"Deputy Director Zhang seems to be here looking for someone? Do you want me to help you?" Huo Chen asked.
Deputy Director Zhang shook his head and walked straight into the room. When he saw that there was no space to hide, he began to panic.
Huo Chen saw his worry and provoked him, "Deputy Director Zhang, are you looking for the person who helped you to win the job?"
"Huo Chen, what nonsense are you talking about? I'm only here to catch up with an old friend." Deputy Director Zhang tried to keep calm, but the sweat on his forehead could not hide his guilty conscience.
Huo Chen actually knew about that matter. Who else knew about this matter? Where did the couple go? Could they have been instigated by Director Gu?
Deputy Director Zhang was so anxious that he was sweating profusely.
Huo Chen stood there and continued, "Deputy Director Zhang, let's work together. I will help you get rid of that couple, and you release my father-in-law.
It's not impossible to cooperate on the subsequent food factory matters. My wife is now married to me, and our child is about to be born. I must put my family first, and I, as a man, will have to work hard outside to build my future career.
So I can help you with the food factory matter, now it depends on what Deputy Director Zhang thinks."
"Those two guys are indeed with you. Well, Huo Chen, I really underestimated you. Zhang Jiujiang is right, you are as cunning as the Zhou family members." Deputy Director Zhang had a smile on his face, but he was still a little defensive in his heart.
"Zhang Jiujiang." Huo Chen looked angry: "You have a good relationship with him?"
Deputy Director Zhang looked puzzled when he saw this: “It’s not that good, we just dealt with each other before.
What, do you have a grudge against him?"
Seeing this, Huo Chen revealed his vulnerable self-deprecating side: "Deputy Director Zhang probably doesn't know much about my background. My stepmother is Zhang Jiujiang's sister. My mother had a difficult birth when she was pregnant with me.
It just so happened that the midwife was found by Zhang Jiujiang's sister. If there was no trick involved, it would be impossible.
So Zhang Jiujiang is my enemy. If you are friends with Zhang Jiujiang, then our cooperation ends here."
Huo Chen said this and was about to leave angrily.
Deputy Director Zhang saw that his expression didn't seem fake, so he let down his guard. It seemed that the couple was really not there, otherwise this guy would not dare to leave so blatantly.
Huo Chen left the yard, and Deputy Director Zhang also ran out. Seeing Huo Chen's sincere attitude, he said, "Huo Chen, what you said is not true. Zhang Jiujiang and I don't have a deep friendship. We just met by chance.
I didn't know that he and his sister would do such a thing, but don't worry, as long as we cooperate, if you need my help, I will do my best to help you.
As for that couple, I’m counting on you.”
Huo Chen was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "Do you want to kill that couple?"
Deputy Director Zhang's eyes were fierce: "If you want to achieve great things, you must be ruthless. Only those who never speak will not reveal secrets.
I believe you know what to do, and I will wait for your good news."
After saying this, Deputy Director Zhang turned around and left.
There was a secret compartment in the room, and the couple who were being pressed down by Wu Qingsong turned pale.
Deputy Director Zhang's car disappeared at the entrance of the village, and Huo Chen returned to the house. Looking at the frightened faces of the couple, he spoke: "Now you believe Deputy Director Zhang's execution of you, right?
If you don't report him, and allow him to continue to harm society as a scourge, then you and your spouse and children will not be able to escape the consequences.
But if you report Deputy Director Zhang and testify about what happened back then, you may be given a lighter sentence. You all know what kind of person Director Gu is.
"Let's testify on behalf of Director Gu." The couple looked at each other and said.
Seeing this, Huo Chen winked at Wu Qingsong and said, "You take them out by a detour, and I'll go out by the main road."
Wu Qingsong nodded and took the couple away along a small path.
Huo Chen drove alone on the road, and as expected, he met Deputy Director Zhang on the road. Deputy Director Zhang saw Huo Chen sitting in the back car with a smile, and when he saw that he was the only one there, he left with peace of mind.
After Deputy Director Zhang left, he went straight to the food factory.
The food factory is in chaos now. The orders that were originally unable to be completed are now all stuck.
Director Sun and Director Ma also had an argument: "If it were up to me, we should just terminate the cooperation with the people in Xujia Village. We can also expand the factory by ourselves. Why do we have to cooperate with their small factory in Xujia Village?
Vegetables can be poisonous, so who knows if eating feces is poisonous? Director Sun, even if you have a good relationship with Minister Xu, you can't be so partial to him.
If you don't make a decision quickly, how will our factory be able to do business in the future?"
Director Sun was so angry that his face turned red. Director Ma directly put a big accusation on him. No matter what the outcome was, it showed that he deliberately favored Minister Xu and gave the factory's business to the people of Xujia Village.
Moreover, once the factory stops cooperating with the factory in Xujiacun, it will further prove that the food in Xujiacun has safety issues.
By then, Xiao Xu would have been completely offended.
Director Sun is now unable to make a decision. He knows very well how much effort Xiao Xu has made for the development of the factory.
If the cooperation is really terminated, Xiao Xu will be accused of something terrible in the future.
All the vegetable greenhouses in Xujia Village were destroyed.
"Director Sun, what are you still hesitating about? Could it be that Minister Xu alone is more important than the interests of the entire factory?" Director Ma asked aggressively.
Deputy Director Yang on the side could not stand it any longer, and he looked at Director Ma and said directly: “Director Ma, the matter of the vegetable greenhouse in Xujia Village has not been thoroughly investigated.
It would be too hasty to directly convict the people of Xujia Village. Besides, the problem of poisonous vegetable greenhouses in Xujia Village is not just Xujia Village itself. All the vegetable greenhouses are poisonous.
Maybe someone was just negligent, and it has affected the food safety in the factory.
Minister Xu has made so many contributions to the factory. Now that something has happened in the village, we are in a hurry to distance ourselves from the matter. This is really too embarrassing."
Director Ma had long disliked Deputy Director Yang, and now he was furious when he heard this: "Am I in a hurry to distance myself from him? Didn't you see that after this happened, many partners wanted to terminate their cooperation with us?
If we don't deal with this matter now, what will happen to the profitability of our factory? Do we have to give all the orders to other factories?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the guys who were still hesitating suddenly lost their composure.
Minister Xu is important, but the orders in the factory are more important. If there are no orders, what will happen to the employees in the factory?
Everyone began to hesitate.
"Director Sun, either you or he should listen to Director Ma and cut off ties with Minister Xu," one of the staff members said.
