Chapter 148 Binzhou City
Song Yilin was busy at the hotel when she suddenly received a video call from Xu Qingmin.
In the video, Xu Qingmin is walking briskly.
Xu Qingmin is usually calm and composed, and rarely seems to be in such a hurry.
"Yilin, the warehouse in the Northwest is on fire. I have to go to the scene. How's the situation on your end? Can you come to Binzhou and bring Guanqun back?"
Song Yilin jumped up and said, "Do you want me to go to the Northwest with you?"
Most of the Xu Group's business is located in Jianghai City. The main purpose of the branch offices in the Northwest is to support the local economy and create employment opportunities, as they are not profitable.
Xu Qingmin opened a cotton processing plant, combining it with local crops. If the factory there catches fire, it would be a very serious matter. It's not that he's worried about economic losses, since the Xu Group is so large and has insurance, but rather about the possibility of casualties.
"No need. You can't participate in firefighting even if you go. The main focus will be on post-disaster issues, and I also need to see for myself how badly the fire has spread."
After the fire, it's important to sort out the relationship with the fire department, as well as the cause of the fire, the division of responsibility, and the compensation for the injured and deceased.
Although Xu Qingmin is not directly responsible for the branch office's affairs, if he doesn't go, it would mean that the head office of Xu's Group doesn't value this matter. Therefore, Xu Qingmin must go.
As he spoke, Xu Qingmin boarded a shuttle bus.
Secretary Li is driving.
Judging from the looks of it, Xu Qingmin went there by private jet.
Xu Qingmin owns a private jet, but he doesn't usually fly on it. The plane is currently in Jianghai City.
"Did you fly there in a private jet?"
"Yes, there are no more flights to the Northwest today."
"Take care on your journey, don't worry about the child. I'm leaving for Binzhou now."
Song Yilin hung up the phone and immediately got up to knock on Xiao Zhang's door.
Xiao Zhang came out without even properly dressing when he heard her hurried voice.
"What's wrong? I have some family business to attend to and need to go to Binzhou City. You can choose to go home or come with me."
After all, she was going to Binzhou to take care of her child. Xiao Zhang was a work secretary, not a personal secretary. Xiao Zhang often worked overtime with her, so Song Yilin would try her best to let Xiao Zhang do her own things when she could rest.
Xiao Zhang quickly straightened his clothes: "President Song, I'll go to Binzhou with you. Anyway, I don't have anything to do at home."
"Alright, let's go. Let's book the fastest high-speed train to Binzhou."
At this moment, Mu Yunzi's flight landed, and she took Xu Yijing with her to Bai Guanqun's film crew.
Someone called Mu Yunzi from inside the car.
"Second Miss, Xu Qingmin has already boarded a flight to the Northwest. The flight will take more than five hours."
"Okay, well done."
Looking at Mu Yunzi's series of mysterious arrangements, Xu Yijing asked in confusion, "Auntie, who are you communicating with?"
"The bodyguards of our Muyun Group used to be the most loyal people to the Muyun Group. You must not forget the people who followed us all the way."
Xu Yijing didn't speak. Even his thirteen-year-old son knew that this wasn't ancient times, and he wasn't selling himself to a family anymore. In the past, servants were always brainwashed into absolute loyalty and obedience to their masters. People in the past couldn't even follow their masters forever, let alone now.
If these people continue to follow Mu Yunzi, it can only mean that Mu Yunzi has been paying them a salary.
The airport was only a 20-minute drive from the film set, so we arrived quickly.
At the entrance of the film set, Mu Yunzi gave Xu Yijing a push: "For the whole process of this, all you need to do is secretly bring Bai Guanqun out. When the time comes, we'll tie you up too, throw you off along the way, and the police will find you."
Xu Yijing knew that his aunt was leaving him a way out. He knew that if something happened, Xu Qingmin would only blame him for bringing Bai Guanqun out to play without permission.
Xu Yijing was still uneasy: "What happened after you kidnapped Bai Guanqun?"
"Don't worry, they won't hurt Bai Guanqun. They just want some ransom from Xu Qingmin. With this money, Muyun Group will have the funds to make a comeback."
Xu Yijing hesitated and asked, "Is that so?"
Mu Yunzi's expression immediately changed: "No buts. Don't you have any conscience? We just want some money. It's something the Xu family owes us. Don't forget, the Xu family owes your mother a life. Weigh it up, is that little bit of money more important or your mother's life?"
Xu Yijing recalled his mother lying in a pool of blood, and looked at the entrance of the film crew.
Take a deep breath.
He took two steps forward and then looked back at Mu Yunzi.
Seeing Xu Yijing's hesitant nature, Mu Yunzi's anger flared up again: "Hurry up and go, or you'll be too late if you keep acting like a girl. Don't disappoint your mother."
Xu Yijing disliked being told he was indecisive, which only strengthened his resolve to call Bai Guanqun out.
She turned around and immediately put on an innocent smile.
Someone stopped him when he tried to go in.
"Kid, this is a film set, you can't just go in and play around."
Xu Yijing said sincerely, "I know, I'm looking for Bai Guanqun, I'm her relative."
The staff carefully examined Xu Yijing.
Xu Yijing took out his phone and showed it to the staff. It was a photo from a while ago of Bai Guanqun returning to the Xu family to acknowledge his ancestors.
Although he couldn't enter the ancestral hall, he ate with them at dinner. At that time, his sister Xu Qingya had someone take some photos and post them on WeChat Moments. He didn't have the original photos; these were taken from Xu Qingya's WeChat Moments.
When the staff saw the photo, they found that it not only included Bai Guanqun, but also Xu Qingya and Xu Qingmin, as well as director Gu Sibei.
These are all industry leaders.
The staff member immediately switched to a respectful smile: "Student, Guanqun is in the third dressing room."
Xu Yijing gave the staff a warm smile: "Thank you."
Xu Yijing found the third dressing room, knocked on the door, and stuck his head out.
"Crown Group".
Bai Guanqun followed the sound and saw Xu Yijing, jumping up in surprise: "Xu Yijing, what brings you here?"
“My aunt brought me to Binzhou for a visit. Since you're here, I often see news reports of friends visiting each other on set, so I came to see you as a way of visiting you on set.”
Bai Guanqun jumped up and down and gave Xu Yijing a hug.
"That's great, you're my best uncle."
Are you busy next?
Bai Guanqun released Xu Yijing: "No rush, my filming for today is finished."
Xu Yijing suggested, "Let's go out for milk tea."
Aunt Li, who was standing next to Bai Guanqun, said, "No, you can't leave the film crew before your mother arrives."
Aunt Li is an auntie from the island in the middle of the lake. She doesn't know Xu Yijing. No matter who it is, Aunt Li won't let anyone take Bai Guanqun away.
Xu Yijing's face immediately fell: "I heard that milk tea shop is really good. I was thinking of taking you there to drink some. They also have some desserts that taste better when you eat them there."
