Reborn in 1979: I Raised a Fortune with Four Daughters

Chapter 94 Something's Going to Happen

Both lawyers went to revise the contract. Zhao Yuan reminded the staff to make sure to include the free gift of 200 tons of catalytic enzyme in the contract, and to provide 10 times the compensation for the wrong shipment.

After waiting in the conference room for a while, both parties signed a new contract and agreed on a delivery deadline.

After signing the agreement, everyone shook hands politely.

"Mr. Powell, please stay for dinner."

Director Lei politely extended an invitation to Powell.

"Thank you, but we have other things to do and need to get to another city as soon as possible."

Powell politely declined.

In the evening, the Bingcheng Fertilizer Plant held a celebratory banquet at the Bingcheng State-run Hotel.

Everyone in the factory cheered for what happened today.

Secretary Duan Hai is a very responsible leader.

Since the incident at the Huzhou chemical plant, Secretary Duan Hai has asked a lawyer classmate of his in the United States to learn more about Powell's company.

Powell's company mainly exports instruments and reagents to some underdeveloped countries. Presumably, what happened today is not unique to us, but also happens frequently in other countries. They can be said to be making a fortune. Therefore, Secretary Duan Hai was certain that the other party would agree to his conditions, so he dared to set them.

Of course, if you don't understand the other party's company and ask for an exorbitant amount, the other party may declare bankruptcy if they cannot afford it, and you may not even be able to get your deposit back.

Everyone enjoyed the celebratory dinner.

Everyone kept toasting Zhao Yuan, thanking him for discovering crucial evidence and for securing an additional 200 tons of catalytic enzymes.

"Secretary Duan, Director Lei, and fellow brothers, I really can't hold my liquor. I have to catch a flight tomorrow morning, so I shouldn't drink too much today. I'm truly sorry, but I appreciate everyone's kind intentions."

Zhao Yuan kept making excuses, but he couldn't withstand the power of the entire factory. In the end, he could only pretend to be drunk to escape.

Two staff members escorted Zhao Yuan back to the guesthouse.

After the staff took Zhaoyuan back to the guesthouse, Zhaoyuan washed up and prepared to go to sleep, but he suddenly felt inexplicably uneasy.

Because of previous similar incidents, he now has a strong sixth sense: something is about to happen, and he has a strong feeling that danger is imminent.

Having already taken a nap in the afternoon, coupled with the sudden surge of unease in his heart, Zhao Yuan instantly sobered up. After thinking it over, he decided to pretend to be drunk and fast asleep.

In the middle of the night, he heard faint footsteps outside, so he quietly got up, grabbed the kettle, and hid in the bathroom.

The sound of a lock turning came from the doorway, and soon a mysterious person slipped in, holding a knife, and quietly walked towards the bed.

Zhao Yuan was extremely nervous, but he quickly calmed down and, taking advantage of the other party's inattention, raised the thermos and smashed it heavily on the back of the man in black's head.

The thermos broke, and boiling water flowed down the back of the man's head, scalding him so much that he screamed in pain.

In the brief moment of hesitation, Zhao Yuan swiftly kicked the knife out of the man's hand and smashed the thermos against the back of his head again. As the man struggled to retrieve the knife, Zhao Yuan yelled, "Help! Help!"

He then tripped the other person with his leg, and with a backhand, pressed his body firmly against the other person, subduing him. The other person lay on the ground unable to move.

Zhao Yuan continued shouting:

"Help! Call the police immediately!"

Upon hearing Zhao Yuan's cries for help, the guesthouse staff first called 110 to report the incident.

The patrol team patrolling the factory heard the cries for help and quickly ran towards the guesthouse.

Soon the waiter opened the door and saw Zhao Yuan with a person in pain on his back.

Several burly men from the patrol team stepped forward to help subdue the mysterious man, who was not from the factory.

Soon, sirens sounded outside, and a police car pulled up to the guesthouse. The police officers got out and ran upstairs.

Three police officers arrived, and as soon as they went upstairs, they handcuffed the mysterious man.

At this moment, Director Lei Jianjun, Secretary Duan Hai, the head of the security department of the fertilizer plant, and a group of others arrived at the guesthouse.

The police sealed off the room, collected some basic evidence, and prepared to take the suspect and Zhao Yuan and the others back to the police station to give statements.

Then the sound of police sirens came from downstairs again. A burly middle-aged man stepped out of the police car; he had a typical northern physique and exuded an air of authority.

"Director Liu, it's so late and I'm sorry to trouble you to come all this way in person. It's really a special situation."

Secretary Duan Hai and Factory Director Lei Jianjun went to greet them.

"This is Comrade Zhaoyuan. He has apprehended the suspect. Thank goodness, no irreparable damage has occurred, otherwise we in Bingcheng would have no way to explain this to our superiors."

Secretary Duan Hai said.

"Comrade Zhaoyuan, well done! Continue to cordon off the crime scene and collect evidence. Let's go to the station together."

Director Liu glanced at Zhao Yuan with an approving look, then looked at the police officers who were collecting evidence.

After giving a few instructions, he told everyone to go back to the police station together.

So everyone followed the police car back to the police station.

Upon returning to the police station, a group of people quickly conducted a surprise interrogation of the suspect overnight.

A group of people began taking statements from people including Zhao Yuan, waiters, and patrolmen.

After an overnight interrogation of the suspects, the police uncovered a much larger conspiracy: a US-infiltrated intelligence organization in my country, whose involvement with trillions of dollars had caused significant losses to US companies on two separate occasions.

Therefore, the United States decided to assassinate the trillionaire to prevent greater losses to American companies in the future.

The Harbin Police Department quickly established a special task force to investigate US intelligence organizations.

It was already past midnight when I got back to the guesthouse from the police station.

Zhao Yuan was so tired that he went straight to sleep.

The next day, someone knocked on the door. Zhao Yuan got up and opened the door, only to find Secretary Duan Hai and Factory Director Lei Jianjun.

"Zhaoyuan, we apologize for disturbing you. You've had a tough time and were quite frightened this time. We sincerely apologize. You have to catch a flight later, so we came to have breakfast with you. After breakfast, we'll take you to the airport. Someone has been arranged to pick you up in Huzhou."

Secretary Duan said.

"Okay, wait for me a moment, I'll wash up and then I'll leave."

Zhao Yuan got up quickly, washed up, and left the guesthouse with Secretary Duan Hai and Factory Director Lei Jianjun.

Everyone went to a private room in the factory canteen, where Wu Ping from the office had already ordered breakfast.

Everyone sat down together and began to eat breakfast.

"Comrade Zhaoyuan, this time it was a bit rushed. Next time we will definitely stay for a few more days so that we can do our best to be good hosts."

Secretary Duan said.

"Thankfully, yesterday's incident ended without serious consequences. I don't even want to think about the potential repercussions. I'm so sorry to have given you such a fright. We will definitely strengthen the security measures at the guesthouse."

Secretary Duan continued.
