Blondie reacted instinctively and replied, “We are from the quality control department.”

Johnathan turned to the crowd. “Where’s the supervisor for the quality control department? Are these guys yours?”

Someone yelled back, “They’re not ours, I have never seen them before.”

Johnathan was furious, “You punks, how dare you infiltrate our company, pretend to be our staff, and sow discord within!”

“No wonder the eight of you were eager for trouble and has been yelling incessantly!”

“Tell us! Who send you to do this?”

Blondie and his men mumbled among themselves, unable to explain.

When Jacob realized the game was up, he interjected, “Johnathan, they have been hired by me recently and were assigned to the quality control department.”

“It was just that they haven’t started work because of the strike. That’s why you don’t know them.

“Is that so?” Zeke mocked, “As one of the bosses, you were willing to get your hands dirty to hire the rank and file employees. I am amazed at your dedication to the company.”

“In that case, we no longer need the human resources department.”

Jacob explained, “The standard of the quality control department directly affects the quality of our products. It is obvious how important these positions are.”

“So what if I personally hired the quality control personnel?”

Zeke retorted, “Haha, is that so?”

“And here I am, thinking that you’ve hired some hoodlums to create havoc within the company to cause its operations to stop. So that you can take over my shares in the company.”

Jacob’s faced turned red in frustration.

Damn him, how did he see through my plan so quickly!

Meanwhile, the other employees looked at Jacob suspiciously as the excuse he gave sounded outlandish.

In comparison, the new boss’ version of events was a lot more logical.

Is Jacob really the one responsible for sowing discord and manipulating all of us?

Laura appealed to the workers, “My dear friends, listen to an old lady’s advice.”

“I stake my reputation on the fact that the new boss is trustworthy.”

“If he says that he can resolve the problem, he will definitely keep his word.”

“I’m sure my vouching for him will put all of you at ease. So, please go back to work and I’ll be serving dumplings for lunch today.”

Even the mayor relies on the new boss now, I’m sure there’s nothing in the current situation that he can’t handle.

Laura was well-liked by all the employees; hence her words carried a lot of weight. Under her persuasion, many of the employees prepared to go back to work.

However, there were some who were still uncooperative.

A middle-aged man in overalls stood up and protested, “Johnathan, I’m glad you managed to resolve your problems, but aren’t you forgetting something? We all have our own problems to solve. Now, my family is so poor that we can’t even afford to buy any food.”

“I’m still waiting for my wages to pay for my family’s living expenses...”

Before he could finish his sentence, however, his phone rang.
