Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The city leader looked at Xu Ling in surprise.

“This is…”

Geng Huo hurriedly stepped forward and said, “This is the daughter of Director Xu of the Xu Family Pharmaceutical Company, Xu Ling. She activated the Ice Muscle Body a few days ago.”

The eyes of the city leader and Bureau leader lit up as they revealed an extremely enthusiastic smile.

“So she’s Director Xu’s daughter. No wonder she has such an outstanding aura!”

“That’s right. To be able to activate the Ice Muscle Body, her aura must be extraordinary!”

“I heard that Miss Xu was the one who killed the parasite. She’s really not inferior to men!”

The group of leaders and cadres behind him praised.

The city leader and Bureau leader also said, “Little Ling, don’t worry. We will definitely investigate Jing Pharmaceutical Company properly!”

As they spoke, the directors of the Jing Pharmaceutical Company and the higher-ups ran over.

They kept wiping the sweat on their faces as they arrived at the office. When they saw the group of leaders, they were so frightened that their hearts trembled. “Mayor, Director, this is all because of the negligence of us higher-ups at the Jing Pharmaceutical Company. Please don’t worry, leaders. We will start the cleanup operation immediately and find the black sheep!”

When Xu Ling heard this, she couldn’t help but snort. “Is finding the parasites enough? Don’t you also have to compensate for the losses of the victims?”

Ring ring…

Suddenly, the city leader’s phone rang.

He took a look at the number and his expression turned solemn. He picked up the call and said, “Yes, yes, I am at Jing Pharmaceutical Company… Don’t worry, I will definitely punish the company that embezzled the medicinal herbs severely and not let them off!”

After hanging up the phone, he looked at the higher-ups of the Jing Family Pharmaceutical Company with a threatening look. “Commander Zhao has already heard about this. He is very furious that your Jing Family Pharmaceutical Company would dare to commit such a crime. You guys are simply too disrespectful!”

“We’ll shut down your company and reform it first. After we figure things out, you can submit an application to resume… Also, you’ll need to compensate the victims for their losses!”

The higher-ups of Jing Pharmaceutical Company were on the verge of tears. It was too much of a loss for the company to be closed and reformed. It cost them more than 10 million yuan per day.

“City Leader, Bureau leader, we will definitely make changes according to the requirements, but you have to make an exception for us. The company can’t be shut down. Thousands of employees still have to work and eat!”

“That’s right. Once the company is closed, what will happen to the livelihood of thousands of employees?”

“Thousands of employees mean thousands of families. Their livelihoods are the most important.”

The city leader and Bureau leader frowned.

At this moment, Zhou Hao also received a message from Zhao Zai on the wireless channel.

He immediately replied, “Deal with it impartially. In addition, the compensation must satisfy the families of the victims!”

When Commander Zhao saw the message, he hurriedly forwarded it to the city leader.

He did not dare to neglect them at all. He looked at the higher-ups of Jing Pharmaceutical Company and said authoritatively, “We will shut down the company for one day first and get rid of all the parasites. The city and the Bureau will supervise this matter closely. You guys will also provide compensation that will satisfy the victims. Otherwise, your company will be shut down forever!”

The higher-ups of Jing Pharmaceutical Company’s eyes lit up when they heard this.

They were not stupid. From the city leader’s change in attitude, it seemed that compensation for the victims’ losses was the most important. As for the shutdown and reformation, there was still room for discussion.

The director gritted his teeth and knelt in front of Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun. “Wang Shuyun, the company bears full responsibility for mistreating you. How about this? I’ve decided to compensate you with 10% of the company’s shares. Are you satisfied with this arrangement?”

“What? 10% of Jing Pharmaceutical Company’s shares?”

Not only were the higher-ups and shareholders shocked, but Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun were also stunned.

It should be known that although Jing Pharmaceutical Company was not comparable to Xu Pharmaceutical Company, it was still one of the top ten pharmaceutical companies in Huadong City. The 10% shares it owned represented a huge profit!

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The other shareholders understood the situation and also knelt in front of Zhou Xueguo and Wang Shuyun.

“The company can’t be closed, Comrade Wang Shuyun. You’re already a senior member of the company. Can you bear to sit by and watch so many colleagues lose their jobs?!”

“Comrade Wang Shuyun, thousands of people rely on the company to live. I believe you can empathize with them. If the company is closed, many families will lose their livelihoods because of it!”

Wang Shuyun fell silent. Of course, she knew the consequences of closing the company. If not for her son, the closing of the company would have a huge impact on her family. Even if it was just for a few days, the consequences would be unthinkable.

Thinking of this, she sighed in her heart.

However, just as she was about to speak, Zhou Hao’s voice sounded. “20%!”

The entire office instantly fell silent..
