Chapter 76: Go ask for money! (8th update!)
On the bank of the Yangtze River, the river breeze blew late at night, making the hands and feet of passers-by cold, and making passers-by involuntarily wrap their clothes tightly and quicken their pace.

Ahmed stood proudly facing the river breeze, holding the phone in his left hand and praying with his right hand. Then he put the microphone to his lips and asked in a trembling voice:

"how do you feel?"

"It feels so good!" Khalid's cheerful voice came from the phone, followed by an even more excited scream:
"You know what? You missed a big event."

"You should have come back. You should have seen the scene with your own eyes."

"The earth shook, flames burst forth, and even if I used all the words I've learned in my life, I still couldn't describe that feast."

"We made those damn Americans feel the pain of being under fire."

"Please help little Sadr tell Lin Yi that Sadr will always remember him."

These excited words did not move Ahmed. He just held the phone and listened quietly to Khalid's words.

After the person on the other end of the phone finished talking and there was no more sound, he said softly:

"We have been pawns from the beginning to the end."

As a member of the Sadr movement, Ahmed has not had an easy time these past two days.

After all, everything he has comes from the Sadr movement.

Ever since he learned that Khalid and others had taken action, he had been waiting, waiting for the reaction of Americans, the reaction of Middle Eastern countries, and Khalid's response.

If the Americans cannot find a suitable target to vent their anger, the Sadr movement will have a hard time in the future. Then he must find ways to obtain various resources and then transport them back to Iraq and into the hands of the organization.

At this moment, after receiving the news from Khalid, he finally let go of his worry.

After he felt relieved, the words that Lin Yi had said involuntarily emerged in his mind again.

He now desperately wanted to find someone to tell all these words to.

And Khalid, who is knowledgeable and experienced, is just the right person to talk to.

The sudden words seemed to have pressed the pause button on Khalid on the other end of the phone. His cheerful voice disappeared, leaving only a hoarse sound from his throat.

After a long while, the strange spitting sound disappeared, and then Khalid's heavy words came out:

"Ahmed, you have to understand that the fact that we can still be used as pawns in the hands of others means that we are still useful and there is still hope."

"But if one day we are no longer qualified to be pawns in the hands of others, it means that we are completely useless and there is no hope for us."

“Times are changing.”

"It's the 21st century now, and not all the rules that existed before the 21st century apply."

"Remember?"

"Remember this and tell Lin Yi that Sadr will always remember him."

After he finished speaking, Khalid hung up the phone. Ahmed put down the phone with a melancholy look on his face and looked at the river in front of him.

The river rolls forward, and in the river are ships going upstream.

Looking at the lights emitted from the ship, Ahmed felt that the lights were brighter and more dazzling than the stars.

After gazing at the river for a while, he decided to go back first, and then find two money trees tomorrow and personally deliver them to Lin Yi's factory to express his gratitude to him.

…………

On the other side, Xiaomi Heavy Industry Factory.

“Finally done!”

In the finance office, Ji Shuangshuang, who had been busy all day, sat up straight, hummed lazily, raised his hands and stretched.

The curvy figure is fully revealed at this moment.

After a busy day, I finally finished the previous work and also arranged the work for the next two days.

Next Christmas, she can have a good rest and enjoy the festive atmosphere.

After stretching her muscles, she stood up, turned off the computer first, then collected all the keys inserted in the computer and the seals on the desk, stuffed them all into the safe in the finance office, locked it, and left work.

I opened the door while humming a song, only to find a figure leaning against the office door opposite.

He is my own boss.

Seeing Lin Yi's handsome face, she suddenly remembered what Lin Yi said two days ago. Her face turned red, and she quickly turned her head away and turned around to pretend to lock the door.

While locking the door, he turned his back to Lin Yi and said hello with a smile:
"Isn't the boss off work yet?"

"Wait for you!"

"what?"

"Get up early tomorrow morning."

"what?"

"Come with me early, go to the Magic City, and ask for money from Miles Company."

"what?"

"Did you hear that?"

"But I told you two days ago that I'm going to take tomorrow off to celebrate the festival, and you said you wanted to go with me."

"Yes, it costs money to go to Modou together! Get up early tomorrow." Leaving Ji Shuangshuang with an encouraging look, Lin Yi turned around, pushed open the office door, and walked into the office.

