Time Travel Article: My parents divorced at the beginning

Chapter 161 Payback 1

"It's only natural to pay back your debts. Old man, I'm in charge. I'll pay you back today!"

As soon as Gu Qingyu said this, the surroundings suddenly became quiet. No one expected Gu Qingyu to suddenly speak, and swear so confidently that he would pay back the money.

The old Party Secretary didn't believe a single word Gu Qingyu said. He asked disdainfully, "Haha, little girl, can you make the decision?"

"Of course I can make the decision!" Gu Qingyu answered loudly after hearing this.

"Didn't you hear Director Zhang introduce me just now? I'm the new director and secretary of the Red Star Food Factory. Today's my first day on the job!"

Gu Qingyu's confident look made the old branch secretary wonder in his heart: Isn't this girl found by Zhang Huaimin to take the blame and fool people?

Gu Qingyu had been observing the old branch secretary's facial expression. Seeing him glance at her from time to time, then frown and think, she suddenly figured out what went wrong!

It’s because she is too young that people don’t trust her!

Ever since she made achievements in Ping'an County, no one has questioned her ability because of her youth. If Gu Qingyu hadn't always looked at her when she saw the old branch secretary, you really wouldn't have thought it was because of this reason.

Once you know where the problem is, the rest will be easy.

"As the saying goes, ambition transcends age! Don't think I'm trying to fool you just because I'm young!"

"I wonder if you know about the mushroom base in Ping'an County. This is the project I led!"

As soon as Gu Qingyu said this, the onlookers started talking. Everyone in Xinhu City knew that Ping'an County had become the richest county in Xinhu City and even in the entire Jiang Province in recent years thanks to artificial mushroom cultivation!

"Wow, I didn't expect that the person leading the mushroom cultivation in Ping'an County is so young. He is really promising!" Someone sighed as he looked at Gu Qingyu's young face.

"In that case, Red Star Food Factory really has a capable person!"

The old branch secretary was also extremely surprised after hearing what Gu Qingyu said. He looked at Gu Qingyu uncertainly, not knowing whether what he said was true or false.

"Everything you said is true!"

"Of course! I haven't returned my employment notice. If you don't believe me, let's go to the office and have a good chat. We can also discuss the repayment. What do you think?"

Gu Qingyu looked so frank that the old branch secretary believed him to some extent. However, he still had to look into it, as the Red Star Food Factory had no credibility in his eyes.

The old branch secretary waved his hand at the villagers who were surrounding Gu Qingyu and the others, and asked them to disperse.

He walked towards Gu Qingyu and said to her, "I will trust you just this once, girl. Don't lie to me!"

"Haha, don't worry, the monk can run away but the temple cannot. You have so many villagers behind you. If I lied to you, you would have people surround our Red Star Food Factory. Are you still afraid that people will run away?" Gu Qingyu said jokingly after hearing this.

Upon hearing this, the old branch secretary raised his eyebrows and looked at the girl next to him, knowing that the other party was making fun of him for leading people to block the Red Star Food Factory and not let anyone out!

This girl is so mischievous, the old branch secretary cursed secretly in his heart, but Gu Qingyu's words also made the atmosphere between the two of them less tense.

As Gu Qingyu led the old Party Secretary into the Red Star Food Factory, he said to Zhang Huaimin and the others beside him, "Director Zhang, please clear out the conference room. The old man and I will discuss things in the conference room later!"

"Okay, no problem!" Zhang Huaimin and the others were still a little frightened by the twists and turns of today's events. Upon hearing Gu Qingyu's instructions, they nodded in agreement.

Someone led the way, and within a few minutes a group of people came into the conference room and sat down.

Gu Qingyu sat at the head of the table, looking at the two distinct groups of people below the stage. He jokingly said, "This is my first day at the Red Star Food Factory, and I've already encountered something so extraordinary. I'm afraid it'll be known throughout Xinhu within a day!"

Gu Qingyu's self-mockery made everyone in the audience smile knowingly, and also relaxed the tense atmosphere in the conference room.

"Old branch secretary, since I promised to pay back the money, I must keep my word. But you also know that I just took office today and I don’t know much about the situation yet." Gu Qingyu looked at the old branch secretary and said.

Upon hearing this, the old Party Secretary glared at him, "Do you want to go back on your word?"

"Of course not. I just took office. I wonder if the old branch secretary could allow me to learn about the situation from Director Zhang and others first, and then come to talk to you?" Gu Qingyu smiled and shook his head when he heard this.

The old branch secretary came to the Red Star Food Factory to ask for so much money, so he naturally knew what a mess the factory was in now.

He knew that what Gu Qingyu said was the truth. Now that Gu Qingyu was willing to take the initiative to take responsibility for the matter, the old branch secretary was naturally willing to do this.

"Then I'll wait until you understand the situation before I talk to you about repaying the money!"

"Thank you very much for your understanding!" Gu Qingyu stood up and bowed to the old branch secretary to express his gratitude.

"Who is the office director?" Gu Qingyu asked, looking around the conference room.

"Director, my name is Roland, and I'll be temporarily taking over as the office manager of our factory!" Roland stood up and answered immediately after hearing this.

Gu Qingyu looked at Luo Lan who had stood up and nodded, indicating that he was acquainted with him. He then instructed, "Director Luo, please arrange for the old branch secretary and his group to rest in the next room first. I will call them over after I have understood the situation."

"Okay, Director! I'll arrange it right away!" Roland nodded in agreement.

After the old branch secretary and his party left the meeting room, Gu Qingyu finally had time to carefully look at the people from the Red Star Food Factory sitting in the meeting room.

Just now, when Gu Qingyu was talking to the old branch secretary, he noticed the expressions of these people. They all looked as if it had nothing to do with them and they didn't care.

She couldn't help but sneer in her heart. These people from the Red Star Factory started to act indifferent because they saw that she took the lead and took the responsibility. They really treated him, Gu Qingyu, as a soft persimmon!

Wang Ziqiang saw that Gu Qingyu had not spoken since the old branch secretary and his group left the meeting room, so he couldn't help but ask, "Hey, Director Gu, I wonder how you plan to resolve this matter today?"

"Spend money to pay off debts!" ​​Gu Qingyu answered as a matter of course, as if the other party's question was nonsense.

These words made everyone in the Red Star Factory sitting in the conference room choke and feel like they couldn't breathe.

Don’t they know to pay back their debts?

Isn’t it because they have no money to pay back?

Gu Qingyu naturally knew that the Red Star Food Factory had no money to repay now, and she said this just to deliberately choke these people.

They just set a trap for her in order to shift the blame, and now they must be feeling bad!
