After finally appeasing the old man, the group finished eating the beef noodles that Han Qiushi had packed back, and then went about their business.
Since Zhao Jiu had already been arrested, Lin Xiaoxiao saw no need to stay and went to the factory with Han Qiushi.
After arriving at the factory, Ren Jianguo showed Lin Xiaoxiao the account books for that period of time.
Lin Xiaoxiao had talked to them before. Since she was letting them run their own business, it would be best if they could also manage the bag factory. However, if they did it together, it would definitely be very busy. After all, there were so many people to manage, and managing the personnel alone would require a lot of thought.
Ren Jianguo and his team were already quite adept at managing the garment factory's business. Managing it wasn't difficult; they just needed to control the procurement and distribution of goods.
So Lin Xiaoxiao thought about it and decided that she still needed to pick some people from among them who could help Ren Jianguo manage things better. If Lin Xiaoxiao was away for a long time, she would also have a few people to make decisions on the major issues.
Lin Xiaoxiao only offered ideas and assessment suggestions. The specific type of people Ren Jianguo wanted was up to them to figure out. In the future, the managers would have the most contact with them, not with Lin Xiaoxiao for extended periods.
One afternoon, Lin Xiaoxiao followed Ren Jianguo and Chen Shan to interview several people they had selected.
Lin Xiaoxiao wrote down a few of her suggestions on the paper, but the more she wrote, the less satisfied she felt. At least she wasn't very happy with these people. However, she didn't say much and left everything to them to decide.
Seeing everyone hesitating, Lin Xiaoxiao glanced at them and couldn't help but say:
"Actually, there's not much difference between bag factories and clothing factories; they're the same type. If you want to take over personally, just bring up two, and you'll get an extra salary. But if you can't manage it, pick a few more from among them."
"I think you could take over together, but I don't know what your thoughts are?"
It looks like she's doing something very leisurely, but Lin Xiaoxiao used up a lot of brain cells analyzing each one. And besides using up brain cells, there really aren't many usable people among them.
Sitting there, Ren Jianguo and the others exchanged glances, their eyes filled with eagerness.
Ren Jianguo was the first to speak: "I'm thinking of taking over together. Anyway, I'm single and have plenty of time. I'm also familiar with the business. I'd like to earn more money and save up for my wife."
When Chen Shan heard Ren Jianguo say this, he nodded and said, "Sister-in-law, we don't think doing these things is hard work. Money is still very important."
Lin Xiaoxiao smiled and nodded. Actually, that was what she thought too. In this day and age, there is no competition as great as in later generations. Managing an extra factory is not as tiring as it is in later generations.
"If you decide, I'll apply to the higher-ups. You should do some research at the bag factory beforehand, investigate the market, and see how others are doing it. That way, you'll have a better understanding." After saying this, Lin Xiaoxiao continued to look at the bag materials with them.
The bag factory is about to start production. Everything is almost ready, and the staff has arrived. Now the focus is on the products and styles.
"Alright, that's all for today. Oh, and when you're doing your research, make sure to write down the other party's price range so we can use it as a reference when setting our prices."
"Don't worry, these are basic operations. I guarantee the mission will be completed," Ren Jianguo said with a grin.
Lin Xiaoxiao made several bags today and took them all with her before going home. She wanted to take them back to Bai Hehua and the neighbors to see the styles and fabrics. Some people have discerning eyes and can think of things that others can't.
However, on the way back, instead of hearing the various suggestions from everyone, I first heard about the Zhao family.
Yesterday, most of the Zhao family members were arrested. The interrogation was quite a spectacle, with the Zhao family members fighting amongst themselves. The interrogation went more smoothly than expected, and it also provided a great show for many people.
I heard that Grandpa Han and several other elderly people from the compound went there, and the leaders of the detention center personally escorted Zhao Jiu out.
"you....."
When Zhao Jiu saw her old friend, her expression immediately changed.
"Slap slap slap." Before Zhao Jiu could say anything, an old man next to her couldn't help but step forward and slap Zhao Jiu several times.
Zhao Jiu was already injured and hadn't slept all night. The old man didn't stop slapping her at all, and Zhao Jiu could only barely stand by leaning against the wall.
Even in the prison, no one would dare treat him like this. He was slapped in the face right off the bat. Zhao Jiu stared intently at the people in front of him.
"Now you're finally showing your true colors. You've been pretending for so long, why don't you just stop?"
"Oh, right, I forgot. With such a dramatic show at your house yesterday, I guess you're no longer in the mood to pretend."
"It's such a pity I didn't come yesterday. I missed such a great show. If I had known, I would have definitely brought a pot of wine and some melon seeds and sat there to enjoy it." The old man mocked Zhao Jiu.
I'll say whatever hurts the most.
When Zhao Jiu was captured yesterday, he knew very well that he had no way out and that only death could end this matter. As the loser, he had nothing to say, but he still did not know how he had failed.
He thought he had everything under control, but little did he know, he had been silently watched all along. He wanted an answer now, and in a hoarse voice, he asked them, "Who is it? Did you know all along?"
