Zhuang Zhiqi said: "I want to know the most authentic financial data of Dazhong Stock, especially the mutual guarantee and loan funds between it and Gu Weimin's other companies." "Impossible." Jiao Tianming said categorically, "I am the chief financial officer, and I will never say anything that should not be said. Especially if you did such a dirty thing today, we have nothing to talk about." Zhuang Zhiqi said, "Mr. Jiao, do you really plan to pay back the two million by yourself?" Jiao Tianming stood up: "If you pay it yourself, you will pay it yourself. One person does the work and the other person is responsible. I will never repay the debt." As soon as Jiao Tianming finished speaking, he felt a gleaming white thing flying towards him.He couldn't dodge in time, and was hit hard, and blood was bleeding from his forehead immediately.When he came back to his senses and took a closer look, it turned out that Wu Xinfu had picked up the plate on the table and smashed it viciously. "Fuck your mother, you are a shameless thing." Wu Xinfu scolded angrily, "You don't want to live if you dare to talk to Lao Zhuang like that." Jiao Tianming is also a bloody man, especially when he thinks that he has been plotted against by others, he is filled with resentment and resentment.He ignored the wound on his forehead, and rushed towards Wu Xinfu like crazy: "I will fight with you!" Wu Xinfu had practiced kung fu after all, even though Jiao Tianming punched him a few times, he finally subdued him to the ground.When the brothers outside the cabin heard the movement, they rushed in one after another. Seeing Jiao Tianming lying on the ground, they wanted to strike again. It was Wu Xinfu who stopped everyone: "Your surname is Jiao, look at your ugly face this afternoon, I didn't expect you to have two slaps, you are a man! You all stop! I have respected bloody men all my life." Wu Xinfu wiped the blood on his face, and ordered the people below: "Bring the things up!" After a while, someone took out a laptop from the back cabin.Wu Xinfu turned on the computer and pointed to the screen: "The surname is Jiao, you can see for yourself." Jiao Tianming struggled to raise his head, and saw on the computer screen, a man and a woman were looking upside down, and one of them was himself. "The posture is quite trendy." Wu Xinfu taunted, "You hooked up with Ah Liang's wife, but you were actually photographed before you were caught in bed." Jiao Tianming was filled with regret.This woman claimed to be Xiaoxia, and she met at a dinner in Shenzhen.After that, Xiaoxia kept sending text messages to ask Jiao Tianming, and even threw herself into her arms.Now it seems that this is a trap set up by others, waiting for him to jump into it. Wu Xinfu yelled at Jiao Tianming: "You said you have to pay back the money, can you get the two million? Oh, yes, Mr. Jiao is the financial director of a listed company. If you give you some time to prepare, maybe you can really make up the money." A sum of money. But if this video is put online, can you still be a director? At that time, how will you pay back the money?" Zhuang Zhiqi, who had been silent all this time, helped Jiao Tianming up, and said pleasantly, "Mr. Jiao is not a government official, and messing with men and women is not a big deal. But you are an executive of a listed company after all, and you are considered a public figure. It’s not going to end well. You, Lao Wu, and I are all people who have worked under Gu Weimin. We all know that Gu Weimin is a mean and ungrateful person. When the time comes, he will lose his car and save his handsome man. No hesitation." Jiao Tianming slumped on the chair, and after a long silence, he said, "Give me a cigarette." Taking the cigarette offered by Zhuang Zhiqi, he took a few puffs, and then downed a glass of white wine on the dinner table. Zhuang Zhiqi saw that his attitude had softened, so he waved Wu Xinfu to take him out: "I just asked you for some information. And this matter, only you and I know." Jiao Tianming shook his head and sighed: "The situation of Dazhong shares is actually similar to the situation audited by the audit team." "Since you say so, I will believe you." Zhuang Zhiqi took out a thick audit document, "But I still want to ask you for some data in it..." Two hours later, Jiao Tianming limped off the ship.Looking at Jiao Tianming's back, Zhuang Zhiqi who was standing at the bow felt a little guilty.Zhuang Zhiqi especially remembers Jiao Tianming's last words before parting: "My surname is Zhuang, thanks to you being a scholar. What you have done is worse than a beast." These words, like a poisonous thorn, pierced into Zhuang Zhiqi's heart pit of heart. The bright moon on the sea coexists with the tide.Zhuang Zhiqi didn't want to appreciate the beautiful scenery under the night sky in southern China.In Du Linxiang's office last night, he expressed that he did not want to come to Zhuhai.Zhuang Zhiqi really didn't want to do this kind of dirty work!It is far more suitable for Gao Mingyong to play than himself.Seeing Jiao Tianming's miserable state, Zhuang Zhiqi felt even more sympathetic and even guilty.He asked himself over and over again, in order to repay Du Linxiang for his kindness, has he really lost his bottom line? Too late to think about these.Zhuang Zhiqi took out his mobile phone, accompanied by the pleasant sea breeze, and dialed Du Linxiang's number. Half an hour later, Du Linxiang, who was far away in Hezhou, put down the phone calmly.He lit a cigarette habitually, and then smoked one after another, three in a row.Zhuang Zhiqi's trip to Zhuhai lived up to his expectations. Faced with the complicated situation, Du Linxiang finally had a bottom line. Du Linxiang took out another cigarette, lit it, took a puff, and then immediately extinguished it.He stood up and dialed Yuan Kai's phone: "Xiao Yuan, how did you go about what you said last time?" Yuan Kai said: "Third brother, I ran around for a day today, asking for connections everywhere. There are some clues, but there is still a long way to go before we can finally get it done." "That's good, that's good!" Du Linxiang breathed a sigh of relief, "You stop this matter first. I will let Gao Mingyong fly to Beijing to find you tomorrow morning. Mingyong will tell you what to do, and when the time comes you Help him from the sidelines." "What do you mean?" Yuan Kai was at a loss. Du Linxiang said: "When you see Gao Mingyong tomorrow, you will understand." Putting down the phone, Du Linxiang immediately called Gao Mingyong to the office.It wasn't until after two o'clock in the night that Gao Mingyong walked out of the office.Gao Mingyong didn't go home, so he took a nap in the company.After six o'clock in the morning, he went to the airport and took an early flight to Beijing.
