How A Ride-Hailing Driver Comes To Dominate The World? [EN]: Chapter 493

What Kind of Genius Scam Is This?_What’s Wrong with a Ride-Hailing Driver Having Some Money?

Before Yang Chen finished his breakfast, Qiu Hongqiang called.

Qiu Hongqiang: “Mr. Yang, do you have time later? I have something to report to you.”

Yang Chen: “I’ll be driving later. I’ll stop by your company when I pass by.”

Qiu Hongqiang: “I’m nearby. I’ll come to you now. Come out in about ten minutes, and we’ll meet at the entrance of your residential area.”

Yang Chen: “Okay! See you later.”

Yang Chen quickly finished his breakfast, tidied up, and went out.

As he drove out of the residential area, Qiu Hongqiang’s car arrived.

Yang Chen parked his car on the side of the road and got into Qiu Hongqiang’s car.

Qiu Hongqiang: “Mr. Yang, have you seen the news? Huo Song and Wu Yuchen have been dealt with. They planned to assassinate you, and this is the fate they deserve.”

Yang Chen: “Were that man and woman in Jeju Island them?”

Qiu Hongqiang: “Yes. What about the others in the Huo and Wu families?”

Yang Chen: “The others in the Wu family are innocent. Wu Yuchen, that simp, acted on his own to please Huo Song. It has nothing to do with the others in the Wu family, so let them go. But Huo Enguo can’t be let go. He must go see his son.”

Qiu Hongqiang: “Understood! I contacted President Chen of the Hangzhou branch. The brothers there found out that Tang Xuexu went to the Wu family. I guess she wants to use the Wu family’s power to deal with you? If that’s the case, what do you want to do?”

Yang Chen: “Don’t you know my temper? I always leave a way out for people and never bully others. But anyone who dares to threaten my personal safety will face zero tolerance. They must all pay the price with their lives. If the Wu family dares to send people to mess with me, then wipe out the Wu family. Include Tang Xuexu too.”

Qiu Hongqiang: “Understood. It depends on whether the Wu family wants to live or die. I have nothing else to report. Do you have any other instructions?”

Yang Chen: “Give me your phone.”

Qiu Hongqiang nodded and quickly handed his phone to Yang Chen.

Then, Yang Chen used Qiu Hongqiang’s phone to call Li Xiuyan.

Li Xiuyan didn’t answer the first time.

She answered just before it automatically hung up the second time.

Li Xiuyan: “Hello, who is this?”

Yang Chen: “It’s me.”

Li Xiuyan: “Huh? Is that Brother Chen? Did you change your number?”

Yang Chen: “Haha… No, this is my subordinate’s phone. I need your help with something, and it’s safer to talk to you using his phone.”

Li Xiuyan: “Brother Chen, just tell me what you need.”

Yang Chen: “Did you see the news about the murder of a man and a woman at a five-star hotel in Jeju Island?”

Li Xiuyan: “Yes, the reaction here is huge. Because Jeju Island is a tourist destination in our country, such incidents cause panic and affect our tourism revenue. Is what you want to talk about related to them?”

Yang Chen: “Yes! I want you to use the Two Star Group’s influence in Korea to make this case look like a crime of passion. The female victim had an affair, and the male victim killed her in a fit of anger, then committed suicide out of guilt. Do you understand what I mean?”

After hearing what Yang Chen said, Li Xiuyan could basically guess what was going on.

Li Xiuyan: “Okay, Brother Chen, I’ll do it right away. Just wait for the news. It will definitely be as you said.”

Yang Chen: “Haha… Good. I might be moving next month. When you have time, be sure to come and find me. I’ll take you to experience the life of ancient kings and generals.”

Li Xiuyan: “Hehe… No problem. It’s a deal. I’ll come to congratulate you when you move.”

Yang Chen: “Okay, that’s all for now. Go and do it quickly.”

Li Xiuyan happily said “Okay,” and then hung up the phone.

Yang Chen returned the phone to Qiu Hongqiang and said, “You go ahead with your work. I’m going to drive.”

Qiu Hongqiang: “It’s still Mr. Yang who’s the best. With the help of the Two Star Group’s little princess, we don’t have to use our brains.”

