Chapter 6

"Mr. Lin, I really don’t have any demands. You can rest assured, I just want to have a job."

Wang Jincái had seen on TV that extortion could lead to criminal charges. He truly didn’t want to take any money from Lin Yihai. He thought that as long as he could have a job, that would be enough. So, what he said at this moment was genuinely heartfelt.

However, his words also implied a hint: as long as Lin Yihai could guarantee his job, he wouldn’t expose this matter as long as the job was secure.

But Lin Yihai didn’t think so. When he heard Wang Jincái’s words, he thought that Wang Jincái might first want a good job.

For Lin Yihai, the most important thing now was to keep Wang Jincái from exposing the matter. As long as the other party set a price, everything could be negotiated.

Lin Yihai felt somewhat relieved. Wasn’t it just a worker’s position? This might be difficult for others, but for him, it wasn’t a problem. As long as he made some moves, getting Wang Jincái hired into the company wouldn’t be an issue.

It seemed that the person who had sent Wang Jincái hadn’t set a very high price. This was good and also an opportunity for him. He had to seize this opportunity and turn Wang Jincái around.

Lin Yihai became even more composed.

"Is that so! Wang Jincái, how about this: our unit recruits workers every year. I can help you get a job as a technical school graduate. This would be much better than working in a labor team, right?"

"Permanent employment?" Wang Jincái felt a bit dizzy. This was almost like a blessing from the heavens, something he had never dared to dream of before.

"Can... can this be done?"

Wang Jincái asked, not quite believing it. He had to admit that this offer really made him心动 (heart move, meaning he was tempted). If he could become a permanent worker, he wouldn’t have to keep looking for jobs.

At this moment, Qiu Lijuan, with a red face, stood up and quickly put on her pants, saying, "Wang Jincái, this isn’t difficult. With Mr. Lin’s connections, as long as he wants to help you, it won’t be a problem."

Seeing the possibility of sealing Wang Jincái’s mouth, Qiu Lijuan was secretly pleased. As long as it didn’t get out, it would be a victory for them.

"I didn’t even finish junior high school!"

Wang Jincái thought about his lack of education.

Seeing a way out, Lin Yihai felt more at ease. As long as this kid had some demands, it was a good thing. He immediately said, "Isn’t it just a technical school diploma? Don’t worry, it just takes some money. I can guarantee that I can help you get it done."

"Can money get me a diploma?"

"A technical school diploma is no big deal. Don’t worry about it." Lin Yihai patted his chest, making a promise.

"This... this is troubling Mr. Lin!"

Thinking about becoming a permanent worker, Wang Jincái was excited.

Seeing that Wang Jincái had been moved, Lin Yihai felt a sense of satisfaction. He thought this kid wasn’t hard to deal with. It was just a worker’s position. He had connections both in technical schools and the company, so helping him shouldn’t be too difficult.

Qiu Lijuan looked at where Wang Jincái had put his phone and said, "Wang Jincái, about the photos?"

She was reminding Wang Jincái to delete the photos.

Although Wang Jincái had the idea of becoming a permanent worker, he wasn’t foolish enough to return the photos right away. He smiled and said, "Director Qiu, this can be exchanged for a job."

Qiu Lijuan felt bitter, thinking this kid was really hard to deal with.

Lin Yihai, however, thought about the person behind Wang Jincái and tried to ask, "Wang Jincái, since we’re all in the same boat, you should tell me who sent you here."

Trying to get more information?

Wang Jincái had already calmed down. He knew that from now on, his life might really change. If he could seize this opportunity, he would leave the poor village behind. So, facing Lin Yihai, he was already mentally prepared.

"Mr. Lin, this matter..." Wang Jincái pretended to be troubled and scratched his head.

Seeing Wang Jincái’s behavior, Lin Yihai became even more suspicious that someone was secretly trying to get him.

"This kid needs more than just a little benefit!"

Lin Yihai quickly calculated in his mind.

Indeed, just a worker’s position wouldn’t be enough to make Wang Jincái listen to him. He had to do something to keep Wang Jincái in line!

"Wang Jincái, I know you’re from the countryside and your family is in a tough situation. Here, I have some money. Take it for your immediate needs. If you have any problems in the future, just find your brother Lin. I still have some influence in this project department."

Saying this, Lin Yihai opened the car door and took out a black leather bag.

Qiu Lijuan, seeing the bag, felt a pang of pain. The bag contained 50,000 yuan, which Wei Hongjiang had given to Lin Yihai today. Lin Yihai had said this money was for her, but it hadn’t even warmed up in her hands before it was given to Wang Jincái.

What neither of them expected was that when Wang Jincái took the black bag and opened it, he quickly returned it to Lin Yihai, saying, "Mr. Lin, this is too much money. I can’t take it!"

Lin Yihai’s gaze fell on Wang Jincái’s face, which appeared calm.

Could the other party have given Wang Jincái more money?

Lin Yihai’s brows furrowed. Wang Jincái was from the countryside and earned only a few thousand yuan a month working in the project department. Seeing so much cash, he remained calm, which could only mean one thing: someone had given him even more money. Therefore, he wasn’t moved by 50,000 yuan.

Who was secretly working against him?

Lin Yihai thought about the deputy managers in the project department, feeling that anyone could be trying to get him. Everyone wanted his position.

Thinking about this, Lin Yihai looked at Qiu Lijuan and said, "Starting tomorrow, we’ll help Wang Jincái get his job settled, okay?"

Qiu Lijuan quickly said to Wang Jincái, "Wang Jincái, Mr. Lin is giving you an opportunity. Staying with Wei Hongjiang isn’t a good situation. Once you become a worker in the project department, with Mr. Lin’s support, you’ll have a chance for promotion and might even become a leader. When you return to your hometown, you’ll have face. Don’t worry, Mr. Lin is a man of his word and will definitely help you."

"Then... Director Zhang..."

Mentioning Director Zhang, Wang Jincái quickly stopped.

Wang Jincái suddenly had an idea: to get rid of Zhang Qunhai.

Director Zhang?

Lin Yihai thought about the incident between Wang Jincái and Zhang Qunhai today. He wasn’t sure what to think. There were two possibilities: one, Wang Jincái and Zhang Qunhai had a real conflict; the other, it was an act. However, the latter seemed less likely. Why would Zhang Qunhai do that?

After a moment of thought, he decided and said to Wang Jincái, "Don’t worry, he won’t do anything to you!"

"Wang Jincái, follow your brother Lin from now on. Don’t worry, as long as we understand each other, with Brother Lin’s support, you’ll definitely have a better future. Brother Lin can give you much more than others!"

Saying this, he pushed the black bag into Wang Jincái’s hands again, saying, "Take it. This is just a small token from Brother Lin. There will be more benefits in the future."

"Thank you, Brother Lin. From now on, I’ll follow you."

Lin Yihai looked at Wang Jincái’s clothes, knowing that this kid wouldn’t give up the phone easily. He wanted to get the phone, but it seemed unlikely.

It looks like that’s all we can do today!

Sighing inwardly, Lin Yihai was extremely frustrated about what had happened today.
