762: Chapter 762: Colluding in Disgrace!

The Scum of the Earth!

At the teahouse entrance.

Ninth Master nodded and bowed as he opened the car door, hastily offering Zhonghua cigarettes.

A middle-aged man with a white shirt, black trousers, and a greasy pompadour got out of the car.

There was also a skinny man with glasses and an old fat woman.

Amidst laughter, Ninth Master led the three of them into the teahouse.

They made no effort to hide, heading directly to an air-conditioned room next to the street window to play mahjong.

Meanwhile, the driver drove a short distance to the side of the road, did not turn off the engine, and watched videos on his phone with the air conditioning on.

Inside the SUV.

Yu Hui had already adjusted the laser eavesdropping device and started using it.

This device was even more advanced, emitting a laser beam onto the window glass and then receiving the reflected laser.

By utilizing the principle that sound can easily cause mirror surfaces to vibrate, spectroscopic analysis is performed on the emitted and received lasers to decode changes in the light pattern and obtain the sound.

Although it’s claimed to be effective within a kilometer, it works best within a hundred meters.

The parking spot of the SUV was less than fifty meters away from Ninth Master’s air-conditioned mahjong room.

Therefore, after amplifying and restoring the electrical signal, the sound was exceptionally clear.

It felt as if one were right there, eavesdropping inside the private room.

Amidst the rustling sounds,

The four were rolling dice to determine their seats.

People who often played cards did this, superstitiously believing that different seats brought different luck.

So, by rolling dice, they arranged their seats according to the points scored.

“Aiyo, Dean Kong has the east seat tonight, a good omen!”

Dean Kong, wearing the white shirt with the pompadour, laughed heartily as he sat down first, saying in an official manner,

“I’ll see to it that tonight I’ll beat you all until you’re beaten black and blue!”

Ninth Master chuckled and said, “That’s not necessarily true!

Director Miao is sitting in the south, and she’s never lost before!”

The ‘fat woman’ Director Miao, with her head held high and full of fighting spirit, took her seat.

“Dean Kong, I won’t be merciful tonight!”

Ninth Master approached the skinny man with a smile and said warmly, “Chief Yu, why don’t you take the north seat?

The night before last, you won money sitting in the north!”

“Sure!”

Chief Yu squinted his eyes, a cigarette at an angle in his mouth, sat down, and rolled up his sleeves, ready to battle it out until dawn.

…

Inside the SUV.

Wu Jie was ‘eavesdropping’ while comparing the information of Handong City Children’s Welfare Institute.

The Auxiliary Business Association’s sponsorship data was extremely detailed, including organizational structure, geographical location, leadership information, and funding details.

After a facial comparison, he confirmed that the three were indeed from the welfare institute.

Looking at this,

The situation became quite simple.

Ninth Master knew how to curry favor and was adept at flattery.

Encountering the greedy and gambling-prone Dean Kong and his two companions made it natural for them to collude in their misdeeds, hand in glove.

Four people had inevitably formed a small clique of interests, with Ninth Master able to save more than ten thousand yuan a day on purchases.

It’s possible that they didn’t kick back directly to Dean Kong and the other two, but by deliberately losing money in card games, they could channel those benefits.

Add to that the gifts and red envelopes handed out during holidays and festivals.

With such people skills, the plum job of the welfare institute’s procurement officer naturally belonged to him alone.

And from “eavesdropping” on them while they played mahjong and bragged, Wu Jie realized he had seriously underestimated them.

“Dean Kong, our big financier has been releasing quite a lot of good news lately!”

Chief Yu, who was skinny and sinister-looking, as one could tell at first glance he wasn’t a good egg, said mockingly,

“I saw on the news that Tanglong Industrial Group is the major shareholder of Tianyuan Green Energy Auto, oh boy, they’re about to make a fortune!”

Director Miao asked with a smile, “What fortune?

How much?”

Chief Yu exclaimed,

“Hey!

You don’t know?

They’ve come up with an amazing graphene composite battery, which makes the performance of electric vehicles not the slightest bit inferior to fuel vehicles!”

“On the day of the new car launch, they received reservations for over a million units.

I heard that in the future, all government official vehicles will be switched to their electric cars, and this applies to taxis and ride-hailing vehicles as well!”

“One car sells for four hundred thousand, they make a hundred thousand per car.

