[INDO SUB] The Story of Xing Fu EP38 | Zhao Liying / Liu Wei | YOUKU

[The Story of Xing Fu] [Episode 38] Put your hands together. Put your hands together. Forward. Here. You can park here. Come forward. Alright. Here. [Welcome to Wan Village, fellow judges!] Welcome. Welcome. Mr. Zhang. Thanks for traveling all the way here. This way, please. This way. Hi. This way, please. This is Maoqin.

Nice to meet you. Come on in. The Wan Village has been doing really well in the past two years. Next up, Mr. Wan will give you a brief introduction. Compared to last year, the Wanjia Group has achieved a 15-percent year-over-year growth this year.

You know how difficult it is to survive in the traditional industry now. We did our best. As for the health products factory, ever since we changed our marketing tactics and promotional strategies, we have been making a decent profit. We have included all the information in the booklet. I think I should

Leave the rest to Mr. Wan. Your turn, Wan. It must be really tiring for Mr. Zhang to lead the team. They’re here mainly for a site inspection. Talking here won’t achieve anything. Liuhua, have you prepared the tea? It’s ready. The delegates will be here anytime. Don’t worry. Mr. Li,

When will you be there? You’re almost there? Sure. I’ll be right there. Xiuyu. It’s bad timing, but they need me at the Shuiwei Village now. I’ll leave the inn to you. Xingfu, I can’t do this. Why not? Did you forget what I told you? Great men get bestowed great responsibility.

You can do this. Xing… Xingfu. What if I screw it up? Why would you? Your speech doesn’t determine how the inn is doing. Besides, you don’t have to care about the feedback from the higher-ups. You just need to state the truth. I’ve got to go. I… Where’s my script?

Did anyone see my script? Look how friendly the villagers are. I have to tell you about this one. This is one of the products of our health products factory. She is from our village. We don’t have enough budget to hire a celebrity. Nonetheless, the sales have been quite good,

And we’re making a very decent profit. Mr. Zhang, watch your steps. This is the first inn in the village. I’ve heard about it. The owner of the inn is He Xingfu. [Xingfu Inn] You even know her name. My friend is a writer. He used to live here. After he went back,

He couldn’t stop praising the inn and its owner. That made me really curious. That’s why I’ve always wanted to visit the inn and meet He Xingfu myself. You’ll see her soon. [Welcome to Xingfu Inn, fellow judges!] He Xingfu always strives to do better

And has already applied to be a member of the CPC. Welcome to Xingfu Inn, sirs. This way, please. Sure. This way, please. This way, please. After crossing the Bridge of Happiness, (* “happiness” pronounces as “xingfu”) we’ll arrive at the lobby. In the lobby… Here. Watch your steps. In the lobby,

You can see our latest exhibits and the story wall. Xiuyu, where is Xingfu? Why isn’t she here to receive the guests? Xingfu had something important to do, so she went out. What is it that’s so important? Is it more important than receiving the delegates? It’s fine.

Give her a call and tell her to come here right away. Xiuyu, I’ll call her. You can show the guests around. I’ll call her. Sure. Please come in. This way. Watch your steps. Ms. He, thanks to you, our efficiency has improved significantly. Thank you for making the trip. Thanks.

It’s part of our job. Ms. He. Why are you here? Aren’t the judges visiting the village today for the inspection? What’s wrong? Why aren’t you working today? I was on night shift yesterday, so I’m getting the day off. Ms. Guo, let me just answer this call.

Please bring Mr. Li and his colleague to Madam Zhang’s place. Sure. Li, this way. Mr. Wan. Xingfu, where are you? I’m at Shuiwei Village. Why are you there? The delegates are here at the Xingfu Inn, but you, the owner, are not here. I’ve got everything prepared.

Xiuyu will receive the guests and do the presentation on my behalf. There will be no difference. It’s different. Mr. Zhang said this himself. He wants to meet you. Can’t you just do it for the greater good? This is a major event. It will affect the entire village. It’s a collective honor.

Don’t you know what to do now? Get back here now, or you’ll have to bear the consequences. Liuhua. Keep this. We can use it again. Sure. Don’t worry. Be careful. Xiuyu. Xingfu. Have the delegates left? They left quite some time ago. How did everything go? Nothing much, but Mr. Wan was slightly upset.

