Chapter 42 The Little Mute Gains a Big Point!
Li Jichuan finished a plate of dumplings and was so full that he kept burping.
Are the dumplings from southern Yunnan famous? Why are they so delicious?
Carrying an empty tray, I remotely controlled the wheelchair to the living room and immediately saw Su Pu sitting cross-legged on the carpet, his arm resting on the coffee table, looking at the reports he had brought back.
Su Pu was so focused that he didn't even notice him coming out.
"What are you doing?"
Li Jichuan suddenly spoke, startling Su Pu.
Facing his glaring deer-like eyes, Li Jichuan obediently shrugged in submission.
"I didn't mean to scare you, but why are you looking at those things?"
Just as a snake strikes at its vital point, Su Pu always had Li Jichuan firmly under her control.
Su Pu lowered her eyes, pursed her lips, and prepared herself mentally.
Then, he picked out a few documents from the mountain of files, hugged them to his chest, and showed them to Li Jichuan.
Li Jichuan took it, glanced at it briefly, and didn't notice anything unusual.
"What's wrong?"
Su Pu seemed slightly conflicted, and pointed to two sets of data on the first page of the two documents—
They are exactly the same.
You can check the dates; the stamped dates on the two documents should be about five years apart.
Li Jichuan grabbed the two documents and began to compare them carefully.
At this moment, Su Pu took out the third document.
The same set of data, accurate to three decimal places, was exactly the same...
Some things don't need to be said; Li Jichuan can understand them.
Seeing that his expression had become serious, Su Pu took out another stack of documents that she had organized and handed them all back to him.
The suite remained quiet for a long time, with only the rustling of paper breaking out.
After a long while, Li Jichuan confirmed everything and then raised his head.
His expression carried a hint of lingering illness, yet he was also very cautious.
How did you find out?
Su Pu typed: [Last night I accidentally spilled a cup of coffee. While trying to salvage some documents, I suddenly felt like I'd seen the same numbers before. I tried to guess the pattern and compared them several times, but something just didn't feel right.]
Li Jichuan was still holding the two documents Su Pu had initially given him in one hand. He opened them and saw two light brown marks on the data on the first page.
"I understand..." Li Jichuan rubbed his temples.
Su Pun pursed her lips, unable to resist clarifying: "I didn't mean to look through your files, I just found it strange and wanted to help you..."
He was awakened by Li Jichuan's weak groans late last night and has been busy taking care of him ever since.
The little mute had been working for a long time, and during a break he made himself a cup of instant coffee, hoping to boost his spirits, but it only led to another disaster.
He just found it strange that the numbers could overlap so precisely.
More than anything, he wanted Li Jichuan to share some of the burden, even if his efforts were insignificant to Li Jichuan. But he had just come over and disrupted Li Jichuan's work schedule, so he had to do something about it.
He has to be useful and valuable so that he won't be abandoned!
As Su Pu continued to peruse the documents, he was still surrounded by those cold and sarcastic remarks.
Some of them came from Zhao Qing, who chuckled as they watched him compare data item by item under a dim light, mocking him for overestimating his abilities and for offering his warm welcome to someone who wouldn't listen.
Some came from the Su family, laughing at him as a "Su servant" while saying he was worthless and would be kicked back to his dilapidated rented room by Li Jichuan sooner or later.
Oh, by then, the rental apartments will probably be gone too.
After all, it wasn't his house. Once the lease expired, the landlord would rent the room to a new tenant, and Su Pu would have nowhere to go...
But, but.
He couldn't just stand by and watch Li Jichuan suffer like this for such a small amount of food.
Even if all her efforts are in vain, or she is just showing off her skills in front of an expert, as long as she can help Li Jichuan share even a little bit of the burden, even just a little bit, Su Pu's trip will not have been in vain!
Through persistent comparison, he soon discovered a pattern—
The weight of rose petals collected five years ago is exactly the same as that collected five years later, and it is accurate to each month.
However, the total output presented in each report is the sum of multiple figures working together.
Therefore, the figures reported to the group vary each year, but the overall trend is upward.
In other words, the same set of numbers was not updated for about five years, but was artificially repeated.
However, in addition to this figure, the overall output and gross profit margin are constantly increasing.
Therefore, from the results, this production line presents the illusion of increasing output and profits year by year, with continuous positive growth.
However, Su Pu was ultimately an outsider, completely unfamiliar with the Li family's business structure, yet he dared to rashly present the results to Li Jichuan to claim credit and reward...
Would Li Jichuan think he's stupid?
After a moment, Li Jichuan let out a heavy breath, and then chuckled.
Su Pu's heart sank. Sure enough, Li Jichuan thought he was naive and short-sighted...
Just like his mother mocked him.
