"Erhai, I really know I was wrong, don't leave, I'll change."
Zhang Xiaoyun became abject, still clutching Wang Erhai tightly, refusing to let Wang Erhai leave.
"You promised me before, that during Spring Festival you'd take me back to your Hometown, to see your parents, how can you go back on your word?"
Zhang Xiaoyun wept with tears streaming down her face, she cast aside all dignity, begging abjectly.
"Let go!"
Wang Erhai had already made up his mind.
Seeing Zhang Xiaoyun wouldn't let go, he personally pried her hands off his body with force, broke free of Zhang Xiaoyun's restraint, then turned around dragging his luggage case and walked away.
But he hadn't taken a few steps when Zhang Xiaoyun hurriedly chased up again, grabbing his luggage case with one hand:
"Don't go, I beg you, I'll listen to you in everything from now on! I won't badmouth your eldest brother anymore, I won't go make trouble at the Company anymore!"
Zhang Xiaoyun was still making a final attempt to keep him.
Wang Erhai tugged hard at the luggage case.
Zhang Xiaoyun clung to it for dear life.
Wang Erhai was so angry he laughed:
"You like my luggage case that much? Then you can have it!"
Wang Erhai threw the luggage case away, turned around empty-handed and left.
Zhang Xiaoyun was dumbfounded.
She hurriedly chased after him.
Chased all the way Downstairs.
Wang Erhai got into the car he'd driven over, started the vehicle and pulled away.
Zhang Xiaoyun ran over in a sorry state, slapping the driver's side door.
"Erhai, don't go, I really know I was wrong!"
Wang Erhai didn't even glance at her, stomped the Accelerator, and roared off.
Colder and more ruthless than the cold wind on the Street.
Wang Erhai returned to Wang Dashan's Residence, and told Wang Dashan about him and Zhang Xiaoyun breaking up.
He thought Wang Dashan would be happy to hear it.
Unexpectedly Wang Dashan's reaction was quite flat.
"Things have come to this, what use is it that you and her broke up?"
Wang Dashan also said:
"Now that you've split with Zhang Xiaoyun, if you can't find a partner later, don't blame it on me."
Wang Dashan knew what Wang Erhai's conditions were.
This younger brother had no looks to speak of, no height to speak of, and now Shanhai Real Estate was in this wretched state; in terms of finding a mate, he actually had very little Advantage.
Being able to pursue a beautiful girlfriend like Zhang Xiaoyun was purely because at that time it happened to be Shanhai Real Estate's peak period, Shanhai Real Estate had given him quite a Halo.
"Big Brother, reassure yourself, even if I end up alone for life, I won't blame you!" Wang Erhai's attitude was extremely firm, and he also said: "Back when she was saying bad things about you in my ear, I should have broken up with her then, I was too Soft-hearted, that's what led to her Pushing Her Luck, finally making trouble all the way to the Company!"
Wang Dashan didn't say anything more.
Instead he asked:
"You said before you'd go borrow money to save Shanhai Real Estate, you still tell me about it — where to borrow? How to borrow? You mustn't go borrow from those illegal usurious loans."
Wang Dashan couldn't help worrying about Wang Erhai.
Just afraid this younger brother would do something stupid in order to Compensate for his mistake.
Wang Erhai feigned a Light-hearted tone:
"You don't need to worry about this, reassure yourself, I have my own sense of proportion."
He actually planned to borrow from online lending, online lending is easy to get hold of, only that way could he solve Shanhai Real Estate's burning urgency.
He felt that online lending from relatively legitimate Platforms probably shouldn't count as usurious loans.
Seeing him like this, Wang Dashan was even more uneasy:
"Don't you go borrow, I'll go find Xu Mingxin first, make him Repay me that two hundred thousand, as long as he's Willing to repay, then we'll still have capital to keep operating."
Wang Erhai gave a bitter smile:
"Xu Mingxin owes a Buttocks-load of debt, how would he have money to repay us?"
Wang Dashan knew in his heart the Opportunity was slim, but still said:
"I'll go ask, if I don't ask how would I know?"
That Afternoon, Wang Dashan contacted Xu Mingxin.
