Chapter 1, A Sudden Calamity

I pushed him a bit, feeling a surge of anger, but I didn't dare to offend the client, so I lowered my head and pretended to be meek. Old Wu suddenly embraced the girl and joked, "Sister, what number are you? Tell your mommy that you are accompanying me today."

The young woman probably knows that she is in the wrong, so she goes around to each person in the private room to toast them one by one

I have been working at Xianghui for over a year, and I have encountered all kinds of clients. This is not the first time such a situation has occurred. At that moment, I smiled and said I understood, understood, and that I would make arrangements and call you back.

Having received the promise, I let out a sigh of relief. Under the persuasion and commotion of those around me, I drank a few more cups, feeling dazed and uncomfortable in my stomach. I intended to get up to go to the restroom, but at that moment, the door to the private room was suddenly pushed open by someone.

At that moment, the old drivers, including Old Ma, had already begun to make advances on the princess they had ordered, their hands even reaching inside her clothes. Suddenly, the door swung open, startling everyone, including myself. However, to my surprise, the one who entered was a very beautiful girl, with skin as white as milk. Especially her long legs immediately overshadowed the other girls in the private room.

With this opportunity, I entered the field of chemical sales. Having endured many hardships in the past, I worked diligently and was eager to learn. Additionally, my fellow townsman was willing to teach me, and I possessed a good understanding. After more than a year, I quickly grew to become a key member of the sales department in this Taiwanese-funded enterprise

After that, I worked for a period of time at a lighting factory in Xiangshan and a circuit board factory in Zhucheng, although neither lasted long. During that time, I finally understood the hardships of striving for a living outside, and I also realized that my mother's tears and my father's sighs were not without reason

Old Wu from the procurement department had a bit too much to drink, and upon seeing the young lady dressed in a KTV princess uniform, he, emboldened by alcohol, approached her, grabbed her hand, and dragged her to the sofa, insisting on drinking with her

This is to ask me to help arrange for a girl

The most detestable thing is that the little girl whom I helped chose to stand on the side of the head of the security department

Before I could even understand what was happening, I was pinned to the ground. Immediately, someone next to me said: "The several deceased in the private room were with him..."

At that time, I replied that I was here to serve all the leaders, and that it was sufficient as long as you all enjoyed your drinks

The young ladies have arrived, engaging in singing, playing games, and encouraging drinking, creating quite a lively atmosphere. I hurriedly discussed contract procurement matters with several leaders. Since I had arranged everything well, the leaders were very pleased, especially the head of the procurement department, who confidently patted his chest and said there was no problem, allowing me to come directly to his office tomorrow to sign the contract.

I can endure hardship and fatigue, but I cannot tolerate the filth behind the scenes

The young woman blushed and said, "Boss, I do not do this."

The term "游侠儿" originates from Wang Changling's poem "塞上曲": "The cicadas sing in the empty mulberry forest, the desolate path of the Xiao Pass in August. Exiting and re-entering the frontier, everywhere is yellow reed grass. Since ancient times, the guests of Youbing have all aged amidst dust and sand. Do not emulate the wanderers, who boast of their fine purple steeds." It refers to those who, relying on their bravery and valuing loyalty, disdain life.

I stayed in Yangcheng for more than two months, borrowing a place at a relative's home of a middle school classmate. Later, I moved around to Dongguan, the Special Economic Zone, Xiangshan, and Zhucheng, taking on five different jobs. My first job was as a general worker in a shoe factory in Panyu alongside that middle school classmate, where I was involved in tasks such as applying glue, fitting, polishing, and transferring materials. It was both dirty and exhausting, and by the end of the day, my back would be so sore that I could hardly stand straight. I managed to endure for two weeks before I could no longer bear it. After that, I worked at a small restaurant washing dishes and serving, but I lost that job due to a dispute with a customer.

In order to secure this contract, I found a budget hotel nearby and have been residing in Houjie.

The first time I heard the name "Ranger Alliance" was in the summer of 1998

The master he mentioned is my fellow townsman, Lao Jin, and as soon as I heard this, I immediately understood

After hanging up the phone, I immediately called the company. It is not that I am unable to make arrangements; rather, during this past week and more in Houjie, I have nearly exhausted my available funds. If there is indeed a need to make any arrangements, I will certainly have to apply to the company for approval.

During that week, I was constantly trying to persuade key individuals. The first was, of course, the head of the procurement department, and the second was the supervisor of the wet processing workshop responsible for communication. Once I secured these two, the remaining task was to deal with a few deputy positions who were closely associated with them. Naturally, socializing over meals and drinks was unavoidable during this time. Additionally, discussions regarding the amount of kickbacks and their distribution had to take place, and these conversations needed to be conducted discreetly, without being overt or too explicit.

Old Wu, while pulling people into his embrace, reached out to touch their pert buttocks, grinning as he said: "Oh, did you just come out of the sea? Why are you being so coy? It's nothing, once is unfamiliar, twice is familiar..."

I had a request for someone, so naturally, I agreed to everything. After a while, a group of young women arrived, around fifteen or sixteen of them, filling the small private room to capacity.

Fortunately, during my studies, I majored in a field related to chemistry. During my six-month tenure at a cement factory, I learned a great deal from the senior engineer. With this experience, while working at a circuit board factory in Zhucheng, I developed a good relationship with an old acquaintance who was a supplier of chemical solutions. He held me in high regard and invited me to work at a chemical solutions company located in the special economic zone.

