After exchanging pleasantries, we went straight to the topic.
Chen Jianmin sat opposite me and said: "I heard Lao Qian tell you about him. He saw a ghost a while ago, and you helped him solve it. It only took one night and was very efficient. Now I need someone with real skills. People, it's easy to talk about remuneration, but if someone cheats on me, I won't let him go easily, haha."
He was reminding me that if I don't have real ability, I should get out immediately, otherwise I may suffer retaliation. I just smiled and said nothing, waiting for his next words.
"Do you know the Taoist Feng Shui technique?" Chen Jianmin asked.
I answered truthfully: "I don't understand. If you are looking for a tomb, I can't help."
"Then what do you know?"
"I know a thing or two about the art of exorcising ghosts and catching demons, and the art of spells."
"I heard from Lao Qian that when you were eating, the headless ghost suddenly appeared. You casually took out a charm, lit it on fire without using any props, and then beat the headless ghost away? Can you perform it for me? Take a look?" Chen Jianmin said with interest.
As I took out the Yang Talisman from my pocket, I said, "This is a basic skill that every orthodox successor of Taoism knows. It's nothing unusual." As I said that, I lit the Yang Talisman in my hand with ease.
Chen Jianmin said with appreciation: "Yes, you are indeed a man of real ability. Although you are young, you are not proud. You are honest and humble. Young man, I want to meet your master, is that okay?"
I said in a low voice: "My master passed away a year ago."
"I'm sorry for bringing up your sadness."
"It doesn't matter. Vice President Chen, it seems that you have to do something very important. I'm also worried that I'm not qualified, so I'll leave first." This guy's meaning was obvious. He thought I was too young and inexperienced. , so I might as well ask to leave on my own to avoid being kicked out later.
"Wait a minute." Chen Jianmin said, "Young man, to be honest, I'm not satisfied with your age and experience, but I'm very satisfied with your character. You don't talk much, which is very good. I decided to hire you! But it's ugly words. To be honest, we are going to do a secret thing this time. When we come back, we cannot mention this matter to anyone, otherwise our Chen family will make him disappear from the world!"
"I'm sorry, I don't want to go." I stood up and walked out the door. At the same time, I sighed in my heart. I will never deal with this kind of people again. They threaten people at every turn. This feeling is very bad and disrespectful. good. What's more, they might kill me to keep it secret. This is no joke.
"Young man, wait a minute." Chen Jianmin shouted again: "I just told the ugly things in front of me. I also did this to keep it secret. I know what you are worried about. I am afraid that I will be detrimental to you. You can rest assured about this. I, Chen The Chen family will hire many people this time, including several big shots. We, the Chen family, are not murderers. We can't kill everyone just to keep it secret. If you agree, I can pay a deposit of 1 million in advance. If this happens Now that it's done, in addition to the salary that should be given to you, how about adding two million more in hush money?"
I thought about it and thought he was right, and with such a high remuneration, I had no reason not to go!
But even though he has money, he doesn't care about millions. But I won't offer such a high salary for no reason. The actions I will face must be very difficult!
People can only grow in adversity. If you don't dare to challenge and only dare to beat the devil, you will never become a real master.
So I gritted my teeth and said, "Okay! I agree! When will we set off?"
"Tomorrow at two o'clock in the afternoon. I heard that you don't have a mobile phone yet, so it's inconvenient to contact you. I'll lend you one first."
"No, someone gave me one yesterday." As I said that, I took out my Sanlu mobile phone.
Chen Jianmin said: "Tell me your mobile phone number so that I can contact you easily. I will call the finance department now and transfer one million to you."
After exchanging mobile phone numbers, I said: "No need to pay a deposit. Let's settle the settlement together when I come back. I believe you won't cheat, haha." I smiled, turned around and walked out of the conference room.
Not far from the Huaxia Group, the phone rang. It was Chen Jianmin. After picking up the phone, Chen Jianmin said: "I forgot to tell you that the place we are going to is a certain mountain range. When we get there, the phone rings. There is no signal, and we expect to be back within a month. You should make up an excuse and tell your family first, so as not to worry them."
After I got home, I told my mother: "Mom, I found a job. Huaxia Group is building a laboratory in a certain mountain range. They are recruiting workers now. I signed up and was selected! The monthly salary is 10,000. "
"Son, have you been deceived? You haven't graduated from high school, and you haven't been caught in the door. How can you be given a monthly salary of 10,000 yuan?"
I was immediately speechless, and after a few seconds I continued to write: "It's true, Mom, I actually signed up for Huaxia Group. The reason why the salary is so high is because the conditions are relatively difficult. I work as a laborer, no. Literacy is required."
