Chapter 72 Benefits and Risks Wen Xu first went to the train station to see Guo Xingyun and Ye Mei off, then turned around and went to the hospital to see Aunt Guan.
Aunt Guan recovered well after the operation. Her face was obviously much rosier than the previous few days, and she was in better spirits. When she saw Wen Xu coming, she hurriedly asked Guan Mengyu to get the fruit.
Wen Xu sat beside the hospital bed and asked with concern: "Auntie, are you feeling better?"
"Much better! This time, thanks to your and Dr. Qin's help." Aunt Guan said gratefully.
"Auntie, please don't say that. It's not a loss or a loss. Mengyu and I are brothers, and these are all things I should do." Wen Xu smiled and shook his head.
Aunt Guan looked at Wen Xu with tears streaming down her face and kept sighing: "Mengyu is so lucky to have a brother like you in this life!"
Wen Xu was afraid of disturbing Aunt Guan's rest, so he sat in the ward for twenty minutes before preparing to leave. Aunt Guan asked Guan Mengyu to send Wen Xu out.
After walking out of the ward, Guan Mengyu asked Wen Xu, "Brother Wen, have you wanted your money for a long time?"
Wen Xu shook his head and said to Guan Mengyu: "Let's put the tens of thousands of dollars with you for the time being! I'm a student, and it's not good to have too much money on me and arouse suspicion."
Guan Mengyu thought for a while, nodded and said: "Brother Wen, if you need this money for a long time, just call me and I will give it to you right away."
"Okay!" Wen Xu patted Guan Mengyu on the shoulder and smiled lightly, "Don't panic about the money, let's talk about your business. Aunt Guan's illness has recovered, what are your plans?"
Guan Mengyu took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to Wen Xu, then took out another one for himself, took a deep breath, and then exhaled the smoke and said slowly: "Brother Wen, I want to find a cigarette."
Work and make money to support your family.”
"Then what job do you think is suitable for you?" Wen Xu also blew out a smoke ring and asked Guan Mengyu through the smoke.
Guan Mengyu replied: "Anything that can put you to work will be fine."
Wen Xu knew that Guan Mengyu had just come out of the army and needed to adapt to everything again, so Wen Xu was not surprised when he heard Guan Mengyu's answer.
Wen Xu thought for a while and asked Guan Mengyu: "Are you willing to be a security guard? The salary of a security guard is not very high, only two thousand at most, but the threshold is low and you can get started quickly."
"Okay!" Guan Mengyu hesitated for a moment, then agreed to Wen Xu's suggestion.
"I have a friend who runs a company, so I'm going to ask you if she accepts security guards," Wen Xu said.
"Sorry, Brother Wen." Guan Mengyu said.
Wen Xu walked out of the hospital and immediately called Chu Tingyu and asked her if she needed security guards there.
When Chu Tingyu received the call, she did not reply to Wen Xu immediately, but asked Wen Xu to come to the company.
Wen Xu had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he agreed to Chu Tingyu's request and rushed to the building where Tianfu Real Estate was located.
Tianfu Real Estate still works in the building where Wen Xu first came. When Wen Xu saw that the front desk staff had no intention of stopping him, he walked directly into Chu Tingyu's office.
Chu Tingyu seemed to be waiting for Wen Xu in the office. When Wen Xu came in, Chu Tingyu was leaning on the chair and spinning her pen leisurely.
"Sit down!" Chu Tingyu put the pen in her hand and asked Wen Xu to sit down.
Wen Xu said thank you and sat relaxed on the leather sofa opposite Chu Tingyu. Just as he was about to ask about Guan Mengyu, Chu Tingyu spoke first.
"The Chinese New Year is coming soon, are you going on winter vacation too?" Chu Tingyu asked Wen Xu.
Wen Xu nodded and said: "We moved campuses today. We have the afternoon off and many students have already gone home."
"Then are you ready to go home for the New Year?" Chu Tingyu continued to ask.
Wen Xu said: "I plan to leave in two days. Anyway, my home is in this province, and it only takes a few hours to take a bus."
Chu Tingyu nodded, and then said: "Xiaoya has gone home to celebrate the New Year, and I am also planning to go home in two days. I will come back when the New Year is over on the fifth day of the lunar month. By then, I will not be here
Instead, we moved directly to the headquarters building in Guanghua District. By the way, your new campus seems to be also in Guanghua District, right?"
"Yeah!" Wen Xu nodded in response.
"Then it will be convenient for you to tutor Xiaoya in the future. Xiaoya's school is also in Guanghua District." Chu Tingyu said with a smile.
Wen Xu smiled and nodded, and turned the topic to Guan Mengyu: "Sister Yu, is your company short of security personnel? I have a good brother named Guan Mengyu, and I want to find a job like this
work.”
Chu Tingyu tapped her slender jade fingers gently on the table and asked Wen Xu, "What did you, this brother, do before?"
