"Ten dollars!"

"Huh, Liu Guangtian, don't go too far. I can only give you ten dollars now, do you like it or not?" Yan Jiecheng tried to be tough.

When Liu Guangtian heard this, his eyes widened: "Ten yuan? Where are you sending to the beggar? We agreed before that it was a hundred yuan, not even a cent less."

Yan Jiecheng sneered: "Don't look at what's going on now. I don't have that much money. If you're smart, just take the ten dollars and leave. Otherwise, you won't get a penny."

Liu Guangtian was also angry: "Yan Jiecheng, do you think I am a three-year-old child? I almost got discovered for this information and took such a big risk. You want to cheat? No way!"

The two of them were in a stalemate at the street corner, refusing to give in to each other, and the atmosphere was so tense that it seemed like it was on the verge of breaking out.

Liu Guangtian gritted his teeth, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes, and finally chose to give in. He knew very well that to him, this information was indeed as Yan Jiecheng said. It had no value other than selling it to Yan Jiecheng and kept it in his hands.

It's just a pile of waste paper, and it may bring you trouble.

He reluctantly took the ten yuan from Yan Jiecheng's hand, counted them, and then glared at Yan Jiecheng with a warning in his tone: "Yan Jiecheng, I will accept the ten yuan this time, and you will be counted.

Cruel. But don’t just fool around with it. You have to give me the remaining ninety yuan quickly, or I won’t be done with you.”

Yan Jiecheng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a proud smile: "I know, I know, when I finish processing this information, I will naturally give you the money. Don't worry, I, Yan Jiecheng, keep my word." He said this in his heart.

But he was thinking about how to get rid of Liu Guangtian and throw away the remaining money.

Liu Guangtian snorted and handed the information to Yan Jiecheng: "You'd better be like this and don't play tricks." After saying that, he turned and left.

…

Liu Guangtian returned home with a tired and a little irritable body. As soon as he entered the door, Zhang Xiuhua greeted him eagerly. Her eyes shone with anticipation. She grabbed Liu Guangtian's arm and asked impatiently:

"How's it going? Did you steal the information? Did you get the money?"

Liu Guangtian frowned, shook Zhang Xiuhua's hand away, and said angrily: "I got it, but I only got ten yuan. That Yan Jiecheng was too cunning and was only willing to give so much first."

When Zhang Xiuhua heard this, her eyes widened and her face was full of disbelief: "What? It's only ten yuan? Didn't you agree on a hundred yuan? This is not possible, we can't just let it go."

Liu Guangtian sat down on the chair and rubbed his temples: "What can I do? Now the information is in his hands. If I don't accept the ten yuan first, I won't even have the ten yuan. But I have warned him,

Ask him to give me the remaining ninety yuan immediately."

Zhang Xiuhua paced back and forth in the room, frowning: "You just believe him so much? People like him might just want to default on the debt. No, we have to find a way to get all the money back. That's what we deserve in the first place.

of."

Liu Guangtian sighed helplessly: "I know, I will find a way. Stop nagging here, it's annoying to death."

Zhang Xiuhua looked at Liu Guangtian's tired and irritable look, and knew that it would be useless to complain now, so she could only give up for the time being. She rolled her eyes, thought of an idea, and said to Liu Guangtian: "We have made ten yuan today.

, why not go to the tavern for dinner, it’s been a long time since I’ve improved the food.”

Liu Guangtian frowned even more when he heard this. He looked at Zhang Xiuhua with some dissatisfaction: "Go to the tavern? How expensive is that! You have to save these ten yuan. Who knows when Yan Jiecheng will spend the rest

Give me the money."

Zhang Xiuhua curled her lips: "It's just this time. We have been working so hard recently, and you took such a big risk today."

Liu Guangtian still shook his head resolutely: "No, you can't spend this money indiscriminately. We can just eat at home. When we get the ninety yuan, we will consider going to the tavern."

Zhang Xiuhua felt angry when she heard Liu Guangtian's answer. Yan Jiecheng's usual generous demeanor suddenly appeared in her mind, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that Liu Guangtian was too stingy. So she couldn't help complaining: "Look at you,

He doesn’t look like a man at all. Look at Yan Jiecheng, how generous he is. How can he be so cowardly as you, who is timid just for ten dollars?”

Liu Guangtian had a headache from Zhang Xiuhua's argument. He knew that if he didn't agree, the fight would be endless, so he had no choice but to nod and agree to take her to the tavern.