Mom nodded: "Where is the construction laboratory?"
"I don't know, it's kept secret, but it is said that there is no signal coverage in that mountain range, and your mobile phone will not work after you get there."
My mother said worriedly: "Son, let's not go, otherwise we won't be able to contact you when you leave, and we don't know where you went."
I comforted: "It's okay, Mom. The leader of Huaxia Group said that this job can only be done for about a month. Although I am a bit tired, I can only earn 10,000 yuan this month. It will take me ten months to earn the money by serving dishes." The money arrived."
Looking at my mother's still worried eyes, I said, "Mom, I've grown up, and it's time for me to go out on my own."
After my father came back, he also agreed with me to go out on my own and told me to take care of myself.
Then I went back to my house to pack my things, including: Chengying sword, makeup box, some charms, two ginseng sticks, less than half a bottle of cow's tears, yellow paper, cinnabar, chicken blood, ink and other props, because if the charms If it's not enough, you can also draw some temporarily. There is also a shirt, a set of sportswear, two pairs of underwear, spare batteries and chargers for mobile phones and other items.
While I was cleaning up, my phone rang. It was Xu Xiaoling. I picked up the phone: "Hello."
"Cousin, what are you doing?" Xu Xiaoling asked with a smile.
I said a little helplessly: "I'm packing my things. I have to go on a long trip tomorrow. I just wanted to call you. Let me tell you, there is no mobile phone signal where I want to go and the phone can't be connected. It will probably take about a month. return."
"Where are you going?" Xu Xiaoling asked.
"I'm not sure. This time it was the vice president of Huaxia Group who asked me for help. He didn't tell me the location."
Xu Xiaoling muttered for a while: "Huaxia Group... Huaxia Group... the vice president... is his name Chen Jianmin?"
"Huh? How do you know?" I asked curiously.
Xu Xiaoling was silent for a while: "Xiaolong, you don't even know where your destination is, so you'd better not go."
I smiled: "Don't worry, for someone as old as me, could I be kidnapped? When I come back, I'll treat you to dinner!"
At two o'clock in the afternoon the next day, I arrived at the gate of Huaxia Group on time and called Chen Jianmin: "I'm here."
"Well, I saw you. Now you go into the yard. There is a white Camry on your left, license plate number sb945. Get in that car and the driver will take you to your destination." Chen Jianmin said.
After saying that, Chen Jianmin hung up the phone.
Without further ado, I opened the car door and sat in the back seat. The driver glanced at me and started the car.
The driver looked about thirty years old. He was a very strange man. The car drove for two days and two nights in a row. He didn't say a word. I even suspected that he was mute. Of course, I didn't talk to him either, except when I wanted him to stop the car when it was convenient.
As for eating, there are biscuits and milk in the car.
This afternoon, he finally stopped the car on his own initiative! This is a place where birds don't poop, surrounded by mountains. There is a large tent not far away. I don't know where it is. The mobile phone signal has long been lost. The driver gestured to me to get off the bus.
After I got out of the car with my backpack, the driver turned the car around and drove away. Well, this guy might be a real mute.
I turned my eyes back to the direction of the tent. There were more than 20 people standing there, both men and women. They came out after hearing the sound of the car. Most of these people were bodyguards in black suits. Only four of them were in casual clothes, two men and two women. They were all around twenty years old. The men were handsome and the women were pretty.
I walked over with the package, and one of the men asked me: "Zhang Xiaolong?" He was about 20 years old, 1.75 meters tall, thin, definitely handsome, and exuded a Feminine temperament.
"Yes." I replied.
"So young? Huh! How can you help us if you haven't taken off your nipple hair yet?" The feminine man said without hesitation.
The short-haired girl behind him said dissatisfiedly: "Second Young Master Chen, you have to be careful what you say. What's wrong with being young? Looking down on those who are young? Then I'm leaving."
Another man said calmly: "Don't worry, Miss Jiang, Haozhe's character is so straightforward."
The short-haired girl snorted to 'Second Young Master Chen': "Learn more from your brother." After saying that, she turned around and walked back to the tent.
A cold light flashed in Chen Ershao's eyes and he walked into another tent, followed by the long-haired girl.
The man with an indifferent expression said: "My name is Chen Haotian, the one just now is my second brother Chen Haozhe, the girl with long hair is my second brother's girlfriend Shasha, the girl with short hair is Miss Jiang, and the rest are bodyguards, so I won't introduce them to you. I've heard about you from Chen Jianmin, and it's very good. We haven't all arrived yet, so you can live in the same tent with me first." As he said that, he also walked into a tent. . .
