Chapter 48 [The Way to Quit Greed]
Chapter 48 [The Way to Avoid Greed]
The city outside the window is brilliant and messy with night lights, but tomorrow it will soon return to brightness and reveal its order, just like the natural law between men and women.
At this time, Yan Jieju was obviously the same as this city, with a brilliant and messy mood. When she looked at Jin Yang who had always spoken little, was calm and energetic, her heart inexplicably hit her chest frequently.
She didn't understand when this feeling originated from, it was the mighty moment when the hotel was in the big room. He suddenly waved his palm to slap Liu Decao? Or was he indifferent to treating her as nothing in another secret room? Or was he showing another kind of man's demeanor today at noon?
Maybe he does have magic, maybe she does want to drink more wine. She also wants to relax, but her nerves... after a sip of wine, she becomes tighter.
However, he seemed to have no interest in continuing to drink. He ordered a glass of pure water for her gentlemanly, then got up and went to the bar, chatting and laughing with Han Weidong and the others.
At this moment, Yan Jieju suddenly felt a sense of coldness, as if she had returned to her childhood, wandering alone on the cold streets, searching non-stop, but couldn't find what she wanted, so she continued to wander at a loss on the streets where the cold wind was raging.
Jin Yang was actually very conflicted about the message sent by this girl. He repeatedly warned himself that he should be content. He has Su Juan and Bai Xiaoqin. If he has enough, can he hope for more?
But the charm that Yan Jieju exuded tonight was enough to make any man attached to him. Liu Jing, Cheng Baoguo, and even Xia Guohua's hearts were ready to move. Such a perfect body, gentle and smiling eyebrows, and her piano music, resisting? It was difficult to resist. So he chose to escape and escape to the bar.
Perhaps through this gap, he hopes that he can figure out what people must know what is most worth cherishing.
Only greed without giving? Or the pleasure of possession. No, in the long river of time, no one can always be invincible!
When Jin Yang returned to her side, her tone was relaxed and her smile became more and more calm.
Yan Jieju was getting more and more nervous. Although she refused to admit it, this strange feeling seemed like some kind of... expectation?
However, a phone ringing woke her up from her dream.
"Brother!" Jin Yang stood up nervously, listened for a while, "Okay, I'll go back right away."
After putting down the phone, he apologized to Yan Jieju, "There are some things at home, and I must go back and deal with them immediately. I can't continue to wait for news with you." After that, he waved to Liu Jing at the bar.
Liu Jing ran over happily, his eyes not daring to fall on Yan Jieju's face, "Hehe! Brother Yang! Just give me some instructions if you have something to do."
"Take care for Miss Haoyan!" Jin Yang said and patted his shoulder, smiled at Yan Jieju, and turned around and left the bar.
She suddenly calmed down, her curved eyelashes raised, and her clear eyes winded through the spotlights of the bar, following the man's back.
Next, it was Liu Jing's turn to be at a loss, but she became calm and free. She smiled from time to time and asked Liu Jing about Jin Yang.
Liu Jing had a question and answer at first, but the more he talked, the more he understood. Yan Jieju had ideas about Brother Yang, whom he admired. After judging this fact, Liu Jing began to calm down and talked happily.
"Well, Kim Joo hasn't gotten married. He is so young and promising. He must have a girlfriend, right?"
Liu Jing laughed and said, "It seems that he has a girlfriend in Wujiang, a college student..."
She took a deep breath, remained silent for a while, and stopped talking about Jin Yang.
...
Besides, Jin Yang drove back to the old house in the river embankment and hurriedly opened the door and entered the yard. Seeing the window and light, his heart relaxed slightly, but it was not the end. In his memory, his uncle rarely called him, and he couldn't even remember whether he had it.
He took a deep breath, making his expression as calm and gentle as possible, and pushed open the door.
To his surprise, Uncle Jin sat at the desk with a smile on his face, looked up at him, pointed to a bank card on the table, "I called you back because someone sent a bank card just now."
"Oh?" Seeing that it was a gift, Jin Yang's heart completely calmed down. But he suddenly said, "How much is the card?"
Uncle Jin blinked at him, "Guess."
"It goes without saying that this must be given to me." Jin Yang sat opposite him, stared at the bank card, and thoughtfully said: "If the number is not large, you won't rush to call and recruit me. I guess... between tens and twenty-hundreds of thousands."
"Why guess this number?" Uncle Jin suddenly shook his head, "Forget it, I don't want to know. Let me tell you the truth. They said there is 500,000 in this card."
"Five hundred thousand? Confirm?" Jin Yang thrust his back and straightened his body and said, "Who sent it? How could you..." He wanted to ask Uncle Jin why he accepted it. But on the other hand, with Uncle's lifelong cautious attitude, since he accepted it, there must be his reason.
