Chapter 372: Reversal of Public Opinion
Liu Weimin looked at the replica seal in his hand, his face turned pale and blue, and he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
He clearly had someone throw it away a few days ago, so how come it’s still here?
At this moment, the crowd outside was in an uproar and started discussing the matter at once.
"This is really unkind of Evergreen Employment Agency! How can you privately carve someone else's seal and use it to do harm?"
"That's right! Could it be that they were behind the news that was published in the newspaper? This is really too much!"
....
For a time, public opinion reversed in two ways.
Listening to the crowd's complaints and discussions, Liu Weimin looked extremely unhappy.
He picked up the megaphone and began to defend himself.
This time, no one listened to his excuses, and almost everyone supported Ye Ying.
"Come on, it's come to this, don't explain too much! Everyone knows what's going on!"
"Hey! After all, your Evergreen Employment Agency has been open for such a long time, why are you so petty? Stealing bamboo shoots here and there?" sighed a master.
Ye Ying recognized this master. He was the one that Sun Xi had asked to help him guard the warehouse.
More and more people gathered around.
Now everyone knows that it was Liu Weimin who was causing trouble, causing damage to Ye Ying's reputation.
When the police came, Liu Weimin still looked unwilling: "Tell me, how did you know?"
Ye Ying looked at a bruised man in the crowd and said to Liu Weimin with a smile, "Want to know? I won't tell you! If you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself!"
Then, Liu Weimin and the people from Changqing Employment Agency were taken away by the police station.
After everyone left, Ye Ying walked towards Sun Xi in the crowd.
"Thank you for this."
Sun Xi pursed her lips and said apologetically: "No, this is my responsibility."
"Before... I got you involved and caused you to get hurt like that. I've always felt bad about it."
"It's all in the past, let's not talk about it." Ye Ying looked at the bruised-faced man next to Sun Xi, "You see, if you had spoken out earlier, you wouldn't have to suffer this at all."
The man's name was Feng Gang, and Liu Weimin spent a lot of money to have him replicate the pirated seal.
As soon as the news came out in the newspaper, Sun Xi noticed something was wrong.
She knew Ye Ying and knew she would not do such a thing.
So I kept paying attention.
Until yesterday, when she met Ye Ying while investigating the matter.
Sun Xi had been staring at Feng Gang for several days, and immediately she and Ye Ying took him to an alley when he was off work.
But Feng Gang was very tight-lipped and refused to say a word after being asked for a long time.
In order to make him relax, Ye Ying had to use some force, and finally Feng Gang admitted that he had carved the seal.
In fact, she was also unsure when she was searching for the seal just now. She thought Liu Weimin would not be stupid enough to leave the evidence here.
But before that, Sun Xi called her and said that he would bring Feng Gang over to testify, and it didn't matter if the seal could not be found.
Who would have known that Liu Weimin actually had the guts to hide the seal in the employment agency. He was not afraid at all!
"The matter should be clarified soon, but you may not get back the money you paid," Sun Xi said suddenly.
There is no guarantee that all the money will be recovered.
Ye Ying curled her lips and said, "I know I probably won't be coming back, so I'll just treat this money as advertising expenses!"
"Now everyone knows that 'Forward' is a very conscientious employment agency, right? Hahaha!"
As long as the reputation is there, it shouldn't be difficult to make money back.
Sun Xi nodded and said seriously, "Okay, then... Comrade Ye Ying, I will take the person back to the police station first. If you need any help in the future, please come to me and Yu Gang."
After Sun Xi took Feng Gang away, Ye Ying hurried back to the employment agency and told Li Meiyang and Zheng Tao about the incident.
They both breathed a sigh of relief knowing that they had not caused the problem.
Because of this incident, Ye Ying improved the process so that anyone who gets a job through an employment agency would have their record kept and could be verified.
A few days passed, and the clarification Sun Xi promised did not come.
But Ye Ying no longer cared.
Because the workers all know the specific situation, and with the temptation of not charging a head fee, the employment agency has no worries about people coming to look for jobs.
The uncle who used to sell sweet potatoes at the stall in front of the Changqing Employment Agency also quietly moved his stall here.
Seeing this scene, Ye Ying felt very satisfied.
But when he saw the mobile phone in his hand, he sighed helplessly.
More than a week has passed, and Ji Lianqi still hasn't called back.
A few days passed like this, and Ye Ying suddenly received a call from Hu Yong.
The two met at a hotel.
Hu Yong poured a cup of tea and handed it to Ye Ying.
"Come, have a cup of tea to warm yourself up first."
"Thank you."
"I've considered your suggestion last time. Maybe we can give it a try."
"Really?" Ye Ying's eyes lit up, and she tightened her grip on the teacup. "So, I have successfully attracted sponsors!"
Hu Yong shook his head: "No, I should say partners."
"Yes, you are right." Ye Ying nodded and enthusiastically told Hu Yong about her plan.
The last time Hu Yong found her, he actually wanted to recruit her to the food factory as a sales representative. Their food factory had developed a new food and needed to open up the market quickly.
Since Hu Yong had worked with her before, he was quite confident in her and thought about recruiting her.
During the conversation that day, Hu Yong not only heard about Ye Ying's experience in trading corn in the Shenzhen Stock Exchange, but also learned that she wanted to start a factory to produce sanitary napkins, but was troubled by insufficient funds.
She even extended an olive branch to him and asked him if he was interested in investment cooperation.
Finally, Hu Yong tactfully said that he would go back and think about it first.
Ye Ying thought there was no hope, but unexpectedly Hu Yong contacted her again a month later.
The two also discussed the details of setting up the factory and the division of labor.
After the chat, it was already around six or seven o'clock. Hu Yong was worried about Ye Ying walking alone at night, so he drove her to the gate of the compound.
As soon as she got off the car, Ye Ying ran into Liu Juan, Zhao Ting, Wu Yu'e and others who were walking in a hurry.
Seeing her get out of a black car, and the person inside seemed to be a man, Liu Juan and others' expressions changed slightly.
Ye Ying walked towards them and asked: "What are you going to do in such a hurry?"
Liu Juan's expression suddenly turned anxious: "I don't know where my Xiaotian has gone again! I was worried, so I asked them to come out and help look for him!"
"Again? Does your good son always behave like this?"
"Several times!" Liu Juan was so angry that she put her hands on her hips. "This damn boy, if I catch him today, I will beat him to death!"
As they were cursing, a small figure suddenly walked towards the courtyard stealthily, seemingly without noticing them.
"Xiaotian! Get over here!" Liu Juan recognized Xiaotian at a glance and roared.
Xiaotian shuddered with fear, "Mom..."
"Get over here!" Liu Juan grabbed Xiaotian and spanked him twice. When she was about to raise her hand to spank him for the third time, some money fell out of his trouser pocket.
Not only Ye Ying, but also Liu Juan was stunned.
She finally sensed something was wrong.
"Xiaotian, tell me honestly, where did you get all this money?"
