Seeing that Jinshan and Feng Yanzhou were puzzled, he pondered and touched the fuse.
"As you can see, the wire is well hidden and concealed. Besides the wire, there is no other source of ignition nearby. So... the person who planted the explosives must have also arranged for someone to sneak in and ignite the wire."
"They're either from the oil mill or people who came to join in the fun at the opening. Of course, I absolutely believe that no one from our oil mill would betray us, so it can only be the latter."
Chen Sisi wasn't blindly confident; she simply had a deep understanding of human nature.
Nowadays, the workers in the oil mill are all shareholders. Everyone is waiting to make a living from this job and to receive dividends from the oil mill every year. There is absolutely no way they would risk their own livelihood.
Therefore, it can only be an outsider.
"There are many guests today, as well as some neighbors who just wanted to join in the fun. It's inevitable that some people might slip in unnoticed. And with such a long fuse, once lit, that person will definitely have enough time to escape. The explosion will only occur after they leave!"
While she was calmly and rationally analyzing the situation, the anger in her heart had actually reached the point where it would erupt like a volcano.
What grudge could they possibly hold against them that they would want to kill them?!
After hearing her analysis, everyone broke out in a cold sweat.
Jinshan, in particular, was trembling with his fingers.
Fortunately, Chen Sisi was very attentive today, so I had him come and check carefully, and I also reminded him to check the beams and pillars; otherwise, it would have been a disaster.
Gu Chengfeng also felt a wave of fear, and his expression gradually turned fierce.
“I know you’re trying to lure the snake out of its hole, but it’s not safe to leave the explosives here.” After saying that, Gu Chengfeng took out the knife he was carrying and cut the fuse with a light cut. Then he took the explosives out and put a package of pastries wrapped in kraft paper in the place where the bomb had been.
Chen Sisi gave a thumbs up: "You're so thoughtful."
Gu Chengfeng carefully wrapped the packet of explosives in oil paper and handed it to Feng Yanzhou, indicating that he should take it away for investigation.
Feng Yanzhou knowingly put it into his pocket.
Then Gu Chengfeng had Jinshan help him replace all the oil with water.
After everything was set up, the group checked the new workshop again to make sure there were no problems. Then Gu Chengfeng instructed Feng Yanzhou and Jin Shan: "You two stay here and keep watch to see who will light the fire."
They both nodded at the same time.
Just then, Old Li rushed in, sweating profusely: "Boss Shen, come with me to the warehouse right away, something's happened!"
Chen Sisi's heart skipped a beat, and she strode towards the warehouse. The oil drums on the shelves had all been opened, and next to the nearest large oil drum lay a dead rat spitting out black blood!
"I was still worried, so I came back here to check again, and I found a dead rat in a hidden corner. This rat must have stolen some oil that we accidentally spilled, and then it vomited black blood and died."
"I noticed something was wrong with the rat; it looked like it was poisoned. So I opened the oil drum to take a sniff, and... I found that the oil in the drum had a very strange smell."
Old Li wasn't convinced, so he took out the silver ring his wife had given him, poured some oil into it, and tested it. The silver turned black immediately!
Seeing this, Old Li was terrified. He quickly opened each oil drum, only to find that each one had a strange smell.
Then, in the corner, next to an oil drum, stood a large filter net. Inside the net were some unmelted white granules, like rock candy, but definitely not rock candy.
When Shen Sisi saw this, her legs went weak with fear.
A rat that eats it will immediately vomit blood and die, let alone a human.
If this hadn't been discovered, and the oil in the drums had been sold or given away, wouldn't hundreds of people have died from poisoning?
"How vicious!" Shen Sisi gritted her teeth and quickly ordered Old Li to call a few workers to seal up all the oil, which would then be handed over to the public security authorities for inspection and centralized processing.
"Is the old oil mill alright?" Chen Sisi asked.
Old Li said, "It's alright, I've already checked everything over there."
Looking at this shocking scene, Feng Yanzhou murmured, "You were right, that Cheng Biao can't make choices, he wants it all!"
Based on his understanding of Cheng Biao, Cheng Biao couldn't possibly come up with such a meticulous plan.
The only possibility is... that mastermind behind it all.
“Right now, we can only wait and see. On the surface, everything is the same as usual, and we are open for business as usual,” Shen Sisi said with a somber face.
"Old Li, send a few men to guard this warehouse. Under no circumstances should anyone be allowed in, and we must not let the drugged oil leak out."
"Fine!" Old Li was so angry he gritted his teeth. If he found out who was behind this, he would beat them to death!
When the auspicious time arrived, Wen Rong, Cao Hua, and others gradually arrived.
Wen Rong truly lives up to his reputation as a wealthy young man from Hong Kong; he's incredibly generous, buying over a dozen flower baskets and filling the entire alley.
Cao Hua and Dong Xiaojiang didn't buy flower baskets; instead, they sent two money trees taller than a person, along with a large order for medicinal oil.
Xu Hongying and Gu Changhe also brought their families. Niu Niu was led by the elderly couple, one on each side, wearing an adorable little Tang suit, bouncing around like a porcelain doll.
Besides them, Li Wenhui and Zhang Xiuhong from the compound also came, as well as Yang Qiuxia who came uninvited. Each of them brought some auspicious gifts.
Hei Zi traveled a long way from Linxian County, carrying a lucky cat statue in his arms, which was quite amusing.
Also present were the eldest sister, Xu Jinhua, her daughter, Wu Xiaofang, and Wu Xiaofang's boss.
Even Wang Xiaodao, whom I've only met a few times, came to join in the fun.
