Lu Fan needs Zhou Huan to provide specific merchant information:
“We will not accept the price increase. We have given them an ultimatum: if they cannot deliver the goods according to the agreed delivery time in the contract, we will file a lawsuit.”
"Remember to talk to the legal department. These people are just waiting for their tail to fall; they think our company is easy to bully."
Not long after Lu Fan and Zhou Huan finished speaking, Wang Wei arrived with Xiao Liang. After introducing themselves...
Xiao Liang then explained the purpose of his visit.
He formally explained to Lu Fan the matters that Director Hong and Director Wang had entrusted to him:
"The two leaders dismissed Director Zhao Jinshui's suggestion from Shengjing Company, but still instructed me to come and explain the situation, lest outsiders spread the word and cause countless misunderstandings."
No wonder he came from the Grain Bureau; he speaks and acts just like his superiors, as slippery as an eel.
Lu Fan inwardly complained, but still smiled and asked, "Okay, you've delivered the message, so I can rest assured."
"But I think you came here today for more than just to deliver a message, right?"
Xiao Liang smiled and said, "Indeed, there is another matter that I must discuss with President Lu in person."
The Grain Bureau wants to increase its cooperation with Lu's Soy Sauce Factory.
But they were also worried that this was just their own one-sided effort, and they needed Lu Fan's confirmation before it would count.
Both Lu Fan and Wang Wei were somewhat surprised to hear Xiao Liang's words.
After all, Zhou Huan had just mentioned in the meeting that several manufacturers were trying to extort money and raise prices.
Turning around, the Grain Bureau actually wants to increase cooperation with them?
However, this is a good thing for both their company and the grain bureau.
However, there are some things that Lu Fan cannot pretend to be ignorant about.
Cooperation is possible, but there are some things Lu Fan needs to say upfront:
"I think that after Zhao Jinshui's instigation, your grain bureau should have heard some rumors as well."
"Our Lu's Food Factory has indeed been targeted by multinational corporations like Shengjing Company."
"This kind of confrontation has happened more than once or twice. Shengjing is not only targeting Lu's group on its own, but also joining forces with some companies and merchants to besiege Lu's group."
"I would like to ask your grain bureau, at this time, why are you increasing cooperation efforts? Have you not considered this aspect?"
Xiao Liang waved his hand dismissively:
"Oh, I thought you were going to talk about something else, Mr. Lu. Oh, this is all you've got?"
"In fact, any small business would have many concerns and would want to be more cautious and observe the situation carefully."
Lu Fan nodded, signaling Xiao Liang to continue.
Xiao Liang wasn't gloomy either, only talking about the current situation:
"But our Grain Bureau is not some small fry that can be easily manipulated." "Don't even mention the two directors, Hong and Wang, above us. Don't be fooled by their lack of involvement; they're out playing cards all day."
"But when it really comes to trouble, they have plenty of connections and resources."
"There's also the cooperation between the Grain Bureau and Lu's Food Factory, which was spearheaded by the municipal government."
"This kind of cooperation solves both the grain bureau's inventory problem and the municipality's tax problem. It's a win-win situation. How could an outside company possibly interfere or sabotage it?"
"This matter has only been discussed behind closed doors. You haven't put any effort into it at higher levels. Otherwise, how could the municipal government, which is a major taxpayer in Nanshan City, not step in to help you sort things out?"
These words struck a chord with Wang Wei, and she straightened her back, saying with great pride:
“Our CEO Lu has plenty of ways to make Shengjing make them return everything they’ve cheated us out of.”
"Director Liang, just you wait and see. Our food factory will make Shengjing Company suffer the most, and they'll end up shooting themselves in the foot!"
Wang Wei finished making her harsh remarks.
Lu Fan also gave this a lot of thought: "On this point, I can only say that I admire the courage and boldness of the two leaders even more."
"I also appreciate my partner's intelligence and loyalty, so I wouldn't mind extending the cooperation period and purchasing volume by 443 years."
So the "three-year cooperation" goal that Xiao Liang brought before his arrival was transformed into a brand new eight-year contract, and a supply volume that was ten times greater than it is now.
This unexpected windfall really knocked Xiao Liang senseless.
Even Shengjing Company didn't offer such favorable cooperation terms.
Xiao Liang inquired further before finding out the truth.
It turns out that although Lu's Food Factory has faced some setbacks recently, its performance is still booming.
Not to mention that several new production lines have been added in just a few months, even the existing factory is almost unable to meet the ever-increasing shipment volume.
Wang Wei smiled and smoothed her long hair: "We've already been looking for land in the next city to build a factory."
This is a sales volume that even the original soy sauce factory had not achieved, but Lu Fan did it.
The cooperation with the Grain Bureau went smoothly.
However, Zhou Huan's supply chain crisis has not yet been resolved.
