29: 2500 dollars? You are such a rich man! You are worthy of it!

Lu Shenwei rushed to the office in a hurry and found several executives, including Ma Quanlin, Wang Zizhong, and Zhao Tieniu, all present.

"What's going on?"

Ma Quanlin looked at the Finance Officer: "You tell him."

"It's like this, the funds from Desert Camel Company arrived this morning, and they paid in full."

"Isn't that a good thing? Is there a problem? 25 million."

"The amount is fine, but the currency unit is wrong."

"What do you mean the currency unit is wrong? Don't tell me they used Zimbabwean dollars?"

"No, they paid in USD! 25 million USD!"

Hiss—

Lu Shenwei gasped, suddenly realizing: no wonder they said 5,000 longxia currency was expensive yesterday; it turns out they thought it was in USD.

"Are we in breach of contract in this situation?"

"Both parties expressed their true intentions, so we are not in breach of contract," the Finance Officer mused.

"That's good. Since those big spenders are so generous, we can't be stingy either. Send them another 100 units."

You big spenders certainly understand technology. Once Julong Steel has money, we will definitely lower the prices to show our gratitude.

"You're pretty good. Which school did you graduate from?"

"Tilanchao," the Finance Officer said in a low voice.

"Tilanchao? Is there such a finance university in Longxia?"

Lu Shenwei was puzzled, but Ma Quanlin walked over and whispered: "Tilanchao is a prison, specifically for accountants who committed economic crimes."

"Uh, then why is he in our factory?"

"It's because of the previous factory manager; he took the fall for the factory."

"Oh, I see. Then let's keep a low profile."

Julong Steel will not mistreat anyone who has contributed, especially those who have taken the fall for the factory.

Longying Drone got off to a flying start, and the whole factory was immersed in joy, except for Wang Zizhong.

It wasn't that he wasn't happy, but the pressure he was under far outweighed the joy.

The Longying Drone project was a success, but the Lynx agricultural vehicle he was leading was still nowhere to be seen.

He had bragged back then that he would master the blueprints in two or three weeks and complete the tractor production line modification within a month.

But now he had only completed the first step. He had mastered the blueprints, but how would he solve the process adjustments?

He had been leading four hundred people to study it for over a month, but the progress was too difficult.

At night, Qinchuan City was brightly lit.

Wang Zizhong brought two bottles of good wine to find Ma Quanlin: "Old Ma, do you think if I apply to the Chairman for 3 million in funds to modify the production line right now, he will think I'm a coward?"

"You underestimate the Chairman. He came to me at noon, wanting to approve 5 million for you to modify the tractor production line, but he was afraid you were under too much pressure."

Ma Quanlin peeled a peanut and tossed it into his mouth.

Wang Zizhong stood up excitedly: "Did the Chairman really say that?"

He wasn't Lu Shenwei's direct subordinate like Ma Quanlin. If he wanted to hold his head high with his fellow workers from the tractor factory at Julong Steel, he had to achieve results.

"If you don't believe me, go apply for 5 million in production line modification funds from the Finance Officer tomorrow; he will definitely give it to you."

Ma Quanlin said casually, and Wang Zizhong raised his baijiu glass: "Brother!"

"Don't, I call you brother; we can't mess up the seniority."

"Enough said, it's all in the drink."

Early the next morning, Wang Zizhong withdrew 3 million in cash from the Finance Officer and went to modify the production line with great ambition.

"Little Lu, do you think Old Wang can pull it off?" Ma Quanlin muttered.

Lu Shenwei smiled: "I believe that human effort can achieve anything. With Uncle Wang putting in so much effort, how could he not come up with something?"

"That's true, Wang Zizhong is quite proud."

Sales of the Longying Drone are not a big problem now; just slowly opening up the domestic market will do.

The Lynx agricultural vehicle is also starting to take shape, so there's no need for me to worry too much.

Lu Shenwei sorted out his thoughts; the next step was time to settle scores and air grievances.

Green View Real Estate! Liu Jiujian!

Our account is not settled yet!

At the Qinchuan Administration for Industry and Commerce, Zhou Wen was greatly disappointed while looking at the situation reports submitted by various steel mills.

"Qinchuan Jingang Group, incompetent!"

"Qinchuan Iron Mine Group, unable to help themselves!"

"Qinchuan Songshan Steel, insufficient capability... Is this thing really so hard to handle?"

Zhou Wen had a massive headache. When he promised Li Fohai, he thought he would succeed immediately, but it turns out this is a tough nut to crack.

"Director, even the Navy hasn't figured anything out, should we just take a break?"

"Don't you want to advance? You have no ambition!"

"I do want to advance, but you're not moving from your spot."

"If we manage to develop the arresting cable, won't I be able to move up? Stupid!"

"If I weren't stupid, how would you be the Director?"

"You brat, you just have a sharp tongue!"

Zhou Wen scolded with a smile. Huang Liang had a flash of inspiration: "Director, what if we ask Julong Steel to research this thing?"

"Julong Steel? Forget it. The steel cables they produce themselves are just gathering dust in the warehouse. What could they possibly research?"

Zhou Wen rolled his eyes at Huang Liang, and the latter looked thoughtful.

"That's true."

Julong Steel's steel cables can't even be sold; the quality is probably just so-so.

"Report to the General Administration in half a month that the Qinchuan steel industry cannot produce what they want," Zhou Wen said helplessly.

Huang Liang nodded, then immediately asked: "By the way, Director, how were Zhao Qinkun and Liu Jiujian finally dealt with?"

"I get angry just thinking about it. Didn't they break your head when they were interrogating you that day? But after the provincial inspection department finished investigating, they insisted you bumped it yourself."

Zhou Wen's face was dark. His subordinate had been beaten, and he was determined to vent this anger.

"Don't worry, I will report it to the General Administration; this loss cannot be in vain!"

"Director, that was actually really me bumping it myself."

"Hmm? You bumped it yourself? No, it was them forcing you to bump it. Remember that, otherwise how can I commend you at the end of the year?"

"This? Understood, Director, you are wise."

Director Zhou is indeed thoughtful, Huang Liang thought complacently.

Zhou Wen added: "Zhao Qinkun has been suspended from work, and the two inspectors who interrogated us at the time have also been transferred from their posts and suspended for reflection."

"What about Liu Jiujian? How is that old guy doing?" Huang Liang pressed.

Without Liu Jiujian's real-name report, all these troublesome things wouldn't have happened.

"Suspected of tax evasion, our bureau, the tax bureau, and the inspection bureau are handling it jointly. That will be enough to make that old guy suffer."

"Director, I heard that there is a shadow of a Japanese company behind Liu Jiujian's Green View Real Estate."

"I heard that too, but Liu Jiujian is stubborn as a mule and determined not to tell the truth."

Liu Jiujian volunteered to take all the blame, and Zhou Wen and the others couldn't do anything about it, but that didn't mean Lu Shenwei couldn't.

"Have you clearly noted down the matter of suing Green View Real Estate?" Lu Shenwei said to the company's legal counsel.

The legal counsel nodded, and Lu Shenwei added: "Also, include the big influencers on short video platforms who are stirring up trouble; sue them all."

"Jimu Subao, Santian Liangeng, Nongfu Shanzei, and so on. I calculated that there are about 130 people."

The legal counsel frowned: "So many? The workload is not small."

"For every successful lawsuit, I will reward you 10,000, and there will be a big bonus after winning the case!"
