"If I remember correctly, the first prize was a bicycle, and the second prize went to that kid, which was five thermoses! That's over two hundred yuan in total, almost half a year's salary for a worker. So that family said they're not going to pursue the matter anymore?"
Section Chief Xie glared, "Didn't you realize that something was amiss?"
The sales team leader's eyes flickered, and he felt a little guilty.
It was he who hosted the lottery event that day, and it was he who made the decision that the little kid's lottery would not count, which provoked the family to become indignant and argue with him.
It was precisely because of this that the human traffickers had an opportunity to take advantage of him! If the matter was really investigated, he would have an unshirkable responsibility.
But he still held a glimmer of hope in his heart, but his tone was no longer as firm as it was that day.
"It's also possible...it's possible...that they really did something, and we and the people exposed them on the spot, so...that's why they don't dare to cause trouble again..."
"Nonsense!" After listening to them talk about the lottery process and what happened, Section Chief Xie had already seen the key point!
"The lottery boxes and tickets were prepared by our people. How could a little kid cheat? Could it be that there's a traitor among us, colluding with that family?
Section Chief Xie slammed the table and glanced helplessly at the people in the room. He felt so overwhelmed!
These people look like normal people, but are the things on their necks just for eating?
"Director Zhang, why are you so sure that the problem lies with that family?" Section Chief Xie rubbed his temples and looked at Zhang Lan.
He was now hoping to find out the crux of the problem, but also praying that the problem didn't lie here!
If this is the real problem, then they are really wrong! Not only did they wrongly accuse someone, but they also caused them to lose their child. As the saying goes, what can be tolerated?
Meeting Director Xie's puzzled gaze, Zhang Lan replied,
“Although I wasn’t there that day and didn’t see the person who drew the lottery, the key lies in the triplets!
Twins are okay, but I haven’t seen many triplets. I think there are probably not many people around you who have given birth to triplets, right?
And I just happen to know someone! And this person happens to be Master Wu’s favorite niece!
If I'm not mistaken, the family that drew the lottery here that day was the family of Uncle Wu's niece!
From what I've learned, Master Wu holds his niece and three children in his hands, and they're so precious to him that he's afraid they'll break even."
As soon as these words were spoken, there was a sound of gasps in the office.
Judging from the triplets and their involvement with Master Wu, we can almost conclude that Zhang Lan's judgment is most likely correct.
Section Chief Xie took a deep breath, and it seemed as if his six meridians were instantly opened up, but he soon collapsed back on the chair in exhaustion!
He kept muttering, "So that's it! So that's it!"
"Section...Section Chief, then...then what should we do next?"
After confirming that they had provoked Mr. Wu, the sales team leader didn't dare to look Chief Xie in the eye and asked timidly.
Half of the month has passed, and their sales are less than one-fifth of what they used to be. This is the first time since he took on the position of sales team leader!
If he continues like this, not to mention bonuses, it’s even a question whether he can keep his position as sales team leader!
"How would I know what to do?!"
Section Chief Xie stroked his forehead and swept away all the items on his desk!
There was a loud clanging sound in the room.
He is the main person in charge of the department store. Although this matter was caused by the poor performance of his subordinates, Mr. Wu's actions were obviously aimed at him as the person in charge!
Moreover, the higher-ups have noticed the serious decline in their profits this month and ordered them to identify the problem within a short period of time and make timely corrections, otherwise...forget about getting a promotion, he's probably going to be in this position for the rest of his life!
He didn't think so before, but now thinking about it, he even suspected that it was all Master Wu's doing!
"Director Zhang, you just said that you know that family. Is there any way to ask for their forgiveness?" After calming down, Section Chief Xie asked.
He was turned down by Master Wu, and now the only way out he could think of was Zhang Lan!
Zhang Lan actually had no idea!
From her several contacts with Lan Guoer, although Lan Guoer seemed easy-going, she had her own ideas and not anyone could influence her.
This time, they not only wronged someone else's child, but also caused them so much trouble.
She really couldn't guess whether Lan Guoer could swallow this anger and choose to forgive them.
Besides, she had only had a few contacts with Lan Guoer, and one of them was very unpleasant because of her sister-in-law Wang Yuzhen. Whether Lan Guoer would give her this face is still another question!
Although this was difficult, but thinking of the information she had gathered, Zhang Lan still said,
"Based on my understanding of Comrade Lan Guoer, she is not unreasonable!
I think since we were the ones who made the mistake first, we must show our sincerity first, and then ask for forgiveness, Chief, don't you agree with this?"
"Yes, yes! You're right!"
Section Chief Xie now only has Zhang Lan as his support and he almost obeys her opinions.
"Based on Director Zhang's understanding of Comrade Lan Guoer, what should we do next to make her feel our sincerity?" asked Section Chief Xie.
"First of all, we have to deliver the prizes that people won that day, right?" Zhang Lan said bluntly.
"Then, we'll see what they have to say and do our best to satisfy them. We must always show our sincerity and attitude!
After all, because of this incident, not only did they suffer injustice, they almost lost their child!"
"Okay!" Chief Xie made the decision.
"I'll leave this matter entirely to you, Director Zhang!
As long as we can calm the other party down, Master Wu is willing to resume cooperation with the department store. As long as it's within our approval scope, we'll agree to everything!"
If there are requirements, it can still be discussed, but what Section Chief Xie is most afraid of now is that the other party has no requirements!
After hearing Section Chief Xie's promise, Zhang Lan breathed a sigh of relief and felt more confident.
With Mr. Zhao as her backer, she could have lived a carefree life in the unit like many other salespeople.
But she knew that if you rely on mountains, they will fall and if you rely on people, they will run away, so she has been working diligently in the unit over the years.
He also worked his way up from a salesperson to his current position as a director, and his abilities were naturally honed through hard work!
In addition, Mr. Zhao is old, and his disappointing eldest son is clamoring to buy a house!
The family has saved some money over the years, but it is only enough to buy one house.
There are two sons in the family. She can't favor one over the other and buy only for the eldest and not for the second, right? Although the second son is still young, he will eventually grow up and have his own family, right?
