Guo Fengsheng turned to look at Lin Yifeng, a hint of helplessness in his eyes.
"Brother Feng, just like you thought, someone is indeed causing trouble."
Lin Yifeng looked serious and gestured for Guo Fengsheng to explain.
Guo Fengsheng nodded and then patiently began to explain.
This happened three months ago. Three months ago, when small shops in various places started to stock up on the product, some people were saying in private that Xiangpiaopiao was being investigated and might go bankrupt.
The factory can't even deliver milk tea powder anymore.
This rumor itself is not very credible. After all, how could a big factory not be able to deliver goods?
However, Xiangpiaopiao currently has many partners, and even small shops in mountainous areas sell their products. These are all small-scale businesses.
After hearing about this, who would dare to consider stockpiling the goods? They would immediately return them without hesitation.
The rumor itself was unlikely, but it made everyone believe that something had really happened, so the news spread like wildfire. Even though it was false, a large number of people are now flocking to the distributors to return the goods, making it seem like a real thing.
This situation wouldn't have occurred if there hadn't been a problem with transportation capacity.
After hearing Guo Fengsheng's explanation, Lin Cuilan also started cursing loudly from the side.
"What kind of scoundrel is causing this trouble?"
"If I knew who it was, I'd tear their mouth apart."
Lin Yifeng also frowned.
He hadn't expected the rumors to spread, but now that they had happened, Lin Yifeng had to find a way to deal with them.
He looked at Guo Fengsheng in front of him and whispered his instructions.
"Old Guo, like this."
"Have someone go down and investigate to see where the rumors came from."
"This matter must be resolved and explained."
Lin Yifeng's eyes turned cold.
"We must find the person and make an example of them."
When Lin Cuilan and Guo Fengsheng saw Lin Yifeng's expression, their hearts skipped a beat.
Lin Cuilan repeatedly tried to stop her.
"Yifeng! You mustn't do anything foolish!"
"This is all legitimate business."
"There's no need!"
Guo Fengsheng nodded vigorously in agreement.
Lin Yifeng was both amused and exasperated by their anxious expressions.
"What I'm saying is, sue him."
"What are you two thinking?"
These words also gave Lin Cuilan and Guo Fengsheng a sigh of relief.
Normally, if this kind of thing were to go through the proper legal process and be brought to court, it would take at least six months to get a result. Moreover, since this is a lawsuit for defamation, the chain of evidence is very problematic.
It is generally difficult for courts to issue a judgment in such cases, and they are also unlikely to accept such cases.
But Lin Yifeng's situation is different. Xiangpiaopiao, as a pillar enterprise of Gongcheng, is specifically here to drive the economy of the county, which is a good thing for both the city and the province.
From this perspective, Xiangpiaopiao is definitely a key enterprise in the province and city.
If you cause trouble for Xiangpiaopiao, aren't you just making things difficult for these leaders?
After Lin Yifeng asked Guo Fengsheng to handle the matter, Guo Fengsheng immediately went to Wallace to find someone from outside to go downstairs and take a look.
Not only the people here, but even Liu Shengxing heard the news and was preparing to arrange for his reporters to go around and see if there were any clues.
Soon, Lin Yifeng's companies began mobilizing people to help Lin Cuilan investigate the matter.
Meanwhile, Lin Yifeng didn't rest. He led the transportation company to the compound and began making arrangements there.
The warehouse yard has been completed. With the dispatch of various companies and the entry of various trucks, it was basically done in two or three days.
Everything was on track, and the three transportation companies immediately began delivering goods to several other cities on a regular basis.
Logistics are also gradually stabilizing.
Meanwhile, after learning about this, Xu Qingyi also stepped in to help find out what was going on.
After leaving a small county town under Wei Du's control, Xu Qingyi parked the car at a small shop on the side of the street and took Song Yunqi to buy two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of water before continuing their journey.
Having gotten used to Xu Qingyi's big crown, Song Yunqi rubbed his sore back and complained to Xu Qingyi about going out in a big Jinbei van.
"Mr. Xu, the Crown is still the most comfortable."
"I always felt that the Golden Cup was lacking something."
Xu Qingyi smiled, lit a cigarette, and sat on a small stool at the entrance of the convenience store, making a joke.
"This is a disease of affluence."
"Many people don't even own a car, we're lucky to have one to go out."
"What, you're starting to complain?"
Song Yunqi scratched his head awkwardly.
For safety reasons, they didn't drive their Crown this time, opting instead for a more discreet Jinbei van.
The two of them traveled along the way, stopping frequently to inquire about information, and actually found a clue.
According to several stores in Gongcheng, they returned the goods after hearing the news from Weidu next door.
After spending two days in Weidu, Xu Qingyi used various market surveys as an excuse to help look after shops and such. She actually found an older brother who said that when they went to the countryside for drinks, a drunkard told them this news.
Xu Qingyi always had a very accurate sixth sense. He felt that the source of this matter would be found soon, so he took Song Yunqi directly to the countryside early the next morning.
Song Yunqi glanced at the shop owner and then lowered his voice to ask Xu Qingyi.
"Mr. Xu, what did the boss say?"
Xu Qingyi took two puffs of her cigarette, her brows furrowing slightly.
He didn't say anything.
"There are no returns here, but he said there's a supply and marketing cooperative not far ahead."
