Chapter 85: Money is the only thing that won't betray you

"Di-"

The sudden ringing of the cell phone scared Luo Qinghan so much that he bit Lin Yi's ear without controlling himself.

"Fuck!"

Lin Yi screamed in pain, raised his head suddenly, and bumped his head against Luo Qinghan's.

"Ouch."

"Sigh~"

Lin Yi was completely confused: What's going on? Why is the back of this chair so soft?

"drop--"

The phone was still ringing and vibrating.

Lin Yi didn't care about anything else and took out his phone first. When he saw it was Luo Ye, he answered the call: "What's the matter?"

"We encountered some problems with the design of the storefront, and the renovation team said it needs to be modified, so we called you to take a look."

The contact person for most matters is Luo Ye. Lin Yi never leaves any contact information, so if he encounters some minor problems, he is left to handle them on his own.

On the surface, Luo Ye is the boss and he is Luo Ye's partner, but Luo Ye just listens to him.

"Okay, I got it, I'll come over later."

Lin Yi hung up the phone and finally came to his senses. He found himself being held in Luo Qinghan's arms.

"Does your ear hurt?"

As soon as Lin Yi ended the call, Luo Qinghan stretched out his left hand and gently rubbed Lin Yi's ears twice.

"It doesn't hurt. I don't feel anything."

Compared to the pain, Lin Yi now feels that his ears are still wet.

"I have to go to the bar front, I'm leaving first."

Lin Yi stood up and prepared to leave. He would not procrastinate on important matters.

"Oh."

Luo Qinghan didn't say anything, just watched Lin Yi leave, but he felt a little disappointed inside.

She had just hugged Lin Yi for a while.

Luo Qinghan lay on the pillow that Lin Yi had just used to sleep and sighed: I'm so annoyed. I don't want to do anything. I just want to hug him.

Lin Yi rode his bike back to the bar front. Luo Ye asked Master Li, who was in charge of the decoration, to talk to Lin Yi.

"What's wrong? Hasn't this design been considered? What's the problem?"

Lin Yi's tone was not very friendly. This sudden change in the design plan was most likely an attempt to cheat people out of money.

Especially when old men in the industry see two young people, Lin Yi and Luo Ye, they want to do this even more. After all, young people are the easiest to deceive.

The fact was just as Lin Yi guessed, Master Li came here to change the design plan.

"Boss, when we were renovating, we found that the floor of this store is susceptible to moisture. If we use the flooring you requested, it might cause moisture and mold."

Lin Yi smiled slightly: "Don't worry about that, the floor I chose is moisture-proof."

"The moisture problem at the corners and edges of the wall also needs to be considered, otherwise it will be easy for water vapor to form when the tiles are attached there."

Lin Yi thought about it and realized that this was indeed something that needed some attention, and he didn't have any good solution.

"So what should we do?"

"We can put a layer of waterproof foam on the wall before laying tiles, so we don't have to worry about moisture. I happen to know what waterproof foam is."

Before Master Li finished speaking, Lin Yi interrupted him: "I know, someone will deliver the waterproof foam tomorrow."

"What about our extra labor costs?"

Lin Yi took out his phone and showed the contract signed by both parties to Master Li: "Master Li, we have already signed the contract. After the plan is finalized and construction begins, we will not pay any additional fees for any changes." "What?"

Before starting work, Master Li was asked by Lin Yi to sign a contract. This was the first time he had seen this in his more than 20 years of working in the decoration industry.

Who needs to sign a contract for installation?

At Lin Yi's insistence, he took a quick look at the contract and signed it after finding nothing unusual.

I just didn't expect there would be such a sentence in it.

Lin Yi looked at the dumbfounded Master Li, then smiled and continued, "But we can't let Master Li work in vain. We will settle the extra labor costs after the work is completed."

"Okay, okay."

Upon hearing this, Master Li nodded repeatedly.

It's impossible for this 20-year-old boy to fool people, right?

"Okay, you guys continue working. Mr. Luo and I will go buy some waterproof foam."

Lin Yi said to Master Li with a smile, and with his handsome appearance, he looked completely harmless.

Only Luo Ye knew that Lin Yi would definitely not be so kind.

Lin Yi sat in Luo Ye's car and asked him to take him to the building materials street to purchase waterproof foam again.

While driving, Luo Ye asked Lin Yi: "How are you going to pay those people the extra wages? This was not agreed upon at the beginning."

“I can pay whatever I want.”

"."

Luo Ye thought to himself, you are worthy of me.

"Then why are you still making promises to others? After all, we are also a business, it's not good to fool people like this, right?"

Lin Yi explained to Luo Ye: "I told him that I would pay him so that he would do his job well and not cut corners just because I don't pay him extra wages."

"As for deceiving people, does he have the nerve to accuse me? The original decoration design was determined according to my requirements after they inspected it. The waterproof foam was obviously dispensable."

"He also mentioned waterproof flooring. Isn't it because we brought all the materials ourselves and he didn't get any benefit from it, so he wanted to take the opportunity to make another fortune?"

Luo Ye understood what Lin Yi said: "Indeed, if we let them get the materials, who knows how much they can get from it."

"Boss Luo, the second rule of doing business is not to trust someone just because they are honest. The more honest they appear to be, the more you should be on guard."

Lin Yi took the chewing gum from Luo Ye’s car and put it in his mouth and chewed it.

"I understand that very well. There is such a person next to me."

Before starting a business with Lin Yi, Luo Ye thought that the other party was just the son of an official who had fallen into disgrace. In fact, he wanted to drag him into the business because he wanted to take advantage of his parents' relationship and ask for help.

He felt that he was already quite sinister, after all, he had taken advantage of Lin Yi.

Now I realize that I am still too young. Lin Yi is the one who is truly sinister and even cruel.

The most terrifying thing about Lin Yi is that if he shows anger, it means that there is still room for tact, or Lin Yi doesn't care. Just like the previous incident with Chu Sheng, Lin Yi knew that there would be no contact in the future, so he got angry.

But if Lin Yi smiled at you.

That's it. You never know when Lin Yi will stab you in the back.

"Secretary Lin, let me ask you one more question. What should we do if someone doesn't look like a good person?"

"You will subconsciously guard against this kind of thing, what else do you need?"

Lin Yi said leisurely while lying on the passenger seat: "To sum it up in one sentence, besides money, you have to be careful when interacting with people. Only money will not betray you."

"."

Although this may sound harsh, it seems to be true. Money in your pocket will not run away.
