I couldn't take it anymore; when I went home for Chinese New Year, the family genealogy book ha

Chapter 417 Long lines of refrigerated trucks threaten agricultural products with spoilage.

Looking at the smug, cat-and-mouse expression on the person in charge's face.

Jiang Chen reached out and gently stopped Wang Dagou, whose chest was heaving violently and who was on the verge of going berserk.

"Step back."

Jiang Chen's tone was very calm.

Wang Dagou was taken aback: "Brother Chen?"

"They are acting in accordance with the rules, and as law-abiding citizens, we must actively cooperate," Jiang Chen said calmly.

Upon hearing this, the bespectacled manager's smile widened.

He gave Jiang Chen an appreciative look, as if to say: You know what's good for you.

He slowly picked up the stamp on the table, stamped it on the form with a "snap," and then handed the slip to the driver who had already been waiting for more than three hours.

But as soon as the next refrigerated truck from the Jiang Group arrived, he switched to an extremely complex set of portable instruments.

"Wait a moment."

He stopped the driver who was about to drive off and said in a serious tone.

"According to the latest supplementary environmental protection provisions, we also need to conduct sampling tests on the formaldehyde emission levels of the vehicle door panels."

"Please turn off the engine, open all the doors, and keep the vehicle ventilated for 30 minutes before we begin testing."

"Hold!"

Wang Dagou could no longer hold back and slammed his fist hard against the guardrail next to him.

This is not a checkup at all!

This is clearly an attempt to torture someone to death!

At this snail's pace, it will take at least three days and three nights for all these dozens of vehicles to pass through security!

Let alone three days, even in just one day, all those incredibly delicate, divine vegetables in the carriage would turn into a pile of mud!

Jiang Chen's expression finally darkened.

Without saying a word, he turned around and left, getting back into the black Maybach.

Just as I closed the car door, the phone rang incessantly from logistics manager Li Qiang, like a barrage of calls.

"Brother Chen! Something terrible has happened! My phone's been ringing off the hook with calls from those big shots in the provincial capital!"

"Manager Liu of 'Royal Cuisine Pavilion' said that if our 'Jadeite and White Jade' doesn't arrive by 8 PM tonight, he'll personally lead a group to the village to block the entrance!"

"And then there's 'Tianxianglou.' They're hosting a top-tier banquet tonight for distinguished guests from the capital, and all the main dishes on the menu are designed to impress them with our dishes!"

"Brother Chen, if we really cut off the supply tonight, those restaurants' reputations will be completely ruined! And our credibility will be completely destroyed!"

Hearing Li Qiang's voice on the other end of the phone, almost crying, Wang Dagou was so angry that he pounded his fists on the soft leather seats of the Maybach again and again.

"Brother Chen! We can't wait any longer!"

"It's no use reasoning with these bastards!"

"How about...how about we spend the money and hire a helicopter to haul the goods?"

Wang Dagou's eyes turned red.

"Didn't you rent dozens of them for your wedding? Use those! Fly them right over their heads! Make them furious!"

Transporting over ten tons of vegetables by helicopter?

The thought flashed through Jiang Chen's mind, but he immediately rejected it.

"no."

He shook his head, his voice eerily calm.

"Helicopters are fine for carrying red envelopes and making a show of things, but their carrying capacity is too limited. It's simply unrealistic to carry more than ten tons of cargo."

"Moreover, the approval process for cross-city cargo routes is extremely complicated. By the time it's approved, the vegetables will have already rotted."

Jiang Chen's gaze passed through the car window and landed on the azure sky framed by high walls.

Chu Tiankuo intends to use a net of rules on the ground to trap and kill me.

Well.

A cold smile slowly curved the corners of Jiang Chen's lips.

"Then let's not take the land route."

He took out his phone and, without hesitation, found a contact in his address book that he had saved but never used.

This is the private phone number of Director Liu, the top official of the provincial aviation administration.

The call was answered quickly.

"Hello, Director Liu, this is Jiang Chen."

There was a visibly surprised pause on the other end of the phone, followed by a delighted and flattered voice: "Oh my! Mr. Jiang! What a rare guest! What made you think of calling me?"

Jiang Chen didn't mince words and went straight to the point.

"Director Liu, I want to ask you something."

"I heard that 'Flying Eagle Cargo Airlines,' a long-established airline in our province, recently went bankrupt?"

Director Liu on the other end of the phone was clearly taken aback.

"President Jiang, your information network is incredibly advanced!"

"Flying Eagle Airlines' funding chain has completely collapsed, and the boss has absconded with a mountain of debt. All five of their Boeing 737 heavy freighters imported from the United States are sitting idle in the airport hangar collecting dust."

"The court is having a headache, preparing to initiate bankruptcy auction proceedings. Mr. Jiang, are you interested?"

Jiang Chen's tone was as calm as if he were buying a bunch of scallions at the market.

"Full acquisition".

"Including their company's people, those five planes, plus all the cargo route approval authority they hold."

"I want them all."

"This afternoon, I will send someone to your place to complete the formalities and hand over the work."

"Wh...what?!"

Director Liu on the other end of the phone was so startled that he knocked over his thermos with a loud crash.

His voice even changed tone.

"Mr. Jiang... Mr. Jiang! You're not kidding, are you? That's... that's a mess worth billions!"

"And...and the contract is to be signed this afternoon? You...you didn't even bring a financial due diligence team to check it out?!"

Jiang Chen leaned back in the soft seat, looking at the motionless line of cars outside the window, and uttered a few words softly.

No investigation is needed.

"I'll pay in full."