Yang Chen smiled, got out of the car, and returned to his own car.

Qiu Hongqiang drove back to the company, and Yang Chen went to pick up passengers.

Around ten o’clock, Yang Chen had just dropped off a passenger when a young man in his early twenties suddenly rushed into the car.

As soon as he got in, he said to Yang Chen, “Brother, can you take me to Jinmen? I will definitely reward you handsomely with 1 million when we get there.”

Yang Chen turned around and looked at the young man carefully, wondering if this was another new type of scam.

Yang Chen: “Young man, do I look like I’m easy to fool?”

The young man took out his ID card and handed it to Yang Chen, saying, “Brother, I’m not lying to you. To tell you the truth, I was abandoned by my biological parents after I was born, and my adoptive parents adopted me. Last month, my biological parents found me and said they would transfer all 20 properties under their names to me. But I hate them for abandoning me back then, and my adoptive parents are old and need me to take care of them, so I didn’t accept their offer. Last week, my biological parents died in a car accident. I attended their funeral, but after the funeral, I was kidnapped by my uncle and cousin. They sent me to Beijing, planning to sell me. I just took advantage of the time when the person guarding me went to the bathroom and jumped out of the window. Now I must return to Jinmen to retrieve the will left by my biological parents, otherwise their property will be taken over by my uncle and cousin.”

Yang Chen quickly interrupted, “Stop, stop, even screenwriters and directors can’t make up stories like you. If what you’re saying is true, why don’t you just call the police? Or should I help you call the police?”

The young man: “Do you think I don’t want to call the police? They have connections. If I call the police, it’s like walking into a trap. My biological parents left a will, and they want to force me to hand over the will and destroy it.”

Yang Chen: “The will needs to be notarized at the notary office. Just find a notary to witness it for you.”

The young man: “But the notary who notarized my parents’ will has also been bought off by them.”

Damn!

Even the most famous domestic screenwriters wouldn’t dare to write something like this.

Any normal person would think he’s talking nonsense when they hear him say these things.

Yang Chen is no exception. He also thinks this might be a scam he’s never seen before.

“Young man, if you’re really in trouble, I can help you. But it’s a bit much to make up such an outrageous story to deceive me. Here, here’s a hundred yuan. I hope it can help you with your immediate needs. Be a good person and don’t think crooked thoughts,” Yang Chen said very sincerely, taking out a hundred-yuan bill and giving it to him.

The young man: “Okay, thank you, brother. Remember, my name is Zhang Kang. This hundred yuan will definitely bring you ten thousand times the return in the future. Also, I didn’t lie to you. Everything I said is true.”

After saying that, the young man took the money, got out of the car, and ran away.

Yang Chen shook his head with a smile and continued to take orders.

When driving a ride-hailing car, you can meet all kinds of people. Yang Chen didn’t pay much attention to it.

Two days later, around noon, Yang Chen took a passenger to Kanghua Residential Area.

The entrance of the residential area was crowded with people, and there were more than a dozen police cars parked there.

Yang Chen parked his car and went over to watch the excitement.

From a distance, Yang Chen still saw Zhang Kang lying in a pool of blood.

Zhang Kang was still clutching a red bill in his hand, which should be the one Yang Chen gave him.

At that moment, Yang Chen’s mind buzzed, and then he felt a burst of pain in his heart.

What Zhang Kang said might have been true, it just sounded a little outrageous.

Yang Chen returned to the car and immediately called Qiu Yuhong.

Yang Chen: “Chairman Qiu, please notify the Jinmen branch and ask them to investigate all the information about a person named Zhang Kang, especially his family and relatives. It must be comprehensive and detailed. I’ll send you his photo.”

Qiu Yuhong: “Okay.”

Yang Chen retrieved the surveillance video in the car and sent a screenshot of Zhang Kang’s face to Qiu Yuhong.

Zhang Kang’s death has nothing to do with Yang Chen.

But Yang Chen still felt a little guilty because he felt he could have saved Zhang Kang.

Anyone with flesh and blood would feel uncomfortable in this situation.

