"Then we removed the fuel tank cap to clean it, and after installation we found that the large sealing ring was broken, so we replaced it with a sealing ring from the warehouse."
After listening, Mine Manager Huo asked, "Didn't you use the original sealing ring?"
"That has to be imported! How can we wait for the parts to be shipped over oceans?"
Mine Manager Huo nodded: "Get to work."
Director Huo knew without even thinking where the colloidal particles came from.
It must be that the newly replaced seal melted and decomposed due to the increased oil temperature.
Although there was no large-scale oil leak, oil seepage was certain.
Director Huo was speechless. He never expected that the root of the problem would come from a substandard sealing ring!
"I remember the purchasing department bought a lot of sealing rings, I think they were from Qingzhou Rubber Factory."
"By the way, the hydraulic supports at the coal face are also constantly leaking oil, and it's been happening more frequently lately."
"If it weren't for the tunneling machine problem that covered up the coal face issue, I would have almost forgotten about it!"
Wu Changfeng immediately replied, "Chief Mine Manager, this batch of sealing rings is substandard. What are your plans to do with it?"
After thinking for a moment, Director Huo said, "Fire the purchasing agent first, then offset it with the consumables accounts."
Wu Changfeng rubbed his hands together, realizing that it was pretty much what he had expected.
Linxi Coal Mine would rather suffer losses than cause trouble for Qingzhou Rubber Factory.
Return it? Don't be ridiculous.
In this day and age, there's no such thing as returning goods; you just have to accept your bad luck.
After all, we're all state-owned enterprises, we're all one family, so we can just punish ourselves with three drinks and call it a day.
Moreover, Qingzhou Rubber Factory had an even bigger reputation.
The small Linxi Coal Mine dared not challenge the Qingzhou Rubber Factory on quality issues.
Wu Changfeng chuckled and said, "Could you give me the scrap metal? You don't need it anyway, and you wouldn't dare use it anymore."
"Hmm?" Mine Manager Huo asked in confusion, "You want to become a middleman? Isn't that cheating others?"
"No, I want to melt it down and make some handicrafts."
Wu Changfeng lies without batting an eye.
"Alright then, I'll give you a slip to take it once you get up there."
All done!
The remaining funding gap has been filled!