…………

After tearing off the calendar of December 24, Lin Yi, who had just woken up, gave a sinister smile.

After getting the order from Khalid, the factory was temporarily out of crisis. Now he finally had time to go to Miles Company to ask for his share of the money.

According to his original plan, he planned to wait until January to go.

At that time, people all over the country were busy and exhausted.

If I went there to ask for money at that time, I could get into big trouble if I made the slightest noise.

Those who don't want to get into trouble will try every possible way to clean up their mess.

But the problem is, people have already set up the stage for the show, and I always feel it’s not good if I don’t go to support it.

In addition, the entire Liu family is busy fighting for power and profit.

If I don't go now, if that crappy company goes bankrupt, I will suffer a huge loss.

Rubbing his face vigorously, Lin Yi walked out of the office with his change of clothes and went into Rest Room No. 1.

Ten minutes later, a handsome and domineering president who walked with a breeze pushed the door open and walked out.

After greeting Ji Shuangshuang who had just woken up, Lin Yi returned to the office and took out a box from under the desk.

The box was opened, revealing bottles with chemical labels on them.

Potassium chloride

【Ammonium sulfate】

Ammonium nitrate

Potassium sulfate

Potassium nitrate

【High concentration water and fertilizer】

Looking at these bottles, Lin Yi rubbed his hands excitedly, took out all the bottles, and poured them all into the kettle on the desk.

The four-liter kettle was directly occupied by the fertilizer. After pouring the fertilizer, he added some water to the kettle, then picked up a pencil from his desk and stirred it vigorously.

After stirring for a long time, all the fertilizer in the kettle melted into the water, leaving no trace.

At this point, Lin Yi nodded with great satisfaction, put the kettle on the base and started heating it.

The electric kettle boils water very quickly. In less than three minutes, the sound of hot water boiling could be heard in the kettle.

With a ding, the water boiled.

Lin Yi opened the lid and took a look inside the electric kettle. The fertilizer residue that was left just now was completely dissolved in the water under the action of high temperature.

not bad.

Then, he pulled a two-liter thermos from under the desk, thought for a moment, picked up the tea box from the desk, took out half a handful of tea leaves and threw them into the thermos.

Shake it and then pour all the hot water in the electric kettle into the thermos.

The hot water that dissolved the fertilizer collided with the tea leaves at this moment, emitting an unpleasant smell. Lin Yi, who was playing tricks, was the first to be hit, and he saw stars and felt dizzy.

At this time, the office door was pushed open, and Ji Shuangshuang, who had changed into a light gray women's suit and put on some light makeup, looked very capable and walked in.

As soon as I walked in the door, I smelled that unpleasant smell.

Then some not-so-long-ago but unforgettable memories emerged in my mind.

The little girl frowned slightly, quietly took a half step back, moved to the door, took a breath of fresh air outside, then looked at Lin Yi and the pile of bottles and jars in front of him.

Seeing that it was some fertilizer, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked:
"Boss, are you planning to plant some flowers and plants yourself after you return from the Magic City?"

“It won’t survive in this season.”

"No!" Lin Yi screwed the lid of the thermos, held the thermos in his hand, grabbed the documents on the desk, and walked quickly towards Ji Shuangshuang.

As he passed the girl, a cunning smile appeared on his face:

"There's an eight-braided fortune tree in the lobby of Miles Company. I wonder where that old man Liu Qiming got it from."

"I decided to help him fertilize!"

Lin Yi emphasized the word "fertilize" and a fox-like smile appeared on his face.

As he spoke, Ji Shuangshuang's eyes fell subtly on the thermos cup in her boss's hand.

He swallowed his saliva quietly, and asked in a low voice with worry in his tone:
"That boss... there's surveillance in the lobby, and people are coming and going. It's going to be difficult, right?"

"So I added tea leaves!" Lin Yi raised his hand proudly and showed Ji Shuangshuang the thermos cup in his hand.

After the presentation, he suddenly seemed to remember something and asked:

"Where's the Buddha statue I asked you to make?"

As soon as these words were spoken, a trace of embarrassment appeared on Ji Shuangshuang's fair cheeks, and her ears quickly turned red. Then she lowered her head and rummaged through the handbag in her hand, and found a "Buddha statue" that was not much bigger than an adult's thumb.

Spreading the Buddha statue in her hands, she turned her head and muttered softly:

"Boss, you can let someone else go next time. I don't want to be called childish."

