Chapter 191 Feast
"My husband hasn't gotten off work yet, so I thought I'd bring the TV home so the kids can have some fun."
Zhao Xiaojuan put the things on the back seat and thanked him.
"Thank you, Miss Tian. This is a new car. Let's be careful not to scratch it."
Hearing this, Tian Lijuan waved her hand nonchalantly: "Well, bicycles are used for riding and carrying things, why are they so precious?"
"Besides, this is a reward from the factory. We didn't spend a penny."
She said this on purpose for Zhu Yanqiu to hear, before the two of them broke up.
Once, the little girl in Tian Lijuan's family had a high fever in the middle of the night. Her husband happened to be away on a mission and was not at home, and the military hospital was quite far away.
She was at a loss at the time and hurried to Zhu Yanqiu's house, wanting to borrow a bicycle.
As a result, Zhu Yanqiu directly replied: "I can't lend it to you. You don't know how to ride it. Don't scratch my bike. It's very expensive."
In the end, she went to find Commander Zhou, who sent a car to take the mother and daughter to the military hospital.
Tian Lijuan is still very angry when she thinks about it now. She is angry that even though others humiliated her like that at that time, she still followed that person happily.
Zhu Yanqiu obviously understood the meaning of Tian Lijuan's words, and her face became extremely ugly.
Even when talking to others, he was absent-minded and was always paying attention to the situation here.
Tian Lijuan was still not satisfied and continued, "I will work hard in the second half of the year to get first place and bring a TV home."
"Sure, I happen to be short of a bicycle at home, so we can just swap."
Just as the two of them passed by, Zhu Yanqiu couldn't help but said in a sarcastic tone.
"I think this is your factory's last carnival. All the business has been snatched away, and you are still just enjoying yourself."
"If you ask me, it's because the factory manager is not managing the factory properly. A good factory is about to close down."
Zhu Yanqiu became more and more proud as she spoke. She is still in contact with Kong Manzhu, mainly to report on Lin Yunxi and the pharmaceutical factory's every move.
She heard all these things from Kong Manzhu.
When Lin Yunxi first came, Zhu Yanqiu could still compete with others.
But after a series of events such as rescuing people, handing over formulas, setting up factories, recruiting veterans, etc., the two were no longer on the same level.
Whether it was the soldiers in the military region, their families, people from the surrounding fishing villages, or even Zhu Yanqiu’s colleagues at school, whenever they mentioned Lin Yunxi, they were full of praise.
This feeling of inferiority made Zhu Yanqiu feel extremely uncomfortable every time she heard it, as if a thorn had been stuck in her heart.
But now it’s different. She has received accurate information that the Beijing Pharmaceutical Factory has "developed" the formula for hemostatic drugs.
Moreover, the price is 30% cheaper than that of the Z Province Military District Pharmaceutical Factory, so many large hospitals have turned to the Beijing Pharmaceutical Factory.
Zhu Yanqiu crossed his arms, looking very proud.
Now she was just waiting to see how Lin Yunxi would resolve this crisis and how she would fall from the clouds to the bottom of the valley.
Even if he became the factory director, in the end he still couldn't beat Kong Manzhu and was a loser.
Upon hearing this, Tian Lijuan instantly exploded and directly retorted.
"I think you are just saying the grapes are sour because you can't eat them. With Yunxi here, the pharmaceutical factory will not go bankrupt even if it runs for hundreds of years."
If this had been said before the mid-year meeting, she might have really been frightened.
But their factory director personally said at the meeting that the factory's turnover in the first half of the year was as high as more than 100 million, not hundreds of thousands or millions.
Tian Lijuan had never even seen ten thousand yuan, so one hundred million seemed like an astronomical figure to her, and she probably would never be able to spend it all in her lifetime.
Their pharmaceutical factory has such strong financial support, Yunxi's leadership and so many professors in the laboratory building, so they have nothing to worry about.
Zhao Xiaojuan also agreed: "That's right, we can't get along with her as an outsider, so let's not waste our time."
"We have to go back and bring our families to the factory for a big dinner. I heard that there will be three movies in a row at the Great Hall tonight. If we go too late, there will be no seats left."
"Really? Let's go quickly then."
After they finished talking, the two of them left without looking back, leaving Zhu Yanqiu, who had a lot to say but no one to defend her, standing there angrily.
Tonight is the busiest night since the pharmaceutical factory was built.
All the employees gathered in the cafeteria with their families.
Because there were so many people, Lin Yunxi specially borrowed dozens of tables from the military area and placed them directly outside the cafeteria, just enough space for everyone to sit.
Tonight, the cafeteria adopted a novel dining model, which their factory director called a buffet.
Pots of prepared meals are placed directly on the table. Employees and their families can take plates and take food according to their preferences, with no limit on quantity.
Tonight's meal can really be called a feast, with chicken, duck, goose, beef, mutton, pork, fish, shrimp, shellfish, seafood, desserts and pasta.
The dishes include chicken stewed with mushrooms, white-cut chicken, beer duck, old duck soup, goose stewed in an iron pot, beef brisket with rich red sauce, fatty beef in sour soup, braised pork, and garlic spare ribs;
Cabbage and pork stewed with vermicelli, braised fish pieces, fish ball soup, garlic scallops, steamed orchid crab, stir-fried blue crab with scallion and ginger, spicy stir-fried snails and braised abalone, etc.
Desserts after the meal include egg tarts, peach cakes, soufflé, yam cakes, milk pudding, Dorayaki, etc.
This was all thanks to the breach of contract fees paid by those hospitals. Lin Yunxi only took one-tenth of it, which was more than enough to host this event.
Today's dinner has become a feast for the children. In this day and age, every family has at least three or four children, resulting in children accounting for more than half of the space in the cafeteria.
Their food improved only after their parents started working at the pharmaceutical factory, but they had never seen or eaten such sumptuous meals.
In particular, there are no restrictions. As long as you are full and don’t waste anything, it’s fine.
When dinner started, all the children sat obediently next to their parents, eating meat with big mouthfuls, with innocent smiles on their faces.
The employees and their families ate, chatted, and laughed in a very relaxed atmosphere.
Someone originally suggested buying some wine and putting a bottle on each table.
But Lin Yunxi disagreed. Whether in modern times or in this era, she hated the drinking culture in the workplace.
When discussing business, you should be sober and serious, instead of relying on drinking, bragging, or using unspoken rules.
After reaching a cooperation, both parties can have a meal together, drink some wine and relax.
Lin Yunxi didn't care what other factories were like, but their pharmaceutical factory must strictly prohibit such behavior.
In the evening, Gu Zheng and Yanyan also came together.
