After the frail beauty went to the countryside, she went crazy with scientific research.

Chapter 410, Episode 444: The Story of Leng Zhan and His Wife Being Deceived (Part 3)

Logically speaking, Kong Liping shouldn't be such a stupid person. In Lin Yuexi and Leng Xingmao's impression, at least when it comes to money, Kong Liping was incredibly stingy, always trying to get everything into her own family.

She had been trying to get benefits from the old man by using her children's names, but as far as they knew, all of Leng Zhan's family's money was in her hands.

The eldest daughter received a dowry of 666 yuan plus three turns and a ring, but her dowry consisted only of a watch and 300 yuan. The second daughter married better than the eldest and was more assertive. Her dowry was 1,000 yuan, but she kept it to herself and didn't give it to anyone. As a result, Kong Liping was so ruthless that she didn't give her dowry except for a quilt.

A person who can be so stingy with their own two daughters can be so numb to trusting a stranger with no blood relation.

Isn't that scary to think about?
Besides, Kong Liping is a knowledgeable person.

This kind of scam is really hard for most people to resist.

Leng Xingmao shuddered involuntarily. "Third Aunt, has Beijing really gotten this bad?"

Compared to Zhao Linyin, he found those people who were always trying to bargain with him to the point of exhaustion to be quite endearing.

Zhang Hongying was quick-witted, and upon seeing this, she immediately had the idea of ​​warning him.

"That's right. Not just in Beijing, but everywhere you go. Scammers are different now than before. In the past, scammers were the kind you could spot at a glance, like those who sell miracle pills. Now, the really cunning ones are like they're infiltrating, and you can't guard against them at all."

"Take Kong Liping's matter for example. Is Kong Liping really stupid? I've known her for most of my life. I don't know her completely, but I'm confident that I know about 70%. She's actually very shrewd. She's best at the ways of the inner quarters."

Zhang Hongying often felt that Kong Liping was born in the wrong era. If she had been born in ancient times, she could have easily entered the palace and become an empress.

How could someone who always says one thing to your face and another behind your back be so easily fooled?

It was Zhao Linyin who seized upon her weakness, constantly getting closer to her while exploiting her vulnerabilities step by step.

This is terrifying, because no one is without weaknesses.

Based on her observations over the past few days, Xing Mao is still a bit too naive. Perhaps because he is associated with people in the military who are generally upright, he is too trusting.

For example, the day before yesterday, a self-service market owner from Northeast China wanted to buy a batch of seafood, and he brought a shopping list.

Later, it was probably because the buyer was quite satisfied with the quality of the seafood, and the purchaser got a little carried away, resulting in a final settlement that exceeded the quantity he had pre-ordered.

The man only brought the money for the pre-order quantity. He was reluctant to give up the excess, so he discussed with Leng Xingmao that he would take the excess first and then transfer the money over when he got back.

Leng Xingmao agreed without much thought at the time, and Zhang Hongying thought he knew that person.

After the man left, Zhang Hongying asked him what was going on and found out that he didn't know him at all. The man had been introduced by a boss who had been working with him for a long time, and it was the first time he had ever met him.

They're practically complete strangers, yet they're charging 30,000 yuan!!!
At that moment, Zhang Hongying was completely numb.

I wanted to give Leng Xingmao more real-life examples to help him learn from his mistakes, but then I remembered that he was getting married tomorrow, and saying these things now would be a bit of a downer.

It's okay, we can talk about it in a few days.

Zhang Hongying quickly stuffed all the wedding gifts into a combination lock box, handed the box to Leng Xingmao, and then unceremoniously 'kicked' him out.

Go, go, go back and enjoy yourself. Don't stop us, mother and daughter, from eating our melon seeds.

"Come on, let's continue." One was a honey trap, a fairly typical one, because it caused quite a stir.

The female swindler was dating the son while also having an affair with the father, causing the couple to fall out and the father and son to become enemies. Not only were they swindled out of their money, but it also led to a criminal case.

"Seven or eight years ago, self-service markets became popular. That family was the first to try it and made a lot of money. They didn't know how to be low-key and acted like nouveau riche. As a result, they attracted the attention of scammers. It was a really tragic situation. In the end, the father died, the business failed, and they were left with a lot of debt. The son probably will never get out of this situation."

It truly resulted in the destruction of families and the loss of loved ones.

This case is quite rare; the second case is very likely to happen to you.

"Old Wu's hometown is in the rural area of ​​Northeast China, but his father was not an ordinary farmer who toiled in the fields. He went to university, started from the grassroots level, and retired as a department-level cadre."

Old Wu was transferred to Beijing about six months later than Leng Zhi. After settling in, he wanted to bring his father to Beijing to live out his retirement, but his father refused. If Old Wu kept arguing with him, his father would get angry with him.

Let me briefly describe Mr. Wu's situation: Mr. Wu only has one child, Mr. Wu. His wife passed away early, and he has never remarried. Before retiring, he worked in Ning City and owned a two-bedroom apartment there. After retiring, he stayed in Ning City and was cared for by a nanny.

Leng Zhi and Lao Wu were sworn brothers. Lao Wu always treated Leng Zhi like his own brother. Whenever he felt he couldn't solve something, the first person he thought of was Leng Zhi.

Mr. Wu was troubled by his father's reluctance to retire in Beijing. Unable to come up with a solution, he turned to Leng Zhi.

Leng Zhi told him, "How can you explain things clearly over the phone? If you really want to bring your father over, why don't you take a leave of absence and go to Ning City to have a good talk with him? Unless you did something wrong, very few elderly people don't enjoy playing with their grandchildren."

Old Wu couldn't figure out what he had done to upset his father, but he still took leave from Leng Zhi's request and went to Ning City.

Then, he discovered something terrible.

His father worked as a free 'salesman' for that nanny in Ning City.

“That nanny is a fraud. And her actions are not isolated like Zhao Linyin's; they are part of an organized group.”

The nanny's name is Feng Li. In addition to her job as a nanny, she also has another job as a salesperson for a company called Rongsheng Group.

However, the group's sales staff do not need to come to work every day. Most of them already have a regular job, and being a salesperson is just a part-time job.

Unlike other companies that can be called a group, Rongsheng Group is involved in more than one industry. They only sell health products, and most of their sales staff are nannies like Feng Li who take care of elderly men.

When Mr. Wu first retired, his health was not good for a while. He didn't have any major illnesses, but he just felt unwell all over. He felt weak, lazy, and lacked energy every day.

Families with retired elderly members can easily identify this problem. It's not actually an illness; it's just that the elderly person has suddenly become idle and lost their motivation for life, and their mindset hasn't adjusted well.

Once his attention is diverted and his mindset is changed, his "illness" will gradually improve.

Don't let him be idle, don't let him have too much free time to daydream, keep him busy, and guide him to focus his attention on his interests and hobbies.

That's exactly what Feng Li did. While giving Wu's father health supplements, she also took him out of the house to buy groceries, dance, play chess with other elderly men, and participate in activities organized by the seniors themselves.

For example, a few people can go hiking together, or take a short trip together.

I'm having so much fun every day, I don't have time to feel down!
