Chapter 2451

And the names of people like Jiang Yinghui and Shen Zhongtian also made Su Xinghui feel that it was a case of "enemies are bound to meet." How was it that after arriving in Yanbei Province, he kept circling back to being at odds with these people?

However, this was also normal. For these red families, in order to maintain their status, they naturally needed sufficient money. And where did this money come from? Relying on doing business by the book? They were not like the Yu family, who encountered a monster like Su Xinghui, who helped them earn huge wealth in just a few years.

If they wanted to obtain sufficient benefits, they could naturally only use abnormal means to seize wealth, and the easiest wealth to obtain was naturally state-owned assets.

They only needed to use the power they held to continuously obtain wealth from those state-owned enterprises.

The main spheres of influence for the Jiang and Shen families were both in the north, and Yanbei Province, a province where large state-owned enterprises were clustered, was naturally their most important sphere of influence. Therefore, Su Xinghui's move against the Yanfang Group this time had exactly touched their restricted area.

As the saying goes, blocking someone's path to wealth is like killing their parents. But the work Su Xinghui was doing now was exactly meant to block the path to wealth for these red families. He already had deep hatred for them, and now it was a matter of life and death.

In order to defeat Su Xinghui and protect their wealth, they would naturally stop at nothing.

Looking at Yu Ruizhi sitting in front of him, Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Brother Yu, don't you think this is a bit too coincidental?"

Yu Ruizhi said, "Sigh, the cake is only this big. Guys like them who rely on this to eat, don't they have to take a bite? Who knew you wanted to snatch the cake out of their mouths? They have to fight for their lives, don't they?"

Su Xinghui shook his head and sighed. Yes, he would always be on the opposite side of their interests. As long as he wanted to do his job well and be a good cadre, they would sooner or later have a day of direct conflict. This was an unavoidable and even more irreconcilable contradiction.

Su Xinghui said, "No matter what, this cake cannot be left for them to gnaw on anymore. If they keep gnawing, the country will cease to be a country!"

Yu Ruizhi said, "Right, these incompetent cowards only know how to gnaw on this ready-made cake, making Yanbei Province a mess. If this continues, what will Yanbei Province become? Don't worry, I will definitely help you fight them to your heart's content!"

As the two were talking, the door to Su Xinghui's office was knocked on. Su Xinghui said, "Come in."

It was Xia Song who entered. He said with an angry face, "Team Leader, Accountant Xu has been beaten."

Su Xinghui stood up and said, "Where was he beaten?"

Accountant Xu was a partner of Liu Yunqing and also a certified public accountant. He was over forty years old and an old auditor with rich auditing experience and skilled accounting business. He had actually been beaten? This made Su Xinghui somewhat stunned.

Xia Song said, "He was beaten at that Guangda Trading Company. He has already returned now."

Su Xinghui walked toward the door, saying as he walked, "Let's go take a look."

Accountant Xu looked quite miserable now. One lens of his glasses was broken, his face was swollen, and the down jacket he was wearing was soaked with snow water. A few days ago, it had snowed in Yanzhong City; in this state, he must have fallen in the snow.

Liu Yunqing was supporting Accountant Xu, letting him sit on the sofa. A young accountant went to fetch hot water for Accountant Xu to wash his face.

Su Xinghui asked, "Accountant Xu, what exactly happened?"

Accountant Xu washed his face, and a young girl brought some mercurochrome to wipe the wounds on his face. While hissing in pain, Accountant Xu replied to Su Xinghui, "Sigh, don't mention it. I went to Guangda Trading Company today to verify some information. I didn't get the information, and I even got beaten by them."

Accountant Xu recounted today's events. It turned out that he had taken a young accountant with him to Guangda Trading Company today to verify some information.

This was originally a very normal matter. Guangda Trading Company had a lot of business dealings with the Yanfang Group, and now the Yanfang Group still owed Guangda Trading Company tens of millions in payments. Their accounting firm was conducting an audit, so it was perfectly normal to conduct external investigations and verify information with the units the audited entity had dealings with.

