Chapter 359 : Jongharng Chioujen

The hometown of Chioujen and the friends who live with him, namely Yeuandong, was an extensive area. The vast Yeuandong was divided into thirty-six culturally diverse regions. Each region in Yeuandong had its own way. Therefore, there were various ways people greet. There was a way to bend the body. There were areas that were more familiar with the methods that apply in Tianjing.

Besides that, there were also several other ways. For example, by cupping the palms together and placing them in front of the chest when someone met other people. This method was also not uniform. There were areas where the palms should be clasped together, while there were areas where the palms were not.

If the palms were not clasping each other, then the two open palms should be touching each other. The fingers should also be tightly pressed against each other. And what's even more complicated was that the position of the fist or palm differs depending on who the person was meeting with. Both fists or palms were placed in front of the chest when meeting other people who are familiar. However, when dealing with strangers or people with high social status, the position of the palms or fists must be raised at the front of the mouth and nose.

Their home area in Yeuandong was a sub-region called Herbeenkedao. The custom that prevails in Herbeenkedao was even stranger. Every cultural community had its own way. Chioujen and his friends belong to a very expressive group of people. They were used to shaking hands or even hugging when they meet other people. In fact, it's not uncommon for them to kiss each other on the cheek if the two people who meet were family or know each other close enough.

Chioujen returned his attention to the person in front of him.

"My name is Mihgan Herfu," said the person. "Thank you for agreeing to meet me here."

"It is I who should be thanking you," said Chioujen.

The two of them then sat down on the sofa in the lobby of the apartment building.

"As I mentioned to Mr. Shimen that I found a wallet. There was no identification or anything in it, only a little money."

"Mr. Shimen has told me everything," Chioujen said.

The man opened his bag. He took out a wallet made of top quality leather.

"Hah?" Chioujen let out a muffled exclamation.

"What's wrong, Sir? Do you recognize this wallet?"

Chioujen looked at the wallet in disbelief. "When and where did you find this wallet?"

"This morning I found this wallet in a park near where I live."

"Which one, Sir?"

"Chingjoong Park."

Chioujen was surprised to hear the man's answer. He didn't know if this was a coincidence.

"Did you go to the park early in the morning?"

"Every morning I do exercise around the park."

"That place is a long way from here," Chioujen said. "May I take a closer look at the wallet, Sir?"

The man handed the leather wallet to Chioujen, who immediately examined it carefully.

"Here is my wallet, Sir! I lost this wallet about five months ago. But at that time, I was out of town. Since six months ago I was working in another city. How could this wallet fly back to this city on its own?" ?"

The person fell silent. He looked deep in thought. "Are you sure that your wallet was not lost in this town?"

"I'm absolutely sure, Sir!"

"Yes, then. I will return this wallet to you now. Is the amount of money currently in this wallet the same as the amount of money in your wallet when this wallet was lost?"

"I forgot how much money I kept in this wallet at the time." Chioujen shook his head. "The money is for you. As compensation for the hard work you have been willing to come all the way here."

The person shook his head. "No need Sir. I also came here because I happened to have a need. So I didn't incur any costs. I will return this wallet in its entirety to you."

Chioujen took the wallet back with mixed feelings.

"Then excuse me, Sir! I have to go home now. My house is quite far."

"Please, Sir. I'm waiting for my friend to come pick me up," said Chioujen. "Wait a minute, Sir. How can I contact you later?"

The man shook his head. "As I said, I'm not asking for anything in return."

"No, Sir. Maybe someday we can invite you if we have an event, or something like that.

The man thought for a moment before taking a wallet from his trouser pocket. "Here is my business card, Sir." He handed over a light blue business card.

Chioujen reached into his back pocket. He took the wallet that was there. After opening his wallet, he pulled out a light green business card and gave it to the man.

"Thank you, Sir! I will excuse myself."

"You are welcome, Sir!"
