Jiang Tang made an appointment with her second aunt early in the morning to go to the chemical plant together.
Along the way, Second Aunt looked a little nervous and kept reminding us, "Tangtang, Section Chief Zhang from the purchasing department of this chemical plant is known for his shrewdness. We have to be careful when dealing with him."
Jiang Tang said confidently, "Second Aunt, I will pay attention."
As you step into the chemical plant, you are greeted by the noisy sounds of machines and the busy figures of workers moving around in every corner.
Second Auntie expertly led Jiang Tang around the area where various raw materials were stored and headed straight for the purchasing manager's office. After knocking on the door and receiving an answer, Second Auntie was the first to enter with a friendly smile on her face. "Hello, Chief! I've brought my niece here today to show you some good stuff." Jiang Tang followed closely behind, also sweetly calling out, "Hello, Chief!"
The section chief raised his head, shifting his gaze from the documents, and replied with a smile, "Oh, so this is the niece you were talking about, a cadre in the commune. Come and sit down. Yesterday, your second aunt came to see you to praise your commune's agricultural products."
Jiang Tang quickly stood up and placed the agricultural product samples he brought on the table one by one, his movements skillful and neat.
Then she picked up a bright red apple and handed it to the section chief, saying, "Uncle Section Chief, look, these are apples grown in our commune. We take good care of them, and they are sweet and juicy. And here are these plums." She then picked up an egg and shook it gently. "And these eggs, too, are laid by free-range hens and are very nutritious. The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon, and these are perfect for employee benefits."
Second Auntie chimed in, "Yes, Chief. In previous years, we only received canned mooncakes. We're tired of them. Why not give us something practical? We in the workshop are all looking forward to receiving something affordable this time."
Jiang Tang continued, "Not only are our products good, but they're also affordable. And if you need quantity, we can definitely meet it. For a chemical plant as large as ours, the employees have worked hard all year, and a little something like this for the Mid-Autumn Festival would surely be a welcome treat. A lot of our commune's agricultural products have already been ordered, and there's not much left. Newspapers, textile factories, and military machinery factories have all placed orders with us."
"Oh, so many factories in our city have ordered your agricultural products. It seems that this year they are all thinking of giving the workers some benefits. We thought so at first too."
When Jiang Tang heard this, his eyes sparkled with excitement and he quickly gave a copy of the quotation to the section chief.
Coming out of the section chief's office, Jiang Tang couldn't contain her inner joy. She exchanged a glance with her second aunt, and they saw smiles in each other's eyes.
Second Aunt patted Jiang Tang's shoulder and said, "You are really capable, girl."
Jiang Tang smiled and replied, "Thanks to you, Second Aunt, for bringing me here. You gave me courage. Second Aunt, a good man never says thank you. Wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I'll get you something good to eat."
"You have such a mouth."
"Tell my second uncle that I'm leaving first."
"Let's go, be careful on the road."
Jiang Tang negotiated a new deal and immediately went to her social media account to share it with Meng Si Ning.
Meng Si Ning just handed Zhao Qunying's list to her: "This is from our unit, take a look."
"You made the decision so quickly. It's a huge amount. Do you have that many people in your unit?"
"In addition to the newspaper delivery, our director wants Liu Nian and me to go down and collect manuscripts about the autumn harvest. We're planning to go to Youcaoling with you, is that okay?"
"That's great. I'm worried about having no one to accompany me. You guys can go for a few days."
"Four days, maybe Zhao Qunying will go too."
"Her? To keep an eye on the purchases?"
"I guess so."
"Does this count as traveling on public funds?"
Meng Si Ning shrugged: "I work seriously."
Jiang Tang didn't talk to her much and went to the textile factory again without stopping.
When he saw Secretary Xu, he quickly showed him the newspaper's order form: "Secretary Xu, look, this is the newspaper's purchase order. They want 1,000 eggs, 120 kilograms of tofu skin, and 10 chickens.
Our factory has a large number of employees, so the demand for these agricultural products must be quite high. How about purchasing some according to this quantity? " Jiang Tang's words were full of sincerity, and he cleverly used contrast and guidance.
Secretary Xu took the order and discussed it with the purchasing department, and finally ordered 7,000 eggs and 1,200 kilograms of vermicelli.
Jiang Candy was so happy after receiving the order that he almost took off.
But I also know that it is better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality.
She has been thinking about the coal plant and plastic factory that she discussed yesterday.
She took time out in the afternoon to go to these two factories.
In the meeting room of the coal factory, Jiang Tang sincerely told them about the orders she had received from various factories: "The Military Machinery Factory, the Chemical Plant, the newspaper office, and even the textile factory have placed orders for our agricultural products. The workers are actually happy to have some affordable, sustainable, and practical benefits.
Do you think about it too?"
She lobbied in the same way at the plastics factory.
After hearing this, the heads of the two factories did not agree on the spot, but they did not refuse either. They just said that they needed to discuss it before calling her again.
Jiang Tang knew in his heart that this was already a good start.
After a busy day, Meng Si Ning and Jiang Tang returned to their residence in the evening.
As soon as I arrived at their alley, I heard Aunt Zhang and other aunts sitting together, chattering.
"Do you know that Xia Qiu is back and is said to be dating that illegitimate son of Gu Rongchang?" Aunt Zhang said mysteriously.
"And the newly adopted son of the Gu family also came back with his adoptive mother. Ma Meijuan's face was black." Another aunt echoed.
"Suddenly there's an extra son, and everyone is going to be skeptical. I see that Gu Laoji, his adoptive mother is looking around, she's not someone you can easily get rid of."
"Based on age, he should be ranked second."
"Yes, he was with her before he married Ma Meijuan."
"Why did Xia Qiu choose such a complicated family? If they really get married, will life be easy for someone like Ma Meijuan?"
"It's hard to say. With Director Liang here, would Ma Meijuan dare?"
"These are two mothers-in-law."
Jiang Tang subconsciously stopped and a hint of curiosity flashed in her eyes. Just as she was about to move closer to listen, she found that Meng Si Ning just glanced at her lightly and continued walking forward.
Jiang Tang had no choice but to follow and whispered, "Si Ning, it's time for the plot in the book. This is going to be a big drama."
"Anyway, we know the situation. It doesn't matter whether we listen or not. It has nothing to do with us."
“It’s a pity that we have to go back to the oily grass, otherwise we could also eat some melons on the spot.”
"It's just the two of us, a vicious female supporting role and a white moonlight. It's best not to get too close."
"That's true."
