Chapter 229 There is something wrong with the pillar
Qiao Jingyu stared with wide eyes, watching the workers who had finally packed up their tools and actually started working again. What made her even more anxious was that some of the workers had even started climbing up the towering elevated platform!
Qiao Jingyu glanced at the watch on her wrist anxiously, and the hour hand pointed to half past eight. Her heart skipped a beat: a small earthquake was about to come, and according to predictions, not long after the small earthquake, there would be a powerful earthquake. By then, the building of this movie studio would surely collapse! It would take a long time to safely evacuate from the iron frame more than ten stories high. But these people not only did not evacuate quickly, but they kept climbing up. Did they not even care about their own lives?
Qiao Jingyu knew that she could not afford to hesitate any longer. In a life-or-death situation, everything else seemed insignificant. She rushed to Liu Zhenqiang in two steps and said anxiously, "Mr. Liu, I believe you know the quality of your project very well! If this earthquake really comes and causes the building to collapse, it will cause casualties! Have you ever thought seriously about such serious consequences? Also, do you think you can bear such a heavy responsibility on your own?"
When Liu Zhenqiang heard Qiao Jingyu say, "I think you know the quality of your project very well," he felt a chill running down his spine and his body trembled involuntarily. It was as if an invisible hand was tightly grasping his heart, making him almost unable to breathe.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant, and he thought to himself: Could it be that she really knew some unknown inside story? Once this terrible idea appeared, it grew wildly like weeds, occupying his entire thinking space. When he thought of this, Liu Zhenqiang couldn't help but start to ooze out a layer of fine sweat on his forehead, which slowly slid down his cheeks.
However, just a moment later, Liu Zhenqiang shook his head vigorously, as if to get rid of those terrible speculations in his mind. He quickly calmed down and carefully recalled every detail of the previous tampering with the pillars at the construction site. He did that thing perfectly, and those who knew the inside story were all his confidants. These people would never betray him, let alone reveal the matter to Qiao Jingyu.
So Liu Zhenqiang calmed down, and a hint of toughness and disdain reappeared on his face. He looked at Qiao Jingyu coldly and said, "Don't be so alarmist here! Don't think you can scare me with just a few words. No matter how you make up stories, I will never believe you! If you know what's good for you, leave here quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being rude, I have plenty of people who can ask you to leave!"
At that moment, Qiao Jingyu suddenly felt her body tremble, and a strange feeling came over her. She hurriedly looked down at the watch on her wrist, thinking to herself: Is it an earthquake? The earthquake that can be felt is coming soon.
At this time, Qiao Jingyu cast his eyes to the high-rise construction site. The workers were busy working, unaware of the impending danger. Especially Liu Zhenqiang, who was stubborn and unyielding, just like a stubborn stone. No matter how much he was persuaded, he refused to evacuate the scene. Faced with such a difficult situation, Qiao Jingyu was extremely anxious, but he could not think of a better solution for a while.
In desperation, she quickly walked to an open field, took a deep breath, opened her hands and placed them to her mouth like trumpets, and shouted with all her might: "An earthquake is about to happen! Everyone, leave here quickly! Otherwise, the consequences will be disastrous and your life will be in danger!"
Qiao Jingyu repeated this sentence over and over again, her voice echoing in the air, trying to attract everyone's attention. Finally, the workers gradually stopped their work, looking at each other with horror on their faces.
The crowd began to stir, with all kinds of doubts and concerns rising one after another.
"Is an earthquake really going to happen? What should we do?" a worker asked in panic.
Another worker echoed, "Yes, I've seen earthquake scenes on TV before. They were so terrible! Houses collapsed, the ground cracked, and I wonder how many people would die!"
Some people looked up at the sky and said worriedly: "Look, the sky is so gloomy. Maybe a big earthquake will happen."
For a moment, the entire construction site fell into chaos and panic.
"It's better to believe this kind of thing than not to believe it! I think it's better to avoid it for a while."
"That's right. If such a nice building collapses, can we still escape?"
Liu Zhenqiang saw that the workers had stopped, and especially when he heard their discussions, his face turned pale. He looked at the two security guards behind him and said, "Are you blind or deaf? What are you doing here? Don't you want to work anymore? Get her out now!"
"Yes, yes, Mr. Liu!" Two security guards hurriedly walked to Qiao Jingyu's side, held her arms and pulled her out.
Qiao Jingyu struggled hard, "Let me go!"
The two security guards were afraid that their jobs would be lost, so no matter how Qiao Jingyu struggled, they held her arms tightly and dragged her towards the door.
Qiao Jingyu looked at Liu Zhenqiang and shouted, "You tampered with the pillars of the building. When an earthquake comes, the building will definitely collapse. So many people will die, and your company will be finished. Can you bear the responsibility for so many lives?"
Liu Zhenqiang's pupils suddenly shrank. This woman actually knew that he had tampered with the pillars of the building. How did she know?
The workers at the construction site became even more frightened after hearing what Qiao Jingyu said.
"Did you know there was something wrong with the pillars of the building?"
"I just heard about it too. Let's just run!"
"Run! I don't want to risk my life here just to make some money. I have parents, a wife and children at home!"
"Me too. My dad is still in poor health. What will happen to them if I die?"
"My son will be one month old the day after tomorrow. I don't want him to be without a father at such a young age."
"Let's go, let's quit. We can't risk our lives for such a small amount of money."
The workers dropped their tools one after another, and those on the scaffolding climbed down one after another.
Liu Zhenqiang's face turned even darker. If he let the workers leave at this time, wouldn't it be a disguised admission that he had secretly replaced the pillars? No, absolutely not. This matter must not be known to others, otherwise no one would dare to cooperate with him in the future.
