Chapter 443: Chapter 443: Someone Has Taken Over An Army

Yu Shuisheng’s kick landed with satisfying force.

And the repercussions were felt directly by Yu Jingting.

After losing face to Yu Shuisheng, Yang Jinhuan immediately went crying to her brother-in-law, Shen Guofu, who was Shen Liangyin’s father.

Shen Guofu was a moderately high-ranking official who just happened to oversee factories like the ones Yu Jingting and Shen Liangyin ran - the kinds that manufactured food products.

Shen Guofu decided to flex his power on Yu Jingting by ordering him to halt several of his production lines immediately - there would be no more carbonated drink manufacturing, only beer.

His reasoning was sound: the factory was not officially cleared to manufacture carbonated beverages to begin with; that had been something Yu Jingting had started on his own initiative.

When the news broke, it came as a catastrophic blow to the newly profitable brewery.

The factory had orders lined up till next year and the workers were pulling triple shifts. The sudden halt brought everything to a standstill.

"If they dont allow us to make drinks, does that mean we can’t make ice cream either?" Suizi asked.

Yu Jingting shrugged; it definitely meant they couldn’t.

The recipes from Su Zhe’s side were set, with three flavors of new ice creames, and if they could continue production, they would definitely be hit-sellers.

"Isn’t this just someone being an idiot? A factory that was on the brink of bankruptcy and couldn’t pay its workers wage if not for Tiegen is finally doing well, and now they decided to cause another problems? Where were they when the workers were starving?"

Upon hearing Yu Jingting’s words, Wang Cuihua also found herself getting angry.

"For some people, as long as they aren’t the ones going hungry, it doesn’t matter who is. A little power and they think they can lord over everyone else."

Listening to this made Suizi very angry too.

But apart from expressing her anger verbally, there was really nothing she could do about it.

It was impossible for her to start on her own at this stage, private businesses didn’t stand a chance.

The purpose of the other side’s actions was also clear, they wanted to suppress Yu Jingting.

After Yu Shuisheng kicked Yang Jinhuan, the Shen family used their tactics against Yu Jingting. If he wanted to keep his position, he would have to go apologize.

As they were talking, people from outside started coming in.

A number of factory workers had come looking for him. There were more than a dozen people, filling the Courtyard.

They all came to find out what was going on with Yu Jingting.

"Factory Director, why do we suddenly get a holiday?"

"It’s just for machine maintenance. Don’t worry, just think of it as a day off," Suizi stepped in to divert attention.

"Can we go back to work normally tomorrow?" The crowd kept asking.

Suizi fell silent.

This matter couldn’t be kept under wraps.

Even if they can go to work tomorrow, they can’t continue to produce drinks.

If only beer is made, the workers can guess that something has happened.

"Everyone, go home. Regardless of whether we can work in the future, the year-end bonuses and things we promised everyone will be given. Even if I have to pay out of pocket, I will honor my promise."

Yu Jingting began to speak.

"Director, don’t lie to us. We’ve all heard about it. The matter is Ice Cream Factory woman who’s envious of our operation. You just give the order and we’ll teach the Ice Cream Factory a lesson!"

Someone shouted.

The crowd chorused in agreement.

Yu Jingting was a leader with great personal charm. He had the ability to lead a group of street ruffians while in the village.

After moving to the city and becoming a small leader, he also got along well with the young people in the factory.

Although his tenure was not long, and he usually carried a cigarette and was a little cocky, everyone at the factory respected him.

This was because when the factory was on the brink of collapse, he stepped up and led everyone to collect debts in an unimaginable way, and then got the factory running again.

Although he often disappeared without a trace - in reality, he was out fishing with his wife.

But when it came to business, Yu Jingting was really efficient.

Moreover, he had a super ability - any problem that seemed difficult to others could be easily handled by him.

Because Yu Jingting was always laid back, dealing with problems seemed incredibly relaxed to others.

Many people would feel a sense of "I could do this too" when they saw him handling problems.

But things that Yu Jingting could manage would become big problems in others’ hands.

Bad debts that the old factory director couldn’t figure out for over ten years, Yu Jingting managed to settle it within a week.

Yu Jingting’s reputation was built in this way.

The workers felt secure with him around.

When a problem arises, the first thing these people think of is to find Yu Jingting for discussion.

"Director, as long as you give the order, we’ll all follow you. Let’s fight them!"

"Yes, we’re not afraid of them!"

The crowd was excited.

Yu Jingting waved his hand, indicating everyone to calm down.

"If beating people up would solve the problem, why would you guys need to do anything?"

The crowd fell silent.

Suizi felt relieved.

Wang Cuihua wiped her eyes; she felt a mix of satisfaction and sorrow for her son’s maturity.

But why was her son being so mistreated--it was so frustrating to think about.

"Tiegen is probably planning a sneak attack," Yu Shuisheng stroked his chin and analyzed after a few seconds.

The moment Wang Cuihua heard this, her spirits rose and she no longer wiped her tears.

"Only an idiot would announce a sneak attack ahead of time," Yu Shuisheng continued to provide live commentary for his wife.

"I’ve got the factory stuff figured out, everyone go home and wait for news. The sky isn’t falling."

It only took Yu Jingting a few sentences to take control of the situation. Although in the end there wasn’t a concrete solution, the workers were uplifted as if they had received a battle charge.

As soon as Yu Jingting sent the workers away, his expression changed from laughter to one of seriousness. He sat on a chair, tapping the table with one finger.

Suizi knew that he was brooding, so she took their daughter and placed her in his arms.

Yu Jingting loves the boy and girl twins equally without any favoritism.

But calming people down is something their daughter is good at.

As expected, their darling girl, upon being held by her father, wrapped her small arms around Yu Jingting’s neck and began to plant a flurry of kisses on his face.

Who could stay angry after that?

Half of the fierce look in Yu Jingting’s eyes melted away under the flurry of his daughter’s affection, and his gaze softened considerably.

"If you’re still mad, I’ll go get our son. He can gnaw on you a few times," Suizi offered.

The son would bite - literally.

If Yu Jingting took off his shirt, there would be a line of purple and green marks on his shoulder.

All made by his chubby son.

The little guy is teething and whenever his gums itch, he starts biting and is picky about his targets.

When his grandmother, mother, and aunt carried him, he would be as quiet as a plump rabbit, not moving a muscle.

But when his grandfather and father held him, he would not hold back.

As Yu Jingting heard this, his head shook like a bobblehead and he stopped emanating an unpleasant aura.

Even a bigshot in society would have to tone it down in the face of their son’s little teeth; no anger can withstand a good gnawing.

"What’s our next move? Do we really have to apologize to them?" Wang Cuihua asked.