Zhang Xiuhua suddenly beamed, as if she had received her most beloved gift. She happily ran into the house, rummaged through the simple wardrobe, and picked out the dress she thought looked best and put it on. Although the dress was somewhat

It's old, but in her eyes, this is the dignity you should have when eating in a tavern.

The two of them walked out of the house and as soon as they came to the yard, they met Uncle Chen who was taking a walk. When Uncle Chen saw them, he smiled and said hello: "Where are you two going?"

Zhang Xiuhua's face was full of pride and she couldn't wait to show off: "Uncle Chen, we are going to the tavern for dinner. We must have a good meal today." Her tone was full of pride.

Uncle Chen frowned slightly, with a puzzled look in his eyes. He knew that Liu Guangtian's monthly salary was only a small amount, and he usually lived a tight life. How could he suddenly have money to spend money in a tavern? This was not like their usual style.

As the man in charge of the compound, Uncle Chen felt that he had the responsibility to find out about this matter. He stopped, his eyes became serious, and he stared at Zhang Xiuhua and asked: "Where did you get the money? Don't do anything wrong.

A legitimate thing, right?"

When Zhang Xiuhua was asked by Uncle Chen, the smile on her face suddenly froze. She looked at Liu Guangtian nervously, not knowing how to answer. Liu Guangtian's heart skipped a beat. He didn't expect Uncle Chen to ask such a question, and he didn't know what to say for a moment.

He was a little at a loss. But he quickly reacted and stammered: "Chen...Uncle Chen, we just saved some money recently and wanted to improve the food. We haven't...did anything bad."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Uncle Chen is not that easy to fool. He examined Liu Guangtian's expression and felt that the matter was not that simple: "Really? Don't lie, if I find out there is something wrong

, but don’t blame me for being rude.”

Liu Guangtian felt a chill on his back. He tried to calm himself down and said, "Uncle, really, we really didn't lie."

Zhang Xiuhua's mind turned, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she put a smile on her face again and said: "Uncle Chen, it's like this. Guangtian has a friend who made a small fortune recently and insists on inviting us to dinner. We have been avoiding it for a long time.

I really couldn’t shirk it, so I went to the tavern.”

When Liu Guangtian heard Zhang Xiuhua's answer, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly echoed: "Yes, uncle, we didn't want to go originally, but my friend is too enthusiastic, so it would be bad not to go." He tried to make his expression look more natural.

, but I was still a little nervous, for fear that Uncle Chen would see some flaws.

After listening to their explanations, the suspicion on Uncle Chen's face did not completely dissipate. He looked at Liu Guangtian, then at Zhang Xiuhua, and said, "So that's it, but you should also be careful not to make any indiscretions."

My friend Si, society is complicated now."

Liu Guangtian and Zhang Xiuhua nodded repeatedly and said, "I know, sir, we know what we know." After saying that, the two of them hurriedly left the yard and walked towards the tavern. Along the way, Liu Guangtian complained in a low voice to Zhang Xiuhua: "How could you be so casual?

Make up a reason, if the uncle finds out later, we will be in trouble."

Zhang Xiuhua said nonchalantly: "What can we do? Should we tell him about stealing information? Let's deal with it first and then talk about it." Liu Guangtian sighed helplessly, hoping that this matter would not be exposed.

While Liu Guangtian and Zhang Xiuhua were enjoying a rare dinner at the tavern, Yan Jiecheng also hurriedly finished his dinner at home and left the courtyard.

Yan Jiecheng walked quickly and came to the door of a large courtyard. The courtyard looked quite impressive. The security officer at the door stood tall and straight at his post with a serious look on his face.

Yan Jiecheng composed himself, tried his best to put on a flattering smile on his face, and ran quickly to the security officer. He bowed slightly and said in an extremely polite tone: "Hello, comrade!" Security Officer

The clerk just looked at him coldly and did not respond. His eyes were full of scrutiny.

Yan Jiecheng was a little embarrassed, but he still forced himself to continue: "Comrade, I have one thing to ask you. I'm here to see Zhang Li. Is she in the courtyard? I have something very, very important to tell her. It's really important."

Urgent, can you help us call her out?" As he said that, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and tried to hand it to the security officer.

The security officer frowned, gently pushed Yan Jiecheng's hand passing the cigarette away, and said stiffly: "Smoking is not allowed here. What is your relationship with Zhang Li? Why are you looking for her so late?"

