Chapter 059? I have a problem, I hold grudges!
Director Chen sighed helplessly, "Lao Lin, you haven't believed me for all these years, brother? I've told you countless times that Comrade Xiao Jiang is really here to help our factory. We don't have the kind of relationship you think."
Qiao Zhen glared at him, "It doesn't matter? It doesn't matter. Why would a little girl come to our shabby garment factory? I don't know what kind of magic potion she poured into you to make you so obedient."
Lao Lin hesitated and shook his head. "Director Chen, whether you have a relationship with Xiao Jiang or not is beyond my control, but you absolutely cannot let these clothes be ruined! We were so hard up that we couldn't bear to sell these work clothes at a low price. Now you're actually going to fade?"
Xiao Jiang is obviously an amateur. If she doesn't understand, don't you understand too? Don't you know what happens when dyed clothes fade? If you're not careful, the color of the clothes will fade! Who would want stained clothes? It's not impossible that they will be severely corroded and damaged. "
Director Chen looked helpless. "You won't believe anything I say. How about this? Let me fish out this vat of faded clothes, and we'll give it a try first, okay?"
Qiao Zhen and Lao Lin refused without hesitation: "No! Either you resign as factory director or you kick Jiang Shiyue out of the factory today."
"I can go!" Jiang Shiyue spoke loudly outside the crowd.
The three groups of people looked at her in unison.
Wherever Jiang Shiyue passed, the workers made way for him.
She finally stopped at the front of the onlookers, forming a three-way stand with Director Chen and Qiao Zhen.
Jiang Shiyue turned to Qiao Zhen and Lao Lin and said, "However, before we leave, we have to settle the score first! I have a problem with holding grudges! And I don't like to wait ten years to get revenge. I like to get revenge on the spot.
You just slandered me, saying I had an ambiguous relationship with Director Chen."
Jiang Shiyue's eyes fell on several familiar faces, and these people avoided her gaze.
They were all the people who had attended the dinner party on the day she first arrived.
"I thought this matter was over on my first day here, but I didn't expect someone would still think so today. How about we make a bet?"
Jiang Shiyue's words were directed to Qiao Zhen.
Qiao Zhen was stunned. She didn't expect Jiang Shiyue to dare to challenge her openly.
Most women would have covered their face and run away in shame if they were accused like this, but Jiang Shiyue was still as if nothing had happened. She is really thick-skinned.
She curled her lips in disdain, "What's the bet?"
"If you have evidence to prove that Director Chen and I have an ambiguous relationship, I'll do whatever you ask me to do. But I must be able to prove that Director Chen and I are innocent. From now on, I'll do whatever I say."
Qiao Zhen said nothing.
It’s not that she felt that Jiang Shiyue was slandered, but mainly because she had no evidence.
Jiang Shiyue sneered, "Alright! Then I'll take a step back. Let's put my relationship with Director Chen aside for now. Let's talk about the renovation of this batch of work clothes first. I heard there are 2,000 pieces in total. You can take 1,000 pieces, and it doesn't matter if you lower the price or force them, as long as you can sell them. I'll also take 1,000 pieces, and the deadline is ten days. Let's see who sells faster, how about that?"
Lao Lin asked, "Where's the bet?"
"If you sell quickly, I will not only pack up and leave, but also buy all these..." Jiang Shiyue pointed to the large vat behind him, "all the altered clothes. But, if I sell quickly! I will increase the selling price of this batch of work clothes by 20%! You also have to apologize to me for what happened today!" Jiang Shiyue raised two index fingers and shook them.
Lao Lin and Qiao Zhen looked at each other and whispered about settling the accounts.
The cost of making these work clothes is 6 or 7 yuan per set. If they sell them at the low price of 8 yuan per set, 1,000 sets will be 8,000 yuan. If they sell them at 20%, that would be 1,600 yuan.
Eight thousand yuan minus one thousand six hundred yuan leaves six thousand four hundred yuan.
No loss!
Since the factory is not losing money anyway, there is no reason to be afraid to agree to it.
Lao Lin and Qiao Zhen nodded.
"Okay! Let's bet!"
Director Chen whispered to Jiang Shiyue, "Comrade Xiao Jiang, don't be impulsive. What if you really lose?"
He didn't believe that Jiang Shiyue could come up with 8,000 yuan to buy clothes.
Jiang Shiyue gave Director Chen a calming look, then said to Lao Lin and Qiao Zhen, "Words alone are not enough. How about a written agreement?"
Qiao Zhen and Lao Lin had no objection.
The finance person brought pen and paper and wrote two copies for both parties to sign and put their fingerprints on.
"Who will be the witness?" Jiang Shiyue asked.
Qiao Zhen and Lao Lin both said they didn't care. After all, they were all from the garment factory and would not take sides with Jiang Shiyue.
"I'll do it!"
Everyone turned back again.
Wang Guihua supported Mr. Hu and walked quickly over.
Mr. Hu obviously has a high prestige in the garment factory.
Lao Lin and Qiao Zhen also respectfully called him "Old Factory Director."
Old Hu raised his cane and pointed at them, scolding them: "You two are almost a hundred years old combined, how come you're still so confused? Do you really think you're so great just because you were their senior for a few years? Don't you know that there are always people better than you? I think the factory's current situation is largely due to you. I hope this will teach you a lesson."
As Mr. Hu spoke, he bent down, picked up a pen and wrote his name on the notary's desk.
After finishing writing, he asked Jiang Shiyue, "Girl, do you think I can trust you?"
Jiang Shiyue smiled and answered readily: "Of course."
Mr. Hu nodded, "One more thing."
With his cane, Elder Hu pointed at the people who had dined with him that day. "How many of you didn't take your eyes off the table in the cafeteria that day? You watched Comrade Xiao Jiang being slandered and his reputation ruined, and you didn't even say a word?"