Why? Because of my absence? Are they here to inspect Xingfu Inn or me? Fine, I’ll pay them a visit. Where are you going? I’m going to the Village Committee. Why was I upset? Mr. Zhang, the leader of the jury team, left our village disappointed. I said this during the pep rally.

The judges’ visit to the Wan Village means a lot to the Wan Village. We need to show him what the villagers of the Wan Village are made of. I also emphasized that none of you should embarrass me or the village. Yet, we were embarrassed. How dare she?

How dare she leave her position without permission? How dare she disregard our collective interest and honor? Because of her little achievement, she thought she is above everyone else. The person I’m going to reprimand today is He Xingfu. Although she is not a member of the CPC, she is part of the Wan Village.

All for Wan and Wan for All. It’s not just a slogan. It is a collective idea that should be instilled in all members of the Wan Village. We all need to look at the bigger picture. Let’s take this as a lesson. Those of you who are present here are members of the CPC.

If you make the same mistake, I’ll do more than just reprimand you. You’re dismissed. Remind him to take his medicine. Sure. Let’s go. Mr. Wan. I know you’re mad at me, so I came here to explain myself. Mr. Wan. 12 kids in Shuiwei Village have been diagnosed with lead poisoning. Lead poisoning? Yes.

A high level of lead was found in these 12 kids’ blood. Mr. Wan, lead poisoning can affect the kids’ health and their immune systems. This will greatly affect the kids’ future and their health. We can’t wait any longer. We need to find out the source as soon as possible.

Chuanjia, have you heard about this? I haven’t. What she just said was news to me too. Catch up with Maoqin. Both of you should find out what actually happened and report it to me. Sure. I’ll visit the Shuiwei Village later to check things out. I suspect that the well water is polluted.

I’ve told the officer of the Environment Monitoring Station to take some water samples. All right. We’ll see how things go after we get the results. Mr. Wan, it’s all my fault. Mr. Wan. Watch your steps. I didn’t do my job properly. However, we had never heard of lead poisoning before this.

I really have no idea what it is. I was careless as well. Which house are we visiting first? Let’s start with Liu’s place. His only grandson is three years old this year. They discovered a high level of lead in his blood. Mr. Wan. Hi. Where is it? Right after this turn. Liu Datou.

Datou. This is it. Come on in. Is anyone home? Datou. You’re right here. Come here. Mr. Wan is here to send you his regards. Who gave you permission to come here? Leave now. Why are you so rude? Mr. Wan? Who? I don’t know him.

Who am I to talk to a noble man like him? Get out of here. Know your place. Get out of here. What are you doing? Cold-blooded freaks. All you care about is money. Why… Mr. Wan is here to send his regards. I don’t care. His intention is good. Stop it. How dare you?

Mr. Wan, he’s still upset about it, so please don’t take it to heart. He just doesn’t get it. Why don’t we visit the rest of them some other day? I’m here anyway. We didn’t manage to talk to him. Let’s see if we can talk to the others. Sure. Let’s go.

Mr. Wan, Mr. Li. Have some tea. Sure. Sure. Thank you. This is the best tea we’ve got. I hope you don’t mind. That’s too kind of you. How can I help you? It’s nothing. Mr. Maoqin and I are here to find out how is your kid doing after the lead poisoning.

I heard your child was the first to get diagnosed. It wasn’t our child. Qiang, Yancheng’s child, was the first to get diagnosed. He is currently in a lawsuit with the health products factory. Have you not heard about it yet? Yes, I remember now. If his child is not counted,

Then my child will be the first to get diagnosed. Speaking of this, I was quite lucky. When I brought my kid to the doctor the other day, I ran into He Xingfu from your village. Our village is your village too. We’re family. Yes. We’re family. Mr. Wan. Xingfu is a really kind person.

She was the one who told me to get my child’s blood lead level checked. When she found out that there was a high lead level in his blood, she started worrying about the other kids too. She spoke to you, but you were too busy to be bothered. I…

She worried that it would affect the kids, so she organized everything herself. She spent money printing flyers and visited one family after another. She also got in touch with the county hospital personally. Eventually, she found a big van and sent all the kids to the hospital.

