Gao Qisheng had just hung up the phone when Gao Qiqiang pushed the door open and entered.
"Little Sheng!" Gao Qiqiang looked at Gao Qisheng and frowned.
"Brother…" Gao Qisheng stood up, his eyes evasive.
"Are you hiding something from me?”Gao Qiqiang looked at Gao Qisheng and asked in a deep voice.
Gao Qisheng's mouth moved, but he didn't say anything for a long time.
Seeing Gao Qisheng like this, Gao Qiqiang's heart softened. He stepped forward and grabbed Gao Qisheng's shoulder,"We brothers, what can't we say? If you have something to say, you have to tell me!”
"Brother…I..." Gao Qisheng hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said,"" Yes, there's something. It's my university classmate, Cao Bin. He called me two days ago and asked me for a recommendation fee of 25,000 yuan. If I don't give it to him, he'll cut off our relationship with the telephone company and make us unable to do it…"
"Why is your classmate such a person?”Gao Qiqiang was angry when he heard that and cursed.
Then, before Gao Qisheng could speak, Gao Qiqiang seemed to be angry and stretched out his hand."Tell him that we won't give him a single cent. At most, we won't do this business anymore!”
"Hey, hey, brother!" Gao Qisheng quickly stopped Gao Qiqiang and said,"We've already invested a lot in the past. Now, we're just short of this last step. If we don't do it, won't we spend so much money in vain?”
Gao Qiqiang was just speaking in a fit of anger. After calming down a little, he bit his lip and looked unhappy.
After walking around the room twice, Gao Qiqiang said,""That day, your Brother Shuwen looked like he was with President Gong…Our relationship seems to be quite good. If we ask your Brother Shuwen for help, we should be able to talk, right?”
Gao Qisheng shook his head helplessly and said,"Impossible, Brother. Cao Bin's father has been in a relationship with Gong Kaijiang for many years. Brother Shuwen has only known that guy for a few days? If we go to Shuwen Bro and talk about this, aren't we making things difficult for him? Perhaps it would even destroy the relationship that Shuwen had painstakingly built.”
Gao Qiqiang frowned and thought that his younger brother was right.
If he went up to speak, he would put Shuwen in a difficult position. Moreover, he had already helped his family so much, so he was too embarrassed to speak.
"How much money do you have left?" Gao Qiqiang thought for a moment and asked Gao Qisheng.
"There's still about 7,000 yuan left. I'm short of nearly 20,000 yuan.”Gao Qisheng said softly.
A single coin was enough to stump a hero, let alone 20,000 yuan.
Seeing that Gao Qiqiang did not speak, Gao Qisheng hesitated for a moment and said,"Do you want to borrow some from Brother Shuwen? When the shop opens, we'll be able to pay him back soon.”
"That day, we ate over 6,000 yuan. Shuwen paid for it. When they went out to drink, they would definitely spend more. We haven't been to Bai Jinhan, so haven't we heard of it? In addition, he had run to the company before, so he probably didn't have much money on hand, right?”Gao Qiqiang said.
After a slight pause, Gao Qiqiang continued,"Besides, if you go to borrow money from Shuwen, he will definitely ask what's going on. If he asks, how are you going to answer him? Tell him that your classmate wants a recommendation fee? With Shuwen's temper, he would definitely look for President Gong…Don't affect him again. I don't think we should tell your Brother Shuwen about this. We can't help him much, so we should try our best not to drag him down.”
Gao Qisheng nodded and didn't say anything else.
Gao Qiqiang seemed to have thought of something and asked Gao Qisheng,"By the way, Little Dragon and Little Tiger came to the fish stall to look for me today. They talked about this. You told them, right?”
"I just said a few words when we were chatting the other day.”Gao Qisheng did not hide anything and said directly.
It was different from the original story. In the original story, Gao Qiqiang was very opposed to Gao Qisheng getting involved with people like the Tang brothers. But now it was different. He naturally would not have any intense reaction because of this.
"Go downstairs and buy some beer. I've asked them to come over for dinner tonight. When I was at the fish stall earlier, I felt that they had something to say. Perhaps they could help…" Gao Qiqiang thought for a moment and ordered.
"Alright, then brother, I'll go now!”Gao Qisheng immediately replied.
Gao Qiqiang didn't stay idle either. He turned around and took out some ingredients from the refrigerator. He walked into the kitchen and began to prepare dinner to entertain the Tang brothers.
This night was destined to be an unusual one. The small fries encountered difficulties, and the big shots in the city also encountered problems.
An Xin went undercover in the Crazy Donkey Group to investigate Huang Cuicui's case, but she accidentally discovered an even bigger conspiracy. The boss behind Bai Jinhan, under the name of 'going up the mountain', was actually organizing a yacht to rope in corrupt officials and hold a party at sea.
An Xin reported this situation to the municipal bureau. Meng Dehai was also prepared to arrest these people, but under An Changlin's persuasion, he still went to the city to report the situation.
