Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 2224: Chapter 1692: ”Persuading” Ma Weiqian

Ma Weiqian saw Bai Xiaosheng questioning him, while Lei Ying stood by, ready to pounce like ”a butcher sharpening his knife,” seemingly ready to ”strike” him at any moment, and he panicked.

If he doesn’t say something valuable today, he might never get out of here.

Ma Weiqian’s face looked incredibly conflicted and ugly.

”Mr. Bai, Mr. Lei, I beg you, I’m really just a small employee. I know very little, please don’t make it hard for me. If I say something I shouldn’t and offend those above me, losing my job, how will I live? I have an eighty-year-old mother and two children to support.”

Ma Weiqian wore a sorrowful expression, pleading incessantly.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded as he listened.

”Initially, I just wanted to casually chat and see if I could learn something,” Bai Xiaosheng smiled at Ma Weiqian, ”But listening to you, it seems you know things significant enough to get yourself fired! Now I’m even more interested in knowing how important what you know really is!”

Ma Weiqian’s expression changed immediately.

His pleas for mercy seemed to have only brought him closer to danger.

”As for the eighty-year-old mother and two children, whether it’s true or not isn’t the point. I remember when you wanted me to persuade Cui Chen, you offered me personal compensation in the hundreds of thousands of US Dollars, which the company couldn’t reimburse, so it came from your personal account, right? This proves, Mr. Ma, you’re quite wealthy,” Bai Xiaosheng calmly smiled, ”If you get fired for saying something you shouldn’t today, we’ll visit your family. If the situation is true, I’ll provide for them to ensure they have no worries in the future.”

Bai Xiaosheng added, ”Besides, I believe that whatever you say or do, you’ll handle it confidentially, and at worst, deny it to the death, right?”

Ma Weiqian’s face twitched, forcing out a smile more difficult than crying.

If Bai Xiaosheng knew, he’d realize that even if Ma Weiqian got unemployed, the money he saved could comfortably support his wife and son, as for his mother... she’s left in Huaxia, and he sees her less than twice a year...

But no matter what, he can’t tell the truth to this man here.

Otherwise, the position and future he has gained with difficulty will be destroyed in an instant! What meaning would his life have then!

”Mr. Bai, I really have no comment! No matter what questions you ask, as long as they involve company or business matters, even just a little, I won’t say a word!” Ma Weiqian steeled his heart, stiffened his neck, and decided to risk everything.

After all, you can’t really beat me to death, since I won’t die, at most I’ll take a beating, and I accept that.

Ma Weiqian had a rogue expression.

”You haven’t even heard what I want to ask and you’re so resolute?” Bai Xiaosheng looked at Ma Weiqian with a smile, then sighed lightly, ”Then I understand. What I want to ask is indeed quite important. If I can’t ’convince’ you to change your mind, questioning you is pointless.”

Saying this, Bai Xiaosheng glanced at Lei Ying.

Lei Ying immediately understood, walked over, grabbed Ma Weiqian’s arm, and politely said, ”Brother, let’s have a chat... let’s talk privately!”

Ma Weiqian was most terrified of Lei Ying, and immediately cried out in panic, ”What is there to talk to you about, let me go... I won’t go!”

Lei Ying, regardless of whether Ma Weiqian agreed or not, carried him off like a chick to a spot behind the wall.

Soon, he could be heard screaming like a pig being slaughtered.

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but voice her concern to Bai Xiaosheng quietly, ”Isn’t this bad, Xiaosheng, isn’t it too violent? If that Ma reports to the police and causes trouble for Lei Ying, what then... from the sound of it, I hope Lei doesn’t end up dismantling him.”

Fortunately, this was a secluded alley without a soul in sight, but the screams were indeed quite loud.

Bai Xiaosheng chuckled and reassured Lin Weiwei, ”Don’t worry, Lei Ying knows his limits and won’t treat that guy roughly. If it were a real fight, Ma Weiqian wouldn’t stand a chance against even two punches from Lei Ying.”

”Then what’s this...” Lin Weiwei pointed in that direction.

Bai Xiaosheng said meaningfully, ”Lei Ying has means beyond our imagination to ’persuade’ Ma Weiqian.”

Lin Weiwei had no choice but to nod.

Within five minutes, Lei Ying returned with Ma Weiqian.

The latter was sad and fearful, his face covered in snot and tears.

”Willing to talk?” Bai Xiaosheng asked Lei Ying.

Lei Ying nodded and stepped aside.

Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but sidle up to Lei Ying and poke him, whispering, ”How did you ’persuade’ him just now?”

Lei Ying smiled silently, lowered his voice as he said to Lin Weiwei, ”You know about acupoints in the human body, right?”

Being a Huaxia person, Lin Weiwei naturally had heard of acupoints.

”Some ’torture’ doesn’t require breaking the skin or using instruments, you just have to find the right acupoints and press down hard, ensuring they feel enough of the sourness, numbness, pain, and sting. Believe me, those who haven’t experienced it can’t bear it!” Lei Ying said confidently.

Lin Weiwei listened, dumbfounded, muttering, ”Really impressive! Listening to that noise, I thought you had torn him apart...”

”Don’t accuse me wrongly!” Lei Ying immediately protested, ”We are now high-ranking professionals, civilized people. I have a wife and plan to have a child next year, I would never do anything too bloody or violent.”

This statement made Lin Weiwei roll her eyes.

The so-called battlefield grim reaper now claims to refuse violence...

As the two whispered nearby, Bai Xiaosheng was speaking with Ma Weiqian.

”Mr. Ma, can we have a chat now?” Bai Xiaosheng smiled, ”Or do you want to continue your ’righteous refusal’?”

Ma Weiqian’s eyes filled with panic, and he immediately shook his head vigorously like a rattle, realizing his reaction was wrong when he saw Bai Xiaosheng’s expression, and quickly nodded, ”I, I’m willing to talk!”

To get someone like Ma Weiqian to divulge key information, the simplest and most direct method is ”coercion and inducement.”

Make him scared and let him taste the benefits.

Having done enough before, Bai Xiaosheng now planned to offer inducements.

The carrot and stick is always the best combination.

”Thus, if what you say satisfies me, I’ll pay you enough money, whatever you want! If the information is reliable and significant, I might even buy out your future career!” Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

Ma Weiqian looked at Bai Xiaosheng in shock, his gaze somewhat conflicted.

He had heard a little about Bai Xiaosheng’s actions in Europe and South America.

This man, although young, seemed to always mean what he said from the moment he appeared.

His personal promise, it seems, can be trusted quite highly.

”If you feel that working for me leaves you unable to stay in North America and you want to go to Europe or South America, I can pave the way for you,” Bai Xiaosheng said, ”The company you go to won’t be below Ambray’s level, and your position and salary can only get higher!”

Hearing this, Ma Weiqian couldn’t help but swallow.

Opportunities in life might be right in front of him!

While Ma Weiqian hesitated, Bai Xiaosheng used an undeniable tone to tell him, ”Believe me, I can offer you much more than Ambray, and far more than Caroline can give you!”

Ma Weiqian’s eyes were immensely conflicted, but he finally gritted his teeth.

”Fine! I’ll tell you everything you want to know, even before you ask!”

”But for the first thing, if I say it, I demand five million!”

Ma Weiqian emphasized, ”US Dollars!”
