Chapter 189 – 189 Supplementary Provisions
Chen Yu’s face was also filled with gratification, as he pulled Tong Ya’s hand and leaned to sit on the sofa together.
Tuan Tuan, after all, had a foundation in dance, and with Tong Ya’s instruction, her dance posture could now be considered quite accomplished.
Chen Guang and Li Lan also ran out from their room.
In this period, the couple had been worried sick, especially after learning that Chen Yu had been called away by Zhou Shengtao, they were even more scared.
Since childhood, Chen Yu had always been an incredibly honest child, and after graduating from university, he had worked steadily in a company, never having undertaken any dangerous tasks.
How could they not worry when he was suddenly summoned by Zhou Shengtao?
However, seeing Chen Yu return safe and sound now, they too were relieved.
Just then, Chen Yu’s phone suddenly started ringing insistently.
He had just picked up the call when his brow furrowed involuntarily.
“There’s a bit of trouble at the factory, I need to go over there!”
He said this in a rush and then hurried out the door.
The expansion of the entire factory had been completed, and what had looked like a disorderly construction site was now extremely tidy.
All the factory buildings and workshops had entered normal operations, and Hou Jianchang had also hired a large number of workers.
When Chen Yu arrived, he found a huge crowd of people standing on the empty ground of the factory, each one looking fierce, all of them carrying various types of weapons.
The man leading them was even holding a big pile of documents, looking extremely domineering.
“Hou Jianchang, I don’t care who you sold this factory to, but I just have one question for you, can the debt we owed before be settled now?”
Hou Jianchang stood there, his face full of anger. By his expression, he obviously did not acknowledge any so-called debts.
Chen Yu’s brow furrowed as he hurried over.
Seeing Chen Yu approaching, Hou Jianchang suddenly seemed somewhat embarrassed.
“I’m sorry, Mr. Chen, I’ve troubled you again!”
“What exactly happened?” Chen Yu was completely in the dark. He had previously checked all of Hou Jianchang’s accounts, and apart from the money he had paid off for him before, it seemed there were no other debts.
Now, how could suddenly a whole bunch of people appear, asking for their debts to be paid?
Hou Jianchang’s face turned red.
“It was a contract I signed a long time ago, but I didn’t notice the supplementary clause in it, which said that if my factory went bankrupt, I had to pay tenfold compensation.”
Chen Yu’s eyes filled with disbelief. That wasn’t any supplementary clause; it was more like an extortionate demand.
Tenfold compensation was outright robbery!
[System Prompt: Many of the supplementary clauses in the contract are illegal agreements and do not need to be adhered to.]
Chen Yu was well aware of this logic, but in this world, many things happen without regard for whether you comply with regulations.
Many people are only interested in the outcome.
Moreover, the fact that they had brought so many people today suggested an attitude of if you don’t give the money, you’ll pay with your life.
If Hou Jianchang didn’t pay up, these guys might just break his leg on the spot.
“Is there any way to amend the contract?” Chen Yu quietly asked in his mind.
Only by changing the supplementary clauses in the contract could he take control of the situation now.
[Yes, but it will cost ten points.]
Chen Yu couldn’t care about that now and immediately chose to agree.