Ms. He put a lot of effort into this. There are so many officers in our village, but none of them has contributed anything. Well, I… Mr. Wan is busy with his work. It was my fault that I neglected my duties. I should reflect upon myself. Indeed, we are in charge of this,

But we didn’t do a good job. No. I’m not blaming you for anything. I’m just thinking how happy the village will be if you make He Xingfu one of the officers. Let me top this up. It’s late at night. Why are you sitting here alone? You gave me a scare. What’s the matter?

What happened? It’s nothing. I’m just troubled by something. What is it? I always thought the people of Shuiwei Village would feel honored about the merging of the Wan Village and the Shuiwei Village. Of course, they do. They have to be honored and grateful. But they aren’t pleased about it at all.

They aren’t pleased? We should all be appreciative, right? That’s why I always say a terrible environment makes terrible people. I’ve told you many times. You’re the leader, and you need to stop calling them terrible. I got it. I only said that because I was talking to you.

I won’t say it when I’m with others. You shouldn’t even think like that. What I’m saying is that ever since we’re joined by the Shuiwei Village, half of the young men of the village don’t have to leave the village to look for jobs. They’re earning more than when working in the cities.

The living standard of the farmers has significantly improved. We make sure they get all the village’s welfare benefits too. Look. Before they joined the Wan Village, how many families owned a car? Now, there are at least a dozen of them who own a car. They should be grateful, right?

How can they compare themselves with the people of the Wan Village? It’s not something you can compare. We made a deal. Let some people get rich first and then help others to get rich together. When we first started our business, the county helped us a lot.

We had the priority to all the good resources. The Shuiwei Village was put at a disadvantage. We managed to achieve our goal first, so shouldn’t we repay kindness with kindness? Moreover, the merging of these two villages gave the Wan Village the upper hand. We got better lands, labor, and resources.

Why didn’t you consider that? What’s wrong with you? Why do you keep defending them? Look. That’s why I said you had an attitude problem. Them? Aren’t the Shuiwei Village and the Wan Village family? You’re the head of the village and you don’t consider them your family. No wonder they consider us outsiders too.

We merged the village, but we didn’t bring the people together. I’m a terrible secretary. You made it sound too serious. Someone told me that you’d spent a lot of time at Shuiwei Village in the past two days. What actually happened? Were there any rumors? Did someone say something about you and upset you?

Yes, I’m upset. It’s a waste of time talking to you. Chuanjia. He Xingfu has arranged to send all the kids of the Shuiwei Village for a blood lead test. Ask her how much she has spent and we’ll reimburse her. We are the village leaders, but a villager is doing much better than us.

How embarrassing. Ms. He. I’m Li. We’ve received the test results. The well water is indeed polluted. I’ve couriered the test results to you. Remember to receive it. Thanks, Mr. Li. I have another question. How did the well water get polluted? It’s hard to say. It could be a natural cause.

There’s also a chance that the surface water got polluted and seeped underground, resulting in the contamination of the groundwater. Do you mean that the river water is also polluted? The river water was fine the last time we did an assessment on it. Ms. He. A one-time test can’t conclude anything.

What if someone polluted the water source? Let me be honest with you. This is our specialty, so we know it very well. Many companies are playing games with us. Illegally discharging wastewater is very common now. Are you saying that the wastewater treatment plant has once discharged wastewater illegally? Ms. He.

I didn’t say that. Please don’t sabotage me. I also said that lead occurs naturally in the environment as a trace element. What I meant is that we need solid evidence. Otherwise, none of this will work. What should we do now? We need an investigation. A very thorough one.

We need to work with all the departments, including the environment, health, and disease control. I’ll be honest with you. Without solid evidence, it will be very difficult to figure things out. Li. We’ve got the water sample. Let’s go. Sure. Get in the car now. Ms. He, I have work to do.

I’ve got to go. Remember to receive the parcel. Sure. Thanks, Mr. Li. Mr. Wan, I heard that lead poisoning would affect children’s intelligence. Will our children become stupid in the future? I only have this one child. Mr. Wan. Will it cause any sequelae? My father-in-law was diagnosed with cancer.

