Stop while you're ahead (add 1,000)

The Changhe Town Police Station received four or five calls in a row, all saying that someone deliberately went to a newly opened company to cause trouble. When they heard the address, wasn't it the former Baiyou Garment Factory? !

When they heard that it was related to the former Baiyou Garment Factory, they felt a headache. The trouble started at the end of last year, and now only a shell of Baiyou remains. From time to time, people still cause trouble, either going to the homes of the factory leaders who sold Baiyou, or making trouble in front of the government gate, or even in front of Nansheng Company. In short, it was noisy and never stopped.

The previous factory manager of Baiyou bought most of Baiyou's things and sold them to Nansheng. He is nowhere to be found now. I heard that he ran away with his lover and even left his wife and children behind.

Because of this incident, many people came to their police station to make a fuss, asking them to bring the person back.

How to catch this? They haven't committed any crime. Buying and selling factories both follow formal procedures. You say they are wrong. What's wrong? Are all reasonable. Even if we find the person, what can we do?

Well, those people are just looking for an opportunity to make trouble and vent their anger.

So, when everyone heard that there was a commotion at the Baiyou Garment Factory, they all looked at each other and no one wanted to move.

The experienced policeman drank his tea leisurely and said, "It's okay, let them quarrel and vent their anger. They are just talking, they can't fight. We will go there later."

"That's right, let's go there later. The sun is too hot outside." Why are those troublemakers so energetic? Don’t they feel hot? Isn’t it good to sit comfortably at home with a fan? Do you have to go out and cause trouble?

A young policeman heard this and sat down again. After a while, he suddenly said, "No, that's not right. The old Baiyou factory has been sold. If I remember correctly, today is the opening day of their new company. Yes! The 18th, that's right, today. I have a cousin who works as a security guard at the factory. It's the opening day."

I thought to myself: I didn’t answer the call just now. Could it be that his cousin called the police? This uncle is his uncle's cousin, so he is also a family member. If he doesn't go to see him, what if he really encounters something...

"Why don't we go over and take a look? It's outrageous to cause trouble right after a new company opens. It will have a terrible impact. Who will come to Changhe Town to do business in the future?"

It used to be a gathering place for state-owned factories, with workers coming and going, and it was very lively. Now everyone has gone to the private factories in the south city to look for jobs.

Without a job, it is easy to cause trouble.

"Don't worry..." As he said that, the director received a phone call, and his attitude changed drastically. He kept saying "I'll be there right now". As soon as he hung up the phone, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go and take a look."

They heard the sound from a distance.

"Hey, these people are getting more and more creative with their methods of causing trouble. They even used loudspeakers. Before, they used banners, and this time, they used loudspeakers. Let's see what tricks they can come up with next time... No, the ones causing trouble today are those old rascals? Are the people holding the microphone employees of this new company?"

Interesting, it’s not what I imagined at all.

After listening for only a minute or two, their brows furrowed more and more: No, this company is a legitimate company, right? Come here just to quarrel?

After learning about the situation from the people watching the excitement nearby, their expressions became even more subtle. The girl who was shouting "Come on" was the new boss of this company?

And among the people who came to watch the fun, many are old faces. They have caused trouble in the past. Now they are so knowledgeable and sensible that they praise the new boss for his good scolding.

"We are causing trouble against those companies run by factory thieves and Japanese invaders. Director Geng and Boss Chen are not that kind of people, and we are not unreasonable people..."

Okay, be reasonable.

They have been troubled by these ruffians and although they would be happy if someone dealt with them, it is not a good idea to continue like this. Those old men and women who were sitting on the ground howling were there. It was such a hot day in July, and it was very hot and humid. If one of them fainted from heatstroke, it would be a mess if he was taken to the hospital.

"I say, everyone, listen to me for a few words! Put down the speakers first, put them down, turn off the speakers first."

When the police arrived, the man sitting on the ground became even more arrogant, spitting everywhere. "Quickly arrest them all, they are so vicious! Anyone can start a company? They just owe our family money and jobs."

The next second, the loudspeaker continued to sound: "A bunch of psychos! Crazy man! Crazy woman! Swindler! Money-swindler! Swindlers who cheat people, steal their money, steal their jobs, and kill their entire family! Lulululu!"

And then he would get close to the person causing the trouble and repeat the process over and over again.

Aunt Zhou got angry and rushed forward with a glare in her eyes, "Third sister, don't stop me, I will smash their stinky mouths today!"

"What are you doing? Public security comrades, you see, these people were the first to say they wanted to fight, arrest them all!"

