“Don’t you just want money? I can give it to you.”
Lin Yi looked at Ji Qingyan. “Go inform the company’s finance department to prepare 300 million in cash. They can compensate as much as these people want.”
“Compensate?”
Ji Qingyan looked puzzled, not understanding what Lin Yi was trying to do.
But she didn’t say anything.
“I’ll call the company’s finance department.”
Seeing that Lin Yi was ready to compromise, the man in black said,
“You know what’s good for you. Otherwise, you can forget about this project.”
“In order for the project to continue, I’ll compensate you guys, but please be mentally prepared,” Lin Yi said calmly.
“What the h.e.l.l? What do we need to prepare for?”
“Let me be honest with you, this project is a key initiative spearheaded by the Zhonghai Munic.i.p.al Committee and has certain official backing. Therefore, your actions have already const.i.tuted a crime of obstructing economic development. As for how it will be handled later, I’m not entirely sure. You’d best hope for good luck.”
“W-what did you say? It has official backing?”
“What else? If that wasn’t the case, would so many people come at once?”
The man in black was scared silly. He had not heard before that this project had official backing!
If those people investigated, wouldn’t he be dead meat?!
In reality, this project had no official backing at all. It was all made up by Lin Yi.
Having said that, Lin Yi could also freely decide if the project had official backing or not.
“Chief Chen, that’s the situation. Please investigate it.”
“Leave it to me.” Chen Bingqiang said.
“I’ve seen plenty of people like this before. I know how to handle them.”
The twenty or so people who had come to cause trouble had already peed their pants.
If they were really investigated, they would be finished!
They would probably have to spend the rest of their lives in prison!
“No, no, no. Let’s talk things out.”
The man in black stepped forward and grabbed Lin Yi’s arm. His att.i.tude was no longer as arrogant as before.
“We know we were wrong. Somebody just paid us to help them. We didn’t know that this matter would blow up so much.”
It would be a lie to say that he was not afraid!
If this matter blew up, even if the emperor himself came, he would not be able to save them!
Furthermore, the outcome would be even worse!!
There was no need to hesitate!
He might as well apologize and beg for mercy now. Perhaps then, the punishment would be lenient.
“You can’t tell me all this since I don’t have the right to deal with you.” Lin Yi shrugged.
“A few you over there, come and take them away!” Chen Bingqiang said.
More than 20 police officers jumped out from behind Chen Bingqiang and cuffed the 20 or so troublemakers. Their movements were clean and nimble.
Regardless of whether they were men, women, old, or young, the people who were arrested all had sad expressions on their faces. Even so, it was too late for regrets.
I*wo days ago, someone came over and gave each of them 5,000 yuan. These people were greedy and agreed readily.
Now, for 5,000 yuan, they were going to prison!
“All!”
Seeing that these police officers were really going to take her away, an old lady collapsed to the ground. Her eyes were white and her entire body was twitching.
“No, no, 1 can’t do it anymore. I’m getting a heart attack. Hurry up and send me to the hospital…”
“Aiyaya…”
“I was scared by these people. I’m having a heart attack too. Hurry up and send me to the hospital.”
Eventually…
The seven or eight old men all lay on the ground, unable to get up no matter how hard they tried.
Because of that, the surrounding bystanders began to point their fingers at Chen Bingqiang. It was clear that they were claiming that Chen Bingqiang was bullying them.
Chen Bingqiang’s face was cold. Naturally, he was not afraid of these rumors.
“These people are all faking it. Ignore them. Bring them all to the van.”
“You’d better not. Your ident.i.ty is sensitive. Let me do this.”
“President Lin, you…”
Lin Yi smiled and said to Guo Songnan.
“If it’s a problem, then let’s just deal with it directly.”
“All? Deal, deal with?”
“Ever seen a car accident scene? Get a car to run over it. According to Zhonghai’s rate, it’ll be roughly 500,000 yuan per life.”
What the f*ck!
The old men and women who were paralyzed on the ground were all dumbfounded!
This person was too ruthless. He actually wanted to hit them with his car?
“No, no, no. We’ve recovered from our heart attack. We’ll just follow the police.”
In the next few minutes, all the troublemakers were taken away.
Guo Songnan was shocked and secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
President Lin was more than ruthless. He was evil to the core.
This approach was much more sophisticated than those with fierce faces who were quick to resort to violence and threats.
This was the demeanor of a superior.
After handling the situation at the construction site, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan went back.
Guo Songnan stayed behind to deal with the subsequent matters.
“It’s a good thing I met you today. Otherwise, it would have been really difficult to deal with these people.”
On the way back, Ji Qingyan heaved a sigh of relief.
With this matter resolved, the project could start as scheduled.
“To deal with these people, you have to use force. The better your temper, the more arrogant they will be.”
“I don’t think I’ll be able to learn something like that.” Ji Qingyan smiled.
“But with you around, 1 don’t have to worry about such trivial matters, right, Mr. Lin?”
“That depends on your performance.”
“That’s not a problem. My culinary skills have improved recently. I’ll cook something delicious for you when we get back.”
“Will there be any humans which are particularly tasty?”
Ji Qingyan rolled her eyes and replied shamelessly, “Nothing of the sort.”
After leaving the construction site, Lin Yi and Ji Qingyan found a Cantonese restaurant to take car of their time.
During this time, they chatted about Song Jiayu, then went out to watch a movie before returning home at around 10 p.m.
Lin Yi received a call from Chen Bingqiang as soon as he got home.
“President Lin, we’ve them investigated thoroughly. These people are just ordinary people, but their reputations aren’t very good. They’re what we normally call ’deadbeats’.”
“They said that two days ago, a person named Ma San gave them five thousand yuan each before coming to cause trouble.”
Lin Yi thought for a moment. “Can you find the person called Ma San?”
“The other party is very cautious. They only gave them money and didn’t leave any contact information. With the information on hand, I’m afraid it will be very difficult to find that person called Ma San.”
“Alright, 1 understand. Thank you, Chief Chen.”
“There’s no need to be so polite. We’re all on the same side.”
After exchanging a few pleasantries, Lin Yi hung up.
Seeing Lin Yi’s serious expression, Ji Qingyan brought some cut fruits over.
“Did something happen? Why do you look so pale?”
“What’s the name of the company that was competing with you for the land?”
“Huanghai Group. It’s a very famous company. The president is Li Dongxin, who was once the wealthiest man in Huaxia. Now that the inland development is booming, they’re looking to get a piece of the action,” Ji Qingyan said.
“However, this project is managed by his son, Li Huaxing, who is also the general manager of Huanghai Group.”
Lin Yi smiled, “If he’s thinking of getting a share of the inland market, he might be overestimating himself..”
