On the way to the airport, it suddenly rained heavily, the weather was gloomy, and the dark clouds were low, as if something bad was about to happen.
This caused Zhong Youyou to hear the news of the flight delay when she arrived at the airport. She and Xiao Zhao had to stay in a nearby hotel for one night and return to City Z the next day.
This night, Zhong Youyou called Qin Yao with a heavy heart. Although she didn't say clearly on the phone, she basically understood the current situation.
She did not expect that such a big change would happen to the Zhong family during the few days when she participated in the competition.
The current situation is that the Zhong family has invested more than one billion yuan in Taijin Old Road, planning to demolish and build new buildings, but just after the demolition was completed and everything was going well, an accident happened among the workers, seriously injuring two people. This incident happened suddenly, like a fuse, which ignited everything at once.
At first, it was the family members of the two seriously injured workers who argued for compensation.
These two workers are still Zhong's old workers. A man named Wu Dajiang, in his fifties, was beaten to the ground by a weak concrete slab that fell from the sky. He is still in a coma, and he is afraid that he will become a vegetable. The other Li Hai was slightly injured, but both of his legs were comminuted and fractured. After being sent to the hospital, his limbs were amputated. He didn't know if he could stand up in the future.
This kind of large project of thousands of acres is inherently high-risk, and accidents, large or small, will happen every few years.
In the past, it could be done privately by simply taking the money. After all, the workers had already signed the contract, and if something happened on their own, they could not be blamed on Zhong.
But this time, things turned into a hornet's nest.
For some reason, these two people did not sign a risky contract for this project! I found the person in charge of Xiaobaotou at that time, but found that he had already fled abroad. This shows that it was designed from the very beginning, and someone knew that this project belonged to Zhong's, so they specially deployed it early and put people in it.
If the risk contract was not signed and the workers were injured, Chung would have to bear 80% of the responsibility.
And more than that, these people seem to deliberately make things big just because they know this. Headed by the family members of Wu Dajiang and Li Hai, after receiving the first payment of compensation, they continued to open their mouths, but Zhong did not agree. Dozens of them raised street signs and marched in dissatisfaction on Taijin Old Road, causing two nearby blocks to be blocked. It was blocked, and the cars passing by had their lights smashed, and there was a lot of noise.
Things got serious, and Zhong's stock plummeted in the past few days.
At the same time, the project was forced to stop and sent for quality inspection, and if the entire project was delayed for one more day, it would cost millions of dollars.
It was obvious that someone wanted to punish Zhong's behind his back.
Father Zhong guessed who it was, but there was nothing he could do except to transfer funds to make up for loopholes and let lawyers suppress those troublemakers. Also because of the lack of risk contracts, it is very unfavorable to Zhong.
He sent people to look for those worker representatives several times, but all of them returned without success. This group of people didn't want to solve the problem at all, but only wanted to mess around, trying to bring down Zhong.
Wu Dajiang, Li Hai and their family members were all bitten to death. They insisted that it was a problem with the project, and they cried and cried, and their emotions were extremely unstable. At that time, there were no witnesses at the scene, and it is not known whether it was really because of the cement slabs of the bean curd project that the cement board fell down, or the two workers' own negligence.
The family members of these two people incited other workers, causing the fire to grow stronger.
These workers themselves work very hard, earn hard-earned money, have little education and experience, and some of them have a hatred of the rich. Can they not be incited? And there is also a high possibility that someone is mixing the water inside and deliberately releasing inflammatory remarks. So the whole thing intensified. From five days ago to today, Zhong's stock has fallen to the limit.
Father Zhong was extremely busy.
The strangest thing he found was that since Zhong started the project on Taijin Old Road, he had never publicized it to the outside world, and no company outside knew about it. Seeing the renovation here, they all thought it was a government project.
It has been well concealed all the time, making all competitors think that their focus is on the construction site of the golf course. Why did someone suddenly know the inside information? It is precisely because of knowing the internal information that the other party is given the opportunity to take advantage of it and deploy it in advance.
