Chapter 256: The Steel Cable Has Been Moved

Yun Zhe, you need to figure out: it's no longer about money now; we've reached a certain height, so money fundamentally can't solve all of this.

But.

Xiao Yunzhe's words hadn't finished when suddenly Xiao Ming's phone rang, and Xiao Yunzhe merely gestured to Xiao Ming.

Then he put the phone to his ear.

Hello, Jingrou, what's wrong? Anything happen?

Dad, what's going on? How did a bunch of people suddenly come and shut down my company?

You, what did you say? You shut down your company?

Yeah, they said Minghui Group had financial problems, and our company was also implicated, so they temporarily won't let us operate.

I understand, it's because I indeed have some problems on my end; are you with Yuchun?

She hasn't come today; she's probably at home. What's going on? Did something happen to the company?

Alright, don't worry about that for now; hurry home. Remember, I'll tell you this: don't go online doing livestream sales during this period, because we're in the eye of the storm.

Dad, what's going on?

No problem, just a small issue; Dad should resolve it soon. Alright, listen to me, hurry home. Remember, if there's nothing going on during this period, don't appear in public. Understand?

Okay, I got it.

After saying that, Xiao Jingrou didn't continue questioning and just hastily hung up the phone.

No way, Jingrou's company was also sealed off? This, the scope is too broad.

I didn't expect things to become this serious; if so, it seems our opponent this time is very strong.

What should we do? The company is urgently in need of staff right now, and Minghui Group's merger is also imminent.

Xiao Yunzhe suddenly had no idea.

Following Xiao Ming's side, he seemed never to have experienced such a thing.

Moreover, if he goes through this, it's indeed a painful experience.

He saw Xiao Ming just walking back and forth in the room, and didn't know what he was thinking about this matter.

Just then, his phone suddenly rang.

He picked up the phone, glanced at it, and then hastily pressed the answer key.

What's up? Already got a result so fast?

General Manager Xiao, the survey personnel have just come over, and I've already reported to them that there are some abnormal liquids; they've already extracted some liquids from the steel cable.

Oh, what did they say on site?

They said it's a highly corrosive liquid, and if it stays on the steel cable for more than six hours, it will completely corrode it.

So that means someone did this intentionally, right?

That's right; the other side also thinks so, so they've taken it for testing to confirm what it is.

I ask you, recently, have you had any feuds with anyone at the construction site? Also, have you withheld payment for other projects or owed goods?

No, General Manager Xiao, you know our company has such strong backing and ample funds, so how could we owe anyone even a cent? We haven't owed anything, and we truly have no feuds.

Then what would this person be doing it for?

General Manager Xiao, then what should I do now?

Do nothing; temporarily seal off the construction site, forbid anyone from approaching; also, wait for the test results from that side, then clarify what's going on.

General Manager Xiao, should we call the police?

No need; for now don't call the police, and I believe if we don't, someone will handle it anyway. Forget it, let's not think about this now; we'll decide after the results come out.

After speaking, the project manager hung up the phone directly.

Dad, what test results? What liquid?

I suspect this construction site incident was done intentionally by someone.

What? Someone did it intentionally? Then, was the elevator also deliberately dropped?

Yes, it's intentional, but I really want to know how he could calculate all this, and how he knew that at that time, that person would be on the elevator.

That steel cable has been corroded by the liquid; if so, anyone could ride the elevator there and possibly fall, but why did it happen to such an important person?

So I feel he timed this too precisely; that precision really frightens me.

Dad, what next? What should we do? If this is really a frame-up, we just need to clarify things, right? Why go through all this trouble?

No, if we don't find the person who framed us, we'll never get to the bottom of this, understand?

But but this isn't our doing, and they can already test it; those liquids have nothing to do with us.

You don't understand, Yun Zhe, in business we value integrity; even if you didn't do this, since it happened at your site, if you don't give a full account, public opinion could crush you.

After hearing that, Xiao Yunzhe just nodded blankly.

Although I've had some business experience before, it's only superficial.

Only when truly by Xiao Ming's side does he seem to be exposed to higher-end things.

And now, in an instant, such a big thing happened, so Xiao Yunzhe at this moment suddenly felt lost again.

Alright, don't do anything; tonight, dare to go out with me?
