Chapter 981: Chapter 951:
“Sigh, actually, I didn’t want to pursue these matters, but since higher-ups are investigating, I can’t just ignore it!” Director Liu sighed and said, “Tianya Group’s early port business leaked quite a bit of tax, and later did a lot of smuggling deals. Mr. Li, look…”
“Haha, you guys at the Bureau of Comrce really do investigate a lot!” Li Ruo smiled indifferently. How could any powerful company not have a dark or shady history behind it? If really investigated, I’m afraid any large company would have so issues like this.
Many companies started with the underworld, and others thrived through smuggling… In short, to beco strong, one must take a different path, and gradually bleach over a long period. This is a path that every skilled businessman must take. So, many people call businessn ‘cunning rchants’! Cunning rchants, without cunning, no comrce. That’s roughly the idea.
“Haha, Mr. Li, this is our job!” Vice Director Liu smiled helplessly.
Now, the Tianya Group’s past shady history is caught by the throat. Li Ruo smiled indifferently and said, “Then… what do you want to do now?”
“Well… you really put in a tough spot!” Vice Director Liu chuckled, Li Ruo glanced at him and said, “Let’s talk in the eting room!”
“Good, good, that’s good, let’s discuss in the eting room!” Director Liu nodded quickly, he was internally thinking of the benefits Tianya Group had given him. He followed Li Ruo and Lin Ziwen into the reception room on the first floor. Li Ruo casually sat down on the chair and then said, “Director Liu, what do you think we should do to resolve this?”
“Well… frankly, I don’t know what to do!” Director Liu looked embarrassed and said, “This is the order from above. You know the recent rumors about Tianya Group aren’t very good!”
“Just rumors!” Li Ruo chuckled disdainfully.
“But rumors are fiercer than tigers!” Director Liu’s eyes widened and he said, “Aren’t you afraid that soone might stab you in the back at this mont? If soone really wants to target Tianya Group, they will definitely choose to strike when Tianya Group is weakest. When is Tianya Group weakest? It’s at this ti. So many people within Tianya Group, wouldn’t soone suspect this information? Wouldn’t soone be bought?”
Sss…
Li Ruo suddenly inhaled sharply, it seems the benefits given in usual days weren’t in vain. No matter what, at least this greedy guy gave her a hint now, that soone inside Tianya Group was bought. Thinking of this, Li Ruo’s face turned pale. But she quickly cald down and said, “Even if that’s the case, so what? Tianya Group has never done anything illegal!”
“Not now, doesn’t an it didn’t happen before!” Director Liu quickly said.
“Humph, if soone really wants to investigate, fine, then apply to the US authorities first!” Li Ruo slapped the conference table sharply and said coldly, “Tianya Group pays so much tax to the country every year, yet people still keep forcing . If you really push , we’ll go down together.”
“Mr. Li, don’t be mad, don’t be mad!” Director Liu quickly waved his hand. Deep down he thought, if you go down with the ship, whom should I turn to?
“Go and tell your superiors that dealing with Tianya Group isn’t that easy!” Li Ruo grinned and said, “Tianya Group is now a US-owned enterprise, if you want to play, I’ll play along to the end. At least I have a fallback option, I can return to the United States. Ask if he has any fallback options?”
That sentence stunned Director Liu. Director Liu was sowhat surprised; when did Li Ruo, a weak woman, beco so strong? He was just about to speak, but Li Ruo took over his speaking rights, smiled broadly and said, “By the way, tell him, I have a few Central Bosses backing , let him not forget. Everything he does now, Central sees it.”
Sss…
This ti, it was Director Liu who inhaled sharply. Earlier, Li Ruo was shocked by his words; this ti, Director Liu was shocked by Li Ruo. Director Liu vaguely recalled sothing. It seed Director Zhang once told him, Tianya Group had backing from Central Bosses, so he should try not to touch it. Otherwise, the consequences would be severe.
Because of the political fight between them at that ti, he didn’t take Director Zhang’s words seriously, just thought he was bluffing. But this ti, Li Ruo brought it up, inadvertently awakening his mory. Director Liu’s first thought was that he had taken millions in bribes from Tianya Group, how many years would that be sentenced for? His face turned pale.
“Director Liu, rest assured, I won’t target you, but I also hope you don’t target !” Li Ruo smiled indifferently.
