False Court

Chapter 4 Very Cold

Zhang Wu also had a plan. He directly grabbed a wad of cash and handed it to a younger member of his group, giving him a meaningful look.

The younger member immediately understood. He took two thousand red bills and walked over to Su Mo, placing the money in front of him.

To put it in perspective, the entire table full of food that his boss had just ordered wouldn't even cost 300 yuan.

"Brother, let's talk about something."

Su Mo looked up at the young man in front of him.

"What is it?"

"Take this money. How about letting my boss have the dishes in front of you?"

"I'm not short on money."

Su Mo replied after a moment of silence.

The younger member thought that Su Mo didn't think the money was enough, so he raised his hand and patted Su Mo on the shoulder, persuading him, "Brother, this is a lot of money, give us some face. Our boss, Zhang Wu, is a well-known figure in this area. Just consider it making a friend. If we meet in the future, you'll have some connections."

At this moment, Uncle Zhao came out of the kitchen and, seeing this scene, quickly walked over and asked,

"What are you trying to do?"

Su Mo didn't have much of an appetite to begin with, and these people were at least speaking reasonably. Besides, this was Uncle Zhao's place, and he didn't want to cause trouble and bring problems to Uncle Zhao, so he raised his hand, signaling Uncle Zhao not to say anything.

"Okay, I agree."

"Brother, you're reasonable. If you have any trouble in this area in the future, just say our boss's name, and people will give you some respect."

The younger member said smugly when he saw that Su Mo had agreed. Then, he carried the dishes towards his boss.

Uncle Zhao wanted to say something, but the words didn't come out.

Su Mo got up and said to Uncle Zhao, "Uncle Zhao, I have something to do. I'll leave first."

"Wait, let me give you the rent."

Uncle Zhao took out a large stack of money to give to Su Mo.

Su Mo refused, "No need. You always treat me to delicious food every year for my birthday. I'm already grateful."

"What are you talking about? Quickly take it."

Seeing that Su Mo was unwilling to accept it, Uncle Zhao directly reached out and opened Su Mo's bulging snakeskin bag.

All the bright red cash was exposed.

Zhang Wu, Xiao Wen, and the group of younger members almost had their eyes pop out when they saw that the bulging snakeskin bag was actually full of money. They couldn't help but shout in their hearts.

"Holy crap! This guy is so rich?"

Uncle Zhao quickly put the rent into the snakeskin bag and said to Su Mo, "Come by for a meal whenever you're free."

"Okay!"

Su Mo staggered as he dragged the snakeskin bag and left the restaurant.

"Who exactly is that guy? So rich?"

After Su Mo left, Zhang Wu couldn't help but ask.

At this time, the other customers in the restaurant burst into laughter.

One of the burly men with tattoos all over his body said to Zhang Wu and the others with a smile, "Kid, consider yourself lucky that he didn't bother with you. That kid is the landlord of this entire urban village. Everything here belongs to him. How can you compare to him with your little bit of money? And this is his territory. Let me tell you, if he shouts, none of you will be able to leave this place today."

"Haha!"

The diners present burst into laughter.

"Ah..."

Zhang Wu and the others were so shocked that they couldn't speak.

On the other side, Su Mo dragged the snakeskin bag to the only bank here.

A manager with a round body, small eyes, and a white shirt was pacing back and forth at the entrance. The moment he saw Su Mo in the distance, he was happier than seeing his own father and rushed up with his short legs.

"Oh, Mr. Su Mo, you're finally here! Let me help you carry it!"

"No need, I'll do it myself. I want to deposit money."

It seemed that Su Mo wasn't dealing with this manager for the first time.

A large part of this bank's performance came from Su Mo, so the little fat manager's enthusiasm was naturally unnecessary to say.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of it for you right away. What are you all standing there for? Come and help!"

The manager immediately shouted at the employees behind him.

Soon, several employees ran out to help drag. This snakeskin bag wasn't ordinary heavy. It weighed at least several hundred pounds. The money was quickly dragged into the bank, and the manager said decisively.

"Stop all other business, everyone count the money."

"Yes, Manager!"

The employees present responded one after another.

Su Mo walked straight to a chair in the corner and sat down. The employees present poured him a glass of water and didn't bother him too much.

They knew very well that this young man in front of them didn't like to talk to strangers too much. Instead of trying to please him, it was better to hurry up and count the money to make him happy.

The rent collected was a bit chaotic in denomination. There were thousand-yuan notes, five-hundred-yuan notes, and hundred-yuan notes, and even ten-cent and fifty-cent coins.

Two hours later, the counting was over.

A message popped up on Su Mo's phone.

"Notification: Dear Mr. Su Mo, 18,632,000 yuan has been deposited into your account ending in 245..."

After seeing the message, Su Mo picked up his phone and operated it for a while. Soon, he transferred out a property tax of 15 million yuan.

In this world, all properties have to pay a high property tax of one percent every year.

However, because the area where Su Mo was located was considered a poverty alleviation area, he enjoyed a 50% discount.

In fact, if Su Mo charged normally, although he couldn't charge as high as the new district, it wouldn't be a problem to collect 70 to 80 million yuan a year.

But Su Mo didn't care about these things at all. He always remembered his grandfather's instructions: A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring.

Although he didn't have much money left in the end, he was still very satisfied.

The balance on Su Mo's account jumped to 133.4 million yuan.

He was already a billionaire at such a young age, and he was also very helpless.

You should know that once your assets reach the ten million level, you can apply to move into the high walls.

At this time, the manager respectfully handed the worn-out snakeskin bag to Su Mo, rubbing his hands and greeting him with a smile.

"Mr. Su Mo, would you like to have a meal together or something?"

"No need, thank you, I'm leaving."

Su Mo was not in the mood at all. He got up and was about to walk out.

"Then I'll see you off."

The manager didn't force him and enthusiastically saw Su Mo off.

When night completely fell, Su Mo returned home alone.

The faint moonlight shone into the dimly lit room of two hundred square meters, and the spacious house suddenly seemed cold and without a trace of warmth.

He walked straight to the bed, took off his shoes and climbed directly into the bed, wrapped himself in the blanket, and stared blankly at the photo frame placed on the table in front of him.

Inside the photo frame was a photo. In the photo, you could see a kind old man and Su Mo taking a group photo. Both of them had bright smiles on their faces.

That period of time was also the happiest time in Su Mo's life.

Tick...

Tick...

......

The alarm clock on the bedside table kept moving, and time passed little by little.

He didn't know how long it had been, but Su Mo, who was immersed in his memories, suddenly remembered what his grandfather had said before he passed away.

"People can't be idle all the time, they always have to find something to do."

Perhaps it was this sentence that had been encouraging Su Mo to live on.

Su Mo slowly got out of bed, reached out and turned on the main light in the room, and the huge room instantly lit up.

Looking around, there were cabinets and bookshelves everywhere, filled with various lifelike figures. There were beautiful game characters and anime characters, as well as futuristic science fiction weapons and mecha models...

In addition, the bookshelves were filled with collector's edition game boxes, covering various games, each worth a fortune.

Su Mo walked to the computer desk and sat down, turned on the computer and prepared to check out the Star Ring game that had been very popular recently. He wanted to see if it was fun and if it could arouse a little interest in him so that he would have something to do.
