That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1230 What Do They Want? (Two in One)

In a hotel in San Francisco, Wu Yan was holding the phone and negotiating with the person on the other end: "I warn you, release our people immediately. If they are injured, you must compensate us for our medical expenses and mental damages."

"You guys are really shameless for money! If you hadn't found Boss Luo last night, you would have given me $50,000, not a cent less. Now that you are shameless, I will give you $100,000. If you don't give me $100,000, then we will see you in court."

"See you in court? Okay, the 24 hours are almost up now. Once the 24 hours are up, we will call the police and get to the bottom of this matter. We will fight to the death."

"."

Wu Yan's tone was very firm, but beads of sweat appeared on his face.

Because saying those words was not his real intention at all!

After returning last night, Li Ye wrote a piece of "Negotiation Guidelines" for Wu Yan in advance. Every word on it scared Wu Yan.

"Li Ye, they won't kill us, right? We brought them here. Even if they are worthless, we have to take them back."

"Don't worry, if they come to us, it means they are afraid."

"What if they don't take the initiative to find us?"

"Then I will pay a million in lawyer fees to sue. Believe me, Wu Yan. In the land of Dengta, money can make the devil go. We haven't really broken the law, so why should we be afraid of them?"

"."

Although Elena said that this matter is difficult to handle, that is only an assessment based on "whether it is cost-effective". When you ignore the cost, black can be turned into white.

Wu Yan tossed and turned all night and didn't sleep well. After all, Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi were now in each other's hands. There had been no news since he made a call for help in the afternoon. He didn't know how much suffering he would have to endure if he endured another night.

However, when Wu Yan received the call the next morning, he had to admire Li Ye's foresight.

Because although the other party did not say it directly, he implied that he could "have pity on you for the sake of being from the same hometown."

Doesn’t this match what Li Ye expected?

So Wu Yan held the phone in one hand and the negotiation guidelines written by Li Ye in the other, and argued with the other party as if he was negotiating with the gangsters.

The other party was also a little exasperated and threatened fiercely: "Don't think this is the mainland, this is a lighthouse. I advise you to find a lawyer first to ask how difficult it is for them to get away with this situation."

"Then we will find the embassy. You are also flower growers. Don't take things to the extreme. Everyone has a hometown and a family."

"."

Because of Wu Yan's toughness, the negotiations between the two sides naturally came to no avail, but Chen Juming's situation was no better than Wu Yan's.

"Sister Chen, they will be able to report missing persons in a few hours. Should we report it right away? Otherwise, we will miss the right time to report it, and it will be troublesome if the police come to our house."

"."

"Sister Chen, I found out that those people went to see Boss Luo and Hong Datou last night. It seems that they were trying to find out your background."

"."

"Sister Chen, a lawyer named Elena contacted me. This matter seems to be a bit tricky."

Chen Juming's phone kept ringing for the whole morning, and all of it was bad news.

She is now very regretful, regretting that she made the wrong decision to "test the waters" after receiving a call from her hometown this morning.

This is also a normal human reaction after an emergency.

After Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi were harassed by his own people last night, Wu Yan hurriedly collected money and wanted to get them out without saying a word.

When Chen Juming received a call from her mother, she was also very confused at that moment.

That's why she decided to give it a try, but something went wrong.

Chen Juming still hasn't figured out why someone came looking for her parents right after she trapped Li Ye's two men.

You have to know that Chen Juming would never show up when his subordinates were working. Logically speaking, even if he cheated Li Ye, Li Ye would not know who was cheating him.

So after receiving the call from his parents, Chen Juming asked his subordinates to tell them to have pity on them.

According to past experience, the other party will definitely spend money to avoid disaster at this time without wasting a minute.

After all, these fat sheep are not the kind of social types who can't afford to lose face.

Whether they benefit from it or go back on their word, it will still be up to Chen Juming to decide.

But even though I feel sorry for the other party, he is taking advantage of me. Either he is crazy because of poverty, or he has seen through my weakness.

