"That kid surnamed Yu has been blocking the road?"
"Why didn't you report something so important sooner?"
The person on the other end sounded somewhat aggrieved and helpless.
"Boss, it's not that I didn't want to tell you sooner, it's just that they're watching us every day. As soon as any of us put a cell phone on our phones, they come up and beat us up!"
"Holy crap, boss, I can't talk to you now, they're here!"
Hearing his subordinate's tearful voice, Gao Qiqiang got up and left the office without saying a word.
however.
To his surprise, as soon as he stepped out of the office, he was met with a dozen or so contractors staring at him with furious eyes.
"Everyone, please be patient!"
"Some issues have arisen at the sand pit these past few days, which is my dereliction of duty."
"But please rest assured, I will go and solve the problem right away."
"I guarantee that all the sand will be delivered to your construction site by tomorrow!"
After saying that, Gao Qiqiang left the company with his men without looking back.
along the way.
Gao Qiqiang's phone kept ringing.
Many of the business owners even stated frankly that if Gao Qiqiang didn't have the ability, they wouldn't mind finding a new partner.
These words deeply hurt Gao Qiqiang's pride, reminding him of the days when he sold fish at the market.
At that time, he had no power, no influence, and no money. He was just a lamb to the slaughter, being bossed around by others every day.
Now that he's a big boss, it's impossible for him not to be angry when he's being threatened with such words again.
After all, cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents!
"You ruthless bastard, Fu Guosheng! How could you be so vicious!"
"You wait, today I'll make sure that brat surnamed Yu loses an arm or a leg!"
"Hey!"
"What are you dawdling for? Drive the car faster!"
"If you delay us, I'll make sure your whole family goes begging!"
...
Unlike Gao Qiqiang's anger, Xu Lei was much more at ease.
Because of the various military strategies displayed on the bookshelf, he and Hou Liangping hit it off immediately.
After several discussions, Hou Liangping's admiration for Xu Lei reached an unparalleled level, and he completely became a devoted fan.
"Lei Zi, I'm not trying to be mean, but if you were born in ancient times, the military genius wouldn't be Han Xin, but you!"
Hou Liangping put down the book "Three Chapters on Military Strategy" and said sincerely.
"Lei Zi?"
"If you keep calling me that, I'll call you a monkey!"
Xu Lei laughed heartily.
Just then, the office door was pushed open.
The visitors were Gao Xiaoqin and Lu Yike.
Seeing the two of them holding hands, looking like sisters, Hou Liangping quietly gave Xu Lei a thumbs up.
Successful men are destined to be liked by many women.
It was the first time he had ever met a successful man like Xu Lei, who could make his women get along well and not be jealous at all.
"Xu Lei, Zheng Xipo just called and said he wants to meet with you. He asked when you have time."
When Zheng Xipo was mentioned, Gao Xiaoqin's tone was noticeably unpleasant.
This is understandable, after all, in her eyes, Zheng Xipo had made Xu Lei work hard for a long time because of Dafeng Factory.
What woman in the world doesn't cherish her man?
"Today."
Xu Lei thought for a moment and then said.
"what?"
"But today, many manufacturers' bosses still want to talk to you about cooperation."
"Wouldn't it be a bit inappropriate to simply let Zheng Xipo cut in line like that?"
As Gao Xiaoqin spoke, she took out Xu Lei's schedule for the day.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with letting Zheng Xipo cut in line."
"He is a truly good person who keeps the phrase 'serving the people' in his heart. This is the kind of person who should be my partner!"
Upon hearing these two sentences, Hou Liangping once again looked at Xu Lei with new respect.
He always thought Xu Lei was just a law-abiding businessman, but he never expected that Xu Lei actually had the people in his heart!
This is simply a role model for us all!
[Hou Liangping's favorability +500!]
[Hou Liangping's admiration +500!]
[Congratulations, host, you have received a reward: Your physical functions have doubled!]
Well, another rather unconventional reward~
......
battlefield.
Yu Zui, with an ice pop in his mouth, sat in the van, idly playing on his phone.
Sudden.
Boom!
A large, dark shadow flew in from a distance and slammed heavily onto the windshield.
"Who the hell is so blind?"
"You dare to smash my car?"
Yu Zui, whose temper was flaring up, had just let out a couple of shouts when he saw Gao Qiqiang leading a large group of people walking towards him.