As a result, the news leaked out. Not only did the arrest fail, but An Xin was almost killed by Crazy Donkey on the small fishing boat.
It was also at this moment that An Xin became suspicious of the city bureau team. She felt that there were bad people hiding in the team beside her!
That night, Tang Xiaolong and Tang Xiaohu arrived at Gao Qiqiang's house as promised.
These two people did not come empty-handed. They had brought something with them. Tang Xiaohu even carried a bag of familiar braised beef!
"Brother Qiang, we're here." Tang Xiaolong greeted him with a smile.
"Quick, quick, sit down. I've also prepared the dishes. Little Hu, come in and help me carry the dishes out.”Gao Qiqiang greeted enthusiastically.
"Hey!" Tang Xiaohu replied. He did not delay and went in to help.
Gao Qisheng also picked up the beer from the side, took out the wine glass, and placed it on the table."Drink some later."
The few of them sat down and chatted for a while. Then, Tang Xiaohu was the first to ask,"Brother Qiang, did we misunderstand what happened in the afternoon?”
As soon as Tang Xiaohu spoke, the table fell silent. Tang Xiaolong also looked at Gao Qiqiang with confusion in his eyes.
Gao Qiqiang put down the wine glass in his hand and shook his head helplessly." Little Sheng didn't say anything to me. I only found out when I came back and asked. He's short of money…"
"Brother Qiang, how much is the gap on your side?”Tang Xiaolong asked.
Gao Qiqiang did not hide anything and said in a deep voice,"About twenty thousand."
Tang Xiaolong frowned and glanced at his younger brother. Tang Xiaohu immediately said,"Brother Qiang, you know that we're working with Brother Wen now. However, we agreed before that we have to pay 30,000 yuan to the company. Although Brother Wen hasn't urged us to do this, my brother and I are also thinking about it…"
"Yes, I know about this. I was there at that time. We talked about it at my house.”Gao Qiqiang nodded.
There was indeed such a thing!
"That's why the two of us have been a little anxious about this these past few days.”"Brother Qiang, Boss Bai of the Lower Bay Mining Sand Field is willing to pay us 20,000 yuan to teach someone a lesson…" Tang Xiaolong continued.
" How can you do such a thing!?" Gao Qiqiang immediately retorted.
"Brother Qiang, I'm just teaching him a lesson. I'm just beating up that person who owes money. It's not a big deal. The two of us brothers have done it in the past…" Tang Xiaohu quickly said.
"Sometimes, we don't even need to do anything. We just need to scare them. Really, Brother Qiang.”Tang Xiaolong quickly chimed in.
As the two of them talked, Gao Qiqiang gradually wavered. At the same time, he looked at his younger brother Gao Qisheng, who looked like he wanted to say something but hesitated, and his heart ached.
It was all because he was useless as a brother. If he could earn more money, there would not be such a problem today.
"It's true…It's nothing serious?" Gao Qiqiang hesitated for a moment before he could not help but ask.
"It's true!" Tang Xiaolong said quickly.
Gao Qiqiang nodded, but he quickly said," That's useless. The two of you are short of 30,000 yuan, and I'm short of 20,000 yuan. That's a total of 50,000 yuan. Even if that Boss Bai really gives you 20,000 yuan, it won't be enough…"
"Brother Qiang, we don't need that much. Xiaohu and I are preparing to sell the television at home. We've already discussed the price with someone. We've also gathered some money during this period of time. We're only short of a few thousand yuan. When the time comes, we'll split it evenly between us…It can solve some problems." Tang Xiaolong said.
Gao Qiqiang calculated in his heart. If he went to Li Shuwen and asked to borrow 20,000 yuan, he would be embarrassed to say it.
However, if it was just a few thousand yuan, he could still ask. This way, if Li Shuwen asked, it would be easier to fool him so that he wouldn't worry.
In fact, Tang Xiaolong did not intend to call Gao Qiqiang. He only had this idea when he heard Gao Qisheng mention this matter two days ago.
Gao Qiqiang and Gao Qisheng would most likely become in-laws with Brother Wen in the future. If the two brothers helped the Gao brothers at this time, would Brother Wen not miss them in the future?
If there was anything good, how could he forget about the two brothers?
That was why Tang Xiaolong came to talk about this matter today.
After thinking for a while, Gao Qiqiang looked at Tang Xiaolong and said,"Then when are we going?"
"Hehe, Brother Qiang, wait for me for a day or two. I'll find some news on my side, and we'll go together.”Tang Xiaolong immediately smiled and said.
Gao Qiqiang didn't refuse when he heard this. He nodded half-heartedly. Then, this topic was skipped, and the few of them began to drink again.
However, he didn't know if it was an illusion, but Gao Qiqiang felt that the dishes he cooked today seemed to lack some taste in his mouth.
It was not as fragrant as before.
