Upon hearing the offer of a three-fold refund for counterfeit goods, Liu Qingyao's heart skipped a beat.
This is no child's play. Returning over a billion and then paying another five billion in compensation—where is she going to raise the money?
Today, I faced off against Fang Xueqing and won the Blue Star Building project, causing the Hong Group to lose 3 billion.
Hong Guoliang was already very unhappy, so it was impossible to ask him for money again.
This is a really big problem.
Jiang Lin, that bitch, how could she make such a big mistake while being an inside agent at the Pinjian Hall?
She gritted her teeth and said, "Wait, let me figure out what's going on first!"
As he spoke, he took out his phone and dialed Jiang Lin's number!
"Beep beep beep..."
Jiang Lin's phone was switched off.
"That bitch, turning off her phone at a time like this is asking for death!"
She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet several times.
"President Liu, losing your temper won't help!"
“Answer me, I’ll spend over a billion dollars to buy a few dozen tons of your waste rock.”
"Are you going to refund one month's salary plus three months' compensation as per the contract, or is there another method?"
"Well……"
Liu Qingyao bit her lip, unsure how to respond.
Suddenly, she thought of Gudechong.
Didn't he say that all those rough stones would yield treasures?
Although he said they were all of average quality and not very valuable jade.
But this is also a glimmer of hope, perhaps enough to make up for some of the losses.
Then, he looked at Huang Yaoji and said, "Mr. Huang, I have another batch of rough stones. My men just called and said they've all been cut open and found to be full of treasures!"
"Why don't you come with me and take a look? Maybe that batch of goods can make up for your losses!"
"Um?"
Huang Yaoji looked bewildered: "You have another batch of rough stones that have yielded treasures?"
"right!"
Liu Qingyao nodded vigorously: "Originally, I thought that batch of raw stones was worthless, but I didn't expect that my people would call just now and say that after cutting the stones, all of them turned out to be treasures."
"So, I wonder if the two truckloads of rough stones were mixed up, and your subordinates mistakenly gave you the batch of worthless stones that couldn't yield any treasure?"
In fact, she knew perfectly well that the raw stone was not mistaken at all.
However, she is currently unable to give Huang Yaoji and Wu Yifan an explanation, so she is hoping that she can get away with the rough stones.
"mistake?"
Huang Yaoji looked at her with suspicion: "Why do I feel like you're trying to fool me?"
"Mr. Huang, if you don't believe me, then forget it."
Liu Qingyao raised an eyebrow: "However, if you don't come with me to take a look, I simply won't be able to raise that much money to compensate you. Are you going to kill me?"
She was desperate and was determined to take a gamble.
Huang Yaoji frowned deeply. He had originally thought that Liu Qingyao was a favorite of the Hong Group and should be able to pay the 5 billion compensation.
However, since Liu Qingyao had already gone this far, I might as well go with her and see if what she said was true. It would be better than the two sides falling out.
After thinking for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, we'll go with you!"
"However, let me make this clear: if you're still putting on an act, don't blame us for being impolite."
"Don't worry, I wasn't acting!"
Seeing that the other party had agreed, Liu Qingyao immediately waved her hand, signaled her subordinates to get in the car, and drove Huang Yaoji and Wu Yifan to Gudechong.
Half an hour later, we stopped in front of an abandoned factory building.
After getting off the bus, Liu Qingyao couldn't wait to lead Huang Yaoji and Wu Yifan inside.
He walked along shouting, "Good Chong, come out!"
"President Liu, I'm here!"
Goode emerged from a corner.
Liu Qingyao glanced at him: "Where are the goods? Take us to see them!"
"Oh! This way, Mr. Liu, please come with me!"
Gudechong immediately took the lead, guiding Liu Qingyao deeper into the factory.
Soon, piles of raw stones appeared in front of them.
"Right here!"
Gudechong pointed to the rough stones and said, "They've all been cut open, and there are only two or three pieces of useless stone!"
Liu Qingyao glanced at it, and her heart immediately pounded.
All the raw stones have been cut open, and judging from the cut surfaces, they are definitely not waste stones.
However, their quality is very ordinary and their value is very low.
Still clinging to a sliver of hope, she looked at Huang Yaoji and Wu Yifan with a smile.
"President Huang, President Wu, look, it really isn't a useless stone; the treasure drop rate is ninety-nine percent."
Who are Huang Yaoji and Wu Fan? They are experienced jade merchants.
At first glance, it's clear that the quality of the rough stones above is quite ordinary.
Hearing Liu Qingyao say this, they did not immediately refute her. The two squatted down and turned out the raw stones that had been cut open one by one.
A moment later, the two stood up.
"Mr. Liu, are you trying to fool us with these inferior rough stones?"
Wu Yifan said with a cold smile.
"There's no misleading information here!"
Liu Qingyao feigned madness, pointing at the raw stones on the ground and saying, "There are only a few pieces of waste stone, the rest are jade!"
"Hehe! It really is jade, not a piece of junk!"
Huang Yaoji picked up a rough stone, smashed it on the ground, and roared angrily.
"Liu Qingyao, take a look at all these goods."
"You don't even know what jade is, it's just an ordinary gemstone?"
"This huge pile of jade is worth no more than three million. You want to use this junk to replace the original batch?"
Liu Qingyao was startled by his shout and said hesitantly.
"But at least it's not a piece of junk, right?"
"According to the unwritten rules of the rough stone trading industry, once you buy a rough stone, as long as it yields a valuable gem, there's no going back, right?"
"Um?"
"What did you say?"
Huang Yaoji stared at her with wide eyes.
After a long while, he laughed in anger.
"Hahaha……"
"Liu Qingyao, you're not only stupid, but you're also very good at playing tricks."
"You're smart, but you're also as stupid as a pig."
"You're talking to me about industry rules? That's hilarious!"
At this point, the laughter stopped, and he roared angrily.
"Liu Qingyao, we didn't buy this batch of goods from you, do you understand?"
"The problem with that batch of goods is what we need to resolve according to industry practice."
"Do you think we're fools to try and replace rough stones worth over a billion yuan with these stones worth a few million yuan?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wu Yifan angrily shouted from the side, "Liu Qingyao, stop talking nonsense and give us our money back!"
"Well……"
Liu Qingyao immediately broke down; she couldn't fool them with this batch of goods, and Huang Yaoji and the other man had already fallen out.
what to do?
She wanted to cry, but couldn't. In the end, she could only pretend to be pitiful to gain sympathy, and said in a tearful voice.
"Mr. Huang, Mr. Wu, I really didn't lie to you at all throughout the whole process."
"We just don't know where things went wrong, and dozens of tons of genuine products have become scrap."
"I didn't mean to at all."
"Now you want me to pay compensation, but I can't come up with five billion!"
"How about this: I'll return the more than one billion to you, and then compensate you with another one hundred million. Is that alright?"
"What? A hundred million in compensation?"
Huang Yaoji's face twisted into a ferocious grin: "Liu Qingyao, you really think we're fools."
"You cheated us with counterfeit goods and now you want to settle things with a refund and a 100 million yuan fine? You're dreaming."
We disagree with your proposal.
"We'll abide by the contract. We'll refund one part and compensate three parts in return. It's 5 billion, not a penny less!"
"If you don't agree, we won't get compensation, so we'll have to take your life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of white light appeared.
He had somehow acquired a dagger, which he held to her neck...
