After pausing for a while, Josh said suddenly, “By the way, Bob, how much compensation will be paid to the family of the workers who died on the construction site?”
“500000 yuan. It’s the compensation standard set by the head office. We will pay it as soon as possible.” Bob said.
“500000 yuan? It’s too little. Make it double and give 1 million yuan for each family. I don’t care how much the standard of the head office is, in our branch, the families of the workers who die of accidents will get 1 million yuan as compensation.” Josh said.
Josh remembered clearly that when his father had an accident on the construction site, the company of his father passed the buck and didn’t give a penny to them. His mother went to the company to ask for the compensation, but she was beaten and kicked out.
In the end, his mother lent money to bury his father.
“Too little?” Bob said surprisedly.
In Bob’s view, most companies think the compensation is too much when accidents like that happen. It’s the first time he has ever heard the boss of the company say the compensation is too little.
“Life is priceless, so 500000 yuan is too little.” Josh said firmly.
“Chairman Lin, there are not many conscientious bosses like you these days. Chairman Lin, please rest assured, I will pay the compensation of 1 million yuan to each family within half a month.” Bob said seriously.
This is just a small matter, but it makes Bob respect Josh so much.
Then Bob said angrily, “In the final analysis, it’s the fault of Jinqiang Group. It makes me angry to think about it. Chairman Lin, shall we just let it go?”
Josh narrowed his eyes and said, “Let it go? Of course not. I will make Jinqiang Group pay a hundred times more than what we pay this time. I will also bring fair back to the dozens of migrant workers who died. I certainly will do that!”
The dozen or so migrant works are the epitome of Josh’s father. If Josh brings fair back to them, he also brings fair back to his dead father.
Josh was once a poor boy and he had no rights and power to shake Jinqiang Group, but that’s not the case now.
As the local villain of Qingyang City, Jinqiang Group is deeply rooted in Qingyang City.
It’s absolutely difficult for Josh to knock down Jinqiang Group by his own ability without turning to his grandfather for help. He couldn’t make it in a short period of time.
But after this accident, Josh has made up his mind to knock down Jinqiang Group on his own no matter how difficult it is.
This is a goal that Josh set for himself at that moment.
“It’s certainly impossible to destroy Jinqiang Group in a short period of time. But just as the saying goes, it’s impolite not to reciprocate. How can we don’t give them a gift since they plotted against us?” Josh said.
“Chairman Lin, what wise idea do you have?” Bob asked curiously.
“You pay to hire a big truck. At midnight, you load a truckload of feces and dump it in front of Jinqiang Xian’s house to block his door. This is a gift for him. It will gross him out.” Josh sneered and said.
“That’s a splendid idea. It will absolutely sicken him. Chairman Lin, don’t worry, I’ll go and order it to be done in a moment.” Bob said excitedly.
The accident also infuriated Bob, who certainly wanted to vent his anger.
Josh then looked at Bob and said seriously, “Bob, whatever the outcome of the matter, you must bear this lesson in mind. You must strength the inspection of other construction sites. It must not happen again.”
Bob nodded and said, “Don’t worry, Chairman. Just as the saying goes, a fall into the pit, a gain in your wit. In the future, I will strengthen the security forces to prevent this from happening.”
It’s going to be a tough wait for Josh and Bob.
Josh was not sure whether his idea would work and whether he could make it through.
He only knew that if he really loses 1.5 billion yuan, he will be too ashamed to meet his grandfather next time.
……
After walking out of the company, Josh had a flash of inspiration and figured a way out.
“Gulang! Come out!” Josh shouted.
A few seconds later, a figure appeared in front of Josh.
He is Gulang, who protects Josh secretly.
“Little master, what do you want me to do.” Gulang said with a husky and low voice.
“Gulang, you’re awesome, aren’t you?” Josh asked.
“There is no rival for me at least in the Southwest.” Gulang answered calmly.
“Gulang, you are my man now, right?” Josh asked.
