Chapter 240: with translation of chapter title
Looking at the Bank Manager kneeling on the ground begging me,
I let out a long sigh,
Then I said: "Since the good days haven't been enough, just keep living. But Bank Manager, let me tell you this: your little life is in my hands,
If I let you die at the third watch, you won't survive to the fifth watch; as long as you don't listen to me, I'll make you disappear right away."
The Bank Manager kowtowed to me again,
"Chairman Zhao, in front of you I am just a dog, an obedient dog, I only beg you to let me live."
I flicked away the cigarette butt,
"Get in the car; there should be no smell inside."
Xiao Long started the car,
I and the Bank Manager got into the car one after another,
The Bank Manager looked at me and whispered: "Chairman Zhao, what should I do? Should I go back to the bank and withdraw that 8 million for you?"
I waved my hand,
Then I said: "Bank Manager, keep that 8 million with you to earn interest; when I need it, you can give it to me."
"Okay, I'll give you the highest interest, calculated as a fixed deposit." The Bank Manager said.
Damn, this Bank Manager really thinks I want to eat interest.
I then said: "Bank Manager, I have a task for you: contact Niu Ju. Have him come to Huaihai alone; I want to meet him face to face."
"Ah, you want to see Niu Ju. You're not going to kill him, are you?" the Bank Manager asked anxiously.
"You worry too much, Bank Manager." I gave him a cold stare.
The Bank Manager immediately said: "Okay, Chairman Zhao, I'll contact Niu Ju right away and have him come over."
The Bank Manager tremblingly pulled out his phone,
Looking at the Bank Manager's appearance,
A call made like this would only make Niu Ju suspicious. He wouldn't come to Huaihai. This guy is slippery.
I snatched the phone from the Bank Manager's hand,
Then I said: "Calm your emotions. If you call him like that, he'll suspect you."
After hearing my words, the Bank Manager began to take a long breath,
Muttering: "I'm not afraid, I'm not afraid."
I said to Xiao Long: "Let's go back to Huaihai City."
Just then the Bank Manager's phone rang,
The Bank Manager's subordinate had been calling him on the phone, asking about his safety.
I gave the phone to the Bank Manager,
Then I said: "Tell your subordinate you're safe, so they don't worry, and more importantly, don't call the police; otherwise I'll kill you right away."
The Bank Manager said: "Okay, Chairman Zhao. I'll call back."
The Bank Manager pressed the answer key,
From the phone came the urgent voice of his subordinate,
"Bank Manager, where are you, how are you, how did you let someone lift you into the car? We've called the police."
Upon hearing his subordinate's voice, the Bank Manager immediately perked up,
He shouted into the phone: "What police report? I'm fine, just following the big boss to his place to check the real situation. I'm okay, don't call, I'm safe, alright, withdraw the police quickly. Damn, you guys are really troublesome."
The subordinate hastily said: "As long as you're safe, Bank Manager, we're withdrawing the police now."
The Bank Manager hung up the phone, then with a full face of a forced smile said: "Chairman Zhao, let's go to the Yin Du Hotel in Huaihai. I have a long-term private room there. Niu Ju also stays there when he comes to Huaihai."
I looked at the Bank Manager,
"Alright, Xiao Long, let's go to the Yin Du Hotel."
Xiao Long said: "Okay, Boss."
We soon arrived at the Yin Du Hotel,
Entered the Bank Manager's private room. It was a presidential suite.
The Bank Manager had mostly recovered from his earlier embarrassed state.
I looked at the Bank Manager and said: "Bank Manager, your emotions have mostly recovered; you can make a call now."
The Bank Manager looked at me and said: "Chairman Zhao, I truly admire you. This Yin Du Hotel is my turf; you really dare to come, aren't you afraid I'll have people seize you?"
I suddenly burst out laughing: "Bank Manager, perhaps you don't understand me? I'm someone who loves adventure; since I dared to come, I'm not afraid of you.
I've said your little life is in my hands; if I want your life, I can take it anytime."
Upon hearing that, the Bank Manager broke into a sweat again,
"Chairman Zhao, I am utterly convinced. Someone who could found the Da Heng Group is certainly no ordinary person. Chairman Zhao, I've already said it: listening to you means absolutely obeying you.
Chairman Zhao…."
"Alright, stop fucking dawdling. Having you contact Niu Ju and you're dragging your feet like this is really fucking annoying. Bank Manager, do you or don't you have other ideas?" I said, then pretended to pull something from my pocket.
"Chairman Zhao, truly none, I truly have none. Don't scare me; I'll call Niu Ju right now." The Bank Manager said, then pulled out his phone again.
He began dialing Niu Ju's number,
Niu Ju's phone was quickly connected,
The Bank Manager deliberately pressed the speakerphone button,
Niu Ju said over the phone: "Old Gu, what's up with the call?"
"Niu Ju, it's been a while since I've seen you; I want you to come to Huaihai for a trip. Let me tell you, the Yin Du Hotel has a new batch of young models; their pole dancing is really nice to watch—I'm inviting you to take a look." The Bank Manager said over the phone.
"Really, Old Gu, don't lie to me. Damn, these days have pissed me off; I've run into a thorny issue and was looking for a place to unwind. Old Gu, let me tell you, I'm in trouble." Niu Ju said.
Niu Ju, any trouble— in your eyes nothing is a big deal. Tell me, what's up? As long as I can help you. Bank Manager said concerned over the phone.
This matter is not convenient to discuss over the phone,
Let's meet and talk instead. Niu Ju said.
Then what time will you arrive in Huaihai? I'll prepare a banquet. Bank Manager said.
It's now past four in the afternoon; I'll be there in over two hours. I'll arrive at the Yindu Hotel promptly at six tonight. Niu Ju said.
All right, Niu Ju, then we'll meet at the Yindu and not part until we're done. I'll have those models ready; tonight they must serve our Niu Ju well. Bank Manager said.
Damn it, tonight we definitely have to go crazy and have fun. Niu Ju laughed loudly.
Bank Manager and Niu Ju hung up the phone, then Bank Manager looked at me and said: "Chairman Zhao, rest assured, this time Niu Ju will definitely come alone; he won't even bring a driver."
I nodded.
Then I said to Bank Manager: "Bank Manager, have the hotel send up some food and drinks; we're all hungry, we've been busy all day and haven't eaten yet. When Niu Ju arrives, we'll have the energy to talk."
Bank Manager said: "Chairman Zhao, may I ask, do you still need to find someone to help? I have a few subordinates who are sanda experts; just a word and they'll come running."
I waved my hand.
Then I looked at Bank Manager and said: "Bank Manager, having your subordinates come is specifically for us, right?"
Bank Manager then shook his head and said: "Chairman Zhao, really not; I'm genuinely trying to help you."
"Thanks, no need, just ask the hotel for food." I said to Bank Manager.
Bank Manager had no choice but to pull out his phone again to contact the front desk, asking them to send food and drinks to the room.
Soon, the hotel staff pushed the food and drinks up.
I had Bank Manager place the dishes in the restaurant.
Then I took out a bottle of fine wine.
"Bank Manager, let's have a drink together."
