Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 340 Each Move Crueler than the Last

```

The hotpot restaurant was now left with only Zheng Kaiyang and Wang Tongshan.

After a long while, Wang Tongshan broke the silence, "It seems that dealing with Xu Yang isn't so simple anymore. Liang Zi has been caught, and it's almost impossible to take him out now. Plus, even Liang Zi's men have fallen, Xu Yang must have taken ample precautions, specifically against our dirty tricks."

Zheng Kaiyang asked, "Wang Bro, what do we do now?"

Wang Tongshan pondered and said, "We have to rescue Liang Zi, otherwise, if he confesses everything, those things alone would be enough to do us in."

Zheng Kaiyang looked troubled, "They've been taken to the provincial city, and what's more, it's by some special operations group. Rescuing them is going to be tough."

He too hoped for a rescue, as he had also made Liang Wujun do many dirty deeds.

Wang Tongshan declared, "No matter how difficult it is, we must rescue him. We can use the collective strength and call everyone together."

Zheng Kaiyang's eyes lit up, "Exactly, use the collective strength to pressure the officials. I refuse to believe that the government can withstand that kind of pressure!"

So, the two immediately left the hotpot restaurant and went back to Wang Tongshan's company together.

In Wang Tongshan's office, the two of them drew up a list.

Then, dividing the list in half, they each made calls, arranging for these people to meet the next morning at nine o'clock at Fengcheng Hotel.

That night, Zheng Kaiyang and Wang Tongshan stayed at a club.

The next morning, after having breakfast, they went to Fengcheng Hotel together.

They arrived at the meeting room scheduled for nine o'clock.

The meeting room was already full of people.

Seeing these people, both Zheng Kaiyang and Wang Tongshan looked rather uncomfortable.

Because the attendees were all young people.

Clearly, the key figures hadn't come; only their assistants had.

A young man stood up and approached them, "President Wang, President Zheng, our President Luo is busy today and couldn't make it. However, he instructed me to tell you that your concerns are his concerns. Whatever you need him to do, he won't hesitate!"

The others too started speaking, all implying the same thing.

Hearing these words, Zheng Kaiyang and Wang Tongshan's expressions finally eased.

Thus, Zheng Kaiyang began, "How things stand, I believe your bosses have already told you, so I won't beat around the bush. Our goal for gathering here is to rescue Liang Wujun. Let's hear if anyone has any suggestions."

President Luo's assistant said, "President Zheng, our President Luo mentioned that actually, this matter is quite simple, we just apply direct pressure!"

Pressure?

Zheng Kaiyang and Wang Tongshan exchanged a glance, finding President Luo's thoughts coinciding with their own.

As for the others, they appeared somewhat confused, their faces full of question marks.

President Luo's assistant gave a slight smile and explained, "Among us here, each represents an entrepreneur. If we unite, there's room for maneuver in any matter. I have drafted a joint statement according to President Luo's intentions, for your review."

By the end of his speech, he took out a stack of documents and distributed one to each person.

Everyone immediately began to read the document. Upon finishing, they couldn't help but gasp in astonishment.

This President Luo was indeed ruthless!

The incident was about Liang Wujun sending men to attack Xu Yang, but this document alleged that Xu Yang bullied the entrepreneurs of Fengcheng. It warned that if Liang Wujun were not released, all the entrepreneurs of Fengcheng would feel disheartened and might relocate their industries, plunging Fengcheng's economy back to its pre-reform state overnight.

In fact, if these entrepreneurs did as stated, that would indeed be the outcome.

Wang Tongshan, having read the document, couldn't help but nod repeatedly, "This Luo Hongwei has become increasingly sophisticated with his methods. We all sign this document and send it to the officials, to be relayed to the provincial authorities. I'd like to see if they dare to keep Liang Wujun detained or if they can withstand the consequences of not doing so!"

Everyone nodded in agreement.

All these entrepreneurs signing the document would make anyone weigh its impact carefully.

Just then, Zheng Kaiyang's cell phone rang.

He checked and realized it was his assistant calling, which made him furrow his brows.

These days, calls from his assistant were almost never good news.

Had there been another issue at the company?

Had Xu Yang made another move?

```

Impossible, right?

Thinking this, he picked up the phone, "What's wrong now?"

His assistant said anxiously, "Mr. Zheng, something big has happened; a lot of people have come!"

Zheng Kaiyang was instantly furious, "What do you mean a lot of people have come? Explain yourself clearly, why are there so many people again?"

What he couldn't bear to hear the most from his assistant was the phrase "something big has happened."

Every time he heard those four words, his heart would leap with fear.

If it weren't for his strong heart, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

The assistant immediately replied, "It's those elderly who bought our products; their children have returned and are blocking the entrance to the company. I've continued to issue refunds just as you instructed, but when they saw how slowly we were refunding, they became irate. Now, they are causing a ruckus!"

Even through the phone, he could hear the noise and shouting.

Clearly, the crowd was no longer comprised of the elderly, but energetic young or middle-aged people.

These people were certainly not as easy to fool as the old folks.

Moreover, the local customs in Fengcheng were notoriously tough; it was quite normal for disputes to escalate into physical confrontations.

If you tried to trick them as if they were fools, they'd dare to smash up your company.

If that didn't work, they would absolutely organize a protest, holding banners and complaining to the provincial city.

By then, nobody could stop them.

Not only would the company go bankrupt, but he would be finished too.

Zheng Kaiyang exclaimed in a mix of shock and anger, "What the hell is going on? Weren't those old folks' children working out of town? How did they all come back?"

The assistant said, "From what I've gathered, it seems someone found them, chartered planes and buses to bring them back, and even gave each person a daily stipend of five thousand yuan!"

"Damn it!" Zheng Kaiyang was shocked once again.

This must be Xu Yang's doing.

The children of those old people probably numbered around a thousand.

To charter planes and buses to bring back a thousand people and give each of them a daily stipend of five thousand yuan...

How much manpower, material resources, and financial resources would that take?

Xu Yang's moves were becoming increasingly ruthless.

This was a clear sign he wouldn't stop until he had completely destroyed him.

His assistant said anxiously, "Mr. Zheng, what should we do now? If we continue to issue refunds like before, it's definitely going to cause problems."

Zheng Kaiyang said with bitterness, "There's no choice, just arrange for the refunds to proceed as normal, I'll transfer money over to you shortly."

Hanging up the phone, Zheng Kaiyang immediately used his mobile to transfer all the cash from his personal account into the company's account.

That still wasn't enough; it would only last for a while, and he needed to find a way to borrow more money.

Moreover, after this incident, he knew the company was finished.

"Kaiyang, what's wrong?" Wang Tongshan noticed Zheng Kaiyang's grim expression after he hung up the phone and immediately inquired.

Zheng Kaiyang managed a wry smile and explained the situation.

Upon hearing this, everyone was stunned.

They quickly did the math in their heads.

Such a move and to pull off such things in such a short time.

Just the financial aspect alone represented an enormous sum.

The most critical aspect, the persuasion work, and the coordination of chartered planes and buses, seemed unimaginably difficult.

Yet, it was all accomplished.

It was terrifying just to think about it.

It also showed just how determined Xu Yang was to take down Zheng Kaiyang.
