Chapter 4: Honest People Are Not Easy to Bully

  Wealth and beauty beyond measure

  "You have been fired!"

  Zhang Yang was not surprised at all, this is something that has been expected for a long time, there's nothing good to say about it.

  "Give me back my deposit!" Zhang Yang said.

  He didn't come back for work either, with his X-ray eyes, he knew that his bright future was just around the corner, and this small temple could no longer hold a great Buddha like him.

  "Are you still asking me for a deposit? I haven't even pursued the losses caused by your absenteeism yet! Do you know how many goods didn't arrive on time, how many goods weren't delivered to customers on schedule? Not making you compensate for the losses is already letting you off easy, and now you're asking for a deposit?! Bah!"

  Zhang Yang's face turned gloomy, his family was not wealthy, his parents were laid off early, and they worked as temporary workers from east to west to support the family. So after graduating from high school, Zhang Yang resolutely packed up his luggage and went out to work!

  He only brought 2,000 yuan from home, one thousand of which was earned by his father's hard work on the construction site bending steel bars, and he actually embezzled his money.

  "Someone with the surname Ma, you're getting on my nerves!" With a loud slap, Zhang Yang's hand forcefully hit the table.

  "Let me tell you, I just got out of detention, if you don't give me the money today! I'll make sure you're done for, no big deal if I go back in again!" Zhang Yang said menacingly, pointing at the boss.

  In the logistics company, only a few female employees who answered phones and those guys he drank with that day were left, none of them were there, they should have all gone out to deliver goods. Zhang Yang scolded without any scruples, if the money is not returned, he really has the idea of beating this guy up!

  Ma didn't expect that the boy who usually looked so gentle and timid would have such a violent side! Especially what he said after coming out of detention, it scared Ma to death!

  What is a detention center?

  Everyone thinks that they will despise and scold, but where is the good person? However, when a person who has been released from detention stands in front of you, the sudden impact is overwhelming, making it impossible to remain calm.

  Especially the scar on Zhang Yang's face, which was originally a faint mark, became clear when he got angry. His usual calm face looked extremely ferocious to Old Master Ma, making him feel chilled to the bone!

  "Have you just been released from detention?" Mr. Ma asked cautiously.

  Zhang Yang snorted, pointing to his own head and said: "Do you see the scar on my head? I'm telling you, I risked my life to take down a scoundrel. If you don't believe me, let's try it out today and see if I dare to deal with you!"

  There is a saying: The soft are afraid of the hard, the hard are afraid of the ruthless, the ruthless are afraid of the reckless, and the reckless are afraid of those who have nothing to lose.

  Zhang Yang suddenly became tough, while Old Horse turned soft instead.

  "That little Zhang, we're at least host and guest for a while, why make such an unpleasant fuss, it's just 1,000 yuan, you go to the finance room now!" Old Master Ma said with a smile.

  "Good for you!" Zhang Yang said with a glance.

  Then he swaggered out of the general manager's office and walked towards the finance room.

  Old Horse gritted his teeth and dialed a number: "Little Niu, tell me what's going on with Zhang Yang. He hasn't shown up to work for so many days."

  The day after Zhang Yang didn't come, Old Master Ma decided to fire him and recruit others. From start to finish, he never asked Zhang Yang the reason for his absence. Does it matter if he comes or not? Anyway, with a deposit of 1,000 yuan in hand, he's making a profit himself.

  "Was he detained?" "What, he beat someone until they were covered in blood?" "And even bit the other person's ear?"

  "Alright, don't say anymore, I know!" Old Master Ma hastily hung up the phone.

  Drenched in sweat, he called the finance office and instructed: "Return Zhang Yang's deposit to him and hurry up and let him go!"

  After handing over, Old Horse thought with a lingering fear, damn it's unlucky, how did he get such a jinx coming to his door, what a pity about that one thousand deposit.

  This horse boss is a notorious miser, that one thousand is what every courier has to pay, saying it's a deposit, but he never returns it. Unexpectedly, this time he encountered such a scourge, which made him break out in a cold sweat.

