Chapter 195 Changes in Furniture Factory Orders
Accountant Hu suddenly came to her yesterday and told her that there seemed to be something wrong with the order from the furniture factory.
Originally, for their red brick orders, they would have the accountant settle the payment directly after the goods were brought to the site and checked to be correct.
This was also what Shen Anan and the furniture factory had agreed upon at the beginning.
This was how they had been settling payments in the past few months, but now the people at the furniture factory suddenly informed them that due to financial problems at the factory, the payment for the goods would have to be settled once a year.
What's more, their implicit meaning is that they feel that buying red bricks from Wanyang Brick Factory requires special transportation, which is not cost-effective, and they want to reduce the number of subsequent orders.
"An An, the person who was in contact with our brick factory before has been replaced this time."
"What do you think? Should we give some gifts to people and walk around a bit?" Accountant Hu frowned and gave his advice in a low voice.
It is definitely not possible to settle the payment once a year. After all, the factory operation also has costs, and the team's work points are settled every six months. The brigade really does not have that much money to advance the payment.
Moreover, from the impolite tone of the contact person, he felt that the furniture factory would no longer cooperate with them.
Although they have received some orders themselves, most of the orders are for small quantities. The initial operation of the brick factory still depends on orders from the furniture factory.
"Brother Hu, don't worry. I was planning to go to the county recently. I just happened to go to the furniture factory." Shen Anan pondered for a moment and comforted Accountant Hu.
"That's good, that's good!" Accountant Hu was relieved when he heard that Shen Anan was going there in person.
After all, this order was brought by Ana Shen in the first place, so she must have more ways than others.
"Brother Hu, don't worry. We have signed a contract with the furniture factory. They will definitely not go back on their word on the order. As for the payment, I will try my best to communicate with them."
Shen Anan intuitively felt that something must have happened in the furniture factory.
Their previous contact person was a close confidant of Deputy Director Zhao, who had always been very polite. But this new contact person suddenly became so impolite, which made it clear at first glance that something was not right.
"By the way, Brother Hu, did you come up with the idea of giving a gift?"
Accountant Hu was stunned for a moment, thought for a moment, and said hesitantly, "I think it was my own idea. It was mainly because Director Li kept praising our red bricks and said that he was also building a house in his hometown."
"I was thinking, we are a brick factory after all, if we can use a few truckloads of bricks to build some connections, that would be a good deal!"
"Well, after all, it's easier to deal with the King of Hell than with the little ghosts!" Accountant Hu said with a long sigh.
After all, the reason is that their brick factory has not yet established a solid foundation and does not have that many orders to support it.
"Brother Hu, listen to me, I always feel that there is something strange about this matter."
"You must not send them anything until I return from the county."
"I'm afraid this is a condom made especially for us."
Shen Anan's words were not aimless. She knew Accountant Hu. He was an honest man. If he hadn't been guided by someone, he would never have thought of giving gifts.
Moreover, the excuse this person found was too coincidental, and the things they wanted were easy for them to get.
After all, if he wanted something else, the Wanyang Brigade might not be able to provide it, but red bricks were different.
Of course, this was just her initial guess.
But for some things, it's always better to take precautions before they happen.
"Ah, I, I understand." Accountant Hu turned pale with fright after hearing what Shen Anan said.
If what An An said was true, then he almost became the sinner of the team.
"An'an, don't worry, I will definitely listen to you." Accountant Hu repeatedly assured Shen An'an.
He was really scared because he had harmed the Wanyang Brick Factory.
"Brother Hu, this is just my guess. I'm not sure. Maybe I'm just overthinking." Shen Anan looked at Accountant Hu's pale face and quickly changed the subject.
Accountant Hu forced a smile and told himself that he must be extra careful next time.
He was in charge of the accounts of the Wanyang Brigade before and had no experience in dealing with outsiders. From now on, he must be extra careful about the matters concerning the Wanyang Brick Factory.
After all, this is the golden baby laid by their team!
Shen Anan did not bring Zhao Shunzi with her when she went to the county town this time, but brought Wang Zhen with her instead.
On the one hand, Zhao Shunzi happened to go to the next town to get an order and was not in the team.
On the other hand, she also wanted to take Wang Zhen to the town to see if there were any new opportunities.
After coming back this time, she really felt that Wang Zhen had changed a lot. Since changing her name, she has indeed become more and more confident.
Especially after starting work in the brick factory, my whole spirit and energy has changed.
Accountant Hu and Shen Yuanhao also praised her a lot, saying that she was careful and very friendly.
Wang Zhen helped a lot with many of the orders in the town that Sister Zhou had introduced before, especially the aunts, who all trusted her very much.
Shen Anan was also very pleased with her change. Sometimes a person's change seems to happen overnight.
The moment she changed from Wang Tingmei to Wang Zhen, she seemed to have broken free from the shackles that bound her.
This time when she went to the county, Shen Anan also brought back a lot of specialties from South Island and Jing City, which included some small gifts in addition to food.
For example, the hairpin for Tang Tian and the coconut carving prepared for Deputy Director Zhao.
In addition, before leaving, she took the time to send a short story she had written about abduction prevention to several newspapers.
Of course, I also sent a copy to Phoenix Publishing House in Beijing, but it was not sent directly to Uncle Zhuang, but to the editorial office below.
After all, if Uncle Zhuang saw it, he would probably find a way to get her manuscript approved, which was not what she wanted.
Before Wang Zhen set off, he found a family in the team, gave them one dollar and some food, and let Wang Xiaobao stay there for a few days.
For that family, this was an unexpected gain, so of course they readily agreed.
The main reason is that Wang Xiaobao has changed a lot since the incident with Wang Po.
He is completely different from the lawless devil he was before, and he usually helps Wang Zhen with housework.
From time to time, he would even sneak to the big locust tree in the team and imitate Shen Yulin and others, writing some weird symbols on the ground with tree branches.
At first, Shen Yulin and the others didn't want to pay attention to him and pretended that Wang Xiaobao didn't exist.
In the end, I found that Wang Xiaobao seemed to have really changed, and he had lost his parents, so he was indeed pitiful, so I let him join the army of people practicing calligraphy.
All I can say is that children’s temper comes and goes quickly, and they are often the least likely to hold grudges.
After Wang Zhen settled Wang Xiaobao, Shen Anan and Wang Zhen set off for the county town.
Along the way, Wang Zhen suppressed her excitement and kept reminding herself not to embarrass Shen Anan.
She had never been so far away before, and she had only been to town a few times before.
It turns out that the world outside is so wonderful!