Millions of cars would mean hundreds of billions in gross profits, not to mention they’re setting up battery swap stations…”

Suddenly, Ninth Master interjected, “Are you talking about the battery swap station next to the old guesthouse, built by that Liuli Continent Green Energy Industry company?

I’ve seen it; it looks like a gas station, but not a single car has gone there to swap batteries!”

Chief Yu cursed with a laugh,

“Bullshit!

That company is also under the group.

And in our rural county-level city, it’s just a symbolic build.

There isn’t a single electric car in all of Handong City yet, who the hell is going to swap batteries?”

“But I guess sooner or later our city will have them.

Maybe one day, our welfare institute’s official cars will also be switched to pure electric!”

Director Miao was amazed.

“Oh my God!

Then…

then how are we going to skim off gas money in the future?”

“Before, for an official car that needs four hundred yuan worth of gas, you could just put in three hundred, and use the other hundred for a private car.

But if it’s battery swapping…

it can’t just be swapping two batteries, can it?”

Dean Kong slightly narrowed his eyes and smiled faintly.

He had the air of an enlightened monk, as if he had seen through everything.

“You guys, stop thinking about such petty gains!

Take a look at Tanglong Industrial Group, how generous they are!”

“They’ve conjured up a big business with an annual output value of trillions overnight.

A mere seven or eight hundred yuan is nothing in their eyes!”

Ninth Master raised his thumb in praise,

“Dean Kong’s analysis is insightful.

Since our welfare institute is now backed by a financial giant, we shouldn’t be thinking about skimming money off fuel anymore!”

Director Miao shot Ninth Master a sideways glance.

“What’s up, Jiu?

You’re a procurement officer, making over ten thousand a day, and you’re still not satisfied?”

Ninth Master answered with a naive smile, “Isn’t this just me trying to figure out a little benefit for everyone?

To really make money, we’ve got to get into construction projects!”

“Construction?

Build what?” Chief Yu mumbled, “Canteens, dormitories, sports fields, walls, and the like, all the repairs and construction are done.

The money we’ve kicked back from the contractors has been collected too.

What other profit is there to make?”

Director Miao laughed, “Construction projects are no longer feasible, but it seems we can still do something with material procurement!”

At that moment, Dean Kong said with a smile,

“I see that in big cities, foreign language schools are all teaching with tablets now.

We’re in the age of the internet after all.

Our welfare institute should also keep up with the times and set up a few multimedia classrooms, don’t you think?”

Chief Yu and the other two were stunned, then they all burst into hearty laughter.

“Yeah!

Dean Kong is brilliant!”

“Kong is far-sighted and meticulous!”

“I’ll write the application report for this matter.

When it comes to bidding, we’ll operate a little and squeeze out a good amount of profit!”

However…

Dean Kong shook his head slightly and chuckled:

“You three are really too narrow-minded.

Is a multimedia classroom enough?

You still need to buy software and hire teachers!”

“With such hot weather, the kids need to learn swimming.

Don’t we have to build a swimming pool?

That means we must also buy equipment and hire coaches!”

“It’s not good for the children to stay in the courtyard all the time.

Shouldn’t we buy a couple of school buses to take them out on trips occasionally?”

“Once you go on a trip, won’t there be expenses for eating, drinking, and accommodations?

And the school buses will need fuel and maintenance, right?”

…

“In short, you need to broaden your thinking and consider the children’s needs more carefully!”

“As long as their needs are met, can’t we then apply for funding from Tanglong Industrial Group?”

“A company with a market value of over ten trillion and an annual profit of over a hundred billion wouldn’t care about our little bit of rain, would they?”

Dean Kong’s words made Director Miao and the others beam with joy, as if they could already see bundles of cash in their hands.

Little did they know.

In the SUV across the street.

Wu Jie listened very carefully, catching every single detail.

“The bolder people are, the greedier they become!

This skill of fabricating reasons to embezzle funds is really impressive!”

Yu Hui muttered disdainfully by his side, “If you ask me, the Auxiliary Business Association should really assign someone to watch over the Welfare Institute to see who dares to play tricks!”

Wu Jie hummed with a chuckle.

“Would watching over them be useful?

Didn’t you hear just now?

They all start from the children’s needs and apply for funding with legitimate reasons!”

