Besides, they had previously charged Lin Xiaoxiao 10% more than others, and now that she's increasing her volume, she's only saying she'll restore the market price. If they can negotiate this, they could consider expanding their factory.
After this matter was discussed, Lin Xiaoxiao and her team could only take back the usual amount they received. The fact that things didn't go smoothly today didn't mean there wouldn't be opportunities in the future.
Lin Xiaoxiao and Ren Jianguo chatted enthusiastically with the director as usual, while Han Qiulin occasionally told a joke. After all the goods they needed were ready, the group got into the car and went back.
The smiles on the three people's faces vanished the moment they got into the car.
Han Qiulin, being young, was even more impatient and couldn't help but slam his hand heavily on the passenger side of the car, making a loud "bang".
"Damn it, I don't believe this is some kind of factory connection; someone is definitely trying to sabotage us!"
Lin Xiaoxiao and Ren Jianguo were no better than Han Qiulin.
Ren Jianguo also joined in the cursing: "Damn it, we finally managed to get back together with our brothers to do things, and someone is actually doing this to us behind our backs. Just because we're missing limbs, they don't take us seriously, huh?!"
"Hmph, I will make them regret going against us." Lin Xiaoxiao's eyes grew colder and colder, and as she spoke, she seemed to emanate a chill from her entire body.
Lin Xiaoxiao didn't let herself get angry. Instead, she said to the two people in the car, "Whether this order was placed by a relative of the factory manager or someone else, we'll find out by checking."
“I share your thoughts. It’s very possible that the person behind this order is connected to the group that set the fire. Whether they are or not, we can’t let any clue slip by now.”
"Qiulin, these next few days you'll be helping your brother with things at the factory. Jianguo, you should gather a few brothers and work hard to stay at the textile factory here. We need to figure out who wants such a large order."
"It's best to find out who the other party is, and if the situation allows, get in touch with their network of connections as well."
"If we find out that they are really targeting us, whether it's one family or several, we'll settle the score when I get back."
Ren Jianguo readily agreed: "No problem, we've done this all the time before. When you come back, I'll definitely give you a clear list."
Han Qiulin nodded heavily: "Okay, I will follow my brother closely."
Since Ren Jianguo was definitely one of their own, after all, his family was aligned with the Han family, Lin Xiaoxiao shared all the information she knew in the car.
Based on the metal bucket, the shoe print, and the button pattern, she still had no clue who it was. One person's thinking is limited, but three people's thinking might have more ideas.
Lin Xiaoxiao took out a button and passed it around among them to look at.
Sure enough, Ren Jianguo provided a clue: "This button doesn't belong to us."
"It doesn't belong to any of our factory's brothers."
"I've been here for so long and I've never seen buttons like these."
Lin Xiaoxiao: Are you sure?
Ren Jianguo drove the car, his eyes unusually firm: "I'm sure."
"We veterans also have clothes with patterned buttons, but we are only allowed to wear them on more important occasions. In daily life, we are very careful about wearing such clothes."
"So, it's definitely not one of our brothers, but I don't know if they're from the military."
Hearing these words, Lin Xiaoxiao couldn't help but feel annoyed. If only she had secretly installed a miniature surveillance camera when the factory was set up, she wouldn't have had to guess like this now.
Not only does this make the situation seem exceptionally complicated and difficult, but it might also damage the relationship between them and their brothers.
Once the factory is completed, all the high-tech features that should be installed in the space will be put there.
The three of them talked about this topic as they headed toward the department store and the supply and marketing cooperative.
The factory's stock has all burned, and we can't supply goods on time. We still need to let you know; it's the least we can do to show respect.
Fortunately, none of the many supply and marketing cooperatives and department stores had been tampered with. When Lin Xiaoxiao and the others explained the reason, they said they could understand and would wait for the next delivery.
With things settled here, all that's left is to deal with sourcing inventory and getting everyone back to work.
Lin Xiaoxiao spent her afternoon calling the director of the textile factory to get a sense of what he was saying.
Holding the phone, the director couldn't help but remind Lin Xiaoxiao, "After discussion, we've decided to increase the order volume for you. However, preparing your goods will take time, so delivery will definitely not be as timely as before."
"You'll have to wait a bit longer."
Lin Xiaoxiao nodded: "Thank you, Director. But we can't afford to cut off our supply right now. I don't need much right now, could you please give me the original amount first?"
Director: "Well... I'll try to communicate with them again. If the shipment volume isn't too large, maybe we can discuss it."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Xiaoxiao was completely exhausted. Damn it, she hadn't been this tired in a long time. Her days were usually very easy and comfortable. It was all because of those bastards behind the scenes who had caused all this trouble.
Just you wait, all of you just wait!!!
After eating a quick bite, she got back to work. Despite her complaints, she still had to get the work done. So many of her brothers were waiting for her to eat, and she was also worried about whether she could go back.
Since we've invited them all, we should take responsibility.
Lin Xiaoxiao took out a lot of things from her spatial storage and went to the military base with Han Qiulin.
Everyone has been on edge these past two days. Han Qiushi didn't rest yesterday and is still working with them today. The atmosphere is very tense. She thought she would bring some food and treats to help everyone relax a bit.
They parked their small truckload of goods in an empty warehouse belonging to the military.
During the construction of the factory, everyone had nowhere to work, so the leaders decided to use the warehouse for a while. Once the factory was completed, everything would be moved there.
At this point, the benefits of cooperating with the military quickly became apparent. Lin Xiaoxiao and Han Qiushi didn't need to worry about the factory's hardware facilities or the workers.
The main reason was that Lin Xiaoxiao did too much work, and Han Qiushi felt sorry for her hard work. This time, he even went to the leaders to complain about being poor, saying that the factory's sewing machines had been producing scrap fabric these past few days.
They decided to expand and recruit more people. These problems can't be solved by just them alone; the leaders also need to contribute, otherwise the issue of the headcount ratio will be hard to predict.
The leaders were at their wits' end with Han Qiushi's cunning, so they took on the task of finding a sewing machine.
