Chapter 937: Alcohol Makes Cowards Brave

About two hours later.

Yin Zhongxian, wearing an inconspicuous half-worn windbreaker, rode a bicycle and appeared in front of a convenience store at the other end of the city.

According to the plan just now, he should go in, buy a short-term anonymous phone card, and then immediately call the numbers he had written down before.

However, at this last moment, he hesitated a little-

On the one hand, this matter is absolutely a naked crime.

Although it seems a bit strange to consider these things in the current situation, as a scholar who has lived half his life in accordance with the rules, Yin Zhongxian is actually used to being pushed forward by others in work and life.

He didn't feel anything when he was emotional before, but now that he has calmed down, he still feels quite difficult to make this "heretical" decision himself.

Moreover, even if he puts aside the inner struggle, there is another more realistic problem.

Once this step is taken, there is no turning back.

If the transaction was made rashly, the other party could have made a verbal promise first, and then thrown him aside to die after getting the things.

Many spy-themed novels or movies are written like this.

Would the Chinese do the same?

Moreover, the phone numbers he copied from the website were all responsible for external liaison business.

If he rashly called them and said that I have what you want...

Others might not believe it...

Yin Zhongxian parked his bicycle on the side of the road, put his hands in his pockets, and gently twisted the note.

After hesitating for a moment, he gritted his teeth and walked into the convenience store according to the plan beforehand.

The store owner was a half-bald uncle about 50 years old. At this time, he leaned on a worn wooden chair, crossed his legs and watched TV attentively.

He didn't even notice that there were customers in the store.

Of course, this would be a weekday afternoon, and there would indeed be few people patronizing.

Yin Zhongxian did not immediately remind the other party, but came to the counter in silence.

Stacks of phone cards were tied with rubber bands and neatly stacked in a paper box.

"Buy... don't buy... buy... don't buy..."

Two voices lingered in Yin Zhongxian's mind, making it difficult for him to make a final decision for a while.

"Eh?"

At the same time, the boss finally realized that there was someone standing next to him, and hurriedly stood up to greet the customer:

"Sorry, I was so engrossed in watching TV just now that I didn't notice you, the customer."

"What do you want to buy?"

He walked to the opposite side of Yin Zhongxian, opened the glass door behind the counter, and prepared to get something for the latter.

"I..."

I don't know if it was because of dry mouth or hesitation, anyway, Yin Zhongxian just said a word, and the sound was stuck in his throat.

"Ahem - I want to buy a bottle of water..."

At the most critical moment, he almost instinctively retreated.

"Oh... what brand do you want?"

Hearing Yin Zhongxian say that he just wanted to buy a bottle of water, the boss was a little discouraged.

Compared to the fancy electronic gadgets on the counter, the profit of a bottle of water is negligible.

"Nongshim... Nongshim is ready."

The shop owner turned around to get him some water.

Yin Zhongxian was also a little annoyed with his own weakness.

He knew that if he walked out of here in disgrace today, he might not even be able to "walk into a convenience store" in the future.

Just when Yin Zhongxian's mind was like a mess, a familiar voice came from the TV next to him.

"The Geoje Shipyard under my group is still building these 8 LNG ships according to the original plan. Any rumors that the Norwegian company is considering replacing the second party are false news..."

Yin Zhongxian turned around abruptly and looked at the small TV on the shelf next to him.

It was a press conference.

A press conference held by Samsung Offshore Engineering.

The person who was sitting in front of the camera and talking freely at this time was the executive director he had just contacted, Song Minyong.

"Here, your water."

The shop owner put a bottle of mineral water on the counter:

"500 yuan."

But Yin Zhongxian seemed not to hear it. He neither took the water nor paid. He just stared at the side.

"You are also paying attention to this news, right?"

The shop owner had a good temper and thought that the customer in front of him was also a spectator like himself, so he immediately opened the conversation:

"If you ask me, these Chinese people are really overestimating their own abilities. Our Korean shipbuilding is expected to surpass Japan and become the world's number one next year. What technology can they have that is worth stealing?"

Geoje City is one of the best shipbuilding industrial cities in Korea and even in the world. As a result, it has become one of the regions with the highest per capita income in Korea.

As a local who has reaped the benefits, the shop owner naturally has a very strong recognition and confidence in his country's shipbuilding industry.

However, this sentence sounded completely unpleasant to Yin Zhongxian.

Outsiders don't know the twists and turns here, but he knows it clearly.

"Hey, young man."

Seeing that Yoon Jong-hyun didn't answer, the shop owner continued to show his chatterbox nature:

"I see your skin is tanned dark... Are you also working in the shipyard?"

This sentence scared Yoon Jong-hyun so much that he shuddered.

"Oh... No, I'm a house builder, a project manager."

As the two chatted, the press conference on TV had entered the next round of questions and answers.

This time, the reporter had obviously prepared in advance, and he used the example of the bulk carrier structure fracture accident that happened last year to ask how Samsung Offshore will ensure the safety of the ship.

"The bulk carrier you are talking about should be the one that Mitsubishi Shipyard built in 1ader L."

"I would like to draw the attention of this reporter to the fact that there are very obvious differences between the construction standards of bulk carriers and LNG ships, as well as the shipbuilding technologies in the 1970s and this century. Such a comparison cannot be made directly, not to mention that the ship was built in Japan."

Song Minyong is by no means a fool. He answered this question fluently and stepped on another competitor by the way:

"In short, you can rest assured that the so-called infringement of the BOG reliquefaction system and the safety hazards are completely slandered by competitors. They lost to us in fair competition, so they used this method..."

"In addition, the technologies used on these 8 ships have been strictly tested and certified by Geoje Shipyard. The relevant reports and all construction processes also have detailed review documents to ensure that there will be no problems that cannot be implemented..."

Hearing this, the convenience store owner nodded with satisfaction:

"Look, I said it."

"Our shipyard is still responsible..."

However, Yin Zhongxian next to him was eyelid twitching, and almost opened his mouth to spray Song Minyong, the old dog, at the TV.

Implement the responsibility...

It can be implemented indeed.

All implemented on my head, right?

For a moment, the courage and impulse that had just been suppressed by cowardice resurfaced.

Anger rose from the heart, and evil was born.

"By the way, boss."

He almost squeezed out these two words from his teeth:

"Give me another anonymous phone card with a short contract... and a small bottle of sake."

Hearing this request, the convenience store owner smiled and lowered his head quickly, pulling out a phone card from a pile of phone cards:

"7500 yuan per card, with 5000 phone credits, and you can't recharge if you use it up... Including sake and water... a total of 10,000 yuan"

Obviously, the profit here is quite lucrative, and there should be a lot of room for bargaining.

But Yin Zhongxian didn't care about that anymore, and paid without saying a word.

The store owner took a few banknotes, carefully checked them against the window, and the smile on his face became brighter.

Then he took a bottle of wine and a disposable plastic cup from the shelf next to him:

"Young man, don't look so sad, come and have a drink..."

As the saying goes, alcohol makes cowards brave.

Yin Zhongxian didn't ask for the cup from the store owner, but blew a bottle of sake directly into the bottle mouth.

Then, with a little bit of alcohol, he found a secluded place and made the phone call that affected his life...
