"Is this what you said can delay it for ten days? Can it be delayed by a parade? You might as well kill me and drag it with my head!"
Lao Yu's roar of collapse reached Shen Jin's ears along the phone line.
Shen Jin waited until he had yelled enough before replying slowly: "Just tell me if you can delay it for ten days."
Lao Yu: "...!"
More than ten days!
If this matter is not handled well, it could last for half a month.
Lao Yu took a few breaths, gritted his teeth and asked in a low voice: "How do you plan to end this trouble?"
Shen Jin: "It's not the Shen family that the masses are protesting, so what will happen to us?"
"..."
"If I call you again, I will go to your Shen family to look after the nursing home!"
Lao Yu broke the phone.
Shen Jin put down the phone receiver calmly and continued to read the account book without any emotion.
…
The parade is getting bigger and bigger.
The more people gather, the more news there is, and it spreads faster than ever...and increasingly outrageous.
"Gem Company wants to use us to bring down the Shen family!"
"The gringos want to use me to bring down the docks?"
"Gui guys want to dominate Xiangjiang? How dare the Yan family think..."
"..."
"The dock in Gemu will pollute the environment when it is built!"
"They want to build a secret base at the dock!"
"They want to bomb the port?"
"..."
"Sister, I heard that little girl is planning to set up a station at the pier."
Lin Nianhe: "...?"
"How many dishes did it take to drink her like this?"
After Lin Nianhe heard the news, he was really confused for a while.
But she soon realized what was happening and asked Zhou Laosi to trace the source and find the original version of the rumor.
Three hours later, after asking dozens of people, Zhou Laosi’s younger brother finally came back with the original version of the news:
"Oh, the rumor has changed. It's the one we spread about 'Two factions are fighting within Gemu.'"
Lin Nianhe: "..."
fortunately.
If Zhou Laosi came back ten minutes later, her complaint call would have been made to Lin's father's office.
Lin Nianhe let go of the phone receiver, poured a glass of water for Zhou Laosi, pushed the snack to him, and then asked: "Is there any news from the outside? Uh... I mean, it's not news from their mouths. "
Zhou Laosi took a sip of water and nodded with a serious expression: "Yes, the person surnamed Ai sent the sitter to us."
"Oh?" Lin Nianhe smiled with interest, "This is a good card. How can a traitor like Eric be so loyal?"
"He said that little bitch didn't want to see blood in Hong Kong, so he wanted to use the law to try this commercial espionage."
No one wished more than Eric that Thomas would shut up forever.
But he couldn't do it himself - if Thomas died in Eric's hands, the game of who was the mole would be over in advance.
Lin Nianhe sneered: "Forget it, I understand Nishi just like Captain Uncle understands farmyard manure... Does she not want to see blood? She doesn't dare to kill him."
Given Nishi's current situation, if she dared to touch Thomas openly, she would not be able to reap the consequences.
Zhou Laosi looked at the half-bitten snack in his hand, put it down, and said, "Then how do you plan to play this card? I can help you judge, but I can't understand his jabbering."
"We don't have to worry, just give him to Uncle Shen."
"OK."
Lao Yu soon received the "gift" given to him by Shen Jin.
Looking at Thomas' old face filled with grief and anger, Lao Yu wanted to die together with Shen Jin.
Before they both died together, he wanted to ask Shen Jin - wouldn't his conscience hurt if he put all the pressure on himself?
Shen Jin's conscience obviously won't hurt, maybe he doesn't have that kind of thing.
Because he not only gave Lao Yu a breakthrough, but also specially approved 500,000 yuan for the wives of the Shen family, specifically to take care of the "construction workers" who had a reasonable demonstration.
There were people taking care of the food during the riots, which greatly maintained the number of people gathered.
What's more, after hearing that free meals were provided here, they even dragged their entire family over here.
They don't care why they gather here, they just want a free meal.
The calls from the ICAC kept coming, but Lao Yu still didn't answer the call, and he only tried his best to dig up evidence of the crime.
Two days later, the leader's car drove into the gate of the ICAC.
This time Lao Yu had to come out and deal with it.
"Boss, I don't know what's going on outside," Lao Yu said, "I'm still busy investigating the case of Mark not closing the curtains."
The leader looked livid: "What did you find out?"
Lao Yu said vaguely: "Mark accepted Gemu's benefits."
"You still need to investigate this? Aren't you the ones arrested in Gemu Company?" The leader laughed angrily, "Say it's useful!"
Lao Yu: "Isn't this useless?"
The leader was so choked that he almost fainted.
He gritted his teeth, pulled Lao Yu by the collar and walked to the window, lifted his head and looked out: "Look outside for yourself! Parade, sit-in! Will the Gemu and Shen family still have a falling out in Xiangjiang?" ?"
At this moment, Lao Yu finally realized Shen Jin's pleasure and pretended to be confused, "Then I'll go check on the Shen family?"
"Don't pretend to me! Don't you know what to do?"
"I do not know."
"..."
In the evening news of that day, the ICAC produced evidence of the crime of Gram's bribery of Mark, and incredibly quickly gave out the method of dealing with Mark and others as well as Gram's company.
Mark and others will either be sent back to the country for review, or they will be dismissed, fined, and imprisoned.
Gemu Company's license was revoked, and the land near the office building and dock that it had originally acquired at a large price was seized and recovered.
What awaits Nishi and others is repatriation at a scheduled date.
"Ms. Lin, Nishi wants to see you."
Ah Sheng came to Lin Nianhe and whispered, "I just need to trouble you to go to the hotel."
"Okay." Lin Nianhe smiled and nodded, "It just so happens that I also want to see her."
Although Nishi was defeated, the deterrent power of Gemu Company was still there, and no one made it too difficult for her. They still let her stay in the hotel room, but there were more police officers guarding her.
Nishi was drinking coffee as usual, her face not showing signs of depression.
"You won the bet, and they want you to live even more." Nishi looked at Lin Nianhe, "But I still can't understand, why? Is it important for you to live?"
Lin Nianhe gently shook his finger: "You are wrong. My bet was never that they wanted me to live. My bet was -"
"They want you dead."
Nishi looked at Lin Nianhe in astonishment: "What did you say?"
"There is an old saying in China: rice rises and kindness fights rice and hatred."
Lin Nianhe smiled lightly and said slowly:
"If you give them ten dollars a day but don't have to work, they will appreciate that you are a good person; but if you give them a hundred dollars a day and let them live a better life without having to work than working hard, once you don't want to give them Yes, you are their enemy."
"The marches and protests are the people expressing their dissatisfaction with you; the reason why some people are anxious to sentence you is because they want to use the simplest and most trouble-free means to calm down the incident."
"I never bet on the goodness of human nature, I prefer to believe in the dangers of the world."
"Whether I can live or not is not important at all, but letting you die is very important."
