Chapter 481 I was actually scammed

She is truly outstanding, as always!
Gong Guodong recalled his first meeting with Jiang Tang and suddenly realized that many years had passed.

Four years ago, during the time she was missing, no one knew that besides Lu Changzheng having sleepless nights, he also didn't get many full nights of sleep.

When he wakes up in the middle of the night, he always dreams of her standing in front of him, shielding him from the black bear's attack.

However, the situation in dreams is different from reality.

In her dream, she was torn in two by a black bear, which fell in front of her...

Gong Guodong was repeatedly awakened by such nightmares.

During that time, he even felt that he was terminally ill and about to die? That's why he had these bizarre dreams...

It wasn't until Jiang Tang returned that he was finally freed from that nightmare...

"Comrade Jiang, where are you headed?"

Gong Guodong asked Jiang Tang.

Jiang Tang stared straight ahead.

"station."

"Oh, that's perfect, I'm also going to the station, we can go together."

As for where Gong Guodong was going to the train station, he didn't say.

Jiang Tang nodded slowly.

It's good that we can get all the way to the station.

Although her expression wasn't particularly serious, it was obvious to anyone else that she wasn't in high spirits.

Therefore, after a brief conversation with Jiang Tang, Gong Guodong remained silent.

The other people in the back seats didn't say anything either.

They arrived at the station in about forty minutes.

After getting off the bus, Zhu Wei immediately said that he would go buy a ticket himself.

Jiang Tang and Xiang Qiufang lagged behind.

The two thanked Gong Guodong.

Gong Guodong smiled and said, "It's nothing, just a small favor."

The young soldier who was responsible for driving Gong Guodong out saw a smile on the regimental commander's face for the first time.

This was also the first time I had seen the team leader so relaxed.

A short while later, Zhu Wei returned with three train tickets.

"Section Chief, Team Leader Xiang, our car is about to leave, let's hurry over."

Zhu Wei bought a ticket for the next available bus.

Jiang Tang nodded. "Okay."

The three of them took their tickets, found their assigned vehicle, and boarded the train.

After waiting for five minutes, the old vehicle started up, and the smell of gasoline filled the entire car.

With a humming roar from the engine, the vehicle left the station.

Jiang Tang and her group were positioned towards the back of the vehicle.

She sat with Xiang Qiufang.

Zhu Wei sat in the seat next to them.

Besides them, there were many other passengers inside the vehicle, which was crammed with all sorts of luggage, chickens, ducks, and other things. The air was stuffy and smelled bad.

Jiang Tang asked Xiang Qiufang to open the car window, and the wind outside blew in, dispersing the stale air inside.

It takes five hours to get from their city to the industrial zone in the neighboring city.

It takes four hours to get between the two stations. Once you get to the station, you have to take a bus for another hour, a bumpy ride to the industrial area, by which time the other factory is about to close.

The three men stepped forward and explained their purpose.

The old man at the gatehouse looked at them with some suspicion when he heard they were from the next city. "What are you doing here?"

"Is your manager here? We're here to see your manager."

"The boss? The boss is long gone!"

The old man said in a drawn-out voice, "Our factory is about to go bankrupt; the leaders have long since fled."

That's why he was so puzzled when he heard that the three of them had come to see the leader.

Jiang Tang frowned deeply. "The leader ran away?"

"The factory went out of business?"

Xiang Qiufang was also shocked!

Zhu Wei, who was standing nearby, was even more shocked. He rushed forward and asked the old man urgently, "How is this possible? Are you kidding me?"

"How could such a large factory just go bankrupt like that?" "What's impossible about it?"

The old man wasn't surprised. "No business for months, won't you go out of business?"

"..."

No business?

Jiang Tang frowned even more deeply, "Has your factory had no business for months?"

"That's right. Our factory is an old factory. When the state-owned enterprises were converted to private enterprises a few years ago, we barely managed to stay afloat. We thought we could hold on, but the situation has been getting worse and worse in recent years. Last year, we were often only able to operate for a few days and then stop for ten days or half a month."

The old man's voice was filled with sighs and emotions as he spoke.

Who would have thought that what was once the most glorious factory in the area now only has a few workers left?

As for the leadership?

They've long since disappeared.

Zhu Wei was now truly anxious.

"Where is Manager Chen? Where is he?"

"Manager Chen? What Manager Chen?"

The old man looked at Zhu Wei with suspicion, "We only have one person here with the surname Chen, but he's not the manager."

"What is your name?"

Zhu Wei pressed for an answer.

The old man replied blankly, "Chen Yaozu! When his parents named him that, they always hoped he would bring honor to the family, but alas, a person can't just bring honor to their family by having a name."

On the contrary, this Chen Yaozu is a swindler and cheater who does all sorts of things.

The factory didn't fire him because his grandfather and father were both long-time employees of the factory.

He covered both of their shifts, and the factory, out of consideration for their past relationship, couldn't fire him...

After hearing this, what else did the three of them not understand?
It turns out their supplier wasn't a real supplier at all!

"Congratulations, Team Leader."

Jiang Tang looked at Zhu Wei, "Didn't you say that the partners have been cooperating for a long time?"

Zhu Wei's face was pale, and large beads of sweat rolled down his forehead.

This truly illustrates what it means to be utterly despondent!

"What, how is it possible?"

"How could there not be such a person?"

Zhu Wei shook his head as he muttered to himself.

He couldn't believe he'd been scammed, and so badly at that.

Xiang Qiufang glanced at Zhu Wei, then at Jiang Tang.

Honestly, before they came, they had considered a million possibilities, but never this one.

"Section Chief, what should we do?"

Xiang Qiufang looked at Jiang Tang.

Her eyes and face were filled with worry and anxiety.

If the other party is a legitimate business, then they can pursue its responsibility through normal procedures.

But now it's clear that the other party never shipped anything to them.

All their goods were defective products obtained from an imposter, from who-knows-where...

"Can we go in and have a look?"

Jiang Tang asked the old man at the door.

The old man also noticed that something was wrong with the three of them. After thinking for a moment, he nodded.

"can."

"But I'll take you inside."

Although the factory is about to close down, the old man is still on duty and can't let strangers into the factory.

Jiang Tang nodded, forcing a smile, "Thank you, sir."

"Hey, it's nothing, I'll just take you on a tour, it's no big deal."

The old man was quite agreeable.

After saying that, he asked again, "Judging from your expressions, you weren't all fooled by that bastard Chen Yaozu, were you?"

"Hey, let me tell you, that kid has a silver tongue, he can talk a good game, he can even bring the dead back to life with his words, so you mustn't fall for his tricks!"
