cannon fodder stand-in alliance

The three of Cheng Lang waited in the guard room for about half an hour before the factory owner drove over in his black Mercedes.

This is a northern man who looks to be in his 40s.Tall and muscular.The appearance is a bit fierce.He walks vigorously.There was also a middle-aged woman who came with him.He perms his head, wears mink, and looks richer.The factory owner introduced: "This is my lover."

The proprietress looked at the three of Cheng Lang with surprise.Before coming here, she only heard from her husband that someone wanted to rent their factory for 13 yuan, and the rent would last for ten years.The proprietress became angry when she heard that, although the Feng Shui of their factory building is not very good, three people died in the past two years.Sounds ominous.But it's not that the price of cabbage is on sale.Such a large factory area of ​​13 signed a ten-year contract, which is clearly bullying honest people.

The more the proprietress thought about it, the angrier she became, and she followed her aggressively.Originally, I wanted to scold the person who was begging for cheap, but I didn't expect these three people to be so good-looking.

This old pine with two shallots is so clean, it is really rare.

"It's that you want to rent a factory?" The proprietress smiled like a flower, and her tone was warm and refreshing: "Why do you think of renting a factory in this place where birds don't lay eggs? Could it be that you were deceived? right?"

Boss suspected of cheating: "..."

The factory owner patted his wife on the arm: "It's business."

"Ah!" The proprietress came back to her senses and continued: "That's what happened. The Feng Shui of my factory is not very good. You've all heard about ghosts haunting the dead, right?"

Even the well-informed Cheng Lang didn't know how to answer the conversation at this time.

"I don't think the three of you are in small businesses. These two kids haven't graduated from college yet?" The proprietress continued to inquire, "What are you renting this factory for?"

Shen Huaiyu explained: "We opened a milk tea shop. We want to build a milk tea paste processing factory here."

"Oh." The proprietress understood: "It's whole milk tea powder, right?"

Before Shen Huaiyu understood what "whole milk tea powder" meant, the proprietress continued to ask: "Then it's not too far for you to rent a factory here? There is no subway or bus here. It takes one and a half hours to drive into the city." Hour."

Luo Pu explained: "I opened a tea garden up there. I heard that there are abandoned factories here for rent, so I brought people over to have a look."

The Xuanpu tea garden in Luopu has been open for many years, and it is quite famous in the vicinity.The proprietress knew it as soon as she heard it: "So you belong to the same family. Then I won't talk nonsense."

"Since you are also doing business nearby, you should know the price of renting a factory nearby. Is it too much for you to give 13 a year?"

"13 a year is indeed a bit small. Isn't your situation special?" Luo Pu said with a smile, "We want to do business in a smooth and smooth way. The feng shui in your area is really not very good."

"That can't—"

Before the proprietress could finish her sentence, she was interrupted by Cheng Lang: "You think 13 is too little, but the risk we have to bear here is also high. When we open the door to do business, we pay attention to auspiciousness. If I can get two 10,000+ , I might as well rent a factory nearby that hasn’t died or been scrapped. At least we can move in with our bags, and we can work when we walk in.”

Hearing Cheng Lang's words, the boss and the proprietress looked at each other.

Cheng Lang continued: "Generally, haunted houses are for sale, and the price is much cheaper than normal houses. Three people died in your land in the first two years. I say haunted houses are not an exaggeration, right?"

The proprietress frowned.

The factory owner said: "Okay. Let's stop talking nonsense. 13 is 13, just sign the contract."

Of course, Cheng Lang had no objection.So the group drove back to the tea garden. Cheng Lang turned on the computer in Luopu's office and was now drawing up a lease contract.

The factory owner glanced at it roughly, and there was no objection to the other clauses, except for the last liquidated damages: "If any party breaches the contract, will it be compensated at one hundred times the full amount of the contract?"

13 a year, 130 million ten years.One hundred times the full amount of the contract, isn't that 3000 million?

The factory owner was secretly speechless: "Isn't it?"

"It's just prevention." Cheng Lang said with a smile: "I'm also worried that our milk tea brand will become bigger and stronger in the future, and competitors will use the land ownership of the processing plant to deal with us. Small business, I can't afford it."

The factory owner shook his head: "I'm afraid that you will go bankrupt within two years, and you won't be able to pay the next rent."

Before he finished speaking, he felt that this kind of statement was very unlucky, so he immediately said "Bah bah" twice: "I blame my mouth for not being open. Don't take it to heart, little brother. Your milk tea factory will definitely become bigger and stronger, and branch stores will be opened all over the place." The whole country."

