Chapter 28 - Collecting Accounts Receivable!

Lin Luoluo’s expression darkened.

“What else do you have to say?”

Yang Hao said coldly:

“President Lin accused me of embezzling and even had someone gather evidence against me, forcing me to resign.

I have nothing to say, and I have already resigned.”

“But President Lin, as the general manager, if you exploit your authority for personal gain, how would you explain that?”

Lin Luoluo said angrily:

“Yang Hao, what do you mean by that?”

Yang Hao looked at the crowd and said:

“Everyone, you probably all know that yesterday President Lin assigned someone to my engineering department.

His name is Zhou Yu, and he is also here today at the meeting.”

As soon as Yang Hao finished speaking, everyone turned to look at Zhou Yu.

In an instant, Zhou Yu became the focus of attention at the meeting.

Zhou Yu narrowed his eyes as if Yang Hao was using him to make a point.

Lin Luoluo’s face also turned somewhat unsightly.

She didn’t know what Yang Hao was up to,

but she was certain that Yang Hao was up to no good.

Yang Hao continued speaking:

“To my knowledge, this person has neither educational qualifications nor professional skills certifications, completely unfit according to the company’s hiring standards, yet President Lin arranged for him to join.”

“I think, since President Lin forced his inclusion, it must be due to his extraordinary capabilities.”

“Thus, regarding the matter of debt collection, I don’t think all departments should bear the responsibility.

At least, Zhou Yu should also have an opportunity to demonstrate his performance, perfectly showcasing President Lin’s capability in discerning and employing talent.”

“Of course, I wouldn’t want to make it difficult for the newcomer.

Currently, the company needs to collect six debts, with Tongming Building Materials having the least amount, just three million.

Let President Lin’s person be responsible for this smallest amount, that wouldn’t be excessive, right?”

“What do you all think?”

Yang Hao’s words were based entirely on the perspective of company regulations and were unassailable.

Therefore, many people nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Lin Luoluo’s face turned particularly unsightly.

The debt from Tongming Building Materials might be the smallest amount, but the owner of Tongming Building Materials and the Yancheng underworld were deeply entangled, making it the most difficult debt to collect.

A slight misstep could even endanger the lives of those attempting to collect it.

Yang Hao intentionally assigning Zhou Yu to collect this debt clearly targeted her.

She immediately regretted arranging Zhou Yu in the engineering department.

Now, with Yang Hao making reasonable arguments against Zhou Yu, she was at a loss for reasons to refuse.

Lin Luoluo found herself in a dilemma.

Just then, a voice rang out.

“Okay, I will collect that debt.”

The speaker was Zhou Yu.

Lin Luoluo was stunned, then shouted angrily:

“What does this have to do with you?

Shut your mouth.”

Zhou Yu looked innocent.

It was just collecting a debt, what was so difficult about that?

Besides, wasn’t he just helping Lin Luoluo out of a tough spot?

Why wasn’t she appreciative?

However, Yang Hao appeared thrilled.

“Good, then it’s settled.

Sign a military order.”

Yang Hao looked up, and one of his subordinates immediately brought a military order to Zhou Yu.

Zhou Yu didn’t hesitate and signed his name.

Lin Luoluo was so angry her chest heaved, but she couldn’t lash out publicly.

She took a deep breath and said coldly:

“That’s enough for today’s meeting.

Dismissed.”

Everyone began to pack up their things and left the meeting room.

Zhou Yu was about to leave when Lin Luoluo’s voice reached him.

“Stop right there.”

Zhou Yu turned his head, only to see Lin Luoluo’s face was chillingly cold.

On the side, Qi Fei shot Zhou Yu a look that said ‘take care of yourself,’ and then he too made himself scarce.

After everyone had left, Lin Luoluo approached Zhou Yu.

“Who told you to take initiative?”

“Do you realize your reckless words put me in a difficult position, causing me significant trouble?”

“Who gave you that right?”

Lin Luoluo burst into a fierce critique.

Zhou Yu, with a helpless expression, wiped the spit off his face.

“President Lin, it’s just collecting a debt.

Once I collect it, all will be well.

I agreed to it because I saw that Yang Hao had put you in a difficult spot.”

Lin Luoluo trembled with anger.

She wished she could slap Zhou Yu twice.

But, she had to admit, Zhou Yu’s words made sense.

Suppressing her anger, Lin Luoluo said,

“You don’t need to worry about this matter.

I’ll figure something out.”

Having said that, Lin Luoluo strode out.

Zhou Yu looked puzzled.

What was wrong with this beautiful woman?

He was helping her, yet she was ungrateful!

Zhou Yu shook his head and walked out.

Back in the engineering department, Wang Miao and the others had finished cleaning the office, which was now in its cleanest state ever since its establishment.

Wang Miao ran over excitedly.

“Brother Yu, how do you think we did with the cleaning?”

Zhou Yu nodded and praised, “Not bad, that bouquet is beautiful.”

“I bought it,” Wang Miao said proudly, patting his chest.

“Hmm, not bad,” Zhou Yu glanced briefly.

“By the way, Brother Yu, was there something important about this grand meeting?”

Zhou Yu roughly explained the meeting’s events.

Looking at the military order in his hands, Wang Miao and Chen Xingxing were stunned.

“Tongming Building Materials?

No way…” Wang Miao cried out.

Zhou Yu was taken aback.

“What’s wrong?”

“I heard from Qiu Ge that Tongming Building Materials is not to be messed with if it can be avoided,” Wang Miao explained.

“Yeah, Brother Yu, you agreed too hastily.

Signing a military order at the shareholder’s meeting means it’s not just a matter of salary deduction if you can’t collect it,” Chen Xingxing said miserably.

“…” Zhou Yu was speechless.

“Who says it can’t be collected.” Zhou Yu replied.

Wang Miao was startled, then remembered the scene from the bar yesterday, his eyes sparkled.

“Right, others might not be able to collect it, but Brother Yu definitely will.”

“Brother Yu, whenever you go, I’ll come with you.”

“No rush, go and organize the account information for Tongming Building Materials first.

Bring the documents when you go; after all, it’s a big corporation, we can’t act like thugs.”

“Okay.

I’ll organize it now.”