He didn't directly say to have Xu Mingxin repay the money.
He was afraid if he said it directly, Xu Mingxin wouldn't come see him.
He just said to come out and chat casually.
Xu Mingxin Agreed readily.
Because at his most down-and-out, Wang Dashan had still invited him to the Rental House for hotpot, so he didn't have much guard against Wang Dashan.
At Eight o'clock in the Evening, Wang Dashan met Xu Mingxin at a Beef hotpot restaurant.
To Wang Dashan's surprise, Xu Mingxin had actually shaken off his previous dejection, wearing a suit and looking radiant.
"Brother Xu, have you made a comeback?"
Upon seeing Xu Mingxin, Wang Dashan asked curiously.
Xu Mingxin was grinning, and said humbly:
"A comeback is still far off, but I'm no longer in such a sorry state as before."
Wang Dashan asked again:
"Found a way to make money?"
Xu Mingxin didn't dodge the question, and said frankly:
"That's right, I found one, and it's a way to make big money!"
"What way?"
"Internet finance, the one I told you about before!" Xu Mingxin's face was full of smiles, and he also said:
"You don't know, I've only been in the business for two months, and I've already earned a hundred thousand yuan!"
Wang Dashan was extremely surprised:
"It makes money that easily?"
Xu Mingxin looked very pleased with himself:
"Of course! Internet finance is the new trend; in this line, even pigs can fly, let alone me who's much smarter than a pig!"
Xu Mingxin wanted to pull Wang Dashan into the business; he felt Wang Dashan was a man who valued righteousness, quite reliable, and recruiting him as a right-hand man would absolutely be like adding wings to a tiger.
So he extended an olive branch:
"Brother, want to work with me?"
But Wang Dashan's face was full of embarrassment, and he smiled politely to decline:
"Better not, I still have to run Shanhai Real Estate, can't get away."
Actually the main reason was that in his heart he felt doing internet finance wasn't much different from the underworld lending usury; those are all conscience-lacking bad deeds, and in the future your son would be born without an anus.
"By the way, how's your Shanhai Real Estate doing?"
Xu Mingxin asked with concern.
Wang Dashan then told the truth:
"Not too good, struggling to keep it going, some difficulties have come up with funds... Brother Xu, since you can make money so well now, look, that two hundred thousand of mine, can you pay back some first?"
Wang Dashan was very polite.
Xu Mingxin sighed:
"Brother, it's not that I don't want to pay you back first, but I really can't help it; my money barely hits the account before the bank sweeps it away in under three seconds, I have to pay off the bank first before I can pay you."
"Is that so..." Wang Dashan didn't know what to say for a moment, then said tactfully: "You don't have any cash left?"
But Xu Mingxin said: "Internet business, how would it use cash for transactions, it's all online transactions, no cash to be seen! The bank side only leaves me two thousand yuan a month for living expenses, the rest is all swept away, it's not that I don't want to pay you back, I really have no way! But don't worry, at this rate I'll pay off the bank soon, estimate by this winter I'll be able to pay you back!"
It's just past the New Year, still quite a ways from winter; by winter, the daylilies will be cold, and Shanhai Real Estate will be finished too.
"Alright, alright..."
Wang Dashan let out a long sigh, his face involuntarily showing dejection.
Seeing this, Xu Mingxin's eyes rolled, and he extended an olive branch again:
"Brother, why don't you come work with me; doing real estate brokerage really doesn't make money like internet finance, as long as you follow me I guarantee you'll net thirty to forty thousand a month no problem, besides, your company's been blacklisted by the industry, persisting doesn't have much meaning."
Wang Dashan said politely:
"Brother Xu, I appreciate the thought, but I still want to persist a bit longer, after all Shanhai Real Estate means something extraordinary to me."
Seeing Wang Dashan so insistent, Xu Mingxin didn't persuade further.
Just said:
"Then fine, suit yourself; if you really can't make it in real estate later, just come find me!"
Even patted his chest to guarantee:
"As long as I, Xu Mingxin, have a mouthful of meat to eat, you'll absolutely get your share of the soup!"
