Feng Guiyu was taken directly into the interrogation room, and then his interrogation began on an expedited basis; now they had to seize every second to round up this entire group.

This time, Xia Zhangqing was personally overseeing the situation, and not only that, but they had also received strong support from the provincial level; it could be said that this tumor must be excised this time.

Many people were actually feeling fortunate now, especially people like Xia Zhangqing, as they had not expected this group of people to be so bold.

Furthermore, they had not detected such matters, and once these people succeeded in their actions, they might have gained enormous benefits.

Then, no matter what happened in the future, this path would be very difficult to block.

Once someone has tasted the sweetness, let alone illegal and criminal acts, there are many people who would scramble to do things that lead to a firing squad.

Therefore, nipping all of this in the bud is the best outcome, and with this case definitely being handled strictly and severely, it will also serve as a warning to those who come after.

Zhang Ran had stayed in his office until two in the afternoon, and after checking the time, he felt it was about time.

However, Zhang Ran was not in a hurry to go to the conference room at this moment; the matter had already reached a general conclusion, and it only required Zhang Ran to handle the final details.

But Zhang Ran felt hungry now, so he prepared to go eat first.

"Zhao Feng, let's eat together. How is the taste of the company cafeteria?" Zhang Ran asked with a smile.

Zhao Feng immediately stood up to follow him and replied, "The taste of the food is actually quite good. The company did not outsource the cafeteria; they spent their own money to run it."

If it wasn't outsourced, that meant the trickery involved wasn't too great, though to say there was none at all would be impossible.

Just looking at the group of people still in the conference room, if you picked any one of them at random, you would certainly be able to find some minor faults.

However, these were all trivial matters, and Zhang Ran couldn't be bothered to pursue them.

If one were to truly be pedantic about such things, then the company would have no one left.

Moreover, for someone in Zhang Ran's position, they actually tend to consider things from many angles.

Just like these little tricks, from a certain perspective, they are also good; for example, if Zhang Ran wanted to take someone down, then this would be a very good excuse, rather than taking them down for no reason at all.

This is the thinking pattern of someone in a superior position, it's just that Zhang Ran usually doesn't think of himself as any kind of superior.

"That's good. By the way, from this morning until now, have you noticed anything?" Zhang Ran began to test him.

Zhao Feng did not rush to answer, but thought for a long time, and only after Zhang Ran and the others had finished getting their food did he answer the question.

"I discovered that the problems within the company seem very serious. I don't know if this expression is accurate, but from what I see now, it seems everyone has some problems," Zhao Feng said.

Zhang Ran nodded and said, "You aren't wrong to say that, but if you think about it carefully, are these problems serious?"

"Not serious, they are all small matters," Zhao Feng said.

"Correct, this is the essence of the matter. We can treat some small matters as if we haven't seen them. Of course, there are some prerequisites for these small matters, and this is something you need to grasp.

In the future, you need to help me keep an eye on Yaotian Pharmaceutical. You must not only put effort into this aspect but also choose to see but not speak regarding some small matters," Zhang Ran said.

He was truly afraid that Zhao Feng would be pedantic, bringing small matters out into the open, and then would Zhang Ran have to punish them or not?

If he punished them, the problem wouldn't actually be anything, but not punishing them would damage Zhao Feng's prestige, so there were some things he needed to make clear to Zhao Feng in advance.

"Also, if you encounter a situation like today's next time, then there is no need to say much—report it directly. At the same time, there is no need to show anyone any consideration. If you show them consideration in such matters, then you are slapping your own face. Do you understand?" Zhang Ran said.

"I understand," Zhao Feng nodded seriously.

Seeing that Zhao Feng truly understood, Zhang Ran did not dwell on this issue anymore and changed the subject, "The taste of this dish is really quite good. By the way, from now on, you should also include food safety issues within the cafeteria in your scope of supervision.

You can ignore other small matters, but if anyone dares to profit from food safety issues, then there is no need to show mercy."

"Alright, I understand."

The two of them chatted while eating their food just like that.

Just at this moment, someone suddenly came looking for them, "Master, how is the situation? Are you alright?"

The person who came was none other than Tao Liang, Zhao Feng's apprentice. Much of the evidence this time was thanks to him, though in the end, Zhao Feng chose to face this matter alone.

Seeing Tao Liang, Zhao Feng also became happy, "I am fine, the matter has been settled."

After finishing, he remembered something else and immediately said to Zhang Ran, "Mr. Zhang, this is my apprentice, Tao Liang. Being able to find all the evidence so quickly this time is all thanks to his help."

He was trying to claim credit for Tao Liang, and Tao Liang had indeed done quite a lot of work.

Tao Liang looked at Zhao Feng, feeling a bit confused; what was this...

Zhang Ran looked Tao Liang up and down, thought for a moment, and said, "How about this, when the time comes, let him join the Supervision Department, but for the time being, he can only serve as a team leader."

It wasn't that Zhang Ran was reluctant to give him a high position, but rather that there were considerations from several aspects.

The first is that Tao Liang is still young, and in many matters, he needs to be polished a little; achieving success overnight is not always a good thing.

Zhao Feng rising to the top in one step was because he had sufficient social experience and was already over forty; such a person would consider things from multiple angles when handling matters.

For instance, regarding this matter, Zhao Feng could have actually sought other channels; if nothing else, he could have gone directly to the media, and he believed many media outlets would be interested in such news.

At that point, it would be useless for anyone to protect them.

But Zhao Feng did not do that, or rather, he treated that step as his final trump card, because he knew that once this matter was exposed, the losses would not just be the company's, but also those of many people within the company who needed this salary to live.

If it were a young person like Tao Liang, perhaps at the very beginning, upon being mistreated or seeing the dark side, he might have exposed it in a fit of anger.

The second reason is that he cannot let Zhao Feng have complete control over the Supervision Department. Zhao Feng is fine now, but if power is too concentrated, it is hard to guarantee what problems might arise in the future.

This is also taking precautions against future trouble. In fact, overall, this should also be for Zhao Feng's own good, because when that time comes, Zhang Ran would not show Zhao Feng any mercy either.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Feng immediately said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang. Xiao Liang, why don't you thank Mr. Zhang?"

Tao Liang was a bit bewildered, but still subconsciously said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

Seeing that Tao Liang didn't quite understand, Zhao Feng whispered a reminder, "This is the company's Big Boss, Mr. Zhang."