"Catch you, you big-headed ghost!" Are you still so arrogant when you see the police? The wicked are the first to complain, right? Good, good, good! Chen Jin felt that he was fine again, so he honked the horn and continued, "The Public Security Bureau is owned by your family, so you can arrest them if you want. What's wrong with me saying a few words on my ground? You broke into my ground, so if I have to arrest someone, I'll arrest you first!"

"If I were your ancestor, I would kick over the coffin lid and arrest all of you tonight no matter what I say! Leaving you here will only bring you evil, and it will have nothing to do with human affairs."

"Ah! You stinky..."

Just as he was about to rush over, Aunt Zhou stepped forward, covered his mouth and pushed him towards the old man next to him.

Chen Jin immediately shouted, "Hey, everyone, come and see, these two shameless people are flirting with each other outside, so shameless! You guys, you have nothing to do all day and hang out together, right? The old man and the old lady are having more fun, look, right? I think those two with shifty eyes are a couple, and those three, are they together? Do your sons and daughters know about this?"

"What nonsense? Don't you have some relationship? How can you get together and make trouble every day? You say there is nothing going on between you two in private? Ask everyone if you believe it? Right? You don't believe it, and neither do I."

"Hehe, don't say that, you really know how to live. Old men and old ladies get together, and several families can help each other, right? Look, they are forming a group to cause trouble."

"Oh my, you're so angry, I must have been right! Hey, I was wrong just now, you two look more like a couple."

"Look, look, you guys just helped her, now where are you putting your hands? There must be an affair going on, you guys in the compound really know how to have fun."

Chen Jin said this with such confidence, as if it were really true. The people in the clothing factory's family compound knew that what she said was a bit outrageous, but no one spoke up for her. They just defended her by saying, "It's their business if they mess around. It has nothing to do with our compound!"

"That's right. They hang out together every day. Who knows what kind of relationship they have behind the scenes? But it's not the case for other people in our compound. We are all innocent."

If you want to defend yourself, you can also step on others.

Her son has now been chosen by Director Geng to work in the company. It's obvious which side her son's new boss and the old ruffian in the compound are on.

Several onlookers whose family members work in this company came to lend their support, saying, "That's right, there must be some shameful relationship between them, otherwise how could they hang out together and cause trouble every day?"

"Really? The more I look at them, the more they look alike. No wonder that guy and that guy are always calling each other brother and sister. They are so frivolous and shameless. Their children must know about it, right?"

All the police officers felt headaches and there was a loud buzzing sound in their ears. I really want to just turn around and leave. What is going on? They shouldn't have come here. By coming here they have only encouraged the arrogance of these hooligans. They just got scolded so much that they couldn't even say a word.

They really made this trip in vain.

But now that we’re here, we can’t just pretend we’ve never been here and just turn around and leave, right?

How did the quarrel develop from debts and jobs to a few old people fooling around with each other?

The police looked at Chen Jin, who was the first to add fuel to the fire and divert attention. They said they had never seen such a company boss. After a long while, the young police officer in the station finally said, "Being able to get along well with the working class shows that this boss is down-to-earth."

"......"

Is "getting along with others" not the "getting along with others" that they know about? It would be more reasonable to change it to "cursing everyone".

"This new boss is bullying us old ones!"

Howling again? Chen Jin sneered, "Who is your boss? Who are you insulting? I don't want people like you even if I have money to spend in Nanjiang. You old bastard! You old scoundrel! You have no shame!"

"No, Boss Chen, calm down first and listen to me first."

"You asked them to stop first, why should we stop first? This is the land I bought, it's my territory. They are making trouble but they are not calm, why should I be calm? I'm going to make this clear today. I, Chen Jin, am different from your former factory leaders. Do you want to take advantage of me just because you want to make trouble? Even if you hang yourself at the door of my company today, it has nothing to do with me."

"Uncle Wang, go get them some ropes. The tree next to the gate is the most suitable. Hang two first. It's okay if you think hanging doesn't look good. Uncle Wang, buy them some paraquat. Consider it a free treat. I want to see how many pairs of mandarin ducks die today. You can reincarnate and become human beings sooner. Maybe you won't have to hide your life from others in your next life."

"......"

The old policeman was almost laughed to death by her. They were angry that she didn't listen to them, but they also found her words funny.

If anyone else said this, they would think that this person was being unreasonable. But this young boss made the "arrangements" in a serious and earnest manner, and he didn't yell at people. Just look at his demeanor... He was so angry that he was jumping up and down, and at the same time he was cursing people in a stable mood, thinking that they were an easy target, but he hit a wall, right? !

"Comrade Public Security, I bought this piece of land. I didn't invite them to perform. On the first day of my opening, they came here singing and howling like crazy. Tell me, is it their fault? If you say there is no problem, then I will bring people to perform door to door tomorrow."