Father Zhong couldn't figure it out for a while, he just thought that there was a traitor in his company, and he had a gloomy face in the company for the past two days, which made the entire Zhong family panic.
"I wanted to wait until you came back, but I didn't expect Xiao Zhao to be clumsy." Qin Yao sighed, and said, "With such a big funding gap, your father probably has nowhere to go. He came to me yesterday."
It was still raining, Zhong Youyou had to stay in the hotel, wiped his hair after taking a shower, and after listening to what Qin Yao said, he didn't say a word for a while.
After a while she asked, "Qin Yao, did you agree to help?"
"Not yet, I'm still thinking about it." Qin Yao said: "I can help with funds, no problem, but even if it is made up, there is still no way to solve the problem of public opinion. Shareholders listen to the wind and it rains. The other side of the road was almost blocked, which caused a lot of panic, which caused Zhong's stock to plummet within a few days. Zhong's has already launched a development conference, but the seriously injured workers will not let go. If they can't be found as soon as possible Thief shouting catch thief, the evidence of being bribed, I am afraid that if you help your father this favor, the money sent out will be in vain, and it only solves the urgent need, and the Zhong's property should shrink or shrink."
This dog is quite handsome when he analyzes the pros and cons, but he is so inhumane, is this how he treats his father-in-law? Zhong Youyou said quietly: "From this point of view, wouldn't it be of no benefit to you to help, why are you still hesitating?"
Qin Yao's voice suddenly became a little depressed: "If I don't help, uncle will definitely turn to the Shi family for help, and I inquired about Mr. Shi's side. His request is for you to make a marriage contract with Shi Zhitang."
Zhong Youyou: "... Mr. Shi is taking advantage of the fire! If you tell me to marry Shi Zhitang, I will marry you? It's a joke, it doesn't matter what age it is!"
Qin Yao suddenly sneered: "Shi Zhitang also agrees with this matter, it seems that he really wants to make an engagement with you."
"..." Zhong Youyou felt guilty for a moment: "But I don't want to!"
Qin Yao: "Hehe."
But after all, Zhong Youyou's resolute refusal warmed her heart.
Qin Yao was already brooding about the fact that Zhong Youyou once liked Shi Zhitang, so he naturally didn't want the Zhong family and the Shi family to get involved in any continual relationship, so if Father Zhong really had nowhere to go, he would probably be the one to do it. Give this hand.
Zhong Youyou also knew in her heart that she wanted to laugh a little, but it was an atmosphere of discussing serious business at this time, so it was obviously not suitable for laughing. She said, "it's up to you. If you want to help, don't think about me."
"Why don't you consider you? You are my future wife. Isn't it justified to help my wife's natal family?" Qin Yao said confidently, his voice sounded unconvincing. In fact, the other end of the phone squeezed the phone hard and mentioned " The word "wife" made his ears turn red.
Feeling that what he said just now lacked confidence, he repeated it in a straight voice: "wife."
Zhong Youyou didn't notice Qin Yao's careful thoughts, she was in a complicated mood at the moment...
On the one hand, Yu Li, she has the right to inherit the Zhong family. If the Zhong family is hit hard, not to mention whether she wants those shares, but only if she wants them, then what she inherits will definitely shrink. What does that do to her? What about the benefits
On the other hand, Yu Qing, even if she doesn't want to get involved with the Zhong family, she won't turn her elbows outward at this time. She doesn't have that much hatred with the Zhong family, and she doesn't want to watch the Zhong family fall. I don't even want to watch Zhong's father lose his head because of this matter, the Zhong family goes bankrupt, and Zhong Xiyou turns from a carefree young master into a down-and-out rich second generation.
In other words, if the Zhong family owed the original owner, even if they wanted to take revenge, it would be done by themselves, not by a mere Shen family.
So she must help the Zhong family.
It's just this favor, how can I help
Thinking of this, Zhong Youyou calmed down and said, "Qin Yao, you can decide the funding issue, I won't interfere."
