Chapter 886 Cunning Merchant

Such fear just once was enough to leave a lasting impression on him.

The man definitely doesn't want to go through that again.

"Tell Grandpa Mu and Grandma Tan not to worry too much."

"Well, I will."

"Thank you, Xiao Xiao."

The man's face was full of gratitude, but the emotions in his eyes were somewhat complicated.

There is a big age gap between him and Xiao Xiao, so even though they are neighbors, they don't have much in common.

Later he left home, and there was even less contact between them.

The reason why he could remember the other person's identity immediately was because he was deeply impressed by the bullying incident that time, and also because this guy's personality was different from that of ordinary kids since he was a child.

Especially not like a little devil.

Especially not cute.

Unexpectedly, in the end, it was this person who had little interaction with me who helped me.

He has been working in society for quite some time.

He could naturally see that this guy was helping him only for the sake of his old man and old lady.

Otherwise, this guy probably wouldn't even look at him.

After all, what happened to him was his own fault.

Meng Jixi spoke again only after the footsteps outside the door could no longer be heard. "Master Xiao, I will call Brother Li from the bureau and ask him to check his identity for me."

"sorry to bother you."

Xiao Xiao nodded and smiled.

"You're welcome what?"

Meng Jixi waved his hand, "You have helped us several times."

"If it's your request, I don't think Dad would refuse Brother Li to do a little extra work."

After hanging up the phone, Meng Jixi made an "OK" gesture and said, "Okay, that's it."

"I will inform you as soon as the investigation results come out, Master Xiao."

"Thank you."

Xiao Xiao's mouth curled up.

The next morning, Meng Jixi came to the teahouse again.

Sitting in the same box as yesterday, Xiao Xiao pushed a seven-tenths full glass of tea in front of Meng Jixi.

After Meng Jixi drank a sip of tea, Xiao Xiao asked, "Any results?"

"Ah."

Meng Jixi put down his teacup and raised his eyebrows, "That big brother is not difficult to find out."

"but-"

Xiao Xiao seemed to realize something, "No problem?"

"Yes."

Meng Jixi confirmed Xiao Xiao's guess, "He is a smart guy."

"Mutansong is not the first victim."

"He would research his target beforehand, then appear beside them as a savior, lending them money unconditionally."

"If they really succeed and give him the money back, he won't do anything."

"But if he is like Mr. Mutansong yesterday, he will ask for a big sum."

"They won't be unable to pay it back, but they will be left with nothing."

“Is this considered giving others a way out?”

Meng Jixi shook his head, "Tsk tsk, what a good plan."

"So, some people who know the situation will still borrow money from him just to take a gamble."

"After all, borrowing money from that big brother is simple and interest-free, which is much better than borrowing money from a bank or a loan shark."

"Of course, the premise is that you succeed."

"That big brother also used this to win over many new business elites."

"His business is booming."

"As for those who failed-"

Meng Jixi spread his hands, "It's just that I was thrown into the quagmire and have to start all over again."

"As for whether they can get up, it depends on their own abilities."

“Some people want to make trouble.”

"But I can't make a fuss."

“They have no evidence.”

"The police couldn't file a case either." "That person is a big taxpayer and has many friends."

"Those who have been cheated can only accept their failure."

"However, some people who knew this would happen and still borrowed money deserved it."

"Who can I blame for my own incompetence?"

"People who don't know the situation might still lend money even if they know the situation, right?"

"Everyone has a gambler's mentality, especially those who want to start a business. They are ambitious and confident in themselves. Who would think they will fail at the beginning?"

Meng Jixi talked a lot. It was the first time he saw such a guy.

Not a completely good guy, nor a completely bad guy.

I can only say that he is a really great businessman.

He is also a disliked profiteer.

"Gulu~Gulu~"

I've talked so much that my throat is dry.

Meng Jixi raised the cup and took a few big gulps of tea.

The slightly bitter taste made him frown.

"Master Xiao, what do you want to do?"

He put down his teacup and asked curiously.

He had a hunch that Master Xiao wouldn't just let it go.

“I didn’t think about what to do.”

Xiao Xiao picked up the teacup and took a sip, with a look of innocence.

"I am a good young man who abides by the law."

Meng Jixi:
"Master Xiao, you are destroying the bridge after crossing it."

He was a little dissatisfied.

Xiao Xiao pushed the snacks on the table towards Meng Jixi and said, "Try it."

"The snacks in my house are delicious."

Even monsters like to eat it.

Meng Jixi took a bite of the snack angrily, then asked unwillingly, "Can't you reveal a little bit?"

Xiao Xiao also took a piece of tea and was about to put it in his mouth. When he heard Meng Jixi's question, he raised his eyebrows slightly and paused his actions, "Reveal what?"

Seeing the other party's suspicious look, he couldn't help but smile and said, "I just want to talk to him."

"After all, Gumuxuan is Grandpa Mu's life's work."

"Losing it was a huge blow to the old man."

Meng Jixi immediately had an expression that said, "You said you can't do anything."

He absolutely did not believe that what Master Xiao meant by "chat" was really just a chat.

However, he was happy to see it happen.

"Every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Since it is Mu Tansong who owes the debt, it is natural for him to pay it back himself."

"What do you mean by the son's debt must be paid by the father? You still think you are a three-year-old child."

"Master Xiao, do you need my help?"

Meng Jixi looked eager and excited.

Xiao Xiao:.
He glanced at Meng Jixi and said, "No need."

"You can't help."

Meng Jixi:
Even if it was the truth, "Master Xiao, you don't have to say the last sentence."

"Oh, really? I'll pay attention next time."

Xiao Xiao smiled somewhat nonchalantly.

Meng Jixi:
"Why do I feel that what you mean is that you won't pay attention next time either."

He muttered something under his breath.

"You think too much."

Meng Jixi was shocked by Xiao Xiao's answer, "Your ears are really sharp."

"Yeah, so next time you want to say something bad about me, stay away from me."

"Otherwise I would have heard it."

Meng Jixi looked a little embarrassed, but then he realized, "I didn't say anything bad about you."

Can't I just complain?
