Chapter 179 Picking Peaches is Impossible
"I can guess what's happening now, but Director Wu, you can't. If you could have guessed the current situation, you wouldn't have cooperated with us in the first place."
Rutang’s answer is very emotionally intelligent.
Director Wu initially agreed to cooperate with the Rutang family just to make a few hundred dollars, and did not consider the consequences of this matter at all.
He didn't even research why the clothing style given by Rutang was so popular, and he agreed without thinking.
Now that the clothes are about to become a hit, the impact is bound to be huge. All subsequent developments are beyond the control of Director Wu. Even if he wants to hide it, he can't.
Director Wu's mood at this moment was just like when he was forced to drink the tea handed to him by Rutang yesterday. The feeling of being led by the nose by this woman came back again.
But the frustrating thing was that even though he knew that he was being led by Rutang, he had no way to resist. Things were no longer within his control.
At this point, Director Wu was faced with only two options.
First, refuse to cooperate with Rutang and wait to be exposed by the deputy director and fired from the factory.
Second, cooperating with Rutang and taking risks might bring him a chance of promotion.
Regardless of whether Director Wu is willing or not, from the moment he signed the contract with Yu Yaoyang, his fate has been tied to the Rutang family.
"Sister-in-law, I have old people above me and young children to take care of, you won't harm me, right?" Director Wu asked with a very vicissitudes of life look, his eyes already showing a sense of disadvantage.
It doesn't feel good to have your destiny in the hands of others.
"What good would it do us to harm you? To put it bluntly, we all want money."
Everyone is seeking wealth. These four words may seem mercenary, but when they appear in this kind of occasion, they become a reassurance.
Director Wu seemed to have made up his mind and asked Rutang with his fist clenched.
"So, what do you want to gain from me?"
Rutang curled the corner of his mouth.
"One hundred thousand yuan, we will help you upgrade to the next level, and the clothing factory will give us a one-time buyout fee of one hundred thousand yuan to buy out our creativity."
"One hundred thousand? Are you kidding me?" Director Wu's voice broke.
This woman is so bold, she asked for one hundred thousand right away.
What is the concept of one hundred thousand?
The garment factory took an order worth 50,000 yuan, but the profit was only 20,000 yuan. After deducting the workers' wages and machine wear and tear, the profit was just over 10,000 yuan.
This woman asked for one hundred thousand. Is she crazy?
"Believe me, compared to the profit we can make from clothing, it's not much. The superiors will agree. By then, you will be promoted, my family will make money, and we will all have a bright future."
Director Wu still couldn't accept this number. One hundred thousand yuan! It was robbery!
But when he wanted to say something to Rutang, Rutang just smiled and said nothing. He asked Yu Yaoyang for help, but Yu Yaoyang spread his hands and told him not to ask him, because women were in power in his family now and his wife had the final say.
Director Wu had no choice but to leave with a look of doubt in his life.
He had no choice but to take things one step at a time. After all, the 100,000 that Rutang mentioned was a long time in the future.
Only after Director Wu left did Hao Mei and Xiao Li come out of the room.
When they were talking about business just now, these two people consciously avoided the conversation. The soundproofing of the room was not very good, and they heard what Rutang said to others.
"Rutang, are you really asking for one hundred thousand?!" Hao Mei asked impatiently. If she hadn't covered her mouth with her hands, she would have even shouted out loud when she heard this outrageous number.
"Yes, that's right." Rutang nodded.
"You won't get arrested for asking so much, right? What's it called to beg people for money? Gui Ning, you're well-educated, tell me what it's called." Seeing Gui Ning coming out, Hao Mei hurried to ask for advice.
"Blackmail?" Gui Ning looked at Ru Tang.
Rutang nodded and shook her head.
"It is illegal to catch someone's handle and then force them to pay. But our behavior is legal and within the scope of the rules. We don't want any dirty money. Brother Yaoyang and I gave them advice on how to clean up the mess, and it is reasonable to charge them 100,000 yuan for technical guidance."
"How do you know that people are willing to spend this money?" Hao Mei couldn't imagine it. 100,000 yuan, what does that mean?
Just two months ago, becoming a millionaire was her lifelong dream.
The daughter actually mentioned one hundred thousand right away. In Hao Mei's opinion, this number was enough to be sentenced to many years in prison. It was terrifying! When I get excited, my dialect comes out.
"I won't propose an unrealizable number for no reason. First of all, 100,000 yuan is a drop in the bucket compared to the profits I can create for them. Of course, there is also a possibility that they would rather not have more money and refuse to cooperate with me just to save face. After all, this is not their own business."
A garment factory is not a private enterprise. If the people above are selfish and don't want this performance, they may refuse to cooperate just to save their own skin. Things that harm others and do nothing for no good are most likely to occur in such places.
"The reason why I am sure that they will cooperate with us and accept my technical consultant bonus is another reason." Rutang looked at Yu Yaoyang, as if testing the tacit understanding between the two.
Others couldn't guess what she was thinking, but she felt that if it was him, it should be okay.
Yu Yaoyang, who was suddenly called by his wife's eyes, felt like he was called by the head teacher to answer a question in school.
"If the people above want to replace Director Wu and pick this peach, they will definitely use their own confidants, or more likely, directly use their own relatives. Such a huge benefit, not to mention how much gray income they can make, this achievement is enough for the people who pick peaches to move up all the way. They will not miss this opportunity."
Under the gaze of his daughter-in-law's class teacher, Yu Yaoyang gave his answer.
Rutang nodded, smiling.
She knew he would guess.
"I feel a little dizzy..." Hao Mei felt that she didn't understand.
"I seem to understand a little bit." Xiao Li thought.
"Our class has very good grades. Our homeroom teacher taught us for three years. In the fourth year of junior high school, the principal transferred his nephew to be our homeroom teacher, and asked us to take care of the logistics. However, his nephew only taught us for a week, and our class's mock exam results were very bad. The parents went to the principal to make a fuss, and only then did the homeroom teacher get replaced... Is this what my brother-in-law meant?"
Gui Ning is indeed a future scientist. He understood it after listening to it once, and even converted the complicated relationships in the garment factory into relationships that everyone can understand.
"If our class's grades hadn't dropped and the parents hadn't made a fuss, the principal's nephew would have been awarded the title of an excellent class teacher and would have been able to smoothly take over the principal's class in a few years. I heard other teachers talk about this. It was our original class teacher who led us to good grades, but the honor was given to the principal's nephew. It's what my brother-in-law calls picking peaches."
No one cares whether the peaches in this basket are rotten or good, after all, they are public "peaches".
But if the peaches rot in the basket, the person carrying the basket will be to blame.
