Early the next morning, Jiang Wanqing and Hong Xing tied up a person and took them to the entrance of Xiuli Factory.
The workers had just started their shift when they saw two men escorting a female worker at the factory gate, and they all came over to watch the spectacle.
As for the female workers who had switched jobs from Jiang Wanqing's factory, they only dared to watch from afar, fearing that they would be implicated.
"Isn't the person Comrade Jiang and Comrade Hong tied up a long-time employee of the factory? How come..."
"I guess he was trying to switch jobs like us, but he got caught, so they're making an example of him."
"Oh no, Comrade Jiang is a very good person, he wouldn't do such a thing."
"Why not? Her factory is about to go bankrupt, she'd go crazy. Don't be silly, she pays the money, we do the work, we're even, why should we remember her kindness? If that's the case, Xiuli Factory pays us even more, wouldn't that mean they're even more grateful?"
Some ingrates, in an attempt to cover up their low professional ethics, began to distort the truth and defend themselves. However, they only dared to talk about it from a distance and did not dare to actually dance in front of Jiang Wanqing.
A large crowd gathered, pointing and whispering. Soon after, Guo Xueyun arrived for work.
She didn't know what had happened, and shouted something while pushing her bicycle.
"What are you all doing gathered here! Aren't you going to work?! Get inside!"
She shoved a female worker who was standing out from the crowd, causing her to stumble and create a gap in the crowd, allowing Guo Xueyun to see the scene inside clearly.
Her eyes widened: "Jiang Wanqing, what are you doing!"
"Bring Jiang Xiu out!"
"Wh...what Jiang Xiu? I don't know what you're talking about. I've never even met her."
Guo Xueyun stubbornly spouted nonsense. They were currently having a good time fighting with Jiang Wanqing, which meant that Jiang Xiu's methods were effective. She wouldn't be foolish enough to expose the mastermind behind it all.
"Alright, let's talk about you stealing my formula first. It happened twice. You weren't caught last time, but I caught you red-handed this time. I'll make your factory manager come out and give us an explanation!"
So this is what it feels like to be a shrew! Jiang Wanqing felt much better afterward. She had originally planned to outsmart her, but considering that she now held both money and power, she realized that outsmarting her wouldn't solve most problems. For example, Chen Zhong's matter had already encountered two unexpected complications.
Therefore, she made a concerted effort to bring things into the open, having Jiang Xiu step forward to disrupt their conspiracy to lay out their plans in secret.
"Could Comrade Jiang's mention of stealing the formula refer to the time when Xiuli Factory released a new product first?"
"It seems so. Didn't you see that Director Guo isn't saying anything?"
"Tsk tsk, this is a bit shady. They got caught red-handed this time."
"But then again, doing business is all about each person using their own unique skills."
There are various versions of the story, and some people, intimidated by Guo Xueyun's power, dared not continue to crowd at the door to watch the spectacle.
"What are you looking at! Get inside, all of you! Otherwise, you'll all be fired! Get out!" she roared.
Some of the more stubborn ones continued to watch the show, but kept their distance.
"What are you yelling about! You're in the wrong now, aren't you? You're too scared to let everyone see, aren't you? You know perfectly well how your crappy factory got started!"
Hong Xing was also angry. Since he was in the right, he had to vent his anger first, and Jiang Wanqing did not stop him.
"You...you have no right to accuse us of stealing the formula! Instead, you've been arbitrarily beating our workers! I'm calling the police to have you arrested!"
Perhaps because she had spent so much time with Jiang Xiu, Guo Xueyun's brain had become increasingly dull. After she finished speaking, Jiang Xiu clapped his hands.
"No need for you to call the police, we have already done so, just wait for the officers to arrive."
"What? You called the police..."
As they were talking, the sound of sirens grew closer, and two policemen in green uniforms got out of the car.
"What's going on here? Who called the police?"
Jiang Wanqing raised her hand: "We called the police. The owner of this Xiuli factory instructed workers to steal our factory's formula and engage in unfair competition through illegal means. Can't I call the police?"
Upon hearing this, the two policemen exchanged glances. This matter really couldn't be ignored; it had already escalated to a major point and couldn't be allowed to continue.
Do you have any evidence?
"Look, the thief has been caught, and her words are the evidence."
Jiang Wanqing gave a strong push, and the bound female worker was thrown towards the police.
She glanced back at Jiang Wanqing, startled by the intimidating look in her eyes. She thought of the beating she'd received last night, and the connection to Jiang Wanqing's husband…
She told the whole story, afraid that if she concealed anything, she wouldn't even have the chance to be leniently punished.
"It was...it was the owner of Xiuli Factory who instructed me to steal Comrade Jiang's formula, saying he would give me five thousand yuan..."
Guo Xueyun gritted her teeth in anger, still trying to argue, when Jiang Wanqing handed the witness to the police and followed them.
"Officer, could you please contact the owner of Xiuli Factory? It seems we need to confront him about this."
"Yes, we definitely need to investigate this thoroughly. Let's get in the car and go to the police station to resolve this."
Jiang Wanqing gave Hong Xing a wink, and he didn't follow, instead going back to the factory.
Police summons and a deluge of newspaper articles arrived at the Ye family's home.
The Ye family was too ashamed to show up, so Jiang Xiu had no choice but to go with the police.
After Jiang Xiu was taken away, Gu Yu, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ye family, summoned her subordinates.
"Go contact the person who reported Jiang Xiu; I want to meet with her."
"clear."
She felt very uncomfortable. She thought her father-in-law was about to die, but who knew that the old man would marry a woman to bring him good luck before he died, and that marriage ended up killing him.
They now have an outsider fighting over their property.
Gu Yu was originally on the same side as her husband, but a few days ago, she discovered that her new mother-in-law and her husband were having an affair!
If her husband of over twenty years is unreliable, then she shouldn't blame her for finding ways to fight for the inheritance!
Jiang Xiu was taken to the police station to meet Jiang Wanqing.
She snorted triumphantly, "You went to great lengths to lure me out, and now that I'm out, you've won. But this is the only time, Jiang Wanqing. Right now, you're no match for me!"
What woman could be more shameless than her? Her face is thicker than a city wall.
Jiang Wanqing raised an eyebrow: "Stop talking nonsense, let's deal with the matter of you ordering someone to steal the formula first!"
"Hmph, what's the big deal? Just watch."
Jiang Xiu was not handcuffed and had complete freedom of movement. The guards around her seemed to be nonexistent, allowing her to walk towards the leader's office.
About ten minutes later, a leader came out with her, his face showing a hint of obsequiousness.
"Mrs. Ye, it's you! This is like a flood washing away the Dragon King's temple! Don't worry, I'll take care of this..."
The man patted his chest and made a promise. Before long, he stood in front of Jiang Wanqing and slapped the table without any politeness.
"Comrade, you can leave now."
"Oh? Then how do we deal with the thief?"
“We’ll take the thief into custody; you don’t need to worry about him.”
"And what about her?" Jiang Wanqing pointed at Jiang Xiu: "Aren't you going to take care of her?"
