MTL - Blackstone Code-Chapter 4 When you do not resolutely oppose the first time, you have lost persistence
After leaving from Mr. Fox's side, Lynch walked around on the street. After the deal was negotiated, he would soon have the first payment, and the amount of this payment was directly related to how much he invested.
The more he invests, the higher the profit. In fact, even the top consortium will be very greedy for this kind of business.
During this time, he has been reading the newspaper, even if the whole world is engaged in development and construction, no matter how the financial economy improves, the annual rate of return promised by some funds has not exceeded 15%.
In the first quarter of this year, the "Trade News" disclosed some detailed data from last year. The one-year return rate of the foundation with the highest actual rate of return was only 9.74, which is less than 10%. It has become The most profitable fund last year.
So this sale is very important, but at the same time there is a new problem. He needs a "principal" in exchange for those change and coins.
Mr. Fox did not talk about the money. Based on his investigation of Lynch’s background, it’s impossible not to know that there is not even a hundred dollars in Lynch’s body and bank account, let alone his promise to help Mr. Fox complete the "transformation as soon as possible." "The scale.
He has to get another money. It doesn’t need to be too much. A few hundred yuan or one or two thousand is enough, because once it turns, the speed will only get faster and faster. For a small amount of money, he plans to talk to Catherine when he goes back in the evening. talk.
Although he felt that he did something like this..., but for the future, this is also something that can't be helped.
Time passed bit by bit while wandering. Today, Lynch returned home early. At 6:30 in the evening, Catherine walked back from the outside with a bag.
is the shredded meat scraps and some not-so-fresh-looking vegetables in the supermarket where she works today. These things are basically divided up by the employees. After all, the purpose of accepting oppression and exploitation here is to get these things for free.
Once back in the apartment, Catherine was a little surprised. During this time, Lynch would always come very late. He came back early like today. This was the first time in the family.
At the beginning, she still imagined that Lynch could honestly find a job, preferably in the factory.
Although the work in the factory is very hard and there are certain dangers, I have to say that the welfare and social security of the workers are the best.
Those big business owners not only need to take care of all aspects of them, but they can also join organizations like unions. Catherine, who works in a supermarket, cannot join them because she is not a worker.
Moreover, there is no such unofficial organization as the "Cashier Guild".
Nightmares are always immersed in it, but good dreams are easy to wake up.
For a week, Lynch, who seemed to have just re-energized, returned to the original starting point, but now he has changed a trick. He is no longer staying at home, but an excuse to find work and go out to spend time.
Catherine became frustrated when she thought of this place. She felt that her past choice was not just as simple as stupid, her eyes were also blind.
It is precisely because of these things that she realizes how correct her mother's words are—good-looking is useless, and life needs foundation, not good-looking.
She raised her head and glanced at Lynch, then changed her shoes and carried the bag into the kitchen, and began to wash the crumbs.
These minced meat scraps are all picked from the bone racks. The shapeless ones are mostly finger-sized pieces. For some reasons, they look more color than neatly placed beef. It's darker.
So even if their prices are very low, it is difficult to sell them. Most people buy them not for their own consumption, but to feed their dogs.
In fact, there is nothing wrong with these minced meat crumbs.
The silent atmosphere in the room is full of something that makes people feel uncomfortable, and that kind of thing is still spreading and surging.
Lynch sat on a sofa they picked up from the garbage dump and looked at his girlfriend who was silently handling food. It was obvious that the distance between the two was less than ten meters, but it seemed that an abyss appeared in the middle.
"Do you... have any extra money?" Lynch asked.
The movements in Catherine's hand paused slightly. She did not turn her head or say anything. After a short pause, she continued to deal with the work she was doing. "There are some, less than five hundred yuan, which I saved this year."
It is not easy to save money, especially for young people with only high school education.
Rent, electricity, water, heating, some necessary expenses and losses, plus two people living with only one person working, it is very difficult to save more than 400 yuan.
Suddenly, there was something heavy in the treacherous atmosphere, which pressed against the chests of the two people.
Neither of them spoke again until Catherine made dinner.
As always, the crumbs plus fried eggs, some tattered vegetable leaves, and some lasagna crumbled into one or two centimeters.
These are things that supermarkets need to discard every day. Now they support many poor families.
"My mother came to me today..." Catherine broke her peace while eating, "She doesn't want us to continue like this, but I can't convince her..."
Lynch put down the knife and fork and watched the plate in front of the girl add some fresh "seasoning", which was transparent, a bit bitter, and slightly salty.
In fact, Catherine has already said very clearly. She cannot persuade her mother, so one of them must be persuaded by the other, and it is only possible that she was persuaded.
The things that were not very tasty on the plate became even more unpalatable. Lynch sighed, "When will you leave?"
Catherine was about to collapse, "Tomorrow, my mother and brother will come to pick me up, I'm sorry, I don't want this, but..."
"Okay, you don't need to apologize, it's me who should apologize!" Lynch reached out and touched the girl's tear-soaked cheek~www.novelbuddy.com~ He needs to pay for what his body did before.
For two young people for more than two years, all the burden of life has been on this girl who is only twenty years old.
There is no doubt that Lynch is a scumbag, a scumbag.
This kind of life gradually wiped out all the girl's fantasy about romance and the future. After experiencing these, she began to bow to reality and fate, even if she might still retain a trace of fantasy in the deepest part of her heart.
For example...
No. For example, Lynch will not ask the girl to stay. Whether she says she wants to leave first, or she is still uncertain in the future, she is definitely full of some uneasy and dangerous lives, which is not suitable for this girl.
Although it is cruel to say that, the fact is the fact.
After the two experienced an unforgettable night, Catherine left with her things early the next morning, but they also left something for Lynch.
A passbook and the key to the apartment.
I want to thank the bank for not caring about who comes to deposit and withdraw the money in the passbook. This may also be proof that Catherine bid farewell to her past life.
Cleaned up his own Lynch again. In the morning, he took out all the money in his passbook, 449 yuan and 35 cents.
Then he found the landlord, and after talking with the landlord for about half an hour, he refunded one hundred yuan for the house with half a month left-originally it was seventy-five yuan, but Lynch didn’t need those things. .
The landlord felt that this transaction could not be regarded as a loss, and finally agreed and gave an extra 25 yuan.
The change is reserved to meet the needs of the first few days of life, and the rest will be rolled into his plan. He is already a little impatient, and he desperately wants to teach this simple world.
