"How’s the situation handled?"
As soon as the call connected, Liu Qing asked directly.
"Negotiated," Zhu Jinhua said in a low voice.
"Truly, money can indeed make the devil work," Liu Qing said with a smile:
"Have you co back? I’ve found a few college students. Bring your brothers over to have so fun tonight; I guarantee you’ll be satisfied."
"Things aren’t what you think," Zhu Jinhua said:
"The mining site needs restructuring, and from now on, let’s not collaborate."
"What did you say! No more collaboration!"
Liu Qing’s tone rose, almost hysterical.
"The contract is signed, and now you tell we won’t collaborate—what am I supposed to do? Plus, this will hit your reputation; you know better than how many people are waiting to step over you to rise!"
"I’ll pay the penalty fee; anyhow, let’s not discuss this further—it’s beyond my capabilities now."
"Zhu Jinhua, we’ve worked together for so long. I’ve always respected you as a man of honor. If you’re in trouble, tell . I’ve been around for many years, not in vain—I can help if needed."
"This has nothing to do with your help. Better find another buyer; we can’t collaborate any longer."
"Since you’ve made it so decisively, don’t bla for turning against you!"
"Whatever you wish."
With that, Zhu Jinhua hung up.
He leaned back in the chair, closed his eyes for a mont, then turned off the phone to prevent Liu Qing from further bothering him.
About an hour later, Zhu Jinhua reached the square and set in motion everything Lin Yi had instructed.
He then counted the inventory, preparing to hand it all over to Lin Yi.
Soon after, Yu Siying arrived.
Upon seeing her, Zhu Jinhua was visibly unsettled, promptly bowing and greeting her.
"You’re here."
Yu Siying nodded, "Arrange to get people working now; soon I’ll give you an address to have the items transported."
"Okay, there’s quite a bit of inventory left. I’ll try to get it all shipped within these few days."
Yu Siying nodded and said:
"You’ll be responsible for the mining operations from now on. You can contact with any issues. Start the restructuring work tomorrow; don’t waste ti."
"Understood," Zhu Jinhua said:
"I’ve even prepared the locks. In a few days, after the inventory is gone, we can close the place."
Yu Siying nodded.
"How’s the rescue work in the other mining area going?"
"It’s not too severe. By tomorrow morning, it should be handled, and no lives should be lost."
"Following your old approach, those few would be stuck inside and never co out, right?"
Zhu Jinhua gave a wry smile, tacitly acknowledging Yu Siying’s statent.
"Get to work quickly."
"Okay, okay."
After handling official business, Yu Siying returned to her car, keeping an eye on the site while casually chatting in a group.
Past one in the morning, the night was calm and quiet.
The inventory was loaded onto trucks, ready to be transported to Yu Siying’s factory.
A few trucks slowly departed, and Yu Siying stretched, revealing her slender waist, and prepared to head ho for rest.
But at that mont, suddenly she noticed headlights illuminating from behind, brightening the empty space ahead.
Instinctively, Yu Siying turned abruptly, to see a dozen or so cars parked there.
Each person held a knife, muscular and fierce, looking ready to kill.
Seeing this, Zhu Jinhua, who was arranging the trucks to leave, was also taken aback.
Because he saw the person leading was Liu Qing!
"What are you trying to do?"
"Old Zhu, I’m not here to argue with you. I ca here overnight to continue our collaboration; that’s all," Liu Qing said:
"I also know there must be a reason you suddenly stopped the collaboration. I brought people to help you solve the problem."
"There’s no reason; we just won’t collaborate. No need to summon people to intimidate ," Zhu Jinhua said:
"I’ve lived over forty years; this sort of situation doesn’t scare ."
Liu Qing glanced at the trucks being halted and softly said:
"Since you say there’s no collaboration anymore, what’s with these trucks? Where are you transporting the goods?"
"That’s my business and shouldn’t concern you."
"Heh heh..."
Liu Qing let out a cold laugh, squinting and saying:
"Even if you don’t say, I understand; you must be collaborating secretly, trying to push out."
"Whatever you think doesn’t matter," Zhu Jinhua said:
"I’ve been on the street for so many years, you know my capability; playing tricks with , you are way too green."
"True, I’m just a businessman; playing tricks with you, I’m indeed no match," Liu Qing said:
"But take a closer look, see who I’ve brought."
As he spoke, people around him instinctively stepped aside, and from a domineering car behind, in the passenger seat sat a bald middle-aged man.
Upon seeing that man, Zhu Jinhua’s face changed drastically.
He also knew the man sitting in the car.
The na is Liu Wen; his power isn’t much weaker than Zhu Jinhua’s.
For many years, he’s eyed Zhu Jinhua’s territory but was always overshadowed.
Yet unexpectedly, Liu Qing brought him today.
The car door opened, and Liu Wen stepped down.
"Old Zhu, think about it. It’s been a long ti since we’ve t; surprised to see , aren’t you?"
Cold sweat trickled down Zhu Jinhua’s forehead.
He’s not afraid of Liu Qing, but Liu Wen is ruthless; with so many people today, mishandling could indeed lead to trouble.
Bang!
At this mont, with the sound of a closing car door, Yu Siying stepped from the vehicle, facing the crowd.
Both Liu Qing and Liu Wen turned their attention to her, eyes gleaming.
"Impressive, Old Zhu, knowing such a fine woman,"
Liu Qing said with a cold smile, "But whether you get to play tonight depends on fate."
"Sis, these guys are bloodthirsty. Be careful,"
Zhu Jinhua clearly knew the situation was beyond his handling, leaving it to Yu Siying.
"Who are you calling sis?"
"My mistake, my mistake," Zhu Jinhua said repeatedly:
"If you can’t manage it, the two of us should find a way to escape; maybe there’s still a chance."
"Go wait over there."
With one sentence, Yu Siying faced Liu Qing and Liu Wen, "Don’t waste my ti, get lost now."
"Wow, she’s tough," Liu Qing laughed heartily:
"Boss Liu, tonight’s a lucky catch; let’s take this woman too."
"I was thinking the sa," Liu Wen said smilingly, waving to his n:
"Take action."