"Yes, it is indeed their problem. What they did was wrong. You guys should calm down and turn off the loudspeaker." The loudspeaker was really too noisy.

How can this be closed? When you turn off the phone, your voice becomes weaker. Chen Jin said: "I'm not angry, I'm not angry at all. They insisted on looking for trouble, and I argued with them in a nice way. If I were angry, I would have slapped them a long time ago. What kind of person is this? Why don't they be good people and insist on being dumb beasts."

"Hey, Third Sister, have you explained everything clearly? It's time for us to have dinner." The eldest uncle came over to smooth things over, as if he had just noticed the people on the ground. "Oh, you guys are so enthusiastic in your performance? You are better than the people in our village. In our village, people don't roll around on the ground like this. If you can quarrel, you quarrel. If you can't quarrel, you take knives and sticks, but no one rolls around on the ground."

Chen Jin laughed and said, "I don't know where this old zombie came from, but he's casting a spell here. Uncle, did you see it just now? It's waving its claws and fangs, doesn't it look like the old zombies in zombie movies? I was almost dying of laughter just now. I don't know who was so kind to hire some acrobats to perform for me when I opened my company."

"......" The police and the onlookers were all convinced: this young boss really has no taboos and can talk about anything. You can never guess what she will say next. Anyway, it's all her talking. How can you follow her train of thought when she's cursing?

The few people who were watching in the crowd looked at each other, then moved forward and said with a smile: "They are ignorant, Boss Chen, please give me some face..."

"Who are you? You still want me to give you face? You are my dad? My dad is buried in the ground right now, why don't you answer him?" Chen Jin glanced over, "It's you again. Last time you said you were the leaders of the factory and were coming back to work, it was hilarious. I was thinking, there are also gifts when buying an empty factory, it's okay to give away other things, but what's the point of giving away a few pieces of garbage?"

"I gave you face last time and talked to you nicely, but you didn't understand? Do you know how to read? Didn't you see what was written on the sign in front? Public Security Comrade, these few people caused trouble last time. I just can't figure it out. The leadership position of the state-owned factory used to be like the throne, and it has to be hereditary? Now that it has become a private factory, we still have to accept these feudal remnants, right?"

"You have no ability, but you are a bureaucrat. Do you think you can stand out by finding a few people to cause trouble? Didn't I tell you last time that if you come to my place to cause trouble, I will also go to your family members' workplace to cause trouble?"

"You want to say it wasn't you? Come on, why are you pretending to be so mean to me? You are all thousand-year-old foxes, why are you playing Liao Zhai? I just don't want to beat around the bush with you. Whether you admit it or not, in my opinion, you are the ones who instigated the trouble today."

After Chen Jin finished speaking, he raised his hand and called out to the onlookers, saying, "Everyone, come and take a look at these people. They are really vicious. They teamed up with the previous factory director to sell the factory's products at a low price. Hey, the director ran away, and they didn't get any advantage. Now they want to come to me and sell the factory again to make money?"

"Look at them, they are all so fat and bloated. I think instead of holding banners to ask for justice, it is better to report these people for corruption. Who knows how much they have embezzled in the past..."

These people were relatively calm, but they couldn't stand Chen Jin's unreasonable demands. "The previous accounts were all clean. If there were any problems, they would have been found out long ago. Don't confuse me here. I have been working diligently in the factory for more than 20 years..."

"I don't give a shit about you working so hard for more than 20 years! I don't give a shit about how well you do your job! Are you here to get a speech from the leader? You've told so many lies that you've moved yourself. If you want to say something, go home and tell it yourself. No matter how much you say, you can't get into my company."

"If you don't want to go in, then don't go in! Even if you beg me..."

"I beg you, I beg your ancestors to quickly give you a brain. You are just pretending. If you don't want to work in my company, can you find someone to make a scene? Hey, you never expected it, I won't let you in even if you make a scene. If you make a scene, come and make a scene with me tomorrow. I know where your sons and daughters work. If you work on the first day of the new year, I will work on the second day tomorrow."

Make fifteen? You can't wait even one more day.

"Dad! What are you doing here?!" A young man rushed in and tried to take the man away.

"Hey, public security comrades, you heard it, they themselves admitted that they came here to cause trouble. After all, they used to be leaders of a state-owned factory, they really don't care about their dignity at all."

"Which unit does this guy work for? I'm going to talk to his leader tomorrow. How can he get things done if he can't even manage his family?" Chen Jin laughed secretly. What a stupid teammate she had on the other side. Hey, she was dying of laughter!

"Don't tell me? Are you afraid of getting in trouble? Fine. Whoever is the first to tell me some news that I don't know, I'll give him a thousand dollars as a reward."

