rebirth from small pockets

"Have you ever thought about overturning the verdict for yourself?"

In the private room of the farmhouse, this is the first time this private room has been used after it was renovated.

There were no real private rooms in the farmhouse before, there were only a few small partitioned spaces, but the privacy was not strong.

Since the people who come here have changed from tasting delicious food at the beginning to business negotiations now, private rooms were created based on the needs of customers.

There are only three people in the private room at this moment, Chen Li~Zhang Ruolan and that Mu Xiaoqing.

From the appearance point of view, this Mu Xiaoqing has a strong strong female character.

But perhaps it is the experiences of the past two years that make this strong woman look somewhat downcast.

Although Mu Xiaoqing had obviously dressed up carefully today, she could not hide the trace of fatigue between her brows and eyes.

This is normal~ This means that Mu Xiaoqing has a strong psychological quality. If she had been in another person's situation, she would have completely collapsed.

At this time, Mu Xiaoqing was still looking for her own opportunity. In this aspect alone, she almost surpassed 99.99% of ordinary people in the world.

"No~!"

"I have thought about this issue before, but the other party's evidence is too strong."

"I can't provide enough evidence to prove my innocence. It's almost impossible to overturn the case!"

"And the other party didn't actually kill them all, otherwise my punishment wouldn't be so light."

Compared with Chen Li's curiosity about this matter, Mu Xiaoqing, the person involved, acted extremely calmly.

Moreover, what looked like a very serious punishment in Chen Li's eyes turned into a lighter punishment in Mu Xiaoqing's eyes.

But after thinking about it carefully, Chen Li seemed to understand that financial crimes these days are indeed not as severe as they would be twenty years later.

You must know that in twenty years' time, the fines for general financial crimes will always be in units of hundreds of millions. In comparison, Mu Xiaoqing's punishment is indeed relatively light.

"Didn't they all be killed?"

"Not necessarily~ Otherwise you wouldn't have lost your jobs one after another!"

"Come on, try this local chicken soup. This local chicken soup is our signature dish and everyone says it's good."

After Chen Li asked his question, he spooned a bowl of native chicken soup for Mu Xiaoqing.

"Thank you Mr. Chen~!"

"The other party did not kill them all. That's why I lost my job before."

Mu Xiaoqing took the local chicken soup handed over by Chen Li, bit her lip, and continued after a slight hesitation:

"It's just that some people don't want me to stay in the financial industry!"

"Oh~!"

Chen Li nodded and took a piece of cold chicken slices for himself.

He knew that what Mu Xiaoqing said was true, because the jobs that Mu Xiaoqing lost before were all related to the financial industry.

After all, Mu Xiaoqing's previous work experience has been in related industries, so she will naturally look for similar positions when changing jobs.

Although she is banned from the capital market, not all positions in the financial industry need to be banned from the capital market.

Unfortunately, as long as Mu Xiaoqing's work is related to the financial industry, she will be reported.

Although Mu Xiaoqing has a luxurious resume, almost no companies in the financial industry will hire someone with a criminal record. As long as the company knows about Mu Xiaoqing's criminal record, almost no one will give Mu Xiaoqing a chance to prove her abilities.

As for why Mu Xiaoqing doesn't want to reverse her case, the reason is actually very simple. This is actually reality!

If similar plots appear in film and television dramas, we can always see that the protagonist will look for various comeback opportunities based on his personality charm and personal abilities, and the final result must be the protagonist's final victory.

But in reality, such a thing may indeed exist, but the probability is really very small.

Especially in this era when information dissemination is far less developed, it can almost be said to be a foolish dream for a worker to want to fight against capital.

So~ Mu Xiaoqing, who was sober, gave up on overturning the case for herself and turned instead.

"So~ you want to get back the custody of your daughter, right?"

Chen Li poured himself a glass of white wine, then handed the bottle to Zhang Ruolan next to him, gesturing for her to pour it for Mu Xiaoqing.

Mu Xiaoqing, who was opposite, was obviously stunned for a moment after hearing Chen Li's words, and then nodded.

"Yes~ I just want to get back Xiaoya's custody right now. As for anything else, I have no idea."

Chen Li's words were very direct~ Mu Xiaoqing's answer was also very direct, because it was almost obvious.

Regarding what happened to Mu Xiaoqing, if she didn't have the idea of ​​proving herself again or overturning her case, then the only reason she could cheer up was probably her daughter.

People~actually have to have goals!

