Chapter 3019: Chapter 3019: The Fish Has Taken the Bait
“Buyer?”
“You know, the ore produced here has a high titanium content, more suitable for making special equipnt, but the ore hasn’t been sold to any official personnel.”
After a pause, Lin Yi continued:
“Typically, companies won’t use such things in production. Even if they need High Titanium Alloy, it can be artificially added, and the cost will be greatly reduced. There’s no need to buy Zhu Jinlong’s iron ore.”
Upon hearing Lin Yi’s words, Yu Siying suddenly realized.
“I rember Zhu Jinlong ntioned that his products are always in demand and not sold publicly, suggesting there’s no shortage of buyers. Whoever is connecting with him is indeed suspicious.”
“Exactly, that’s what intrigued ,” Lin Yi said:
“We’re here to buy ore because we have special needs and money isn’t an issue, so the secret buyer might have the sa requirents as us.”
“This is indeed a lead worth investigating,” Yu Siying said:
“I’ll find ti to et Zhu Jinlong and pry open his lips; I should be able to gather a lot.”
Lin Yi nodded, deciding to leave the task to Yu Siying.
“Boss, those people in the car next to us seem to be watching us,”
Yu Siying said quietly while eating.
“I noticed just now,” Lin Yi replied nonchalantly:
“It’s likely soone from Zhu Jinlong’s side, don’t mind them. Wait for them to act, and we’ll respond accordingly.”
“Understood.”
After dinner, the two returned to the hotel, planning to rest for the night and continue investigating tomorrow.
Ring ring ring—
Just as they returned to the hotel, Lin Yi’s phone rang with an unfamiliar number.
“Hello…”
“I’m Zhu Jinhua, Zhu Jinlong is my big brother.”
Upon hearing this, Lin Yi stopped and said:
“What do you want with ?”
“I want to et and talk,” Zhu Jinhua said:
“You should be in room 407 at the Fuli Hotel, right?”
“Correct.”
“Wait for .”
“The fish has bitten the hook; now we just wait for them to enter the net,” Lin Yi said with a smile after hanging up.
“A call from the Zhu family?”
Lin Yi nodded, “It’s his brother Zhu Jinhua. They’ve even found out where we’re staying; he must be capable.”
“In this industry, none are clean, it’s understandable.”
“Let’s head back, they should arrive shortly.”
The two took the elevator back to Lin Yi’s room together.
With nothing else to do, they called Zhang Chaoyue, Xiao Bing, and Luo Qi to team up for so gaming.
About ten minutes later, the ga hadn’t finished when a strange electric sound ca from the door.
Both instinctively looked toward the entrance.
Soon, the door opened, revealing Zhu Jinhua leading two n inside.
“Not even knocking, barging in so boldly, you seem to think too highly of yourself.”
Once inside, Zhu Jinhua glanced at Yu Siying then casually sat on the sofa as if he were at ho.
“I’ve gotten used to this over the years,” Zhu Jinhua shrugged, saying:
“Besides, this doesn’t matter, it won’t affect our conversation.”
Lin Yi gave him a look and said calmly:
“Go ahead, what do you want to talk about.”
Zhu Jinhua fumbled in his pocket and then pushed a bank card forward.
“Here’s 500,000. Consider it hush money, stop investigating the mines and leave here quickly.”
“Investigate? Where is this coming from? I only hope you make necessary corrections,” Lin Yi said:
“If I really intended to investigate, both of your family’s mines would be shut down, and you wouldn’t have the chance to sit here talking to .”
Zhu Jinhua was silent for a few seconds, scrutinizing the two, then pulled another bank card from his pocket and placed it on the coffee table.
“Two cards, totaling a million, to buy your silence and for you to leave imdiately.”
Lin Yi chuckled, shaking his finger, “I’ve already told you, it’s not about the money, it’s the principle.”
“You’re discussing principles with ?!”
Zhu Jinhua laughed derisively, “Things like this happen every minute, every second, across the country, and you’re talking principles now? Isn’t it laughable?”
“You’re right about that, but the refusal to act on minor evils is unacceptable. Since I’ve stumbled upon it, I naturally have to intervene.”
Lin Yi said:
“And now, I’ve given you a chance to make adjustnts, you’d better cherish it and not be ungrateful.”
Zhu Jinhua squinted, his gaze turning sinister.
“So there’s no deal then?”
“Go back and make changes, then we can continue the discussion,” Lin Yi said:
“As for your million yuan, take it back.”
“Offering you a chance and not cherishing it, no need for to stay calm anymore,” Zhu Jinhua said:
“Neither of you will be able to leave.”
As he spoke, his two subordinates pulled out guns from their coats, aiming at Lin Yi and Yu Siying’s heads.
“Rejecting kindness and opting for force, don’t bla for being rude, follow .”
Zhu Jinhua expected them to comply obediently upon seeing the guns or even kneel and beg.
But to his surprise, the two remained calmly seated without any movent.
This baffled Zhu Jinhua, leaving him sowhat bewildered and even confused.
He couldn’t understand how anyone could remain calm under such circumstances.
“You both seem composed? Do you think there aren’t any bullets? Or do you think I won’t fire?”
“The decision is yours, it doesn’t matter whether you fire,” Lin Yi said:
“But understand this, once you fire, things change, it’s impossible for to speak kindly with you.”
“After firing, you beco disabled, with what will you threaten ?”
“It’s useless to talk, if you dare, try shooting.”
Zhu Jinlong’s face turned grim, sowhat caught in a dilemma.
He knew this woman before him was formidable, even with a dozen n below, they might not be her match.
But firing indeed required courage.
“I’ll give you three seconds, or face the consequences.”
“Do as you please, I don’t care either way.”
“Three!”
Zhu Jinhua began the countdown through gritted teeth.
“Two!”
He kept staring into Lin Yi’s eyes, yet saw no movent or fearful expression.
“One!”
“If you won’t appreciate the favor, don’t bla for rudeness.”
“Fire!”
On Zhu Jinhua’s command, his n imdiately fired.
But they didn’t aim for lethal spots, instead targeting Lin Yi’s leg!
However, such threats to Lin Yi felt like child’s play as he dodged with a side roll.
While Zhu Jinhua stood dumbfounded, almost losing his jaw.