At two o’clock in the afternoon, Qiu Yuhong replied to Yang Chen.

The situation of Zhang Kang has been investigated clearly, and basically, there is no big difference from what he said to Yang Chen.

Zhang Kang was abandoned by his biological parents, Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan, just after he was born. Later, he was adopted by an orphanage, and at the age of three, he was adopted by Zhang Hai and Liu Mei, a couple who could not have children.

Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan later made some money doing small business and bought an old and small house. After a few years, the house was demolished, and they were given 2 houses, plus 2 million in compensation.

At that time, housing prices had not yet risen sharply. The two earned money but did not know how to manage it, so they all used it to buy houses. After 2008, housing prices began to rise rapidly. The two continued to expand their business by buying low and selling high. Now the number of properties under their names, large and small, has reached 20.

The only regret for the two was that they had eaten the forbidden fruit [had premarital sex] when they were young and ignorant and had a child, but they threw it away because they were afraid.

Now that their living conditions are better, they want to make up for this regret, so they inquired about their son’s whereabouts everywhere, and finally found their son Zhang Kang last month.

The two wanted to use 20 properties to lure their son to go home with them, but their son refused.

After the couple went back, Ge Chunlai’s brother Ge Xialai and nephew Ge Kang had a big fight with them.

Perhaps God punished Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan for throwing away their own flesh and blood. The two later failed to give birth to another child. They accidentally miscarried three times, and later they simply could not get pregnant.

Therefore, the couple has always regarded their nephew Ge Kang as their own son, and made up for their guilt towards their own son to Ge Kang.

Ge Kang was not called Ge Kang at first, but Ge Zhenlong, because Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan abandoned their biological son called Xiaokang, he changed his name to Ge Kang, just to please his uncle and aunt, so that he could successfully inherit their family property in the future.

The couple has said more than once that they will leave their property to their nephew to inherit after their death, and the two families have always gotten along very happily.

In the eyes of Ge Xialai and Ge Kang’s father and son, the property of Ge Chunlai and his wife already belongs to Ge Kang, but it is only temporarily deposited with the two of them.

Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan wanted to use 20 properties to lure their biological son to go home, which Ge Xialai and Ge Kang could not accept, so they had a big fight.

Last week, Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan were planning to see their son, but they did not want to encounter a car accident on the road due to brake failure, and the couple both ascended to heaven [died].

After the funeral, Ge Chunlai and Yang Lijuan’s biological son Zhang Kang disappeared.

From the information investigated by Xingchen Defense Jinmen Branch, it is basically consistent with what Zhang Kang said to Yang Chen.

But the more this is the case, the more Yang Chen feels guilty, because his caution has caused a life to be lost.

Yang Chen called Qiu Yuhong and instructed, “Zhang Kang just died, falling from a high altitude. I don’t know for the time being whether it was suicide or being pushed down. You order the two branches in Beijing and Jinmen to find out all the things as soon as possible, I want to know all the truth. If Zhang Kang was killed, I want everyone to go and apologize to him in person.”

Qiu Yuhong: “Understood. I’ll do it right away.”

Originally, Yang Chen was in a good mood today, but this little episode messed everything up.

It’s not far from Joy City here, so Yang Chen drove to Joy City to find something to eat.

At this time, in the office building of Joy City.

A burst of cheers came from the office of a company called “Kangle Technology”.

“That fool really transferred the money, he’s so easy to fool.”

“Haha… 5 million is in hand, we can enjoy it for a while.”

“Enjoy my ass, there are still a few months before the New Year, do you have money to go home for the New Year? We should continue to work hard to make more money, so that we can go home in glory during the New Year. And don’t you all want to go to the South Myanmar headquarters? Perform well, and I’ll recommend you to the South Myanmar headquarters. Once you get there, you can not only make big money, but also enjoy the life of a superior person, with bright lights and green wine [a luxurious lifestyle], luxury cars and beautiful women, handsome guys and young models, everything you could want.”

“President Chen, what you said makes me itchy. Let’s go, let’s go to Joy City to find prey.”

……

This is a fraud company that has just successfully defrauded 5 million.

Now they are looking for new targets to continue their fraud.

