Chapter 23
In fact, this wasn't just monopolizing the market - they were obviously deliberately extorting money from her!
"Miss Lin, that's the only way we can get materials in. Now they've created a road block and they don't allow any other suppliers' materials to come through. If we need materials, we have to buy from them."
Frustration was written all over the face of the one in charge of this, Mr Xu. "But their materials are five times higher than the market rate!"
It was impossible for them to buy because this price would exceed their budget, and the office would never approve this purchase.
The factory had to be built very urgently because the project had already started. If they couldn't build the factory in time, they would face great losses.
Nobody could shoulder this responsibility at all.
Lin Yuzhen asked, "Who are these people?”
"No idea, they just popped out from nowhere." There was nothing Mr Xu could do.
He had gone to reason with them but was nearly beaten up. "I called the police and they ran once the police came. But after the police left, they came back and continued blocking the road, so I don't know what to do at all."
He couldn't possibly get the police to keep coming back either.
Lin Yuzhen was furious now.
These people had obviously come to make trouble.
They had just chased away one group a few days back, and now a new group was here. It seemed like many people had their eye on this project.
Lin Yuzhen didn't even know who could be so bent on ruining this project.
She sat in the office with the various project managers to think of a solution. Meanwhile, Jiang Ning, who had been standing at the door all this time, hopped into the car and left.
There was only one proper road leading from the city to where the factory was. The road wasn't very wide, but it was the only way to the factory.
All the building materials the factory needed had to come through this road to get to the factory.
But right now, there was a large sign halfway down the road: Road block ahead, drive slowly.
They didn't care about ordinary cars, but if it was a vehicle carrying building materials, they would immediately tell the driver to turn back and get lost.
"Boss, I think this Lin Group factory is never going to get built even if you give them a few decades." "Hoho, they can't get any steel or cement or wood in, what will they use to build?"
"Well it's not impossible. They just have to buy from us! It's only five or six times more expensive, and their company is filthy rich anyway!"
The few of them were sitting in a little tent by the road. They made sure that not a single vehicle carrying materials for the Lin Group could get through.
"I heard Laosi is still in a coma?”
"That useless fellow, I got him to settle this but he ended up in this state. Boss was very unhappy when he heard about what happened!”
"But who was that guy even? He dared to beat up our fellow brothers - he must be tired of living!"
As they were talking, they suddenly saw a car coming at them at high speed.
They could see from afar that it was a white BMW, but for some reason, the front of the car had been smashed in very badly.
"Tell him to stop, ask who it is," the leader of the group quietly instructed.
The rest of them immediately walked out and held out a hand to tell Jiang Ning to slow down and stop.
But...
VROOM VROOM VOOM!
The car engine became even louder. He didn't decelerate, but accelerated instead!
Everyone's face turned pale.
"Stop! STOP!"
They stood in front of the road block. They had never seen anyone crazy enough to crash right into them.
But the person coming wasn't just anybody - it was Jiang Ning!
BAM!
The BMW smashed into the barrier head on, scaring all of them half to death!
The barrier they had was now broken into several pieces.
"Bloody hell! This guy's nuts!"
"He's crazy!"
"This is murder!"
The few of them were sprawled on the floor, their hearts coming out of their mouths soon.
If they had reacted that bit slower, they would have been killed.
The car stopped not far from them, and Jiang Ning was slowly walking over. The few of them were now filled with fury. This guy even dared to stop and get out?
If they didn't beat him today, they'd write their names backwards from now on!
"Get your ass over here!"
"Bloody hell, how dare you nearly kill me, I'm going to kill you!"
"Fuck, you'd better kneel down and compensate me!"
They shouted angrily as they made their way towards Jiang Ning.
One of them reached to grab Jiang Ning's clothes, but there was a smacking sound as he felt his chest shake violently and a loud crack could be heard. He hadn't even seen when Jiang Ning had made his attack!
His bone was broken!
"AHHH!"
Howls of pain filled the air!
In a blink of an eye, three of them were on the ground with their limbs all broken!
The last man in the tent heard the noise and rushed out, a knife in his hand.
"You're asking for it!"
BAM!
Jiang Ning saw him rushing over and suddenly held up his hand. A fist struck the man straight in the nose and blood spurted everywhere.
That man's face practically sank in.
"Ahhhhhhh.."
That pain was indescribable!
"Who...who the hell are you?"
The man held his nose as fresh blood continued to flow between his fingers. "Do you know who we are?!"
"I don't care whose dogs you are."
Jiang Ning looked at the rest, his voice as cold as the air in winter. "I will only give you one warning. If you dare to affect the Lin Group factory's building progress, you're going to die!"
With that, he turned and hopped into the car and left.
After Jiang Ning had left, all of them still couldn't even stand. Part of the reason was because their limbs had been broken, but it was also because the frightening aura that Jiang Ning exuded made them so fearful, they found it difficult to breathe!
It was as if they had come face to face with a violent dragon and not a man!
A violent dragon that could easily tear them to pieces!
"Hurry! Get to the hospital! Hurry up!"
"Tell Boss! We've run into a difficult one!"
Back at the meeting room, Lin Yuzhen and the rest still hadn't thought of a good solution.
These people were very cunning, and it seemed like there was no other way but to meet their demands.
"This won't do. I'm going to talk to them."
Lin Yuzhen got up from her seat. She couldn't afford to waste anymore time.
Once they were behind schedule to build the factory, they would have to adjust the timeline for the entire project. She couldn't afford to be responsible for the losses in their investment they would suffer if that happened.
"No need to talk," Jiang Ning reappeared at the door. Tve already talked to them."
"What?"
Lin Yuzhen and the other project managers were stunned.
"When did you go and talk to them?"
"When you guys were having a meeting," Jiang Ning calmly relied. 'Tve already talked to them, they know they were in the wrong, so they've already moved the barrier away. You can let the vehicles through now.”
Lin Yuzhen suddenly felt dizzy.
They had spent a long time discussing solutions but couldn't find a good one. Jiang Ning had just gone out for a while and managed to reach an agreement?
That was impossible.
But Jiang Ning had never lied to her. At least from the time she knew him till now, he had never lied at all.
"Miss Lin?" Mr Xu asked cautiously.
"Tell the vehicles to quickly send everything in,” replied Lin Yuzhen.
Mr Xu nodded and made arrangements. Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Lin Yuzhen walked over to Jiang Ning and tilted her head as she looked up at him, "How did you settle this?"
"With gentle persuasion and a sincere heart."
Jiang Ning laughed and put up a fist. "Well that's what I planned to do initially. But after thinking about it, my fists would settle his matter much quicker."
Lin Yuzhen was speechless.
"It's time to knock off, so let's go”
"What? Again? Are we going home?"
Jiang Ning dragged Lin Yuzhen into the car and made a sharp turn, causing all the dust to fly everywhere.
"The front of this car is all banged up and looks bad on you. Let's go get another car."