"I'll take the earliest flight back tomorrow as soon as possible."
Although Zhong Youyou didn't want to interfere with Qin Yao's decision-making, Qin Yao was as familiar with her as he was with himself, and couldn't tell what she was thinking at this moment.
Qin Yao paused and said, "Okay, go to bed early."
When Zhong Youyou listened to Qin Yao's statement of the situation on the phone, he didn't expect it to be so serious and terrifying.
When she and Xiao Zhao came out from the airport and drove back to the apartment, they happened to pass the block on the other side of Taijin Old Road.
Before I got there, I saw that the front was blocked, and it became a long dragon. From a distance, I could see a group of migrant workers in worker uniforms on the old Taijin Road holding things in their hands, and their wives, children, and parents were holding The long strip of blood characters blocked the street completely.
There is also a group of people who lost everything because of the dehydration of Zhong's stocks in this incident, and they all sat on both sides of the street with tears streaming down their faces and crying.
A lot of police were sent to mediate, but it was of no use at all, and the pushing and shoving only made things more troublesome. Crying, cursing, and questioning voices continued, making the whole street extremely chaotic.
Afraid of something happening, Zhong Youyou said, "Don't go this way, go around."
"Okay." Looking at this posture, Xiao Zhao was also sweating profusely in panic, and didn't dare to talk to Zhong Youyou.
He didn't know the situation of Zhong Youyou's family, and thought that Zhong Youyou must be very anxious about such a big matter, so he stepped on the gas pedal and wanted to drive Zhong Youyou home quickly.
He purposely took another route.
But he never expected that there were a few people guarding there, as if they were waiting on purpose.
As soon as the car turned the corner, someone ran over and shouted among the workers: "Everyone, go to Yumin Road, Zhong Guoqiang's precious daughter has appeared!"
The sound was like a landmine hitting the flat ground, and all the angry workers were blown away with a bang. Immediately, a group of people ran over and surrounded them.
Not only did he push the passers-by aside, but he also blocked Zhong Youyou's car and prevented the car from continuing to drive forward.
Among them was a very dark young worker with a stick in his hand. He slammed on Xiao Zhao's car, and the headlights instantly shattered.
Xiao Zhao hurriedly braked to cover his head, and yelled out: "Oh my god, are you crazy?!"
Zhong Youyou stared at the face of the man outside.
When she came from the airport, she only took these two roads. If she didn't take the old Taijin road, she would go this way. Who just knew that they came back from the airport today? She suspected that Meng Shixuan had something to do with this matter, but she couldn't fully confirm it at this time.
She calmed down quickly and went out without lowering the window.
"Keep driving." Zhong Youyou said, she took off the coat from her body, wrapped it around her head, got into the back seat of the car and squatted down, just so that no one outside could see her, and said to Xiao Zhao: "Turn back and ask Qin Yao for reimbursement. Don't worry about them. The car will drive forward slowly, as long as you don't run over anyone. I don't believe that these people are really not afraid of death."
"Okay." Xiao Zhao saw that the little proprietress, a girl, was more courageous than himself, so he finally regained his composure, re-ignited the fire, and drove forward slowly.
But he didn't move half an inch forward, and it was the man just now, who seemed to be making trouble on purpose, and deliberately pushed her to the front of the car, shouting: "Don't let her go! If Zhong Guoqiang doesn't come out and give us an explanation, he won't let her go!" His daughter go!"
Xiao Zhao had never seen such a big scene before, he shivered from being yelled at, and now the fire was completely turned off.
The car was surrounded by groups, as if trapped in a jail, unable to move half a step.
…
Zhong Youyou and Xiao Zhao were trapped in the car, but outside were a group of family members of work-related injury victims and people who had lost everything because they bought Zhong's stocks. Swallowed alive. Who did they end up in this way, and not because of Zhong Guoqiang
"Losing money! Let your father lose money!" Someone accused hoarsely: "If it weren't for your father, would we have lost everything?!"
