Chapter 269: Chapter 269 Unwise in Making Friends!
"Am I that familiar with you?"
Song Yun asked with a cold laugh, looking at Wang Yiguo.
"Oh, you young people really have a temper! Don't say I didn't give you face, Secretary Liu!"
Wang Yiguo snorted coldly as he took the money from the table, having not a ounce of fondness for the young man before him.
First he tried to threaten them with photos, and now when given face he doesn't want it!
Does he really think he can act recklessly just because he's a relative of Secretary Liu? Their boss is not someone easy to heat up either!
"I think you've got one thing wrong, Mr. Song is not my junior! And as for Mr. Song's background, heh..."
Secretary Liu now looked at Wang Yiguo as if he were looking at a dead man, damn it, this shameless thing could go off and die on his own, but why drag me into it?
If I truly had such a junior in my family, I would have damn well enshrined him on the altar as a deity by now!
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
Wang Yiguo had indeed drunk quite a lot at noon, and he hadn't understood Secretary Liu's point.
And how significant could this young man's background be?
He knew all the names of the big shots within Magic Capital's system, and there wasn't anyone with the surname Song!
"Figure it out yourself!"
"Surname Song... there's no such person!"
Wang Yiguo slapped his head but couldn't figure it out for the life of him; the young man before him was actually the renowned Song Yun!
"Stop guessing, my name is Song Yun, and I run a few companies,"
Song Yun said indifferently.
"From your tone, aren't you just some small company owner? Song... Song Yun???"
Wang Yiguo's expression slowly changed from disdain to shock.
In the end, he stood there, dumbfounded, staring at the young man before him, unable to believe his eyes.
Although they had started enjoying life and no longer aspired for progress, the name Song Yun was simply too well-known!
So well-known that anyone from Magic Capital would give a thumbs up at the mention of his name!
"You're Song Yun... pah pah pah, you are Mr. Song?"
Wang Yiguo licked his dry lips, and when he saw Secretary Liu nod, his heart tightened, and he nearly fainted!
Damn!
Damn Secretary Liu misled me!
You knew full well that this man was a big shot who could shake up Magic Capital's economy with a mere stomp of his foot!
Why didn't you tell me!
Seeing each other frequently within the system, did making things this tense between us benefit you?
The four men behind Wang Yiguo now all stepped back in unison; if they could flee sneakily, they would have turned and run!
But they had been caught red-handed and could only think about how to resolve today's matter!
"Mr. Song, it's a misunderstanding, a flood engulfing the Dragon King Temple—a misunderstanding among our own!"
Wang Yiguo said obsequiously, rubbing his hands together with a smile: "If I had known you were the richest person in Magic Capital, I would have never allowed the manager to do such a thing!"
"So if it were an ordinary person, you would have dared?"
Song Yun's eyes flashed like lightning, and with just a simple look at Wang Yiguo, he made him feel numb all over—immediately sobering up by half!
"How could that be..."
Wang Yiguo said with an embarrassed smile: "Could you perhaps suggest a solution? We five will satisfy any demand within our power, what do you say?"
"Oh?"
Song Yun said with a smile that was not quite a smile: "What if I say I want that piece of land in the southern city that's about to undergo demolition?"
"This..."
Wang Yiguo found himself in a difficult position. Although there was much room for maneuver in this situation, that didn't mean he dared to reach out his hand that far.
"How about this? You tell me how much you paid for your phone, and we'll compensate you ten times that amount!"
Wang Yiguo racked his brains and came up with a compromise. After all, it was just a broken phone. Even ten times the amount shouldn't cost too much!
"You said it, so no backing out now."
Song Yun sat in the chair, casually picked up a pair of chopsticks from the table, and said indifferently, "Each one of these chopsticks represents 50,000. Let me calculate how much you have to compensate."
"I have countless confidential documents in my phone. Now that it's damaged, I need to find the most experienced person to restore it. Surely the going rate isn't less than 50,000!"
Wang Yiguo froze in place. He was about to get fleeced!
"Mr. Song, it's just phone repair. It can't possibly cost that much..."
"It does! I have to find someone reliable to repair it. Otherwise, if the documents leak out, my loss will be even bigger!"
"Alright, alright, continue..."
"Next up is my phone itself. I've been using it for half a year, and we've developed a bond. Emotional attachment is priceless, but today I will just take a minor loss and ask you for 100,000. Do you agree?"
"Agree!"
Wang Yiguo answered through gritted teeth.
"Then there's the phone itself. I got the largest domestic brand in Hua Country, Huawei Mi, custom made for 380,000. You can verify this, I can even provide the invoice."
Song Yun placed the chopsticks one by one on the table, making Wang Yiguo anxious. Damn it, you rich people are really something, spending hundreds of thousands on a phone!
"All that adds up to 530,000, and since you want to compensate tenfold, that makes it 5.3 million. Would you like to pay by card or transfer?"
The hefty figure instantly sucked the air from the room; you could hear everyone swallowing their saliva.
Wang Yiguo was dumbfounded—5.3 million!
And the proposal to compensate tenfold was his own suggestion!
If there were such a thing as a time machine in this world, he would definitely go back a few minutes and, before he could speak, give himself a fierce slap!
"This... Mr. Song, we are also poor... This price of yours..."
"What now? You were the one who said you'd compensate. I didn't threaten you!"
Song Yun was smiling, but there was a cold glint at the bottom of his eyes.
"Five people, 5.3 million, that's 1.06 million per person. If you think about it, it's actually acceptable..."
Wang Yiguo mumbled to himself and then turned his gaze specifically toward his four friends.
"Each of you..."
"Old Wang! What are you talking about! You were the one who offered to compensate tenfold, we didn't say anything!"
Captain Liu said with an embarrassed face. He wouldn't pay that money no matter what. Just kidding, more than a million!
That would last him how long!
"Right, right, right, what Old Liu said makes sense. You didn't consult us when you offered ten times the compensation, so if you have to compensate, you should pay the whole amount yourself!"
"Old Wang, you're foolish. How dare you make such a promise without asking about the price of the phone. Alas, my dear mother just had surgery; I'm really strapped for cash, otherwise I would definitely help you out!"
Each person had something different to say, but their overall message was clear: We're not paying a dime!
Wang Yiguo truly hadn't expected to be set up by his own friends!
His finger trembled as he pointed at the four people, furiously shouting, "Are you saying this has nothing to do with you!"
"This... Mr. Song is generous and surely won't care about small fry like us. You're just trying to suck up to Mr. Song, putting on airs like you can afford it!"
"Son of a bitch! All four of you are bastards!"
Wang Yiguo yelled emotionally.
When everything was fine, they all called him Brother Wang. But now, when there was trouble, and they needed to face it together, they all called him Old Wang!
Damn, what a mistake in choosing friends!
