Hong Xing is bringing over thirty people to cause trouble?
Liang Liang was shocked. How dare he? Did he already know that Yang Jian had not joined the Dong Sheng Group?
Even if Yang Jian wasn't at the company, with the financial resources of Dong Sheng Group, it wouldn't be difficult to crush Hong Xing.
With no time to think, Liang Liang immediately ordered the workers to stop working and gather in the canteen to avoid any innocent casualties.
Then, he released the two Tibetan Mastiffs kept in cages. They were held by handlers, ready to attack anyone who dared to rush in.
All ten security guards put on safety helmets and armed themselves with two-meter-long steel forks, lying in ambush at the entrance.
After calling Lu Feng, Liang Liang himself also grabbed a steel fork and stood guard at the entrance. Distant help couldn't solve an immediate crisis. As the deputy manager of Dong Sheng Company, he couldn't evade his responsibilities at this moment; he had to stand his ground.
There was a five-shot shotgun on the construction site, but he dared not use it. As the legitimate party, even if something happened, the company would cover it. Using a gun would strip him of his legal standing.
Five minutes later, two SUVs and three minivans roared in. The lead SUV directly smashed through the retractable gate of the construction site, and the other vehicles drove directly into the compound.
Seeing this, Liang Liang had to move aside. With a wave of his hand, the two Tibetan Mastiffs charged out, barking ferociously at the vehicles.
Faced with such fierce Tibetan Mastiffs, the people in the cars dared not get out. However, they had clearly assessed the situation and had countermeasures ready.
"Bang, bang."
Two gunshots rang out, and the two Tibetan Mastiffs fell. The assailants used shotguns, which did not kill the mastiffs, but due to the close range, the mastiffs' heads were hit. They were severely injured, lying on the ground twitching uncontrollably.
The other side had guns, at least two of them. Liang Liang knew his side had no chance of winning and that a confrontation would result in deaths.
"Quick, retreat."
Liang Liang gave the order, and the security guards quickly rushed into the guardhouse and locked the door.
Now, they could only defend themselves and stall for time. Lu Feng was on his way with reinforcements, and the police had also been called. In at most five minutes, the patrol officers from Luogang would arrive.
The attackers all got out of their vehicles. They were uniformly dressed in camouflage, wearing safety helmets and black masks, and carrying pickaxes. Instead of attacking Liang Liang and his men, they stormed into the workshops and began to furiously smash the purchased machinery and equipment. The electrical facilities were also damaged.
Two minutes later, the group quickly retreated. All the vehicles had no license plates.
Only then did Liang Liang and his men dare to come out. The equipment piled in the yard and inside the workshops was smashed beyond recognition.
The patrol officers arrived shortly after, taking photos and surveying the scene, while also questioning and taking statements from Liang Liang and the others.
Liang Liang did not reveal that Hong Xing had led the attack because doing so would endanger Tian Jun. Informing on a rival was a grave taboo in the underworld. If the police investigated Tian Jun, Hong Xing and his associates would surely kill Tian Jun.
Yu Feng arrived with Lu Feng, and upon seeing the devastated workshop, they were both furious.
The equipment was worth hundreds of thousands, and little of it could be repaired. The only fortunate thing was that there were no casualties.
After the patrol officers left, Yu Feng called Liang Liang and Lu Feng into her office alone.
"Liang Liang, Lu Feng told me you knew in advance that someone was coming to cause damage?"
Yu Feng's face was ashen. The losses today were immense. The two Tibetan Mastiffs alone cost over eighteen thousand yuan, not to mention the hundreds of thousands in machinery.
More importantly, it delayed the production schedule of the commercial concrete company. The earthwork for the Nancheng real estate project was completed, and large-scale foundation construction was about to begin, requiring concrete from this facility.
Currently, all construction projects in the Chengguan area still used small mixers to batch concrete on-site, which was very inefficient and environmentally unfriendly. This commercial concrete station was the only one under construction in Chengguan and even the entire Xinhe District.
Once this commercial concrete station was completed, it would greatly accelerate the construction speed of projects in the region.
Yu Feng had originally planned for the Nancheng Phase II project to complete its entire foundation construction in one month. Now, that plan was ruined, and they would have to continue using on-site mixing, delaying the project by at least another month.
Liang Liang felt a bit guilty. "A good friend of mine informed me in advance, but they came too quickly, and I didn't have time to organize defenses. Moreover, they had firearms, and I was afraid of casualties, so I gathered everyone to hide."
"Forget it, it's not your fault. It's fortunate that there were no casualties. Lu Feng, how do you think we should handle this?"
"Since we know Hong Xing was behind it, let's take care of him. If this isn't handled properly, the commercial concrete station can't operate."
Lu Feng had been holding back. This was the most serious safety incident since he became the security manager. If he couldn't handle this, it would prove his incompetence. Not only would he lose face at the company, but he wouldn't be able to get by in Chengguan either.
Yu Feng, however, shook her head. "It's not that simple. Hong Xing is just a thug from a small place like Luogang. He absolutely wouldn't have the guts to carry out such a large-scale operation today. I suspect it was Old Gui who instigated him."
"Why?"
"Old Gui has been trying to negotiate a partnership with me recently, demanding to contract甲方 projects like windows, doors, fire protection, and landscaping. He's also been tentatively harassing construction units. I suspect he already knows that Yang Jian hasn't joined our company."
"You mean this operation today is a show of force from him?"
"It should be. If I'm not mistaken, he'll contact me again in the next couple of days and put pressure on me. As long as I don't agree, or if we don't take any action, events like today will continue to happen."
Yu Feng's intention in saying this was also clear: it was now up to Lu Feng.
"Then what should we do? Sister Feng, you decide. Should we go after Hong Xing or directly confront Old Gui?"
"I don't know what to do. You are the security manager, and this is your responsibility to consider. The company can only provide you with sufficient funds and legal support."
Yu Feng wouldn't directly order him to do anything illegal. If something went wrong, she would be implicated.
"Alright, I'll take care of it. My plan is to get rid of Hong Xing first, to let Old Gui know that even without my master, Dong Sheng Company is not something he can covet."
Lu Feng's fighting spirit had been fully ignited. He couldn't let his boss down without achieving something.
Liang Liang observed from the side, realizing that Yu Feng was using and manipulating Lu Feng, encouraging him to take extreme action to counterattack Old Gui while refusing to take responsibility herself.
This female boss was also a heartless and unfeeling person. Although she was generous with money, she didn't truly consider them as brothers. Liang Liang finally understood that he and his group were merely her pawns and cannon fodder, and she would abandon them without hesitation if they were in danger.
It felt more reassuring to follow Brother Yang Jian. He would charge forward himself in times of danger and wouldn't hoard opportunities for profit.