As Yang Chen was walking, a young and beautiful girl suddenly stepped forward and stopped him, and knelt down on one knee and said, “Young master, I have finally found you. The master knows he was wrong and hopes you can forgive him and come home with me immediately to inherit the family property.”

Huh?

What the hell?

Yang Chen quickly looked around, and then asked, “Beauty, are you mistaken? I’m not a young master, and my family doesn’t have any master [patriarch].”

The girl: “Young master, I know you are still angry with the master. The master already knows he was wrong and specially sent his subordinates to invite you home to inherit 30 billion family property. Young master, please come home with me.”

Yang Chen looked around again and did not find any cameras or anything like that.

Yang Chen: “What kind of street test program is this?”

There were already many people stopping to watch the excitement, making Yang Chen very embarrassed.

“What’s the situation? What kind of short drama is this being filmed? The three-year period has expired, and he’s going home to inherit the family property?”

“But I didn’t see any cameras, maybe it’s real.”

“It is said that art comes from life, could it be that this kind of bloody plot [dramatic and unbelievable plot] really exists in reality?”

……

The girl: “Young master, it’s really not a street test program, I’m really here to invite you home to inherit 30 billion family property.”

Yang Chen: “Hehe… I’m not interested in 30 billion, you should go find someone else to try.”

The girl: “Young master, don’t say angry words. It’s 30 billion, not 3 million, how could you not be interested?”

Yang Chen: “If it’s money I earned myself, then I’m definitely interested. But I’m definitely not interested in being cheated.”

The girl: “Young master, you really misunderstood Chunxiang, Chunxiang dare not cheat you, it’s really the master’s order for Chunxiang to find you, young master. Look, this is your photo, right?”

Saying that, she took out a printed photo.

Yang Chen was amused when he saw it. Isn’t this a candid shot of him parking?

Now he can be sure that she is a liar. Yang Chen wants to see how this scam will continue and how they will get the money.

Yang Chen: “It’s my photo, but I still don’t believe it.”

The girl: “If you don’t believe it, give me a card, and I can ask someone to immediately transfer 1 million to your card as proof. Young master, I really didn’t lie to you, please come home with me.”

With Zhang Kang’s lesson, Yang Chen felt that any outrageous plot might be true.

Of course, if it’s fake, Yang Chen would also like to see how this scam will continue.

If they can be successfully cheated, they are definitely geniuses.

So, Yang Chen casually took out his Black Gold Card from Haicheng Bank.

The girl’s eyes widened in shock when she saw the Black Gold Card.

That’s not right, isn’t he a ride-hailing driver?

How could he have a Black Gold Card from Haicheng Bank? [A very exclusive bank card for high-net-worth individuals]

The account has to maintain a deposit of 100 million [Chinese Yuan, approximately 14 million USD] all year round to have this card. Can a ride-hailing driver have so much money?

The girl hesitated a little. People who have a Black Gold Card from Haicheng Bank are not easy to cheat.

He just said that he was not interested in 30 billion, maybe he really wasn’t interested.

Yang Chen: “What’s wrong? Are you going back on your word?”

The girl: “No, no… It’s just… I want to know if this card is yours?”

Yang Chen: “Aren’t you talking nonsense? If it’s not my card, how could it be in my hand? Transfer it, I’ll believe you as soon as I receive 1 million, and I’ll go back with you immediately to inherit the family property.”

Yang Chen still doesn’t believe it. Would scammers really transfer 1 million first to cheat money?

If they really use this method to cheat money, wouldn’t they lose so much that even their own mothers wouldn’t recognize them?

At this time, the leaders of the fraud company who were observing the scene through the pinhole camera carried by the girl were also depressed.

“Damn, how could the ride-hailing driver we carefully selected have a Black Gold Card from Haicheng Bank?”

“He’s so rich, he must not be easy to cheat, let’s change the target.”

“What are you kidding about? Can you cheat money from a poor ghost? If you want to cheat, of course you cheat rich people. As long as you can succeed, one order is worth ten orders. Continue, isn’t he rich? We have to cheat the money of rich people, that’s what makes us feel accomplished.”
