Knowing the truth, how did the Zhao family treat her before?
Yu Mingxiang dared not think about it too deeply, for it brought her excruciating pain.
The next day was the sixteenth day of the twelfth lunar month.
Yu's Pharmacy completed the order from the town government, producing the second batch of 10,000 plasters.
Yu Mingxiang and her two sons borrowed an oxcart from the village and went to the town again. After delivering the plaster at the town hospital, Mayor Xiao Changqing arrived with his men and settled the remaining processing fee.
This time, in addition to the processing fee, there were also dozens of coupons for rice, flour, and cooking oil.
When handing the money and tickets to Yu Mingxiang, Xiao Changqing smiled and said, "According to the regulations for organizing production, these are the tickets allocated to your pharmacy. As for who to allocate them to and how to allocate them, Comrade Yu, as the person in charge of the pharmacy, you are fully responsible for that."
Yu Mingxiang never expected that her pharmacy would actually enjoy the same benefits as a regular pharmacy and even receive coupons. Upon hearing this, she accepted the money and coupons and repeatedly expressed her gratitude, "Thank you! Thank you, Mayor Xiao!"
Xiao Changqing waved his hand, "You're welcome."
He smiled and said, "I have already sent someone to deliver the batch of plasters you sent before, but the person in charge of receiving them is currently not in the country."
"Once he returns to China and signs for the plaster, I will notify you as soon as possible if there are any additional orders."
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang expressed her gratitude once again.
After exchanging pleasantries, Yu Mingxiang noticed that Xiao Changqing and the old director of the town hospital were exchanging glances, looking as if they wanted to say something but hesitated. She raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Is there anything else you two need?"
She tentatively said, "You two helped me a lot to get my pharmacy up and running. If there's anything I can do to help, please let me know!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Changqing remained silent.
Knowing that the person in question wasn't there, he felt a bit more confident. He took a deep breath and said, "It's like this, Comrade Yu. The plasters you sold to our town hospital before have long been sold out."
"Not only is our town hospital sold out, but the plasters that were allocated to the Watou town hospital have also been out of stock for a long time."
"The people of Watou Town couldn't buy the plaster, and they even came to Watou Town to complain. The people from that town specifically contacted me, and I..."
"Our town government and town hospital would like to jointly place an order for a batch of plasters from you. I wonder if you would be willing to accept the order?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang exclaimed, "!!"
Like someone offering a pillow when you're about to doze off, she replied almost without hesitation, "Why wouldn't I? My pharmacy is already open. Since orders are coming in, why wouldn't I accept them?"
Xiao Changqing and the old dean were speechless upon hearing this.
They looked at each other, their faces showing confusion.
The reason Comrade Yu agreed so readily was because she had no idea about the nature of her pharmacy!
Her pharmacy...
It was approved by a special department!
The signature on the approval document wasn't from a local resident, but from a special department in Beijing!
Therefore, in a sense, Yu's Pharmacy was under the jurisdiction of the military and had no right to govern or interfere with its production and operation by the local authorities.
Thinking of this, Xiao Changqing wiped his face and said, "Comrade Yu, this matter is not as simple as you think!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang asked, "???"
A look of utter confusion on his face.
"Why isn't it that simple?"
She asked hesitantly.
Xiao Changqing took a deep breath, ultimately determined not to let this matter slide.
Because this matter is not easy to fool.
If things go wrong, it could be like poaching military personnel, and he and his father-in-law would be in deep trouble!
"Comrade Yu, it's like this..."
Xiao Changqing looked serious and carefully considered his words before saying, "Your pharmacy actually belongs to a special department!"
"According to the production organization regulations, even if you are willing to accept our orders on the premise of completing the production tasks of your subordinate department, you may still need to submit an application report yourself!"
As he finished speaking, Xiao Changqing's voice grew softer and softer.
Upon hearing this, Yu Mingxiang asked, "???"
I was completely stunned.
"What special department?"
She asked with a look of surprise and uncertainty, "Isn't my pharmacy under the jurisdiction of the town?"