“Yes, yes!” Vice Director Liu quickly nodded and said, “How could we? Aren’t we good friends?”
“Indeed we are!” Li Ruo showed a strange smile, then turned to Lin Ziwen and said, “Go to finance, take out a hundred thousand for Director Liu, and consider it a hardship allowance!”
“No, no!” Vice Director Liu jumped up in fear, shit, Central Bosses support you, who still dares to target you? If I take ten thousand more, wouldn’t I be sentenced to another year?
Watching Director Liu run out in fright, Lin Ziwen covered her mouth and laughed, saying, “Mr. Li, why is Vice Director Liu so afraid of you?”
“He’s not afraid of , he’s afraid of the people behind !” Li Ruo laughed coldly.
…
The news reached Minister Zhang’s ears, and Minister Zhang frowned tightly. He had planned to deal with Tianya Group for a long ti, and he didn’t want to give up because of soone’s threats. Even if it ant going bankrupt or sacrificing his life, the vengeance for the death of his child was worth it.
“Minister Zhang, Li Ruo might really be formidable!” The balding middle-aged man gritted his teeth.
“Not easy to deal with at all!” Minister Zhang nodded.
“Yes!” The balding man nodded helplessly and then said, “If Li Ruo really has people from Central behind her, then… what should we do?”
“We’ll deal with her nonetheless!” Minister Zhang gritted his teeth, “But, how we specifically deal with her, needs careful consideration.”
A few days passed in the blink of an eye. The arrival of the Lantern Festival diluted the rumors about Tianya Group and dispelled the gloom brought by the three lively lives lost in Jianghuai City. This was good news for the Tianya Group.
On the day of the Lantern Festival, Li Ruo called Zhang Yantong and Dian Ling, inviting them to villa No.1 to celebrate the festival together. The two girls visited as promised. Li Ruo’s invitations were considered a friendly gesture. Whether it was Zhang Yantong or Dian Ling, both understood that in Ye Chen’s heart, Li Ruo was the most important person. As for themselves, they were secondary. So, Li Ruo’s invitation made the two quite happy.
The two happily went to the appointnt, believing it was a chance for harmonious coexistence in the future. No matter what, all three people were determined to marry Ye Chen, so dealing with each other’s relationship beca particularly important. Furthermore, all three were strong-willed individuals, and there was an invisible competition between Zhang Yantong and Dian Ling from an early age. Now, suddenly introducing Li Ruo into the mix, what would the result be?
On Lantern Night, the three gathered at villa No.1; they personally cooked, fortunately, the villa’s kitchen was big enough to accommodate the three, and all the villa’s maids were driven out of the kitchen. The three of them gathered together discussing the issues of stir-frying dishes.
Woof, woof…
The appearance of Wangxingren caught the three by surprise. Looking at the little dog staring at them in confusion, Dian Ling curiously asked, “Li Ruo, this puppy is so cute!”
“Isn’t it?” Li Ruo smiled slyly, “Not only cute, its na is cute too!”
“Really? What’s its na?” Dian Ling asked curiously.
“Haha, guess!” Li Ruo chuckled, Dian Ling shook her head, expressing she didn’t know.
“Is it called Xiao Bai?” Dian Ling, seeing the dog’s entire body of white fur, asked curiously.
“Haha, no way!” Li Ruo shook her head imdiately and said, “It’s called Little Yezi!”
“Ah?!” Dian Ling and Zhang Yantong simultaneously looked at Little Yezi at the door in shock and asked, “It’s… it’s called Little Yezi?! Won’t Ye Chen be angry if he finds out?”
“Haha, he knew long ago. He even gets along well with Little Yezi!” Li Ruo laughed heartily. She showed off a proud smile, clearly proud of the na she had given the dog.
“Haha, Little Yezi, co here, let spank you!” Dian Ling wickedly walked towards Little Yezi. Initially, Little Yezi stared at Dian Ling in confusion, but when Dian Ling reached out to hold Little Yezi, it quickly retreated, letting out a cry and ran away.
“Haha, Lingling, you scared Little Yezi away!” Zhang Yantong laughed, “Bla it on your unpleasant appearance!”
“Oh, co on, what’s that got to do with !” Dian Ling snorted.
“If you ask , you definitely wanted to hold Little Yezi and pretend it was Ye Chen!” Zhang Yantong laughed.
“Oh, stop it. I’m not as wicked as you!” Dian Ling snorted.