No matter which one it is, it is not what Chen Juming wants.

[I would have not tried it earlier. Fifty thousand dollars is not a penny less.]

"Dingling bell~Dingling bell~"

Chen Juming's phone rang again. After answering it, it turned out to be another call from home, but this time it was from her father.

"Xiao Ming! Dad wants to ask you something. What kind of business are you doing now?"

Chen Juming's heart tightened, and she pretended to be calm and said, "Dad, why are you asking this suddenly? Didn't I just send a batch of foreign trade from your factory recently?"

Father Chen was silent for a few seconds, then said, "Maybe I'm overthinking it. Just now, those few people came to our house again. They said they wanted to ask for something, but I thought they were evasive and a little suspicious."

Chen Juming's heart sank.

His father was much more astute than his mother and obviously heard something wrong.

The other party is obviously hovering in front of the window paper and making threats, and there is no telling when the window paper will be broken.

【what to do? 】

Chen Juming gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.

In the first few years after she came to Lighthouse, she planned to bring her parents to Lighthouse for a reunion after she got settled down, but her parents refused to agree.

But when Chen Juming's business failed and she got into a side business in anger, she had the idea of ​​returning to her roots.

Girls who go into the adult industry all want to go home and clean themselves up in the end.

Although Chen Juming was not going into the adultery, she also planned to make a large sum of dollars, then return to the mainland to "bring honor to her family" and then find someone to marry.

After nearly a decade of wandering in a foreign land, Chen Juming has seen through many things and realized clearly where home is.

Besides, she also wanted to try again to see if she could break the so-called "husband-killing fate" by moving to a new place.

Chen Juming was originally pregnant with Cao Yuanmao's child, but after Cao Yuanmao died, she found a small private clinic to dispose of the child.

Now Chen Juming often wakes up from dreams, wondering if she has done something wrong to end up like this.

But if Chen Juming's secrets were to spread to her hometown, her way home would be completely blocked.

[Your daughter is setting up a honey trap, and she still claims to be innocent? Has Xiao Ming never married? Do you want to give her a memorial archway? ]

If this kind of gossip spreads among flower growers, the consequences will be disastrous and can really kill people.

"Hello? Xiao Ming, are you listening?"

"I'm listening, Dad. Did those people leave you their contact information? I know a few friends in Chinatown, but we lost contact after Cao Yuanmao died. I'll try now, but I can't guarantee that I can help."

When Father Chen heard this, his tone suddenly became much more relaxed: "The phone number is, but Xiao Ming, you don't have to force yourself. You have to take care of yourself first when you are outside."

"It's okay, Dad. It's just a matter of talking to him for a few minutes. It's still unclear whether it will work or not!"

"."

After Chen Juming hung up the phone with her father, she dialed the number she had written down.

"Hey, who are you looking for?"

"."

Hearing Li Ye's voice coming from the other end of the line, Chen Juming wanted to throw the phone in her hand.

But after a moment, she said calmly: "I am the person you invited to help."

Li Ye also smiled and said, "Hello, hello, are you sure you can help?"

Chen Juming: "That depends on what price you pay."

Li Ye replied immediately: "If my people really made a mistake, I can accept the punishment, but if they were framed, I have to make them pay the price."

"."

"Let's meet and talk!"

"it is good."

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Chen Juming wanted to talk to Li Ye, and Li Ye readily agreed. However, the address Chen Juming gave was not Chinatown, but a parking lot near the Golden Gate Bridge.

When Li Ye brought a large group of people to the agreed location, he discovered that there was only Chen Juming and one car.

Li Ye smiled and said, "She's really brave! Isn't she afraid that we'll tie her up?"

Jiang Shiqi shook his head and said, "She probably doesn't want to lose face in front of her subordinates. A woman doing this kind of business must not show weakness, otherwise she won't be able to control her subordinates at all."

"Oh, making money like this that hurts the world will backfire sooner or later."

Li Ye smiled coldly, and then said: "Don't go over there, I can go over there by myself."

