Chapter 263 Liang Xiulan’s factory was closed down
As the saying goes, good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes singly.
That afternoon, Liang Xiulan was leading the newly organized inspection team and telling them the inspection standards and content.
Liu Guizhi ran over in a panic.
"Xiu Lan, something bad has happened. A group of people came to the office and said they want to close the factory."
Liang Xiulan was shocked: "Who is he? Why did he get the title?"
"They said it was from some regulatory agency. Someone reported that there was something wrong with our seasoning."
Liang Xiulan didn't have time to say anything more and hurried to the office.
There were five people in total, three of them were sitting on the sofa, and the other two were sitting on office chairs.
One of them was holding a cigarette in his hand, not caring at all that there was a child in the room.
"No fly bites an egg that's not cracked. Since someone reported it, it means there's something wrong with your factory. If there's no problem, why would someone report it?"
Liang Xiulan, holding her child, argued, "If there's a problem, just tell us what it is. Tell us exactly what the problem is, and we'll fix it. Why shut down the factory right away?"
"Oh! What if you guys sell things outside without sealing it off? They must seal it off first and then inspect it. You little girl, even though you're young, you're quite capable, but you don't know the rules."
Liang Xiujuan received five people's cold stares.
Just as she was about to retort, Liang Xiulan came in.
"Which department are you from?"
She smiled politely.
When these people saw her, they raised their eyebrows and showed abnormal smiles on their faces.
One of them flicked off his cigarette ash and said, "We're from the food safety regulatory department. Someone reported that there's a problem with your food, and we're here to shut it down."
It is not a good intention to seal up the place right away.
But she remained calm and polite: "Then may I ask what went wrong in our factory? What exactly is the problem?"
"Just say the food in your factory is not clean and I got sick from eating it."
Liang Xiulan picked up the teacup and poured tea for everyone. "Then, do you have any relevant reports and certificates?"
"Being in the hospital is the best proof."
"Is there no proper documentation to prove that the other person was hospitalized because of something I ate?"
When she asked this, the five people were all stunned for a moment.
Suddenly, someone slapped the table, his tone casual but with a hint of strength.
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Since they've reported it to our food regulator, we have to take action!"
"We told you there's something wrong with your product and we told you to stop production and rectify it. You have to stop now! We'll restart production when the rectification is satisfactory to us!"
As he spoke, he took out his work ID from his pocket and slammed it on the table.
Liang Xiulan glanced at the work ID and it didn't look fake.
But she couldn't just take the blame for the problem with the seasoning and the upset stomach.
If it's hers, she'll recognize it. If it's not hers, she won't recognize it!
"Can you take me to see the guy who's in the hospital with a stomachache? He got sick from eating food from my factory, so I have to compensate him."
Seeing her good attitude, the others immediately became friendly.
"You're quite sensible."
But they didn't continue talking, nor did they plan to take Liang Xiulan to visit the patient.
They all sat there, some drinking tea, some smoking.
Liang Xiulan pulled Liang Xiujuan over and whispered a few words in her ear. Liang Xiujuan then quickly walked out.
After a while, she came back with five packs of cigarettes.
Liang Xiulan took the cigarettes and distributed them to the five people with a smile.
"My factory has only been open for a short time, and I haven't been able to take care of many details. I'm really sorry to bother you all to make this special trip for me."
Several people took the cigarettes with a smile and put them in their arms.
A slightly fatter person's expression immediately softened.
"Well...it's not easy for a little girl like you to run such a big factory. We all understand."
"There are just too many procedures in the food industry. Tomorrow, take your business license to the Food and Drug Administration and go through the procedures again."
Liang Xiulan was filled with surprise: "That's it?"
"What's the procedure?"
"It's just a review of your business license and health permit, nothing else."
"And the patient?"
"Well... he just had diarrhea. He got an IV drip at the hospital outpatient department and then went home."
Thanks to these cigarettes, Liang Xiulan finally felt relieved and breathed a sigh of relief.
She nodded and bowed to them: "Thank you for your advice."
Several people stood up and waved with a smile.
"These are just small things, there's nothing to thank me for."
"However, the factory still has to be closed and the machines still have to be stopped until the procedure is completed."
As they spoke, they walked out of the office and headed towards the workshop.
Liang Xiulan followed closely behind and signaled all employees to stop the machines.
They walked around the factory, making sure all the machines had stopped, before taking out a piece of paper from a folder.
It says a notice of discontinuation of production.
It was posted at the gate of Liang Xiulan's factory.
After doing this, they all waved to Liang Xiulan in a friendly manner: "Okay, we're leaving now. Director Liang, please hurry up and make corrections. We won't bother you anymore."
Liang Xiulan forced a smile, waved to them, and sent these plague gods away.
As soon as they left, Liu Guizhi came over quickly, holding the child in her arms: "What did you say?"
Liang Xiulan said listlessly: "We still have to stop!"
“We have to follow the procedures.”
"What procedures are we following?"
"Certificate review, business license and health permit."
She returned to the office with a sullen face, took the business license and health permit, picked up the car keys and left.
She had indeed neglected food safety during this period, and this must be strictly enforced at all times in the future.
Ride a tricycle to the regulatory bureau and find relevant staff to understand the situation.
The other party didn't even look at her, and said, "Please provide your raw material procurement channels, production process, production records and inventory status."
Liang Xiulan explained: "My materials are..."
Before she could finish her words, the man interrupted her: "I need written materials. Oral instructions won't work. Go back and prepare them."
After saying that, he stood up and left his seat with the teacup in hand.
Liang Xiulan was filled with frustration and had no choice but to take her things back and prepare the materials.
When she returned, all the employees in the factory had left.
Since production had stopped and there was no use for them here, Liang Xiujuan asked them to go home first.
Seeing Liang Xiulan coming back unhappy, Liang Xiujuan knew that it must not have been done.
Liu Guizhi came over and asked, "What's going on?"
Liang Xiulan said, "They want the raw material procurement channels, production process, production records and inventory status. It must be in written form."
"What in writing? On paper?"
Liang Xiulan leaned weakly on the table and waved her hand: "Don't worry about it, you and Xiujuan go back first."
Liu Guizhi was about to say something when Liang Xiujuan pulled her sleeve and said, "Let's go first."
Liang Xiulan is very annoyed now, and if they stay, they will only disturb her.
Liu Guizhi looked at Liang Xiulan worriedly and could only leave with the child in her arms.
Liang Xiujuan followed behind, and the two rode the tricycle home.
