Chapter 291: Chapter 292 Self-Directed and Self-Acted

Minister Zhang’s eyes were ice cold, his face frosted over, an aura of chill emanating from him that involuntarily instilled fear in others.

Vice Factory Director Qian continued to speak, completely oblivious to the change in Minister Zhang’s expression.

"Minister Zhang, Mr. Sun actually did such a thing, you must punish him severely."

Vice Factory Director Qian prattled on, while another factory director beside him glared at him with a face full of rage, looking as if he wished he could swallow him whole.

Minister Zhang simply watched quietly as Vice Factory Director Qian put on his exquisite performance.

Only when it became eerily silent in the room did Vice Factory Director Qian close his mouth and look feebly at Minister Zhang.

Minister Zhang glanced at him, "Are you done?"

Vice Factory Director Qian nodded quickly like a pecking chicken, "Yes, I’m done."

Seeing this, Minister Zhang pulled out several envelopes and asked Vice Factory Director Qian, "Do these look familiar to you?"

Vice Factory Director Qian thought it was the factory director from Shanghai acting according to plan, so he shook his head, "I don’t know!"

Then he seemed to have an epiphany, "Could this be the evidence of Mr. Sun colluding with other factory directors?"

Director Zhang scoffed at these words and slammed his hand on the table, exclaiming furiously, "Mr. Qian, at this point, you’re still putting on an act for me. Do you really not know who wrote these letters?"

Vice Factory Director Qian was startled, and quickly looked towards the Shanghai factory director.

The Shanghai factory director, with a face full of anger, quickly walked up to him, grabbed his collar with one hand, "Mr. Qian you son of a bitch, cough up the money you took from me. You deceived me with two blank sheets of paper, where’s the formula you promised?"

Everyone else understood what was happening upon hearing this.

Their looks towards Vice Factory Director Qian turned to disgust, appalled that he had orchestrated and acted out this whole drama himself.

Mr. Liu, who had just been speaking on behalf of Vice Factory Director Qian, immediately panicked.

He turned to Mr. Sun to plead, "Mr. Sun, I’m sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn’t have wronged you just now. It’s just that Vice Factory Director Qian was so convincing, and I was too anxious, which is why I misunderstood you."

Mr. Sun gave him a dismissive glance, "It’s fine, I’ve said it before: the innocent have nothing to fear."

Mr. Liu, thinking the matter was resolved, breathed a sigh of relief.

But to his surprise, moments later, Xu Ying came in with several notebooks, handing them directly to Minister Zhang, "Minister Zhang, these are the results of Mr. Sun’s investigation into the dealings of Vice Factory Director Qian over the years. Using his position, he was involved in corruption, bribery, and collusion within the factory. Please take a look."

Vice Factory Director Qian glared at Xu Ying, wishing he could kill her, his eyes red with hatred.

How could he have forgotten this girl? She was Mr. Sun’s loyal dog, fiercely loyal indeed.

With such a major incident occurring, it was impossible she wouldn’t be involved, yet he had overlooked this.

Vice Factory Director Qian was filled with regret, wishing he had dealt with her first. He tried to argue his case with Minister Zhang, but Minister Zhang didn’t give him the chance.

"The director from Shanghai has already confessed the truth; all those letters were written in your hand. You’re very good, Vice Factory Director Qian. The rest you can explain to the police," said Minister Zhang, full of anger.

"Minister Zhang, I realize my mistake, please spare me this once," implored Vice Factory Director Qian, panicking at the mention of the police.

He fell to the ground with a thud, clinging to Minister Zhang’s legs, begging for mercy.

Minister Zhang paid no mind, simply watching as the police took Vice Factory Director Qian away.

As Deputy Factory Director Qian was led away, he dismissed everyone.

Mr. Sun, the Factory Director, rushed to the police station, seeking money from Deputy Factory Director Qian.

After the crowd dispersed, Minister Zhang looked at Mr. Sun with an excited expression and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Old Sun, we owe you a lot for these matters.

If it weren’t for you to timely discover Deputy Factory Director Qian’s wrongdoing and intercept those letters, our factory’s formula could have been leaked, and we would have had no chance in this trade fair."

At the mention of this, Minister Zhang’s face was filled with relief.

The trade fair was the place of his dreams, and now that he had finally got the opportunity, he absolutely could not watch it slip away from him.

Mr. Sun smiled at Minister Zhang, sharing the same thought; they couldn’t afford to lose the chance at the trade fair.

Only by attending the trade fair could Yu County take big strides, gain more exposure, build more connections, and contribute to the development of Yu County.

"Minister Zhang, you flatter me too much. I was merely doing the job I am supposed to do. Speaking of which, this incident is also my negligence.

If it weren’t for this incident, I wouldn’t have found out that Mr. Qian actually arranged so many people in the factory.

It’s all due to my oversight, nearly ruining the factory," Mr. Sun confessed, still feeling a sense of guilt.

He had always felt annoyed by Deputy Factory Director Qian’s temper and arrogance, but as an old comrade, he had never imagined Qian’s ambition would be so vast that he would stoop to any means to achieve his goals.

How did a good friend from the past turn out to be like this?

Mr. Sun’s face was filled with disappointment and sadness.

Minister Zhang naturally understood and comforted him, "People change; you don’t need to feel too bad about it."

Mr. Sun nodded in agreement.

Minister Zhang turned to Xu Ying, curious, "I heard you’ve developed something new—the instant noodle seasoning packets?"

This topic immediately brightened Mr. Sun’s downcast mood, as he perked up with vitality.

"Minister Zhang, this instant noodle seasoning packet tastes very good. If we could coordinate with the production line of Magic City Food Factory, we are sure to secure a significant number of orders this time."

Mr. Sun brimmed with confidence.

Minister Zhang also had faith in him, and now, looking at Xu Ying was like looking at treasure; she hadn’t found anything she couldn’t achieve.

Thinking about the mechanics factory, Minister Zhang secretly hoped that Xu Ying would put in a good word for the factory.

After all, he managed these factories, and naturally, he wanted to distribute benefits evenly.

The mechanics factory had recently designed a new Seeder, which he felt was quite impressive. If it could be promoted on a large scale, it could not only save the farmers a lot of effort but also speed up the process.

Minister Zhang asked expectantly, "I heard you went to see the mechanics factory. Did you see their semi-automated Seeder?

What do you think about it?"

Xu Ying found it amusing that both Minister Zhang and Mr. Sun were so similar, "It’s good. Not only does it improve the bulky nature of the Wooden Seeder, but it also reduces labor costs.

Speeding up production will bring a lot of benefits to the common people."

Minister Zhang smiled broadly as he listened to her praise, "Do you think our product, if promoted at the trade fair, might find buyers?"

Xu Ying was confident. After all, other countries also had agriculture, and their technology was not as advanced, while technologically advanced countries were more focused on the design of large machinery.

They didn’t pay much attention to the farmlands.

As long as their machine was priced reasonably, there would definitely be buyers.

"I think there will be buyers!"

"Then let’s take a few to promote at the trade fair!" Minister Zhang said excitedly.
