Chapter 54 - 54 Exterminate The Weeds
54 Exterminate The Weeds
Yin Xun was also full and knew that Fang Yao would not be back for a while. She had work to do tomorrow and could not wait for him, so while the servants were collecting the cutlery, she asked the butler about Fang Yao’s preferences.
In the end, the reply she got was that Fang Yao did not have any particular preferences or hobbies.
After getting the answer, Yin Xun bid farewell to the butler and walked toward her house.
Originally, she wanted to find out what Fang Yao liked. Then, when Fang Yao was free to be treated to a meal and she could make him happy, she would naturally talk about the collaboration.
However, she was not expecting Fang Yao to not have any preferences. That made things difficult for her.
Yin Xun was walking home slowly when a bolt of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky, followed by thunder. Yin Xun looked up at the sky. At this moment, the sky was covered in dark clouds. There was not a star to be seen.
There was a damp smell in the air. It seemed like there would be heavy rain tonight. Listening to the thunder, Yin Xun suddenly remembered that this was how the weather was before she transmigrated. She wondered how her original world was doing.
If she guessed correctly, her soul must have entered this book. What would happen to her original body without a soul? Would she be treated as a dead person and be casually cremated or buried?
If she needed to leave this world one day, what would she do?
Yin Xun raised her hand and patted her cheek to comfort herself. Since she was here, she should take things as they came. She should think about the future later. Whatever happened, she would just cross the bridge when the time came.
Yin Xun had a good night’s sleep after returning home. The next morning, she rushed to Donggang Modern City.
She arrived before it was time for work. It was not because she was being proactive, but mainly because she did not know what dirty tricks Si Fan would play. After all, she and Si Fan had already fought twice. Si Fan was the male lead of the original novel and had the aura of the male lead. She did not dare to relax.
The matter of the materials had not been settled yet, so Donggang was still in the stage of construction closure. Yin Xun had to meet Liu Yi in the afternoon to continue discussing cooperation terms, so she had to settle the matter of Donggang in the morning.
Because the work was on hold, there were only a few managers here.
Yin Xun found the quality inspector and called him alone to an office for questioning.
“What did you think of the matter I discussed with you last time?” Yin Xun asked in a low voice.
“I went back and thought about it for a long time. Although this matter is more dangerous, didn’t you say that you would protect me? I chose to believe you.” The quality inspector continued, “I’ve already prepared all the information. As long as I report it, none of them will be able to escape.”
Yin Xun nodded in satisfaction and said, “Then I’ll leave this matter to you.”
Ever since Yin Xun checked on the problem the first time, she had been paying attention to everything in Donggang City, be it the materials, the movement of people, or the finances. The more she observed, the more problems she discovered.
She realized that half of Donggang City’s management were Si Fan’s men. To be precise, they were bribed by Si Fan’s subordinates. Si Fan did not personally take action, but let his a.s.sistants do the dirty work. He was probably afraid of attracting trouble.
The problem with the materials this time was all caused by the people Si Fan had bribed. Originally, these people had done very well and basically did not leave any evidence behind. However, they had forgotten one person, and that was the quality inspector that they had always looked down on and ostracized. They felt that the quality inspector could not say anything and was just an ordinary employee, so there was nothing to be afraid of.
However, they did not expect that the quality inspector would secretly leave evidence behind. In the end, Yin Xun even valued him. The quality inspector took the evidence and reported it, and the administration quickly sent people to investigate.
Yin Xun and the quality inspector cooperated with the people from the administration to investigate and question them. They found out who was in charge of taking bribes and deliberately using inferior materials in this matter.
At this moment, those people were still enjoying their vacation and had no idea that they had been found out. They were having fun outside when the police suddenly came looking for them.
As there was sufficient evidence, the police quickly arrested all the people in charge who were involved at this moment. Half of the management team was vacant.
Yin Xun found the main person-in-charge, Yu Tu, and said, “If nothing goes wrong, we’ll be starting work again soon. But there are too many vacancies now. Hurry up and recruit people. This quality inspector…”
“My name is Jiang Xing.” The quality inspector reacted quickly. Seeing that Yin Xun had forgotten his name, he quickly reminded her.
“Yes, Jiang Xing will be in charge of the quality inspection in the future,” Yin Xun instructed.
“Yes!” Yu Tu agreed.
