Hong Kong Variety Show: From Little Brother to Big Boss

After scanning the records from April to now, Liu Xu slowly closed the account book and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was having a silent battle in his heart.

His memory was exceptionally clear, for during his last inspection he had seen with his own eyes that neither the raw water treatment plant nor the osmosis equipment needed to be replaced.

Therefore, there are obvious problems with the deposit and withdrawal information recorded in the account book.

The cost of maintenance and equipment renewal totaled 180,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the 750,000 Hong Kong dollars in April became 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. In addition, the information in May was also problematic.

In other words, in the short three months that Liu Xu took over the water plant, Sun Dong used his power to quietly embezzle a huge sum of at least 500,000 Hong Kong dollars.

This amount of money is a huge fortune for anyone, let alone in such a short period of time.

At the same time, Sun Dong carefully observed Liu Xu's reaction.

Noticing that the young boss suddenly closed his eyes and fell silent while carefully reading the account book, Sun Dong secretly speculated that perhaps Liu Xu did not notice the trick in the account book.

This made him secretly happy, and at the same time, his tense nerves finally relaxed.

However, just when Sun Dong thought he could get away with it, Liu Xu suddenly opened his eyes.

His eyes were calm and deep, as if he could see into people's hearts. He gently waved to Sun Dong, motioning him to come over to him.

Seeing this, although Sun Dong was still a little nervous, he quickly straightened the collar of his clothes and tried to make himself look calmer.

He walked calmly to Liu Xu and stood in front of him, forcing a confident smile on his face:

"Boss, if you find anything in the account book that you don't understand, just ask me. I will tell you every detail of it, without reservation..."

However, before Sun Dong could finish his words, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his chest.

He seemed to be hit by an invisible force. He instantly lost balance and fell backwards.

After landing and sliding for a distance, he hit the wall hard, making a dull sound.

At this moment, Sun Dong's face turned as pale as paper. The severe pain almost suffocated him. He stared at Liu Xu in disbelief, his eyes full of fear and confusion.

Liu Xu slowly walked in front of Sun Dong, his expression calm, without even taking a breath, as if the kick just now had nothing to do with him.

He said calmly, "I remember that when I said goodbye and walked to the gate of the water plant, I gave you a detailed introduction to my identity, right?"

"How dare you falsify accounts and take my money right under my nose? Do you think you are lucky or do you simply think I am easy to bully?"

Without waiting for Sun Dong's reply, Liu Xu turned around and ordered, "Asheng, help me drag him to the open space in front of the water plant."

"Ayi, go find Wang Zhiwen at the door and ask him to help me gather all the water plant employees to the open space at the front door."

Upon hearing this, Tian Yangsheng knocked Sun Dong, who was about to beg for mercy, unconscious with one palm, then effortlessly grabbed his trouser leg and dragged him out the door. Tian Yangyi turned around and walked quickly towards the door.

Liu Xu waited quietly in the office for ten minutes and finally received a call back from Scorpion Tail.

After learning that Sun Dong was just an ordinary middle-class family and his son was just a PTU officer in the police force without any backing, Liu Xu sneered disdainfully:

"You dare to provoke people from the society without any background. You are just like an old man eating arsenic and thinking his life is too long."

In any country, the operating application conditions for water plants are extremely stringent.

The fact that Boss Lin owns a water plant is enough to show that before he fell into poverty, his relationship with the foreigners might not be very strong, but at least he had someone protecting him.

The person who protected him not only helped Boss Lin obtain the license for the water plant, but also made it so that the members of the community did not dare to cause trouble for the water plant easily.

Perhaps Sun Dong had stayed in a comfortable environment for too long, which made him forget the cruelty of the public security in Hong Kong under the rule of the foreigners, which made him dare to reach out to Liu Xu's wallet.

Liu Xu thought to himself: "Let me help this greedy Director Sun and recall the arrogance and cruelty of the society members."

In the open space in front of the gate, hundreds of water plant employees were gathered in groups of three or five, occasionally glancing secretly at the acting factory director Sun Dong who was lying on the ground.

They were talking to each other and whispering about something. However, when Liu Xu appeared in front of them, the scene immediately became silent.

Liu Xu looked at the different expressions of the crowd and smiled warmly: "Don't be afraid, everyone. Although I have been involved in a gang, I am still very kind to my own employees."

"The reason I gathered everyone here today is to show you my work style in front of you, so that no one will be confused about their position in the future."

As he spoke, Liu Xu pointed at the unconscious Sun Dong on the ground and continued, "I guess I don't need to introduce this person to you all, right?"

"Although I was not very familiar with Mr. Sun, when I took over the water plant, I did not dismiss him but let him continue to serve as the director."

Liu Xu's eyes were like torches, and he scanned the people present sharply, his tone still maintaining an unquestionable seriousness:

"This not only represents my trust in him, but can also be regarded as a heavy favor, isn't it?"

Seeing everyone nodding in agreement, Liu Xu's face suddenly flushed with indignation. He cleared his throat and continued his speech:

"However, this Director Sun is truly an ungrateful and ungrateful person!"

"He tampered with the account books. In just three months, he used various excuses to embezzle a huge sum of more than 500,000 Hong Kong dollars from the water plant!"

When the people in the audience heard this number, some had greedy gleams in their eyes, some had an expression of incredible shock on their faces, and others clenched their fists, their expressions filled with righteous indignation.

After remembering those employees with greed in their eyes, Liu Xu's tone changed from serious to relaxed with a hint of eeriness.

"You may not know that in our industry, 500,000 Hong Kong dollars can buy ten lives."

"I'm not a greedy person. I won't take back the 500,000 Hong Kong dollars. However, this fee should be regarded as the money I paid to Director Sun to save his life."

Liu Xu clapped his hands. After the sound, Tian Yangsheng and Tian Yangyi worked together to move a water tank filled with rainwater from the factory.

The reason why the water plant has water tanks is because Hong Kong Island is an isolated area and water resources are scarce. The large and small water tanks in the plant are all prepared to store water during rainy days.

That day Yang and the other two placed the water tank in front of everyone, and Liu Xu continued: "Now, I need sixteen employees to help me sink it into this water tank."

Sun Dong, who had already regained consciousness, knelt down and kowtowed to beg for mercy. His forehead slammed heavily on the cold ground, and each impact was accompanied by his trembling plea for mercy:

'"Mr. Liu, I was wrong. I really know I was wrong! Please forgive me this time! Give me a chance to make a new start. I will never make the same mistake again..."

"I am willing to... I am willing to return all the money, even double it! Mr. Liu, please don't do this to me..."
