"Enough!" Zhang Wanru's chest heaved violently with anger, and her whole body trembled.
Seeing this, Tong Jiaojiao was afraid that Tong Jun would have a relapse and collapse, and then rely on her, so she advised Tong Jun, "Jun Jun, forget it, let's go quickly."
Tong Jun, still fuming, retorted with a stiff neck, "I'm a guest, why should I leave?"
The sales assistant quickly chimed in, "Yes, yes, you are our most valued customer."
At this moment, Butler Li walked in. He had taken the boss out to inspect the goods after seeing the heated argument between the two sides.
He walked over to Zhang Wanru and whispered, "Madam, their offer is too low."
The shop owner hurriedly said, "Three hundred thousand is really not low. The material of this bed is average, and the craftsmanship is also average. My price is absolutely fair. If you don't believe me, go out and ask around. No one else in the entire market will offer a higher price than me."
Zhang Wanru was already furious. When she heard that the price was only 300,000, which was far less than the 500,000 she had expected, she said angrily, "Such a good bed, and you only give 300,000? You are too greedy."
The shop owner sighed and said helplessly, "I'm a man of my word. This is the honest price. If you don't believe me, go out and ask around."
Lin Rou also felt that the price was too low, so she changed her attitude and said to Zhang Wanru, "Mom, let's go to a few more places and ask."
"Don't go! Here's what we'll do: 320,000 yuan, I'll take it." Tong Jun said with a sneer, "I'll take it home and let my dog Steve sleep in it."
Tong Jun owns a white curly-haired West Highland White Terrier. He is a staunch non-marriage advocate and treats Steve like his son. It's only natural for him to buy his dog a nice bed to sleep in. However, his insistence on buying it for the dog is simply to infuriate Zhang Wanru.
Zhang Wanru was indeed furious with him. He even let the dog sleep in the bed. Did he know that only the head of the Lin family, Lin Haoran, could sleep in such a nice bed? After she and Lin Haoran started sleeping separately, she could only sleep in a mahogany bed.
"You wish!" Zhang Wanru said through gritted teeth, "I'd rather throw it away than sell it to you."
After saying that, he took his daughter's hand and turned to leave.
Watching them leave, Tong Jun rolled her eyes several times and said to Tong Jiaojiao:
"Auntie, do you believe it or not, after they go around in circles, they'll come back and beg me to buy it."
Tong Jiaojiao thought it was impossible: "She's so angry, how could this be? Let's go."
Tong Jun sneered, "Poverty makes people lose their ambition. Twenty thousand yuan is nothing when you're rich, but it's a lot when you're poor. I'll wait for them here. Auntie, you should go back first."
After saying that, he sat down in a grand chair in the center of the store and said to the sales assistant, "Give me a cup of tea."
Seeing that his nephew was at odds with the Lin family mother and daughter, Leng Feng shook his head and said to Tong Jiaojiao:
"Let's go, the math exam is almost over, let's go pick up the kids."
......
Meanwhile, Lin Haoran arrived at Lin's Company.
Lin Haoran rushed back because he wanted to transfer the money from the public account to his private account and convert it into cash before the Dong family demanded it. Once it was converted into cash, it would be difficult for the court to trace its whereabouts.
But as soon as he arrived at the office building, he saw many of his own employees walking out with their laptops, and he was completely stunned.
He grabbed a low-level employee who was about to leave and asked, "Where are you going during work hours? What are you doing with the company computer?"
"HR told me I'm being laid off. What's the point of me going to work? This computer is part of my severance pay." The employee impatiently shook off Lin Haoran's hand.
"Hey, don't block my way, I'm busy reporting to my new company."
Lin Haoran panicked. What layoffs? What severance pay? He had no idea.
He rushed into the company, and as soon as he entered the office area, he saw through the glass window that Xu Mo was sitting casually in the main seat of the conference room, with his legs directly on the conference table and flipping through several reports in his hands.
He was surrounded by the vice president, HR director, finance director, and administration director of Lin's company...
All the company's middle-level managers surrounded him.
Lin Haoran stormed into the conference room, shouting angrily, "What are you doing here? What are you all doing?"
When Xu Mo saw him arrive, he calmly tossed the documents in his hand onto the table and said with a smile, "I'm here to help President Lin finish the bankruptcy proceedings as soon as possible."
Xu Mo felt extremely guilty towards Lin An.
Lin An wanted to see the Lin family go bankrupt before he finished his science exams. Of course, he wanted to help his good friend fulfill this small wish.
However, being a businessman, he naturally knew that a company's bankruptcy involved many aspects, such as how to file a report with the labor bureau, how to resettle employees, and how to liquidate assets...
These are things that Lin Haoran, that good-for-nothing, probably can't handle; Xu Mo will have to personally guide him.
"This is my company, I don't need your help, and the company isn't bankrupt yet, get out of here!" Lin Haoran roared.
Xu Mo chuckled coldly a few times and stood up: "Your company? Who said that?"
Lin Haoran was stunned for a moment, then pointed to the words "Lin's Company" on the wall and said angrily, "Lin's Company, my surname is Lin, if it's not mine, whose is it?"
Xu Mo threw a lease termination notice in front of him: "You've terminated your lease here. The landlord has already sublet the floor to Xiao An Company. There's no place for your Lin's Company anymore."
Lin Haoran clearly remembered that the office building lease was valid until the end of the year, so how could it have expired? He looked at the administrative director with disbelief and asked, "What's going on?"
The administrative director gave an awkward laugh and said, "The finance director said there's no money to pay the employees' salaries and severance pay, so I terminated the lease to get some money to share with everyone."
The administrative director's words were like a bolt from the blue, and Lin Haoran stared blankly at the financial director.
The CFO awkwardly said, "Well, Mr. Lin, all our partners have terminated their contracts with us. After settling the payments, we really didn't save any money."
Lin Haoran's eyes were bloodshot as he roared, "I'm asking you, why did you pay the employees?"
The HR director stepped forward and said softly, "Since there's no work to do, there's no point in keeping the employees, so we're laying them off. Layoffs definitely require settling wages and paying severance."
Lin Haoran was furious, grabbing his hair with both hands and yelling, "Who approved your layoffs? Who gave you permission to pay severance?"
"General Manager, I submitted an OA (Office of Staff) application for layoffs, and it was approved. Paying severance pay is a requirement of the Labor Contract Law," the HR director said with a shrug.
"Yes, I only stamped it after the system approved it," the vice president added.
Upon hearing this, Lin Haoran felt like crying but had no tears. Everyone in the company knew that the general manager of Lin's Company was Lin Wan, and she had not come to work since her mother's surgery.
