Chapter 227 Wanna Blackmail Me for Money?

“Let’s go to find something to eat first.” said Wang Feng. Then he took Gu Ping to the fast food restaurant where he had gone before.

After they sat down, Wang Feng started asking. “Brother, is there any problem with the new company?”

“Well... the company has been running on the right track, and we’ve already got a few deals. But the problem is that these days the government workers frequently came here to accuse us of the illegal business and demanded a closedown for the rectification, which is actually too annoying.”

“Brother, do they want money?” Wang Feng said with a smile.

“How do you know?” Gu Ping asked Wang Feng with disbelief.

The new company had all the formalities. There was nothing to rectify. However, they were the government workers. It would be stupid to go against the government. If we do this, the loss would be all theirs.

But who could bear that they made trouble for them frequently?

“How much do they want?” Wang Feng asked with a sneer.

He asked his Brother to do the formalities of the company. He believed that He Tian was capable of accomplishing it. However, the local government still came to find fault with them. They wanted nothing but money.

Now this was already a common occurrence in society. Wang Feng never thought everything would go well all the time in his company.

It would be possible if the company was in Zhu Hai City. Because the people would let them off for the sake of him. But it could be totally a different thing in other places.

“They want this number.”Gu Ping showed two of his fingers.

“Two hundred thousand?” Asked by Wang Feng.

“No, they want two million. How can we possibly afford so much money? We just started the business. And we have not got any income at all. They just want to shut us down by doing this.” Gu Ping’s voice was angry and hard to control.

Why didn’t they go to rob a bank instead of asking a new company for two million?

Although a lot of local governments asked some start-ups for red envelopes now, two million was definitely too much. Their new company could not afford it at all. Even though they could afford it, it was impossible to give it to them.

It was actually blackmailing.

“Reckless bastards! They should dare to blackmail me?” Wang Feng said with a sneer on his face.

“Brother, let’s have dinner first. And then we just go directly to Qiong Yao City. Let’s see who on earth dares ask me for two million.” Wang Feng sneered without any interest in discussing this.

It was pointless to be an armchair strategist. They still needed to see it by themselves.

Wu Jiayi was the only one holding up the new company. Wang Feng worried that she dealt with everything by herself. So, it would be the best way for him to go there to deal with it.

“OK.” Gu Ping nodded without any dissent.

The new company was operated by Wang Feng. Gu Ping had not been able to find him. So, he couldn’t offer any solutions. The money was Wang Feng’s. It was so stupid to give others two million. Wang Feng would not do such a stupid thing.

Now with Wang Feng’s words, Gu Ping settled down. Wang Feng should be able to solve the problem.

They finished their meal here quickly and drove straightly off in Wang Feng’s sports car instead of going back to the jewelry shop.

Having called Bei Yunxue to explain what they were going to do, Wang Feng drove straightly into the expressway to Qiong Yao City.

Zhu Hai City was bordered on Qiong Yao City, so it took them no more than two hours to get there.

Just as they left the expressway, they found that Wu Jiayi had been waiting for them for quite a while.

“Finally, you came, Wang Feng.” Seeing Wang Feng, Wu Jiayi let out a long sigh.

The pressure of the company overwhelmed her almost. If she had not been afraid that the company was destroyed in her hand, she would have quit long ago.

She couldn’t make any decision on two million. Although Gu Ping was Wang Feng’s brother, he could not make any decision, neither.

“That’s alright. I’ll set about dealing with it right away. I think you should take one-day leave and have a good rest. You must be really fatigued.” said Wang Feng. However, Wu Jiayi shook her head repeatedly and said, “I’m fine. What I hope is only that you can come as soon as possible to solve the problem.”

“Alright. Let’s go to the new company first, and then know about the details.”

“Just follow me.” Wu Jiayi got into her car and led the way for the other two people.

Although it could not be compared with Zhu Hai City in economy, Qiong Yao City was also a quite developed city. There were many high buildings and large mansions all over the city, which looked very prosperous.

However, the prosperity behind the city always stood for the under-the-table evil. The problem that their new company faced with was a good example.

They asked for two million. Go to hell!

