As Sun Tzu's Art of War says, if you know yourself and your enemy, you can fight a hundred battles with no danger of defeat.

He first lurked around the Fushun Biscuit Factory, and used various means to strike up conversations with employees at various positions in the factory to collect the information he needed.

It took Pei Yang three days to not only find out Wang Hongcheng's background and character, but also learn a piece of news that was not a secret.

Hengxing Company intends to order mooncakes from Fushun Bakery for its employees as a welfare gift for the Mid-Autumn Festival next year.

Hengxing is engaged in the import and export trade of daily chemical products. It has more than a dozen branches across the country and is considered a leader in the industry in the three northeastern provinces.

Pei Yang did not hide what he was doing from Shen Mingzhu. He would report the progress and next plans to her every night.

Shen Mingzhu found it very interesting and felt that she and Pei Yang were living a very new kind of married life.

While other young couples kiss and have sex in bed, she and Pei Yang lie in bed every night and talk about business wars.

I even feel like I'm off work during the day, just like being addicted to a TV series, and I'm eager to know the follow-up.

However, Shen Mingzhu did not forget about the wedding.

Pei Yang patted his chest to show that everything was under control. "The hotel has been booked. The initial reservation is for ten tables. Once the guest list is calculated, we will notify the hotel to make changes if there are additions. I have asked Shu Huan to help with the wedding candies, cigarettes and alcohol. My sister will be in charge of the guest list for the Pei family, and your parents will be responsible for notifying your mother's family. On the day of the wedding, we will rent a bus to pick up your mother's relatives to the city for the banquet, and then send them back by bus in the afternoon."

Shen Mingzhu was very satisfied with this arrangement.

After all, it was just a make-up wedding, so there were fewer complicated procedures. It was enough for relatives and friends from both sides to get together for a meal and have some fun.

The next day after get off work, Shen Mingzhu went to the tailor shop and took the wedding dress home.

She liked the modified wedding dress very much. The large ruffles on the neckline were removed and replaced with a simple V-neck, which looked simple and fresh.

Looking at herself in the mirror wearing a wedding dress, Shen Mingzhu couldn't help but smile.

No wonder the bad man always stopped halfway before, it turned out that he wanted to give her a perfect wedding night.

It is true that a man remains a boy until he dies.

A man with a sense of ritual can really bring a lot of fun and romance to life, making ordinary and boring days interesting.

…

After finding out Wang Hongcheng's background, Pei Yang and Pei Wenping went to find him.

Wang Hongcheng was obviously well prepared and was not at all panicked when facing Pei Yang and Pei Wenping's questioning.

Pei Yang didn't waste any time and went straight to the point, saying he wanted to see the sales report for the previous quarter.

Wang Hongcheng laughed and said, "Oh, you came at a bad time. I went out to do some work a few days ago and accidentally lost my bag. The sales report for last quarter happened to be in the bag."

Pei Wenping smiled with a fake smile, and said in a crisp and clear voice, "If there is no sales report, the financial report will be fine."

Wang Hongcheng stopped pretending and said, "I'm afraid this is not very convenient. The financial statements are the factory's internal secrets and cannot be shown to others."

Pei Wenping didn't waste any words on Wang Hongcheng's rogue behavior. She took out the settlement sheet and placed it in front of Wang Hongcheng.

"The signature on this settlement form is yours, Manager Wang, right?"

Wang Hongcheng was unsure of Pei Wenping's intention for a moment, and hesitated without saying a word.

Wang Hongcheng's expression changed slightly.

Pei Yang continued, "Sister, you said that a company as big as Hengxing would not cooperate with clients whose accounts are in disarray and whose partners have financial disputes, right?"

Pei Wenping glanced at Wang Hongcheng and answered Pei Yang, "Of course. Honesty is the foundation of business. Our cotton mill will not cooperate with people who are dishonest, no matter how good their products are. Manager Wang, I believe you feel the same way, right?"

The brother and sister sang the same tune and made naked threats. It would be strange if Wang Hongcheng could look happy.

But he is also a shrewd man who can bend and stretch. "Calm down, you two. We can discuss this. Don't you just want to see the financial statements? I'll ask Accountant Fan to bring them to you right away."

Soon, Fan Wei sent over the financial statements for the previous quarter.

As a senior accountant with ten years of experience, Pei Wenping can describe her reading of financial statements in three words: fast, fierce and accurate.

She finished reading the report of more than ten pages in just three minutes.

There is no problem with the report, but the accounts and the settlement statement obviously do not match.

Facing Pei Wenping's questioning, Wang Hongcheng pretended to be surprised, "Is that true? Accountant Fan, what's going on? Why don't the actual accounts match the settlement statement?"

Fan Wei thought to himself, "Why don't you have any idea about the accounts? But he quickly shirked the responsibility and said, "Director Shen's account statement was calculated by the new Xiao Xu. Maybe he made a mistake. I will recalculate it right away."

Probably to make the performance more realistic, Wang Hongcheng put his hands on his hips and yelled, "What does this Xiao Xu do for a living? He can't even do such a small thing. I'll pay him his salary and ask him to get out!"

An employee who had a good relationship with Xu Yang happened to pass by and immediately told Xu Yang about this.

Xu Yang is just 20 years old this year, at the age of full of vigor and vitality. When he learned that he was blamed, he immediately rushed into Wang Hongcheng's office to argue.

"Manager Wang, it was you who ordered Accountant Fan to modify the account statement. What does it have to do with me? Why did you fire me?"

Wang Hongcheng said that he would fire Xu Yang, but he was just pretending in front of Pei Wenping and Pei Yang. He did not really want to fire Xu Yang.

But he never expected that Xu Yang, this young and foolish man, would directly expose the collusion between him and Accountant Fan, which made him so angry that he almost fumed.

"I'm the boss, I can fire anyone I want, get out of here right now!"

This time he was really fired.

Xu Yang was furious. "Wang, I've tolerated you for so long. You know nothing and all you do is talk nonsense! I'm here to work, not to take the blame for you. I quit! Fuck you!"

After scolding Wang Hongcheng, Xu Yang did not forget to tell the siblings on the spot about Wang Hongcheng cheating Shen Mingzhu out of the settlement fee.

…

Xu Yang's self-exposure undoubtedly put Wang Hongcheng into an extremely embarrassing and passive situation.

Pei Yang took the opportunity to put forward his demands: First, the outstanding settlement amount must be paid in full; second, the cooperation must be terminated and the Ronghua brand must be taken back, and Fushun Bakery Factory must not use it in the future; third, if Fushun Bakery Factory wants to continue using the Ronghua mooncake recipe, it must pay a one-time lifetime usage fee of 5,000 yuan.

Wang Hongcheng didn't care about the first request. One thousand yuan was nothing to him, so he just gave it. Anyway, the money originally belonged to Shen Mingzhu.

The second one was exactly what he wanted, but the third one made him feel very painful.

Five thousand yuan is not a small amount; it is equivalent to a quarter's profit of his bakery.
