Change Human Trilogy

Chapter 23 Bite the bullet and borrow money

Jiang Chengyue threw Zhong Yu's advertising copy on the table, and said proudly: It's too low-level, do you think this is a club that ordinary people can enter?

Zhong Yu was afraid that he would find fault like this, so he said politely: Then give me a direction, and I will do it according to your thinking.

Jiang Chengyue smiled proudly: Let me tell you everything, so what do you do with money?

Zhong Yu came out of his office, a little melancholy, what he was worried about really happened.This time, Jiang Chengyue took the opportunity to make things difficult under the guise of designing.This was already the third plan they had made, and each time Jiang Chengyue would veto it after barely seeing it for 2 minutes.

The most fearful thing about being creative is repeated rework, every idea is rejected, and the morale of the whole team has changed from excitement at the beginning to low.

Zhong Yu thought about it, except that he took the initiative to disturb him at the charity party and was not very happy, he really didn't do anything else to provoke him.To say that there is no big festival between the two of them.The only indirect connection is Miss Dong. Could it be that there is really a special relationship between the two of them.

Zhong Yu lay down on the table depressed.

At this time, the piece of jade suddenly appeared in his mind, and he hadn't paid attention to it for a few days, and he almost put it behind him. It was the key to his transformation back into a human being. It is the closing time of the exhibition hall.

Zhong Yu rushed over to take a look at the last minute before closing.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, the booth where Yu was originally located is empty.

I rely on!Zhong Yu only felt a chill in his heart.

For a moment, I almost felt that the world was spinning, and such a bloody thing really happened.

Zhong Yuxin almost fell into the cliff all at once.Looked around for other stands hoping to find it somewhere else.

A young man in uniform came up and asked: What's the matter with you, sir?

Zhong Yu grabbed him and asked urgently: Where is that piece of jade?It turned out to be at this location!

The young man was taken aback by him.

Asked: Is it that milky white oval ancient jade?

Zhong Yu asked: Where is it?

The young man pointed awkwardly at the display board at the door, and said: That piece of jade has been taken back and will be auctioned at the end of the month.

Only then did Zhong Yu notice the display board at the door.It said that several things in this exhibition hall will participate in the auction held in this city.

The young security escorted him out politely.

He was still thinking about ways to snatch and steal that piece of jade before, although he just thought about it and dared not take action.But when necessary, he will take extraordinary measures.

Now that I heard that the jade will be auctioned, I am both surprised and happy.

So if you have the money you can get it.

The auction was at the end of this month. He purposely learned about the details of the auction. The main item of this auction was a jade seal suspected to be a jade seal that Li Zicheng broke through and proclaimed himself king in the late Ming Dynasty.A gold silk dress that is said to have been worn by Chen Yuanyuan.

Because this piece of jade was also dug out from the tomb of a high official in the Ming Dynasty, it was also included in the auction. The starting price of the first two pieces was 2 yuan, and the starting price of this piece of jade was 8 yuan. . .

The brick maker euphemistically said: This piece of jade lacks beauty and has no special historical significance, and it will play a role in making up for it in this auction.

Zhong Yu knew that what he needed to get this piece of jade was not wisdom, but money.

Looking at the balance of less than 2 yuan in his bank card, Zhong Yu left the ATM silently.

Naturally, Cambridge had no money, but he came up with an idea, which was to wait for an opportunity to snatch it from the buyer when the auction was over.Zhong Yu took this idea as a last resort, and went to Jianguo.

The local tyrant of Jianguo waved his hand and said: Brother, if you have a problem, just tell me, brother, here is 3 yuan, and you can use it freely.

This money is just a starting price, Zhong Yu didn't take this drop in the bucket

He called the brick house and the sponsor's consultants. According to their experience, the transaction price of the jade would not exceed 30 at most.

30 has become a big problem for Zhongyu in the near future.

With the headache of 30 yuan, Zhongyu's advertising copy was rejected again.He looked at Jiang Chengyue's haughty expression of snorting, for a nobleman like him, 30w is just a few entertainments, this is the gap.Ordinary people have to work hard for at least half of their lives if they want to earn this figure.

A bold idea popped into my mind.

If Jiang Chengyue is kidnapped, based on his identity, there must be a large amount of ransom!

Zhong Yu was just thinking about it in a self-deprecating way.Also as a vampire, Jiang Chengyue is not a fuel-efficient lamp, and the unknown dark forces behind him can crush him to death in minutes.

After thinking about it, Zhong Yu found that the most suitable person he could find for borrowing money was Ms. Dong.

