Chapter 115 - 112: Henchman
Liu Chan didn’t want to blow things up since it wouldn’t do him any good and could even land him in jail. Thus, to resolve the matter with minimal cost, he used both soft and hard tactics on Ye Qingping.
In fact, the wages for tens of thousands of people only added up to nearly ten million, which wasn’t much for him. However, his company was on the brink of bankruptcy, so why should he pay the salaries of those workers? This was Liu Chan’s selfish and despicable thought.
Liu Chan had fallen into a gambling addiction, harming others and himself, not to mention becoming extremely ruthless.
Currently, he didn’t have much cash flow left, not enough to pay wages. The expenses for bribery and hiring Wu Dahai were considerable. Next, he planned to start selling off the factory’s equipment and land.
Ye Qingping was unmoved by Liu Chan’s persuasion, saying angrily, "Director Liu, the workers chose me as their representative to demand their wages because they trust me. Even if I die, I must uphold justice. The workers’ hard-earned money isn’t easy to come by, and we won’t agree to you pocketing it. Do you think that by paying just my salary, you can silence everyone? You’re dreaming. You better give up on that thought early on."
"What are you going to do after having your lackeys break one of my legs? If you have the guts, break the other one too."
"In any case, I’m determined to fight you to the end. I won’t give up until I’ve gotten all the wages back."
Ye Qingping set aside his personal interests, risking his safety for the sake of the workers.
Wu Dahai’s expression darkened, revealing a malicious gleam. In the underworld, he was famously known as Brother Hai. A call from him could summon numerous followers, but now he was being called a lackey, which made him furious.
"You won’t cry until you see your coffin. Believe it or not, I’ll chop you to pieces," Wu Dahai said viciously.