The so-called bankruptcy may mean hundreds of thousands of dollars to buy a bag for the Zhong family, but for this person it is the hard-earned money that has been saved for many years.
"It's not just losing money, but also our old Wu, who is still awake, losing his life!" The woman screamed.
As soon as this person provoked, the people around stared at Zhong Youyou in the car, their eyes bleeding with hatred.
Zhong Youyou was still calm, the screen of the silent phone in her hand kept vibrating, it was Qin Yao calling, but she didn't answer. It was useless for Qin Yao to come here at this moment, the crowd couldn't squeeze through three floors outside, and she was also afraid of Qin Yao's injury.
Xiao Zhao was so scared that he buried his head and didn't dare to open the window at all: "What should I do? Call President Qin?"
"Why did you ask Qin Yao to come over, call the police directly." Zhong Youyou pressed 110, briefly explained the situation, and then called the lawyer Qin Yao helped him find last time, and asked him to get ready to contact the hospital for an injury examination.
If this group of people have done something to themselves here, they can get an injury directly, and things may be reversed.
Xiao Zhao wanted to cry but had no tears: "It's too late, who knows if this group of people will smash the car windows?"
Zhong Youyou said: "It just happened to be smashed, and the trouble is so big, I have to go to the bureau to squat for a few days."
Xiao Zhao: "Huh?"
Zhong Youyou raised his head and stared at the group of people outside.
In the midst of the stalemate, suddenly, in the distance, a black car squeezed aggressively from the crowd.
Someone scolded: "Don't die?!" But the car still didn't slow down.
It's Qin Yao.
His car, Zhong Youyou, is all too familiar! Zhong Youyou was apprehensive immediately, looked up, and was squeezed so recklessly by Qin Yao, the crowd immediately rioted, these people were already desperate, but the people who drove here were even more desperate than them, and they bumped into them directly.
Suddenly, the crowd screamed in fright and dispersed one after another.
Only then did Qin Yao's car rush out of the chaotic crowd.
In broad daylight, he came out with a livid face, opened the car door, covered Zhong Youyou's face with his coat, and directly brought her into his car.
The action is done in one go.
Zhong Youyou was stuffed into the car, Qin Yao glanced at her up and down to confirm that she was fine: "Why didn't you answer the phone? I almost don't know where you are!"
Before Zhong Youyou had time to speak, the group of people became even crazier, and the leader was the dark-skinned young worker just now, who surrounded him aggressively! Things have developed to this point, if there is no instigation or instigation behind it, no one will believe it!
This time Zhong's opponent has spent all his money.
Zhong Youyou guessed who was going to deal with the Zhong family as early as last night. In the original text, Shen Chi also shot at the Zhong family again and again, but he never made such a fuss because he was incapable. This time, he must have Zhong's inner ghost to help him.
Isn't Shen Chi afraid that if he didn't kill Zhong this time, he would send himself to prison instead
Zhong Youyou looked at Qin Yao, and sighed: "Originally, Xiao Zhao and I were the only ones who couldn't leave, but now it's all right, and you can't either."
Qin Yao tightly squeezed her hand, and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a car horn honking over there.
The movement was so loud that the crowd surrounding them all looked over there.
Then, someone shouted excitedly and madly: "Zhong Guoqiang's son has also come out! It's over there!"
"Let's surround him! A son must be more precious than a half-way daughter!"
Zhong Xiyou
Both Zhong Youyou and Qin Yao froze for a moment, then turned their heads to look over there.
Like a prairie fire receding suddenly, this group of crazy people turned and ran towards a car on the road behind.
After they dispersed like this, Zhong Youyou was able to see clearly that on the street over there, that kid Zhong Xiyou actually drove out with Jinming in a car, and even drove the convertible swaggeringly, the music was loud, and he was afraid Others do not find him.
Zhong Xiyou was looking at him, and after confirming that the crowd had been diverted by him, Jin Ming Bang stepped on the gas pedal and whistled, and the two children's cars suddenly rushed out in opposite directions.
