Chapter 24: Two Ten Thousand Yuan, Must Give!

  Thinking back to the days when he was tormented by credit card debt, unable to live or die, with banks constantly calling him for money. Li Xiaoteng felt like it was a past life!

  When it comes to the drawbacks of credit cards, it seems like everyone can come up with a lot. Before Li Xiaoteng was reborn, as a credit card staff member, he couldn't wait to open a credit card and give away a bunch of things. Once, one of Li Xiaoteng's subordinates applied for a credit card. After activation, they consumed a bottle of Coke, and the next day, the credit card staff came over with gifts in a flurry.

  When giving gifts, it just so happened that Li Xiaoteng saw it. A jet-black IBM keyboard. The curved design and compact keys made Li Xiaoteng look lovingly at it. And now, Li Xiaoteng, who was looking at the "heavenly being" in front of him, couldn't help but sigh.

  "Filled out the form and photocopied my ID today! Can it really be done as soon as the day after tomorrow? How can there be such a good thing in this world? The little Wen who previously said that it couldn't be handled is now saying that it can be handled?" Li Xiaoteng thought to himself.

  Li Xiaoteng asked: "Miss Bian, didn't we say that this credit card couldn't be handled? How can it suddenly be processed now?"

  Miss Pan mysteriously leaned in close to Li Xiaoteng and whispered: "I mentioned your situation to our leader. Our leader..."

  Just as I said that, two little beauties with crisp voices said: "Uncle, we want to cook these spicy hot pots, can you help us get the ingredients?" From their accents, I could tell they were two little beauties from Sichuan.

  Li Xiaoteng shook his head helplessly and said, "Wait a minute!" He had just taken over the plates from the two little beauties. Then he saw Zhao Baozi swaying back! Li Xiaoteng hurriedly beckoned him to come over and said, "Dong Ge, hurry up and help me out. I have some business to discuss!"

  He casually threw the ingredients into the pot and turned around to lead Miss Bian to the table inside.

  Inside the crowded food stall, the increasingly excited crowd grew noisier. Li Xiaoteng took out two bottles of Coke from Dongxing Restaurant and handed one to Xiao Bian. He asked: "Miss Bian! Has your leader agreed to approve my credit card application?"

  Miss Bian nodded while twisting her Coke and said, "It's not that our leader agreed to approve it for you. It's just that we have a good relationship with the credit card center leaders of Jiangsu Bank and Beijing Development Bank. Our leader said, special situations require special treatment, right?" After finishing speaking, Miss Bian took a sip of her Coke.

  Li Xiaoteng looked at Xiao Bian's face, that bloody big mouth was spraying saliva stars, feeling a lot of pressure. Just thinking about asking for details, he heard Xiao Bian say: "However, Mr. Li! Although this is a special situation, if our leader uses his connections to help you with it, it will be more troublesome, and you need to pay some blood, give some handling fees."

  As expected, Li Xiaoteng naturally understood and nodded: "Of course, we can't let our leaders work in vain. The meaning is self-evident. Everyone is a savvy person, but what about the amount of this handling fee?"

  Miss Bai held a Coke in one hand and stretched out her little finger like a small stick, shaking it at Li Xiaoteng.

  Li Xiaoteng took a look and was pleased. Not because of the small thumb like a stick, but because he felt that the cost was not unacceptable.

  "Miss Bian, one thousand yuan. I, Li Xiaoteng, can still afford it!" Just then, Xiao Bian's small eyes suddenly enlarged N times. She said: "You're all from the same vine, why are you pretending to be a golden calabaza with me? Ten thousand!"

  Li Xiaoteng was speechless, and saw Zhao Baozi swaying back and forth with a plate of spicy hot pot, putting it on the table. Smiling and saying: "Teng brother, just now the rich and spicy hot pot, I don't know which customer ordered it. After paying the money, they didn't even come to pick it up! Just in time for your friend to try some."

  Li Xiaoteng's face turned dark, looking at Zhao Duanzi, then at the small Bian who was eating spicy hot pot with a pair of chopsticks like a whirlwind, an aura of murder suddenly filled the air.

  Zhao Pàngzi looked at Li Xiaoteng with a strange expression, but didn't say anything. He quickly ran away! Li Xiaoteng adjusted his emotions and asked Xiao Bian, who was eating blood tofu: "Miss Bian, if I apply, how many will be approved for me in total?"

  Xiao Bian casually picked up a piece of oil wheat and said, "One bank can approve two, so in total you can get four approved." After finishing speaking, he quickly stuffed the oil wheat into his mouth! Li Xiaoteng looked at Xiao Bian eating the oil wheat, feeling an urge to rush over and slap him, but instead restrained himself and asked, "How much is the quota?"

  Xiao Bian wiped his mouth and said: "Each card is 100,000. The development card in Beijing may be able to give up to 150,000. But I dare not guarantee it. That is to say, your two Beijing Development cards may total up to 300,000!"

  Li Xiaoteng felt like his body was hollowed out, a bit empty and also had a feeling of being on cloud nine. At the same time, he felt that the surrounding noise, chatter, and the sound of drinking games were very far away from him.