He was like a little dandelion, drifting wherever the wind blew, resigned to fate, with no other choice.
“Su Pu…”
Li Jichuan finally spoke, his eyes shining.
"You're my savior!"
But Su Pu couldn't understand the next sentence.
What does that mean? Is it a compliment?
Did he "save" Li Jichuan?
Li Jichuan gathered the reports on his lap, stacked them up, and then called Anderson, urging him to come over quickly.
Li Jichuan's voice was filled with excitement, as were his expression and actions; his excitement was visibly palpable.
"Supu, Supu..."
Li Jichuan called his name, but Su Pu was in a daze, feeling that it was the most beautiful love confession in the world.
After a moment, Su Pu asked him to confirm: "Will these help you?"
"This is a huge help!"
Li Jichuan smiled and looked at him, "Su Pu, you're amazing! Why don't you become the CEO? You really have found the crux of the problem!"
Su Pu was puzzled.
ah.
It turns out that Li Jichuan didn't feel he was wasting his time; it turns out this wasn't a futile effort after all...
His efforts earned him a genuine smile from Li Jichuan, providing a breakthrough for the problems that had been plaguing him.
Su Pu felt a little lightheaded, as if he were walking on clouds.
This was confirmed once again after Anderson arrived.
Anderson was more tactful than Li Jichuan and knew better how to satisfy Su Pu's little vanity.
He elevated Su Pu to the status of a major contributor, a key figure, and the crucial key to the development of the Li family.
Su Pu's ears turned bright red as he spoke, and although she knew he was exaggerating, she still laughed with great pleasure.
He is such a useful person!
This trip to southern Yunnan was definitely the right decision!
He is very important. If he doesn't come, no one will treat Li Jichuan's illness, and no one will be able to discover the flaws in the documents.
Su Pu is very capable and useful.
Because the world's smartest people, Li Jichuan and Anderson, are saying the same thing...
...
In the afternoon, Li Jichuan created a program that imported nearly twenty years of data from the production line.
The results completely confirmed Su Pu's discovery.
Fifteen years ago, the production line began to replicate past data in five-year cycles.
Every stroke matches perfectly.
Li Jichuan laughed in anger. Just how arrogant must they be to be so lazy as to not even bother to change the data, assuming that the investigation wouldn't reach them?
However, with everything ready, they still lacked a personal identification document.
Someone who can prove that the production of rose raw materials does not match the reported data.
Li Jichuan rested in the hotel for two more days before returning to the factory and meeting with the person in charge.
The other party respectfully agreed to his request and led him into the rose garden.
"Once autumn arrives, roses are out of season and will not be harvested as raw materials."
The person in charge explained to him, "So, there are fewer workers. Those troublemakers you wanted to see, they've all gone out to have fun. There's nothing left for them to do, isn't there?"
Li Jichuan didn't respond, gazing at the vast flower field before him.
As autumn arrived, the roses had passed their peak blooming period and no longer met the harvesting conditions set by the group.
Only a few workers remained in the fields, collecting the petals and fruits that had not yet withered, and sending them to nearby partner factories to be processed into agricultural products to help alleviate poverty. All the proceeds were donated.
The Li family had strict standards for the variety and condition of roses. If the time had passed or the condition was not good, even if the roses were slightly withered, they would not be included in the picking.
Right now, Su Pu is breathing in the rich fragrance of flowers and walking through the rose field, feeling very happy.
He loves flowers, especially roses, and always finds them romantic.
Lost in thought, he found himself heading deeper into the flower field alone.
Suddenly, someone grabbed his arm with such force that he was thrown from one end of the field to the other.
Su Pu was startled and instinctively used sign language.
If someone goes astray, you can simply point it out; why drag them into this mess?
The man paused for a moment, then responded with sign language.
"You're going to dirty the flower field!"
Su Pu reacted in two seconds, then realized something was wrong.
"Everyone is standing in the flower field, why are you only talking about me?"
It has to be said that the little mute boy has indeed changed a lot; he has learned to speak up for himself.
I don't know who influenced me, but I felt I was right, so I argued my case forcefully and wouldn't budge an inch...
He just felt that he shouldn't be treated differently; he was just walking in the flower field like everyone else.
To his surprise, the other party was even more anxious and indignant than he was.
No, you're wrong!
The other person responded with sign language while making babbling sounds.
"This is Yunnan red rose, which is different from other roses... If we don't protect the soil and plants here, this place will be gone next year."
Su Pu was taken aback, then looked around.
The rose petals in this patch are indeed a bit darker in color than those in the patch in front.
But you can't see it at all unless you look closely.
"But isn't this entire garden planted with Yunnan red roses?"
Su Pu asked.
I have a feeling that the key to uncovering the truth has once again fallen into his hands.