The crowd gasped. This, this is really... Looking around quietly, do you want to tell me? I wouldn't dare to say anything if you don't say it, but if you dare to open your mouth, I will definitely be the first to speak.

What is the news that Boss Chen doesn’t know? I always feel like she knows a little too much...

Now it’s good. There’s no need for the police to suppress the situation. It’s very quiet.

At least the hooligans who came to cause trouble and a few former leaders who had just come out to smooth things over were quite quiet, and they all stared at Chen Jin.

If this happened before today, what would they be afraid of? A young and wealthy second-generation man started a company and hired Geng Xin and his former colleagues to work there. It must be easy to grasp.

After an hour-long quarrel, they also felt a little scared: they had never seen a boss who spoke so viciously and made it so difficult to follow his words. No, she has too much money to burn, right? Also, will she really find someone to cause trouble at her son/daughter’s workplace? !

Chen Jin chuckled, "Are you all speechless? You were quite impressive just now, weren't you? Keep rolling around. My land isn't clean enough yet, so our company won't have to hire someone to clean it."

"Boss Chen..." The public security officer looked at her helplessly. Why not stop while you're ahead?

Later, Wei Zhenhua and Xiang Qian also came out with their friends and asked with concern, "Have you finished preparing for this?"

The chief of the police station came forward to greet him, "Captain Xiang, I didn't expect you to be here too."

"Yes, Boss Chen is my friend. Her company just opened, and we came here to join in the fun. Oh, this is Liao Ke from the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission. He has come to Baiyou to inspect our work many times before. Baiyou's transformation into a private enterprise was approved by him, and he said he just happened to come and see the situation. Chief Liao just said that Baiyou had already compensated the laid-off workers, but there were still people making trouble. Did the previous leaders embezzle the money and everyone didn't get the money..."

"No, no, that's absolutely not the case!" The man who just jumped out to speak didn't dare to stay any longer and said, "This is just a misunderstanding. I have something to do. I have to leave first."

"...I have something to do too."

Chen Jin smiled and said, "Hey, wouldn't it be better if you guys just jumped out earlier? I wouldn't have to argue with the people you brought here for so long. You could just come out earlier and ask the leaders of your former department to talk to you and ask them to care about your current work problems. It would be more harmonious."

However, it would be good to get rid of all the evildoers at once. Next time you come to cause trouble, first find out about Jin Shun’s reputation and think about yourself. She's not afraid anyway.

The third uncle and his men also came out, and together with the eldest uncle, they handed cigarettes to the police who came over. Geng Xin also led people to distribute candies and biscuits to the people who came to watch the fun. "Our company has just opened, and the boss said that everyone should come to share in the good fortune. In the future, when the company recruits people, it will still give priority to those who were previously ranked as top 100 candidates. Don't worry."

There were still a few people who had not left and were left aside, with no one paying any attention to them.

It was as if no one had just argued with them. But it's just as if, they are still having a hard time breathing, and feel very uncomfortable in their hearts. Especially those ruffians, they have never failed to make trouble and always get some advantage more or less.

Now, people who open businesses and give out food avoid them.

"Hey, Third Sister, go tell your friends to get ready. It's time to go over for dinner."

Chen Jin also knew when to quit. He had scolded people, raised the banner, and finally felt relieved. He happily called on the aunts who came to help to get in the car quickly.

"I have to toast to the aunts later. I'll say that our Qiaodong Village cannot do without you."

Aunt Zhou and the others laughed, "That's right!"

Wei Zhenhua and Xiang Qian paused. Is it possible that they can't do it without someone?

"Come on, what are you two standing there for? Thank you, thank you, it's a good thing you came to help today."

Xiang Qian laughed out loud, "We are purely here to add icing on the cake."

Chen Jin invited everyone to go to the restaurant together. Seeing that there was still space in the car, he arranged for the friends invited by Geng Xin to go in. He also asked someone to call a few taxis.

When the factory has enough money, we will buy two buses, which will make it more convenient to eat.

Qin Yi took a deep breath and asked earnestly: "Teacher Chen, do you have any skills in quarreling that you can teach me?"

As soon as he asked the question, Xue Zhonghua and Xiong Jiahao patted him on the head: Asking this kind of question, do you have Nanjiang in your head?

But everyone looked at Chen Jin, their eyes flashing with a strong desire for knowledge.

Chen Jin took over the meowing orange dog and said, "Arguing is not about reasoning. You should just attack them. Attack them in any way that comes to your mind. Attack them whenever you can. The main goal is to catch them by surprise."

He concluded: "Let's just say that when someone says something about the earth, you answer with the sky, and it will go crazy."
