Chapter 166 Sue Them
After Xia Keqing left with more than 80,000 pieces of goods, Yuxia Garment Factory finally resumed normal production and sales, and Zhang Xia felt relieved.
But because there was so much shortage of goods, the factory had to start working overtime to produce.
Zhang Xia is now facing pressure from all sides.
First of all, there was pressure from her father and husband.
Especially the husband.
After all, the interests of husband and wife are one.
"How did you let her take away so much goods? Do you have any brains?"
"How much would that much stuff cost?"
Zhang Xia also had a gloomy face. She had only slept for a few hours every night for several days.
The factory needs to increase its production capacity, but it cannot add more production lines in a short period of time. However, with so much goods to be delivered, it can only require that the original production lines continue to remain open. Workers cannot work overtime for free. If they do, no one would be willing to do it.
If the workers go on strike, her losses will only be greater.
There is no choice but to pay the workers overtime wages.
Now Zhang Xia no longer thinks about how much overtime pay is.
Compared with the failure to deliver the goods, this overtime pay is nothing.
However, Zhang Xia’s husband could not understand.
So he took the opportunity to attack Zhang Xia.
Zhang Xia was so annoyed that her head was buzzing.
She scratched her hair, looking haggard and embarrassed, and said weakly: "Then tell me, what should I do?"
"She gave us the design drawings for free on a condition that we would be given priority in supplying her, but we couldn't do that."
"If you can't do it, you have to give in."
"You also know how much of a loss it would be to give away so much goods for free, so am I not also thinking about our factory?"
Zhang Xia’s husband was stunned. “Did you sign a contract with her?”
Zhang Xia frowned, "What else?"
"Don't look at the young girl, she's not stupid, right?"
"She's a college student. Don't be fooled by her young age. She's very smart!"
Zhang Xia’s husband was suddenly speechless. He thought Xia Keqing looked young and might be naive.
I didn't expect this little girl to be so smart.
If you mess up something after signing a contract, you might end up in jail.
Zhang Xia’s husband is greedy for money, but he doesn’t dare to do anything reckless.
"Then you can't let her take all the goods away. How much money will that cost?"
Zhang Xia gets angry when she talks about this. But think about it, after all, those more than 70,000 pieces were sold at wholesale prices.
As long as she sells it at the wholesale price, it’s the same as selling it to others, so she will make a profit.
But Zhang Xia still kept a secret from her husband and did not tell him that 70,000 of the items were bought with money.
Seeing that he had not gotten anything from his wife, Zhang Xia's husband brought up the issue of workers' wages. "Our factory already pays such high wages, and you are still paying such high overtime wages. Who are you pampering?"
Zhang Xia covered her forehead with her hands. "If you don't get overtime pay, are you willing to work day and night like this?"
"Who will work for you? You are the one doing all the work?"
Zhang Xia’s husband was speechless again.
Zhang Xia couldn't help but said, "Alright, alright, don't show up in front of me if you have nothing to do. Do you think I'm not in a hurry?"
"I haven't slept much in the past few days. Don't mess with me unless you don't want me to be well!"
"You've never managed the factory before, so just stop caring about it!"
Zhang Xia's husband was very uncomfortable with this. "What do you mean I didn't take care of it? Didn't you count on me for your pregnancy and childbirth, and for things at the factory?"
Zhang Xia: "Okay, okay, why are you telling me this now?"
"Do you think I don't know what you and Dad did in the factory?"
"It's been so long since the incident happened. We are all family. I don't want to argue with you anymore, but that doesn't mean I don't know anything."
When Zhang Xia’s husband heard this, his eyes flickered and he finally calmed down.
Within two days, Zhang Xia's father also started to make trouble.
"If you can't manage the factory well, let me, the boss, take over."
Zhang Xia: …
"Okay, Dad, don't get involved in this matter. How old are you? How long has it been since you last worked in a factory?"
Zhang Xia's father was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "I am old, but don't I still have your brother? Your brother is not an outsider."
"During the time when you were giving birth, Wu Guifu did all those things. If it weren't for me and your brother, he would have ruined the factory!"
Wu Guifu is Zhang Xia’s husband.
Zhang Xia had a splitting headache.
When she had no money, she had a good relationship with her family and husband.
She didn't know why it turned out like this.
Maybe this is human nature.
But human nature often cannot withstand the test of interests.
Her parents and husband are like this, isn't she the same?
Her husband was selfish and had affairs behind her back, and her father and brother were no exception.
"Okay, the factory has been very busy recently. Something did happen, but I've already solved it. Don't worry about it. I also know about my brother's situation. Don't worry, I'll make arrangements."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Yuxia Garment Factory worked non-stop during this period, paying workers high overtime wages and making them work overtime, and finally managed to finish this batch of goods before the delivery date.
And it was shipped out smoothly.
Before Zhang Xia had time to breathe a sigh of relief, something happened again.
"The payment hasn't been received yet?"
The accountant looked unhappy. "Yes, our people have urged us many times."
Just then, the phone in Zhang Xia's office rang.
Zhang Xia picked up the phone subconsciously, and her brows furrowed further and further.
"trademark?"
"Boss Chi, this trademark used to be..."
Zhang Xia never imagined that the products she produced after working overtime would be rejected by the other party because they did not have the "KQ" trademark.
She just couldn't understand it. Isn't it just a trademark?
Isn’t it that the reason why products sell well is because of their good designs and high quality?
Does it have anything to do with trademarks?
At this time, Zhang Xia still didn't understand the meaning of the brand.
But is she willing to see the products she has worked so hard to produce returned, and all the costs simply sunk?
That is absolutely impossible, she will definitely try every possible way to recover the losses.
"Okay, yes, I understand."
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Xia made a decision immediately.
…
At this time, Xia Keqing, who was far away in H City, the capital of Jiang Province, received a call from Shenzhen City.
The content of the phone call made Xia Keqing's lips curl up slightly.
"Got it. We will sue them according to the normal procedures."
She really didn't know whether to say that Zhang Xia was courageous or stupid?
She actually continued to embroider her trademark on the products after terminating the contract, which constituted infringement.
Of course, that depends on Xia Keqing's attitude.
Of course it's okay if she doesn't pursue it.
But didn't she spend money to register a trademark just to protect her own legal interests?
When the contract was terminated, Zhang Xia pleaded with Xia Keqing, hoping that she could produce the clothes she designed one last time to fulfill the previous orders.
Xia Keqing agreed.
In other words, if Yuxia Garment Factory continues to produce clothes designed by her without authorization, it will still constitute infringement.
Even if Xia Keqing cares about it, the factory that makes imitations of Yuxia Garment Factory can also be held legally responsible.
Of course Xia Keqing must investigate and not encourage such illegal behavior.
Of course, she also has to thank Yuxia Garment Factory for making her brand famous. When she sets up her own factory later, she just needs to let people know that these are genuine KQ products.
