CHAPTER 625: CHAPTER 588: THAT’S IT?

Old Zhang stammered as he reported a long string of numbers.

Jun Jiu quickly operated the tablet, then pushed it in front of Yan Yueqing and Old Zhang.

Yan Yueqing extended her index finger and pressed on a spot on the tablet requiring dual verification of fingerprint and iris scan, while also looking at the iris scanner on the screen.

In ten seconds, the money was credited.

Old Zhang heard the sound of a text message, instinctively leaned closer to the screen, and when he saw the balance number of the main account of Sea Star Company, his pupils shrank to the extreme!

The length of that string of numbers... far exceeded his imagination!

Thinking he was seeing things, he rubbed his eyes hard and looked again, then sharply inhaled, his body uncontrollably leaning back, fortunately caught by the back of the chair next to him.

"Pre... President Yan... this... this... this..." he pointed at the long, dizzying string of zeros on the screen, his tongue completely tied and unable to say a word.

It was an enormous fund he never dared to imagine even in his dreams as a little accountant all his life! Just quietly lying in that originally empty company account?!

Yan Yueqing seemed not to notice his loss of composure, her tone still as calm as ordering food: "The principal of the bank mortgage loan and interest due as of today, pay them in full before the end of the workday. Within three days, settle all overdue employee salaries and make up the difference at three times the standard rate. The time range starts from the day Manager Lei began defaulting. Verify specific names and amounts with Manager Lei...

All the payments to suppliers like Hongxin Feed Factory, principal plus interest, must be completed within seven days. Allocate special funds from the account to immediately purchase the highest quality feed, ensuring that the farm receives supplies today, with a reserve for maximum demand for one month..."

With each point Yan Yueqing made, more color returned to Old Zhang’s face, and by the end, his wrinkle-filled old face was flushed with excitement, his eyes shining with unprecedented spark and drive!

"If the time is too tight, shall I arrange for some help?"

"No, no! I’ll get right on it! I guarantee everything will be completed within the stipulated timeframe!" Old Zhang’s voice was loud and powerful. He grabbed the old-fashioned calculator and account book on the table, moved as fast as a gust of wind, and rushed out of the meeting room, as if he suddenly got twenty years younger!

He wants to settle accounts! He wants to transfer money!

He wants everyone to know that Sea Star has come back to life!

Yan Yueqing’s gaze finally fell on Xiao Wang, who had been in a daze, and Old Fang, who was trying to digest everything before him.

"Xiao Wang." Wang Yan, when named, stood ramrod straight with a jolt.

"Your mission—" Yan Yueqing looked at her, "First, immediately get in touch with the distributors we previously cut ties with and tell them, Sea Star will not fall, we have ample funds and the best products. We’re willing to renegotiate the previous contracts, with the condition that they must settle according to the newly established, more reasonable market prices. Those who agree may continue our collaboration. Those who don’t, make a list, and new channels will replace them."

"Second, prepare the highest quality samples of shellfish and grouper. I will later provide you with the contact for the international trade group ’Blue Sea Source’. Send them the samples and all our quality inspection reports. Tell them we’re seeking a long-term, stable, and high-end partnership. Whether we succeed depends on your skill."

Xiao Wang listened to Yan Yueqing’s clear and decisive instructions, and especially upon hearing "the international top seafood trade group ’Blue Sea Source’", she was utterly dumbfounded.

That was a channel they never dared to dream of as a small company before! President Yan was able to connect directly?!

The immense shock left her mind blank, with only instinctive excitement remaining: "Yes! President Yan! I’ll get right on it! I’ll contact them immediately!"

Saying this, she almost ran out the door with an expression of ecstatic disbelief.

Last were Qin Tian, the main person in charge of the farm, and warehouse manager Old Fang.

Qin Tian spoke first: "President Yan, the shellfish deaths occurred very suddenly! We tested the water quality and found no issues, suspecting a new pathogen or toxic substances in the sediment, requiring professional organizations for in-depth testing. The problem with the groupers is mainly due to a four-day feed shortage, along with aging equipment and insufficient oxygen leading to stress reactions..."

"Good." Yan Yueqing nodded, dialed a second phone number, and spoke in fluent English: "Dr. William, I need the best marine pathology and aquaculture emergency response experts from your team to catch the next flight to Hua Country’s Sea City. I am sending you the coordinates and preliminary situation report now. Priority: diagnose and control the massive shellfish death event and stabilize the stressed fish populations. No budget limits. I want a preliminary assessment within 24 hours upon landing."
