Jiang Zhiwei quickly hid, keeping her eyes fixed on the two of them.
However, she was some distance away, and there was a lot of background noise in the venue, so she couldn't hear what the two were saying; she could only see their movements.
Lu Guojian handed Yu Yao a bag, saying, "These are clothes your sister-in-law bought for you, but she forgot to give them to you."
"The clothes my sister-in-law bought must be beautiful."
Yu Yao took it with delight and took out a floral print dress from it.
The white skirt features large, bright blue and white floral patterns, and the large skirt hem gives it a youthful and flowing feel, making it a rare and beautiful piece for this era.
Yu Yao liked it very much. "Big brother, please thank your wife for me. This dress is so beautiful, I really like it."
"Your sister-in-law said, whatever you like is fine."
Lu Guojian asked her about her work, and after they talked for a while, they went their separate ways.
After the two left, Jiang Zhiwei emerged from the corner.
Jiang Zhiwei had seen that dress yesterday when she was shopping at the department store. It was a fresh import from the port city and cost several tens of yuan.
This man actually gave Yu Yao such an expensive gift; the two must have a very close relationship.
Considering that the man was an official from the Ministry of Commerce, Jiang Zhiwei seemed to understand something.
No wonder Li Zhaodi reported Yu Yao to the organizing committee for making something in the venue, but the organizing committee did nothing; it turns out there was someone behind it.
Jiang Zhiwei glanced at the camera in her hand, a slight smile playing on her lips. Luckily, she managed to capture that moment.
Yu Yao had better behave herself and not give her a chance to use these leverages against her.
Temporary office location for the finance department.
After the comrades in front of her finished registering the intended transaction amounts for this morning, it was Yu Yao's turn.
The finance department staff were all curious about the results of Yu Yao's canning process. "Comrade Yu, how were the sales figures this morning? Were they effective?"
Yu Yao nodded and told them the sales figures for the two booths that morning.
Upon hearing the number, Accountant Liu and her colleagues couldn't help but stand up from their chairs. "Comrade Yu, did you just say 200,000 in intended transaction amount? We didn't mishear, did we?"
"Accountant Liu, that's indeed the amount." The few merchants brought by Comrade Xiao Zhou alone placed orders worth 150,000, and of the remaining 50,000, more than 20,000 were other merchants who were attracted by the smell.
The remaining transactions were completed at the booth in the aisle.
Jiang Zhiwei was surprised to hear that Yu Yao and the others had actually made so many deals.
"How is this possible? Yu Yao, did you lie about the sales volume to get by?" Even if Yu Yao and her team made canned beef on site, how could they have completed so much in just one morning?
Jiang Zhiwei didn't believe it and raised her own questions.
Accountant Liu and the others paused upon hearing this and looked at Yu Yao.
There have been previous cases where workers, fearing punishment for failing to meet their foreign exchange targets, deliberately misrepresented their intended transaction amounts, later claiming that the customer had cancelled.
If their relationship is messy, even if they make canned goods on the spot, it will be difficult to achieve such a high transaction volume.
"Comrade Yu, I can pretend I didn't hear what you just said. Now, could you please report the transaction amount again?" Accountant Liu was afraid that she would take a wrong turn, so he gave Yu Yao another chance.
Jiang Zhiwei said with dissatisfaction: "Accountant Liu, although Yu Yao is my subordinate, I will not protect her. Since she lied about the transaction amount, she should be reported to the factory and dealt with accordingly. We cannot encourage this kind of bad practice."
“Director Jiang,” Accountant Liu called out sternly to Jiang Zhiwei, “Comrade Yu is young and naive. If she has any problems, instead of helping her more, you take the opportunity to settle personal scores. That’s not right.”
After saying that, she turned to look at Yu Yao, her voice much gentler, "Comrade Yu, don't be afraid. It's true that the factory has set a difficult goal for you, and everyone in the factory knows that. Don't feel pressured, just be realistic."
Yu Yao was very grateful for Accountant Liu's protection. "Accountant Liu, I did not lie about the transaction amount. We did indeed complete a transaction of 200,000 this morning."
Jiang Zhiwei didn't dare to get angry at Accountant Liu, but she didn't take Yu Yao, her subordinate, seriously, especially since she had enough leverage to kill Yu Yao.
“Yu Yao, I see you’re really stubborn and won’t admit your mistakes until you’re faced with the truth. You still dare to lie at a time like this. Accountant Liu, you’ve seen it yourself. It’s not that I’m not giving you face. It’s just that some people simply don’t know how to repent. Such people must be severely punished before they realize their mistakes.”
Yu Yao was truly fed up with Jiang Zhiwei. "Director Jiang, which eye of yours saw me lie? As for the amount you mentioned, if you can't complete it, it only means you're not as skilled as others."
Jiang Zhiwei sneered: "Yu Yao, you're about to die and you're still being stubborn. If I can't finish, it's because I'm not skilled enough. Do you think you can?"
"What would you say if I actually succeeded?"
Jiang Zhiwei snorted, "Yu Yao, two hundred thousand, not twenty thousand. If it were that easy to do, would the new workshop have had zero sales last year?"
Yu Yao interrupted her: "Comrade Jiang, if you're brain-dead, you can donate your brain. I asked what would happen to you if I completed this, not for you to ask me how easy it is."
Just as he finished speaking, a chuckle came from the side; it was a young woman from the finance department.
Accountant Liu pressed his fist against his chin, coughed to remind his colleague next to him, and then said to Yu Yao and Jiang Zhiwei, "You two continue."
Jiang Zhiwei looked embarrassed and put all the blame on Yu Yao.
Yu Yao asked again, "If I'm not lying, what does Director Jiang plan to do?"
Jiang Zhiwei was unsure whether Yu Yao was bluffing or had actually accomplished it, and didn't know how to answer.
"What?" Yu Yao walked up to Jiang Zhiwei with her arms crossed. "Director Jiang, are you admitting that you wronged me just now?"
Jiang Zhiwei looked into Yu Yao's eyes and said to her in a voice only the two of them could hear, "Yu Yao, don't push your luck. You don't know if the other party has any leverage over you, do you?"
"Is Director Jiang threatening me?" Yu Yao said deliberately in an exaggerated tone, "Why don't you show me what you have on me? Let's see if I'm scared."
Their eyes met, and a palpable tension seemed to emanate from them.
Jiang Zhiwei narrowed her eyes.
Is she really not afraid? Or is she certain that person will protect her?
Just then, Li Zhaodi poked her head in from outside, breaking the tense atmosphere in the finance department. "Director Jiang, I need to see you urgently."
Jiang Zhiwei seized the opportunity and dared not accept Yu Yao's offer again. "I'll be right there. Accountant Liu, our intended transaction amount this morning is 112,000."
After saying that, she glanced at Yu Yao and quickly left with Li Zhaodi.
Yu Yao watched her retreating figure and sighed.
What a pity, we almost fell into their trap.
As expected, practice makes perfect. It's been too long since I've acted, and my acting skills have declined a bit. Next time, I need to act even more seamlessly.
Once the eyesore was gone, Accountant Liu stood up and pulled Yu Yao aside. "You really made 200,000? How did you do that?"
