Chapter 1931: Chapter 1931

Jiang Heng’s idea was simple: make the situation bigger and coordinate with other matters to make Song Guanchao think it was Wei Zejun manipulating things behind the scenes.

This seems easy to say but is quite challenging to execute.

Actually, Jiang Heng could have been more obvious, and it would have been more effective.

But he didn’t dare to be too aggressive; Wei Zejun isn’t an idiot, and if he detects his little tricks, the consequences could be severe.

Anyway, hit and miss; if it works, great, if not, then let it be.

After calling the police, he returned to the car: "Drive in."

Looking at the human barricade at the gate, the driver hesitated: "We might not get in; should we try another gate?"

Jiang Heng said: "Other gates aren’t open; let’s go through this gate. Try it first; if we can’t get in, then we’ll see."

The industrial park has several entrances, but since few companies have moved in in recent years, opening more gates would mean hiring more security guards.

To save manpower costs, currently, only the main gate is open for entry and exit.

The driver slowly pressed the gas pedal, and the car moved leisurely towards the main gate.

The owners noticed the car; no one tried to stop it.

Their goal was to block the city government leaders. Going in is fine, but coming out is a problem.

The car smoothly entered the industrial park and soon arrived at an office building.

He told the driver to wait in the car while he walked into the office building.

Coming out of the elevator, he adjusted his collar and walked into the company on that floor.

The automatic glass door opened, and Jiang Heng ignored the receptionist who was about to inquire, skillfully finding the chairman’s office.

He didn’t even knock but grabbed the handle and pushed the door open.

Behind the desk was a man in his forties or fifties. Hearing the door open, he immediately looked up, and upon seeing Jiang Heng, his expression changed but quickly switched to a smile and warmly came around the desk, extending his hand from afar: "Young Master Jiang, what brings you here."

Jiang Heng put on a smile, shook his hand, then sat down, crossed his legs, and said: "Chairman Wang, have you thought about what I mentioned last time?"

Chairman Wang thought things were resolved when Song Guanchao stepped in last time; he didn’t expect Jiang Heng to come again.

Facing his inquiry, Chairman Wang didn’t dare to shut it down completely, especially since Jiang Heng didn’t even respect Song Guanchao’s influence, indicating he’s a local tyrant in Jiangzhou.

And he’s just an ordinary small businessman, not daring to offend him.

So he verbally placated him, planning to appease him and then find Song Guanchao.

Jiang Heng was no longer patient like last time. Seeing him making excuses, he raised his eyebrow and said: "Even Zhuge Liang only had to be invited to the thatched cottage three times; why, are you higher than the prime minister?"

"Young Master Jiang, my order contract is for five years, and it’s not expired yet. It’s hard to change suppliers." Chairman Wang was also nearing fifty, facing the thirty-year-old Jiang Heng, not daring to say a single heavy word, feeling humble and aggrieved.

Jiang Heng’s smile vanished instantly, looking at him coldly: "If it’s not expired, terminate the contract. Whatever the compensation is, I’ll cover it. Chairman Wang, am I not sincere enough?"

His words blocked further conversation, leaving Chairman Wang without excuses to refuse.

"I see, I see, Young Master Jiang’s sincerity is evident. How about you come back later; I’ll find time to meet with the supplier and discuss it thoroughly."

"No need to find time, make the call now."

"Young Master Jiang..."

"Chairman Wang, don’t play mind games with me, and don’t think approaching Director Song will be useful; he’s unable to protect himself right now."

Jiang Heng uncrossed his legs and stood up, saying: "Next time we meet, I hope you have the contract ready."

He turned and left. Just as he stepped out of the office, his phone rang.

Standing at the doorway, he took out his phone: "Oh? The police are here? Haha, that’s good, make the situation even bigger. If it doesn’t get big enough, how can Director Song feel the pressure?"

Chairman Wang didn’t understand what Jiang Heng meant by this but could guess that Jiang Heng seemed to have done something targeting Song Guanchao.

Once Jiang Heng left the company, Chairman Wang immediately called Song Guanchao.

"Hello, Director Song... That Young Master Jiang just came to see me again."

"Jiang Heng?"

"Yes, it’s him." Chairman Wang said: "It’s still about the supplier; I’m under great pressure here."

"Don’t feel pressured; I’ll resolve the matter completely in the next two days."

"Thank you, Director Song."

Although encountering such matters was disheartening, Director Song’s responsible attitude left him hopeful and expectant about Jiangzhou’s business environment.

Suddenly, he thought of the call Jiang Heng answered as he left, hesitated a bit but decided to tell Song Guanchao: "Director Song, when Young Master Jiang left, he took a call, and I heard some conversation that seemed related to you."

Related to me?

"What did he say?"

"He said the police are here and that they should make the situation bigger to make you feel pressured."

He didn’t embellish the words and told Song Guanchao verbatim the few key statements he heard.

"I understand." Song Guanchao didn’t immediately grasp the meaning of these words or what Jiang Heng was up to.

After he hung up the phone, it rang again; this time it was Vice District Chief Wang calling.

"Director Song, the situation has escalated. You better come over." Vice District Chief Wang’s tone was very urgent.

"What happened?"

"The police are here, and the owners are very agitated. The situation is a bit out of control." Vice District Chief Wang clutched his phone, looking at the owners cursing and pressing forward, and the police who seemed ready to act, his palms sweating.

"Who called the police?" Song Guanchao got angry too. He hadn’t instructed it, but are you pigs?

Can you call the police in this situation?

Having the police here will only anger the owners and intensify the conflict!

In his view, it’s not a big deal if owners display banners.

Moreover, he had given clear instructions to appease them and bring them to the City Government; after finishing his work, he would go over to coordinate and handle things.

Such a small matter was botched by Vice District Chief Wang; his ability is exceedingly weak.

"I don’t know." Vice District Chief Wang felt wronged; he hadn’t called the police, but they came regardless.

Moreover, this bunch of police officers were fools too, coming in with a hard stance, telling owners to put away their banners and stop causing trouble.

He had almost calmed the owners, but the police messed things up and ignited them.

Now it’s chaos; the owners are noisy, and the leading police also consider them a bunch of troublemakers; both sides could act at any time.

If action is taken, the situation will be irreparable.

"I’m coming over; control the scene for me!"

"I... beep beep..."

Song Guanchao hung up the phone, instructed Zhou Xingjian a few things, then chatted happily with Mr. He a bit, found an excuse, and headed to the parking lot.

The industrial park is too big; there’s quite a distance to the gate, so he needs to drive.

He ran all the way to the parking lot, got into the car, and headed towards the gate.

On the way, he thought of the words from Chairman Wang’s call.

"The police are here""Make the situation bigger"...

These words had such clear implications that even a fool could connect them to the owners with banners and the sudden appearance of police.

"Wei Zejun!" Song Guanchao felt furious.

Jiang Heng was just a pawn; the outside situation is definitely Wei Zejun’s masterpiece.

In that case, the setup last night must have been orchestrated by Wei Zejun too.

He regretted suspecting Zhou Zheng.

This time, Zhou Zheng was wronged.

He suppressed his anger; now is not the time to be upset. Solve the current situation first, and then slowly settle things with Wei Zejun.