Is it caused by lead poisoning too? Will we get poisoned too? That’s right. How did the lead poisoning happen out of nowhere? Exactly. I’m in my sixties, and this is my first time hearing this. I think it’s definitely caused by the wastewater treatment plant. Ever since the establishment of the plant,

The children in the village are always sick. It’s gotten worse over the past two years. He’s right. Gentleman. You can’t say things like this. We need proof. The court made it clear. What you said is not true. Quiet, ladies and gentlemen. Calm down. Mr. Wan is saying… Calm down?

The Wan Village is not affected. Of course, you are calm. Imagine if your child is poisoned. Mr. Wan takes this matter very seriously and visits the affected families one by one. That means this is a serious matter. But we don’t know exactly how serious it is. What we need now is an explanation.

How can we calm down? We need an explanation. Calm down, please. Worrying won’t solve the problem. Who is she? He Xingfu. So she’s He Xingfu. We’ve spoken to the doctor. We managed to diagnose it before it was too late, so it’s nothing too serious.

As long as we can start the lead detox treatment immediately, nothing will happen. They will recover. Also, we need to have faith in Mr. Wan. Mr. Wan takes this matter very seriously. He’ll definitely find out the source of pollution as soon as possible and give us an explanation. Fine.

Let me say a few words. I know you’re very worried. To be honest, I am too. This is a serious matter. This is what we’ll do. Chuanjia. Cailiang. What about this? We’ll do a census for all of the members of Shuiwei Village. Anyone with a high level of lead in their blood

Will receive treatments right away. Don’t worry about the medical bills. The Wanjia Group will bear all the costs. What do you think about that? I think that will work. Fine. We’ll trust Mr. Wan. Sure. Keep us posted, Mr. Wan. Sure. Keep us posted. Sure. We’ll work hard too. Thank you for your understanding.

I’ll see you again. See them out. Don’t worry. The Group will help you. We’re here to back you up. Take care. How did this turn into such a huge issue? Mr. Wan, I have something to tell you. We’ve got the test report from the well water assessment. It is indeed polluted.

It really was the well water that caused lead poisoning in the kids. Mr. Wan. Shall we report this to the county authorities? Not right now. We’re conducting a census very soon. We’ll submit it together with the result of the census. Mr. Wan. What is wrong with He Xingfu?

Why is she sticking her nose into everything? Who does she think she is? She’s everywhere. I don’t mind her being everywhere, as long as she doesn’t spread rumors and make a huge fuss over nothing. The Entrepreneurship in Rural Communities Competition is now at its most crucial phase.

I only hope that we can win the title without any hiccups. Then, we can end the year on a high note. That’s exactly what I’m saying. So many things happened toward the end of the year, and she’s brought us more troubles. Is it possible that the kids got lead poisoning

Because of the illegal disposal of wastewater at your wastewater treatment plant previously? Mr. Wan. Please don’t wrong me. Wait. They tested the river water, didn’t they? It was fine. Moreover, lead is everywhere. You can find it in nature and the kids’ books and stationery. Who says that it has to be from us?

Fine. That will be our defense. We have to stand firm on our ground and make sure not to get blamed for this incident. Otherwise, both the health products factory and the Wan Village will be done for. We’ll spend the rest of our lives in prison. Don’t worry. They didn’t win the previous lawsuit,

And they won’t win this time too. You’re saying that the groundwater of Shuiwei Village has been polluted. Will the earth get polluted too? If the earth gets polluted, then the vegetables I grow will be contaminated too. Then, I won’t be able to start the cooperative. I can’t be selling poisonous vegetables, right?

Most of the vegetable farmers you’re going to work with for your cooperative are from the Shuiwei Village, right? Yes. The Wan Village doesn’t have enough land. If we want to increase production, we can only rely on the lands in the Shuiwei Village. Qinglai. Didn’t you ask the Group to be your guarantor

So that you can apply for a loan? You need to put a halt to that immediately. I’ve already submitted my application. Then, what should we do now? Are you going to be in debt again? Don’t worry. According to Mr. Li, we can fix the lead pollution,

As long as we find the source of pollution. You gave me a scare. That’s good to hear. However, it’s not easy to find the source of pollution. You need to find it however hard it is. That’s right. If you’d listened to me earlier, we could’ve been able to avoid these.

