Chapter 10: A Small Test of Skills

In fact, there is a variety of information regarding document processing available on the streets, but Song Weiyang is afraid of being deceived; encountering a scam would not be enjoyable at all

"Haha, everyone prosper!" Zheng Xuehong waved gracefully, striding forward with a proud belly

At that moment, several joint defense personnel arrived, panting, and asked: "En Jiu, do these two have a problem?"

The address on the note is a certain village, which will eventually become an urban village in the special zone, but for now, it can only be considered as part of the outskirts

"I live not far from Shangsha Village," Zheng Xuehong began to complain, "Finding a house in Shenzhen is truly difficult; even with money, one cannot rent in the urban area. Can you believe that I, a director, with over 100,000 yuan invested in business, can only live in the countryside of the Special Economic Zone? I don't even dare to tell my friends when I go back; it's too embarrassing! Comrade, don't you think this is the case?"

The young woman held the bowl and gratefully said: "I am full, thank you, sister-in-law"

Indeed, the community patrol officer found it quite useful and casually asked, "Do you live around here?"

Now it is the vendor's turn to be worried: "What if you run away?"

How much is one? asked Song Weiyang.

Zheng Xuehong, feeling apprehensive, muttered: "Damn it, it's just like dealing with bandits"

Song Weiyang said: "I am not only handling the certification, but I also want to create some other items, which will cost at least a thousand yuan. If the person you introduce is reliable and the items produced are beautiful, I will not only pay the agency fee, but I can also give you a red envelope of 200 yuan. Just let me know if you are willing; I am engaged in a big business and I am not short of that little money."

Zheng Xuehong remained equally unperturbed, and without waiting for the other party to speak, he took the initiative to greet: "Good morning!"

It was already noon when we entered the village, and every household was having their meal

What would you like to carve? the vendor asked

Brother, that is refreshing!

The joint defense personnel seemed to have lost track of the person, looking around in all directions. Upon seeing Song Weiyang and Zheng Xuehong, this fellow, not one to miss an opportunity, quickly approached to prepare for questioning

The members of the joint defense team received cigarettes, and upon seeing they were Zhonghua brand, they immediately became familiar with each other. The leader said, "I am familiar with the joint defense team in Shangsha Village. If anything happens in the future, just report my name, Niu Jianguo."

"I knew you were no good," the stall owner cast a disdainful glance at Song Weiyang, then cautiously looked around and said in a low voice, "I want to collect a commission fee"

"As expected of a leader, their speech is indeed of a high caliber." The joint defense personnel are almost floating away

Song Weiyang, who had received the receipt, did not leave. He picked up a sample of the private seal from the stall and casually asked, "Boss, do you know someone who handles certificates?"

Stop, do not run!

The vendor laughed in anger: "I pay a considerable amount to the joint defense every month at this stall. Am I going to abandon my stall and run away just to cheat you out of 10 yuan? Are you foolish or am I foolish? If you don't believe me, I can write you a receipt."

"500 yuan," said the vendor

The joint defense officer took the cigarette and placed it in his mouth, cursing, "They are all damn rats, truly adept at burrowing."

Suddenly, a middle-aged woman walked out of the room and said to Chen Tao: "Sister, are you full? If not, shall I serve you another bowl?"

The vendor said: "Put down the paper, pay a deposit of 10 yuan, and come back tomorrow to collect it"

Song Weiyang took out a piece of paper, on which were drawn two official seals, containing the words "Zhengda Technology Co., Ltd." and "South China Branch of the China Private Enterprise Development Promotion Association"

After watching the play for a long time, Song Weiyang quickly pretended to be youthful and cute, smiling and saying: "Hello, brothers, you were truly impressive just now!"

Song Weiyang passed by a household and saw a woman squatting at the door, engrossed in her meal. He immediately approached her to ask for directions: "Excuse me, where does Da Tou Bin live?"

Zheng Xuehong patted the shoulder of the community defense officer and said in an official tone: "Comrade, you have worked hard, putting in great effort early in the morning. The number of migrants in the special zone is increasing, and public security is quite poor, relying entirely on your community defense team to maintain order"

"50 yuan, I will carve two official seals." Song Weiyang negotiated.

Song Weiyang remained calm and smiled as he said to Zheng Xuehong, "Director Liu, it's up to you now"

Song Weiyang said: "Are you bullying outsiders?"