After hesitating for a long time, Zhong Yu called Miss Dong.

The contact information Ms. Dong left for him when he was creating the mural before.He never fought.I thought I would never use it in my life.

Some time ago, when Manager Hao urged him to contact Ms. Dong, he only contacted her briefly in the name of the company.Unexpectedly, this number was dialed today. .

He felt that he had to apologize first about the magazine.

When Miss Dong received the call, her tone was calm.Doesn't seem to be bothered by magazines.Zhong Yu hesitated to mention the magazine, and said in an intrusive tone: Miss Dong, I have something to ask you for a favor.

There was a slight silence on the phone for a few seconds.

Zhong Yu had a bad idea, he was too direct.After all, the two are not familiar with each other.

OK, you come to my house.

Hearing this sentence, Zhong Yu didn't react immediately, and said hello in a daze.

He wanted to say, if he went to her house alone, what if he was scribbled by a magazine again?

Finally, he swallowed the sentence.At this moment, you can borrow money first, and the rest can only be put behind your mind.

You must be very solemn when you go to her house in a while, and you must not do anything that is misleading.Zhong Yu thought.

He wandered around for a while and bought some fruit.I also sorted out my clothes and felt that I was ready.Ready to stop the car and go.

In the declining world, when it comes to borrowing money, most people will avoid it. Although this money is nothing to Ms. Dong, it is not related to them after all.This is the first time he has asked for help from others, and he feels uneasy.

The phone in his hand rang; a rough voice asked him: Mr. Zhong, where are you now?

Zhong Yu said that he was at the gate of a certain shopping mall, and asked him: Who are you?

The rough voice made him wait for a few minutes in front of the mall.

Zhong Yu hung up the phone, confused.

Soon, a car stopped beside Zhong Yu, and the tough-looking driver asked, "Mr. Zhong?"Get in the car.

Zhong Yu stared blankly at the driver.Not yet out of the mist,

The driver smiled and said: Miss Dong sent me to pick you up.

got in the car.Zhong Yu knew through the driver that after he called Miss Dong, her secretary immediately contacted the nearby staff to pick him up.After hearing this, Zhong Yu couldn't help but blushed.How embarrassing it would be to let them know that I was going to borrow money. . .

The driver looked ferocious, and he really didn't look like a kind-hearted commoner, but he was polite to him. Although he didn't say it clearly, he looked at Zhong Yu in a strange way.

He said: Ms. Dong never sends a car to pick up people.

Zhong Yu blushed and nodded, feeling embarrassed.

After about half an hour, the car arrived in front of Ms. Dong's villa, the place where she was sent home last time.

The house looks different at night than it does during the day.Although the bricks and tiles used are all good things, I don't know if the designer did it on purpose. This villa is very plain, as if afraid of catching the attention of others.Quietly hidden in the middle of a landscape.

The door was opened, and several people in uniform came out to invite Zhong Yu in.

A sense of a wealthy family that can only be seen in TV dramas rushed over, Zhong Yu couldn't help being a little nervous when he came to this kind of place for the first time.

Compared with the simplicity of the outside, the interior design appears to be richer in color.It's just that the overall style is still plain.

On the contrary, this shows that Ms. Dong's family is not a nouveau riche who got rich quickly.It is a cultivated family that has really experienced wealth accumulation.

You sit down first.A servant said,

Zhong Yu nodded.Reach out and offer your own fruit.

At this moment, even his fruit looks cheap.I hope these fruits will not be dismissed after he leaves.

The living room was empty, and Miss Dong was not seen.

Zhong Yu sat on the sofa upright, looking around unnaturally.

There is a book on the corner of the table not far from him, Zhong Yu carefully picked it up and read <The Power of Family Love>

This book is the latest work of the French master of emotion, Rollievo.Some time ago, it was popular in various bookstores, setting off a wave of reflection on family affection.

Zhong Yu was surprised that a wealthy woman whose parents had both passed away actually read this book.

He flipped through a few pages inadvertently, and the blank space inside was filled with thoughts and notes.

Zhong Yu was so frightened that he put the book back in its original place, which should not be regarded as an invasion of privacy.he thought, sweating.

Being nervous, Miss Dong came down from upstairs.Seeing Zhong Yu sitting there obediently, he couldn't help but smile.

Zhong Yu stood up politely.Say hello politely.

Long time no see, Miss Dong.

How is my house decorated?

she asked with a smile.It seemed to ease his tension.

Pretty good, isn't it?

Zhong Yu replied that Ms. Dong always greets people in an eclectic way.