The new company was located outside the third ring of Qiong Yao City, which was rather remote. It was just for the beginning of the company. After the company grew, they could relocate it to a better place.

historical

There were about twenty employees in the company, and now they were bustling about. They didn’t even notice that Wang Feng came in. Most of them just had a glance at him.

“Attention, please.” said Wu Jiayi. She clapped her hands.

Having heard her words, people who were busy with work stopped what they were doing and showed their doubt to her.

Recently there were some people who made trouble for them frequently, which prevented them from working properly. They thought that Wang Feng was one of the harassers, so their expressions were a bit unfriendly.

The company offered a higher remuneration than other companies, so these people wanted to root in the company. However, they were also worried about that the company might close down any time if the problem wasn’t solved.

“President, just be honest with us. What is the matter? We are listening.” A gentle-looking guy who seemed to be a fresh graduate opened his mouth.

“Yes, President, just be honest with us.” Some other people echoed.

“That’s it. The person standing next to me is the big boss of our company. You can call him President Wang.”

“President Wang?” Hearing what Wu Jiayi said, Wang Feng rubbed his nose. This was the first time that he had been addressed with the title of President, which he was not quite used to calling him.

“Is he our boss?” Hearing that Wang Feng was their boss, those people all had a doubtful face.

They hadn’t known who their boss was since they worked in the company. But they believed that the one who could start such a company and developed it on the right track, might have good capacity.

But they could not think that their boss should be a man younger than them.

“Nice to meet you, President Wang.” Seeing their boss, people changed themselves to the right attitude. Gradually someone started to call President Wang, and then people behind also called him.

“Forget about the title. We work in the same company, so we are family. I don’t come here to check your work, but to solve the problem. So, take it easy.” Wang Feng lowered his hands and gave everyone a sign to have a seat.

“It is my fault to let the company suffer the harassment for a long time, so each of you can go to the finance office to get ten thousand yuan as your mental damage compensation later.” Everybody was shocked at what he just said and showed their happiness.

They came to work in the company for no more than a week. They didn’t even turn into a regular employee. Now Wang Feng should give each of them ten thousand. What a riche!

And he was a very young riche!

Everybody was happy about it, but Wu Jiayi stared at Wang Feng with an extremely weird look. Once he came here, he spent hundreds of thousands. He really splashed out on it.

But Wu Jiayi also knew that what Wang Feng did was to catch their hearts. The company couldn’t go well without them. It might be a little bit more to give each of them ten thousand. But it was worthwhile to do this because people who got the money would do their best for the company. Any company couldn’t go well without talents absolutely.

“So, who is a native in Qiong Yao city?” Wang Feng asked suddenly at that time.

“Several of us were born and raised here. Any problems, President Wang?” Hearing what Wang Feng said, several people stood up one after another with doubtful looks on their faces.

“Don’t worry. I just want to ask you who wants to blackmail us in Qiong Yao City.” They let out a deep breath after hearing what Wang Feng said.

“Well, people who made trouble for us these days, were from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau. They accused us of incomplete formalities, which had to be made up by giving them more money.” Said by an employee with an angry look.

They needed more money to make it up? What a nasty excuse for blackmailing! How black-hearted they were to ask for two million! Not to mention the boss, even the ordinary employees knew that it was not just making it up. It was even more evil than the gangsters asking for protection fee.

“Can you guys dig out the information of the ringleader?”

“Probably we can.” said an employee. And then he went to work with his computer.

A while later, he pushed his monitor and said, “There was his complete information.”

Though he was far away from the monitor, Wang Feng just glanced over all the information on it with a glance.

Liu Xingguang who was 35 years old and the Secretary of the Director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, had been doing the job for about 5 or 6 years. There was some other information about him behind, such as personal experience which Wang Feng ignored. He only focused on the most important thing.

“Alright. You guys go on with your work and I’ll solve the problem as soon as possible.” After saying this, Wang Feng left along with Gu Ping.

It was so bare-faced for a mere secretary to ask them for so much money!

Wang Feng estimated that the secretary must do all this behind the director’s back. He Tian must have got the permission of the director to do things. But his secretary was so stupid. It was like a death absolutely for doing this.
