Chapter 327 Driving People to a Dead End
Inside the finance department.
The CFO checked the online banking and confirmed that the stone factory's official accounts had indeed been frozen.
"Oh no, oh no."
Something terrible has happened.
"What, what should we do..."
The finance manager panicked.
Her subordinate whispered a reminder to her to call President Jiang immediately, as no one else could handle this except President Jiang.
The CFO immediately took out his phone and called Jiang Xiong.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang..."
At this time, Jiang Xiong was still in Huicheng, fishing on the rocks near the Golden Coast with Chen Wei and Chen Wei's bodyguard, A Gui, and others.
I was very unhappy when I answered the phone.
"Didn't I say to contact the vice president if there's anything?"
Without me, do you think you can't survive or what?
My brother keeps calling me every day.
What are you people good for?!
The finance manager, disregarding her own grievances, hurriedly explained, "President Jiang, something terrible has happened!"
Officials from the county came to our factory with a group of people.
Our account has been frozen!
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiong dropped his fishing rod and stood there stunned for a few seconds: "Who's leading the team?"
"It's Director Wu from the County Government Office."
Jiang Xiong blinked, looking somewhat lost. He swallowed hard and sat down on the rocks by the sea.
It was Wu Maocai.
That's it.
It seems Chen Dawei is about to make his move.
They themselves have taken the initiative to show their willingness to relocate the polluting enterprises.
Chen Dawei was still ungrateful.
This is driving Wansheng Group to its doom.
Jiang Xiong panicked and looked helplessly at Chen Wei, who was fishing not far away.
The guy was even laughing and showing off his fishing skills to the woman next to him.
"What did President Liao say?"
President Liao is the president of Yuanshan County Rural Commercial Bank.
At that time, Wansheng Group's corporate account was opened in this bank.
I was just greedy back then. They said they could waive the handling fees for things like salary payments and bank transfers.
Moreover, in terms of loan policy, this rural commercial bank offers lower interest rates than any other bank.
Jiang Xiong decided to cooperate with this bank.
The bank manager surnamed Liao had accepted quite a few gifts from Jiang Xiong.
How dare they freeze Wansheng Group's account like that?
And they didn't even give us a heads-up beforehand?
"Mr. Jiang, I haven't had a chance to call President Liao yet."
However, our online banking shows that the account is indeed frozen and the money in it cannot be accessed.
I think Liao must have known about it beforehand.
He didn't stop us, nor did he notify us, so I guess he's probably in grave danger.
General Manager Jiang!
What should we do?
The finance staff were on the verge of tears; they hadn't even received their own salaries yet.
"I'll hang up now, let me ask."
Jiang Xiong rudely hung up the phone and dialed the mobile phone of Liao, the branch manager of Yuanshan County Rural Commercial Bank.
Shutting down?
It seems we can't count on Liao Xing.
They were either controlled or they surrendered to Chen Dawei and his group.
Jiang Xiong was so angry he wanted to smash his phone.
Left with no other choice, they had to go find Chen Wei.
Chen Wei was standing behind a long-haired, sexy woman, reaching out from behind to grab her hands and swinging them away, teaching her how to fish.
"Wow, that's so far!" the woman exclaimed exaggeratedly. "Westbrook, you're so strong! You just flicked the bait so far!"
"Hehe, you're only just realizing how strong I am!"
Chen Wei grinned mischievously and nudged her with his waist.
"Haha~ Westbrook, you're so naughty~"
The two were having a great time when Jiang Xiong stood behind them, unable to say anything.
"Wei, Wei Shao..." Jiang Xiong called out softly.
Chen Wei and the woman didn't hear, and Chen Wei even hugged the woman.
This is Chen Wei's daily routine; he has never lacked women since he came of age.
"Westbrook!"
The situation was urgent, so Jiang Xiong had no choice but to shout again, this time much louder.
Hearing this, Chen Wei turned around impatiently and shouted irritably, "What's wrong!"
"Something's happened at the factory!"
"So many factories, which one are you talking about, and what's the matter? Can you tell me all at once?"
"A stone factory in our Yuanshan County ran into trouble. Their accounts were frozen, and when the finance department tried to pay salaries and lay off employees, they were stopped by county government officials..."
As Jiang Xiong spoke, his voice grew softer and softer.
Chen Wei angrily pushed the woman away from him and strode back to the seaside villa, where he sat down on the sofa in the living room.
Jiang Xiong followed behind, standing by the sofa.
"Anything else going on?"
"I don't have more information yet. I'll call the vice president right now and ask him to go to the factory to take a look."
"Attack!" Chen Wei suddenly shouted.
Jiang Xiong couldn't take it anymore, so he gritted his teeth and endured it, then went to call the vice president.
The line is always busy.
It took several tries to get through.
"General Manager Jiang..."
"What's going on at the factory?!" Jiang Xiong roared. "Weren't we supposed to get paid and laid off as soon as we got there? Why isn't it finished yet?"
The vice president gave a lengthy explanation.
They said there are a lot of things going on at the factory right now, and the main gate is sealed off; outsiders can only enter but not leave.
There were probably sixty or seventy police officers and auxiliary police officers who arrived.
There are also about forty or fifty people from other departments.
He was about to go home when he was called back by phone.
The original plan was to send it out in the morning.
However, the bank said they were too busy in the morning with system upgrades and such, so they rescheduled it for the afternoon.
I didn't expect my account to be frozen that afternoon.
Wu Maocai, who is now leading the team, explained that the factory was shut down to address several issues:
The first requirement is to ensure that wages are paid in full and that no deductions are allowed from employees' pay.
Secondly, the social security and other social insurance contributions of the employees must be made up for, based on the number of years they worked in the past.
Third, arrange for all employees to undergo medical examinations;
Fourth, and most troublesome, if a medical examination reveals a health problem, the hospital must fully pay for the employee's treatment costs, nutritional expenses, etc., after issuing a treatment plan.
Another issue is that tax and industry and commerce departments need to check the factory's past tax records and any complaints received from industry and commerce departments. They need to resolve all the historical issues before they will allow us to move.
Until these problems are resolved, the factory will be shut down indefinitely, will not be allowed to relocate, and its accounts will remain frozen until all issues are resolved.
"How can there be a situation where employee wages are deducted?"
Didn't I say to pay their wages and move them out as soon as possible?
Those people earn their money through hard work.
They don't pay for insurance regularly, and the working environment is poor, which is one thing.
You're still deducting money from my pay?
Isn't this driving people to their doom?!
Jiang Xiong was furious.
He's ruthless enough that he never even considered touching someone's salary.
The vice president said helplessly, "We'll have to deduct a little bit from it, no matter what."
This is standard practice.
Otherwise, where do the brothers get the money for their usual expenses and other shared costs?
They don't usually deduct much, so they don't dare to say anything.
This is just the last time I'll be paid.
I was thinking that if I deducted more this time, I wouldn't have another chance.
I was wrong.
I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang.
Jiang Xiong gritted his teeth in anger: "What good is 'sorry'?"
You were supposed to be problem solvers, but now you've become problem creators.
"Wait until I have some free time, then I'll see how I deal with you."
The vice president panicked: "I was wrong, President Jiang. This is not my fault. I haven't spent the money that was deducted before."
Well... it's all because your relatives spent the majority of the money.
What can I do?
"They're all your people, how could I dare offend them?"
Jiang Xiong rubbed his face, speechless.
After hanging up the phone, I reported the matter to Chen Wei.
After listening, Chen Wei remained silent for a long time: "The Discipline Inspection Commission hasn't taken any action?"