"That won't work. What if she gets desperate?"

"Within seven steps, I am faster than a gun."

Li Ye, Qu Qingyou and others discussed for a long time, and finally got out of the car a few dozen meters away and watched Li Ye walk towards Chen Juming.

After seeing Sister Zhen in the crowd, Chen Juming suddenly understood why Li Ye had found out about her so quickly.

Li Ye walked closer and said calmly, "Boss Chen, long time no see?"

Chen Juming stared at Li Ye in silence for a long time before saying coldly, "It's not that long, only one year and nine months."

Li Ye said with a smile: "Oh, Boss Chen remembers it so clearly, it seems that he is very resentful towards me!"

"Ha~"

Chen Juming laughed at himself and said, "Anyone who has gone from heaven to hell will have a lot of resentment."

Li Ye looked at the slight crow's feet at the corners of Chen Juming's eyes, as if he had tasted the meaning of her words just now.

Two years ago, Chen Juming was the director of Polaroid Clothing, and her life was indeed very glorious. But now Chen Juming is making money through shady means, and it is not an exaggeration to say that she is living in hell.

The feelings and stories before the fall are so touching to think about.

Li Ye collected his thoughts and said calmly, "If you have a grudge against me, then come after me, don't take your anger out on innocent people."

“Hahahaha~hahaha~”

Chen Juming laughed so hard that tears almost came out.

Then she pointed at Li Ye and said, "How can you say that? Don't vent your anger on innocent people. Did you do that?"

Li Ye hired someone to harass Chen Juming's parents, which already made Chen Juming resentful. Now that Li Ye said this, Chen Juming felt ridiculous.

But Li Ye said calmly: "Do unto others as you would have done unto me. You do it on the first day and I will do it on the fifteenth. Since you are so mean, don't blame me for being cruel."

"How do I know they are your people? They bumped into us on their own, and you were the first to break the rules."

Chen Juming stiffened his neck and began to argue, as if he had suffered a great injustice. After all, at the beginning, Chen Juming did not know that Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi had any connection with Li Ye.

But Li Ye said coldly: "Do you know now?"

"."

Chen Juming stared at Li Ye with wide eyes, as if he was a fighting cock, ready to pounce on him and peck him at any time.

But after holding on for a while, Chen Juming finally wilted.

"I'll help you get your people back as soon as possible, but you have to go to my parents' house and thank them in a big way."

It has to be said that Chen Juming was still very cautious. She did not admit that she was the mastermind, and she asked Li Ye's people to come to thank her parents.

Only in this way can parents at home feel at ease.

However, Li Ye smiled faintly and said, "Fifty thousand dollars."

Chen Juming was stunned: "What did you say?"

Li Ye repeated, "My people have been wronged. You have to give us fifty thousand dollars as compensation."

"."

"Do you really think you won?"

Chen Juming sneered and said, "Your two employees are newly married and both have just had sons. If someone writes to your company to report that they are being hooligans in Dengta."

Li Ye: "."

[What a stupid teammate! He even got to know my family situation. ]

Li Ye never expected that Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi's secrets had been exposed.

Chen Juming was afraid that her parents at home would be affected, and Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi were also afraid of rumors and slander.

"Two thousand, no less."

Li Ye stretched out two fingers. It didn't matter how much money it was, as long as he had face.

"make a deal."

Chen Juming agreed without hesitation, got into the car, stepped on the accelerator and drove away.

Wu Yan and others hurried over.

"Li Ye, how are things going? Have Lao Jie and the others been saved?"

"What do you mean they can be saved? They haven't done anything wrong, why should we save them? They will be back soon."

Li Ye scolded Wu Yan for a few words, and then said: "I have to warn you a few words! After returning to China, no one should gossip about others, otherwise I will fire him."

"Okay, okay, I won't tell anyone after we return home, but aren't we at the lighthouse now? When they come back, I have to ask them what vixen bewitched them."

"."

. . . . . . . . . . .

That night, Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi came back.

Li Ye checked carefully and found that they were just listless, but had no injuries on their bodies.