  After a while, he silently calculated in his heart that he could get at least 400,000. If the football betting was calculated with only one-time profit, he could also get a profit of 400,000. Deducting the handling fee of 10,000, after using it to repay himself, he didn't need to pay a single cent of handling fee!

  Li Xiaoteng was a little excited, but looking at Xiao Bian's eating and drinking face, he couldn't get excited no matter what.

  "When can I get the card?" Xiaobian looked at Li Xiaoteng and said: "I will personally follow up on your card, when the card is issued, I will go to the bank to pick it up and deliver it to you in person! At the latest, it will arrive in your hands by the day after tomorrow!"

  Li Xiaoteng calculated that there was almost a week's time left until April 11th. Time was more than enough! He nodded and said, "When will the handling fee be given?"

  Xiao Bian took a sip of Coke and said, "When do you fill out the form, when do you give us the handling fee!" Li Xiaoteng suddenly became anxious and said, "If we gave you the money, what if you don't handle the matter?"

  "Card is approved, quota is available, what if you don't give the money? If you're willing to do it, I'll fill out the form for you now and you pay! If not, I'll go back to our leader and this matter will be over!"

  It was as if he had eaten Li Xiaoteng, which made Li Xiaoteng very helpless. However, gritting his teeth, Li Xiaoteng still asked: "I filled out the form today, can I get the card the day after tomorrow?"

  Xiao Bian nodded and said: "That's right!" Li Xiaoteng suddenly felt a bit down, and said with a hint of compromise: "Miss Bian, I don't have enough cash on me now. Can it be tomorrow? What do you think?"

  "You fill out the form now, and I'll come to collect the money from you tomorrow morning! If it's not ready by then, at the latest, it has to be done the day after tomorrow! You think about it yourself!"

  Li Xiaoteng slapped his thigh and stretched out his hand saying: "Fill in the form!"

  The form was filled out quickly. Xiao Bian took out his digital camera and took a photo of Li Xiaoteng's ID card, found a copy shop that was still open, made a photocopy of the ID card, and had Li Xiaoteng sign it. After everything was ready, he put all the documents in his briefcase. They agreed to meet at 9 am the next day at Dongxing Restaurant. Xiao Bian was about to leave with a swagger.

  Suddenly, Li Xiaoteng pulled Zhao Baozi's hand and asked: "Dong Ge, do you want to take a photo?" As he said this, he glared at Xiao Bian's back. Zhao Baozi looked over and his forehead sweat became even more intense. He asked: "What for?"

  Li Xiaoteng whispered: "Hanging it around your neck can ward off evil!" Zhao Baozi speechlessly said: "Sticking it on the bed, how can you avoid pregnancy?"

  Watching the back of Xiao Bian, Li Xiaoteng suddenly felt a little anxious. He thought to himself: "What if this doesn't work out for me?" Then he shook his head and went to eat hot pot again.

  As the golden time arrived, the crowd on both sides of the night market street became more dense. Busy Zhao Baozi, who was in a hurry, looked at Li Xiaoteng leisurely stirring the hot pot and eating spicy skewers. He felt a little jealous and thought to himself: "This skillful guy is much more relaxed than me, this errand boy!" Suddenly, he lifted his head and saw Yang Biao walking towards him with a girl from afar, following the crowd.

  Just as the two of them had not yet approached, they heard Yang Biao's loud greeting: "Teng Ge, Dong Ge! Congratulations on getting rich!" Zhao Pu Zi hurriedly ran over and asked: "I haven't been able to contact you for several days, where did you run off to? We're so busy here! You didn't even come to help out!"

  Yang Biao said with a bit of helplessness, "These two days I accompanied our family's Shen Jia to New Malaysia and Thailand, didn't we just get back?" Li Xiaoteng was serving dishes to the guests while asking sideways, "New Malaysia and Thailand? Can't you stop bullshitting? In front of your girlfriend, I won't scold you!"

  Shen Jia smiled somewhat awkwardly: "Teng Ge, don't listen to Yang Biao's nonsense. If Xinjiekou, Ma Dian, and Beitaipingzhuang can be considered as Xin Ma Tai, I really have nothing to refute!"

  Yang Biao burst out laughing. He made a common gesture on the football field, with his hands clasped to his chest and then opening up with an innocent expression. Li Xiaoteng pretended not to see it, seeing that the spicy hot pot in his wok was almost ready, he quickly scooped it out and started preparing the seasonings.

  Zhao Pangzi was used to being very casual. Seeing a table of guests getting up to pay, he hurried over to collect the money and wipe down the table. As he was doing so, he shouted: "Biao Ge, come sit here!"

  Li Xiaoteng saw Shen Jia following Yang Biao, and naturally didn't dare to say anything more. After all, he understood the principle of giving his buddy face in front of his own woman!

  Li Xiaoteng had just handed over the spicy hot pot to the customer and was about to collect the money when Manager Dong walked out of the Northeast Restaurant and shouted at Li Xiaoteng, "Xiaoteng, I have some good news!"

  Li Xiaoteng's hand almost shook, fortunately didn't drop the plate. He thought to himself: "I'd better forget about this guy." Sighing in his heart. I'm afraid of hearing good news, and this good news will cost 10,000 yuan again!

  But Li Xiaoteng, who had to be clever with his words, shouted: "Manager Dong, please sit in your room. I'll go find you after I'm done..."
