Siheyuan: Starting from 1958

Chapter 690 Must Lend It to Them (First Update)
Seeing that his eldest brother was frowning and not responding, with a worried expression on his face, Lao Wang spoke again: "I saw Wang Dong returned to the courtyard this afternoon and didn't go out..."

"He must be at home now..."

"Why don't you go ask Wang Dong?"

The eldest brother hesitated for a moment and replied, "Dad..."

"Isn't it a bit too much to ask Wang Dong about such a small matter?"

Lao Wang immediately said with a look of disappointment: "What do you know?"

“There is no leader who doesn’t like people who report more.”

"You are Wang Dong's neighbor, which gives you an extra layer of protection compared to the ordinary employees of the hotel. If you can get closer to Wang Dong, maybe when Dongjun Hotel opens a branch next time, you can take the opportunity to become a team leader and supervisor like Yan Fugui's two daughters-in-law."

"If I see Wang Dong every day and treat him like a stranger, without even saying hello and without even thinking of reporting when something happens, how can I get closer to him?"

"Besides, it's well known in Siheyuan that Wang Dong and the Jia family are at odds. Now Bang Geng has come to our house to borrow money. As an employee of Dongjun Hotel, you should report to Wang Dong and listen to his thoughts."

After listening to his father's explanation, although the eldest brother was still a little reluctant, he did not refuse again...

The east wing of the front yard.

Looking at Wang Yangshan who suddenly visited him, Wang Dong's face was full of confusion.

To be honest: although he and Wang Yangshan are neighbors, they don't interact much in daily life. They just nod to each other when they meet. They can be said to be casual acquaintances.

After Wang Yangshan started working at Dongjun Hotel, the two people interacted more often, but their relationship did not become deep.

After all, Dongjun Hotel now has more than a thousand employees, and he cannot even be familiar with all the leaders, let alone Wang Yangshan, who is only his neighbor.

Although the relationship between the two was not very good, Wang Dong believed that the other party would not come to him for no reason, and even come overnight.

Ask directly: "Wang Yangshan...what's the matter?"

"Boss..." Wang Yangshan spoke with a stiff expression on his face.

Just as she was about to continue, she was interrupted by Wang Dong: "How many times have I told you that you can call me boss in the hotel, and just call me by my name outside the hotel..."

"We have been neighbors since we were little. It's too strange for you to call me boss in the yard."

"Just call me Wang Dong..."

"Wang... Wang Dong..." Facing Wang Dong, who has more than a thousand employees, Wang Yangshan was more or less restrained. He hesitated for several seconds before calling out these two words. After all, just one sentence from that person could make him lose his job, and even affect his development in the hotel.

"Here's the situation."

"Just now, Yi Zhonghai brought Bang Geng to my dad to borrow money. He asked for 1,500 yuan and asked him to pay back 1,700 yuan before the Chinese New Year next year."

"And we'll use the house that the Jia family currently lives in as collateral. If we can't repay the loan before the New Year next year, the east wing of the central courtyard will be ours..."

"I don't want to deal with the Jia family and don't want to borrow this money."

"But my father is a little jealous of the 200 yuan interest that Yi Zhonghai promised..."

"Do you think we should lend this money to Bang Geng?"

As soon as Wang Dong heard this, he knew that Wang Yangshan was concerned about his relationship with the Jia family and did not dare to lend money to Banggeng.

However, he did not intend to let Wang Yangshan reject Yi Zhonghai and Bang Geng. Instead, he replied with approval: "You are so stupid that you don't want the benefits that are right in front of you..."

"I'm telling you, I have to borrow this money..."

"Maybe it will bring some unexpected benefits to your family..."

"But you must sign a relevant agreement with Banggeng regarding the mortgage of the east wing of the central courtyard. It would be best if you ask the street office to be a witness, otherwise Banggeng will not be able to pay back the money but will be reluctant to give the house." Wang Tianyang's eyes lit up and he asked, "Unexpected benefit?"

“Wang Dong…”

"You mean that Bang Geng may not be able to pay back the money in a year..."

At this point, Wang Tianyang's brows immediately wrinkled into a big "川" shape, and he shook his head and replied: "It shouldn't be..."

"I heard that Bang Geng and Xu Damao made a lot of money doing foreign trade business..."

"Yan Laoshi from our front yard invested 3,000 yuan in Xu Damao, and in less than half a year he got 1,500 yuan in return."

"Not only did they confiscate the money, but they also added another 500 yuan and invested it all in Xu Damao..."

"Bang Geng was willing to mortgage the Jia family's house in order to borrow money for foreign trade business. This shows that he is absolutely sure of making money..."

"How can I not be able to pay back the money?"

Wang Dong smiled and replied: "Since it is a business, there will definitely be losses and gains..."

"Can you guarantee that Xu Damao's foreign trade business will always make money?"

"If money is really that easy to make, there wouldn't be so many young people in Beijing who can't even find a job..."

"Anyway, just listen to me. Don't miss out on the benefits that come to your door."

"When signing the loan agreement, be sure to clearly state that the Jia family's property is mortgaged, so that no one will get into trouble later."

…………

The Wang family’s front yard.

Compared to some honest and dull bosses, Lao Wang is obviously much smarter.

When Wang Dong heard from the eldest brother that Banggeng might not be able to pay back the money next year, Wang's eyes suddenly became hot.

The eldest brother was confused by his father and asked quickly: "Dad...you don't think Banggeng can't pay us back next year, do you?"

"He and Xu Damao are doing foreign trade business outside. The money they invested can double in a year. How could they not be able to pay back our loan?"

Lao Wang cursed with a look of disappointment: "What do you know..."

"Do you think Wang Dong opened so many restaurants in Beijing for nothing?"

"To put it bluntly, ten Xu Damao are not as good as one Wang Dong."

"Although I don't know why he suspects that Banggeng won't be able to repay the loan next year, I believe Wang Dong would not be making a fuss. There must be some reasons hidden in this that we don't know about."

"And he said something that was very true: If money was really that easy to make, there wouldn't be so many people in Beijing who couldn't even get enough to eat, and so many workers who wouldn't dare to quit their jobs even though they were only getting 20 or 30 yuan a month."

"Maybe there's something wrong with the foreign trade business that Xu Damao told us about."

"No matter what, since Wang Dong agrees to let us lend money to Bang Geng, then let's lend it to him."

"As for the house the Jia family lives in now..."

"Our original purpose was just to earn 200 yuan in interest. Even if the accident Wang Dong mentioned didn't happen, we wouldn't have suffered any loss. But if God opens his eyes and really lets the East Wing of the Central Courtyard fall into our hands, it would definitely be a blessing that would never come true."

"So we don't have to think too much. Listen to Wang Dong and sign the loan agreement tomorrow. Especially the mortgage of the house, it must be clearly stated in the agreement without leaving any loopholes..."
