Mistaking My Sister-In-Law for My Wife After Getting Drunk!

Chapter 370 Danger Ahead



```

Although annoyed, Cao Chuandong still picked up the phone.

As usual, he turned on the speakerphone.

The voice of his assistant came through in a panic, "Mr. Cao, it’s terrible, they’re poaching our workers?"

Cao Chuandong frowned, "Poaching workers? Who’s poaching? What on earth is going on, be more specific!"

The assistant immediately said, "It’s the labor bureau’s people poaching, claiming there’s new work at another electronics factory!"

Upon hearing this, Cao Chuandong laughed, disdainfully saying, "Let them poach, my electronics factory employs tens of thousands. Which other electronics factory in Jiangcheng can match the scale of mine? They couldn’t even poach one percent of my workers—that would mean I lose!"

The assistant said, "Mr. Cao, they’re planning to poach everyone!"

"What! That’s impossible!" Cao Chuandong gasped in disbelief.

"Mr. Cao, it’s true, they say a big boss has acquired Qingming Electronics and intends to poach all our workers," said the assistant.

"Wasn’t Qingming Electronics about to go bankrupt? Even if it’s acquired, it could only accommodate around a thousand people, that’s far from ten thousand," Cao Chuandong said in confusion.

He was aware of Qingming Electronics, after all, it was his competitor.

However, he had defeated them, and they were nearly bankrupt, with not many workers left in the factory.

Unexpectedly, it had been acquired.

And now they had come to poach workers from his factory; this acquirer was really something else.

"Mr. Cao, the thing is, they’re saying that Qingming Electronics is expanding and can completely accommodate ten thousand people, maybe even twenty thousand," the assistant said.

"Even if they’re expanding, it takes time. It can’t be done in just two or three months—at least they shouldn’t be able to poach workers right now," Cao Chuandong expressed his doubt again.

"Mr. Cao, they said that once a contract is signed, they will pay three months’ salary upfront; no work required for now, just stay at home and wait. When it’s time to start work, just show up. Several armored cash transport vehicles have arrived on site, distributing cash directly.

As soon as you sign the contract, you can receive three months’ salary, and now the workers are lining up to get paid," the assistant said.

"What!" Cao Chuandong exclaimed in shock, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, he leapt up, "You’re not fucking kidding me, are you? Which big boss is such a dumbass to poach people like this? This isn’t recruitment; this is straight-up charity."

Paying three months’ salary without requiring work indeed resembled charity, at least he had never seen anyone do this before.

"Boss, this is all true, I’m in no mood for jokes right now, nor would I dare to joke about such a thing with you. Let me show you the video," said the anxious assistant.

The assistant quickly switched to a high-definition video call.

On Cao Chuandong’s phone screen appeared the scene at the factory gates.

In the vacant space in front of the gate, there were seven or eight armored vehicles, with dozens of armed police standing guard nearby.

Bank employees were moving bundles of one hundred-yuan notes that looked like bricks from the armored vehicles, stacking them neatly on a table next to them.

Behind the tables, over twenty bank employees were rapidly counting the cash.

In front of the tables, a thick crowd of workers was lining up in dozens of queues, waiting to sign contracts and receive their money.

The scene was striking.

"Fuck!"

Seeing this, Cao Chuandong’s face changed color.

His arrogance stemmed from his control over the employment of tens of thousands of people.

If these workers were poached, no one would depend on him for their livelihood, and the city government would definitely deal with him.

Realizing this, Cao Chuandong hung up the call and rushed outside.

He didn’t even have time to say goodbye to his friends, and he even forgot to grab the cape he must wear every time he made an appearance.

"This..." n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Everyone exchanged glances, not knowing what to say.

```

After leaving the hotel, Cao Chuandong immediately got into his car, speeding and swerving left and right, hoping to reach the factory as quickly as possible to stop the poaching.

But after just three streets, he was stopped by a traffic cop.

Cao Chuandong flew into a rage, "Kid, I am Cao Chuandong, you fucking dare to stop me?"

The traffic cop was a newcomer on the job, full of aspirations to do his duty well, and he said seriously, "I don’t care if you’re Cao Chuandong or Cao Chuanwest, if you’re speeding, I have to issue a ticket. Pull over immediately and show your ID, driver’s license, and vehicle license!"

Cao Chuandong’s face turned iron blue with anger.

What on earth was going on today, he thought, it was one thing for Xu Yang and Jiang Yuheng, with their types of status, not to give way to him for a private room; after all, one was a billionaire, and the other a top-tier second-generation rich.

Even the city leaders not helping him could be overlooked, after all, they had their status, and sometimes their lack of assistance was understandable.

But this insignificant traffic cop in front of him, what the hell, daring to ask him for his ID, driver’s license, and vehicle license.

You have to know, even the head of the traffic bureau has to be polite in front of him.

Right then, Cao Chuandong decided he had to teach this little cop a lesson.

Otherwise, if word of this got out, where would he put his old face?

"You just wait for me!" Cao Chuandong took out his phone directly and dialed the head of the traffic bureau’s number.

"I’m telling you again, get out of the car now and show your ID, driver’s license, and vehicle license, or else you’re obstructing official business. I’ll take you back, and it won’t be as simple as a fine and point deductions!" the young cop said.

"You still want to fine me and deduct points? The world must be upside down. Do you know who I am calling? I am calling your bureau chief!"

Cao Chuandong was so angry his nose was almost crooked. He turned on the speakerphone, shook the phone in front of the traffic cop so he could see clearly whom he was calling.

"Even if you call our bureau chief, it’s no use." The young cop, believing he had done nothing wrong, remained expressionless.

"Fine, fine, fine, just you wait. I hope you can still talk so tough when you hear your bureau chief’s voice."

Cao Chuandong was furious.

But the phone just gave off the busy tone for a lot of rings, and no one answered.

Finally, it automatically hung up.

"What’s the deal, is that guy so busy that he won’t even answer my calls?"

Cao Chuandong’s complexion shifted subtly, and he dialed again.

But this time, there was no busy tone; it went straight to a message saying the line was busy.

If Cao Chuandong didn’t realize what was happening at that moment, he’d be an idiot.

Obviously, he had been blocked.

That wasn’t a good sign at all.

They were ignoring him, which meant he was in danger.

So, he dared not be brazen any longer, but instead obediently got out of the car, took out his ID, driver’s license, and vehicle license, and handed them to the cop to check.

The cop checked them and sneered, "And here you were playing tough with me. I may not have been on the job long, but I’ve seen plenty like you. In the end, those who should be fined get fined, and those who should be docked points get docked points. You were speeding, that’s a thousand yuan fine, and five points deducted. Make sure you pay the fine on time.

If you’re not satisfied with how I’ve handled this, you can lodge a complaint. Remember my badge number!"

The young cop issued Cao Chuandong a ticket, pointed at the badge number on his left chest, got on his motorbike, and continued his patrol.

Cao Chuandong trembled with rage.

Ever since he had made his fortune, he, Cao Chuandong, had never again suffered such humiliation!

Taking deep breaths to calm himself, Cao Chuandong got back into his car and continued on to the factory.

This time he dared not speed, lest he get stopped again and waste even more time.

If he didn’t manage to reach the factory in time to stop the headhunting, it would really be bad news.