After nearly a week of efforts, the supervisor of the wet processing workshop at that factory, Old Ma, called me to say that the discussions have progressed significantly. However, the head of the procurement department has expressed that we still lack a bit of sincerity on our side

People conduct their affairs openly; even if Lao Ma and the others are unwilling, they do not dare to cause a scene and instead return to drinking. Meanwhile, I go outside to use the restroom

It is said that the most important thing is that our funding is limited. While we can say anything to the clients, I cannot act recklessly on my side, lest it becomes difficult to explain during the audit. After all, we are a Taiwanese-funded company, and I believe many people understand the frugality of our island's bosses.

In 1998, around the Spring Festival, my fellow townsman became the section chief of the sales department. I also rose along with him, as my performance was outstanding. Additionally, the deputy manager in charge of sales, a Taiwanese named Tai Ge, held me in high regard, which led to my exceptional promotion as one of the three deputy section chiefs.

However, I do not regret anything. The conflict I had with the head of the security department stemmed from his inappropriate behavior towards the young women in the workshop. I stood up for them, but in the end, it turned into an accusation against me of attempting to act improperly and having a lack of decorum.

After all, if this order can be successfully completed, the company will be able to earn a considerable profit

He had been entangled with that girl for quite a while. I couldn't bear to watch any longer and was about to step forward when unexpectedly, Old Ma and the head of the procurement department also came over to tease, getting a bit hands-on. At that moment, the door swung open, and a man with blonde hair entered, his eyes squinted and his nose hooked like an eagle's. Upon seeing the commotion, he hurried over to mediate, then called for a waiter, opened a bottle of what appeared to be very fine foreign wine, and offered a toast to each of the five of us in the private room, making sure to save face before leading everyone away.

Old Ma and the others selected two batches, both choosing princesses to accompany them for drinks. When they saw that I had not chosen anyone, they asked me why.

I asked Old Ma, is my sincerity still insufficient? In one week, I have eaten seafood twice

In the evening, I invited the head of the procurement department, Jin Xin, and Lao Ma, along with their two deputies, to dinner at the Cantonese restaurant on the second floor of the Golden Prince. These individuals did not come primarily for the meal; after a simple dinner, we proceeded to the karaoke on the fourth floor. I am not very familiar with this place, but fortunately, these leaders are experienced and well-acquainted with the surroundings. After greeting the head waitress, we entered a private room, where they expressed the desire to sing a few songs before attending to business.

After becoming the deputy section chief, I worked even harder, traveling everywhere to promote our products, successfully securing several large contracts, which significantly reduced the criticism directed at the company, especially towards the sales department

While in the restroom, the effects of the alcohol surged, and I could not hold back any longer. I embraced the toilet and began to vomit uncontrollably, the sound was quite chaotic. Not only did I expel the dinner from that evening, but I also brought up bile. The stench of the vomit was overwhelming, and it only made me want to vomit more. I nearly collapsed in the restroom.

The tall and beautiful woman must have walked into the wrong private room. Upon seeing everything inside, she repeatedly apologized and prepared to leave

Old Ma laughed on the other end of the phone, saying that after all, it is the young people who are still lacking a bit of maturity; otherwise, why not go back and ask your master

I looked up and saw several men in police uniforms running towards me

Lao Jin has been in this line of work for many years, and I am his apprentice whom he personally trained. After listening to the situation, he did not make things difficult for me and directly transferred the funds to me.

As soon as the funds were received, I immediately informed Lao Ma that I was hosting a banquet at the most famous Jin Taizi nearby, asking him to assist in inviting a few leaders

Old Wu from the procurement department pushed me aside and said, "What are you pretending to be? She is the one who does this, do you want to be pitied?"

At that time, I had already spent two years in the south. After graduating from secondary vocational school, my parents used their connections to secure me a position as a technician in the testing department of a state-owned cement factory under Songcheng in Liling. I was considered to have a job and felt quite proud of myself. However, unexpectedly, within less than six months, I was ostracized for offending the head of the security department. I was young and impulsive, and in a fit of anger, I resigned, abandoning my stable job. Under my parents' heartbroken admonitions, I moved south to Yangcheng.

In dealing with clients, every industry has its own methods; cats have their ways, and mice have their paths. In our line of work, there are only two key strategies: the first is kickbacks, and the second is to serve clients well, especially key clients

She was drinking beer, Jinwei Chunseng. After a bit of commotion, four glasses were emptied, and she became somewhat dazed. When it was time for her to toast me, I said, "That's enough, my dear. You can go back now; there's no need to drink with me."

After I finally finished vomiting, feeling completely drained, I washed up at the sink and was about to return to the private room when I heard a woman in the distance shout, "That's him"

In June, I was stationed in Hojie, Dongguan, preparing to conquer a circuit board factory called Jinxin Electronics. This is a large factory with over 2,000 employees, and several workshops have a significant demand for chemical solutions. The previous supplier was our competitor; however, due to personnel changes at the senior management level that year, the quality of their chemical solutions declined. Additionally, the supervisor of the wet process workshop at this factory had some connections with Lao Jin, which provided us with an opportunity.

What, the deceased
