<h4>Chapter 570: Chapter 570: In the Limelight</h4><h4></h4>


    Jiang Shaoqing and hispanions returned to the surface; he saw off Huang Zhi and the others. He was covered in cold sweat himself, grateful that he had sought out experts! He was also thankful for the serendipitous discovery of the diamond’s location this time; otherwise, even if he had invited more experts, he might have ended up failing just like Huang Zhi and his team.


    If he had taken things lightly, especially during the Spring Festival when some workers would take leave, in order to keep up with production to meet supply, the mine manager might have had the remaining workers work overtime. The chances of an incident urring under those circumstances would have been inevitable.


    Bai Xiao, oh Bai Xiao!


    An Zhiyuan, oh An Zhiyuan!


    You really are my brothers.


    Up until now, he had always believed that whatever news Bai Xiao ryed was actually An Zhiyuan using his wife’s voice to help him.


    An Zhiyuan’s identity was not one to be trifled with; even if he had some ssified information, it couldn’t be shared carelessly. Bai Xiao’s words were on a different level, the kind of ambiguous statements that wouldn’t count as leaking secrets when spoken by others.


    If you took it seriously, of course, it meant one thing, but if you didn’t, it didn’t mean they hadn’t tried to help.


    Jiang Shaoqing immediately ordered a halt in the mine’s production and began seeking experts to devise a n to resolve the matter of the diamond vein.


    Under no circumstance could anything go wrong.


    As soon as the work at his mine stopped, the several thousand workers there refused to ept it. If they didn’t go down into the mine, they wouldn’t get paid. And their basic wages were simply not enough to support their families, especially when thousands of workers faced collective unemployment. When the workers heard the news, it was sure to cause an uproar.


    As a result, during the festive season, thousands of workers blocked the entrance to the government offices. Back then, there was no such crime as obstructing public security, which was legited onlyter.


    The issue was quickly sensationalized by media reporters and broadcast on newspapers and television. The provincial and municipalmittees rapidly mobilized, setting up an investigation team to pacify the miners and intervene in the incident.


    Jiang Shaoqing was directly invited to the provincialmittee as a guest.


    After all, the livelihoods of thousands of workers were at stake. If this major issue wasn’t settled, it was sure to cause social unrest. The province’s leadership took this matter very seriously.


    Once Jiang Shaoqing presented all the files from his exploration report, all the leaders realized the gravity of the situation, and each felt a cold sweat on their backs.


    Had it not been for Jiang Shaoqing’s timely halting of the coal mine production, a copse could have been catastrophic. This particr coal mine involved the lives of thousands, and each descent into the mine shaft implicated the safety of hundreds of workers. Any copse could result in severe casualties.


    Such an incident would have stirred turmoil locally, and not just the Jiang Family would have been unlucky, but these local leaders would also have been ountable.


    It was all due to Jiang Shaoqing’s timely and wise decision; otherwise, it would have been about more than just workers’ wages. Many would have lost their official hats, and provincial and municipal leaders would have been held mainly responsible.


    Therefore, after an entire day of emergency meetings, the provincial authorities, in an effort to cate the thousands of miners, proactively put forward a n. On one hand, they assigned specialists to address the diamond vein issue quickly, having already sought permission from higher authorities for this intervention.


    On the other hand, the government allocated a portion of funds to address the livelihoods of the thousands of workers,pensating them for some of their lost wages during the stoppage, on top of an additionalpensation from the Jiang Family. As long as the workers received some money, they would not make too much trouble even if they were out of work.


    Two monthster, the adamant vein was finally resolved.


    Jiang Shaoqing’s coal mine resumed formal production, and once all the workers returned to the shaft, they finally understood why the mine had stopped working.


    Their employer had saved their lives!


    Do you know how much money the coal mine alone could make from selling the raw coal produced in a single day?


    To ensure the safety of the workers in the mine, they were willing to halt production for two months and provide financialpensation rather than risking their workers’ lives.


    Everyone was even more grateful to the Jiang Family.


    The provincial and municipal leadership specially presented the mine with a banner of honor.


    Theymended Jiang Shaoqing for not gambling with human lives for personal profit and awarded him the title of Outstanding Entrepreneur.


    Suddenly, Jiang Shaoqing was the center of attention.