Who knew that as soon as they arrived, the attitude of the people at Guangda Trading Company toward them was very bad. They were rude and dismissive. No matter what questions they asked, the other side either said they weren't clear, didn't know, or said it had been a long time and they had forgotten. In short, they just wouldn't cooperate properly.

Accountant Xu had many years of auditing experience and was not surprised by their attitude. He was very composed, giving the other side no chance to vent.

However, the young accountant who went with him had just graduated from school not long ago and was young and vigorous. He was angered by the other side's foul language and retorted a few times. This was great; it gave the other side an excuse to take action. Several of them came up and wanted to beat people.

Accountant Xu naturally couldn't let that young accountant get beaten. To him, this young accountant was his junior and someone he had brought up; he had to protect him. He blocked in front of the young accountant, telling the other side to calm down and not to hit people.

But the other side had been looking for trouble to beat people all along. Now that they had this excuse, how could they calm down? They beat Accountant Xu mercilessly. The young accountant was protected behind Accountant Xu and didn't take many heavy blows.

Fortunately, they didn't go for the kill; this should have been a warning or a provocation. So Accountant Xu didn't suffer any serious injuries. After the beating, they told Accountant Xu never to come to their company again, otherwise, they would beat him every time he came.

Upon hearing this, before Su Xinghui could speak, Yu Ruizhi was already furious: "Damn it, this is too much? Isn't this lawless?"

Su Xinghui felt a bit of self-reproach. He should have expected that given the relationship between Guangda Trading Company and the Yanfang Group, Liu Yunqing and the others might encounter such things when they went to verify information. Why hadn't he let Liu Yunqing and the others take precautions?

However, even if he had reminded Liu Yunqing to take precautions, such things might still have been unavoidable, because Liu Yunqing and the others had to go verify the information. As long as they went to verify information, the other side could always find an excuse to do this.

Su Xinghui knew that this was entirely a warning, provocation, or threat to him. These people had considerable influence in Yanbei Province. If they really wanted to do something to Su Xinghui, Su Xinghui would truly be hard-pressed to defend against it.

Now that this had happened, Su Xinghui was truly alert. It seemed that he would have to be careful when going to Yanzhong City in the future. There was no need to fear at the Yanfang Group; the workers there were very fond of Su Xinghui, and Su Xinghui could be said to have a hundred responses to a single call. Who could come here and do anything to Su Xinghui?

Liu Yunqing asked, "Team Leader Su, what should be done about this?"

Liu Yunqing's face was very solemn. Su Xinghui could see that he was trying his best to suppress his anger. His partner had been beaten here; who wouldn't be angry?

Su Xinghui said, "Call the police!"

Liu Yunqing said, "Is it useful to call the police?"

Accountant Xu said, "When we walked out of the door of Guangda Trading Company, there were two police officers patrolling outside. I told them I had been beaten here, but as soon as they saw I had been beaten inside Guangda Trading Company, they told me to leave quickly if there was nothing else, saying they couldn't manage it."

Su Xinghui said, "No matter what, we still have to call the police first, at least to leave a police report."

Yu Ruizhi said, "Let's go, I'll accompany you to report it."

At this time, the old factory director Yin Deshan, the old chief engineer Gu Zhilin, and the security department head Qin Heshun and others came together. Yin Deshan said, "Team Leader Su, I heard that Accountant Xu and the others were beaten, right?"

Yin Deshan now came to the company every day. Su Xinghui had made him a consultant—an honorary one, of course. Su Xinghui asked him to help give ideas for the company's reform, and Gu Zhilin naturally came to the company every day to help with technical transformation.

When Accountant Xu and the others returned to the company, Qin Heshun saw Accountant Xu's miserable state. He asked a question, and the young Accountant Zhang said they had been beaten outside, then returned to the conference room where they worked. ===== CHAPTER 2453 =====
