Life went on leisurely like this until mid-September.

Song Yan works at a hospital, and Chang Xiaohu and Cheng Youfu came looking for her together.

They wouldn't come to the hospital to see her unless it was something important, and they always came together.

Song Yan immediately put down what he was doing: "What happened?"

Chang Xiaohu: "Wang Chunfen was the first to notice something was wrong."

"That's the woman Wen Dajun brought out of the mountains."

Song Yan nodded; she hadn't forgotten Wang Chunfen. "She works at the food factory on Sandao Street, right?"

"That was true before."

However, Deputy Factory Director Deng discovered that this person was particularly sensitive to smells.

She can taste whether there's too much or too little sugar in a cookie.

Didn't they set up a special R&D team for new products in Anshun? I transferred her there more than ten days ago.

She was extremely diligent and hardworking, truly treating the factory like her own home.

When Chang Xiaohu mentioned Anshun, he was referring to the roast duck workshop. It had been renamed Anshun Food Co., Ltd.

Wang Chunfen noticed that the two people who worked at the distillery seemed to have something in their bags every day when they left work.

She observed for two or three days and confirmed that they had taken the goods out of the factory.

She reported this to me.

I sent people to observe, and it's true!

In fact, factories conduct inspections after get off work to prevent customers from taking food out of the factory.

However, the inspection of the two people working at the distillery was more lax.

They brewed wine, bottled wine that was huge. They couldn't possibly take it out of the country.

Unexpectedly, what they took out was yeast, and the amount was always very small, so no one would notice.

I caught them stuffing it into their pockets today.

They both readily admitted it, and even refused to take their wages for this month, saying they were quitting.

This is just not right!

Their salaries are higher than others.

It's not easy for someone from out of town to find such a high-paying job.

Their families are struggling financially, so why does this job suddenly seem unimportant?

I was too hasty. I alerted them before I even uncovered their shady dealings!

They learned how to brew wine, and you also taught them how to make yeast.

Now they've taken a lot of the finished yeast out with them.

They said they're quitting, so there's really nothing we can do to them openly for the time being!

However, I detained the two of them temporarily. When I questioned them, they wouldn't say anything.

Youfu immediately took people to the winery for inspection.

Mid-Autumn Festival is just around the corner, and you and the factory both need a batch of wine, but they haven't brewed much at all.

There definitely won't be enough for the Mid-Autumn Festival!

"With the Mid-Autumn Festival so close now, it's too late to start brewing wine."

"It's all my fault. It's my negligence in management."

There were only two people at the distillery, and they were in charge of brewing. I was careless with those two! Cheng Youfu felt extremely guilty.

His main responsibility is factory management.

Song Yan said he wanted to find two honest and reliable people, and these two really are honest and reliable!

Chang Xiaohu: "They've learned the secret recipe for making wine, and we still don't know how to punish them!"

I don't know if they're planning to go it alone or if they've sold the formula. I'll have someone investigate this thoroughly.

There was one thing that not only they, but even the two brewers, were wrong about.

The wine was good not because of a secret recipe, but because of the space it was made of. Later, Song Yan simply added spring water to it.

Therefore, their claim of leaking the secret recipe is not a big deal at all.

"I should take responsibility for this."

I contacted them directly about the brewing process and didn't involve you much.

When I need wine, I just go to the distillery to get it. I just tell them how much wine I need and they make it for me.

To be honest, I didn't really care about this.

There must be a reason why Youfu thinks they are honest and capable. Tell me about their background! Song Yan asked.

Cheng Youfu: "One of them is named Zhang Liguo, a veteran. He was introduced by one of his former comrades."

His family was extremely poor. His child was sick, and his wife was also in poor health. When he came to work, the factory gave him an advance on his wages.

Otherwise, his family wouldn't even have enough to eat.

One is Yu Bing, the younger brother of Yu Qiang, a veteran. Because of family difficulties, he has never been able to afford to find a wife.

We didn't lack people here at the time, but both of them were in really bad situations. Especially Yu Qiang, he pestered me for a long time.

If I can arrange one job, I won't be short of another, so I'll arrange jobs for both of them.

Both of them used to be exceptionally capable.
