Upon hearing Huang Qinqin say she had a solution, Xu Junhui immediately moved a small stool and sat down.
He asked expectantly, "What method? Tell me, my dear wife."
Huang Qinqin gave him a heads-up: "Let me make this clear first, this can be considered a bad idea."
"After you hear this, think it over carefully before deciding whether or not to use it."
Xu Junhui said dismissively, "Even a bad idea is still an idea. If things continue like this, I'd rather go work in the factory."
"I don't even need to try it. Just thinking about having to get up at four o'clock every day in the future makes me collapse."
"And with his purchasing method, I'll have to work even on weekends from now on."
Alright, since Xu Junhui has said so, Huang Qinqin will boldly voice her terrible idea.
"Here's what I think: I think that Cheng Haizhu is just making a fuss because he wants to push you out of the picture."
"Then he wanted to take control of the cafeteria's purchasing power himself."
"Since he wants this purchasing authority, then give it to him."
"Tell the people you know in advance that you will no longer be in charge of the factory's food procurement."
"From now on, there's no need to trouble them for anything, nor to make things difficult for him."
"He should just accept the same treatment as other units when they purchase ingredients."
"Then you should also talk to the factory about it."
"You should tell the leader that, based on what Comrade Cheng Haizhu said, you've realized that your previous procurement work was terrible."
"Since you're planning to take responsibility and be transferred, think carefully about your job position and see if you can get your supervisor to arrange a transfer for you."
"Or, you can take a few months off, which will allow you to take maternity leave together with me."
"Then when I was in postpartum confinement, I was able to take care of myself and my children with peace of mind."
"Anyway, we don't need your salary for those few months, and you can take a break. What do you think?"
Xu Junhui's eyes lit up as he listened; he felt that Huang Qinqin's idea was absolutely brilliant!
If we follow Huang Qinqin's method, Cheng Haizhu will collapse in less than half a month.
Because when Xu Junhui first started purchasing ingredients, he was often the last one to receive them.
It wasn't because he arrived late, but because he had cultivated good relationships with the purchasing agents of each factory.
Have someone else prepare in advance, or help them deliver the ingredients to the factory first.
Some new purchasing agents, or those with insufficient connections, will have to wait until the very end.
Even if it's the last time, it will be delivered by 9 or 10 o'clock at the latest.
But you should know that there are only two chefs in the cafeteria.
Generally, they start cooking around 10 a.m. and prepare all the food before the workers leave work.
Otherwise, things will be chaotic when the workers get off work.
Therefore, if the ingredients are not delivered until 9 or 10 o'clock, it will significantly affect the chef's schedule.
It could even lead to workers not having their meals ready by the time they finish their shift.
Because washing and chopping vegetables is a huge undertaking.
If the late opening of the cafeteria was due to the workers' own fault, then they have only themselves to blame.
However, if the food was delivered late, then it has absolutely nothing to do with the cafeteria workers.
If this happens too often, the workers will definitely complain, and the canteen staff will also complain.
Cheng Haizhu's ultimate fate was obvious.
Having figured out the connection, Xu Junhui happily made his decision: "This is a good idea!"
"I'll go back to the factory tomorrow to ask for leave, so I can rest and take good care of you during your postpartum period. Hehehe~"
Xu Weiguo looked at Huang Qinqin with some anticipation when he saw that she had come up with a solution for Xu Junhui.
"Qinqin, can you help Dad think of a way to stop that old lady from coming over?"
Huang Qinqin really wanted to say no, because just from listening to Xu Weiguo's account, she knew that this old lady was quite difficult to deal with.
However, seeing Xu Weiguo looking at her expectantly, she still tried her best to think of a solution for him.
Huang Qinqin took a long time to think, so much so that everyone thought she hadn't come up with a solution but was too embarrassed to say it.
Zhang Yumei quickly came to the rescue, saying, "Honey, you're really something."
"Your company has so many people, and you haven't come up with a solution in so long. Now you're asking Qinqin? Aren't you putting her in a difficult position?"
"Qinqin, if we can't figure it out, we won't think about it anymore. Anyway, that old lady won't have much of an impact on your dad."
“He’s in the office every day, not outside, so even if the old lady throws a tantrum, she can’t disturb him.”
Upon hearing her words, Xu Weiguo instinctively wanted to retort.
Unfortunately, Zhang Yumei quickly covered his mouth.
Zhang Yumei didn't want Huang Qinqin to worry too much, as she was already feeling unwell due to her impending delivery.
We can't let her become stressed too.
Xu Weiguo was miserable. He was internally complaining: How could he possibly not be disturbed?!
His office was only a few meters away from the lobby. How could he not hear that old lady shouting so loudly?
After snapping out of her thoughts, Huang Qinqin saw that Xu Weiguo's mouth was being covered by Zhang Yumei, and quickly said, "Mom, let go of Dad first."
"Dad seems to be having trouble breathing."
Zhang Yumei then hurriedly turned her head to look at Xu Weiguo.
Then we noticed that although he wasn't completely out of breath, his face was indeed turning red.
Zhang Yumei quickly let go and preemptively said, "Are you stupid? Can't you talk if you can't breathe?"
Xu Weiguo: . . . . . .
He wanted to speak, but the problem was that she was covering her mouth; how could he say anything?
Seeing Xu Weiguo's mournful expression, Zhang Yumei guiltily looked away.
"Dad, I want to ask, does that old lady have anyone else in her family?"
"It's about whether she has a son or grandson or something, preferably someone who has a job."
Xu Weiguo scratched his chin somewhat awkwardly: "This, this, we haven't looked into it..."
It's a little embarrassing to say, but a group of people in their unit spent so much time researching and came up with so many solutions.
Surprisingly, not a single person mentioned that they should target the old lady's family.
Seeing that Huang Qinqin was speechless, Xu Weiguo quickly tried to make amends, saying, "Well, I know that the old lady has a grandson."
"And it seems her grandson just found a job a few days ago."
Xu Weiguo wasn't stupid. As soon as he heard Huang Qinqin's question, he knew that Huang Qinqin wanted to start with the old lady's family.
He was right; Huang Qinqin was indeed planning to start with the old lady's family.
