Chapter 570: Scam

"Dad, why are you here?"

He Yuzhu looked at his old father in surprise. Didn't this old man say he was going out to play this morning? Why did he end up playing in a nursing home?

Now, I am having a good chat with an aunt in a nursing home.

When He Daqing saw that his son had discovered him, he felt a little embarrassed, and even his paralyzed face, which had not changed for thousands of years, could not be maintained.

In order not to arouse the resentment of the old lady, He Daqing quickly took his son to the side and explained.

"Ahem, well, I'm just here to play. All my old neighbors are here. Where would I be if I didn't come here?"

He Yuzhu looked at him with a strange look, then glanced at the neighbor ten meters away, and then thought of the two old people he had just seen sitting on a bench, almost touching each other.

That mood was extremely complicated, and he was not a fool. Anyone with eyes could see the closeness between the two old men at a glance.

However, this is the old man's own feelings, and it is not easy for him to interfere, so he can only say one thing.

"Dad...just take care of yourself."

Anyway, He Yuzhu really had no choice about his father. He thought to himself: Well, looking at this situation, there will probably be an aunt in the family soon.

He shook his head helplessly and walked away consciously.

He thought to himself that it would be better not to disturb the pair of sunset lovers.



"Why are there so few people today?"

Jia Yi looked at the elderly people in the courtyard and felt that the number was not right. Although he did not count them, he could tell at a glance that the number of people was much smaller than before.

Even if there are some old people working as consultants at the training school opposite, it is impossible that there are only such a few people left.

Moreover, the weather is not hot either, so the elderly probably like to go out and stretch their muscles.

This is not right!

Yi Zhonghai has exhausted his teaching schedule this month, so he is staying in a nursing home.

He did answer the question.

"Part of it went to training school, and part of it..."

He said with a hesitant look on his face.

Jia Yi felt something was wrong and quickly asked.

"What happened to the other part?"

Yi Zhonghai frowned and organized his words.

"Recently, many people have entered nursing homes to sell beds..."

Upon hearing this, Jia Yi suddenly had a very bad feeling and subconsciously thought that those people were liars.

"Speaking of high-tech, magnetic health products..."

Okay, it's a shame. As soon as he heard this, Jia Yi knew that these were indeed liars, and they also specialized in defrauding these elderly people in need.

Jia Yi asked with a frown.

"How did these people... get in?"

This is Jia Yi's most pressing question. The gatekeepers and access system in nursing homes are no joke.

If they weren't relatives of the elderly people in the hospital, they wouldn't be able to get in at all.

Even, in order to avoid subsequent troubles, the immediate family members of the elderly are registered with detailed information.

Yi Zhonghai explained with a wry smile.

"At first, they lingered at the entrance of the nursing home and came into contact with the elderly people who went out. Later, there were more and more of them, and some of them were actually related to some of the elderly people in the nursing home."

Jia Yi was silent, he could already foresee the direction of development of things.

"Later, under the cover of some old people, some unrelated people also came in. I always felt that something was wrong with these people. They took the old people out to play, get massages, and soak in hot springs..."

"Then they promote how excellent their products are and how they can help the elderly stay healthy and young."

"Oh, by the way, it costs 15,000 yuan to buy a mattress. But after joining, you can get the right to promote the product. As long as you introduce others to buy, you can get a 6% dividend."

Yi Zhonghai was a little envious as he said this. After all, this could indeed make money. However, deep in his heart, there was always a voice telling him that something was wrong.

Jia Yi had completely reacted at this time.

Isn’t this a Ponzi scheme, a pyramid scheme?

However, he soon discovered some contradictions.

"That's not right. Is the old man in the courtyard so rich? Why didn't I know?"

Yi Zhonghai also gave an explanation for this.

"Haha, one person's money is not enough, but a few old people can form a partnership, or even find their children, relatives and friends to form a partnership. I heard that this company has also set up scholarships in some universities to attract young college students to enter this industry.

"

Jia Yi asked with a somewhat solemn expression.

"What company are they from?"

Yi Zhonghai thought carefully, his memory was a little fuzzy, and he said a little uncertainly.

"I heard that it came from the island country, and it was called Laifu. According to them, it had entered Shenzhen a few years ago, and the participants there were making crazy money, so they opened a branch here.

"

Jia Yi was in a bad mood at this time. This kind of routine is so disgusting. The longer it goes, the more victims there will be. Only the top of the chain can make big money.

Moreover, when the thunder finally breaks out, the culprit will definitely abscond with the money.

It is said that Jia Yi should persuade these old people immediately.

However, Jia Yi also knew very well that there was nothing he could do to persuade these people, and they could not be persuaded. They had all been tempted by money and even brainwashed.

It's not something you can convince with just a few words.

Even, under the attraction of money, they may think that Jia Yi is also interested and wants to get involved and doesn't want them to make money.

Even if someone feels something is wrong, in the face of the real dividends, the children can deny it, let alone Jia Yi, a stranger.

Therefore, he is not prepared to do such useless work.

Before leaving, Jia Yi reminded Yi Zhonghai that this was a scam and asked him not to be fooled. He also told him not to worry about anything and he would take care of it.

Then, he found He Hui, told her what had happened, and asked her to issue a notice in the company, warning all employees not to participate.

Then, he entered a phone number in one go. After all, after so many years of dialing, he already knew this phone number by heart.

After more than ten seconds, the call was connected, and Jia Yi spoke directly.

"Hey, Sister Ting."

Zhu Ting was stunned for a moment before responding.

"Oh, it's me, Xiao Yi, what's wrong?"

Jia Yi stopped talking nonsense and made an appointment directly.

"Do you have time? Come to the old place and let's chat."

"good."

Zhu Ting agreed simply and neatly.

After so many years of getting along, she could hear it.

Jia Yi's tone was solemn, and it was obvious that something big had happened, so she called her secretary directly to ask her secretary to rearrange her schedule.

Although the old man retired a few years ago, the old man still arranged a place for Zhu Ting before retiring.

After all, Zhu Ting is still very young and should not accompany a retired old man like him.

Moreover, she still keeps in touch with Jia Yi.

Zhu Ting arrived very quickly and arrived at the hotel box in less than an hour.

She asked eagerly as soon as she entered the door.

"What happened? You called me over in such a hurry."

Jia Yi didn't answer, but asked her a question.

“Have you ever heard of a Ponzi scheme?”

Zhu Ting frowned, feeling that this word was so familiar. She had seen it in a piece of information, but she didn't know the specific content.

When Jia Yi saw her like this, he knew she didn't know.

"The Ponzi scheme is actually 'tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall', or it can also be said to be a 'white wolf with nothing'."

"In short, it is to use the money of new investors to pay interest and short-term returns to old investors to create the illusion that it is really making money, and then defraud more investments."

"This company is a little different. It uses high technology and health care as its reasons, so it will be more hidden and longer-lasting."

"However, these products are all fake and have no effect at all, but they are sold to deceived people at high prices."

Zhu Ting suddenly understood.

Jia Yi continued.

"Now, no, it should be said that this kind of scam came from the island country a few years ago."

Zhu Ting's face was a little confused. Jia Yi knew that she was not aware of the seriousness, so he reminded her.
