408 Dare Not To Give In
Of course, Madam Sun knew that the other party was up to no good and wanted to laugh at her, but she also had her own motives. As long as she could live a good life, what was the big deal about being mocked? Moreover, she was bored sitting here every day, so if others wanted to inquire about family matters and mock her, she could use them to kill time.
With this mentality, Madam Sun’s waiting time in He Mountain Village became more and more comfortable. She even had her own group of friends to chat with when she was free. ...
When Wen Qin discovered this, she thought of a countermeasure and prepared lunch every morning instead. Xiao Hui went straight to the food factory after school, and the location of her lunch break was changed to the office. The factory had also hired two security guards now. Unless one was an employee of the factory, one couldn’t enter.
However, Madam Sun also had countermeasures. Madam Sun took advantage of Wen Qin not wanting to fall out with her in front of her child. She changed the timing to right before dinner. She didn’t go back at night and slept on the brick bed instead. The brick bed was big, so seven or eight people could sleep on it.
As the two of them kept butting heads in the village, the office in City H also received a notice from the steel factory two days later.
Yu Bing only brought Xiao Sheng and Feng Cai.
At the steel factory.
The office where they met this time was changed to a conference room. Other than Allie and Zhao Cheng, the person in charge of the finance department and the deputy factory director also came.
It could be seen that 20,000 yuan had a huge impact even on a profitable steel factory. It was equivalent to the monthly salary of hundreds of employees.
Although it had only been two days, Zhao Cheng was no longer as high-spirited as before. His chin was covered in stubble, and his eyes were bloodshot. His suit was also a little wrinkled at this moment. His eyes were lowered, and he looked listless.
After everyone sat around the rectangular conference table, they began to greet each other.
Then, Allie put on her reading glasses, took out a red-headed document, and began to read the results of Zhao Cheng’s investigation.
“Zhao Cheng has already admitted that he set a trap for ‘Delicious Food Factory’. His goal was to obtain a high compensation for breach of contract. After a meeting, we’ve decided that Zhao Cheng will be expelled from public service and given a serious demerit record on his file.”
Yu Bing sneered inwardly. Wasn’t this just a pretense for shirking responsibility?
The two families knew that even if Zhao Cheng revealed his father-in-law, it would only implicate one more person. Therefore, they must have already discussed it in private. If they could save one, they would. The position of deputy factory director was more valuable than the head of the procurement department.
After Allie finished reading, she put down the document, took off her glasses, and smiled kindly at Yu Bing as she said, “It’s a fact that you were deceived by Zhao Cheng, but we’ve already finished planning our budget. At the moment, we really can’t apply for an additional 20,000 yuan, but we also admit that it was caused by poor factory supervision, so as compensation, we’re willing to increase the budget by 10,200 yuan to buy half of your goods.”
Yu Bing patiently listened to Allie tell her about the meeting’s decision. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly as she said in a calm yet sonorous voice, “President Allie, if it weren’t for the fact that he was the head of the procurement department of a state-owned enterprise, my colleague definitely wouldn’t have signed such an unfair contract so easily.”
Then, Yu Bing said earnestly, “Moreover, for a state-owned factory like yours, it’s difficult to increase the budget by more than 20,000 yuan. It’s not that I’m unwilling to give in, but with the burden of hundreds of families’ livelihoods, I don’t dare to give in!”
The steel factory’s leader was silent for a few seconds before the deputy factory director said, “Miss Yu, among all our orders, the most expensive order is only a little more than 10,000 yuan. State-owned enterprises have our own protocol system.”
“In order to prevent embezzlement, we have regulations. The corresponding cooperative price for daily purchases can’t exceed the corresponding amount. Moreover, our budget for gifts is already at the maximum. We only obtained this 10,200 yuan order after two meetings.”
The rules of these state-owned enterprises were especially rigid. Yu Bing knew that the other party wasn’t lying, so she asked, “What about daily employee benefits?”