Ms. He is here. Sit, Ms. He. Have a seat. Have a seat, Ms. He. Sure. Yancheng, you’re here. How is the kid doing? Is he feeling better? He has almost fully recovered. We owe that to you, Ms. He. Thank you so much. Yes. We owe that to Ms. He.

Otherwise, we’d still be in the dark and oblivious about what’s going on. That’s right. That’s not a big deal. Ms. He. I was the one who called Yancheng here. We are all very worried. They have gone through this and they can guide us on this.

I heard that they’re going to conduct a census in the village. We should all go and have it checked out. Yancheng and I did the test and it showed that we have a high lead level in our blood too. It doesn’t affect adults much and the symptoms aren’t that obvious.

However, if the lead stays in our bodies for a prolonged period without getting excreted, it will be very dangerous too. It will cause a lot of illnesses, and some might even get cancer. What should we do now? Ms. He, how did the well water get poisoned?

Mr. Li of the Environment Monitoring Station said that the cause of the well water pollution can be really complicated. It’s not easy to find the source of pollution. Why not? Even I know what’s the source of pollution. It’s obvious that the wastewater treatment plant on top of the mountain polluted the river.

The river water then contaminated the groundwater. It’s just that simple, right? However, Yancheng’s case has already removed the suspicion of the wastewater treatment plant being the source of pollution. But I don’t agree with the results. Look at this. The wastewater treatment plant is the only factory we can find along the river.

Who else can it be? That’s right. Our suspicion won’t help with the investigation. We need evidence. That’s right. Yancheng. Do you remember what Mr. Guan said during the previous lawsuit? He said that both parties needed evidence to prove that they had nothing to do with the incident. That was what Mr. Guan said.

However, they only managed to bring out some very messy evidence. Despite that, the judge sided with them too. I’ll give Mr. Guan a call. I understand what you’re saying, but do you really want to know the truth? Of course. I must find out the truth. If you want to find out the truth,

Help the affected villagers earn the compensation they deserve, and eliminate all future risks, the best thing you can do now is to file a class-action lawsuit. But what concerns me the most now is that the Shuiwei Village has merged with the Wan Village. I’m sure the affected villagers

Will have many other concerns as well. Leave that to me. Let me be honest with you. We lost Yancheng’s case, so this upcoming lawsuit won’t be an easy one. Even if it’s a class-action lawsuit, I can’t guarantee that I’ll win. But I believe none of the parties will have the upper hand.

They will need solid evidence to prove that the villagers who got lead poisoning is not a consequence of the disposal of wastewater. After all, the wastewater treatment plant is the only building at the source of the river in Shuiwei Village. It’s most likely the source of contamination. I must find out

What went wrong. Xingfu. Have you thought things through? Are you really going to do this? It’s going to be very risky, and you might offend a lot of people. Xiuyu. Xingfu, why did you ask me to come back so urgently? Have a seat. This is what happened. I want to do something

That might offend many people in the village. But I’ve thought this through. I have to do this, so I’m giving you a heads-up. In case anything happens in the future, at least you’ll be prepared. Of course, it will be better if I can have your support. What… what is it about?

I’m going to lead the villagers of the Shuiwei Village and file a class-action lawsuit against Wanjia Health Products Factory. Is it because of lead poisoning? The lawsuit is meant to find the source of the well water pollution. I’m on Xingfu’s side.

You should just stay away from this. What can you do for them? Xingfu, I know you are coming from a good place. However, I still think you should weigh up the risks. I know. Almost every family in our village knows someone working in the factory. If we do take it to court,

It might affect all the homestays in the village. If you already know the consequences, why are you still doing this? Dad, if we don’t find out the source of pollution and eliminate it, what will happen in the future? The well water the children are drinking is poisonous.

Will the food they eat in the future become poisonous too? Will the fruits and vegetables we plant here become poisonous too? She’s right. If we don’t resolve this issue, the cooperative will never work out. Even if you fail to start the cooperative, are we going to stop eating food and vegetables?

Even if we manage to stay off the poison for now, what about Little Dou and the kids of his generation? Are they going to keep eating poisonous food and vegetables as they grow up? We’re too old to be bothered by that, but the children still have a long future ahead.

Xingfu, we’ll just do as you say. Xingfu, what about this? You’ll stay a low profile and leave it to them. You’ll just help them behind closed doors. What if the people of the village find out that you’re helping the outsiders? Dad, if I’m doing this, I’ll do it openly and proudly.

