"It's no use regretting it now. If I had known this would happen, why did I do it in the first place?"
Wang Mudan said coldly that the three words "Luo Yingtao" were simply the nightmare of her life and a thorn in her heart that she could not remove. They were fined more than three million last time, and before they could catch their breath, they were defrauded of more than five million. This order almost drained all of Mingdan Company's cash flow. Where would they get so much money to keep the company running?
The monthly expenses of more than 600 people’s salaries, rent, water and electricity bills, and various management and sales fees add up to several million. Is it possible that more than ten years of hard work will be wasted?
Wang Mudan felt extremely unwilling. Could it be that she was defeated by Luo Yingtao, a fickle woman?
Now that the scam has become a foregone conclusion, where is she going to get so much money to keep the company running?
Because the amount of money defrauded from Mingdan Company was huge, the police opened an investigation after filing a case. After investigation, they learned that Li Xiaoliang was Gao Huai's cousin. It was he who was entrusted by Gao Huai to visit Mingdan Company's factory. It was also he who went to inspect the goods before shipment. It was impossible for him to be completely unaware of the transaction.
In order to investigate the cause of the case, the police rushed to Li Xiaoliang's hometown and took him back to Nanzhong City to assist in the investigation on suspicion of committing a crime.
The police took Li Xiaoliang back to the Nanzhong City Public Security Bureau and interrogated him.
"What is your relationship with Gao Huai?" asked the police.
"He is my uncle's son and I am his cousin."
Previously, Li Xiaoliang thought that he really didn't know that Gao Huai had set up a trap to frame Si Mingda, and that this matter had nothing to do with him. Unexpectedly, the police actually took him back to Nanzhong City on the pretext of assisting in the investigation. Once he arrived at the Public Security Bureau, he could no longer be self-righteous. He had no choice but to truthfully confess the details he knew and try not to be implicated. No one would be stupid enough to go to jail, not to mention that he really didn't know about the scam.
"Tell us about Gao Huai's situation in detail." The three-person interrogation team began the serious interrogation process. Li Xiaoliang had no choice but to answer honestly according to their requirements:
"After graduating from university, Gao Huai returned to his hometown and taught for five years. Later, his family suffered a sudden disaster. His parents died in an accident, and the family's financial situation plummeted. He had been pampered since childhood and had never suffered any hardship. He always thought that his parents were his strongest support. However, he never expected that his parents, who had always been kind and enthusiastic, would be murdered by robbers in their home. His death in such a tragic way suffered a huge mental shock. After that incident, he always felt that he did not get the care of others in his hometown. After his parents were killed, he felt very depressed. In order to get rid of the shadow of the bloody incident, he resigned from the school and came to Nanyou City to work. Because of his good English, he has been engaged in foreign trade since arriving in Nanyou City. Six years ago, he went out on his own to set up a foreign trade company. At that time, I had just graduated from university, and he asked me to come to his company to work."
"Is he good to you? What's his personality like?" the police asked.
"My mother is his aunt, and our family has always taken good care of him, so he treated me well. In the first few years of the company, his business was good, so he brought his wife and children over. Two years ago, for some unknown reason, he didn't get paid for a product, and he lost a lot of money to the supplier. Soon after, his wife divorced him and returned to her hometown with the children. Since then, he has changed a lot. His personality has become dull and eccentric. He soon fired several other people in the company, leaving only Xiaoqi and me. We are all his relatives, and he trusts us very much. For the past two years, the three of us have been running the company."
"When did he ask you to go to Mingdan Company to inspect the factory?"
Li Xiaoliang thought for a moment and said, "It seems like it was around September last year when he gave me a phone number. It was the number of Simingda, the boss of Mingdan Company. He asked me to contact Simingda because he had a big deal to discuss."
"Did he tell you it was an electromechanical product?"
"Yes."
"How did you respond to him? Did you have any doubts?"
"We've been dealing in home furnishings for a long time. He told me the other day that a customer wanted to purchase some electromechanical products, specifically from Mingdan, and the amount was over five million. I was a little puzzled at the time. Electromechanical products are completely different from our industry, so why did he suddenly want to purchase them? And he specifically wanted to buy them from Mingdan. I casually asked about it, and he snapped at me, telling me not to ask too much and just to contact Simingda to discuss and visit the factory."
"Didn't you have any doubts during this whole process?"
"Of course I had my doubts, but he wouldn't let me ask. He's my boss and my cousin, so I had no choice but to listen to his advice. If he didn't let me ask, I wouldn't dare ask."
After Li Xiaoliang arrived at the Public Security Bureau, he realized the seriousness of the problem. At this time, he had no choice but to explain the matter as clearly as possible so that he could successfully exonerate himself. Although family affection is important, in comparison, going to jail and taking responsibility is more difficult to accept.
"What do you suspect?" the police officer asked.
"First of all, the place I just visited, we sell home furnishings. He asked me to visit the Mingdan factory and told me they wanted to purchase electromechanical products. He also specifically told me not to mention his name in front of Simingda, and just to say the boss was a foreigner. I suspected at the time that he might know Simingda. If he did, why didn't he contact him himself, but instead asked me to visit the factory?"
"Have you ever told him about your suspicion that he knew Simingda?"
"I asked him, but he didn't give a direct answer. I have long suspected that they knew each other. As for whether there was any conflict between them, I really don't know." Li Xiaoliang defended himself innocently.
"Go on." The police didn't care whether Li Xiaoliang was really innocent or not. They just wanted to investigate the case as soon as possible.