“As long as they have power in their hands, they will always find a way to make money.

To completely eradicate such behavior is not easy!”

And at that moment.

In the air-conditioned mahjong room, an even more bizarre conversation ensued.

“That Tanglong Industrial Group, really, they only take care of the kids and don’t consider the staff at our Welfare Institute!”

“Yeah!

Taking care of kids is hard work.

It wouldn’t be too much to ask for a monthly allowance of a thousand or two, would it?”

“Hard work?

Is playing mahjong hard work?

Haha!”

“Chief Yu is actually right, our economy in Handong City isn’t developed, but damn, the living costs are high.

We could consider applying for subsidies!”

“Do I get some, too?

I work hard going to the market every day to purchase supplies!”

“Get lost!

You’re earning over ten thousand a day – you still want a subsidy?

Why don’t you shoot for the moon?”

“It’s the Group’s money – why not take it if it’s free!”

…

Listening to these conversations almost set Wu Jie off.

If it weren’t for the teahouse being too crowded, he’d have really wished to bust in and execute every damned one of them.

They were scum!

Not satisfied with embezzling the children’s charitable donations, they schemed for more money under various pretexts, and now they even had the nerve to want subsidies!

Have they gone mad for money?

Have they lost all conscience?

Yu Hui had thought to say something comforting, but seeing Wu Jie’s resolute anger, he stayed silent, fearing to set him off.

Whipping out his phone, Wu Jie called Tang Xiao.

After all, the Auxiliary Business Association was established jointly by the couple, and Tang Xiao particularly valued charitable work.

After recounting what he had seen and heard, Tang Xiao didn’t fly into a rage.

Instead, she asked Wu Jie not to act rashly and to have Yu Hui send her the recordings he had made.

President Tang did not blow up?

Was this the calm before the storm?

Yu Hui didn’t dare to think too much and immediately sent some of the recorded files he had prepared to Tang Xiao.

A quick glance…

Nearly scared the wits out of Yu Hui.

Wu Jie pulled a pistol from his shoulder bag and was meticulously checking the bullets.

“Mr.

Wu…

Mr.

Wu, please be calm.

Such scumbags are not worth you taking action!

Murder is against the law…”

Yu Hui’s words were cut short by the badge Wu Jie flashed, silencing his attempt to persuade.

Licensed to kill, act first and report later…

get acquainted?

Yu Hui’s heart skipped a beat, feeling a bit lost.

After being a subordinate for so long, he had never imagined Wu Jie had such a status.

Why bother persuading at all!

Click!

The magazine slid into the gun, making a sharp noise.

Yu Hui moved his lips, his gaze somewhat vacant.

“Boss, I have no problem with you taking action, but there are too many people in the teahouse, and that could cause trouble.

How about finding another place to do it?”

Wu Jie scoffed.

“Don’t worry about it.

I’m not willing to use the gun anyway!

Firing a shot means writing a report, and I hate writing reports the most!”

Yu Hui’s lips twitched slightly: “Then what are you…”

“Routine maintenance!

To prevent accidental discharge,” Wu Jie said nonchalantly.

Yu Hui let out a long sigh of relief.

He was truly afraid that Wu Jie would storm in, unable to contain his rage, and annihilate those four pieces of trash.

At that time.

Conversation continued among Ninth Master and the others.

It was all about how to save money and turn a profit.

Chief Yu even suggested that the Welfare Institute used to function without air conditioning, so why should the kids use it now and waste electricity?

Why not buy mining rigs and mine cryptocurrencies like blockchain and Bitcoin?

With electricity used up, they could claim it was spent on air conditioning for the kids.

After all, a single cryptocurrency could be worth thousands of Gold Coins, and mining them meant cash!

It wasn’t long before.

Tang Xiao called Wu Jie.

“Just killing off these scumbags would be letting them off too lightly.

Aren’t you the King of Tricksters?

Show your skills and properly deal with them.

I’ll have your back no matter what happens!”

Wu Jie laughed: “What do you mean you’ll have my back?

Even if I killed them, so what?

I want to know if the Welfare Institutes in other places receiving aid are the same.

Is there a way to completely prevent this kind of behavior!”

“We’ll think of a solution later.

Those four scumbags need to be dealt with tonight!” Tang Xiao spoke emphatically.
