Factory Director Xu's eyes filled with a bit more fear. He tried to look at the person speaking, but could only catch a glimpse of their feet from the corner of his eye.
He had already guessed what the other party wanted to say.
But he was completely powerless to stop it.
Normally, people from the Su Corporation rarely came to the factory. Even if someone did, they would turn a blind eye to some matters because his sister was Xu Junhua.
That was why his courage grew with time.
At this moment, the middle-aged man's eyes showed obvious anger. "Factory Director Xu is a scoundrel. Not only does he skim off the top at every turn,"
"He also pockets the wages he withholds from the employees."
"Not only are there deductions for various reasons, but even employees who have already resigned are still on the factory's payroll."
"The Su Group offers high salaries and good benefits to us employees. He exploits this to continuously attract new employees, but after joining, they quickly leave because they can't stand his harshness."
"The employees who have resigned are still listed on the payroll. The factory's reported staff number is over fifteen hundred."
"But look at how many people we have here on site?"
"This is all the employees we have. He makes us work fourteen hours a day. The originally agreed-upon eight-hour workday has been entirely piled onto us with two shifts, essentially making us do double the work."
"But all the wages end up in his hands."
Mu Feng lifted his foot.
Factory Director Xu roared furiously, "You're talking nonsense!"
"I never did anything like that. The remaining employees are not working today; they are resting. I know your family's circumstances, and I know your home address."
"You'd better not say things you shouldn't."
His words carried a clear threat.
Everyone present heard him clearly, and their expressions changed noticeably.
The middle-aged man roared angrily, "Don't try to threaten me with that rubbish. Since this young brother dared to beat you into this state, it means he's not afraid of you at all, and it's likely that you'll be kicked out of the factory starting today."
"I don't want to work here anymore anyway. If the factory remains the same as it is now, I'd rather find a job with a lower salary than endure this kind of treatment."
"Young brother, you can ask everyone present how we usually work in this factory."
Perhaps because of his lead, everyone present showed righteous indignation.
"That's right, this guy usually treats us like beasts of burden."
"At first, we didn't know about this, but one time he got drunk and let it slip to some security guards, and those guards spread the word."
"That's when we realized why we worked so hard but our wages never increased, and even some inspectors would say we were ungrateful for the blessings we received."
"Turns out we were being treated as two people for the price of one."
A cold expression flickered across Mu Feng's face, and his gaze fell upon Factory Director Xu.
"I'll give you one chance to confess honestly."
"If you're man enough to admit it, all you have to do is spit out everything you've swallowed, and you can leave peacefully."
"Otherwise, I will make you pay a hundredfold."
Factory Director Xu gritted his teeth and said, "What if you report this to Director Su? I can simply say that those employees have already resigned."
"I've just been too busy these past two days to submit their resignation notices."
To prevent anyone from reporting this, he had prepared resignation letters for them all along, but without dates.
It was just a matter of filling in a date.
He had already made enough money. Half of the factory's employee salaries fell into his account every month.
That was a considerable sum of money, enough for him to leave at any time.
Moreover, with his sister at the Su family, even if Su Nianxue found out, she couldn't directly prosecute him, or it would create a complete rift and hatred between them.
It was precisely this confidence that emboldened him to act recklessly.
A cold glint appeared in Mu Feng's eyes. "Since you don't know how to appreciate a favor when it's offered, then prepare to face punishment!"
With that, he ignored Factory Director Xu and turned to the middle-aged man.
"Take me to the workshop directly."
The middle-aged man was stunned. He had been waiting to see how Mu Feng would make Factory Director Xu pay a hundredfold, but he hadn't expected Mu Feng to no longer want to deal with the matter.
This made him feel a sense of crisis. If Mu Feng were to wash his hands of it.
The Su family likely wouldn't take any further drastic action.
Then he probably wouldn't be able to continue working at the factory peacefully. Factory Director Xu would definitely find people to trouble him.
Just as he was sighing in disappointment.
Suddenly, a piercing scream was heard.
His gaze snapped towards the source of the sound.
Everyone else felt the same as him. Hearing the sudden cry, they all turned their attention to Factory Director Xu.
Factory Director Xu had collapsed on the ground, his muscles convulsing uncontrollably, foam spewing from his mouth, and his eyes rolling back.
At this moment, he felt pain like a tidal wave washing over him.
Wave after wave of agony made him wish for death.
Death might offer some release.
He saw Mu Feng's wry smile and was suddenly shocked.
Was this the price Mu Feng spoke of?
The thought had barely formed before it was confirmed.
"Please, spare me!"
"I promise to return all the profits I've pocketed right now."
"Please, don't let me suffer like this anymore, I can't take it."
As he spoke, he flipped over and knelt on the ground, kowtowing towards Mu Feng.
Mu Feng said calmly, "I gave you a chance earlier, and you didn't cherish it."
"Consider that money as your funeral expenses."
"After all, you are currently an employee of the company. After your death, the company will naturally provide some compensation."
"The matters you mentioned will also be clarified. Since you are dead, your epitaph must be written clearly, and the company will not pursue the money; consider it a funeral gift."
Factory Director Xu cried out in agony, "My sister is Xu Junhua. If anything happens to me, she will never let you off!"
A mocking smile appeared on Mu Feng's face.
