Chapter 2409: Compensation

After getting rid of all those people, Qiao Mei knocked on the armrest of the chair and said, “Is it a holiday today? All of you, get back to work.”

The remaining staff members in the workshop instantly disappeared and there was no sound apart from the hum of the machines. No one dared to speak. None of them dared to make Qiao Mei unhappy at this moment.

All the long-time employees knew Qiao Mei’s temper and the new employees had also heard a little about her “antics”. In short, Qiao Mei was the very last person that one should trifle with in the capital!

After Qiao Mei returned to the office, she thought long and hard and felt that it was necessary to have a good chat with the Qian family members. At this moment, Da Zhuang called her using the phone in the security officer’s booth.

“Sister-in-law, they refuse to leave. They just stand at the main door and keep crying, making it look like someone has died in our factory. There are already many people gathered outside,” Da Zhuang said angrily.

Qiao Mei was still worried about not knowing how to find them! She immediately said, “Invite Old Madam Qian in nicely. Make sure you don’t hurt her. Let the rest of them continue crying.”

To capture a thief, one must first capture the leader. It was most likely Old Madam Qian who came up with the idea for the Qian family to cause trouble at the factory. As long as she could settle Old Madam Qian, everything would be fine.

Before long, Old Madam Qian was carried into Qiao Mei’s office by Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang. Yes, they carried her in. Old Madam Qian sat on a chair while Da Zhuang and Xiao Zhuang carried her in as if they were carrying a sedan chair.

“What are you going to do to me!” Old Madam Qian pointed at Qiao Mei and roared at her.

“I won’t dare to do anything. So many people outside saw you come in with their own eyes. How can I dare to attack you?” Qiao Mei said with a smile.

“Then why do you want to see me?” Old Madam Qian looked at Qiao Mei suspiciously.

“I hear from Qian’e that your family members want to work in the factory. Since you’re still not satisfied with the number of relatives that Qian’e has hired in the factory, then tell me exactly how many positions do you need?” Qiao Mei asked.

Old Madam Qian did not quite believe her eyes when she saw Qiao Mei’s attitude at this moment. In the past, whenever she saw Qiao Mei, the young girl always looked very fierce, as if she wanted to swallow the old lady’s entire family alive. Why was Qiao Mei being so nice today? Could it be that Qiao Mei was afraid because Qian’e was now very influential?

“Around 20 plus!” Old Madam Qian said firmly.

“What I want to tell you is that I have the final say in all staff matters. This is my factory, it does not belong to Qian’e. She’s just my employee. Actually, her salary is the same as the other employees and it’s not a lot,” Qiao Mei said.

“How is that possible! She has already bought three houses!” Old Madam Qian said as she raised three fingers.

It looked like Old Madam Qian had come prepared.

“If you’ve done your checks, you’ll know that those properties belong to my mother and me. They don’t belong to Qian’e. It’s just that Qian’e doesn’t have a place to live, so we have rented the houses to her,” Qiao Mei said.

“She’s alone! Why does she need so many houses!” Old Madam Qian still did not believe what Qiao Mei said.

“Maybe she wants to maintain a facade that she’s a rich person,” Qiao Mei said.

“Impossible! You’re lying to me!” Old Madam Qian said loudly.

“It’s up to you whether you believe me or not. Look at this factory. These new machines are all imported from overseas. Do you think Qian’e has the ability to buy these things? I still have the invoices for the machines here. Do I need to show you how much they cost?” Qiao Mei said as she waved the invoices in her hand.

Old Madam Qian snatched the invoices and looked at them. It took her a long time to count the zeros in the various figures and she finally believed what Qiao Mei said.

She only felt resentment towards Qian’e at the moment. If she had known about this earlier, she would not have caused such a ruckus for so many days!

“Alright, I won’t go after you for the medical fees anymore, but my request is that you don’t harass Qian’e anymore,” Qiao Mei said domineeringly.

“Qian’e is forever a member of my family! Even if she dies! Why should we let you dictate whether we can keep in touch! What you’re doing is separating the flesh and blood of our family!” Old Madam Qian said agitatedly.

“Then let’s settle the score properly. We have four injured people here. Their medical fees, nutrition fees, and compensation for loss of income and emotional damage come up to about 10,000 dollars. This is just the minimum amount. I also want you to compensate us for the factory having to stop work this morning. The total amount is around 50,000 dollars. How do you want to pay me?” Qiao Mei asked.

“You’re trying to rob me! This is called a scam!” Old Madam Qian said.

“We can go through the proper legal procedures to see if it’s considered a scam. Our factory has a legal department. Do you want me to ask the staff to come over?” Qiao Mei asked.

Old Madam Qian looked at Qiao Mei’s expression and it did not look like she was lying. The old lady immediately felt a little defeated. She did not even have 500 dollars to her name, what more 50,000 dollars.
