Chapter 172: There really is such a good thing under heaven!

If it weren't for Li Jiaci suddenly wanting to get into the furniture industry, Wang Zong wouldn't have painstakingly schemed all this.

After all, it's all the fault of this greedy Li Jiaci!

Wang Zong gritted his teeth in hatred.

"Damn it!"

"You want me to back down? No way!"

"I'll take the second option!"

"Let's sue!"

Liu Yanxi gave a contemptuous smile.

"Sure!"

"Then let's sue!"

"But you'll need to hire a few more lawyers!"

"Because more than one person is suing you!"

Upon hearing that,

Wang Zong stared at her, dumbfounded, and asked blankly: "Besides that Boss Liu, who else?"

Liu Yanxi spread her palm and counted on her fingers for him to hear.

"Boss Liu is just the first!"

"The second is the person who broke out in a rash all over from lying on the sofa you sold!"

"The third is the boss of Shiqiang Mucai Chang!"

"The fourth is the boss of Jiaju cheng!"

"The fifth is your driver!"

"The sixth..."

She hadn't even finished counting yet.

Wang Zong hurriedly interrupted: "No, wait a moment!"

"What's up?"

"I can understand the first few, but damn, why is my driver getting involved in this mess?"

"He says you've been exploiting workers and using violence against him; hearing you were detained, he rushed to the hospital for an injury check!"

"What the hell?!"

Wang Zong was so shocked he couldn't speak.

Even the little lapdog at his side stepped on him.

Is there still any point in pursuing this lawsuit?

Liu Yanxi asked lightly: "Do you still want to hear more?"

"I'm not pursuing this lawsuit!"

"I'll take the first option and just pay compensation!"

Wang Zong waved his hand, wearing a dejected expression.

"That works too!"

Liu Yanxi smiled brightly.

……

A few days later.

Li Jiaci received the news from Hong Bo.

Wang Zong's furniture factory failed the market supervision bureau's inspection and was ordered to cease operations for rectification.

As soon as this news came out,

The several unscrupulous timber suppliers that sold wood to Wang Zong shut down overnight and fled.

This left the already uncompetitive Shiqiang Mucai Chang as the sole dominant player.

Li Jiaci could even laugh in his sleep.

He didn't do anything at all!

Those people rushed over on their own to bring him benefits!

"Hong Bo, is Wang Zong's furniture factory still open?"

Upon hearing that, Hong Bo scoffed, shook his head, and said: "Just Boss Liu alone would bankrupt him; where would he get extra money to renovate the furniture factory?"

Li Jiaci then asked: "Does Jia Fengyuan not care about him either?"

"Heh, Jia Fengyuan's Jiaju cheng has suffered severe reputational damage due to Wang Zong's fault; they've completely fallen out, and all shares and such have been completely cleared out!"

"Jia Fengyuan is still hounding Wang Zong for compensation, trying to pin all these days' losses on him!"

"In my view, these two are bound to clash!"

"Who knows, Wang Zong might become the second Zheng Degui!"

"Silently, he'd just vanish without a trace!"

Hong Bo said while pulling Li Jiaci into the office.

Then he turned, closed the door to block the cold wind, and continued: "Boss, the workshops are almost done; with the good weather these days, the cement dries fast—I'd say at most two days to move all the machinery in!"

"Hmm, just get the money you need from Xiao Liu!"

Li Jiaci sat down and warmed his hands.

Hong Bo nodded.

He poured himself a cup of hot water, squatted by the stove, and said: "My uncle has listed everything we need to buy; later I'll tell Huzi and the others—I'll handle the leather market, and have them wholesale wood oil and spray paint and such!"

Li Jiaci added: "Qiangzi goes to Bei Bang Bian Mao Shichang every day; the factory's needed lighting fixtures can be brought back by him, and prices are cheap there!"

Got it!

Hong Bo blew on the hot water in the cup.

He carefully moved close and took a sip.

He still shivered from the scald.

He simply put the cup on the ground, moved a small stool to sit in front of the stove, rubbed his hands and asked: "Boss, these things will be ready in three days; we should also pick a date to announce the grand opening of the furniture factory!"

I've checked the almanac, and it says next Tuesday is a good day!

Then let's set it for next Tuesday!

Okay!

The two agreed immediately.

Li Jiaci smiled and said: "Hong Bro, on the day the furniture factory opens, I plan to treat everyone to a good meal at Spring Happiness Restaurant, then go to Wang Zhen's Song and Dance Hall to have fun at night; you bring your wife and kids then, and join us for the festivities!"

That's good, my wife will definitely come!

Hong Bo said happily.

At that moment, Wang Yingna curled up and slipped into the office.

So cold, so cold...

Hong Bro, move over a bit!

Make space for me!

As soon as Wang Yingna finished speaking.

Hong Bo immediately gave her the stool he was sitting on.

You guys chat, I'll go first to discuss things with Huzi and the others!

Sure!

Wang Yingna sat down smiling.

She quickly took her hands out of her pockets and warmed them by the stove.

Li Jiaci was writing something on the coffee table with pen and paper.

She glanced and asked: "Jiaci Bro, what are you busy with?"

The furniture factory opens next Tuesday; I've written down the names and phone numbers of the invited guests, you'll notify them one by one later!

Oh...

Wang Yingna responded.

But when she took the list Li Jiaci handed over, she couldn't help but laugh.

At first glance the list seemed to have many people.

But about half of them are their own people.

Jiaci Bro, are you teasing me?

Zhao Chen, Li Yihu, Zhang Chuqiang, Wang Lan, Liu Jiang...

What's the purpose of these names?

Wang Yingna asked amusedly.

Li Jiaci looked at her seriously.

Don't our own people need an invitation?

You say they're our own people, do they still need an invitation?

Li Jiaci wanted to speak but held back.

Only saw Wang Yingna pick up the pen on the coffee table, about to erase those names.

Li Jiaci hurriedly pressed her hand, saying: "Listen to me, just notify them one by one; I'll reimburse the phone bill!"

Are you okay?

Just call them in and say a word, isn't that enough?

Wang Yingna couldn't understand.

Li Jiaci kept his hand on hers without moving.

The two stared at each other.

After a while.

Only then did Wang Yingna say in pain: "Jiaci Bro, you're hurting me!"

Be obedient!

Only then did Li Jiaci release his hand and then pat her head.

Fine, fine, fine!

I'll call them one by one to notify them!

Wang Yingna pursed her lips, tidying the bangs he messed up.

She didn't know how much this list meant to Li Jiaci.

And what those names meant.

Outside the window, the busy silhouettes of the brothers flashed by.

Li Jiaci's gaze followed them.

But from beside the brothers he saw layers of afterimages.

Those were the brothers who died tragically in his past life.

But it was only an instant; in the time Li Jiaci blinked, those afterimages disappeared again.

But his eyes reddened.

His nose tip felt a surge of soreness.

"Jiaci ge, what are you looking at?"

Wang Yingna nudged his arm.

Li Jiaci came to his senses, immediately suppressing his complex emotions, feigning calm as he shook his head: "Nothing, hurry up and call!"

"Got it!"
