Wu Bingzhong, Elder Yang, and others haven't returned to the capital yet; they're still in Heihe. After making the call, Wu Yucheng hurriedly went to the border defense post.
Over the next few days, Tengyue Company continued to trade with the other side of the river, and the goods shipped over were all piled up at the dock.
The goods piled up higher and higher, but no customers came to collect them.
Following Sheng Xiping's instructions, Wang Dongcheng went to the hotel every day to meet with the businessmen and discuss matters with them.
But those merchants were threatened, so how could they dare to show their faces?
Some hid in hotels, too afraid to come out, while many others simply bought tickets to go home and temporarily avoid trouble.
Suddenly, the once bustling border trade became deserted.
Not only were Tengyue Company's goods unwanted, but other people's goods were also stuck in their hands.
Some people couldn't hold back and went to the Economic and Trade Bureau, but the Economic and Trade Bureau couldn't handle this either. They could only report it to their superiors and wait for instructions.
The city leaders couldn't figure out the situation in a short time, so naturally they couldn't come up with an effective solution.
For a moment, everyone was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, not knowing what to do.
Tengyue Company's goods had already filled the dock, so they had no choice but to stop trading with the other side of the river.
These past few days, rumors have been circulating in the city that the CEO of Tengyue Company is so anxious he's about to hang himself.
They have a large amount of money tied up here, and their cash flow is tight. If they don't sell the goods soon, the company will go bankrupt.
On the morning of the 26th day of the first lunar month, Sheng Xiping took his men to the dock. Looking at the mountains of goods piled up in front of him, he was so worried that he almost cried.
"Hey, isn't this the famous President Sheng? Weren't you so smug before? What's wrong with you now? Why do you look so worried?"
A group of men wearing yellow coats, with long hair, cigarettes in their mouths, and heads tilted, thinking themselves cool and unrestrained but actually being idiots, strolled leisurely to the dock.
One of the men, who had a scar on his face, spoke up with great pride.
"Who are you? Do you need something from me?" Sheng Xiping looked at the other party and asked with a puzzled expression.
"Of course I need to talk to you."
The scarred man spat his cigarette butt on the ground, rubbed it with his foot, and then pointed to a tall, thin man next to him.
"This is our Brother Liang. He wants to discuss a business deal with you."
Sheng Xiping glanced at the man. Among this group of people, this was the only one who looked somewhat pleasing to the eye. His clothes were neat and clean, and he had a touch of the refined air of a scholar.
"I wonder what kind of business the boss wants to discuss with me?" Sheng Xiping feigned anxiety, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.