The dark figure that had smashed into the windshield earlier was one of Lao Fu's men.
"Holy crap, this guy's got bad intentions!"
With a bang, Yu Zui slammed the car door shut and dialed Lao Fu's number. "Lao Fu, something terrible has happened! Gao Qiqiang has brought his men to the battlefield, and many of our brothers have been injured by him. I need reinforcements!"
......
Windy Factory.
Upon receiving Gao Xiaoqin's reply, Zheng Xipo immediately convened a factory meeting.
"I'm sure everyone has seen the news lately. Xu Lei has developed the latest type of electric vehicle and is currently seeking investment."
"Since Dafeng Factory is planning to innovate, then this is a golden opportunity!"
"As long as we can reach a cooperation agreement with Xu Lei, all the workers will have a good life!"
After saying that, Zheng Xipo took out his bank card.
He had a total of 200,000 yuan in his account, which was the money he had saved for his son's wedding.
Now, for those unemployed workers who have nothing to do at home, he is willing to take out this money to build a new factory!
"Chairman, I completely agree with your plan, but as you know, my family isn't well-off, and this 30,000 is the most I can afford!"
A union official also took out his bank card.
Chapter 141 Zheng Xipo's Surprise (Please support, thank you)
Shanshui Group Office.
Zheng Xipo placed a blank sheet of paper and a bank card on the table.
The white paper was covered with names, while the bank card was brand new.
"Old Zheng, what do you mean by this?"
"Giving Xu Lei money right in front of me, isn't that a bit disrespectful of me?"
Hou Liangping frowned.
There was a hint of surprise and confusion in those eyes, which were as dark as night.
In his memory, Zheng Xipo was a good person and a law-abiding citizen. Even though he held the high position of chairman of the trade union, he never exploited his employees.
On the contrary, everything he did was to protect the interests of the workers.
This same person, right in front of him, the director of the anti-corruption and bribery bureau, gave Xu Lei money today.
It's somewhat unjustifiable.
"Director Hou, you've misunderstood."
"I'm not here to give Mr. Xu money, but to cooperate with him."
"This blank sheet of paper contains a request signed by all 17 members of our Dafeng Factory. As for this bank card, it contains the bidding funds that we raised together."
Zheng Xipo hurriedly explained, afraid that he had done something wrong.
"I see!"
Hou Liangping nodded and continued, "So, what project are you planning to collaborate on with Xu Lei?"
"New energy vehicles!"
Hou Liangping was shocked when he heard those two words.
Gao Xiaoqin and Lu Yike were also surprised.
Cars are very expensive; if you want to bid on them, the amount of money required is at least in the hundreds of millions.
The workers at Dafeng Factory are ordinary people; even if they sold everything they owned, they couldn't possibly raise over 100 million.
“Mr. Xu, I know our decision is a bit abrupt, but I know you will understand our difficulties.”
"Since the Dafeng Factory closed down, all the workers in the factory area have lost their jobs. Some of them who are from poor families are even having trouble feeding their entire families."
At this point, Zheng Xipo held up the bank card with both hands and respectfully handed it to Xu Lei, saying, "There is more than 80 yuan in the card, which is all the money we can provide."
"Our requirements are not high. We just hope that you can entrust us with the production of some simple parts for new energy vehicles."
"We hope you can give us a chance!"
After saying that, Zheng Xipo suddenly bent over, raising his hands high, creating a stark contrast with his forehead, which was almost touching the ground.
"Old Zheng, it's not that we're unwilling to help you, but... you should understand."
Gao Xiaoqin couldn't help but sigh.
While cars are convenient, they can also be dangerous.
Even a small defective part can lead to a human tragedy.
The best way to avoid defective parts is to buy the most advanced production machines.
Those sophisticated instruments, costing millions or even hundreds of thousands, were clearly unaffordable for workers whose total assets amounted to only a little over 800,000.
Moreover, even if Zheng Xipo was lucky enough to buy qualified production equipment at a low price, mass production would be a new problem.
Due to the previous operating methods of Dafeng Factory, the actual number of workers inside was far less than it appeared on the surface.
Just considering the human and financial resources alone, Xu Lei had a hundred ways to refuse Zheng Xipo's request.
"Take the bank card back."
