In fact, Manager Li was very determined to make things difficult for Yi Ming just now, because he knew that once he did so, he was gambling, and the bet was his own future and destiny. If he lost the bet, it turned out that Yi Ming was really a rich man. , then he will be beyond redemption.
At that time, not only will he no longer be trusted by Shopkeeper Lu, but he will also lose his job immediately. From now on, no one in this industry will dare to use him.
The reason why he used such cruel tactics was out of helplessness, because he had already seen through it. Yi Ming was very good at talking, and if he just tried to reason with him, the people on his side might not be able to talk to him at all, so In order to gain the upper hand as soon as possible and reverse the defeat, he had no choice but to make this move.
Otherwise, once the matter drags on, there will definitely be long nights and many dreams. Once Shopkeeper Lu becomes unfirm and begins to doubt the words of his subordinates, even if the matter can be resolved satisfactorily in the end, it is still unknown whether Shopkeeper Lu will rely on them in the future.
"Little brother, weren't you quite confident just now? Why aren't you talking now?" Manager Li saw that Yi Ming was still reluctant to speak, so he quickly pursued the victory and wanted to reveal his true colors at once.
The burly men on the side also started to boo, and they spoke one after another, mocking Zhou Ming:
"Little brother, don't save face for us. Just prove to us how capable you are."
"That's right, don't just talk, that's not your skill."
"Take out the money, show it to us all, and shut our mouths."
Shopkeeper Lu, who is the boss of the bank, should have stepped forward to stop him when he saw this scene, because this group of people under his command would be extremely disrespectful to customers by making things difficult for them. If this kind of thing spreads, it will have an impact on the bank. It will be very big.
But today's shopkeeper Lu was uncharacteristically uncharacteristic. Not only did he not stand up and reprimand the bastards under his command, but he also stood aside and stared at Yi Ming. He really couldn't figure out what this young man was thinking about what he just said. He is obviously like a kid from a rich family, but why does he have nothing to say when faced with the doubts of his subordinates? Could it be that he is really an ignorant and ignorant person who comes to the bank to find trouble?
After thinking of this possibility, Shopkeeper Lu couldn't help but feel a little upset. After all, just now, he thought Yi Ming was a talent and wanted to take him under his control and use him for his own purposes.
Faced with the aggressive momentum of everyone in front of him, Zhou Yiming was really angry for a moment. He even wanted to mobilize his energy and beat these bully bastards into cripples one by one, so as to eliminate the hatred in his heart.
However, this idea only existed in his mind for a short time, because his reason told him that once he did this, not only would his previous contributions to the court be wiped out, but also the old thieves in the court would strictly demand He will also take this opportunity to eradicate himself in one fell swoop.
Although his death was self-inflicted and there was nothing to complain about, Yan Qiu's hatred for him would not disappear just because he died. He would definitely eradicate it and attack his family members.
When the time comes, your parents will be miserable. They have to give away a gray-haired person to a black-haired person at an old age. This kind of thing is already a big psychological blow, but in the end, they may be killed by their enemies. Kill absolutely.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yiming felt heartbroken. Besides his parents, there was one person he couldn't let go of, and that person was his wife, Lin Gillian.
Since the two of them got married, they have been extremely affectionate and respectful to each other. It can be said that they have never blushed. If she gets burned because of such a trivial matter in front of her, and is finally eradicated by the old thief Yan Qiu, what will she do?
You must know that the lady is in her prime, as young as a flower. Based on her character, after her death, no matter how her family persuades her, she will definitely not remarry, and a strong woman like her will definitely find ways to take care of herself. revenge.
But the lady is weak after all. How can a weak woman stand up to the most powerful traitor in the dynasty?
In the end, despite all the hard work, not only was the lady unable to get revenge, but she even lost her life.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yiming couldn't help feeling sad. He felt an indescribable discomfort in his heart. He thought, isn't it so unlucky? Even if I encounter Waterloo here today, it won't cause such big consequences, right?
Manager Li and the group of strong men under him naturally didn't know what Zhou Ming was thinking. They just saw that the expression on his face kept changing, and became more and more ugly. Therefore, they concluded that this boy must be Thinking of a way to escape.
In order for Zhou Ming to receive the punishment he deserved, these strong men all walked behind the door and stood in a row to block Zhou Ming's escape route.
Zhou Yiming noticed the actions of the strong men, and he thought in his mind, should he knock them to the ground while they were not on a stable footing, and then run away?
