Chapter 50
Ying Zhao thought freely along the way and arrived at the laboratory very quickly. She had calculated the time before coming. At this time, the test results of a sample came out, which was about her research on menstruation.
After bowing to the equipment with great anticipation, Ying Zhao carefully opened it.
Unfortunately, it looked wrong at first glance. I didn't believe it and took it out carefully to see that it was indeed extremely bad.
This kind of situation is perfectly normal in research, but it still makes one sigh. Suddenly, a call came in. I answered it wearily, only to find it was the same lawyer from last time.
"Hello, I'm sorry to bother you so late. This happened suddenly. There are two suspects who defrauded you, both minors. However, after being arrested, one of them refused to plead guilty, and all compensation was paid by one of them. I have been communicating with the other for a long time, but they have always refused to agree and take responsibility. I had no choice but to explain that there may be problems with school, work, and medical care in the future. I am bothering you now to ask for your help in repaying the other person and issuing a letter of apology. The other person was detained during the school inspection and is currently in the correctional facility."
Ying Zhao listened and nodded, "Okay, can we just send the letter of understanding via the interstellar network?"
"Yes, thank you for your help."
The next day, Ying Zhao shared this story with everyone.
Yao Si pouted, "Sister Ying Zhao, aren't you giving that guy a run for his money? Why didn't he think about the consequences when he defrauded you? Now that he needs it, he's asking a lawyer for a letter of apology. His attitude isn't sincere at all."
Ji Wenxue actually favored Ying Zhao's approach. "But didn't Sister Ying Zhao say that the child was a minor and that she was responsible for all the compensation? I think it's best to forgive them while you can. Why not give them another chance?"
After hearing what Ji Wenxue said, Ying Zhao nodded and said, "After all, the money is returned and the apology has been made..." Then he looked at Wan Di and Jiang Zouwei, wanting to know what they thought.
Receiving Ying Zhao's gaze, Wan Di spoke first, "It's only natural to be punished for making mistakes. The money was returned not out of conscience but because he was caught. Even if such a person is forgiven, people will only think he is stupid." She has seen too many examples like this. People are born bad, and in fact, more powerful violence than good persuasion can deter others.
"But maybe I'm too pessimistic when I think this way. You can make whatever decision you want about your own affairs." Wandi smiled and added.
Jiang Zouwei looked at the expression on Ying Zhao's face, and gradually relaxed from the tension. "I don't like dealing with people. Normally, if I encounter something like this, I will kill them all."
The people sitting opposite took a breath when they heard this and gave thumbs up in amazement.
Wandi smiled even more happily and touched Jiang Zouwei's cheek, "Amazing!"
Jiang Zouwei, who remained calm even when faced with a mountain collapse, finally couldn't help but blush amid everyone's teasing. He cleared his throat twice and looked at Wandi, "Aren't we still going to Mouth Star?"
"Today? Didn't we just come back from Zuiba Star? What are we going to do?" Yao Si asked. She wanted to decide whether she wanted to join in the fun based on the answer.
"Set some rules." Wandi stood up and said.
"Can we go?" Yao Si and Ji Wenxue asked eagerly, their bright eyes wide open. It sounded very interesting, so of course they wanted to go.
Wandi nodded and looked at Ying Zhao again. Ying Zhao thought about it and shook his head, "The experiment failed. I'll do it again today."
"Okay, contact us if you have any problems." After giving the instructions, Wan Di took the others and flew to the Mouth Star.
Gathering all the masked men together, a total of twelve, Wan Di looked around and said, "I don't care what you were like before, but from now on, you will be on probation for one month under me. If you do well, you will be promoted and get a raise. If you don't, you will step down and let someone more capable do the job."
Wandi's words were blunt, and as soon as she opened her mouth, she heard a rustling sound from below.
“Any grievances can be raised and resolved on the spot.”
Being so calm and composed actually made people afraid to act rashly. The crowd fell silent again for a moment. It was unclear what everyone was thinking, but it was in this silence that Wandi took her first step towards reform.
After the general meeting, the judicial and legislative branches stayed behind for a further meeting. Wandi presented the new code. "The previous law has a long history, and many provisions no longer meet current needs. From now on, everything will be based on the new law."
"What if...what if someone disagrees?"
"Convicted according to the law." Wan Di uttered these words calmly.
Several people nodded hurriedly and left with the new code.
"There was no movement for the past few days, and I thought he was a pushover. Who knew he would do this today?"
"Who said it wasn't? But why are you so cowardly? That person didn't do anything, yet you're stuttering. Didn't you just slam the table in front of the president before?"
"Tsk, what do you know? Knowing yourself and your enemy ensures victory in every battle. I was just observing first and then deciding on my strategy. What's wrong with slamming the table? There are etiquette for slamming the table too. Do you think I just slammed it casually?"