Especially when encountering difficulties, if you want to overcome this difficulty, you must have a clear goal.

If you just hang around in a muddle all day long, it will definitely become infinitely more difficult to get out of trouble.

Only by setting a clear goal for yourself and then working towards that goal can you overcome the current predicament.

It’s obvious~ The goal Mu Xiaoqing has set for herself is to get back the custody of her daughter.

This can be seen from the fact that Mu Xiaoqing recovered quickly after encountering this difficulty and tried to make a comeback.

Mu Xiaoqing wanted to improve her financial situation and then get back the custody of her daughter.

Of course, this is just Chen Li's guess. After all, given Mu Xiaoqing's character, career failure actually did not hit her as hard as she imagined.

But the betrayal of family members~the damage to Mu Xiaoqing will definitely be multiplied upwards.

When faced with such a situation, most people may not be able to hold on any longer.

So, getting back custody of her daughter may be the reason why Mu Xiaoqing is still insisting!

"In this matter~ I may not be able to provide much help for the time being!"

Chen Li picked up his wine glass, then gestured to Mu Xiaoqing and said:

"The help I can give you is probably to give you a chance!"

"An opportunity for you to return to the financial industry."

"You got the job!"

"Assistant Zhang will discuss the specific agreement with you later!"

After saying these words, Chen Li drank the white wine in the glass, then stood up and left the private room.

After Chen Li left, Mu Xiaoqing still held the liquor that Zhang Ruolan had just poured for her.

Looking at the door of the private room where Chen Li left, Mu Xiaoqing raised the wine glass with a serious expression and drank all the white wine in the glass.

"Congratulations~!"

Zhang Ruolan, who was on the side, was also happy for her friend at this moment. She poured half a cup of white wine into Mu Xiaoqing's cup and scooped out a spoonful of chicken soup.

"I still have work and can't drink, so I drink chicken soup instead!"

"Xiaoqing~ Come on!"

"Thanks!"

The two friends who have been friends for many years did not hold each other's arms and cry like in the normal storyline, which would have seemed more pretentious.

There is no need for words to express the feelings between the two. A spoonful of chicken soup and half a cup of white wine can all be said without words.

After drinking the chicken soup, Zhang Ruolan returned to her own job. She took out the contract drawn up in advance from her briefcase and started talking with Mu Xiaoqing.

But at this moment, Chen Li came to another private room.

There was a dinner party here before, and there were four people staying in the private room at the moment.

One of the four people is Ma Xiaoyun, the CEO of Red Pony Technology, and the other is Xu Xing, the director of Red Pony Technology. The remaining two are assistants to these two people.

It was obvious that these people were specifically waiting for Chen Li. Of course, Chen Li had greeted them in advance.

As soon as Chen Li came in, Ma Xiaoyun and Xu Xing's assistants each made excuses to leave the private room after greeting Chen Li.

Chen Li, on the other hand, directly found an unfinished bottle of Moutai from the table and poured a glass for Xu Xing and Ma Xiaoyun each.

"Hey~ Lao Chen, if you need anything, just say it. I really can't drink anymore."

At this time, Ma Xiaoyun's face was glowing red. His capacity for drinking was indeed a bit small, so he was somewhat at a disadvantage during this kind of socializing.

In fact, it's okay to socialize with those venture capital investors. Firstly, those people like to drink red wine. Secondly, with the development momentum of Red Pony Technology, he doesn't need to be humble to those venture capital investors.

But when drinking with people like Chen Li and Xu Xing, Ma Xiaoyun couldn't tolerate being sloppy, and before Chen Li came, he had already been drunk by Xu Xing.

However, there is an advantage to drinking with Chen Li, that is, he can refuse directly, although basically he cannot refuse.

"Oh~ Mr. Ma is awesome!"

"You can drink with Sister Xu, but you can't drink with me?"

When it comes to persuading people to drink, Chen Li, a nightclub director in his previous life, has countless ways.

When facing Ma Xiaoyun, he often chooses the most direct and effective way.

Sure enough~ As soon as he said this, Ma Xiaoyun was speechless and had to pick up the wine glass honestly.

Xu Xing on the side smiled and said nothing, but she moved the wine glass faster than anyone else.

When it comes to drinking, Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun combined are no match for Xu Xing.

Of course, it’s limited to liquor. If you drink beer, Chen Li’s drinking capacity can surpass these two people.

It's a pity that he has fewer and fewer opportunities to drink beer now. Usually when socializing, he drinks either white wine or red wine, and occasionally even some rice wine or something.

