"Uncle Wu, don't worry. We are here to discuss cooperation. We aim for a win-win situation. If it's not suitable, we can just move on to another company. There will always be a suitable partner." Li Miaomiao saw Accountant Wu's nervousness and comforted him.
"That's right. The provincial capital is so big, there are more than one paper mill. There must be one willing to cooperate with our village."
Wang Chunhua also said this with a somewhat angry tone. Last time the paper mill incident became so chaotic, everyone was very angry.
When they arrived at the paper mill, Li Miaomiao did not take any other route this time. Instead, she took out the approval document from the county and went to find the person in charge of the paper mill.
"Not everyone can see the person in charge. You need to explain the situation clearly."
"Comrade, I've explained the situation clearly. We have a soap workshop in our village. The paper mill in the county is too small, and the wrapping paper it produces doesn't meet our soap workshop's requirements. That's why we came all the way to the provincial capital. This is the note our leader approved."
Li Miaomiao took out all the prepared things
"Okay then, follow me."
With the approval of the Tong County leaders, the receptionist took them to the factory director's office.
"I've heard about your intentions, but your village is just a small workshop. The quantity is too small for our factory to accept."
Although they had the approval from the Tong County leaders, their factory was a large one in the province. The approval would at most allow Li Miaomiao and the others to come in, but it would not make them look at them any differently.
"We know this, but I also hope that Director Wei can trust our strength. In the days of future cooperation, we will definitely have many orders, but the prerequisite is that your factory's wrapping paper can meet the requirements of our village."
Director Wei found Li Miaomiao's words a little funny. He thought that this girl must have come from the countryside and had never seen the world. She actually said such a thing, thinking that he was useless as a factory director and was as ignorant as her.
How productive can a soap workshop in the countryside be?
Isn't it a joke that you are cooperating with them for a long time and are picky about the quality of the wrapping paper produced by their factory?
Not to mention Director Wei, even Accountant Wu and Wang Chunhua felt a little embarrassed, thinking that Li Miaomiao was exaggerating a bit and was just bragging.
Even their small paper factory in Tong County complained that their workshop had too few orders, let alone such a large paper factory in the provincial capital. They saw it when they just came here. There were rows of factory buildings, and even the office was so large, which shows how big this factory is.
"Your name is Li Miaomiao, right? Comrade Li Miaomiao, I admire your courage, but you must also be practical. We are still busy with things at the factory. For small orders like these from your workshop, you can just come to your county and make them. There's really no need to come all the way to the provincial capital."
"Director Wei, we've all come all the way from Tong County. We've come such a long way, how could we not be so confident? Now that I've said this, it means I have my own support. Director Wei, why don't you give us some more time? I believe that if you let us go now, we won't be the ones to suffer. After all, there's more than one paper mill in the provincial capital, and we can still choose other partners."
Director Wei really didn't expect Li Miaomiao to become more and more arrogant and even say such words. He was so angry that he laughed.
"Comrade Li Miaomiao, I'll give you five more minutes. If you can't convince me, please leave our paper mill immediately. This is not the place for you to play around!"
Director Wei spoke so harshly that both Accountant Wu and Wang Chunhua looked unhappy.
Li Miaomiao, on the other hand, seemed to be unaffected at all. She didn't even try to defend herself, but just took out a bar of soap from her handbag.
"Director Wei, this is our reliance. I would like you to try the soap produced in our village for five minutes."
Since Director Wei had already made the statement, he did not go back on his word. When he saw the soap that Li Miaomiao took out and the beautiful pattern on the soap packaging, he was stunned for a moment, then nodded and really tried the soap that Li Miaomiao brought.
The soap was more useful than he had expected, and it was surprising that a country workshop could produce soap of such quality.
"Director Wei, I once heard a saying that good things speak for themselves. You'll know whether the soap in our workshop is good or not after you use it."
"Even so, you're just a workshop, and the quantity is still too small. It's not that I'm deliberately making things difficult for you, but the factory has its own regulations."
Although Director Wei still did not agree, his words became much softer.
The fact that a rural workshop can produce such soap is something that one has to look up to.
"Director Wei, there's one thing I haven't explained. Because our workshop is short of funds, we'd like to exchange soap for yours."
When Li Miaomiao said this, Director Wei was stunned.
"Exchanging soap for wrappers?"
The factory had done this before, but Director Wei had never expected to cooperate with the soap workshop in Fanglin Village in this way.
That's certainly good.
This was truly an era of extreme material shortages. Even though their paper mill was performing well, the supplies in this area were limited. In fact, this was true for all units, so they had to find ways to solve the problem on their own.
If you exchange soap for wrapping paper, not to mention that it does not violate regulations, there are some inappropriate aspects. There is room for maneuver and the difficulties of the factory employees must also be resolved.
"Yes, that's okay, right? Our village's soap workshop was built not long ago, and we're a little short on funds, so we'd like to use soap as collateral. We've already consulted the county leaders before coming here, and both our county secretary and mayor agree."
Director Wei is also a smart man. As soon as he heard what Li Miaomiao said, he understood what she meant and why she was so confident just now. He felt a little admiration for her.
I'm afraid the people from Fanglin Village had already discussed it before they came, and they weren't worried at all that they wouldn't agree.
Comrade Li Miaomiao was right. If they did not cooperate with Fanglin Village, it would be a loss for their factory.
"Of course, there are precedents for doing this. We should support the work of our peasant comrades."
"That's great. Although our village's soap workshop has just been built, it has been developing. In the future, we will not only produce soap, but also soap, and more products will be launched later. Your factory supports us so much, and our workshop's future products can also be provided to your factory first."
After Li Miaomiao said this, Director Wei felt even happier. He could agree to such a thing without having to hold a meeting to discuss it, but he still had to go through the formalities.
"Let me put it this way, Comrade Li Miaomiao. This is no small matter. I have to call a meeting of the factory's leadership team before signing a contract with you. But in the meantime, you can discuss with the comrades in the design department to see what kind of wrapping paper you want for your village soap." More updates, please vote.