"Okay, okay, whatever you want, but the president's eyes look fierce and fierce, as if he can eat someone at any time."
"What? I can't see clearly from far away."
The two walked away, complaining all the way. Watching the two small dots gradually disappear, Wandi just sneered.
If she had known that change wouldn't be easy, she wouldn't have cared if it didn't matter.
I went out with the intention of taking a walk and checking in on the people. I found Jiang Zouwei and the others and was about to leave when I heard sobbing outside. I could also vaguely hear other people saying words like "It's okay," "Damn it," and "Ah," as if to comfort them.
Everyone's conversation had stopped. Ji Wenxue was sitting by the door. After receiving Wandi's instructions, she quickly opened the door and saw a person sitting on the ground crying outside, surrounded by many people.
"What's going on?"
For some reason, the group of people were all scared away at once, leaving only one person sitting on the ground with tears on his face. Ji Wenxue and Yao Si each helped the person up and brought him back to the lounge, put him on the sofa and poured him a glass of water.
"Auntie, what happened that makes you cry so sadly?" Ji Wenxue asked as she handed over the cup of water.
The old lady's chest was still heaving violently from crying, and she had difficulty speaking. She drank a sip of water before slowly telling the story.
"The higher-ups... they recently approved a project to build an underground tunnel, which was supposed to be completed in the next few days. But then, unexpectedly, they were suddenly reported today for using materials that looked like coffins for the entrance and exit doors. They accused us of ulterior motives. After being screened one by one, the leaders who approved the project were spared. Instead, we, the workers who toiled day and night for six months, are not getting paid for the unfinished project. We're also held responsible and have to pay three million yuan in compensation, or else we have to report to the director..." The old lady couldn't help but burst into tears when she said this. "I was thinking of making money to make my daughter's life easier, but who could have imagined something like this would happen? It doesn't matter to me, an old man, but my child is still so young. How can she survive with such a huge loan?"
Although the old lady spoke a little haltingly, her articulation was clear and her descriptions were accurate, so everyone quickly understood the whole story.
"This is too much. What kind of leader is this? He doesn't dare to take responsibility for his own mistakes and instead pushes the blame onto the workers?" Yao Si was so angry that his eyebrows stood up.
Ji Wenxue also frowned. How could there be such a shameless person who not only asked for compensation but also threatened to put someone in jail?
"Which group?" Jiang Zouwei asked with his arms folded.
The old lady wiped her tears, drank some water, and told the story. She had cried for so long before. Now her emotions had calmed down a little. "Ping An Group."
"Ping An Group?" Ji Wenxue muttered to herself as she typed the words into the search engine. She glanced over the words, "It's a large company, and they've partnered with the government." As she spoke, her fingers moved as if she were still searching for something.
"Right, right," the old lady sighed. It was precisely because the group was so large that the people below them were extremely dissatisfied. They cried and made a scene, and were thrown out with their bedding. "A few days ago, we went to court to sue, but the higher-ups were all in cahoots, and they just gave us a few words and kicked us out."
"This is not the first time that the company has done this. According to the information I found, a similar incident happened three years ago." Ji Wenxue summarized as she looked at the pile of text in front of her.
"This is outrageous! This is too heartless!" Yao Si became more and more angry as he listened, and he looked like he was about to burst into flames. "Don't worry, Auntie. We are here and we will definitely give you an explanation."
"Wenxue, check the social relations of the company's senior management." Wan Di said to Ji Wenxue, and an idea slowly emerged in her mind.
The old lady looked from one to the other, her heart calm after venting. "Good children, but you better stay out of this. Don't let it get you into trouble. I'll think of a solution. If it doesn't work, I'll just..."
"Auntie, please don't say that. We work for the government, and this is our job." Wandi handed the old lady a tissue and said, "By the way, what's your name? When did you join this group? How is the group... I hope you can share these with us in more detail."
Wan Di spoke with conviction, and the old lady nodded as she took the tissue. "My name is Lu Xuanzhou. I joined Ping An Group ten years ago. I started as a laborer building roads and bridges. Over the years, I've slowly risen through the ranks and now have about ten people under me. We're considered a small team. This construction project was carried out by several small teams, and we were all pushed out. Because I disagreed, they accused me of causing trouble, and the other small teams were incited to defect. As a result, all the blame has now fallen on our team."
"Sister Wanti, I found out that the boss of this company has a close relationship with the masked man No. 9." Ji Wenxue said, and when she saw Wanti nodded, she waved her hand and took the screen away.
Based on the existing information, Wandi already has an idea.
"Zouwei, take my aunt to sue me again."
