Once on the street, Xu Xiangyang first observed the situation.
It looks like there are quite a few people going to the black market; it's crowded and has a lot of traffic.
Keep in mind that this was right after the holiday and during working hours, yet there were still quite a few people.
However, Xu Xiangyang also noticed something else: people were still going to Mr. Kong's territory.
He took a look and found that none of the products being sold were local.
Thinking back to their previous conversation, and the conversation I overheard between Zhou Tianyi and Cao Yajun a few days ago.
Xu Xiangyang suddenly realized that Zhou Tianyi had extended his business here.
I just don't know how this person manages to produce so much stuff.
Even smuggling requires connections; this guy really knows how to pull off something.
He looked around and then left.
Anyway, as long as Kong Deyu doesn't sneak around causing trouble for him, everyone can just focus on their careers.
If you come here to show off and cause trouble, then I'm sorry, I'll make you work for nothing for the past ten years!
In fact, Xu Xiangyang did not want to physically harm people, because sometimes, destroying people is not the only solution.
Look at all the things they took away before; it's like Kong Deyu worked for nothing for several years.
Isn't this better?
It's effortless and hassle-free, yet you get so many things—it's the best of both worlds!
Most importantly, Kong Deyu still doesn't know who's behind this, which makes him feel very comfortable.
July arrived in the blink of an eye, and both the garment factory and the black market operated smoothly throughout the month.
The autumn clothing production has already begun, and the purchasing department is handling the fabric selection, so he doesn't have to worry about anything.
Xu Xiangyang felt that now that the factory was gradually getting back on track, he was starting to relax.
However, the investigation team from above has also come down to conduct a mid-year inventory of the accounts of each factory. If any problems are found, then it's all over.
He wasn't too worried about the garment factory. After all, it was just starting out, and they were already able to operate independently. As their finances gradually improved, they began to make a profit.
In situations like this, it's usually the second day after a factory is built that you see profits, but they're already doing very well in less than a year.
It can be said that it was very good, and it didn't cause the leaders any worry.
However, this matter still needs the leader's approval. If he thinks it's okay, then that's his opinion.
"Director Xu." Guan Qilin hurriedly opened the door to his office and walked in, asking excitedly, "Have you heard? The higher-ups are coming to inspect our factory too."
This kind of thing usually involves inspecting large factories. For example, there are two steel mills in Xincheng, but the main ones are in the first factory. If it weren't for the orders that the first factory didn't want, the second factory would probably have fallen through long ago.
Therefore, when leaders come to inspect, they always check the large factories.
Their garment factory was just starting out, and everyone knew that new factories weren't easy to come by, so they hadn't even considered doing it in the first place.
But this time, when Xu Xiangyang found out, he felt only a little surprised, and no other emotions.
He turned to the factory director and said, "Director Guan, have the accountant tally up this month's accounts. The leaders are coming to check anyway, so one more month won't make a difference, it's almost the end of the month."
This is usually settled two days in advance at the end of the month, but since the leaders are here, we need to make sure they understand, right? Settling in advance is acceptable.
“Okay, I’ll talk to them about it.” Guan Qilin nodded upon hearing this.
However, he seemed to remember something and tentatively asked, "Director Xu, we haven't found the fabric we lost last time. Should we write that down?"
Actually, he didn't want to remember it. After all, the leaders' arrival was already quite sudden. It would be so embarrassing if people found out that they had lost fabric right after starting work.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at him and said, "Director Guan, you're usually so cautious, how come you start to get confused when it comes to important matters?"
This is nothing short of foolish; how could someone say something like that?
"What's wrong?" Guan Qilin asked, puzzled, not knowing what he had said wrong.
So, is it good to let the boss know about these bad things?
Xu Xiangyang stood up, walked to his side, and said softly, "This can't be kept secret. Do you think the leaders are all fools? They'll have to go back and review the details again."
If we're lucky and they don't investigate, then everything's fine. But if they do investigate, and we cover up even this small thing, what will the leaders think of us?
His meaning was clear: don't lose sight of the big picture!
Guan Qilin realized what he meant when he heard his words.
If the leaders find out, they'll be in deep trouble.
Besides, everyone in the factory knows about this; if anyone says a word more or less, it will be known.
Seeing his suddenly enlightened expression, Xu Xiangyang continued, "Director Guan, our factory has only been open for a few months, so it's normal for problems to arise. Don't strive for perfection; that's more tiring."
This applies to everything; striving for perfection will only backfire.
Guan Qilin looked somewhat ashamed. He had prided himself on being very thorough in his thinking, but now that the problem was so obvious, he couldn't see it and had to ask someone to remind him.
"Director Xu, thank goodness I discussed this with you. I'll go talk to the finance department right away." He said and left quickly.
This matter cannot be delayed; it needs to be dealt with immediately.
Seeing his hurried manner, Xu Xiangyang didn't say anything. It would still be two or three days before the leaders came to investigate.
Besides, even if they come, this won't be their first stop.
It's possible that this is the last stop; who knows?
In the afternoon, a few people came over to discuss with him how to receive the leaders when they came. This was a specific matter, and everyone even held a meeting to discuss it.
Xu Xiangyang sighed helplessly. It was just a leader coming to inspect; he should just go about his business.
Everyone's so excited about getting married, not to mention the others.
"How about we treat the leaders to a meal in the cafeteria? Chef Sun's cooking is quite good," Director Chen suggested.
The others didn't really have any objections, since everyone had eaten at state-run restaurants at some point.
Everyone knows how good Chef Sun's cooking is; it's really excellent.
"I have no objection, what about you guys?" Guan Qilin nodded in agreement, then asked the others.
The others had no problem either, and eating in the cafeteria was fine too; it was their own place, so it was easier to entertain them.
"The accounting has already been handled by the finance department." The finance staff also came and explained the situation.
Everyone else also shared the preparations their respective departments had made, just in case they had overlooked anything.
After all, it's leaders from above coming down here; if we don't do well, we'll lose face.
As a member of the garment factory, I represent a large family and reflect the image of everyone.
If a problem arises, it is everyone's problem.
As Xu Xiangyang watched them talk, he felt that everyone had done a good job, at least they had thought of all aspects.
I just don't know how long those leaders will stay, or how many people will come. No one has told or notified us in advance about these things.
However, if you go to other places first, you can find out more.
