Chapter 2258: Dealing with the Greenhouses
Time was of the essence and this was an important task, so Qiao Mei did not stand on ceremony with Xia Wen. They had to find the real culprit as soon as possible, otherwise Li Gui would really have to spend the rest of her life in prison.
Before Qiao Mei hung up the phone, Chi Ze suddenly rushed into the room. Qiao Mei did not fault him for this. Chi Ze and his guys had worked for her for many years and these people knew her habits. Chi Ze would not act so impulsively unless it was something important.
"Bad news, Sister-in-law. Something has happened!" Chi Ze said in a trembling voice. His hands also could not stop trembling and he was drenched in sweat, looking as if he had just been fished out of water.
Only Xia Wen and Xia Mao would have news about Xia Zhe. The only urgent issues that Chi Ze could encounter was related to the company. As long as her family members were not affected, everything else was secondary. Even if the company went bankrupt, she was fine with it.
Qiao Mei poured a glass of water for Chi Ze and said, "Take your time to speak. Don't be anxious."
"Our vegetables in the suburbs are all dead! All the vegetables wilted overnight and much of the land cannot be used anymore. Someone has put poison in the soil as well! It's hard to say if we can still grow vegetables in the future!" Chi Ze said.
Xia Wen could also hear what Chi Ze said on the other end of the phone. He immediately said, "I'll go to the vegetable fields to take a look. You should rest well at home. You have just returned home, so you have to take care of your health."Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com fine. Eldest Brother, you should go and investigate the matter which we just discussed. I'll handle this issue," Qiao Mei said with a smile.
As the reservoir took up a big area, Qiao Mei did not extend the fence to enclose it within the boundary of the vegetable fields. Because of that, many villagers would secretly come to Qiao Mei's place to get water.
"Tell the surrounding villagers about this matter. If they suffer any losses, let's note it down and pay them off first. All the claimants must leave their thumb prints and photos as evidence so that we can ask the real culprit for compensation later," Qiao Mei said.
To her, the losses in the vegetable fields were not a big deal. It would only affect her for a short period of time. However, to the villagers, it was a devastating piece of news. Qiao Mei was willing to pay first, but she intended to make the real culprit pay back double the amount to her.
"Alright," Sun Tian said.
"Let's suspend business for now and tabulate how many orders we have to fulfill." Qiao Mei waved her hand and Chi Ze immediately came forward. She continued, "Work with him to transport the vegetables from the south as an emergency measure."
"Yes, alright," Chi Ze said.
Qiao Mei looked around and then said, "Chi Ze, ask my brother-in-law to send some people here to expand this place for us. Buy all the land nearby and make this whole area exclusive to us. In the future, outsiders are not allowed to enter this area anymore."
"I understand. I'll do it immediately." After saying that, Chi Ze went to the office to make a call to make the arrangements.
"Uncle Sun, are there any outsiders recently? Or suspicious people?" Qiao Mei asked.
"There are many outsiders. Every day, there are many people who come to deliver stuff, as well as the delivery men who come to pick up the goods. There are also... there are also some young and beautiful girls from the nearby villages," Sun Tian said embarrassedly.
