Ye Beiping sent over gold bars worth several thousand yuan. When they go back, they can treat the people who helped them to a meal for a dozen yuan. It's not a loss for them.
It seemed the two had already discussed it, and they went back to Li Peiqiang's room, only to find that Xu Yun was there.
Li Peiqiang frowned and asked, "Where is he?"
"Oh." Xu Yun glanced at the door and said, "He left first. Ye Beiping went to the police station in Donghu District. What's Director Li's decision?"
Li Peiqiang had originally reached an agreement with Wei Daming, but looking at Xu Yun's expression, he suddenly felt something was wrong.
These past two days, Xu Yun seems to have been helping Ye Beiping. Why is that?
But because of his status, he didn't dare to ask.
"I've thought it through. Accountant Xu, make a call to the factory and arrange for someone to stand by the phone today..." Li Peiqiang quickly gave instructions.
Given how much Xu Yun has helped Ye Beiping, it's best for her to do this.
Even if something goes wrong in the future, the factory manager won't push all the responsibility onto me. Plus, Xu Yun's identity means he's on the same side as me, so it's a win-win situation.
Seeing this, Wei Daming gave some instructions and then went to make a phone call.
Around 1 p.m.
Ye Beiping and Jiang Hai, who arrived at the police station early, had already been detained. Old Wu, who guarded the warehouse, was also unable to leave, as there were still cases to be investigated.
When the police asked if they wanted to notify their families, Ye Beiping and Jiang Hai firmly refused.
Su Xinyi is pregnant. If she tells the other party that she has been arrested at this time, it may easily affect the fetus. She is already five months pregnant and can't afford any accidents.
Otherwise, with current medical technology, there's no guarantee there won't be problems.
But some people thought differently, and two people had already hurriedly headed towards Ye Beiping's house.
"Ye Beiping, come out." A policeman said as he opened the door.
Ye Beiping hesitated for a moment, then stood up: "What can I do for you, officer?"
"Are you Ye Beiping?" the policeman asked, frowning.
"yes."
Upon hearing the answer, the police officer pursed his lips and closed the door again: "There are two people outside who claim to be the sales directors of Jiangnan Leather Factory and First Leather Shoe Factory. They said that the warehouse is jointly rented by the two factories, so they asked you to come out and inquire."
Around noon, the higher-ups gave instructions that this case must be handled seriously.
Just as they were about to begin the interrogation, two people suddenly appeared and said that the warehouse was rented by a state-owned factory for the convenience of selling in Hangzhou.
This makes things more difficult.
If it really was rented by a state-owned factory, then there was no speculation or profiteering involved. It was a legal procedure for a state-owned factory to rent a warehouse for the convenience of sales.
He was taken to a small room where Ye Beiping met Li Peiqiang, Wei Daming, and Xu Yun.
They nodded slightly and greeted each other with smiles.
The police officer's expression darkened further; he hadn't expected the two sides to actually know each other.
The police also verified the identities of Li Peiqiang and Wei Daming; they were indeed the sales department directors of two state-owned factories.
It seemed that things weren't as the whistleblower had described, and the police officer's face darkened.
"Ye Beiping, when did you rent this warehouse?"
"More than two months ago," Ye Beiping answered truthfully.
The police officer glanced at Lao Wu's statement, then looked up and continued, "According to this warehouse worker, he has been working at the warehouse for two months, and the person who pays his salary has always been a man named Jiang Hai. There are also several other people who frequently come to pick up goods. We have also found some of their names in some warehouse records. Can you explain this?"
As he spoke, he handed the warehouse entry and exit records to Ye Beiping.
Ye Beiping glanced at them briefly and said, "These people are all self-employed individuals in Hangzhou. They run clothing stores, so there's nothing wrong with them getting goods from the warehouse, right? Besides, these goods were directly transported to the warehouse by Jiangnan Leather Factory and the First Leather Shoe Factory."
Knowing that Li Peiqiang and Wei Daming were coming to testify, his confidence soared, and he unconsciously raised his voice.
"This warehouse belongs to Jiangnan Leather Factory and No. 1 Leather Shoe Factory. Due to the general environment, there is no regulation that state-owned factories cannot rent warehouses in Hangzhou and sell goods to individual businesses, right?"
The police officer was taken aback by Ye Beiping's retort.
Indeed, there are no regulations that say you can't do this, since the area of economic law is relatively weak, practically nonexistent.
Ye Beiping glanced at the policeman and continued, "Also, Director Li and Director Wei jointly asked me to come and help, which is to manage this warehouse. Although I am not a formal employee of either factory, I am considered a temporary worker. It is only right for me to ask someone to come and help me look after the warehouse, isn't it?"
"As for Jiang Hai paying my salary, he's my friend. I usually stay home to take care of my pregnant wife, so it's reasonable for me to have my friend do it for me, right?"
"Also, I signed the lease agreement, and the people who took the goods paid me for them. I then made two separate payments to the two state-owned factories, and there are bank receipts for all of this. As for whether I profited in the middle, that's not the police's business, but the state-owned factories' business, isn't it?"
"This..." The police officer was speechless after hearing this.
