As soon as she arrived in Sioux City, Li Manjun felt cold.
The sky here was gloomy and drizzling, and as soon as I got out of the car I felt the biting cold wind howling.
The passengers all gasped.
This is Li Manjun's first visit to Sioux City. She seems to have come here for tourism in her previous life, but it was just a quick tour. She looked around, took photos, checked in and left.
My impression of Sioux City is that there are so many people.
But today's Sioux City is not as commercialized as it was in later generations. On a rainy day, there were no people on the streets, and it was almost dusk, so everyone went home to cook.
Li Manjun pulled his suitcase alone and walked through the alleys, and finally found the address Jiang Yu sent to him.
My cell phone was out of battery and I couldn't contact anyone, so I could only knock tentatively on this brown arched stone door full of classical charm.
After waiting for a while, when the coat on his shoulders was soaked by the rain, the door opened a crack, and then opened it immediately. Jiang Yu shouted in surprise: "Sister-in-law!"
Li Manjun nodded and entered the small courtyard.
Jiang Yu walked in front carrying her suitcase and led her upstairs from the wooden stairs on the side to the small attic on the second floor.
The floor was a bit old, and it creaked when you stepped on it. When you stepped on it, there was a soft rebound. Li Manjun felt anxious and looked at the floor with worry.
Jiang Yu said: "This is the home of Pu Laoer's wife's cousin. It's an old house for decades. The floor is a little noisy. Sister-in-law, don't worry, it won't collapse."
Li Manjun hummed, sat down on the chair Jiang Yu pulled out, took a glass of hot water from him, drank a few sips, and immediately warmed up.
Jiang Yu handed over another towel, and Li Manjun casually sucked the rainwater off his body, then began to ask him about the current situation in Su City.
Jiang Yu sighed first and then said: "Most of the police have withdrawn. Two small stations found problems and were closed down. The express delivery at the main warehouse is full, and some fresh fish and crabs are already smelly.
, but the relevant regulatory authorities have not yet released them, so these express delivery can only be left there.”
"Reporters have also walked around a lot, but they are still stuck at the main warehouse because people are making trouble there every day, shouting for compensation and goods."
"The products received from several large supermarkets here are still stored in the main warehouse and cannot be withdrawn. The Pu family is negotiating, but it is very unpleasant..."
Jiang Yu is very worried. If this continues, Junda in Su City will be doomed.
It will even seriously affect franchisees in several other regions.
No, it should be said that it has already been affected.
The more trouble comes, the more trouble comes. Several franchisees contacted them, wanting their franchise fees refunded, and clamoring for the headquarters to compensate them for their losses.
It took Jiang Yu a full two hours to give an overview of these situations. If he went into detail, he would not be able to finish it all in one night.
In short, Junda's situation is very dangerous now, and he and Xiaoguan are just holding on.
Due to their status and positions, their authority is not as great as Zhao Yong's, and they cannot deter the Sun Haiyang brothers.
"What's going on with Sun Haiyang and Sun Haitao?" Li Manjun asked with a frown.
Jiang Yu became angry when he mentioned this, "Those two cowards are just thinking about how to recover the capital and interests they invested. They don't do anything they ask them to do. They push and push again and again. When I ask questions urgently, they just
Said they can’t control this mess.”
There were even more outrageous things, but Jiang Yu didn’t dare to tell Li Manjun.
This person just forgets his roots easily. When the two parties worked together, they were always talking about Brother Yong. Now that something happened to Brother Yong, they couldn't handle it at all. They even blamed Brother Yong for following the truck, which made people angry.
If Xiaoguan hadn't remained rational and calm, Liu Chao would have beaten the two brothers to death.
But as a result, internal conflicts completely broke out, and Xiaoguan's authority was not as powerful as his brothers. It was really a headache for him to do something to save the current situation, but he was stuck between the two brothers.
"I heard from Ah Chao that the Sun brothers are already thinking about how to divide their shares."
Jiang Yu rubbed his temples to prevent himself from fainting from anger, "They want to separate the family. The Rongcheng side belongs to them, and the remaining Haishi branch and the franchise areas in several coastal provinces belong to us. This way the problem will not be solved.
It’s not their problem anymore.”
Li Manjun listened quietly, recalling in his mind the time when he took the train alone to the north to pull brown paper bags.
That time, Sun Haitao also helped her pull all the goods back, one sister-in-law at a time, and they called her affectionately.
In the past few years, during festivals and festivals, she would go to dinner parties with Zhao Yong. In her impression, the Sun brothers were all kind-hearted.
Who would have thought that these two people were so unreliable.
"When necessary, we can only use some extraordinary measures." Li Manjun said quietly.
The sky had completely darkened. The two people in the room were so focused on talking that they forgot to turn on the lights. Only the light of a street lamp came in through the second floor window, shining on her face and swaying with the shadows of the trees.
, flickering on and off.
When Jiang Yu raised his head and saw her cold gaze, he couldn't help but get goosebumps all over his body.
"Sister-in-law, what do you think we should do? Now that Brother Yong is not here, we all listen to you."
Jiang Yu seems to no longer adhere to his old rules. As long as he can keep Junda, he, Xiaoguan and Liu Chao will do anything!
The brothers have worked hard all the way until now, and are about to get on the right track. They are already planning to integrate and list on the Hong Kong stock market next year.
At this time, if anyone wants to stop, they will never agree!
Li Manjun saw that a gentle man like him suddenly became so excited. She raised her hand to indicate to him to slow down, "Let's eat first, and then we'll talk about it after we finish eating."
Only then did Jiang Yu react and apologized to Li Manjun in embarrassment, "I forgot, sister-in-law, you came all the way and you haven't even had lunch yet. I'm really sorry. I'm going out to buy some food and come back. Sister-in-law, please rest for a while."
Li Manjun nodded, she really needed to think quietly alone.
Jiang Yu got up and took his umbrella out, turning on the light in the room as he left.
Her vision became brighter, dispelling the shadow that had been suppressing Li Manjun's heart for the past two days. She sat on the edge of the bed, looking at the shadows of the trees outside, with a specific action plan in mind.
Half an hour later, Jiang Yu brought back dinner, and the two of them talked while eating. Jiang Yu nodded repeatedly to express his understanding, and couldn't help but look at Li Manjun a few more times.
He didn't expect that his sister-in-law, who seemed to be the most principled and disciplined, would actually have such a side.
It's so...so cool!
After the two of them finished dinner, Li Manjun went back to the small room inside to rest.
She rushed all the way from the capital to Haishi, and then from Haishi to Sioux City. She couldn't get any rest for a long time, and burned so many brain cells that even her iron-clad body couldn't bear it.
Now that things were finally arranged, she had to have a good sleep and welcome tomorrow.
