Chapter 64 Stone Factory

"ah?"

this……

Zhang Shuai was stunned by the question!

"No, how could it be possible? What were you thinking about?"

"No? Then you..."

"Oh, when I bought you the candy cake, there was someone selling flowers next to you, so you might have gotten the smell of flowers on you!"

Zhang Shuai is talking nonsense!

"How can you sell flowers next to someone selling candy cakes? Won't they get fumed by the oil?"

As expected, telling too many lies will easily lead to loopholes. Now there are loopholes everywhere and they cannot be plugged!

"Tsk, why do you have so many questions today? Come back soon, or I'll be worried if you don't!"

Zhang Shuai was afraid that if he continued asking, the situation would only get worse. His brain was already unable to react! He quickly rode his bike to send Tian Xin home!

If he continues talking, even the immortals cannot save him.

well!

Sad things happened one after another.

Five thousand yuan? Where can I find it?

Those who have a good relationship with him in the factory are all poor. Either they have families to support, or their salary is even lower than his and they can't even make up the money!

Zhang Shuai tossed and turned all night long and only fell into a drowsy sleep at dawn!

Tian Xin came to bring him food early in the morning, and when she found out he was still asleep, she asked Master Li to wait for him to wake up and give it to him!

"Did he come home late last night?"

"It's quite late! He might be too tired. Let him sleep a little longer!"

"Oh, I just made this this morning. Two servings. You can eat one first, and the other one when he wakes up!"

"Okay, okay!" Master Li took the food and turned to go into the dormitory!

Tian Xin took a walk around the factory!

Since the factory was built, she hasn't been able to manage it properly. Li Baiwan has always been in charge of the management. She just has a nominal position in the factory, but she doesn't actually have a position. She just plays a supervisory role!

This factory is connected to a quarry. Workers mine stones, which are then transported to the factory by a fleet of vehicles to be processed into clinker, and then sold to the county cement factory!

The factory is not big, with about a hundred employees. They are divided into technical workers, transport workers and several management personnel!

Tian Xin rarely came to the factory, as she mostly focused on dried persimmons and agricultural products. She contacted Li Baiwan directly for any factory matters, so she wasn't very familiar with them.

The ones I know best are Zhang Shuai and the others!

She looked at the time. It was already working time, but most of the skilled workers were still lazily wandering around the factory. The convoy that was transporting to the quarry had left early in the morning, while the truck responsible for transporting to the county town was still waiting for shipment!

She said nothing and walked into the office area!

This office area has a laboratory, a finance office and a manager's office!

The person in charge of the testing was a stranger, one Tian Xin had never seen before. He looked to be around forty years old! Testing usually took an hour, and workers were allowed to rest after each test. It was a relatively leisurely job!

But it is indeed a very important link in production. Once unqualified products are detected, adjustments must be made immediately to ensure that subsequent products meet the qualified standards, otherwise there will be heavy losses!

Tian Xin saw this man sitting at his desk reading a newspaper and making tea on the electric stove used for laboratory work.

She said nothing and continued looking back.

The room next door is also a laboratory. There is no one in it. I don’t know where they went, but there is also a stove for making tea!

If this breaks out into a fire, it will be too late to put it out!

Tian Xin went in and unplugged the electric stove!

As she was leaving, the employee came back. Seeing the electric stove was unplugged, he immediately started yelling, "Who are you doing? Why are you unplugging my stove?"

Tian Xin glanced back at him and said calmly, "Aren't you afraid of a fire when you're not around? Don't you know this common sense about electrical safety?"

"Who are you? You're meddling in other people's business!"

Tian Xin had already left, but after hearing this, she lost her composure: "What do you mean by meddling in other people's business? It's fine if you used the electric stove to make tea in the office during work hours, but how much trouble would it take for you to turn it off? If there was a fire, would you be able to take the responsibility?"

"Hey! You're such a sharp-tongued girl. Who's your father? Whose family are you from?"

"My dad is gone. Do you want to go find him?"

"I...you...you kid, go go go out and play!"

Seeing that he couldn't convince Tian Xin, the man pushed her out and closed the door!

Hey, I have a bad temper--

Tian Xin walked to the window, pushed it open, and shouted inside: "Uncle, don't blame me for not warning you. If you continue to use this stove like this, this office may not be able to accommodate you!"