Cheng Lang smiled, and didn't mind the factory owner's outspokenness.Wen Sheng said: "Doing business is not an easy task. Especially we two orphans, no father, no mother, no support, and no relatives and friends to help. If we really can't continue, then There is no way. But boss, don’t worry, we will definitely fulfill the contract that should be abided by.”

Cheng Lang sold it out with ease, which really aroused the sympathy of the factory owner and his wife.The proprietress looked at Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu in surprise: "Both of you don't have parents?"

"No." Cheng Lang said: "I have been an orphan since I was a child. He had a car accident at home during this summer vacation..."

When Cheng Lang finished talking about the life experiences of the two, the eyes of the boss and the boss's wife were red.As soon as the proprietress grabbed Cheng Lang's hand, her nose burst into tears: "Why do you say these two children are so miserable. Thieves really don't give good people a life. What two wonderful children. It's really not easy."

"Why don't you guys stop renting our factory. It's really unlucky for three people to die in less than three years. Auntie can't cheat you." The proprietress cried and said, "We won't sign this contract. Don't worry, we I will help you build a nearby factory later. I will definitely help you find a cheap one that hasn’t died yet.”

Cheng Lang: "..."

"It's not necessary." Cheng Lang didn't expect that he used too much force and almost lost the bargain he got, and immediately said: "I used fortune-telling when I was a child. The fortune-teller said that I am a lone star of the evil spirit, and even ghosts are afraid of me." .It’s because I’m strong enough that I dare to rent your factory. Let me tell you the truth! I’m not afraid of those ghosts, I can hold them back.”

"But—" The proprietress was still a little hesitant.

"No, but. That's it." After Cheng Lang finished speaking, he signed and stamped the lease contract directly.And urged the factory owner to sign.

Although the factory owner looks vicious, he is also an extremely kind person inside.Hearing that the two children had such a miserable life experience, he couldn't do anything to bully the children.He choked up and said, "Let me sign it. You can change the compensation."

"Just change it to if Party A breaks the contract and wants to sublease the factory building to others within the contract period, Party B must be compensated a hundred times the compensation. If Party B goes bankrupt due to poor management, the lease contract will be terminated automatically. We don't need any compensation."

Cheng Lang didn't expect that he could have such an immediate effect by selling it badly, so he was a little stunned.

The proprietress patted her husband on the back, and said with a sob: "Listen to your uncle. That's how the contract is changed. We are so old, how can we bully a child who has no parents. That's not human."

Looking at the boss and his wife who were really emotional and crying, Cheng Lang felt a little guilty for some reason.

The proprietress urged Cheng Lang to change the contract while crying, and comforted Cheng Lang: "Don't think we are at a disadvantage. Don't you have to redecorate the workshop and office building after renting the factory? It will cost money! Even The contract is terminated, and your uncle and I can pick up the decoration of the two buildings for nothing. We will not suffer."

The factory owner also nodded heavily beside him, repeating: "No loss!"

Cheng Lang sighed.Urged by the crying and howling of the factory owner and his wife, they changed the contract very silently.However, Cheng Lang changed a total of two things, one being liquidated damages.The other one is that after three years, if the milk tea processing factory still maintains normal operation, then the rent will follow the value-added of the nearby land: "The old saying only lasts three years. If my milk tea factory is still booming after three years, then It proves that the feng shui of this piece of land is prosperous to me. The rent increase should also be."

The boss and the proprietress looked at each other with red eyes.I didn't expect that my tossing would be able to get this kind of result.Immediately felt a little embarrassed, as if taking advantage of the child.

Shen Huaiyu said with a smile: "This is what it should be. When my father was still alive, he often told me that what is good causes good results. We are all good people, and good people should have good rewards."

After finishing speaking, Shen Huaiyu smiled at Cheng Lang again.

Cheng Lang was still immersed in the disappointment that half of the cooked duck was sent back by himself, and he didn't notice Shen Huaiyu's smile.

Luo Pu looked on coldly, shaking his head in both irony and laughter.

After such a toss, it was getting late.Luopu left the factory owner and his wife to have dinner in the tea garden.

During the chat, the factory owner and his wife learned that Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu were both students of X University, and Shen Huaiyu was still a freshman in the Department of Archeology.Immediately surprised and happy.

"My son is also studying at X University. He is also in the Department of Archeology. This year he is in the second year of graduate school. It's still your brother!" The proprietress slapped her thigh: "Do you think this is fate?"

Shen Huaiyu's eyes sparkled when he heard this, and he asked curiously, "I don't know what this brother's name is? Maybe I've heard of it before?"

"Jin Huaiyuan!" The landlady said proudly.

Cheng Lang suddenly stopped holding his chopsticks.

Jin Huaiyuan, a graduate student in the Department of Archeology of X University.Why does it sound so familiar?