After a glass of wine~ Chen Li chose to get straight to the point.

"Brother Ma~ I want to use that money now!"

Ma Xiaoyun was stunned by Chen Li's words, and then nodded with some pain.

"Okay~ The money is no problem. I will arrange for someone to transfer it to you when you get back."

People are like this, even if they know that the money belongs to Chen Li, Ma Xiaoyun will still feel a little pain when he really wants to give it away.

After all, the current Ma Xiaoyun is not the head of the e-commerce empire in his previous life. Although his current development is far better than that of his previous life, the money Chen Li has is really a lot of money!

"I have something to trouble you with. I want to convert this money into U.S. dollars."

Chen Li poured another glass of wine for Ma Xiaoyun, but this time Ma Xiaoyun didn't even refuse.

To put it bluntly, after tens of millions of funds were given out, Ma Xiaoyun felt somewhat depressed.

However, these are normal emotions and do not affect the relationship between him and Chen Li.

"No problem~ Part of the funds that happened to be paid some time ago have not yet gone through the formalities."

Ma Xiaoyun raised his glass and clinked it with Chen Li, then drank the second glass of wine.

As soon as the glass of wine was finished, Chen Li filled it up again, which made Ma Xiaoyun depressed.

"No. Lao Chen, if I drink more I will get really drunk."

This matter was already settled by Chen Li, why did Chen Li still let him drink?

"No~ I haven't finished what I said yet!"

"One more thing. What's that expression on your face? One last thing."

"Okay~ Just say it!"

Ma Xiaoyun's face turned bitter. He finally knew that it would be bad for Chen Li to find him today.

"I have to ask Sister Xu about this."

Chen Li poured another glass of wine for Xu Xing and then raised the glass.

"Oh? Xiaoli, tell me, if there's anything I can do to help my sister, I won't hesitate."

Xu Xing's personality was straightforward and forthright, so she picked up the wine glass without being polite.

"I think."

"Use the shares of Red Pony Technology in your hand to mortgage five million US dollars with your fund!"

"Of course~how to calculate the interest"

"No. Wait a minute, what did you say?"

"Mortgage shares? Old Chen, are you crazy?"

Before Chen Li finished speaking, Ma Xiaoyun stood up in fright.

You must know that Chen Li holds a lot of shares. If it is mortgaged to the capital behind Xu Xing, then the capital represented by Xu Xing will become the largest shareholder of Red Pony.

"Damn, you scared me!"

Chen Li was a little speechless. Ma Xiaoyun's character was actually quite out-of-the-box. To put it bluntly, he was a bit fussy.

In his previous life, Chen Li looked at this e-commerce tycoon and felt that this guy was quite down-to-earth, but now he always feels that this guy is a bit awkward.

But this seems to be normal. After all, if Ma Xiaoyun did not have this character, how could he have built such a large e-commerce empire in his previous life when he was recognized as a liar by countless people?

"Can you finish listening to what I'm saying?"

Chen Li pulled Ma Xiaoyun to sit down, and then looked at Xu Xing, who was in a daze.

Xu Xing is also beating the drum in his heart at this moment!

You know, in the previous second round of financing, the capital behind her almost didn't come in. The reason is that founders such as Ma Xiaoyun felt that capital should not have too many shares.

This point is also recognized by Chen Li, that is, her previous performance was very good, and she helped the red pony solve many problems, so she has gained the trust of Chen Li and Ma Xiaoyun.

In the end, the capital behind Xu Xing once again got a share of the second round of financing. Basically, at this point, Xu Xing actually never thought about the red pony again.

But what does Chen Li’s behavior mean now?

"Sister Xu~ That's it!"

"As for me, I need some money now, so I plan to use the shares in my hand to mortgage it with you."

"However, although I pledged my shares to you, I have to hand over the voting rights of these shares to Brother Ma."

Chen Li simply put down the wine glass. He had to explain the matter clearly first, otherwise Ma Xiaoyun and Xu Xing would probably not be in the mood to drink this glass of wine.

Seeing this, Xu Xing also put down his wine glass, and she looked at Chen Li hesitantly.

"Xiao Li~ There shouldn't be any problem with the mortgage of shares."

"Even if I don't have the right to vote, I can still make the decision."

"But after all, Red Pony Technology is the most important investment I have at the moment, so."

"I don't want to pry for any information! But you suddenly want so much money."

"Are you sure you don't want to quit the red pony?"
