Recently, a very good sister cried to me that the money she had saved over the years had been cheated out of pyramid schemes, that she felt that there was no point in living, and that she felt that life was full of traps.
Pyramid schemes are the topic of everyone's talk, many people have built up their savings for many years, and many people have lost coffin books for it.
A few years ago, I met a handsome guy on the Internet, because it was a fellow countryman, and we talked very hotly.
He said that he was the general manager of a certain company, with more than a hundred employees under his hands, and I said self-deprecatingly that he was a fellow countryman, you were the boss, and I was a nanny.
Later, we slowly became acquainted, talked about us being single, and he said let me work in his company, maybe we could have the opportunity to become a couple.
I promised to go to him to see, and vanity made me want to go and see, thinking that if I had a chance, maybe I wouldn't have to dream.
With a good dream, I came to his city, and the car he drove was a BMW, tall and handsome. Of course, he saw me and praised me for not being a nanny, but like a businessman on a business trip.
Because we chatted online for a while, we didn't seem strange at all, the driver drove the car, he took me to eat lobsters, big crabs, and also went to a lot of local excursion areas.
Three days passed, and he took me to meet many friends, most of whom were fellow countrymen, but I didn't see any of his companies. The accommodation arranged for me was a single room, and I often saw a lot of strange eyes when I went out of the room door, but they didn't talk to me much.
On the fourth day, he said that he officially took me into his company, in fact, he changed a room, there were several people in the room, all suits and ties, no other equipment, just a big blackboard, a few stools. Because it was summer, there was an electric fan blowing at me.
They all respected me and called me Sister Xu, and a young man with glasses began to write down a lot of numbers on the blackboard, many equal signs and unequal signs, and then the sub-lines of each number and so on.
Although I hadn't read any books, after listening to it for a few minutes, I understood what it meant, that is, to let me take how much money to be a manager and director, and then introduce my friends' friends to re-enter the shares, and I drew money layer by layer in the middle.
It's MLM!
I immediately sweated, I entered the pyramid scheme nest, I often heard people say that it is more difficult to go out than to ascend to the sky, unless you take out the bottom of your family.
I pretended to be too hot and wanted to go out to catch my breath, and as soon as I got to the door I found two people following me. I took out my phone and pretended to make a call, and went back to the house.
On the fifth day, another teacher was given a lecture, and the house may be too hot and a fan was added.
When the teacher lectured, someone applauded from time to time, and I was distracted from the class since I was a child, and I couldn't listen to it at this time.
When cooking at noon, I took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help the two elder sisters who cooked, and I wanted to chat with them, but they were unwilling to say anything.
However, I made a few of the best dishes they especially like to eat, there is a fat big sister who took advantage of no one to quietly say to me, "I see that you seem to be a friend of the boss, you are a kind person at first sight, you can go out and get out of here quickly." ”
I am grateful to this big sister who talks to me, I can't sleep at night, what should I do, call the family, I can't bother them. Calling friends, as if I had few friends who could tell the truth, called the police, and feared that the police did not come, I hung up first.
On the sixth day, he came without showing up for two days, he let the kitchen cook several dishes, poured me beer, and asked me what I understood in these two days?
I said I get it, your company is a pyramid scheme!
He said it wasn't pyramid schemes, it was marketing, it was a new type of industry, an opportunity that only the business elite could get.
I took a dry beer and really wanted to spit him in the face, and I said that I was an elementary school level, a nanny, and I would become a business elite.
He looked at me and said you're different from everyone else!
What's different, I can't stand it anymore, i flipped the table over, "You liar, obviously it is a pyramid scheme and so moral, you say that as long as you take out tens of thousands of yuan to invest, you can earn more than one million in three years, just ask, who in today's society can not take out tens of thousands of yuan, if it is true as you said, you can recover more than a million after a few years without doing anything, please ask Chinese still need to work, is there still a poor person in China?" ”
I shouted out the words that I had been holding in my heart for the past few days, he didn't get angry, he asked me to sit down, poured me a glass of water, "You are really different from others..."!
What's different, you didn't let me go to the class?
He said there was no restriction on my freedom, no collection of my mobile phone, and someone to take care of my life for several days.
I touched the mobile phone on my body, indeed, I heard that the mobile phone that entered the MLM nest had been confiscated earlier.
"Would you like to join our marketing team?" He asked me.
"I'm willing to join, and I don't have any money!"
The ghost is willing to join, don't say I don't have money, I won't join if I have money.
The two eldest sisters came in and cleaned up the food on the ground, he was not angry at all, or very gentlemanly said: "You have no money, but I want to help you!" ”
How can I help?
He continued, "Can you introduce your relatives in without taking money?" ”
I said I went out to work as a teenager, and after so many years of mixing with a nanny, do you think any relatives will believe that I can get rich with me?
He said you also have a lot of friends, have friends come in to make money together, hello them!
I said that I was married far away, single for many years, my in-laws did not love, my mother's family did not kiss, and I still had friends, I could hide as far away from me as I could.
He saw that I couldn't get in, and he wanted to say something without opening his mouth, and finally he said that he really wanted me to stay, and hoped that I would work with him to make the company bigger.
At this time, he looked so obscene and unbearable in my eyes, and I said let me cheat money with you, and eat and drink with other people's hard-earned money, and my conscience could not do it. Besides, you deceive people without even a little physical object, just by talking to the heavens can drop money, do you think it is possible, anyway, I don't believe it.
He didn't say a word, he left without a word, and when he left, I found that I had two more janitors at the door.
I had been restless all night, I didn't know what to do next, I didn't know if I could leave this MLM nest, I didn't know if I could still see my family.
When it was hazy, I dragged the suitcase out of the door, I wanted to go out, I wanted to see if I could go out, the strange thing was that there was no one at the door, I dragged the suitcase all the way out of the door of the community where they lived.
I was sweating profusely, terrified that I had come out of the pyramid scheme nest, and when I looked back for a moment, I saw his familiar figure, waving at me in the far corner.
Later, I often heard people talk about the horror of pyramid schemes, and often heard people talk about how much money was pitted, and I often thought that maybe he and his gang had entered the police station early.
Maybe my luck comes from my sanity, my lack of greed, maybe more because he doesn't want to hurt my fellow countryman!
Pie can never fall from heaven!