Miss Dong was sitting on the sofa diagonally across from him, she also saw the book she put on the table, and put it away.

Miss Dong likes to read this kind of book?Now girls mostly look at romance.

Zhong Yu had nothing to say.Then I thought to myself, most of the girls who read romance are girls who love to dream, and Ms. Dong should have nothing to dream about.

Ms. Dong glanced at the book again and said: There is too much to learn.

Zhong Yu was afraid that he might say something wrong, so he nodded sincerely.

Miss Dong smiled and said nothing.

The atmosphere was a little awkward,

Actually...I want to...borrow money.

Zhong Yu said embarrassedly.

How much to borrow?

Miss Dong asked him straightforwardly.

About 30.Zhong Yu stretched out his hand and gestured.

Ms. Dong looked at him calmly: You are not a person who likes to spend money, can you tell me what to borrow money for?

Zhong Yu originally wanted to find a reason to perfunctory, but seeing that Ms. Dong was so straightforward, she was too embarrassed to hide it, so she told her that she wanted to shoot jade.

Miss Dong nodded slightly after listening.He didn't ask him why he wanted that piece of jade.Just ask someone to pick up the check.

Zhong Yu looked at her hand writing the check, 30 was like a piece of paper in their hands.Just about to lament the disparity between the rich and the poor today, Ms. Dong suddenly stopped in the middle, and said with a little thought: "Well, I will go with you on the day of the auction. It is still unknown whether the 30 will be able to come down."I am more familiar with auctions than you, so it will be more convenient for me to help you take pictures.

No matter how you listen to this proposal, it is very reasonable.Zhong Yu glanced at the half-written check and nodded.

He was very grateful that Miss Dong could help him so readily.

By the way, you can read the Classic of Mountains and Seas mentioned last time.

Miss Dong said.

Zhong Yu thanked him again and again.

Miss Dong always looked at him politely.Said softly: I think we are friends, you don't have to be so polite.

Zhong Yu nodded.I thought: I will be the creditor in the future, and it is difficult to be polite. . . .

At this time, the sound of a classical clock came to mind in the room, boom. . .Boom. . .

It was the chime of an old clock that hadn't been heard for a long time.It turns out that Miss Dong's house still has such an ancient thing.Zhong Yu suddenly felt nostalgic.Looking at the watch, it was already time for dinner, I didn't pay attention when I set off, and now it's just in time for dinner.Zhong Yu was sweating in his heart.Scold yourself for being ignorant.

He didn't intend to stay for dinner, and he planned to go back quickly.There are many rules in a wealthy family, so I will definitely be ashamed.

I still have business in my company, so I won't bother you today.

Zhong Yu stood up after speaking.

Seeing that he was about to leave, Ms. Dong tried to persuade him to stay: "Dinner is about to start, and I have already made your portion."

Zhong Yu didn't expect to have his own share of the meal.I have to say: I'm really sorry, there are still some work issues that have not been resolved.

Ms. Dong couldn't help asking: Is your company often so busy?

Zhong Yu smiled: There is no way, the nature of work is like this.

I thought to myself, the one that is bothering me now is Jiang Chengyue's ad.

Ms. Dong and Jiang Chengyue are senior executives of the same company, so I don't know how much Ms. Dong knows about the ad creative she is doing now.

At this moment, the hall door opened, and a tall figure pushed the door and walked in, saying in a customary tone: ... I'm back.

Zhong Yu turned around, followed the person who entered the door and looked at each other, both of them froze in astonishment at the same time.

It's Jiang Chengyue.

It really shouldn't be said that people are bad.Jiang Chengyue suddenly appeared at this moment.

Jiang Chengyue looked at Zhong Yu sitting on the sofa, her eyes were full of disbelief.

Zhong Yu also had an embarrassed expression, and wanted to stand up to say hello, but didn't know what to say.Looking at this situation, are the two living together?Zhong Yu instantly sweated on his forehead.

Miss Dong ignored the delicate atmosphere between the two, and said to Jiang Chengyue lightly: I'm back.

Zhong Yu's mind was in a mess for a moment. Not long ago, Ms. Dong said with certainty that she had no "special" relationship with Jiang Chengyue.Miss Dong is a human, and Jiang Chengyue is a vampire, and now he has no idea what's going on.

Jiang Chengyue looked at Zhong Yu's expression slightly relaxed, took off his tie and handed it to the servant beside him, and naturally sat beside Zhong Yu: Hello, Mr. Zhong...

Zhong Yu smiled: Mr. Jiang, hello.

Both were disgusted by the other's hypocrisy.
