Chapter 88 This order must be accepted!

It turned out that the commune had previously promised their brigade to set up its own factory, but it also had some requirements.

Because the commune was worried that Wanyang Brigade would draw too many strong laborers to the brick factory, which would affect the grain harvest, it required that the brick factory should not employ more than 7 people.

However, the work in the brick factory is physical labor. In order to burn as many red bricks as possible before the ground freezes in winter, Shen Yuanxing and the old secretary discussed and decided to recruit ten people for the first batch.

Originally there were only three quotas, and the commune would not have discovered it unless it conducted a detailed investigation. But I didn’t expect that someone would go to the commune and report Wanyang Brigade for cutting off its capitalist tail under their real names!

What was even more unexpected was that the team members actually had a conflict with the people from the commune because of the brick factory, and the situation suddenly got out of control.

Shen Yuanxing's face was filled with regret. "It's all my fault. If I had just followed the commune's instructions, nothing would have happened."

Shen Anan shook her head and persuaded her second brother, "Second brother, don't worry, Secretary Lei might praise you later."

Shen Yuanxing hung his head like an eggplant hit by frost, "Hey, don't comfort me, it seems that my time as captain has come to an end."

Because the confrontation between the two groups in front of the brick factory gate was not a solution to the problem, the old secretary suggested that everyone go to the brigade headquarters and sit down to have a good talk.

Because the team members were worried, they selected a few representatives to go to the brigade headquarters with everyone. The others were driven back to work by the old secretary, looking back every few steps.

…

…

Inside the brigade office, everyone sat on either side of the desks. Accountant Hu was busy pouring water for the commune leaders, and no one spoke for a while.

Suddenly, a sarcastic voice broke the silence in the room, "Hey, Shen Yuanxing, your Wanyang Brigade is really promising. Today, I, Old Wang, have seen something new."

Shen Anan's gaze moved over following the voice, wanting to see who this fierce man was who spoke so arrogantly in front of the commune leader.

Oh, it’s him?

Wang Yongfu was the captain of the neighboring Hongqi Brigade. The two production teams often had frictions. I just don’t know why he followed the commune leaders to their Wanyang Brigade this time.

The matter of the brick factory was of utmost importance, and Shen Yuanxing told himself to ignore Wang Yongfu's words.

Shen Yuanxing took a few deep breaths and forced a smile, "Dear leaders, I'm sorry that you were frightened by what happened today. It's my fault that I didn't handle it well. I will reflect on myself."

"But our team's brick factory really can't be closed. The leaders also know that our team is having a hard time. The work points are worth less than 20 cents. To be honest, the team members are so busy all year round that they hesitate to buy candy for their children during the Chinese New Year."

"As the team leader, I just want everyone to have more money. As for the personnel of the brick factory, I..."

When Shen Anan heard this, she tugged at the corner of her second brother's clothes under the table to stop him from saying the next words.

Shen Anan said with a guilty look on her face, "Hey, Secretary Lei, you can blame me if you want. It's all my fault that I got excited when I heard about the order for two staff buildings from the furniture factory, and I impulsively agreed to the county furniture factory."

"The team leader and the old secretary are also worried that the output of our brick factory is too small, so they want to hire more workers. After all, if we ship too slowly, the order may be breached."

"What! Are you telling the truth? Is this really an order for two staff buildings?" Secretary Lei stood up excitedly, staring at Shen Anan without blinking, as if trying to tell the truth from her face.

Shen Anan was about to speak, but was interrupted by Wang Yongfu.

Wang Yongfu looked at Shen Yuanxing with disdain, "Shen Yuanxing, you are really amazing. You can actually make up such an outrageous excuse to shirk responsibility."

"Oh, and your sister!" Wang Yongfu pointed at Shen An'an. "Shen Yuanxing, you said you were doing this for the team members, but you stuffed your sister into the brick factory as the sales director and made up lies. Do you think the leaders of the commune will be fooled by your tricks? Impossible!"

He was deeply impressed by Shen Yuanxing's sister. After graduation, she did not work and just lived off her parents and brother. She was just a piece of trash!

Shen Yuanxing’s lies are so outrageous!

Luo Xingchang's face darkened when he heard this, "Shen Yuanxing, is she really your sister?"

As the director of the Supervisory Committee, Luo Xingchang always investigated thoroughly any backdoor nepotism and favoritism. Coupled with what just happened in front of the brick factory, he had a bad impression of the entire Wanyang Brigade.

"An An is indeed my sister, but..."

"You don't have to say anything! The organization has always had zero tolerance for such things!"

The old branch secretary suddenly became anxious, "Shen Anan was appointed as the sales director because our brigade leaders voted unanimously. It was definitely not a backdoor decision."

Shen Anan felt a little tired when she saw the scene in front of her. Wasn’t it about the order? Why did it go astray? How can she continue with this play?

"Okay! Shut up!" Secretary Lei slammed the table hard and stopped the chaos with a sullen face. “What are you doing!?”

Secretary Lei turned around and looked at Shen Anan: "Is the order for the two staff buildings true?"

Shen Anan sighed, with a bit of distress on his face, "Hey, I'm not sure about this order now, mainly..."

"I told you this order was fake!" Wang Yongfu seemed to have caught something.

"I said shut up and listen to her. Don't you understand?" Secretary Lei was interrupted by someone again and again, and he became angry. "If you interrupt again, get out!"

When Shen Yuanxing saw Wang Yongfu being humiliated, the corners of his mouth lifted up uncontrollably, but quickly dropped again.

Why did An An say that the order was uncertain? Could it be that the furniture factory has gone back on its word?

Shen Anan cleared his throat and said, "It's like this. Originally, the cooperation between our brick factory and the county furniture factory was to supply red bricks for a staff building. I didn't expect that after this visit, the furniture factory increased the order to two buildings because of the good performance."

"Hey, but our brick factory can't complete this order within the agreed time, let alone seven people, even with the current expansion of ten people, so I'm thinking, if it really doesn't work, then, we can only postpone this order."

"An An, don't!"

"Don't push! Absolutely don't push!"

The voices of Shen Yuanxing and Secretary Lei sounded at the same time.

Secretary Lei pondered for a moment, staring at Shen Anan with burning eyes, "Are you sure you can get the order for those two staff buildings?"

Shen Anan took out the contract issued by the furniture factory from the backpack on his waist and handed it over, "Look, this is the contract. It only needs our signature and seal to take effect."

Secretary Lei took out his glasses from his pocket and read the contract carefully from beginning to end, as if he had made up his mind.

"We must accept this order! If the brick factory is short of manpower, we can recruit more. We must complete this order beautifully!"