I’ll go to Mr. Wan and ask for his consent and support. You are working with so many other people to file a lawsuit against the Group. And you’re asking me to back you up. Are you kidding me? Mr. Wan, I think the villagers’ suspicions are valid. What about you?

Do you think so too? Yes. Why? We spent so much money and put in so much effort to build the wastewater treatment plant. Do you take it as a decoration? We acquired so much land, spent so much money, and put in so much effort just to build the factory. You saw it yourself.

Yes, I saw it myself. But building it doesn’t mean putting it to use. The official of the Environment Monitoring Station said that many corporates would discharge their wastewater illegally just so that they can cut cost and increase their profits. Xingfu. You can’t trust others blindly.

You need evidence to prove that we discharged the wastewater illegally. Without evidence, it just seems like you’re spreading rumors. If things get worse, you might get sued for what you said. Xingfu, you saw that Li Yancheng from the Shuiwei Village filed a lawsuit against us regarding this matter too, right?

The court made its decision too. You saw what happened. Yes, I saw what happened. But all these people fell sick all of a sudden. Doesn’t it sound fishy to you? Mr. Wan, let’s not talk about anything else. Just use our common senses. Don’t you think the wastewater treatment plant

Is very likely to be the source of pollution? At least, we need to eliminate the best possible source first, right? Why is it the best possible source? Xingfu, can you stop causing trouble? Xingfu, I understand where you’re coming from. You are worried about the sick children, but so am I.

I was the one who ordered a screening for everyone in Shuiwei Village, adults and kids included. I also promised that the Group would bear all the medical costs. This is the most crucial phase of the Entrepreneurship in Rural Communities Competition. We need to look at the bigger picture, all right?

I hope that Wan Village can win the Entrepreneurship in Rural Communities Competition. However, I also hope that we can win it fair and square. Mr. Wan, has this ever crossed your mind? If they ever really discover something wrong, what should we do? The more titles we win, the more humiliated we will get.

Moreover, compared to giving the kids a healthy life, the medal and the title really mean nothing. It’s not just a medal and a title. Do you know how much the medal and the title mean to the Wan Village? There’s an old saying that goes, “Truth always comes to light.” The temporary honor

Cannot guarantee you a lifetime of wealth and health. Even if they can get cured and get the lead removed from their bodies, what will happen in the future? As long as the source of contamination is still there, no one can guarantee that it won’t happen again in the future. Fine. Xingfu.

Let’s cut this conversation short. Anyway, you should go to the Shuiwei Village and talk to them. We’re family. Whatever they want, I’ll try to fulfill all their requests. Let’s not end up in a lawsuit and fall out with each other. It won’t do any of us any good. Fall out with each other?

We want to get the facts right through law. We want to find out the rights and wrongs through law. We want to resolve disputes through law. We want to achieve justice through law. Isn’t that what the rule of law is all about? Mr. Wan, what do you say? Wait. What’s going on?

Is the village woman, He Xingfu, out of her mind now? What is she trying to achieve? There’s only one thing that concerns me now. Did the pollution of the groundwater really happen because of the illegal wastewater discharge? I don’t think so. There wasn’t much wastewater. Moreover, we stopped doing that

Right after you gave the order. You swear you really stopped doing that? If you really stopped doing that, why would something this serious happen today? How could you still lie to my face after everything that has happened? Well… I only did that a few times. It was a long time ago.

Even if we contaminated the water, it would’ve been flushed away a long time ago. Why would I trust you? I don’t even know when you’re telling the truth and when you’re not. You caused this mess, so please clean up after yourself. Don’t drag me into this, or our partnership will end here.

Fine. Don’t worry. It’s going to be fine. I certainly hope so. If anything happens, we’ll all be done for. Give Mr. Han a call and tell him to get prepared. Madam Li, the only reason why we’re doing this is because we hope to provide your grandchildren with clean drinking water.

Don’t you want to know what actually happened? Of course, I want. But the Wanjia Group is bearing all our medical costs. What if I join you to file the lawsuit and they refuse to reimburse us? The lawyer will talk to them on your behalf. The lawyer is not related to us.