The system silently played an original text in its mind.Cheng Lang suddenly remembered.

Jin Huaiyuan, one of the cannon fodder stand-ins chosen by Lu Chengxuan in the original book.The two met through Shen Huaiyu.According to the description in the book, Jin Huaiyuan is a particularly gloomy and vicious male supporting role in the city.On the surface, he looks personable and gentle, but in fact he is a man who is greedy for vanity and will do anything for glory and wealth.In order to climb onto Lu Chengxuan's bed, he purposely approached Shen Huaiyu to deceive Shen Huaiyu's favor and trust, and took the opportunity to attract Lu Chengxuan's attention.After successfully climbing into Lu Chengxuan's bed, because he was dissatisfied with Lu Chengxuan's neglect, he climbed into another boss's bed.But he didn't expect that the boss was the owner of the largest auction house in City X on the surface, but secretly he was a dealer in cultural relics.

Jin Huaiyuan, as a graduate student in the Department of Archeology of X University, often followed his teacher to do some cultural relic restoration projects during his school days.He is particularly good at restoring porcelain and bronzes.So under the lure of that boss, he even embarked on the criminal path of counterfeiting cultural relics.Later, this gang of counterfeiting cultural relics was cracked by the police, and all the masterminds were arrested.The boss was sentenced to death, and Jin Huaiyuan was also sentenced to seven years.It is said that not long after being imprisoned, one of his hands was crippled.

Speaking of it, the original book doesn't seem to mention Jin Huaiyuan's background.

Cheng Lang was thoughtful and fell silent.

"It turned out to be Senior Brother Jin Huaiyuan!" Shen Huaiyu said with a little excitement: "He is well-known in our Department of Archeology. I heard that when he was an undergraduate student, he went to the tomb twice with Professor Zhang of our Department of Archeology! Two cultural relics restoration projects held by the Provincial Museum. I have also seen the porcelain and bronzes he restored, and the skills are great."

Hearing Shen Huaiyu boasting about their son, the factory owner and his wife couldn't help but laugh from ear to ear: "It's just a hobby. If it's not for food or money, my mother and I still worry about it! You say you're tinkering with those crap every day , I won’t even be able to marry a daughter-in-law in the future.”

Shen Huaiyu disagreed with the proprietress's words: "Brother Jin is so good at restoring cultural relics. It will definitely be no problem to find a job in the future."

Cheng Lang looked at the factory owner and his wife with a strange expression.

The proprietress noticed Cheng Lang's expression and asked, "What are you looking at?"

"It's nothing." Cheng Lang smiled and shook his head.He just couldn't imagine what kind of elegant and gentle Jin Huaiyuan was born by the factory owner and his wife.

The proprietress smiled and said: "Don't tell me, I took a closer look, and I think our family Huaiyuan looks a bit like the two of you. Do you think this is fate? When Huaiyuan comes home from rest, I will give you two Call and go to my house for dinner. Auntie will make dumplings for you. What kind of dumplings do you like to eat?"

Before she finished speaking, the proprietress looked at Luo Pu again, and was startled that she had missed someone, and immediately added: "Lao Luo, come over too. As the saying goes, distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. Neighbors and neighbors should often move around. Once you come and go, you will become acquainted. Many friends have many paths. Don’t you think so?”

Luo Pu said yes with a smile.I felt a little emotional in my heart, although the couple acted rough, but their hearts were pure and kind.The hospitality is old-fashioned.

After dinner, it was almost seven o'clock in the evening.The factory owner and his wife bid farewell and went home.Cheng Lang and Shen Huaiyu also went back to Bai Yujing to work.Luopu was too lazy to bother, and planned to sleep in the tea garden for the night.Everyone parted ways.

Cheng Lang drove back to Bai Yujing.On the way, Shen Huaiyu was a little excited to share some interesting stories about their archeology department with Cheng Lang: "...It would be great if I could also have the opportunity to participate in the cultural relics restoration project with the professor."

Cheng Lang encouraged him: "If you study hard and exercise hard, there will definitely be such a day."

It was almost 08:30 in the evening when the two arrived in Baiyujing.The foreman stands guard at the entrance of the employee passageway to catch late arrivals.

"Half an hour late, each person will be fined two hundred." The foreman snorted and said to Cheng Lang, "Meng Tianye is back."

Cheng Lang raised his eyebrows.

The head waiter pouted at the dance floor: "It's been a long time since I've been here. I've been muttering with Brother Wang since I came here, and I don't know what to talk about. Our old customers of Bai Yujing saw it, and they all booed him to sing. Now let's sing on it It's been almost half an hour."

The foreman asked nervously, "Did he come back to grab the pillars from you?"
