Chapter 66 (Part 1)

On the way to the airport, there was a sudden downpour. The weather was gloomy, and the dark clouds were very low as if something bad was about to come.

As a result, when Zhong Youyou arrived at the airport, she heard the news that the flight was delayed. She and Xiao Zhao had to stay in a nearby hotel for one night and then return to Z City the next day.

That night, Zhong Youyou called Qin Yao to find out the situation. Although she was not clear on the phone, she also basically understood the current situation.

She didn't expect that such a big change happened to the Zhong family in the past few days when she participated in the competition.

The current situation is that the Zhong family invested more than one billion yuan on Old Taijin Road and planned to carry out demolition and relocation, but just after the demolition and relocation were completed, when everything went smoothly, there was an accident among the workers, and two people were seriously injured and disabled. This incident happened suddenly, like a fuse, igniting everything at once.

In the beginning, it was the families of the two seriously injured workers who made a commotion and got compensation.

These two workers are still Zhong's veteran workers. Wu Dajiang, in his fifties, was beaten to bloodshed by cement slabs falling from the sky. He has been unconscious and is afraid that he will become a vegetative person. The other, Li Hai, was slightly injured, but also suffered a comminated fracture of both legs. He was sent to the hospital and was amputated. I don't know if he can stand up in the future.

This kind of large-scale project of several thousand acres is inherently high-risk, and accidents, large or small, occur every few years.

In the past, it was possible to get private money directly. After all, the workers had already signed the contract and had an accident on their own.

But this time, the matter was stabbed into a hornet's nest.

These two people did not sign a risk contract for this project for some reason! They found the person in charge of Xiao Baotou at the time but found that he had already gone abroad. This shows that it was designed from the very beginning, and someone knew that this project was Zhong's for a long time, and it was specially deployed early, and people were inserted into it.

Without signing a risk contract, Zhong will bear 80% of the liability if the worker is injured.

And more than that, these people seem to be deliberately making things happen just because they know this. The family members of Wu Dajiang and Li Hai, led by them, continued to speak loudly after receiving the first compensation. Zhong did not agree, and dozens of them provoked street signs and marched on Old Taijin Road. It was jammed, and there were cars with smashed lights in the past, and it was mayhem.

Things have become a big deal, and Zhong's stock has plummeted in the past few days.

At the same time, the project was also forced to stop and sent for quality inspection, and the entire project was delayed by one day, which was a loss of millions.

This clearly means someone is going to be behind him all the time.

Father Zhong guessed who it was, but he was helpless except to transfer funds to fill the loopholes and let the lawyers suppress the troubled workers. It is also very detrimental to Zhong's because of the lack of risk contracts.

He sent people to find the workers' representatives several times, but they all returned to no avail. This group of people didn't want to solve the problem at all.

Wu Dajiang and Li Hai and their family members were all bitten to death. They insisted that it was an engineering problem. There were no witnesses present at the time, and it is not known whether the cement slabs of the tofu dregs project were actually smashed down, or whether the two workers had their own omissions.

The families of these two people incited other workers, causing the fire to become more and more prosperous.

These workers themselves work very hard, earn hard-earned money, have little reading and knowledge, and some have a hatred of the rich. Can they not be instigated? It is also very likely that someone will mix up the water in it and deliberately release inflammatory remarks. So, the whole thing got worse as time passed. Starting from five days ago, to today, Zhong's stock has reached a lower limit.

Father Zhong was so busy that it was a mess.

The strangest thing to him is that since Zhong started the project on Old Taijin Road, he has never publicized it, and no company outside knows about it. Seeing the renovation here, he thought it was a government project.

I've always kept the secret so that all competitors think that their focus is on the construction site of the golf course. How come someone suddenly knows the inside information? It is precisely because of the internal news that the other party has the opportunity to deploy in advance.

