The procedures for purchasing the processing plant were legal, so this shouldn't be considered a big deal.

But this matter was reported in the newspaper.

When Chang Xiaohu bought the grain and oil processing plant, he offered to donate money, which earned him a lot of goodwill at the time.

He had promised to donate the money to charity, but he didn't donate a single penny.

This is tantamount to lying.

These unscrupulous capitalists tricked us into buying the factory, and then they went back on their word.

How could the government sell the factory to someone like that?

Moreover, the report clearly states which factory the grain and oil processing plant now belongs to.

It is the Sandao Street Food Factory.

Can we still buy food produced by such unscrupulous manufacturers? No, we can't.

Taking back the factory is unlikely, but its reputation will be completely ruined.

To be honest, this has had a really bad impact.

The next day, the details of the sale of the grain and oil processing plant, as well as who the manager was, were reported in the newspapers again.

At this point, everyone also learned that the current general manager of the grain and oil processing plant is named Chang Xiaohu, and he manages the plant manager.

Of course, the Sandao Street Food Factory and its branch factories all belong to him.

The food factory's stores saw a 50% drop in sales that day.

Products from the Sandao Street Food Factory and its branch factories are starting to become difficult to sell in various supply and marketing cooperatives and stores.

The relevant departments should definitely investigate to find out the truth.

Even before the investigation began, returns were already occurring.

If the food has no quality issues, the factory certainly won't agree to a return.

Furthermore, food factories will never work with distributors who request returns.

On the third day, there was another follow-up report on the Sandaojie Grain and Oil Processing Plant and the Sandaojie Food Factory.

The publications mainly featured news about declining sales at physical stores and some customers returning goods, etc.

The period after the Lunar New Year is the off-season for food sales, but even in previous years, it has never been this slow.

When the incident occurred, Pan Lanlan felt that the issue needed to be clarified, but after so many days there was still no progress. She couldn't sit still any longer, so she dragged Du Yu to find Song Yan and Chang Xiaohu.

When something happens, we should think about how to respond to the policy.

Moreover, they clearly keep their word; all they need to do is present the evidence.

Why don't you say anything?

Are we just going to let them talk nonsense?

Pan Lanlan placed three newspapers in front of everyone.

Chang Xiaohu initially felt that they were acting with complete confidence, yet they were being misunderstood, and they should clarify the situation as soon as possible.

At the same time, wouldn't it be enough to catch the person who reported it?

But my second sister-in-law said there was no rush.

Moreover, Pan Lanlan was the one who first received the information about this matter, and Pan Lanlan's idea was to directly submit the evidence to prove that they were framed.

But when Chang Xiaohu asked Song Yan, she said to wait.

Then the story was published in the newspapers, with three reports in five days.

When it was published for the second time, Chang Xiaohu told him to wait and see, and he told him to wait again the third time.

Pan Lanlan: "If we keep waiting like this, our store's sales figures will be nonexistent!"

The decline in retail sales and returns are not a major blow to them, not even a minor one.

But we can't let things continue like this; they'll lose all credibility in the public eye.

Du Yu also looked anxious.

Chang Xiaohu was genuinely anxious, but he always listened to his second sister-in-law, so he behaved relatively well.

Song Yan needs to think of a way to explain to them that they can realize the importance of public opinion.

But they don't understand news hype.

The bigger the sensation this event causes, and the greater the social impact it will have if it turns out to be a complete reversal, the higher the company's profile will be.

Song Yan: "The more public outrage this matter arouses, the more people will pay attention to it. As long as people pay attention to this matter, they will want to know the outcome. Don't you agree?"

I want to keep this going and attract more attention so that more people will know about us in the future!

This is also a way to increase the factory's visibility!

Besides, they provided the platform for us, so it didn't take us any time or effort!

Du Yu: "You can do that?"

Pan Lanlan: "So if we don't come forward to clarify now, do you think we're not getting enough attention?"

I'm afraid that even if I clarify things, people won't believe me!

Song Yan: "It's not about the amount. If we don't react, what do you think the people behind us will think of us?"

"It's because we're cowards!" Pan Lanlan got angry just thinking about it.

Song Yan: "I want to wait and see. If they realize we're timid and guilty, will they take advantage of us?"

Anyway, for us, the difference between a few days earlier or later isn't that significant.

Pan Lanlan couldn't help but sigh. "I was thinking that if someone else makes a move, we should fight back, right?"

You're still thinking so much?

I don't want to give them a chance to push their luck!

"Actually, it would be quite interesting to turn things around when they're feeling smug, wouldn't it?" Du Yu said uncertainly.

If that's the case, it seems like it would work.

Everyone couldn't help but nod in agreement.

Song Yan: "Have the bedding and food donated by the main factory to the nursing home arrived yet?"

"It's all in place, and I followed my sister-in-law's advice to strictly control the quality. Everything we donated is of good quality!" Chang Xiaohu said.

"Have you resolved the serious shortage of desks and chairs in Desheng County's middle and primary schools?" Song Yan was asking Du Yu.

Desheng County is an extremely poor place, the very place where Song Yan once went to provide medical assistance.

The students at the county middle school all used broken desks and rotten chairs.

Du Yu nodded: "They're all in place!"