Zheng Xuehong's tone is marked by a rhythmic rise and fall: "Why else would it be called a special zone? Even you members of the joint defense team are all sharp and capable. When it comes to actual combat, you can directly head to the front lines to fight and serve the country."

Thank you, I will give you a big red envelope later. Song Weiyang smiled and carefully put away the note

... ...

Zheng Xuehong immediately lit a cigarette and said: "Comrades, you have worked hard. My name is Liu Huateng, and this is my nephew Ma Qiangdong"

Having witnessed the basic operations of the partners, Song Weiyang felt more confident about the future of their fraudulent enterprise and said with a smile, "Then let's act separately and reconvene in the evening"

The vendor said: "For 10 yuan, I will carve three for you, but they will be private seals"

... ...

The vendor shook his head repeatedly: "There are too many characters, an additional fee is required"

The members of the joint defense team warmly bid farewell: "Director Liu, safe travels, and may you achieve great wealth!"

"60 yuan, if you don't do it, I'll find someone else," Song Weiyang said

These joint defense team members are all focused on apprehending individuals based on their clothing. Whenever they see someone dressed in tattered and shabby attire, they inevitably approach to question them. The consequences for those unable to produce a temporary residence permit can be quite severe

The two walked side by side through the alley, and after not going far, they encountered a community patrol officer coming towards them

Song Weiyang and Zheng Xuehong were already dressed in suits, unlike those who are too stingy to spend money on temporary residence permits. When Director Zheng spoke, he exuded a commanding presence, leaving the joint defense personnel with no doubts. They immediately echoed, "That is indeed the case; everything is in high demand in the special zone, and all the houses in the city have long been rented out. It's not just you as a director; even the county head would have to stay in the countryside. The special zone is different from the outskirts."

Zheng Xuehong put away the cigarette case, chatted a bit more, and said with a smile, "I still have a business deal to discuss, let's talk again next time, and I will treat everyone to drinks!"

Generally, generally. I have received mayors before, so why should I be afraid of these few insignificant people? Zheng Xuehong was in high spirits

"Do you want to deceive me? They still need to practice for another twenty years. Let's go, Director Liu!" Song Weiyang waved his hand and left.

The woman, upon hearing Song Weiyang's voice, immediately looked up and exclaimed, "Brother Ma!"

Over there, over there, quickly stop him

The stall owner thought carefully for a moment and concluded that this deal could be made. Even if Song Weiyang ran off without paying, he would not incur any losses. He quickly wrote a note, handed it to Song Weiyang, and said: "Take this and go to find someone named Da Tou Bin at the address. Just say that I, Hu Jinfan, referred you."

Early in the morning, Song Weiyang stepped out and encountered a group of joint defense team members, who chased a few young men resembling migrant workers, causing them to flee in panic.

Zheng Xuehong took out a box of Zhonghua cigarettes, specifically meant for making an impression, and handed one over, asking: "Did you not catch anyone?"

"It is illegal to carve a public seal, and it will cost more," said the vendor

The liaison officer was taken aback for a moment and instinctively nodded: "Good morning"

Song Weiyang followed behind, giving a thumbs up and quietly praised: "Director Liu is impressive"

"How many times have I said, don't call me En Jiu," the joint defense officer pointed at Zheng Xuehong and introduced, "This is the director from outside the pass, living in Shangsha Village, a really nice person, so please take care of her in the future"

Song Weiyang scratched his head, is this girl here to beg for alms

Run again and I will break your legs

Zheng Xuehong advised, "Be cautious in all matters, and do not let those who forge certificates deceive you"

"How about 10 yuan?" Song Weiyang said

The prices in the special zone are high. The vendor did not even lift his head, continuing to carve the seal.

"Are you the Chen... Chen Tao on the train?" Song Weiyang was a bit confused about the situation

Yes, it's me!" The young lady nodded repeatedly

"It is possible, but you must obtain the certificate first," said Song Weiyang

Song Weiyang walked leisurely with a bag in hand, having only about one hundred yuan on him, as the rest of his money had already been deposited in the bank. Even if those who were maliciously intent on obtaining his identification documents were to act, they would not be able to gain much.

Song Weiyang said, "You wouldn't run away with the money, would you?"

"We need to get a fake temporary residence permit, otherwise, it will inevitably lead to problems," Song Weiyang expressed with concern.

In the late morning, Song Weiyang approached a seal carving stall, squatted down, and asked, "Boss, do you carve official seals here?"
