Reborn with Consumption System

Chapter 973: Chapter 394: Where Is the Trust Between People? (3)

Actually, Brother Lie was ready to give that square-faced kidney deficiency guy another blow, but since Tang Xintian wanted to leave, there was no rush.

So he pulled out a thoughtfully prepared business card holder from his pocket, took out five exquisite hollow cards, and handed them out politely.

"Gentlemen, Sister Orange, here’s my card. If there are any good things you want to consult me about, give me a call."

Seemingly polite, but extremely tough in reality.

The subtext was clear—if it’s not a good thing, but rather some trouble asking for my help, then don’t bother calling.

We don’t have that kind of friendship.

The square face was so angry he didn’t want to accept it. The kidney deficiency guy stayed silent with a gloomy face, but Gu Zicheng was the first to take it with an interested look.

Du Xiaoshuai politely returned a card: "Alright, Brother Han, here’s my card."

The Northeast King laughed heartily: "Great, great, I’m very impressed with your skills. I’ll certainly seek your guidance when I have the chance!"

All three of them took it, so the other two had no choice but to pinch their noses and take the cards.

Then as Tang Xintian left with Han Lie, the square face irritably called out to Dou Dou, who was trying hard to play invisible.

"Come back!"

"Oh..."

Dou Dou obediently scooted over to the square face, giving a flattering smile: "Bro~~~ what’s up?"

Fang Fang was her real name, and she was a close sibling with Fang Yuan, nicknamed Dou Dou.

Fang Yuan asked irritably, "Do you know what’s up with that dude? Did you hear what those two were talking about?"

Fang Fang felt a chill on her scalp, thinking: You can’t get Xintian, so why take it out on me? I didn’t ruin your chance...

She obediently shook her head: "Nope! Their conversation was very normal and natural... But Xintian did hold on to that jerk’s arm from the start..."

Fang Yuan’s eyes lit up instantly: "So you think that guy is a jerk too? Damn, I didn’t like him from the first glance!"

Gu Zicheng and Fang Fang both rolled their eyes immediately.

Is whether Han Lie is a jerk the point?

Maybe Tang Xintian likes that type; what’s the point of you yelling here?

"Yeah, and the shady and scheming kind!"

The kidney deficiency guy chimed in in agreement, analyzing with a grave expression: "A guy from such an ordinary family, probably scared of being poor, he finally meets Sister Xintian, how could he not cling on desperately?

Look how much Sister Xintian is charmed by him?

She knows he has a fiancée, yet still protects him...

Damn!

This pretty boy is definitely a master of all kinds of jerk routines, tricking women left and right. It’s a wonder Sister Xintian, who’s all about being kind-hearted, doesn’t get fooled!"

Fang Yuan was both furious and anxious, biting so hard his cheeks were swollen.

"Damn! What do we do?"

"How about..." the kidney deficiency guy sneakily suggested, "we find an opportunity to deal with him?"

"You two are just idle, aren’t you?"

The Northeast King sneered, smiling wryly.

"Tang Xintian is a grown woman; she’s the one who willingly sticks to him. What does it have to do with you two? If you’re not pretty or silver-tongued, stop pining away, or you’ll end up getting smacked—it’s not worth it..."

This is unbearable, not even the uncles and aunts can stand it!

The Northeast King’s added fuel was genuinely well-timed, and the square face and kidney deficiency guy exchanged glances, making up their minds.

They couldn’t let Han Lie have an easy day today!

Just then, Du Xiaoshuai suddenly hissed and quickly waved them over.

"Guys! Don’t rush! Take a look at Han Lie’s card. Why does it seem a bit off to me?"

"What’s up?"

Everyone, including the observant Gu Zicheng, looked down to scrutinize the card again.

Dou Dou, with her little head like a reddish watermelon, leaned beside her brother.

The card was made of a hollow metal material, partially gold-plated—very luxurious, but also kind of what you’d expect.

Nowadays, many big sharks in the financial world like to use high-cost business cards, emphasizing a flair for show.

The company name was ordinary too, some such-and-such Capital, very common.

[Sky Capital Han Lie]

There was no specific title or other information below; things like fund manager weren’t even written there.

The square face looked several times but couldn’t make sense of it. He was about to ask when the Northeast King suddenly slapped his thigh: "Damn! This phone number... is quite interesting, eh?"

The square face and the kidney deficiency guy both looked at the phone number, and suddenly felt a jolt in their hearts.

Dou Dou, confused, widened her eyes and read it aloud: "13900116666... just a four-sequential number, so what?"

Gu Zicheng finally reacted and turned to ask Du Xiaoshuai: "What rank was the first batch of numbers in your Magic Capital?"

The question was off, but everyone understood the meaning.

Du Xiaoshuai explained carefully: "1390013, my dad uses 0013, with a tail number of 0895, from the first batch allocated for mobile phones. To buy them usually costs around 3000 afterwards.

The numbers in front were simulated numbers 1390 and 1380, ten-digit numbers, but those have no practical significance anymore. The 139 segment started in ’95, the earliest official mobile number segment in the country for China Unicom.

The kidney deficiency guy widened his eyes incredulously: "So what about his 0011?"

The Northeast King frowned, his expression a bit serious: "Imperial Capital’s. And from the earliest batch from there, back when our Liaoning Province’s mobile number segment was 1390411. By the time my dad got a phone, it was already up to 9889."

The square face was utterly perplexed.

"Damn it! Didn’t his dad work at an ordinary state-owned enterprise?!"

As a qualified second generation, he knew full well the difficulty of trading such numbers.

Normally, even if the first-generation owner ended up weaving in prison, the family wouldn’t deactivate it.

And if the number did get deactivated, it would definitely be reclaimed by the mobile company, awaiting the next qualified owner.

So the question is—what level is considered qualified in a place like the Imperial Capital?!

Because he understood, the square face’s entire visage became blue with fury, bursting into curses.

"Damn scammer! Came to play the sheep to catch the tigers with me? Is there just no basic trust between people anymore?!"

The kidney deficiency guy didn’t dare fan the flames anymore, glaring with dead fish eyes, mumbling to himself.

"’95?! At that time, to have such a number, you at least had to be a top official in the committee, right? They must have retired by now... Damn! This guy’s family is a generation ahead of us! He’s at least a third generation..."

Gu Zicheng frowned and asked: "Is it really impossible to buy?"

The Northeast King and Du Xiaoshuai shook their heads simultaneously.

"It’s extremely unlikely. Similar rank numbers might be buyable in the Magic Capital, but in the Imperial Capital... think for yourself."

"And it’s not just the first batch number; it’s also got the most auspicious four-sequential order in the first batch, like 6789. Would you sell it if it were you?"

In conclusion, the four young heirs all stared at each other, each mentally extinguishing their anger.

Dou Dou didn’t understand, nor did she care. Seeing her brother’s bear-like demeanor, she quietly pouted.

And Gu Zicheng suddenly turned her eyes to fixate on Han Lie’s back, her expression dangerous and excited, subconsciously licking her dry lips...
