"It's too dangerous for a girl like you to go alone. I'll go with you when I get back."

Song Qianyi nodded, but Li Yang returned after only five minutes.

"Why are you back so soon? What happened?"

Could it be that Ling Ling has already signed the contract and returned? Thinking of this possibility, Song Qianyi's expression turned serious.

Li Yang breathed a sigh of relief. "I called her on the way, and she said there was a problem with the partner and the signing would have to be postponed. She's on her way back now."

Song Qianyi understood, and the two of them set off for the factory together.

"It's so great that you could come, Miss Song. I was planning to contact you today to arrange a meeting tomorrow. We've received so many orders these past few days that we might run out of stock if we don't contact you in advance."

The first thing the person in charge said to Song Qianyi upon meeting was to tell her about their situation. However, Song Qianyi wasn't in a hurry and joked:

"A large manufacturer like yours must have multiple production lines and capacity, so please don't try to scare me."

However, the person in charge had a serious expression. "Song Xiaojia, since you're to my liking, I won't hide anything from you. Hua told you that I received a big order this month. They've ordered almost all the goods in my factory and pre-ordered all the materials for the second half of the year. Their representative will come to sign the contract with me tomorrow."

Song Qianyi nodded thoughtfully, but a sense of vigilance arose in her heart.

“It’s okay, we’re not in a hurry. I came here to take a small portion of the materials back for testing. Once everything is in order, I’ll come back to sign the contract.”

The business partner looked rather grim, but didn't say much. He waved his hand and had someone take them to get the raw materials.

After leaving this factory, Song Qianyi and Li Yang went to several other factories and received similar messages, all urging them to sign contracts quickly.

"There's definitely something wrong with this."

Song Qianyi's tone was serious. If it were only one or two vendors, it would just be a coincidence, but if all the backup vendors on their list were like this, then something was wrong.

"But the project is due to start soon. If we can't gather the raw materials, the project may be delayed or even canceled."

Then all their efforts would have been in vain.

"Senior brother, don't rush. Let's find out about the recent operations of these factories and who they've been in contact with. The more details the better."

Li Yang took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. He realized that Song Qianyi was right; being anxious now was not a wise move.

“I know a friend who is very well-informed; we can go to him.”

There are countless competitors in their line of work, and to know what the other party is doing, you need accurate information.

Li Yang led her to a small bungalow on the outskirts of the city.

Song Qianyi glanced around at her surroundings, her brows furrowing slightly.

She knew that some capable people were rather unconventional, but wasn't this living environment a bit too unsafe? There wasn't even a gate at the entrance; you just walked straight into the yard.

"A thousand insider secrets, three hundred pieces of entertainment gossip."

Just as Song Qianyi was looking around, a clean-looking man walked out of the room, completely out of place with the messy surroundings.

Why is entertainment gossip so cheap?

Song Qianyi was somewhat puzzled.

"It's all gossip, so whether it's accurate or not depends on the person involved, but insider information is 100% accurate."

Li Yang, who was standing next to him, was obviously not a first-timer. He scanned the QR code on the table and heard the sound of the bank card being credited to his account. Only then did the man move two stools for them.

"Speak, what do you want to know?"

Song Qianyi pulled up several photos of the factory and its manager on her phone and said, "I want to know who they've been in contact with recently and what they've talked about, as well as the recent operating status of their factory."

The man glanced at it and said, "I can tell you about the people and the situation, but I don't know what they talked about."

"Didn't you claim to know everything?"

The other person looked up at her and said coldly, "If it were anything else, I could tell you, but I can't help you with this. After all, I don't want to go to jail for just a few accurate words."

Song Qianyi and Li Yang exchanged a glance, both seeing shock in each other's eyes. Who had they met, and what had they heard, that could have caused such a serious situation?

"Okay, then tell us the rest."

"Wait."

The man got up, went inside, and took a USB drive, placing it on the table.

"There's a system in there that will destroy your view immediately after you've finished reading it. So I suggest you look at it carefully."

Song Qianyi nodded, and after getting what she wanted, the two left the courtyard.

"If you really want to know the specifics of what was said, you can go and take a look on the black market."

The people there are fearless and have far more connections than him; he's only doing small-scale business.

A man's voice came from behind her, and Song Qianyi gripped the USB drive in her hand tightly.

I never imagined that a simple investigation into raw materials would lead to so many troublesome issues.

"Don't worry, things will work themselves out. At worst, we can just cancel the project, and I doubt the Ji Group will hold us accountable."

After all, they didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

Song Qianyi nodded slightly and opened the contents of the USB drive on the phone, only to find that the photos inside showed a shrunken head.

Li Yang was also somewhat surprised, "If I remember correctly, this person seems to be Secretary-General Dai's assistant."

Secretary-General Dai has always served at the highest levels of the country.

At that moment, they finally understood what the man meant when he said he didn't want to go to jail.

If someone were to eavesdrop on what high-ranking officials in country A were saying and found out, they would be in deep trouble.

Seeing that the factory was operating normally, Song Qianyi breathed a sigh of relief, but soon became worried again.

What good is normal operation? They still don't know the specific content of the chat.

"I think the country is going to change some of its strategies, which is why those companies are in a hurry to sign contracts and sell off all the goods they have, otherwise they will all become unsold stock."

If things go wrong, the losses won't just be a few hundred thousand; it's entirely possible to go bankrupt.

Song Qianyi seemed to be thinking, "Even so, there's no need to be in such a hurry. Changing the strategy doesn't mean we can't sell. I just feel like something's not quite right about this whole thing."

Looking at the files on her phone, Song Qianyi fell into deep thought, unaware that the files had been scrolled to the very bottom, and three seconds later the USB drive was formatted.