Why would he help us? All they want is money. They will leave once they’ve earned enough, but we will keep staying here one generation after another. Once we start a dispute, it will be very difficult to resolve it. Madam Li. Fine. That’s enough. I know you’re coming from a good place,

But don’t count me in. Let’s go. Madam Li, please stay. We shall go too. No, but… Let’s go. We’ll get going. Please think about it at home. Ms. He, my husband just started working at the factory. If I get involved in the lawsuit against Wan Village, he might lose his job.

They have no right to dismiss your husband because of this. The boss can fire anyone he likes. You shouldn’t let that bother you. We should look at the bigger picture. If we fail to find the source of pollution, what will happen to your child in the long run? She’s right.

Let me discuss this with my husband. Wait. Look… Cui’er, you need to reconsider this. Don’t go. We are supposed to have a meeting to discuss the matter. Don’t… Think about it. Look. Ms. He, please don’t take this to heart. The people of our village have yet to realize the severity of this issue.

Allow them a few days to think about it. I’m sure they’ll come around. He’s right, Ms. He. I think Liu Datou’s grandson was diagnosed with lead poisoning too. Let me talk to him later. Perhaps he will join us. Sure. Mr. Han. What was that supposed to mean? Didn’t we win the lawsuit

Against Yancheng? Isn’t it going to be the same this time? They look the same, but if they have a big group of people and are filing a class-action lawsuit against you together, it won’t be that easy to win. How so? Whether it’s a group or an individual, it’s still the same thing.

Does the number of plaintiffs affect the judge’s decision? If that’s the case, I’ll bring all my factory workers there and outnumber them. Mr. Wan, don’t worry. I’m not saying that we will definitely lose the lawsuit. I’m only telling you that it’s way riskier than before. It was just a villager previously.

Our evidence can easily overturn the allegations. After all, it was just an individual. Now that there is a group of people, the judge will definitely handle it more meticulously. Besides, we have to prove that the kids falling sick has nothing to do with the wastewater. I’m afraid that it won’t be as easy.

Mr. Wan. What are you doing here? Are you not done sabotaging me yet? The lawyers are here. I just want to drop by to say hello. Mr. Wan. Mr. Han. Ms. He. Mr. Mo, you showed up right on time. I have something to ask the two of you. I’ve said this before,

But if we’re going to reopen the case, the standard procedure requires me to do this again. Sure. Go ahead. Please be honest with me. Have you ever discharged wastewater just like what they suspected you of? This… We didn’t. The Wanjia Group is an established group. We wouldn’t care about earning that little profit,

Right? We don’t need to save that small amount of cost. That’s good. After all, many companies these days are doing this. It’s really not a big deal. That’s right. I’m just really unlucky to have run into He Xingfu, the troublemaker. She just won’t let me go. Sorry, Ms. He.

I forgot she’s your sister. However, Ms. He, do you think you can tell your sister to stay out of others’ businesses? What does the Shuiwei Village have anything to do with her? There’s no need to side with the outsiders, right? What’s in it for her? That’s how my sister is.

She always stands up for justice. She won’t listen to me even if I am to talk to her. Mediation is part of our duties. Mr. Mo, don’t worry. Ms. He will do her best to mediate the issue. You can also talk to the people and try to resolve the dispute out of court.

The troublemakers will back off once they run into difficulties. It’s best if we can avoid the lawsuit. After all, you’re from the same village, right? Peace is the greatest good. I got it. Of course, if we can’t avoid the lawsuit, as your company’s legal counsel, we’ll definitely do our best to win it.

But let me give you a heads-up. I don’t want to learn anything new in the midst of the lawsuit. I don’t want it to ruin our plan. It won’t happen. Alright. Let’s get to work. I need you to talk to your staff. We might need to get some relevant documents. Sure.

He, I’m afraid that you might need to stay here in the coming few days to sort out the documents. Why don’t you stay at home for a few days? It’s near to the office and it’ll be easy for you to travel to work. On top of that,

You can meet up with your sister and talk to her. Tell her to stay out of others’ businesses. Ms. He. Please talk to your sister. Tell her not to meddle in others’ affairs. It won’t do her any good. ♪Maybe your life was broken♪ ♪Maybe you were rendered silent by disappointment♪
