Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

As soon as Wei Yongxiong's words fell, a subordinate spoke up, "Mr. Wei, I want to resign."

The color drained from Wei Yongxiong's face, and he was about to curse when, before he could start, another subordinate followed, "Mr. Wei, I also want to resign."

Immediately after, one subordinate after another stood up.

"Mr. Wei, I resign too!"

"Mr. Wei, it's not that you haven't been good to us, it's just that Xu Yang is offering too much!"

"Mr. Wei, let's work together again in the future if there's a chance!"

Having said this, they immediately turned and left without any hesitation.

Wei Yongxiong stood there in a daze, unable to snap back to reality for a long time.

He thought, even if these people were to leave, they wouldn't all leave.

Yet, in the blink of an eye, they had all left, completely clean. It was indeed hard for him to accept.

Hadn't he said he would increase salaries by thirty percent?

Hadn't he drawn them a big pie, promising them shares?

Hadn't he told everyone they could become billionaires?

So why did they still leave?

Wei Yongxiong felt puzzled and angry.

Puzzled over what benefits Xu Yang had given these people so that they left so decisively.

Angry that these people, who had followed him for so many years, didn't have the slightest bit of sentimentality and had all left.

He had raised a pack of ingrates.

When he came to his senses, his subordinates were nowhere to be seen.

He took out his phone and dialed Xu Yang's number.

The call connected quickly.

Wei Yongxiong cut straight to the chase, "Xu Yang, you sure are something. How the hell did you poach all my people?"

Xu Yang laughed, "Isn't that easy? Pay them!"

Wei Yongxiong was so angry, he wanted to curse.

Of course, he knew it was about money.

But you can poach ordinary workers by increasing salaries and offering various benefits, you might even poach a project manager.

But my close confidants, how did you poach them?

Those were confidants who had followed him for many years, almost founding members.

It's impossible they would leave just because of a thirty percent increase in salary or those benefits.

How much money would it take?

Thinking this, Wei Yongxiong said sternly, "Xu Yang, now that you've poached my people, can't you be more specific?"

"More specific?" Xu Yang chuckled, "No problem, at the corner to the left of your construction site gate, go have a look and you'll find out."

The corner to the left of the construction site gate?

Wei Yongxiong furrowed his brow. After the subordinates had left, it seemed that they indeed had headed to the left.

So, he immediately went to check it out.

Then, he saw an armored cash transport truck parked there, its van door open, with about a dozen large crates, each one open and stacked with neatly arranged hundred-yuan notes, each crate probably containing three million yuan.

His confidant subordinates were signing a contract at the table beside the cash transport truck, then they'd head over to the truck's van and take away a crate of cash.

Each one was taking three million yuan!

Wei Yongxiong felt his head buzzing.

The annual salary of these confidants was around five hundred thousand yuan.

With a thirty percent salary increase, it was about six hundred fifty thousand per year.

Xu Yang immediately gave them three million each, which would have taken almost five years to earn.

No wonder these confidants left without hesitation upon receiving a call.

If he was in their shoes, he would leave as well.

Not leaving would be idiotic!

However, he couldn't quite understand why Xu Yang would spend so much money just to get at him. Was it really worth it?

So many people, it probably cost thirty to forty million yuan.

So, he couldn't help but say over the phone, "Xu Yang, you damn well know that what you're doing is a loss. You're spending so much money just to deal with me, aren't you afraid that your capital chain will break, affecting your other businesses?"

Xu Yang laughed lightly, "Just these millions, and my capital chain would break? You underestimate me. You try to mess with me, yet didn't even investigate my background? I have the cash cows of Fengcai Guild and Pioneer Culture, and I currently have over ten billion cash on hand. Do you really think my capital chain would break?"

Wei Yongxiong's mouth twitched a few times.

He really hadn't looked into Xu Yang thoroughly.

He thought Xu Yang was just a rising star, nothing impressive.

As for the investigation he had ordered in the restaurant, it only covered the ins and outs of that incident.

He thought it was nonsense that Li Xiaolin was extorting a hundred billion from Xu Yang, definitely just some fabrication by Xu Yang.

Now, it seemed that it might be true.

This son of a bitch, Xu Yang was using his money to smash me.

"Wei Yongxiong, originally Li Dashan had already been locked up, and the matter was settled. I couldn't be bothered with you, but you shouldn't have taken action against me. Since you did, I have no choice but to fight back. Good luck to you!"

After that, Xu Yang hung up the phone.

Wei Yongxiong stood there, frozen.

You wish me good luck, motherfucker?

My construction sites are all paralyzed. What good luck is there?!

At that moment, his mobile phone rang.

Seeing the caller ID, he realized it was his assistant calling.

Wei Yongxiong couldn't help but feel somewhat relieved; at least his assistant hadn't been poached.

He still had loyal subordinates who weren't swayed by profit.

He answered the call, only to hear his assistant's panicked voice: "President Wei, there's been an incident!"

Had it been in the past upon hearing such words from his assistant, Wei Yongxiong wouldn't have refrained from rebuking him.

But now, he dared not agitate his assistant. If he scolded him and the assistant decided to quit on the spot, then he would be completely abandoned.

So, he patiently soothed, "What happened, don't panic, tell me slowly."

The assistant's voice was still frantic: "President Wei, all of our workers have been poached. The construction site has shut down. I asked around, and it was Xu Yang from Jiangdi Lao who did it!"

Wei Yongxiong said, "I'm aware of that. It doesn't matter if the workers were poached; we can just recruit a new batch!"

The assistant said, "President Wei, indeed we can recruit another batch of workers, but the construction materials are gone!"

Wei Yongxiong narrowed his eyes: "The materials are gone? What do you mean?"

The assistant said, "All the construction materials in Jiangcheng have been bought up by Xu Yang's Huayang Real Estate."

Wei Yongxiong was unconcerned: "Let him buy them. We can go buy from Shancheng, which is closest to us."

The assistant said, "The materials in Shancheng have also been bought up by Xu Yang's Huayang Real Estate."

"What!" Wei Yongxiong's expression finally changed, but he quickly recovered, "No worries, if he has bought Shancheng's materials, we'll go to Mengcheng to buy them!"

"President Wei, Huayang Real Estate has purchased all the construction materials in Mengcheng too." The assistant was nearly in tears, "And it's not just that, Huayang Real Estate has bought all the construction materials in all twelve cities of Tiannan Province!"

"What!" Wei Yongxiong was stupefied.

To buy up the construction materials in all twelve cities in the province.

What kind of heartless person would do such a thing.

The assistant continued: "President Wei, that's not all, they've even booked all the province's construction materials for next year!"

"Fuck!"

Wei Yongxiong couldn't hold back any longer.

Xu Yang had not only purchased all the construction materials in the province but had also booked all of next year's supply.

How is anyone expected to live?

He still had many construction sites waiting for materials. If he couldn't get the materials, the projects would have to stop.

If they stop for a few months, he won't be able to meet the project deadlines, which will count as a breach of contract, and he'll have to pay damages.

There's no denying it, Xu Yang's move was vicious!

It was a checkmate.

He racked his brains for a solution, but after much thought, he couldn't come up with anything.

Xu Yang's strategy was out in the open.

Even if you knew about it, you couldn't counter it.

As for buying materials from another province, the cost would be too high, practically no different from breaching the contract, maybe even more costly.

Wei Yongxiong felt like crying without tears.

If he had known it would come to this, he would not have messed with Xu Yang.

Xu Yang, who had risen in just one year and taken down a hundred-billion enterprise, was indeed not someone to be trifled with.
