In a high-end restaurant called Baiyunshan on the west side of Commercial Port Road, Qin Tian, who was sitting in a luxurious private room, was exchanging glasses with Xiao Li very boldly.
The heavy drinking for more than half an hour made Xiao Li, a native of Changchun, a little unbearable.
Qin Tian, who risked his life to accompany the gentleman, was brave enough to accept everyone who came. He fought with Xiao Li over bowl after bowl. After eating more than ten bowls, the two of them waved their hands almost at the same time to signal a truce.
Xiao Li didn't expect Qin Tian's drinking capacity to be as good as him, and to be able to stay awake enough after drinking so much.
The two sides stopped fighting at the same time. They looked at each other in tacit understanding, and each burst out with hearty laughter from their hearts.
"A thousand cups of wine is too little for a close friend. I can't drink it anymore, so let's eat vegetables."
Xiao Li burped, and in a daze, he used his chopsticks for a long time without picking up a single peanut. When he was annoyed, he threw away his chopsticks and went to grab it.
Qin Tian also picked up a piece of pig head meat several times and stuffed it into his mouth. He chewed it several times and swallowed it. The turbulence and burning sensation in his stomach eased a little.
"Brother Qin, you said you can make double the income in the black market in a month?" Xiao Li, who was chewing peanuts, finally got to the point.
After eating half a bowl of pork stewed vermicelli, Qin Tian put down the bowl and wiped his mouth: "My current capital is too small, the transaction volume is not large, and the water money is actually not large, it depends on the size of the water. If I have enough capital, a You can really make a lot of money every month.”
"After chatting with you so much in the interrogation room, I feel that you are extremely good in both theoretical and practical skills. How about we cooperate?" Xiao Li asked tentatively.
"Cooperation? Are you kidding me? You are a high-ranking deputy director. Do you think you can take advantage of this?"
"Hey, didn't you just say that if the principal is enough, you can earn more? Can't we just start running the business?"
Qin Tian shook his head and said a little surprised: "No, I just said it casually, do you really take it seriously?"
Xiao Li pointed Qin Tian with his finger and said with a smile: "You are playing tricks on me, are you? Believe it or not, I will lock you in again immediately. I can just make some changes to the file. Tell me, how many years do you want to stay?" "
Qin Tian knew that Xiao Li was joking, and quickly made a look of panic, waving his hands and saying: "Don't, don't, don't, just listen to big brother. It's just that I really want to make a lot of money. It's pointless to do other things, and the risk is high. I can only be the banker by myself." This is a sure-fire business."
"Being the banker yourself? That would require a lot of funds."
Qin Tian nodded: "This threshold is a bit high, but if you reach this threshold, you can turn it into a sickle, and those below will be leeks, and you can cut them at any time."
"I understand the truth, but I'm afraid it's not that easy to run this village, right?"
"In fact, it's not difficult. As long as Brother Xiao is willing to stand up for me and can prepare a part of the start-up capital, I can let him continue to operate this capital disk. It's just that the money exchange business is explicitly prohibited. We are the banker, so the risk is not Generally speaking, this risk I refer to is political risk."
Seeing Qin Tian tapping his fingers on the table solemnly, Xiao Li pondered for a while and then said: "If I can provide you with backstage protection, can you play with this plate?"
"Of course, I still have this confidence." Qin Tian took a sip of wine and said confidently.
Xiao Li lit a cigarette and puffed away the smoke while stroking the beard on his chin, seemingly thinking about something.
After a long time, when the cigarette in Xiao Li's hand burned out, he whispered: "Director Yuan will be promoted to the police department after the year. I have two choices, either go to the police department with the director or stay. As a director, if I just want to have an official career, I will definitely choose the former, but in this world, once the emperor and the courtiers, it may change one day, so I think it is safe to hold enough gold bars in my hands."
"Although you have a higher rank in the office, you have less power. If you have the ability to manipulate a plate, I will stay and be the director. The county magistrate is not as good as taking charge now. At least this area in the southern part of the old city is still mine. After all, it’s much more convenient to get things done, what do you think?”