"How childish is this?" Lin Yi grabbed the "Buddha statue" and played with it in his hands.

The more he played with it, the more he couldn't hide the smile on his face.

Because this is not a Buddha statue at all.

But it was an Ultraman sitting cross-legged.

This Ultraman has three faces on his head, namely the first generation, Jack, and Zoffy.

After playing with the Buddha statue for a while, Lin Yi slapped his forehead, turned around and walked back to the office, found a bottle of alcohol in the drawer, took out two paper towels, filled the paper towels with alcohol, and then wiped the Buddha statue bit by bit with the paper towels.

After wiping it clean, he wrapped the Buddha statue with a paper towel soaked in alcohol.

After leaving the office and locking the door, Ji Shuangshuang didn't ask her many questions until she got into the Santana:
"Boss, what are you doing with this Ultraman?"

When asked about his purpose, Lin Yi took out the small Buddha statue again, played with it in his hands for a while, and with a sly smile on his face, he replied sinisterly:

"Liu Qiming's statue of the God of Wealth is a large, seated Buddha holding a smaller one."

"I'll go over there today and find a chance to replace his little Buddha statue while there are many people around."

Co-pilot, after getting Lin Yi's answer, Ji Shuangshuang's face stiffened for a moment, and finally she sighed resignedly, pulled the seat belt and buckled it with an expressionless face.

While fastening her seat belt, she quietly turned her head to look at Lin Yi.

He is tall and has long legs, and he is handsome, especially in the black suit he is wearing today, which makes him look even more handsome.

Moreover, he is a big boss, a young and promising boss.

Wherever he goes, he is a favored child of heaven and a celebrity.

But how could such a person have such a unique way of thinking?
Forget it.

Accept your fate.

For the sake of the salary, it's okay to have unconventional ideas.

Ji Shuangshuang sighed again, closed her eyes, and fell asleep leaning against the chair.

When I woke up again, the car had arrived in Shanghai and stopped at the entrance of Miles Company.

As soon as she opened her eyes, Ji Shuangshuang saw the banners at the entrance of Miles Company. The red banners were all filled with slogans asking for money.

The people holding these banners were all big and strong, and some of them had arms that were thicker than their heads.

At this moment, she was very doubtful whether she and Lin Yi could get the money by themselves.

While she was still daydreaming, Lin Yi had already gotten out of the car.

The arrival of the shabby Santana also attracted the attention of a group of people at the door.

As soon as Lin Yi got out of the car, a young man with bare arms, a dragon tattoo on the left and a tiger on the right, and colorful hair came over in the middle of winter. He raised his hand and held up a cigarette.

"Brother, are you here to ask for money too?"

"Yes! Thank you, I don't smoke." Lin Yi raised his hands, politely declined the cigarette, and then tilted his chin towards the door:
"Brother, can you tell me what's going on inside?"

As he spoke, he pulled out a pack of cigarettes from his suit pocket and handed it over.

Huazi, which costs 50 yuan a box, is hard currency.

The young man took the cigarette and pointed at the door:
"I heard the boss of this company is about to die, and his relatives are fighting for power and want to change suppliers."

"Many suppliers outside came to ask for money, and we were also hired by other suppliers."

"If you want money, you have to go up there quickly. If those suppliers kill the boss here, it will be too late to catch up."

"Thank you for the reminder!" Lin Yi bowed to the young man, then asked Ji Shuangshuang to get out of the car, locked the door, and ran into the hall quickly with the thermos cup.

The receptionist saw Lin Yi running in, opened her mouth, but eventually swallowed her words and handed over the registration book in front of her:
"Please register, thank you."

Lin Yi casually handed the registration book to Ji Shuangshuang. When he and Ji Shuangshuang crossed each other's paths, he lowered his voice and said:
"Get her attention!"

After saying that, he picked up his thermos, unscrewed the lid, pretended to drink water, but actually looked at the camera.

After looking around, I found that the cameras in the hall were all staring at the front desk, the gate, and the elevator, but not at the most important money tree and the God of Wealth.

After realizing this, Lin Yi didn't know whether to say Liu Qiming was stupid or superstitious.

After confirming again and again that the money tree and the statue of the God of Wealth were blind spots, Lin Yi continued to pretend to drink water, and then walked step by step towards the money tree and the statue of the God of Wealth.
