279 Destruction
“I’ve already transferred three million Yuan to the company’s account. You can set aside two million Yuan and use the remaining one million Yuan to hire more employees. You must ensure that the employees are good.” Chu Ning thought for a while and continued.
“Alright, President Chu. Also…” Zhang Bo suddenly hesitated.
“What’s wrong?” Chu Ning asked with a smile when she saw Zhang Bo’s expression through the rearview mirror.
“It’s just that I can sense that some of the Qinghe villagers seem to be very hostile to us. I hope this is just my imagination.” Zhang Bo was a little unsure. This could be a serious or trivial matter.
“It’s not an illusion. There are indeed residents who are very hostile to me,” Chu Ning said with certainty.
Zhang Bo must have met someone similar to Buddy, or Buddy himself.
“I’m already thinking about how to deal with these people. You just have to focus on operating and developing the Soaring Clouds group,” Chu Ning said softly.
“Yang Feng?” Chu Ning looked down at the information displayed on her phone’s search engine and fell into deep thought.
Zhang Bo parked the car at their usual spot and both of them headed to the Qinghe village council location.
However, as their figures gradually disappeared at the end of the road, a few figures suddenly sprang out from the bushes on the side.
Buddy appeared beside Chu Ning’s Rolls-Royce with several children who were less than ten years old.
Looking at the Rolls-Royce, greed and jealousy flashed in Buddy’s eyes. He didn’t have a driver’s license and had never driven a car before, but he knew that Chu Ning’s car must be very expensive. That was enough.
“There are no surveillance cameras here, no one will know that I did it!” Buddy said viciously.
“Hey, you guys have the stuff you prepared?” Buddy turned around and asked the children behind him. These children were all from Qinghe Village. He had bribed and enticed them with snacks.
“I’m ready, Big Brother Buddy!”
“Big Brother Buddy, is this car yours?”
“Big Brother Buddy, are you going to take us for a ride?”
……
“Keep your voices down. If you can’t complete the mission, not only will you lose the snacks, but I won’t give you any money either!” Buddy suddenly said fiercely.
His words had a great effect. After hearing what Buddy had said, the children immediately shut their mouths.
“We can start now.” As Buddy finished speaking, each of the children took out a sharp stone and started to slash at Chu Ning’s car.
A few minutes later, Buddy circled around the Rolls-Royce in satisfaction. He felt that his masterpiece would definitely be a perfect surprise for President Chu.
“Alright, stop.” The children stopped what they were doing and looked at Buddy expectantly.
Buddy was a little impatient. He took out several crumpled fifty Yuan notes from his pocket and gave them to the children.
“You can spend this money, but you have to go to the small shop in the neighboring village to spend it. Also, don’t tell anyone about what happened just now, including your parents! Whoever’s behavior is to my satisfaction, I’ll bring him along again next time.” Buddy warned the children seriously after giving them the money.
“Don’t worry, Big Brother Buddy. We won’t tell anyone about this. I’ll be the first to beat up anyone who dares to say anything!” Among the group of children, a tall and fat child immediately patted his chest and promised.
“Good. You guys can go back now,” Buddy said imposingly, his hands behind his back.
After the group of children had left, Buddy looked around vigilantly. After making sure that no one had witnessed what he had done, he hummed a little tune and left.
There were no surveillance cameras at the place where Chu Ning parked her car, so no one from Qinghe Village saw what happened. But what Buddy didn’t know was that there was a high-resolution camera in Chu Ning’s Rolls-Royce that records everything within ten meters radius from the car.
Buddy was already very cautious. He had waited for many days for the best timing to make a move without being noticed. However, his personal experience and knowledge were too shallow, and he did not have much basic common sense.
He didn’t understand why someone would give him so much money just to make things difficult for one person. Buddy wasn’t aware of the basic principle of risk and reward co-existing. In his opinion, this chance was simply a gift from the heavens.
Therefore, Buddy had no idea that Chu Ning’s car was worth more than five million Yuan, nor did he know the consequences of his behavior.
He even felt that he was very smart and that his plan was simply amazing.
