At this time, Da Manjin was facing industry-wide suppression. It seemed that overnight, Da Manjin had gone mad with criticism. Even if someone spoke a word of fairness, they were quickly drowned out by the berating voices. It appeared that some had already sensed something and were watching the excitement unfold. What was odd, however, was that none of the insults were about the quality of Da Manjin’s products, as there truly wasn’t an issue in that regard. The complaints were often about poor service, or something else along those lines. There were also accusations of employee exploitation, but even clarifications from the employees themselves were useless. Those who were uninformed might think these accusers were the company’s employees, which was truly exasperating. Clearly, this was Bai Heng’s doing. At the same time, almost the entire domestic jewelry industry seemed to be uniting subtly. They kept carrying out promotions, finding various reasons to drop prices. Since Da Manjin was the only one not holding promotions, it was one of the reasons everyone was watching the excitement. Online, people continued to discuss, eager to see when Da Manjin would hold a promotion. Speaking of which, from the time Da Manjin began its crazy expansion until now, it really hadn’t held any promotions. Many people harbored a resentment towards the wealthy, so at this time, no one spoke up for them. “What, someone is poaching our staff? Let them poach, just let them!” Zhao Guang had not expected that Bai Heng would target his elder sister as well. But what issue could possibly exist at his elder sister’s end? Not even outsiders were aware, let alone Zhao Guang. Frankly, his elder sister’s I Am Human Company merely served to run errands for Zhao Guang. Apart from holding shares, it generally involved purchasing some inexplicably mundane items. In fact, the proportion of various groceries and so-called artworks bought by his elder sister was even higher. So Bai Heng had no choice but to resort to poaching staff. Zhao Guang was truly not afraid of this, as those roles were easily filled by just about anyone. What difference would it make if a few spies were sent in? They would find out nothing in the end. Except for eventually realizing that their own person was a bit odd, they would gain nothing. “I know, but we can’t go on like this forever. You’d better hurry up; otherwise, they might find out some things ahead of time and be prepared, which wouldn’t be good.” “Don’t worry, don’t worry, I trust Guo Siyu.” Zhao Yan rolled her eyes. I trust Guo Siyu too, it’s you I don’t trust; you’re too careless. After hanging up the phone, Guo Siyu’s call came in. “How’s the progress?” Almost every day, Guo Siyu would report once or even several times. This time Guo Siyu was different; her tone was more relaxed: “It’s done. Our new company Haimanjin is established.” Haimanjin? What kind of name is that? Zhao Guang had thought the old-fashioned name Da Manjin was given by Guo Siyu’s father, Guo Anyan, but now he began to have his doubts. But it was just a name; it didn’t really matter. “Great, then start the transfer. By the way, have you established your channels over there? Don’t let them get blocked.” “No worries, everything is ready. The Fang family’s influence doesn’t reach overseas, and Liu’s Jewelry doesn’t compare in strength and influence to the big overseas companies, so they can’t affect them.” The other goods didn’t matter much, but emeralds were still very popular abroad. “That’s good, then proceed with the plan. Also, send someone over to take all the gold.” Zhao Guang planned to hand over the gold he had accumulated during this period to Guo Siyu to manage. This batch of gold was more than all the gold Zhao Guang had brought back previously. Such a large-scale dispatch of gold, Zhao Guang was not worried the higher-ups wouldn’t get anxious. As for causing a significant loss to the country, that was impossible. After all, the overseas market was so vast; that amount of gold wouldn’t cause any turmoil. If he wished, he could certainly provide even more to the country afterward. “Alright, but are you sure you want to go to such extremes? Jade doesn’t sell well overseas.” “Of course, if we do it, we’ll show them our determination. All personal assets need to be withdrawn. It’s the same with jade; if it doesn’t sell, we’ll just hold on to it. It won’t spoil anyway.” Guo Siyu was still somewhat worried, after all, this was indeed a big move. Usually, Guo Siyu felt she was a decisive, strong-willed woman, but when it came to such big issues, she realized she wasn’t bold enough. Her father was willing to delegate power to her, and Zhao Guang dared to follow through to the end, but Guo Siyu found she could only follow orders. To carry it out herself was absolutely impossible to the same extent. “Okay, I understand. So, in what form shall we sell the gold?” Zhao Guang thought for a moment, then said, “Direct gold sales seem a bit too direct. Let’s make some into jewelry and some into something like futures; there will always be buyers.” This was true; gold was always in demand. “Alright, I’ll give it a try. But it might not be easy to sell a large amount of jewelry.” Different regions have different aesthetics, and the price of gold jewelry would be even higher than the raw material itself. Thus, selling gold jewelry overseas was not always easy. On the other hand, gold bullion had no such barriers. “That’s the plan, get it done quickly. I want to see the faces of those people.” He knew that it couldn’t be that everyone at the top felt this way about him. But often, if a portion of them did, it could influence decisions at certain levels. At least, for now, Zhao Guang felt he probably hadn’t caught the attention of the highest-ups. With matters delegated, Zhao Guang calmed his mind to study and refine the art of insect control. Having spent time improving this spell for days, it was nearly at its full potential. After all, it was a simple spell; he believed that if not today, then surely by tomorrow, he would perfect it. He had waited until Guo Siyu’s arranged transport arrived, which finally roused Zhao Guang. “It’s about time, they’re quick. And that’s quite a number of trucks,” Zhao Guang chuckled, as many large trucks had arrived outside. This time, Guo Siyu and Zhao Yan had joined forces to temporarily conceal their operation. The method used was to send a large number of portable cabins, which left most people clueless about their intent. They wanted secrecy from above? Then let’s continue the secrecy, keep Bai Heng in the dark. By the time he found out, his reaction would surely be spectacular.