Qin Tian agreed: "If Director Xiao has such a plan, then I can let go of my courage and do it. Let's not go to the black market in the north. It is enough to open our own village in Nancheng. Although Nancheng is poor, it can't handle the large number of people. What we want is quantity, and the more water we have, the more money we will get.”
Xiao Li touched his chin for a while and said, "What should I do with the start-up capital? I don't have much I can get out, this is the most I can get."
After taking a look at the number of Xiao Li's gestures, Qin Tian smiled and said: "The power of an individual is limited, so more people must be mobilized to participate."
Xiao Li frowned slightly: "More people? Isn't this our business? It wouldn't be appropriate to add more people, right?"
Qin Tian laughed a few times and said: "The banker will definitely be Chief Xiao alone, but the capital can be invested by other people. Just the people in our police station put it together, won't the basic funds be enough?"
"This..." Xiao Li was a little confused: "Let's not say whether they are willing to invest. Even if they are willing, they may not be able to get much funding. To be honest, even though we are a police department, one year's funding is not enough for us. There is a gap in spending in many places, and the monthly income is not much. Many people are counting on this little money to support their families."
Qin Tian leaned forward slightly and said: "Don't worry, this person can't afford to be early without profit. As long as there is enough profit, no matter how cautious a person is, his heart will be moved one day. And this money is just like the water in the sea." It’s the same, no matter how much you squeeze it, it’s still a little bit.”
"That's true, but..." Xiao Li still hesitated, but after thinking about it, he endured it: "Let's do this first. I will give you ten big strips to make a book. You can hang out in the black market until the New Year. Let me see how much actual income you can achieve. If there is no problem, you can appoint a section chief at the beginning of next year to do this."
Upon hearing this, Qin Tian immediately picked up the wine bowl and said gratefully: "Thank you for your cultivation, big brother. I will live up to big brother's expectations!"
After a very enjoyable meal, they finished what they needed to drink and what they needed to talk about, so the two of them split up and went home.
After watching Qin Tian get into the rickshaw, Xiao Li got into his car.
While the rickshaw and the car were going in opposite directions, the two people sitting in different cars returned from their drunken expressions to normal.
From Xiao Li's point of view, if Qin Tian is really a talent, he will be the banker. If Qin Tian hits his head with the abacus, the gun in his hand will go off.
After this drink, Xiao Li had a relatively deep understanding of Qin Tian and left a very good impression on him. He was smart, intelligent, able to assess the situation, had something in his stomach, and was also very sincere.
But these are just appearances, a side that Qin Tian deliberately lets him see. Xiao Li always believes that if Qin Tian has so many advantages at the same time, then he must be a hidden person, and there must be more things he doesn't know. See, these are the other sides that Qin Tian doesn't want to show him for the time being.
Xiao Li thought that he could handle a smart person like Qin Tian. Even if he was the Monkey King of the Eighty-one Transformation, he would not be able to escape the grasp of his Tathagata.
And Qin Tian's evaluation of Xiao Li is not low. Compared with people like Zhang Weigong, Xiao Li is several times stronger. He has an online IQ, is scheming, understands strategies, and can win people's hearts.
Take the matter of giving him the ten gold bars as capital, for example. It was so beautiful, but in fact, it was Qin Tian who was in charge.
In fact, Xiao Li was not even willing to give out four gold bars, but given his status, he couldn't be as fussy as Zhang Weigong, making people feel unattractive.
At least so far, Xiao Li's attitude has achieved good results under Qin Tian's natural management.
For Qin Tian, surpassing Zhang Weigong and directly coming into contact with people on the edge of power was something worth celebrating.
Although he now shows an attitude of relying on Xiao Li, Qin Tian has no intention of giving up on Zhang Weigong.
On the contrary, Qin Tian is more willing to work with Zhang Weigong than Xiao Li. Only when people like Zhang Weigong come up can he really let go.
Smart people like Xiao Li will sooner or later become obstacles on his way forward, but Zhang Weigong is the real ally.
Comparing the two, there is actually no difficulty in making a choice, but Qin Tian is an adult and a spy. In his heart, he will take whatever is useful to him, no matter whether it is good or bad.
