Chapter 290 Compression Test
Fu Ping'an got the aviation school, and the next step was to take the postgraduate entrance examination. He applied for the major of Asia-Pacific International Relations and Strategic Research in his department, including four subjects, ideological and political theory, French in the second foreign countries, international relations, and professional English. He had no problems.
The first exam for the postgraduate entrance examination will be in mid-January and early February. Jiangda will start the re-examination in early March. There will be the first semester of the senior year. During this period, Fu Ping'an has to run back and forth between China and Xingmatai, and is busy with a lot of money. All the materials needed for the campaign must be purchased from Yiwu, from the port of Ningbo Beilun, and sent to Xingmatai. In addition, it is funds. The campaign is a money-burning act. The election battle is money. It takes money to hold gatherings, it takes money to do TV shows, and it takes money to buy voters. The operation of the campaign team itself also requires money, image design, program formulation, security and public relations, and money flows every day. Anlan company's account will be paid for some money. In fact, it is to purchase wood, but in fact it is all spent on the campaign.
With the cooperation of Xingmatang, Mu Lan got another batch of wood, but the quality was not as good as last time. Although Xingmatai was tied to His Majesty Matteo C's chariot, he also had to have a meal, which was equivalent to everyone doing business together and half of the payment for the goods.
The wood piled up in the port, waiting for the next freighter from China.
The goods have not yet been shipped, and the money has been spent. With Liu Xiaona's efforts, many wood companies have paid advance payments or even full payments, because they all believe that Anlan Company has a way to get sandalwood that is embargoed by other Southeast Asian countries. Everyone has touched the fun things in the Delong furniture warehouse with their own hands.
Anlan Company is like a newly developed machine that has not been run-in and adjusted, and it is running at full capacity. No one feels that something is wrong.
The first thing that happened was Delong Furniture Factory. The factory management was originally very strict, but a week ago, Xiaona's aunt Zhang Aihong introduced her husband's nephew to be a warehouse manager. The young man turned his back on some kinship with the boss and left the rules and regulations behind. While on night shift, he secretly brought an 800-watt electric stove to cook noodles. In winter, the weather was dry and the food was easy to catch fire. The overloaded aging line caused a fire and started burning on Christmas Eve in 2014.
It was windy tonight, and the furniture factory warehouse was filled with wood, which was difficult to control when burning. Several fire trucks from the Lingang Fire Brigade drove over to no avail. The warehouse was connected to the factory area and burned the semi-finished furniture products in the factory. Liu Delong rushed over and filled the basin with water to rush into the fire. He was anxious. It was wood worth hundreds of millions. If he didn't snatch it out, the factory would go bankrupt!
Everyone held Liu Delong tightly. Old Liu suffered a cerebral hemorrhage on the spot and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.
A fire burned Delong Furniture Factory to white ground, and the entire Lingang air was filled with a wonderful fragrance. It is said that it was the burning smell of aged nanmu and sandalwood that could not be smelled even if you spend money.
Delong furniture suffered serious losses. Not only did it burn raw materials and semi-finished products, but the factory office building also went over. The most painful thing was that three young employees unfortunately died while putting out the fire. Instead, the guy who caused the fire was safe and safe and slipped home as if nothing had happened.
Fu Ping'an and Liu Xiaona heard that the fire had occurred and rushed over from Ori River overnight. There was black smoke floating above the factory and broken walls, which was heartbreaking. Looking at the mess, the business cars in the garage were burned into iron racks. Liu Xiaona shivered all over and kept muttering: "The loss is too great, the loss is too great..."
"Go to the hospital to see your dad first." Fu Ping'an said, his heart was bleeding. No one wanted to see such a thing, but now that things have come to this point, they can only face it.
Liu Delong suffered a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. The rescue was timely and he had recovered. He was lying on the hospital bed. His energy was drained away, and his eyes were dull. He didn't turn his head to take a look when his daughter came.
Fu Ping'an stepped forward to comfort him, and Liu Delong burst into tears: "Those woods could have turned into one billion."
"Also, there are so many Xingmatai." Fu Ping'an opened the river channel in a flash. The first batch of wood was a treasure that Huang Lifa had stored for twenty years. He could not find such a good thing in the future, but in order to comfort the old man, he could only say so.
After coming out of the ward, he met Zhang Aihong and Zhang Aiqing. The two aunts were chattering, but there was no trace of gloating in their eyebrows. Liu Xiaona passed without even calling him.
"The factory has insurance and can make a part of the claim, but the wood is not insured. The loss is too huge. But it is not impossible to afford it. I can only wait for the next ship of cargo." Liu Xiaona sighed, and she didn't say anything clearly, but Fu Ping'an understood that the batch of goods was equivalent to the five hundred kilograms of silver ingots in the town warehouse of Delong Furniture in the old society's money house warehouse. If it is thrown there, it can play a role in determining the world. Now that the wood is burned, people's hearts will be unstable.
"You stay and help the aftermath." Fu Ping'an said, he tried hard to remain calm, but there was still a hint of panic. This is different from the life-and-death battle. No matter how strong the enemy is, you can do your best. In the end, it is just a sacrifice, but the business is different. You owe tens of millions of dollars. You can't die. That's a manifestation of a coward.