Li Ye was angry, but still asked with concern: "I didn't hit you, did I?"

Lao Jie said gloomily: "No, they just locked us up and wouldn't let us leave."

"Li Ye, stop asking about their well-being and let me interrogate them."

Wu Yan pushed Li Ye aside, and then shouted at Lao Jie fiercely: "Lao Jie, what's wrong with you? Chen Yazhi is young and can't control himself, and you are so old and obsessed with sex?"

Lao Jie was stunned for a moment, then his face suddenly fell: "Don't talk nonsense, we don't have it"

Lao Jie’s wife Zhou Ziqing is Wu Yan’s senior sister. If Wu Yan talks nonsense after he returns, Lao Jie will even want to die.

Fortunately, Chen Yazhi was not one to suffer a loss, and he started to complain on the spot: "Chief Wu, please stop talking, we are really in a miserable situation this time!"

"We went to Chinatown together that day. You guys, who can feed your whole family with your own food, ate lavishly. My husband and I couldn't bear to leave, so we decided to buy some bread to make do.

Then, at the corner of the street, two women approached us and said that they ran a snack bar, and their food was cheap and delicious, and they hoped that we would take care of their business.

Lao Jie and I didn’t want to go at first, but they pitifully talked about how difficult their lives were, so we softened our hearts and followed them. Who knew that the snack bar they were talking about didn’t sell food?”

"."

"So if they ask you to go, then you should go. Didn't Director Li say that you are not allowed to go through the alleys?"

"We never thought that they chatted with us for a long time. They spoke Beijing dialect and were definitely from the same hometown as us. They even knew where our company was located."

Chen Yazhi's long complaints finally let Li Ye know the whole story.

The man came up and started to flirt with the two idiots, even getting them to reveal their family members, and then told them to "take care of the business", and then the two of them followed him into the alley.

I have to say, when grown men face weak women, their sense of vigilance is really low!

Wu Yan said angrily: "Don't say these useless things. I just want to ask you two, have you done anything shameful? Have you taken off your pants?"

"."

Chen Yazhi was stunned for a moment, then jumped up.

"Chief Wu, I swear to God, you said we can do anything, but we really haven't done anything shameless. We are cowardly enough to begin with, please don't wrongly accuse us."

"Don't pretend. If you don't see the truth, how can others control you?"

"Really not! Really not."

Seeing that Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi were almost suffocated to death, Li Ye reached out and pulled Wu Yan away.

"Okay, I know you are innocent, so I asked them to pay you two thousand yuan. Where is the money?"

This is the reason why Li Ye insisted on asking Chen Juming for two thousand yuan. If the other party had not framed Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi, why should he pay compensation?

But Lao Jie and Chen Yazhi were stunned for a moment, and then they stammered, "We gave them all the money we had yesterday, and they returned it to us today. A total of 2,100 yuan, but this money is ours."

Li Ye was stunned and was so angry that he almost went to settle the score with Chen Juming.

But Wu Yan figured something out and explained to everyone: "Okay, okay, since they have returned the money to you, it proves that you are innocent. But you must remember in the future that you cannot trust anyone outside, especially our own people."

Chen Yazhi immediately agreed: "I'll remember this, Chief. From now on, whenever one of our own people talks to me, I will pretend to be dumb!"

But Lao Jie sighed and said, "Look at these people. Isn't it good for them to live a good life in our flower-growing country? Why do they come across the ocean to do this kind of business? What are they trying to achieve?"

Li Ye looked at the desolate old Jie, smiled and patted his shoulder: "Old Jie, it's better for them to do this kind of business here than in our house, right?"

"In our hometown? Should I tear off the roof for him?"

"That's right, this is just a beacon. If it were in our capital, their legs would be broken and they would be paraded through the streets."

"."

Li Ye looked at a group of strong young men bragging aggressively and could only shake his head helplessly.

It won’t be long before they have version 2.0, and Chen Juming’s business will have no choice but to move to the mainland market.