Although it is very embarrassing to do this, they do not know their identity after all. Even if they see themselves in other places in the future, they will probably forget about it.
Just when Yi Ming was about to fight to the death, his eyes lit up and he smiled. Then he reached out and patted his arms. When he found that the thing was still there, he immediately raised his head, stared at Manager Li and asked, "How can you prove this?" ?”
The group of burly men standing behind the door had already concluded that Zhou Ming must be a poor man. They had even begun to think in their minds about how to deal with Zhou Ming after his identity was completely revealed.
But what they didn't expect was that after a moment of silence, Zhou Yiming raised his head arrogantly and asked Manager Li a pointed question.
They all knew in their hearts that the reason why Yi Ming dared to ask such a question must be confident. Maybe their family was really a rich man, or else they were the family of officials who had been serving as ministers for many generations.
After thinking of these two possibilities, the group of people were immediately frightened and didn't know what to do. They subconsciously turned their attention to Manager Li, hoping that at this critical moment, he could come up with a perfect plan to save the day. Respond to the crisis at hand.
Those who were surprised by Zhou Ming's rhetorical question were not only the burly men, but also Shopkeeper Lu.
He originally thought that Yi Ming would be silent for a while, then take the initiative to confess his life experience and mistakes, and then ask for his forgiveness, but Yi Ming's final actions were far beyond his expectations.
Shopkeeper Lu stared at Zhou Yiming with very intriguing eyes, thinking that this young man is really strange. The fear he showed just now almost made me think that he was really a bad person.
Although there were many thoughts in his heart, Shopkeeper Lu did not express them because he knew very well that it was not the time for him to speak out yet. He wanted to see how the showdown between Yi Ming and his men would end. Who will win, and which side will win the final victory?
In fact, this kind of sitting back and watching the success or failure is very clever, because no position is expressed before the result comes out, so no matter who wins in the end, shopkeeper Lu can stand up and say to the winning party easily, I knew you were the winner. That's right, I just didn't say it out loud.
In this way, not only will he not offend the winning party, but he will easily win the favor of the winning party, and then they can stand together talking and laughing to blame the losing party.
Such a transaction would not be a loss no matter what. Only a smart businessman would come up with such a clever trick.
Faced with Yi Ming's rhetorical question, Manager Li was a little timid at first, because he also felt that if Yi Ming had the courage to say this, he must have the strength.
After a brief period of fear, he immediately regained his composure. Seeing that Shopkeeper Lu had no intention of standing up to take charge of the overall situation, he suddenly felt confident. He had followed Shopkeeper Lu for many years and knew his scheming character. If he did not step forward at this time, I definitely want to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.
Manager Li glanced at Yi Ming. He knew in his heart that when things got to this point, he had no way out. Even though he knew that Yi Ming was a rich and powerful man, he still had to bet with him to the end.
"So brave." Manager Li raised his voice, praised Zhou Ming, and then continued, "Since you asked this, little brother, let me tell you how to prove it.
In the early years, there were too many people like you who came to our bank to seek trouble, so in order to distinguish the true identities of these people, the old gentleman in our bank came up with two ways to prove their identity.
The first and most commonly used method is to ask an unidentified guest to reveal his identity, and then based on the clues he gives, we will send someone to the door to check. If the information is correct, we can prove the guest's identity. The identity is real.
This method is the simplest and most trouble-free, and it doesn't hurt either of us. Our bank has always used this method whenever we encountered difficult customers. "
After listening to Manager Li's words, the group of burly men were all filled with admiration. They all felt that this method was so brilliant. Even if they encountered the most savvy liar, as long as they used this trick on him, they would immediately reveal their true colors. Exposed.
Shopkeeper Lu had no worries at this time, because his intuition told him that Yi Ming would definitely not accept this method of verifying his identity.
After Manager Li finished explaining this verification method, he wanted to explain the details of using this method clearly, but before he could speak, Yi Ming interrupted him and snatched the words away.
"Manager Li, right? I won't accept the first method. Just tell me the second method!" Zhou Ming said with a smile on his face, confidently, as if he didn't take into account the doubts of the people in front of him. Treat it as the same thing.
The big guys behind the door were all happy after seeing this scene, because they all believed that the reason why Yi Ming did not dare to accept this verification method was because he had something evil in his heart. He was afraid that if he used this method, he would be wrong. Immediately reveal his identity as a pauper.