"He just came back from serving in the army. He has good skills and is definitely qualified for the job of security. However, he is a bit dull and doesn't like to talk much." Wen Xu said to Chu Tingyu.
After listening to Wen Xu's introduction, Chu Tingyu nodded and said: "Okay! If you ask him to come to the company to work during the Chinese New Year, I will make arrangements for him. However, security work does not bring good benefits. The basic salary for a month is only
Two thousand yuan, and you must have a hard-working spirit."
Wen Xu smiled and shook his head and said, "No problem! My brother was a soldier, so hard work will not be a problem."
"That's good!" Chu Tingyu smiled, with a sly smile flashing in her eyes, and said, "I helped your friend just now, should you do me a favor now?"
Seeing the cunning smile in Chu Tingyu's eyes, Wen Xu suddenly felt like he had been fooled and tried to ask: "Are you going to ask me to accompany you to that boring party again?"
"You're half right!" Chu Tingyu raised her slender index finger and said to Wen Xu with a smile, "I asked you to accompany me to a party, but it will definitely be more interesting than the last party. I guess you will.
like."
In this way, Wen Xu followed Chu Tingyu to a club with great curiosity in his heart.
"Miss Chu, please!" After reading Chu Tingyu's invitation, the waiter outside made a respectful gesture of invitation and let Chu Tingyu and Wen Xu in.
After passing through a long and narrow corridor, Wen Xu finally saw the magnificent hall.
There are various gaming tables in the splendid hall, and there is a dealer in charge at each table, while the bunny girl wearing a bikini shuttles between the gaming tables with a smile, enthusiastically serving
Provide services to passing guests.
"This is a casino?" Wen Xu took a deep breath of air. He never expected that there would be such a large-scale casino in Jiangzhou City. This was completely openly gambling.
Chu Tingyu's expression seemed much calmer. She pointed at the crowd and asked, "What difference do you find among the guests here?"
"Apart from the fact that there are more women, I don't notice any difference." Wen Xu said to Chu Tingyu.
Chu Tingyu shook her head and explained to Wen Xu: "The guests here are all people with status, not just anyone can come in and play. I'm afraid the poorest person here has assets of more than 50 million."
After hearing this, Wen Xu couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "But I only have a few hundred yuan now."
Chu Tingyu rolled her eyes at Wen Xu, and then said: "The identity of the guests determines that the guests here will never be ordinary gamblers."
"They just played too much. I don't see any difference between them and other gamblers." Wen Xu said lightly, his face not hiding his contempt for these people who are just fishing for fame.
"Many of them don't come here to win money. This is the biggest difference between them and ordinary gamblers." Chu Tingyu said nonchalantly and casually took the red wine brought by the waiter.
"They are not here to win money, so why are they here to lose money?" Wen Xu asked angrily.
"This is the purpose of some people." Chu Tingyu nodded, "Each guest comes here for a different purpose. Some people come here to discuss business, some people come here to relax, and
Some people come here just to watch the fun.”
Wen Xu asked: "Then why are you here?"
"I just came here on my father's order to attend a business friend's birthday party on his behalf. It's hard to say, but I believe you understand." Chu Tingyu took a sip of red wine gently.
Holding Wen Xu's arm, he walked into the elevator.
The elevator stopped on the third floor, and Chu Tingyu took Wen Xu's arm and walked towards the room at the end of the corridor.
"Xiaoyu is here!" When an old man in his fifties saw Chu Tingyu coming over, a bright smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Uncle Deng, I wish you a happy birthday! My father planned to come to wish you a birthday in person, but something happened at home, so he had to ask me to come and wish you a birthday on his behalf." Chu Tingyu said to Deng Yinan politely.
"Uncle Deng is as happy as you are coming!" Deng Yinan laughed loudly.
Chu Tingyu smiled faintly, handed the gift list to the waiter behind Deng Yinan, took Wen Xu's arm and walked in.
"Even though he looks like an amiable old man when he smiles, he is a giant in the financial world. It is said that in the financial crisis that just passed, he made over 100 billion yuan. When many people
When he suffered losses or even went bankrupt, he made enough." Chu Tingyu explained to Wen Xu.
"More than 10 billion? You people's money really comes from the wind." Wen Xu shook his head speechlessly.
"Although capital investment has great returns, it also carries risks. I just made 10 billion today, and maybe I will lose everything tomorrow." Chu Tingyu shook her head and said seriously, "When you
When you see others' brilliance, don't ignore the price others have paid. Most of the time, benefits and risks are always proportional."
"Just like blackjack, your next card can make you 21, or it can blow you up directly. So, there is always a risk in asking for cards." Wen Xu's eyes just drifted over.
While playing twenty-one at the table, I couldn't help but say casually.
Chu Tingyu smiled lightly and said casually: "For gamblers, they would rather blow up than take down the cards."