“Of course.” Gulang nodded and said.
“Such being the case, go and kill Jinqiang of the Jinqiang Group and you can prove yourself to me.” Josh said.
“I’m sorry, little master. My job is to protect you. The old master has told me that I shall help you when your life is in danger.” Gulang said expressionlessly.
After hearing that, Josh was speechless.
“Hum, I don’t think you have the power to do that, do you?” Josh said. Josh could only encourage him to do that by means of criticizing his ability.
“You can think it your own way.” Gulang said. Then he turned and walked away.
“Hey! Hey! Why you just walk away? Didn’t you say you are my man?” Josh said.
Josh looked speechless as Gulang left without any hesitation.
Josh thought it would be much easier if Gulang could go to kill Jinqiang.
But Gulang refused to do what he asked, so Josh had to abandon the idea of letting Gulang kill Jinqiang.
……
After leaving the company, Josh went straight to the school.
Along the way to the school, Josh was thinking how to completely knock down Jinqiang Group without his grandpa’s help.
The boss of Jinqiang Group is Jinqiang Xiang, the head of the underworld organization of Qingyang City. That’s why he is so peremptory.
Josh had a bold idea in his mind, that is to create an underworld organization by himself and then use it to destroy the underworld organization of Jinqiang. Then he could unify all the underworld forces of Qingyang City.
Of course, that’s just one idea of Josh. If he really puts that into practice, it will be a real challenge.
……
As soon as Josh arrived at school, he received a call from Bob.
“Chairman, your method is really effective. Those clients who yelled to cancel the purchase of the house changed their mind when they knew a 30% discount will be given to them. Only a few of them insist to cancel the purchase, but we can sell the houses again.” Bob said excitedly.
At that moment, Bob admired Josh from the bottom of his heart. He didn’t expect that Josh could resolve the crisis by that method.
“Really? That’s good.” Josh said.
After hearing that, Josh breathed a sigh of relief.
Although he couldn’t make much money by selling the houses with a 30% discount, he could keep the principal.
In such a disturbance, this result is a resounding triumph.
Although the disturbance was temporarily calmed down, Josh and Jinqiang Group were extremely antagonistic since then.
……
In the office of the Chairman on the top floor of Jinqiang Group Building, Jinqiang, a bald man, was sitting on the executive chair leisurely with a cigar.
The one who’s standing beside him is his inept adviser.
“Mr. Xiang, Huading Group must be full of phone calls at this moment. I’m sure Huading Group is in a messy as there are so many clients want to cancel the purchase of house. Ha, ha.” The inept adviser said excitedly.
“I’ll wait and see how Huading Group will handle this matter.” Jinqiang said with a triumphant smile.
“What else can they do except for losing money? Huading Group will lose at least one billion yuan. Ha, ha.” The inept adviser let out an odd laugh.
“Adviser, your strategy is very good. I’ll give you what you deserve.” Jinqiang said with a smile.
“Thank you, Mr. Xiang.” The inept adviser nodded pleasantly and said.
At that moment, a thin man hurried in. He cried as he ran, “Mr. Xiang, something bad has happened.”
“Just say what’s wrong.” Jinqiang said with a frown.
“Mr. Xiang, Huading Group offered a 30% discount. Those who yelled to cancel the purchase of house compromised and stopped making a fuss. Things have now settled down. Although Huading Group doesn’t make much money, it doesn’t suffer a loss.” The thin man said.
“What?” Jinqiang said.
He was so surprised that he stood up from the chair with a clouded face.
“Damn it! Why are these bastards taking such a shaky stand? It’s only a 30% discount and they compromised?” The inapt advisor couldn’t help said swear words.
“Who dared offer a 30% discount? Who the hell had the idea? Fuck!” Jinqiang said.
Jinqiang was so angry that he smashed his cigar on the ground.
Jinqiang didn’t expect the scheme they’ve planned for such a long time was resolved by Huading Group easily.
