Chapter 1079: Can't Help
When Wang Yuehua heard her words, she immediately understood what was going on.
"Did the talks go well over there?"
While asking questions, Wang Yuehua took out a tea box from the drawer of her desk and wanted to add more tea leaves to make tea for Lu Miao.
Lu Miaoxu stopped him and said:
"Don't bother with that. Clean water will quench your thirst better."
Then he nodded and said:
"What I meant is that we should all encourage each other in this critical moment, but the situation over there is really a bit hopeless..."
Lu Miao did not elaborate on how he failed to help the woman, but Wang Yuehua could guess a little bit.
Wang Yuehua sat down with Lu Miao and talked, smiling and comforting him:
"It's not their fault, actually. They're right to have concerns. Director, you don't have to worry about it. It doesn't matter who we choose the materials from. Now that both of our families are facing difficulties, I'd like to give priority to the cotton mill. It's also my humble contribution."
Lu Miao had his eyes closed and was rubbing his forehead, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but put down his hands and look at Wang Yuehua.
Who says women are inferior to men?
She wanted to say that Wang Yuehua's way of dealing with people and her vision were many times better than that of Director Wu.
Director Wu is short-sighted, only looking at the present, and is stubborn and conservative. Even with Lu Miao's intervention, the cotton mill will not last long in the future.
But just hold on as long as you can!
After all, the real wave of layoffs has not yet come.
If a large number of factory workers were laid off starting at this time, it would also be a problem for urban development.
Lu Miao patted Wang Yuehua helplessly, and showed his sincerity in front of the sincere people:
"The director of the cotton mill has done a poor job, but if the workers there knew about these things, they would definitely be grateful to you."
"You're too kind."
Wang Yuehua said with a smile, and then asked:
"The factory has already produced the blueprints for the drawings you brought last time, and several craftsmen are working on cutting them. Would you like to come over and take a look?"
Lu Miao drank the tea in the cup, put it down and stood up and said:
"Yes."
Garment factories are different from ordinary sewing factories.
It has a more mature assembly line from drawing, pattern making, cutting to processing into ready-made garments.
Lu Miao previously provided several drawings, and feedback was given quickly.
Lu Miao went into the workshop with Wang Yuehua to check the progress.
During the subsequent adjustments and production, Lu Miao participated in it most of the time and gave timely suggestions.
The cutting and materials for this issue's clothing, as well as the small-scale production of more than a dozen styles, each with nearly a hundred sets, were mostly taken from the Shuguang Cotton Mill.
It cannot be said that it has contributed much revenue to the cotton mill, but it has definitely covered the employee expenses in recent months.
All the links are proceeding in an orderly manner, but there is still a gap...
Just a little bit more.
Lu Miao took some time to visit several larger department stores in northern Beijing. It was during this period that he received a call from Minister Zhan.
The Canton Fair in Guangzhou will be held in half a month, and this group of people have to go there in advance.
Minister Zhan reminded her to arrange her time properly.
Lu Miao responded, time was very tight, and he didn't dare to rest during the National Day holiday in the next few days.
If you can purchase it yourself, do so. If the journey is too far and you cannot take care of it, you can only arrange for someone you trust to do it.
The first person Lu Miao thought of was Chen Xiangdong.
But just when she was about to look for someone, Chen Xiangdong drove up to her house first.
The car landed in the factory yard. Chen Xiangdong drove it around twice to get familiar with it, and then he came to Lu Miao as soon as possible.
One was to deliver the mannequin that Lu Miao had requested previously.
The second is to provide some feedback.
These are the chemical ingredients that Lu Miao needs to process cochineal powder.
Although there are no clear control instructions in the market now, if you want to buy those things, you must have a certificate from a hospital or relevant factory.
Chen Xiangdong tried many methods and got some acetic acid sporadically, but he really couldn't get the other two, acetic anhydride and triethylamine.
When telling Lu Miao these things, Chen Xiangdong thought:
"This thing is so difficult to make. Is there any danger? If it is really dangerous, we can find someone else to do it. Shouldn't we do it?"
Purified chemicals will definitely have some impact on the human body.
But the problem is that the country currently does not have the scale to breed cochineal, let alone an institution to convert cochineal components.
Lu Miao originally wanted to solve it herself, but Chen Xiangdong's words reminded her.
Although there is an independent craft room, some chemicals are soluble in water and some are soluble in air, and they will spread quickly.
With so many children at home, it's really not suitable for her to figure out how to take care of everything by herself...
Lu Miao's brain was working fast, and he soon had another idea in his mind.
She made tea and poured water for Chen Xiangdong, and said:
"Let's put this aside for now. I have something more urgent that I need you to run an errand for me."
"Hmm? What do you mean?"
Lu Miao was just about to go out to look for him, and had prepared all the things, but he didn't expect him to come first.
While speaking, Lu Miao put down the teapot, opened the handbag on one side and took out the notebook.
She tore off a page of paper, copied a few words from a page in the small notebook, and handed it to Chen Xiangdong:
"I need something. You have to go to this place to find it. I've written down the requirements."
Chen Xiangdong took it and looked at it. The next second, he raised his eyebrows in surprise and asked:
"Wuxi Taihu Lake?"
Lu Miao nodded: "The Canton Fair opens on the 16th. I'm going there early this time and will leave on the 12th. You need to be back before the 10th at the latest."
"So anxious!?"
The trains to small places in the south are not like those to big cities, with only a few or more than ten trains a day.
If you want to get back on time, it basically means you have to set off right now.
"yes."
Lu Miao nodded firmly, and then said:
"You're unfamiliar with the area. To ensure the safety of your property and yourself, don't go alone. It's best to call one or two trusted friends to come along."
Chen Xiangdong nodded, and he had a rough idea in his mind:
"I'll take Dandan with me. He's been talking about resigning these days."
Dandan was just a child in the past.
After two years of hard work, he has grown into a strong and young man.
In the past, Chen Xiangdong always treated him like a younger brother. Lu Miao had a strong impression of this, so he asked:
"Why do you want to resign all of a sudden?"
Chen Xiangdong shook his head. "Brother Xiao Fu used to work at the electromechanical factory. You know the situation there. Things have been even worse this year, especially in the past few months... And then I heard that Brother Xiao Fu wants to run his own factory. Dandan said he doesn't want to work there anymore and wants to come back and work with Brother Xiao Fu."
As he spoke, Chen Xiangdong tried to probe in a subtle way:
"I haven't mentioned these things to Brother Xiao Fu yet. I wonder if Brother Xiao Fu is willing to take the eggs?"
Lu Miao shook his head and laughed:
"What are you talking about? He just needs trustworthy people after taking over the factory. Don't worry about this. I'll talk to him in person later."
Hearing this, Chen Xiangdong also laughed out loud:
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