Father Zhong couldn't figure it out for a while, only thinking that a traitor had emerged from within his company, and his face was somber in the company for the past two days, making the entire Zhong family all in vain.

"I wanted to wait for you to come back, but I didn't expect Xiao Zhao to be clumsy." Qin Yao sighed and said: "With such a big funding gap, your father is probably desperate. He called me yesterday."

It was still raining, Zhong Youyou had to stay in the hotel, wiping her hair after taking a shower, and after hearing what Qin Yao said, she didn't say a word.

After a while, she asked, "Qin Yao, have you promised to help?"

"Not yet I'm still thinking about it." Qin Yao said: "I can help with funding, 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 but rain. During this time, Old Taijin road was almost sealed up, causing a lot of panic, which led to Zhong's stock plummeting within a few days. Zhong's had already developed a conference, but the seriously injured workers would be reluctant. If they can't be found as soon as possible, the thief shouts to catch the thief and was bought as evidence, the money sent out would also be a waste of money. It only solved a temporary emergency. The Zhong's industry should shrink and fall."

This man is quite shrewd after analyzing the pros and cons, but he is unkind and treats the old man like this. Zhong Youyou said quietly: "Looking at it this way, wouldn't it be of no benefit to you to help? Why are you still thinking about hesitating?"

Qin Yao's voice suddenly became a little depressed: "If I don't help out, my uncle will definitely turn to Shi's family for help, but I inquired about the old man Shi, and his request is for you to make a marriage contract with Shi Zhitang."

Zhong Youyou: "...Master Shi is taking advantage of the fire! Should I marry Shi Zhitang? A joke!"

Qin Yao suddenly sneered: "Shi Zhitang also agrees with this matter. It seems that he wants to be engaged with you."

"..." Zhong Youyou felt guilty: "But I don't want to!"

Qin Yao: "Ha-ha."

But his heart was warmed by Zhong Youyou's resolute refusal.

Qin Yao was always worried about Zhong Youyou's liking for her old crush. Naturally, he didn't want the Zhong family and the Shi family to be involved in a constant relationship, so if Zhong's father is really desperate by then, it is estimated that he will come.

Zhong Youyou knew in her heart that he wanted to laugh a little, but at this time it was an atmosphere of business affairs, which was obviously not suitable for laughter. She said in a convenient way: "This matter depends on you, you can help if you want, don't think about me."

"Why don't I think about you? You are my future wife. Isn't it righteous to help my wife's natal family?" Qin Yao said frankly, his voice sounded uncomfortable, in fact, he squeezed the phone hard on the other end of the phone, and when mentioning the word "wife" made his ears red.

Feeling the lack of confidence in what he said just now, he repeated it eloquently: "Wife."

Zhong Youyou didn't notice Qin Yao's careful thoughts, she felt a little complicated right now.

On the one hand, she has the right to inherit the Zhong clan. If the Zhong clan is severely injured, and not to mention those shares, she does not want it, but only if she wants it, then what she inherited will definitely shrink. What will it do for her? What are the benefits?

On the other hand, even if she didn't want to get involved with the Zhong family, she wouldn't turn her elbow outward at this time. She and Zhong didn't have that much hatred, and she didn't want to watch the Zhong family fall. Don't even want to watch Zhong's father give up on this matter, Zhong's family goes bankrupt, and Zhong Xiyou will change from a carefree wealthy young master to a simple poor boy.

In other words, even if the Zhong family owes the original owner, even if they want to retaliate, it will be by themselves, not by a mere Shen family.

So, she must help the Zhong family.

It's just a favor, how can I help?

Thinking about this, Zhong Youyou settled down and said, "Qin Yao, you can decide on the funding issue. I won't interfere."

"I will take the earliest flight back tomorrow."

Although Zhong Youyou didn't want to interfere with Qin Yao's decision, Qin Yao knew her as if he knew himself. He could tell what she was thinking at this time.

Qin Yao paused and said, "Okay, go to bed early."
