Chapter 780: Chapter 350: What Stood Up Was Not the Flag, But the Father’s Waist_3

Li Zhaohu’s situation was something he knew well. A few years ago, he made quite a bit of money with his renovation team, buying an Audi and a house in the county.

Even if the renovation company was delaying his final payment, it wasn’t as if he couldn’t come up with twenty thousand yuan.

Ultimately, it was because he hadn’t genuinely taken him seriously.

He felt that even if he offended him, it was no big deal, he could use the money for some cash flow instead.

This delay could last until the end of the year in all likelihood.

Tiger took a puff of his cigarette and said, ”We’ve known each other for so many years, we’re from the same village, you think I would default on the debt? You can be at ease.”

Tang Jianying took a deep breath, emotionally saying, ”Tiger, back when you first started working, you worked for me as a little helper. I treated you as a friend, which is why I let you delay for two months. One must have a conscience.”

”Thud—” Tiger casually tossed the playing cards onto the table, his tone turning cold as well, ”Jianying, I can get hardware from you, isn’t that taking care of your business? Shouldn’t you thank me? Just because I’m having cash flow issues now, you’re sarcastically accusing me of lacking a conscience?”

”That’s not how you take care of business.”

Seeing the sharp attitude between the two, several people nearby hurriedly stood up to persuade them.

”Tiger, Jianying, don’t argue, don’t argue, we’re all our own people, let’s talk nicely.”

”Yeah, it’s not necessary.”

...

Though they were working with Tiger, they were from neighboring villages and were also acquainted with Tang Jianying.

Among them was also a cousin from the same clan, Tang Xianli.

It was also through Tang Xianli that he learned Tiger wasn’t attending any engagements today and was staying here.

Tang Xianli persuaded Tang Jianying a bit and said to Li Zhaohu, ”Why don’t we do this, Tiger? Just give Jianying some money first, let him feel at ease. Jianying’s family is also quite struggling; his wife was sick before and they spent quite a bit, they just cleared the debt.”

”Huff—” Tiger exhaled a puff of smoke and stubbed out the cigarette butt.

Sneering, he took his wallet from the cabinet, pulled out a wad of cash, and tossed it onto the table.

”Alright, this is ten thousand yuan, consider it an advance from the last cycle. Write me a receipt.”

Tang Jianying’s lips moved, just about to say something.

Next to him, Tang Xianli quickly tugged at him, giving a meaningful look.

After hesitating for a moment, Tang Jianying sighed and came to the table.

First, he counted the money, then picked up a pen and paper to write a receipt.

Putting the ten thousand yuan in his pocket, Tang Jianying said softly, ”Then I’ll be off.”

After saying that, he turned and walked away.

Tiger also followed him outside, leaning against the office door frame, looking down from above, ”Jianying, we’ve worked together so many years, and you’re still like this.

I have two renovation teams under me, each month I take nearly ten thousand yuan worth of hardware from you.

With this, I definitely won’t be getting goods from your shop in the future.

If you ask me, you’re just too petty, you don’t know how to do business, so you’ve never really made it big.”

Tang Jianying’s steps paused, feeling a surge of frustration in his chest.

Back in the day, he was the foreman in the construction team, Li Zhaohu was his helper.

So now, hearing him say such things sounded particularly irritating and aggrieved.

Just at this moment.

”Beep beep—” A short, deep honk sounded from beside him.

Soon after, a brand new, shiny silver Mercedes-Benz stopped next to Tang Jianying.

The sleek car lines continued to exude a unique metallic texture even in overcast light,

The streamlined car body still sparkled with understated luxury under the dim light.

The space silver paint, shiny and new, looked like a mirror, reflecting the somewhat dilapidated factory surroundings.

”Clack—” The car door was casually pushed open.

Tang Song looked at his father in front of him and called out loudly, ”Dad.”

His father, not yet fifty, already had quite a bit of white hair.

Wearing work clothes that weren’t exactly clean, years of labor made his back slightly bent and wrinkles crisscrossed his face.

Yet from his well-defined features, one could still see this was a handsome young man back in the day.

With his shout, Tiger and others looking over from the distance were all a bit stunned.

”Song!? You...” Tang Jianying looked at his son in front of him, his face showing expressions of surprise and delight.

He glanced at the silver Mercedes-Benz beside him, then at his robust and tall son.

Tang Song showed a wide smile, ”What’s the matter, Dad, don’t recognize me?”

”Good son, you’re really looking sharp.” Tang Jianying, coming back to his senses, went forward and patted his son’s shoulder, smiling, ”Really sturdy, almost like when I was young. This looks the part, finally no longer so sloppy!”

”I’ve told you all, I’ve been working out recently.”

Then, Tang Jianying pointed to the Mercedes-Benz beside and hesitantly asked, ”This car is...”

His son had said he would come back with a new car.

Not revealing what car it was, he had kept it a mystery.

But seeing this silver Mercedes-Benz suddenly appear, he was uncertain.

Tang Song chuckled, ”Just bought it, Mercedes-Benz S450L, nice, right?”

Tang Jianying’s expression froze for a moment, eyelids twitching.

It really turned out to be his son’s car!

Looking at the grand chrome grille, Tang Jianying walked up to the car.

The grand and luxurious Mercedes-Benz S-Class sedan, the bright chrome grille glimmered with metallic glow, the distinctive tristar emblem shone brightly.

Tang Jianying couldn’t help but reach out to touch the elegant Mercedes emblem on the car hood.

The clear, solid metallic texture made his heart surge with excitement.

Before he was laid off, he had been a freight driver at the flour mill and was quite knowledgeable about cars.