Liu Xiaona nodded tiredly. She was the only daughter. She had to take over such a big deal at home. Fu Ping'an had a lot of things and could not hold him back because of this.
"I'll stay, too, you're probably not allowed by yourself." Fu Ping'an said again.
This is what a man should say. He never leaves him and stays by his side in the most difficult times. Liu Xiaona suddenly feels less uncomfortable. This man is worth loving and worth marrying.
This was a major fire. The fire brigade came to the fire site to investigate and found a high-power electric stove for cooking noodles. It was classified as a major responsibility accident and handed over to the public security department for handling. The person in charge was detained, but Liu Delong, as the person in charge, could not escape responsibility, and the person died, and compensation alone was a lot of money.
There is still a little money in Delong Furniture’s account, which is only enough to pay the salary next month. However, Anlan Company’s account is no longer money. Faced with the surging workers and suppliers, Liu Xiaona was in tears.
The phone kept ringing, and many people who paid the money had heard about the fire in Delong furniture. They called to inquire, worried that their rights would be damaged. Liu Xiaona and Fu Ping'an boasted about Haikou and said that the next ship would arrive soon, so there was no need to worry, we are the general distribution of the Wang Family of Xingmatai.
...
At Xingmatai Port, late at night, a bulk cargo ship flying Panama flag was parked at the port. It was brightly lit and the gantry crane was running. The wood from the load truck was lifted onto the ship. This was a smuggling operation without customs permission. Of course, the upper and lower parts were ready, and no one would cause trouble.
Mu Lan was in charge of the on-site command, and Peter Huang from Xingmatang, who fought with her was her former rival. Now everyone is on the same boat. They all eat with the king. Those who drive trucks and tower cranes are all Chinese workers, and everything is in an orderly manner.
Suddenly, countless policemen rushed out from all directions, including anti-smuggling police in white clothes, special police in dark blue combat uniforms, police holding shields, batons and rifles, workers were in a mess, fleeing in scattered areas, police fired warnings, and sirens were heard.
Mu Lan reacted quickly and pulled Peter Huang into the car and left. The police followed behind and symbolically chased him and gave up. This is also the unspoken rule in the Xingma Taiwan police and gangster game. To catch the little one, it is not a big deal. After all, the boss has to go back to raise money to redeem the little one. If the boss is caught and the little ones are scattered, the police will not be in vain.
This is an anti-smuggling operation against Matteo Ci, which was ordered by Prime Minister Marquez personally to cut off Matteo Ci's campaign funds and use a slaughter to kill. Even if Matteo Ci is just a joke, it cannot be taken lightly.
Mu Lan escaped back to the garrison, learned from her mistakes, and determined that there was an insider inside, but she couldn't figure out who the insider was. Everyone was suspicious. This was not a child's house play, but a life-and-death political struggle. She fought a cold war and began to miss home.
In the early morning, Fu Ping'an received a call from across the ocean, and all the second batch of goods were seized by Xingma Taiwan Customs. The Anlan company's headquarters was investigated and the account book was blocked. He might have to be punished with a huge fine. The only thing that is thankful is that Mu Lan is still free.
The lifeblood of Anlan Company was cut off. Without Xingmatai's supply, the company had no meaning of existence. First, it was a fire, and then a customs anti-smuggling. It was like two heavy punches on Fu Ping'an's head, dazed him and killed him.
A few months ago, when Anlan Company was established, it was a glorious moment. It rented an office building and bought a large g. A rare wood worth 100 million yuan appeared in the port, amazed everyone. It acquired Delong furniture and brought the beauty back. The advance payment was collected and everything was so smooth and beautiful. Even Fu Ping'an's life reached its peak, but extraordinary success and beauty often represent the end of this period of fortune. Destiny always spirals up, and there is a peak and there is a valley bottom. But I didn't expect the valley bottom to come so quickly.
Overnight, the debt collection company was crowded with debt collection, and the situation would not deteriorate so quickly. This was all due to Zhang Jianzhong. Lingang was originally an imported timber distribution center. Zhang Jianzhong added fuel to the fire of Delong furniture and exaggerated it, which triggered market panic. However, one thing he had made a mistake. Anlan Trade could no longer get Xingmatai small-leaf red sandalwood, so the merchants who had paid the money in advance rushed to ask for the advance.
There was no funds in Anlan's trade account, the finance department locked the door, and neither hit or smashed the debt collectors, just sat quietly. Some of them were elderly people who had experienced the test of storms and waves in the 1990s, and some were specialized debt collectors, with big beards, all over their bodies, disabled children, missing arms and legs, and they sat on the ground with a bedding, took out pancakes, pancakes, braised buns, pickled vegetables, and put on a long-term anti-Japanese war.
The company recruits young people, and no one has seen this situation before, so it is useless to call the police. The police do not care about economic disputes, and they don’t do anything, just sit here and watch you go to work.
Fu Ping'an finally appeared. His appearance gave the employees a reassurance. Everyone knows that the chairman has great powers and there are people above him. Even though they are young, there is nothing they can't do.
Chapter completed!
