Chapter 1874 Suspicious

Hearing Zhang Yu say that nothing was found, Zhang Yinling was inevitably a little disappointed. She pouted and said, "I saw you digging in, and I thought you would find something unexpected."

Zhang Yu immediately smiled and said, "This place is almost burned to the ground. What can we find?"

"It seems so." Zhang Yinling nodded.

Zhang Yu then looked at Lu Mei and said, "Sister Lu, why is the fire here so serious? Doesn't the winery have any fire awareness?"

"The firefighting work in the winery should be good, but Hua Yi and I are not here, and we don't know much about the situation here," Lu Mei said.

"Then who knows?" Zhang Yu said.

"Tang Xing, tell Mr. Zhang." Lu Mei looked at Tang Xing.

Tang Xing immediately said: "In our winery, there are more than 20 fire extinguishers, there are also fire hydrants, and there is fire-fighting water everywhere. It can be said that we are fully prepared."

"How could it still be burned like this?" Zhang Yu asked deliberately.

This is a winery, and someone used a formation to set fire to it. Once it burns down, everything will be in vain.

Tang Xing said: "The fire started at night. Everyone was asleep at that time, and there were two people on duty. We don't know how the fire started. After we were awakened, they all ran outside. But the fire was really strong. It was so big that one dormitory was completely engulfed by fire, killing two people and injuring several others. At that time, we were powerless to put out the fire, so we had to call the fire brigade.”

At the end of the speech, he seemed very sad and even shed tears. Obviously recalling the situation at that time, it must have been a tragedy.

Lu Mei and Mu Huayi also started sobbing. Mu Huayi flattened her mouth and said, "Uncle Zhao and Uncle Ma are burning so badly."

Lu Mei hugged her daughter's shoulders and said with choked sobs: "I never expected that something like this would happen suddenly."

Zhang Yu nodded slightly, pointed back to the courtyard, and said, "You guys also stay here at night?"

"Yes." Tang Xing nodded and said, "The winery is far from home, so Master built a dormitory here. It's on the right, next to the warehouse."

Good guy, when he heard this, Zhang Yu secretly said to himself that the fire started from the warehouse, and the dormitory was right next to the warehouse. Fortunately, there was someone on duty, otherwise, he would have killed all the people in the winery.

Because of this, Zhang Yu was even more puzzled as to how much hatred the person who set the fire had against Lu Mei's husband Mu Siwei, to be able to commit such a murderous act.

After hesitating for a moment, Zhang Yu decided to ask Mu Siwei. Perhaps this was the only clue to solve the mystery.

Zhang Yu said: "There is nothing to see here. Let's go and visit Brother Mu in the prison cell."

"Okay. I miss my dad too." Mu Huayi nodded and said with sobs.

Everyone got in the car and headed to the prison cell together.

After driving for more than forty minutes, we arrived at the place. Halfway through, Lu Mei also bought a lot of food and four cartons of cigarettes. It seems that she is also worried that her husband will be wronged inside.

They got out of the car, and Lu Mei walked in front, explaining to the people in the mail room of the prison room why they were there, and saying she wanted to see her husband, Mu Siwei.

The person in the mailroom made a phone call inside, and then said: "Only relatives can go in, and no one else is allowed in. Those who want to go in must register with their household registration book and ID card first. A lawyer is talking to Mu Siwei inside now. ,Wait a minute."

After hearing this, Lu Mei could only register with her daughter, but waited in the mail room.

After about ten minutes, a man and a woman walked out. The man was in a suit and tie, and the woman was also wearing business attire.

If it were somewhere else, you wouldn't be able to guess the other person's job, but here, it's clear that he is a lawyer.

A lawyer was also hired for Mu Siwei's case, but the lawyer said that it was not of much use and could only be settled with money.

A man and a woman came to the mail room and happened to see Lu Mei. Lu Mei had met that woman, who was the legal consultant of the ordering company. She remembered her surname was Cao. Lu Mei secretly wondered why she suddenly came here.

In the moment of suspicion, the middle-aged woman said first, "Hello, Ms. Lu."

As she said that, she took the initiative to reach out to Lu Mei.

"Hello." Lu Mei nodded, shook hands with the other party, and then said, "I wonder what brings Lawyer Cao here?"

"It's like this. Our Tianfeng Trading Company suffered heavy losses this time. There was a fire here, which caused our company to be unable to receive the goods. However, our subordinates received many orders from dealers and also had a lot of deposits. At present, all levels of distribution If the dealer claims compensation from us, our company cannot say that we will compensate the dealer before receiving compensation from your company. Therefore, the main purpose of coming here this time is to discuss the claim with Mr. Mu," Lawyer Cao said.

"Um." Lu Mei frowned. The fire incident, just for the winery workers' compensation, would have been fatal. Compensation has not been completely completed yet, but the workers who have been burned to death have been compensated first. The burnt ones are being treated, and two medical bills have been paid. You will have to continue to pay compensation in the future, basically for the rest of your life. Now I have three million in hand, which can probably solve the problem of burning employees.

But the winery had received a deposit of 5 million from Tianfeng Trading Company. If it could not deliver the goods as scheduled, it would have to pay liquidated damages and late fees. In other words, if it is a few days later, you will only be compensated for the late payment fee. If the goods are not delivered after the deadline, you will be compensated according to the total payment. This number is as high as 28 million. Where can the Mu family get it?

Lu Mei said helplessly: "The winery was burned down and the wine is gone. Our family really can't afford so much money now."

"Our company provided Mr. Mu with a repayment plan, but Mr. Mu refused. I think it would be better for Ms. Lu to wait and persuade Mr. Mu," Lawyer Cao said.

"Why don't you agree? Lawyer Cao, I don't know what kind of compensation plan it is?" Lu Mei asked quickly.

In her opinion, if there is a good plan that can temporarily solve the problem, then it is okay. At least let her husband come out first.

"You will know after you go in and see Mr. Mu." Lawyer Cao said.

"Okay, okay" Lu Mei nodded repeatedly.

Lawyer Cao continued: "By the way, there is one more thing. I originally planned to call you when I left the custody room, but I didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that I bumped into you here. That's it, our CEO Gao will be in Qianqian at six o'clock tonight. Mr. Bei is hosting a banquet, and I would like to invite Ms. Lu to sit down."

"This" Lu Mei hesitated for a moment, but thinking of the current situation, she could only nod and said: "Okay, I will be there on time."

"Then we'll see you then." Lawyer Cao nodded and smiled.

She then asked the guard to open the door and left the prison cell with the man.

Zhang Yu heard clearly the conversation between Lawyer Cao and Lu Mei.

Among them, Zhang Yu was particularly interested in the repayment plan mentioned by Lawyer Cao.

Because he and Lu Mei had the same idea. Mu Siwei was in a difficult situation right now. As long as the other party's proposal was fair, he should agree even if he suffered a little loss.

But why didn’t Mu Siwei agree? This plan was so harsh that Mu Siwei, who was in the prison cell, refused it directly.
