Blackstone Code Chapter 4: When you don’t firmly oppose the first time, you have lost your persistence


After leaving Mr. Fox's side, Lynch walked around the street. After negotiating the deal, he would soon have his first income, and the amount of this income is directly related to how much he invested. relation.

The more he invests, the higher the profit. In fact, even the top consortium will be very envious of this kind of business.

During this period of time, he has been reading newspapers. Even though the whole world is engaged in development and construction, no matter how the financial economy is improved, the annual rate of return promised by some funds does not exceed 15%.

In the first quarter of this year, the "Transaction News" disclosed some detailed data from last year. The one-year rate of return of the foundation with the highest actual rate of return was only 9.74, less than 10%. It has become the most profitable fund in the past year.

So this transaction is very important, but at the same time there is a new problem, he needs to have a "principal" in exchange for those change and coins.

Mr. Fox didn't talk about the money. Based on his investigation of Lynch's background, it is impossible not to know that Lynch doesn't even have a hundred dollars in his body and bank account, let alone his promise to help Mr. Fox as soon as possible. Complete the "transformation" scale.

He has to get another sum of money, not too much, a few hundred yuan or a thousand or two is enough, because once this turns up, the speed will only get faster and faster, a small sum of money, he plans to go back to the evening when he returns. Catherine to talk.

Although he felt that it was true that he did this..., but for the sake of the future, this was also something that could not be done.

Time is passing bit by bit while wandering. Today's Lynch returned home early. At half past six in the evening, Katherine came back from outside with a bag.

Inside are the minced meat scraps and some vegetables that don't look fresh today that the supermarket where she works will be discarded. These things will basically be divided up by the employees. After all, the purpose of everyone accepting oppression and exploitation here is to get these for free. thing.

As soon as she returned to the apartment, Katherine was a little surprised. During this time, Lynch always came very late. It was the first time for him to come back early like today.

In the beginning, she also fantasized about Lynch being able to honestly find a job, preferably in a factory.

Although the work in the factory is very hard and dangerous, it has to be said that the workers' welfare and social security are the best.

Not only do big business owners have to take care of them, they can join organizations like unions, and Catherine, who works in the supermarket, can't because she's not a worker.

Also, there is no such unofficial organization as the "Cashier's Guild".

Night dreams are always immersed in them, but good dreams are easy to wake up.

For a week in a row, Lynch, who seemed to have just revived, 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 a job to go out to spend time.

Thinking of this, Katherine became disheartened. She felt that her past choices were not only stupid and simple, but her eyes were also blind.

It was because of these things that she realized how true her mother's words were - good looks don't help, life needs foundation, not good looks.

She looked up at Lynch, then changed her shoes and carried the bag into the kitchen, where she started cleaning the crumbs.

These crumbs are picked off the bone racks, the shapeless kind, most of them are the size of fingers, and for some reason, they look better than those neatly stacked beef. The color is darker.

Therefore, even if their price is very low, it is difficult to sell them, and most people buy them not for their own food, but to feed their dogs.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with the minced meat.

The silent atmosphere in the room is filled with something uncomfortable, which is constantly spreading and surging.

Lynch sat on a sofa that they had picked up from the **** heap and looked at his girlfriend who was silently handling the food. Although the distance between the two was less than ten meters, it seemed like she appeared from the middle. an abyss.

"Do you... have any extra money?" Lynch asked.

The movements in Catherine's hands paused slightly. She didn't look back, didn't say anything, and continued to work on her work after a brief pause, "There are some, less than 500 yuan, which I saved this year. "

Saving money is not easy, especially for these young people with only a high school degree.

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 a hint of heaviness in the atmosphere, pressing on the chests of the two.

Neither of them spoke again until Catherine made dinner.

The usual crumbs with fried eggs, some tattered vegetable leaves, and some lasagna broken into a centimeter or two.

These are the things that supermarkets need to throw away every day, and now they feed many poor families.

"My mother came to see me today..." Catherine broke the 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 looked at the plate in front of the girl with some fresh "seasonings" added. It was transparent, somewhat bitter, and slightly salty.

In fact, Catherine has made it very clear that she can't convince her mother, so one of them must be persuaded by the other, only she may be persuaded.

The things on the plate that were not very delicious became even more palatable, Lynch sighed, "When are you going?"

Katherine almost broke down. "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 cheek wet with tears~IndoMTL.com~ He needs to pay for what his body did before .

For more than two years, the two young people have put all the burdens of life on this twenty-year-old girl.

There is no doubt that Lynch is a scumbag, the kind of scumbag.

This kind of life gradually wears away all the girl's fantasies about romance and the future. She has experienced these and begins to bow to reality and fate, even if she may still retain a trace of fantasies in the deepest part of her heart.

For example...

There is no example, Lynch would not ask the girl to stay, whether she said she wanted to leave first, or she was not sure in the future, but a life full of unease and danger was definitely not suitable for this girl.

Although it is cruel to say that, the truth is the truth.

After an unforgettable night for the two of them, Katherine left early the next morning with her belongings, but also for Lynch.

A passbook, and the keys to the apartment.

Thanks to the banks who don't care much about who gets the money in the passbook, this may also be a testament to Katherine saying goodbye to her past life.

After repacking, Lynch took out all the money in the passbook in the morning, four hundred and forty-nine yuan and thirty-five cents.

Then he found the landlord, and after chatting with the landlord for about half an hour, he refunded 100 yuan for the house with half a month left - it was originally 75 yuan, but Lynch's stuff No more.

The landlord felt that the deal could not be considered too disadvantageous, so he finally agreed and gave an extra 25 yuan.

The change is reserved for the first few days of life, and the rest will be rolled into his plan. He can't wait, and he is eager to teach this simple world a lesson.