"I'm not sure, so I want you to come back." Uncle Jin pushed a piece of paper on the desk in front of Jin Yang, "This is the password he left. Please take the card to check the amount."
"Yeah!" Jin Yang picked up the card and password paper, got up and walked out, "I'll be back soon."
After more than ten minutes, Jin Yang returned to the house with a strange expression. Before he could speak, Uncle Jin put the teacup on the table and sighed deeply, "The amount is correct?"
"Correct, 500,000 yuan!" Jin Yang was silent for a moment, "Is it Ma Guofu?"
Uncle Jin said: "He said his surname is Feng, and he is your friend, Hongtu Construction Company."
"Feng Jun!" Jin Yang said.
"Yes, that's the name."
Jin Yang habitually reached out to take out the cigarette when he was considering the problem. As soon as he took it out, he suddenly remembered that his uncle had explicitly prohibited it and was not allowed to smoke in his room. He had to put it back in his pocket, lower his head slightly, thinking to himself, did Feng Jun threaten to trouble his uncle last time? Why did he suddenly change his attitude and give him a huge sum of 500,000 yuan? No matter how he thinks he is not worth so much money. Behind Feng is the King of Yan, who is the role he is playing? In a blink of an eye, he thought of Uncle Jin's unexpected behavior of receiving gifts, and couldn't help but look up at his uncle.
Uncle Jin knew what he was thinking and said, "Money is just a piece of paper. If you don't bring it to life, you won't take it away. People's survival and life have limited demand for money. Besides, you, I have adhered to the principle of life, so how can you fall in front of money now?"
"Well! I know this, I think you must have your reasons."
Uncle Jin started to make a long speech again and said, "Jin Yang! Many people will only truly understand after leaving their leadership positions that anyone who gives money to themselves is not real friends. They please you, curry favor with you, care about you, and obey you, for the sake of the power in your hands. Once you cannot meet his requirements, once you can no longer provide protection to him, he will immediately scold you, hate you, and bite you."
Jin Yang shrugged, "Money is valuable only in the process of use, and it is only possessed but not enjoyed. At least for me, I don't have time to make it. Besides, if I need money, I will earn it openly."
Uncle Jin said: "The reason I accepted it is to temporarily relieve the disaster for you. Whether they really ask for money or conspiracy to frame you, it will be extremely unfavorable to you."
Jin Yang looked at the old man in confusion, but did not ask. He knew that his uncle would solve his doubts.
"If I don't accept it, they will think of another way to come to you or cheat you. If I accept it, they may think that they have mastered you and controlled you, and it is unlikely that they will use another new trick..."
Jin Yang nodded with emotion. Jiang is indeed so hot! But he quickly thought of a new question, "But, this money?"
Uncle Jin's smile became a little meaningful. "I will send the money anonymously to the provincial anti-corruption account tomorrow."
Jin Yang suddenly realized and Zhan Mei said, "I understand. When they come to cheat me out of evidence of taking bribes in the future, I can hand over the remittance receipt."
"Jin Yang! Your uncle has seen too many 'smart people'. They believe that the value of *** is always more important than money. When you achieve complete success in ***, money is equivalent to playing with the symbol in your palm. Most of those who really hold important positions and have great power do not value money very much. Compared with money, they sometimes value the power and status they currently have. Under normal circumstances, they will not sacrifice their career and reputation for temporary economic benefits." Jin Dafu said earnestly: "People change with the changes in the environment. Any couple who gets a marriage certificate will not think of the word divorce in their heads. The condition for being able to completely abstain from greed is that the spiritual gains you gain far more than wealth. Being a member of the ruler, wealth is really nothing at all. The more you give it to it, the less you care about it."
It seems that Jin Yang is not listening attentively. In fact, he remembers every word from his uncle. When he heard "a senior official in charge", he couldn't help but grin. He heard his uncle's regret in his life, and was an aide for his whole life, never enjoyed real decisions, and showed his ambitions. At the same time, he also heard his uncle's unwillingness and expectations for him, and bet an old man's stubbornness and ideals on him. It is obvious that he used "only being a high-ranking official can he have no greed."
If it were the previous year or even the first half of the year, he would sneer at it and think it was a fantasy. But now, to be precise, this night, he did not disgust the old man's request for him. Instead, he felt that there was a possibility of existence.
"I try my best, haha!" Jin Yang comforted.
"The foundation you told me last time is extremely critical to anyone who is interested in the career. If you manage it well, you will succeed." After Uncle Jin said this, the expression on his face gradually calmed down.
"Um!"
Uncle Jin's eyes suddenly turned, and the old saying reiterated: "Don't forget to bring her to see me this weekend."