After saying that, she closed the window and walked away!

"What did you say? Don't go!" The man chased out!

Tian Xin was in the finance office next door, but he didn't see her. She stood at the door and cursed: "What kind of girl is so uneducated? She speaks without restraint when she sees her elders and dares to say anything! If you have the guts, come and fire me. I don't believe you have the guts to drive me away..."

Before he could finish, Tian Xin was already standing in front of him, with Li Baiwan standing beside her.

"Director! Excuse me, excuse me, why are you here?"

"Why am I here? Tian Xin and I are inspecting the work. What are you doing here? Why are you scolding him? This is the deputy director of our factory? Don't you recognize him?"

Li Baiwan is indeed a businessman. He called Tian Xin the deputy factory director just to give her face. In fact, it was just a hollow position. But the message he conveyed to the employees was: Don't mess with this person!

Sure enough, when the employee heard that Tian Xin was the deputy director, his face turned pale with fear. He quickly apologized to Tian Xin: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I was just talking nonsense. You guys are busy, you guys are busy, I'm going back first!"

When Tian Xin saw that the man had gone back, she thought to herself, forget it. It was inappropriate to embarrass employees in front of Li Baiwan, it was a bit like bullying!

But when she glanced at the window, she saw that tea was still boiling on the electric stove, so it seemed that the power was plugged in again!

Hey! This is a fight!

Tian Xin took a deep breath and gave Li Baiwan a wink!

When Li Baiwan saw Tian Xin constantly raising her chin towards him and pointing at the sample storage room, he took a look inside!

The employee was pretending to work, and the tea on the electric stove had already boiled, and the tea was overflowing with a "sizzling" sound.

"Zhang Zengqiang, what are you doing?" Li Baiwan shouted!

"I, I'm working, Director!"

"The electric stove is unplugged!"

"Oh, oh, yes, yes!" Zhang Zengqiang quickly unplugged the electric stove!

"Let me ask you, what is this electric stove used for?"

"Do... do tests!"

"Oh! You knew that? I thought you didn't know?"

"I was wrong. I'll put it away. Don't be angry, I'll put it away now!" Zhang Zengqiang put away the electric stove and placed the boiled tea on the table!

"Go and check to see who is still using the electric stove like this. Give them a reminder. If I find out again, you'll be kicked out!" Li Baiwan said to Zhang Zengqiang.

"Okay, okay! I'll go and see! Director, don't be angry, I won't need it anymore!" Zhang Zengqiang was trembling with fear!

As expected, Li Baiwan’s words are still effective!

Tian Xin took a look, turned around and left!

Li Baiwan caught up and asked, "Tian Xin, what have you been busy with these past two days?"

"Oh, it's the end of the year, and I'm busy with village committee work! What's going on?"

"It's the end of the year, and it's the same at the factory! If you can take a few days off, come over and help me see if there are any problems at the factory recently. The performance this year is not good, and I want to find out the reason. I want to lay off those who can be laid off at the end of the year and recruit a new batch after the New Year!"

"Layoffs?" Why layoffs when everything was fine? Tian Xin's heart was beating fast.

"Well, as you can see, there are many problems in the factory. If we don't make corrections, it will be the same next year. This factory will probably go bankrupt sooner or later!"

"Director, I definitely don't have as much experience as you do in this area!"

"Don't say that. You are a very capable little girl. I heard that you have increased the income of the villagers by a lot this year. Everyone even gave you a red robe!"

"Everyone is so enthusiastic, I didn't do anything!" Tian Xin felt a little embarrassed.

"Don't be so modest. It was you who proposed to set up this factory. You have to be responsible if there are any problems! Right?" Li Baiwan asked with a smile.

"This..." is totally different!

"Don't feel pressured. I asked you to come here to help me find the problem. As for how to deal with it, that's my business. Of course, most of the employees are from the same village, and I understand your difficulties. Don't worry, we're not targeting people, we'll definitely not do anything rash!"

Li Baiwan dispelled Tian Xin's concerns.

"Okay! I'll give it a try! It might not work!"

"Okay, it's settled then!"

Li Baiwan didn't give Tian Xin a chance to refuse. Is he going to make a big move now?

Layoffs? Inventory?

Looks like I'll be busy for a while!
