Chapter 46 The Great Man's Request
"What happened?" My cousin looked at me anxiously.
I shook my head. "Lin Mu just told me that something happened at the company and asked me to go over there. If you have nothing else to do, come with me. If something does happen, at least there will be more people around to help with advice."
The search for the Soul-Restoring Pearl has been going on for such a long time, so it won't take much longer.
Then he nodded, and we rushed to the agency together.
When he arrived at the company gate, Lin Mu was standing alone shivering, and the company door was not opened.
Next to the trees, there were several men in black suits.
They look ferocious and each of them is fat and has big ears. You can tell at a glance that they are not easy to mess with.
"Wow...what should I do...?"
My cousin was also a little scared at this time, standing behind me, at a loss as to what to do.
I thought about it carefully: "Although the company has not had any performance recently, the turnover in the first half of the year can sustain our livelihood for the next few months, and we don't owe any rent for the store. This shouldn't be a debt collection, right?"
"Could it be that Suzuki has borrowed money from outside, and now someone is coming to collect the debt?"
I frowned. I knew Lin Mu's character very well. He didn't smoke, drink, or gamble. How could he have owed foreign debts?
"Wait here for me, I'll go over and take a look."
As I said that, I walked towards the direction of the forest.
Seeing someone approaching, Suzuki raised his head in panic.
As soon as he saw that it was me, tears welled up in his eyes.
"Oh my god, you're finally here! Come over here quickly, you scared me to death!"
As Lin Mu spoke, he kept an eye on the burly men around him.
"what happened?"
I looked at Lin Mu, then at the big men, frowned and asked a little impatiently.
"Are you Wen Jie?" A leader among the burly men came out and asked me.
I nodded, but didn't answer him.
"It's like this, we need your help with something."
The man suddenly bowed towards me with a somewhat respectful expression, and Lin Mu next to me was also frightened.
"So what's going on now? Why didn't you tell me before you asked him for help? I was scared to death, I thought he was in foreign debt !"
Lin Mu suddenly felt that this matter was not as complicated as he had imagined, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
I'm a little confused. What's going on?
"I'm sorry, Mr. Lin, we can only connect with Mr. Wen. Please open the door of the company and provide us with a place to chat."
Although those burly men had something to ask me, from their tone it sounded like they also wanted my help.
But they were too strong and Lin Mu didn't dare to offend them. He had to open the door of the company and give the meeting room to those burly men.
My cousin was originally planning to go to the flea market, but was delayed by this incident and the flea market is probably closed.
He didn't know where to go for a moment, so the company door was open, so he sat in the store with Lin Mu.
"I don't know what they are doing. Why are they so mysterious?"
While complaining, Lin Mu handed his cousin a cup of tea.
…
On the other side, I entered the conference room with a few big men and sat in the main seat.
They looked at each other, not knowing where to start.
Since they asked me for help, I naturally didn't rush and just sat there waiting.
After a while, Lin Mu came in with a few cups of tea.
The leader started talking only after Lin Mu left.
"Here's the thing. Our boss recently invested in a piece of land that was previously an abandoned school. Our boss wants to renovate it and open a primary school and a middle school in the village. But before we even started, strange things kept happening. We heard that there's a Mr. Wen in the agency here, that's you, who can help solve similar problems, so we were wondering if you could do us a favor and go with us to take a look."
The big man first introduced himself. His name was Hu Yue.
Just by hearing his name, one could sense that he had an extraordinary background. Coupled with his sturdy figure, he was indeed intimidating.
"I probably can't help you with this matter, but I can recommend someone to you."
I touched my nose and thought of my cousin sitting outside.
Ever since I was struck by an ancient curse, I try my best not to touch such things.
I'm just afraid that I'll get sick while cleaning the house, and then it'll affect my team members.
In addition, the agency needs Lin Mu and I to manage it together, and my recent goal is to make money, and I don’t want to get involved in this kind of thing anymore.
Hu Yue looked at me and raised his eyebrows: "Before coming to see you, I also did some research on you. I know that your cousin is also an expert in house cleaning. How about this, you introduce your cousin to us, and you will also get the introduction fee. What do you think?"
Everyone would definitely want to make some money by doing it for free.
I nodded and asked them to wait in the meeting room. I turned around, left the store, and found my cousin.
I heard what Hu Yue said, so I mentioned it to my cousin, and he expressed his willingness to take the job.
My cousin and I returned to the conference room and they began to discuss the details and remuneration of the matter.
Since it had nothing to do with me, I left the store and smoked with Lin Mu.
"What's the situation with those people?" Lin Mu was a little confused: "Just looking for your help?"
I nodded, but for some reason, I felt that this matter was not simple.
If they just wanted my help, why didn't they tell Lin Mu about this before?
Besides, from what Hu Yue said, I could infer that they opened a school in the village for charity.
Since this piece of land is not suitable, then invest in another piece of land, it won’t be a big problem.
Why spend hundreds of thousands to hire us to help clean the house?
There must be something else going on in this matter, but as long as I am not involved, I will not know the situation.
They keep their mouths shut and people who are not involved will never get any information from them.
"Is the reward generous? If it's just a few tens of thousands of dollars, I advise you not to do it. This group of people doesn't look simple, I'm afraid something will happen."
Lin Mu was a little worried, and that was actually what I was thinking as well.
But to be honest, from the moment they walked into the store, we had to help them.
"Look at that group of people. They look ferocious. If we don't help, we might all die here. It's okay. Let the water flood the land."