Yan Jiecheng quickly put the cigarette back and explained with a smile: "Comrade, I'm her friend. We made an appointment. It's really urgent. Please shout for me. I can't bear it if it delays the matter."

." As he spoke, he shook the bag containing the information in his hand, as if he wanted to use this to prove that what he said was true.

The security officer looked at Yan Jiecheng, then looked at the bag in his hand, hesitated, and said, "Then you wait here, I'll go take a look." After that, he turned and walked into the compound.

Yan Jiecheng stood there, looking at the back of the security officer, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

After a while, Zhang Li walked out with a bit of disheveled hair and an impatient look on her face.

"Yan Jiecheng, what are you doing? It's so late, I'm ready to go to bed." Zhang Li complained, with obvious dissatisfaction in her tone.

Yan Jiecheng didn't care at all about her complaints. His face was flushed with excitement and his eyes were shining. He couldn't wait to wave the information in his hand in front of Zhang Li: "Look, I got the information on new energy vehicles!

"

Zhang Li's originally lazy eyes suddenly became sharp, and her whole person became much more energetic. She looked around cautiously, and whispered: "Keep your voice down, it will be terrible if someone discovers this kind of thing."

After that, she took Yan Jiecheng's arm and walked quickly to the dim alley next to the compound.

The alley was extremely quiet, with the only sound of their hurried footsteps. Zhang Li looked around nervously, and after making sure there was no one there, she said to Yan Jiecheng: "Quick, let me see the information."

Zhang Li took the information bag, opened it eagerly, and browsed through it quickly in the dim light. After just two glances, her face darkened like a dark cloud covering the sun, and the original expectation in her eyes was instantly replaced by anger and disappointment.

.

Yan Jiecheng watched clearly from the side, and an ominous premonition surged in his heart. Most of the excitement in his heart suddenly dissipated. He stepped forward and asked with confusion on his face: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong with this information?"

Zhang Li glared at Yan Jiecheng fiercely and said in a cold tone: "Look at the good things you have done! Only the top one of these materials has the words "new energy vehicles" written on it. It is all old information, and there is nothing we want.

The core content you want. Have you been deceived? Or did you simply not check it carefully?"

When Yan Jiecheng heard this, his eyes widened immediately. He grabbed the information and started flipping through it quickly. As pages of scrap information flashed before his eyes, his face became more and more ugly. He couldn't believe himself.

eyes, and kept mumbling: "It's impossible, how is this possible? That guy Liu Guangtian clearly said that the information is fine..."

Big beads of sweat broke out on his forehead, and his mind was in chaos.

Zhang Li was so angry that her whole body was shaking, her eyes were burning with anger. She pointed at Yan Jiecheng's nose and angrily shouted: "Yan Jiecheng, you are such a waste! You can't handle such a small thing. I'm really blind to believe that you can do this."

Things are done. I used to pat my chest and say good things for you in front of dad, saying that you were capable and worthy of being entrusted, just to let you join the factory as a leader. How about you get me this rubbish? "

Yan Jiecheng's face was full of shame, and beads of sweat kept rolling down his forehead. He lowered his head and did not dare to look directly into Zhang Li's eyes. When Zhang Li mentioned that he should be the leader, he felt even more panicked.

I know that this mistake may have cost me an excellent opportunity.

"Zhang Li, I'm sorry, it's my fault, I was too careless." Yan Jiecheng said with a trembling voice, "Give me another chance, I will definitely get the real information, and I will never let you down again. I

I swear, I will take care of all the details this time, and no matter what method I use, I will get the information on new energy vehicles."

Although Zhang Li is angry and hard to calm down, she also knows that Yan Jiecheng is still inseparable from this matter. The plan has been launched, and many links need to be solved by Yan Jiecheng. Not only is it too late to replace people now, but it may also cause more problems.

The trouble. She took a deep breath and tried to suppress her anger, but there was still deep dissatisfaction in her eyes.

"Yan Jiecheng, I will let you go for the time being, not because I believe you, but because the current situation requires your continued participation." Zhang Li said coldly, her eyes like a sharp knife, piercing straight through

Yan Jiecheng said, "You'd better give me a ten

Don't make any more mistakes with your spirit. If you can't get the real information, don't come to see me again, and don't expect me to speak for you in front of my father. All the agreements between us will be reduced to

Pao Ying, you should weigh it carefully yourself."

Yan Jiecheng was greatly liberated.