  Thinking of Zhang Yang staring at him with red eyes earlier, he was restless until he heard the front desk say that Zhang Yang had taken his money and left, and only then did Old Master Ma finally let out a sigh of relief and sat down.

  Standing at the gate, he turned his head to look at the four big characters "Wan Tong Logistics" on the door of the market house. Zhang Yang sneered coldly: "I'll be back sooner or later! You fired me without distinction between good and bad, and you still want to cheat my parents' hard-earned money! Surnamed Ma, let's see who will fall, I won't let your company go bankrupt, or I'm not called Zhang Yang!"

  With a thousand yuan in his pocket, Zhang Yang's heart surged with emotion. This money was the hard-earned savings of his parents. Although it wasn't a large sum after he gained his powers, Zhang Yang would never let someone else take what belonged to his parents without a fight.

  Coming from an ordinary family, he cherished every penny he earned. That day, he went out to drink because when he was about to leave home, his parents repeatedly reminded him to get along well with his colleagues, otherwise Zhang Yang, who rarely drank, would not have gone to the restaurant to eat and drink!

  Could it be that I had too much to drink and said something that offended someone, Zhang Yang flashed a hint of doubt!

  This reason was immediately ruled out by him. Even if he said something unpleasant, it wouldn't lead to someone smashing a bottle on him, what kind of grudge is this!

  Forget it, don't think about it anymore, it will be figured out sooner or later, go buy lottery tickets first!

  After having X-ray vision, Zhang Yang kept thinking about how to use his X-ray vision to make a fortune during his detention!

  After considering many methods, the feeling of incoordination between his left and right eyes made Zhang Yang decide to use the most secure and stable method, which is buying lottery tickets, specifically scratch-off tickets!

  After all, he can't cover one eye to play mahjong in the activity center, or cover one eye to gamble with stones?

  Even an idiot knows there's something wrong with his eyes!

  Zhang Yang has never bought scratch-off lottery tickets, not because he didn't want to win, but because when he was younger, he had bought countless lottery tickets and except for winning a consolation prize of laundry detergent, he hadn't won any other prizes, so he gave up on buying lottery tickets early on!

  But now it's different, with X-ray eyes, those lottery tickets are like open ones for me, just waiting for me to take the money.

  And lowering one's head to look at the lottery, who will notice whether his eyes are closed or open, let alone some people even closing both eyes to try their luck!

  Looking at the lottery center in front of him, Zhang Yang excitedly rushed in like he was going to withdraw money from a bank!

  The lottery station is very large, with two long tables placed there, and several people are sitting there holding pencils, scratching away! There are also several people staring at the double-color ball lottery numbers on the wall, studying something.

  A middle-aged woman in front of the computer said without lifting her head: "What are you buying? Double color ball or 3D?"

  "Is there scratch-off lottery?"

  The woman pointed to the wall and said: "Look for yourself, which one to buy? There are 5 yuan, 10 yuan, and 20 yuan ones!"

  Zhang Yang looked at various redemption rules for a while, made sure he understood them, and asked: "Can I take out several 5-yuan ones and pick one?"

  The woman nodded and took out a stack of them, putting them on the table, saying: "These are all five yuan each! Take your time to choose!"

  Zhang Yang flipped through the bills one by one, this one was 25 yuan, that one was 15, this one was 200 yuan, and this one was actually 1,000! All the winning ones, even if it was just 15 yuan, were picked out by Zhang Yang. Closing his right eye, the more he picked, the more there were, but the big prizes over 200 yuan were only two, the rest were all 15 or 25 yuan. Before Zhang Yang could find the 50,000 yuan prize, the time for his special ability was up, and his left eye returned to normal.

  Zhang Yang opened his right eye, rubbed his tired left eye, damn it, when can both eyes see through at the same time? It's like being a one-eyed dragon, so depressing!

