Li Li breathed a sigh of relief, then said firmly, "Zhang Wei must be dealt with! This is embezzlement!"
Wu Changfeng patted Li Li on the shoulder with a smile: "Very good. Qimingxing needs employees with such a strong sense of justice. You'll be a shoo-in for the employee selection next quarter."
Li Li said, "I didn't mean that, I didn't mean to take credit."
"If I didn't know, that's fine," Wu Changfeng said. "If I did know, I'd naturally give you credit. Go back now. I'll handle this matter."
Li Li nodded and left.
Wu Changfeng returned to the workshop and gave the tricycle some more instructions.
They were busy all morning before leaving.
After lunch, Wu Changfeng called Liu Tiao and Wang Chao to his office.
Wu Changfeng sat behind his desk, his arms crossed.
Wang Chao thought it was a meeting, but he didn't expect there to be only three people.
This is???
Willow branches stared at each other, and, knowing there was something to say, finally asked, "If there's nothing else, I'm leaving. I don't have time to waste with you."
Wu Changfeng looked at Wang Chao and tapped the table: "Minister Wang."
"Yes, boss."
"Has one of your employees left the company?"
Wang Chao nodded: "I only found out this morning. I resigned when we went to Shancheng, and my salary hasn't been settled yet."
Wu Changfeng nodded: "The timing of your departure was quite coincidental."
"Huh?" Wang Chao was dumbfounded.
You have a point to make.
Wang Chao then asked, "Boss, is there a problem?"
Wu Changfeng smiled and said, "Minister Wang, are you aware that your subordinates are taking kickbacks outside?"
Liu Tiao was startled and abruptly turned her head to look at Wang Chao.
Is that true?
Wang Chaoteng stood up abruptly: "Boss, who's taking kickbacks? I have strict rules against purchasing staff taking kickbacks! If anyone does, tell me, and I'll beat them to a pulp!"
Wu Changfeng glanced at Wang Chao and told him to sit down first.
"I just want to know if you were involved?"
Wang Chao quickly stated, "Absolutely not! I can accept organizational review and supplier identification; I haven't touched a single drop of oil!"
"All procurement procedures were conducted according to strict standards, and no one was given any personal benefit."
"Of course, if it were just a few packets of tea, I would admit to taking them."
Wu Changfeng waved his hand: "A few packets of tea are nothing. It's harmless. As long as you didn't get involved, it's fine. Otherwise, when the big stick comes down on you, don't blame me for not protecting you."
Wang Chao firmly stated, "The innocent are innocent, and you may investigate me at any time."
Wu Changfeng nodded: "Okay. Let's continue."
"Someone reported that purchasing agent Zhang Wei was involved in corruption, not only driving down purchase prices but also taking a cut."
"Moreover, the company's quoted price is still the market price."
Wu Changfeng then recounted the story of Zhang Wei and Qin Tianhe.
Wang Chao and Liu Tiao exchanged a glance, their hearts pounding with surprise.
If this is proven true, it will be the first corruption case in Qimingxing's history!
Wang Chao asked, "Is the evidence conclusive?"
Wu Changfeng nodded: "I have already met with the person involved."
Wang Chao slammed his hand on the table: "A parasite! What a pity, this guy ran away too fast!"
"And Qin Tianhe's supplier, they're in the same boat too!"
Wu Changfeng waved his hand: "Let's not talk about Qin Tianhe for now. Let's think about how to handle this matter."
Wang Chao shouted, "This is under the department's jurisdiction, and I bear primary responsibility. Secondly, we need to catch Zhang Wei, make him return all the embezzled funds, and then send him to jail! Let's send a warning to the purchasing department!"
"This serves as a wake-up call for purchasing staff. They must uphold professional ethics. Anyone who dares to take kickbacks should be reminded of Zhang Wei's example!"
Wu Changfeng looked at the willow branches: "What do you mean?"
Willow's attitude was completely different. She said, "There are only two choices: first, call the police and have them arrested."
"Second, try to settle things peacefully."
Wang Chao looked at Liu Tiao strangely: "How can there be a second one? This doesn't make sense. If the whole company knows that Zhang Wei made a mistake and got away with it, wouldn't everyone be eager to try it?"
Willow Branch said coldly, "Minister Wang, Zhang Wei is just an isolated case, and it happened in your department. To put it bluntly, it's a dereliction of duty on your part as a leader. Do you admit it?"
Wang Chao sighed and lowered his head: "Indeed, I admit it."
Willow reiterated, "This situation hasn't occurred in other departments, which indicates that kickbacks are not widespread."
"It's not a common occurrence, so there's no need to make everyone panic and let everyone know about it."
Wang Chao strongly disagreed with Liu Tiao's approach: "Our purchasing department is too special; it's the department that spends money. It wouldn't be good if we made a lot of noise but didn't actually do anything."
Willow Twig tossed her hair: "Excuse me, is it easier for the cafeteria cook to steal some oil, or for the purchasing agent to take kickbacks?"
Wang Chao thought for a moment: "It's easier to steal oil."
Liu Tiao waved his hand: "But I have never seen anyone steal oil. No one in the logistics department has ever stolen anything. Whether it's because they manage it well or they just didn't think of it."
"In short, your high-profile actions can easily incite other people's desire to steal."
Wu Changfeng smiled and asked Liu Tiao, "So?"
Willow said, "Let's settle this peacefully."
Wu Changfeng laughed heartily: "President Liu, you've become cunning."
Willow was taken aback. Had she been seen through?
Wu Changfeng continued, "Stop trying to cover it up. Your attempt to appease us is completely untenable. Tell me your true thoughts."
Wang Chao: ? ? ?
wicker:……
I knew I'd seen through it!
