Chapter 2268

“Hey, Sohn, what’s the matter?”

“Boss, come and take a look! The employees are starting a riot! Now the oil field is in chaos, and some people even threatened to burn the oil field!”

Upon hearing this, Saul stood up immediately.

“What? Is there such a thing? Sohn, help me keep them under control first. I will go there now.”

The oil field was the foundation for Saul to stay in Bashra. If something really happened to the oil field, then Saul would not be able to stay here anymore.

He immediately drove to the oil field, and sure enough, he saw a group of rioting employees just as he arrived at the gate of the industrial park. Saul appeared in front of the crowd.

The restless crowd froze for a moment and suddenly someone spoke. “Look, Mr. Jefferson is here!”

“That’s right, Mr. Jefferson. Let us go back to work or we won’t be able to put food on the table anymore!”

“Mr. Jefferson, if you don’t let us start working, we won’t be able to survive and we won’t forgive you!”

Everyone obviously lost some of their sanity at this time.

Saul also did not expect that he would one day be threatened by his employees.

However, since Saul came here to solve the problem, he immediately said seriously. ”Don’t worry, everyone, I won’t delay your salary or anything. And you have also seen what happened. A new testing rule popped up claiming that we are do not have the rights to sell our oil anymore…”

“We have to close down the oil field and there is no way for us to make a profit. I also have my own difficulties dealing with this!”

Obviously, not many people were willing to believe Saul when he started complaining.

”Mr. Jefferson, stop trying to make yourself sound pitiful. You can still eat delicacies every day after doing that, but we can’t even eat instant noodles!”

“Yeah, Mr. Jefferson. Even after suffering a loss, the rich will still be better off than ordinary people. No matter how poor you are, you can’t be as poor as us!”

Only then did Saul realize that he had said the wrong thing. However, at this time, it was impossible for him to turn back.

At this time, an old employee stood up.

“Mr. Jefferson, we’ve been working here for a very long time and we know the oil produced here is better than anywhere else. That man named Professor Osmond is surely trying to fool us this time. We can’t trust him. Didn’t he say that he could do another test last time? Then call him!”

“If we pass the test, we will continue to work. If we fail, he must give us an explanation!”

When Saul heard this, he was in disbelief.

He was very surprised. As the boss, he was not even as passionate as the old employee in front of him. Therefore, Saul’s passion was also ignited at this time, and he also yelled.

”You’re right! How long have we been building oil fields and factories here? We don’t need to follow this guy’s so-called advice at all. I’ll contact Professor Osmond, By the way, arrange for someone to go to the city to buy another batch of weapons!”

Saul immediately ordered and his men began to split into two groups.

Some people went to the weapons market in the city to buy weapons while another group of people waited here and saw Saul call Mr. Murik again.

“Saul, are you alright?” Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

The call went through, and Mr. Murik began to exchange pleasantries with Saul. Everyone could see that the failure of the last test gave Saul a huge blow.

Saul immediately waved his hand. He looked very calm.

“Don’t worry, Mr. Murik, I’m not someone who can be defeated so easily.”