  Zhang Yang looked at the clock on the wall with a desire to cry but no tears, it was only six or seven minutes, it seemed that he had wasted eight or nine minutes at home, why was he so stupid.

  Zhang Yang slapped his head in pain, hurting so much that he let out a loud cry. His head still spinning, damn it hurts!

  "Have you made your choice?" The woman said somewhat impatiently. It's just a few 50-cent things, who can see what's written inside? What's there to choose from?

  "Alright! Alright! That's all!" Zhang Yang said.

  The woman counted them and said: "There are twenty in total, one hundred yuan!"

  Zhang Yang took out 100 yuan from his pocket and handed it to the boss, then sat down on the long bench with the lottery ticket. He picked up a pencil from the table, scratched one off, and indeed won 15 yuan just like he had seen.

  With no unexpected events, Zhang Yang's hands moved faster and faster, scratching off one after another, the pencil in his hand seemed to be flying, getting faster and faster. Zhang Yang didn't even notice the passage of time, it was as if only a minute or tens of seconds had passed, all the scratch-off cards were scratched open by Zhang Yang.

  Looking at the lottery ticket in his hand, Zhang Yang's heart was racing with excitement.

  It was completely different from the excitement of getting superpowers, and it was also different from the feeling of seeing gold bars just now. Those things didn't have a big impact on Zhang Yang, after all, they were out of reach and didn't bring about any substantial changes for him.

  Until these scratch-offs were scratched off, Zhang Yang only realized that the money was finally going to be in hand, and his life was really going to be different from others!

  One thousand yuan bill, one eight hundred yuan bill, one two hundred yuan bill, six twenty-five yuan bills, and the remaining eleven are all fifteen yuan bills.

  Two thousand three hundred fifteen, spent one hundred yuan by myself, which is more than ten minutes of time, and earned two thousand two hundred fifteen yuan.

  Zhang Yang's hands were shaking, thinking of the hard work he did last month for a whole month, and he only got 1,500 yuan. This was just over ten minutes, more than what he earned in a month. Good heavens, is there still any justice in this world?

  After a good five or six minutes, Zhang Yang's excitement finally calmed down. He hesitated for a moment, then took out an 800 yuan note, a 200 yuan note, a 1000 yuan note, and a 25 yuan note and walked over.

  The remaining lottery tickets were all kicked into his pocket! Those are money!

  He entered society early and spent half a month in detention, Zhang Yang matured a lot.

  He bought twenty scratch-off lottery tickets and kept four of them for himself, which won prizes that weren't too conspicuous. All he could say was that his luck was a bit better than others, and the prizes were all face value, just enough to get by. If he had taken all twenty tickets and they had all been winners, even if it was only over two thousand yuan and none of them were the big five-thousand-yuan prize, the chances of being suspected would have been much higher!

  One is lucky, all of them being right is a problem!

  Such an obvious truth, Zhang Yang naturally understands!

  Clairvoyance is the trump card that changes one's fate, Zhang Yang knows such an astonishing secret, not even his parents can say it, the more people who know, the more danger there is! Therefore, he must be doubly careful and cannot arouse others' suspicion.

  As expected, he handed over several scratch-off lottery tickets to the boss's wife, who checked them and said: "Young man, you're quite lucky!"

  "It's a good luck for the first purchase!" Zhang Yang said calmly, but only careful people would notice that his voice was trembling slightly.

  "Hey boss lady, how much did you get?" others in the room shouted.

  The boss's wife smiled and said: "Not much, just two thousand! This bundle has already come out with two thousand, maybe there is a big prize, and there are still twenty or so left, who wants to try?"

  A middle-aged man shouted: "Count how many sheets there are, I want them all!"

  Seeing no one suspected anything, Zhang Yang let out a sigh of relief and urged, "Boss's wife, hand over my prize money, I have something else to attend to!"

  After Zhang Yang came out of the lottery station, he walked through several streets before finding a staircase to come down from. His heart was still pounding with a feeling of stealing something that lingered in his mind.

  This is not buying lottery tickets, it's simply robbery!
