Chapter 96 Have you ever seen a fisherman with such good skin?
Looking at the "fishermen" who were gradually gathering around her, each with a fierce expression, Jiang Chengcheng sneered, her expression completely unmoved.
To be honest, apart from a few people huddled at the back, these people didn't have any fisherman's air about them at all.
If they were all genuine fishermen, Jiang Chengcheng might still be worried, but now that she sees them, even the last bit of concern in her heart is gone.
"As someone who has received compulsory education, I'll start by being civilized and discussing land ownership in your own words. You say you're a fisherman here, but where do you live? Do you have a property certificate? Even if you do, do you have any authority over this place? Who gave you that right? It can't be someone who bribed you, can it?" Jiang Chengcheng's expression was calm, but her eyes were full of sarcasm.
She faced dozens of strong men alone, yet showed no fear on her face. Her words left everyone present speechless, their faces turning ashen.
"You bitch! If you tell me to get out, then get out! Why are you talking so much nonsense? Are you trying to make us uncomfortable?" Seeing that he couldn't answer Jiang Chengcheng's question, the young man in the lead clenched his fists, looking like he was going to solve the problem by force.
"What? It seems you're all all brawn and no brains? You're not willing to be civilized? You want to settle things with force? Fine, Qi'er, you better stay back." Looking at the arrogant and domineering manner of the people around her, Jiang Chengcheng didn't even glance at them, and directly instructed Ning Qi'er.
"Boss, should we retreat first? They outnumber us and it will be difficult to handle if things really escalate." Ning Qi'er looked at the ground around them, where the sunlight was mostly blocked by shadows, and advised with a worried expression.
"It's okay, I know what I'm doing. Just back away." Jiang Chengcheng whispered in Ning Qier's ear.
After saying this, he took off his coat and handed it directly to Ning Qier.
What a joke! She's never been afraid since her rebirth. If she were to live again with so many cheat abilities, she would still be afraid of these scoundrels. She would be too ashamed to show her face!
"Ha! You think you know what's going on? You think you can beat all of us?" The young man seemed to have heard Jiang Chengcheng's whisper and replied with a disdainful expression.
Upon hearing the other party's provocation, Jiang Chengcheng was not angry; instead, she fell into deep thought.
Does this person have such good hearing?
Just as the atmosphere between the two sides was tense, someone behind the young man tugged at his sleeve.
"Boss, we're just doing this for money, we can't make a scene. And once we're inside, nobody's watching us here." The man whispered a few words to the other man.
Upon hearing this, the young man in the lead finally calmed down. He glanced at Jiang Chengcheng and Ning Qier, then snorted coldly and turned to leave.
"Hmph! Let's go!"
Anyway, there's no construction team behind these two, so they can't cause any trouble!
Jiang Chengcheng, who was already preparing to fight, was stunned by the opponent's move!
no? !
You shout slogans so grandly, but are you really this spineless?
Jiang Chengcheng turned around and exchanged a glance with Ning Qier.
Is it over? !
Ning Qi'er received the look and shook her head.
I have no idea either!
Isn't this too hasty?
"President Jiang, what do we do next?" Ning Qi'er looked at the person who had returned to his original position, feeling extremely frustrated.
These people here are practically like eels, completely impervious to reason!
They neither fight nor leave, just wasting their time and being disgusting!
"Find someone to pose as a fisherman and go find those people who have gone out to sea. Don't waste time with these people. They are probably just thugs hired by the people behind the scenes to pretend to be fishermen. There are very few locals among them."
"Once we reach an agreement with the real fishermen, they'll be helpless. Also, have someone keep a close eye on these people, but don't alert them. Collect evidence that they've been bribed. Once you find the evidence, don't give it to me; just hand it over to the authorities. It'll save us the trouble of getting our hands dirty." Jiang Chengcheng ignored the others and turned back to her car.
"President Jiang, how do you know they aren't real fishermen?" Ning Qi'er asked, somewhat puzzled. Could it be that whether someone is a fisherman or not is written all over their face?
"There are many reasons, but if I had to say, it's probably an occupational hazard," Jiang Chengcheng replied, glancing at Ning Qier who was starting the car.
"Occupational disease? Fishermen can have occupational diseases?" This was the first time Ning Qi'er had heard of this concept.
After all, she had been spoiled by her family and had always lived abroad, so she wouldn't understand these things.
Have you ever seen a fisherman with such good skin and hearing, without any skin diseases, frostbite, or external scars?
It's important to know that the noise from the boat's engine is quite loud due to years of fishing. Over time, almost every fisherman suffers from some degree of hearing impairment.
As for skin diseases, frostbite, and external injuries, they're even simpler. Skin diseases and frostbite are caused by the environment and external injuries, while external injuries are caused by being scratched by fish fins or shrimp claws, or being stung or bitten by aquatic animals. But where do you see any of these people with these characteristics?" Jiang Chengcheng noticed Ning Qier's doubts and, looking at the scenery rushing past the window, stated the basis for her guess.
"So that's how it is!" Hearing Jiang Chengcheng's words, Ning Qi'er suddenly understood and admired Jiang Chengcheng's meticulousness even more.
……
Ning Qier quickly followed Jiang Chengcheng's instructions to monitor the "fishermen" and communicate with those who fished every day.
As Jiang Chengcheng had predicted, those people would send someone to the vicinity of the Lu Group every so often. However, in order to avoid suspicion, they did not go inside, but mostly chose to contact people in private rooms at nearby restaurants.
Ning Qier somehow found a skilled hacker who directly hacked into the hotel's surveillance system and found evidence that the man and the Lu Group had accepted bribes and secretly colluded to sabotage the port construction.
Not long after Jiang Chengcheng had Ning Qier hand over the evidence to the authorities, the Lu Group was subjected to a thorough investigation by higher authorities for issues such as unclear tax records and incomplete documentation.
It's ridiculous that a large listed company could be investigated for something as simple as incomplete documentation. No one would believe there wasn't some deliberate targeting involved.
Jiang Chengcheng estimated that the Lu Group would be very busy during this period.
And she was right.
……
The Lu family.
"How could I have given birth to such an idiot! How could you be so cunning as to have to go and cause trouble for the officials?" Old Master Lu was sitting upright in an antique wooden chair made of rosewood, his expression agitated as he repeatedly tapped the ground with his cane.
He looked at his second son, whom he had with his true love, with a sense of disappointment and frustration.
Thinking back to how the other person was clever and astute when they were young, how come they've become more impulsive and prone to making mistakes as they've grown up?
Is it really true that "a child prodigy may not necessarily be a great adult"?
