Chapter 97 Taking Advantage of Others Through Deception



"Hey, so you know how to think about the factory? If you do, why are you making so many quality control calculators?" Factory Director Li shouted.

"I already instructed my two deputies about this before I left. If there are quality problems with the boards from the supplier, I asked them to notify the purchasing department and the manufacturer. Now more and more boards are breaking, and no one is taking this seriously. What does that say?" Xing Baohua said, trying to get rid of the reason first.

"We've communicated with the purchasing department and the manufacturer; there are no quality issues with the boards," said Factory Manager Li.

“I’ve already had Liu Quan write the data report. There’s nothing wrong with the production process. Like I said, the problem lies with the manufacturer’s boards. I’ve identified a few issues today, and the report is ready. You’ll see it later,” Xing Baohua said.

This kind of blame-shifting when problems arise is common, but pushing the blame onto the production line is going too far. Using infighting as a waste of resources! Whose resources are these? Since they're not ours, using them as weapons isn't unreasonable.

Factory Director Li really didn't know what to say about Xing Baohua; he was spoiling him rotten.

Xing Baohua knew that some of the trouble stemmed from him, but there was nothing he could do; everywhere was a place of intrigue, big or small. With so many people, there was bound to be trouble—that's how it all started.

In order to get the factory's support and to be able to go out and have fun—no, to run business—Xing Baohua had no choice but to take out that watch.

Fortunately, Guo Hongxia was able to depict some of the appearance based on his sketch. Professional painting is different; it's direct and insightful.

There are drafts and samples.

He laid it out on Director Li's desk and explained that he had been out looking for a watch so that the factory could start another project. The watch was an imported Casio that cost a lot of money, and the factory would reimburse him.

As for the drawings, they were also commissioned to be done by artisans. These kinds of drawings are not only time-consuming but also labor-intensive, as they need to be drawn in great detail. The daily wage is twenty yuan, and that's a friendly price obtained through connections.

Xing Baohua has to spout nonsense, otherwise he won't be able to fool anyone! This was just a side effect he came up with on a whim, not something he specifically developed.

Factory Director Li was very pleased and said that the factory would reimburse his expenses, and he could just get the receipts himself. He would reimburse the travel expenses, accommodation, and so on. He would receive a allowance for the days he was away from the factory, as if he were on a business trip.

Xing Baohua hadn't expected to swindle such a small amount of money, but even a small amount adds up! He was short of cash right now. This one scam had cost him several hundred yuan!

No wonder everyone loves business trips! It's such a lucrative side hustle.

The factory manager was very satisfied with the appearance of the electronic watch and told Xing Baohua, "You should focus all your energy on research and development now. I'll call Lao Shen in a bit. Ask him for anything you need and make sure it's produced as soon as possible."

"Okay, factory manager. But the watches our factory produces aren't very good, are they?"

"Who cares? A machine factory is still a factory. It can produce precision items, and a small watch is no problem for it. It can't be that producing clocks is more in line with the reputation of a machine factory," said Factory Director Li.

Well, if we're talking about someone who's good at going off the beaten path and neglecting their duties, Factory Manager Li is just as good!

Selling audio equipment to make movies, selling mechanical equipment to manufacture watches. It's quite interesting to think about.

As Xing Baohua came out of the factory director's office, he saw Su Ya waiting for him downstairs. If it weren't for the inconvenient location, Xing Baohua estimated that the little girl would have jumped right into his arms.

Seeing that Su Ya looked like she was about to cry, Xing Baohua stepped forward and said to her, "You look like a clown. Did you miss me?"

The question, asked knowingly, brought tears to Su Ya's eyes. She lightly tapped his arm and said, "You didn't even tell me where you were going. If my cousin hadn't told me you were in the provincial capital, I would have thought you had disappeared."

"I am indeed busy! Didn't I tell you before that I might be too busy to date these past two years? I'll find a chance to make it up to you," Xing Baohua said.

"No, will you be in the factory or going out later?" Su Ya asked.

Xing Baohua had wanted to spend some time with this girl before.

"I'm going to the repair shop. Come find me after you get off work, and we'll have dinner together tonight," Xing Baohua said, and Su Ya nodded with a smile.

Xing Baohua told Su Ya to go back to work first, while he went to the repair shop to install the parts he bought from Zhang Xuebao into the computer.

When they arrived at the repair shop, they didn't see Niu Jishan. They asked the relative who was minding the shop, and Niu Jishan said he had gone to the electronics factory.

Xing Baohua's lack of interest in her relatives is essentially a repeat of her past self.

She's not enthusiastic about learning anything; she just likes to play. At first, she could control herself, but now she's completely let loose.

If someone is truly interested in learning something, Xing Baohua is willing to teach them or have someone teach them. Unfortunately, he doesn't care about the practical aspects of the job and can only order people around.

Ignore him, it's no use talking to him. He can support himself with a temporary job, and he doesn't have any ambitions.

The computer that was previously assembled and repaired now has a wooden exterior and has been coated with clear varnish, making it look very bright.

After installing the additional accessories, Xing Baohua powered on the machine for testing.

That's how you make a perfect computer.

Xing Baohua was very satisfied with the test results, and this computer was put into use in the electronics factory. The other one was placed in the publishing house as a carrier for an analog sound card.

The sound card still needs to be made.
