Chapter 195: Guxian Food Factory Makes Trouble Again

-

Sophora japonica food factory.

A week has passed since the donation ceremony, but there is still no headline about the Huaihua Food Factory in the newspapers.

Before the newspaper arrived, news came that the cooperation with Gu County had ceased.

Ji Sisi and the people from the sales department were sitting in the conference room, listening to their report on the current partner statistics.

A total of ten supply and marketing cooperatives were lost, which meant a loss of 7,000 to 8,000 yuan per month, which was a big blow to the Huaihua Food Factory.

"Beef jerky and beef paste are not cooperating either?"

Ji Sisi found it strange. Guxian had just started making beef jerky and it was not known whether it would sell well or not, but how did they know how to make beef jerky and beef sauce now?

Niu Da opened his mouth, "It's the same routine as last time for beef jerky. This time they directly asked for two months' supply, and then said they would not cooperate next time, so that we don't have to travel so far. They said that the food factory in Gu County will soon be producing beef jerky and beef sauce."

The other two nodded in agreement.

“I have the same argument here.”

"Me too."

The educated youth group was not affected too much for the time being, but they also started to worry.

Gao Shu asked, "It's obvious that they are targeting us. All their products are copied from us. So won't their management and business models also be copied from us?"

The educated youth were the most worried. If this model was adopted by all state-owned factories, wouldn’t the situation become more and more serious?

Everyone couldn't swallow this anger.

"I will recruit security guards in the next two days. Everyone should pay attention to whether there are any suspicious people near the factory. Also, check the source of our purchases. If any suspicious person appears, report it at any time."

After the meeting, Ji Sisi returned to the office and called Ma Xiaoqin to the office.

"Xiao Qin, our factory needs to hire two security guards. They need to eat and live in the factory. They will work night shifts once a week and day shifts twice a week. The monthly salary is 20."

"You should also go to the spice factory with Manager Hu this afternoon to check out the situation."

It is becoming increasingly inconvenient for her to travel far away, and she can only ask Ma Xiaoqin to handle many things.

“Is there an age limit for security guards?”

"It's best not to be over fifty, over thirty."

In the afternoon, Ma Xiaoqin followed Hu Zhibin to the spice factory in the county town.

Ma Xiaoqin was the one who came to purchase goods every time, and the security guard was familiar with her.

"Xiao Qin, didn't you come here two days ago? Why are you here again today?"

"Uncle Jiang, I'm not here to purchase goods. I want to ask you something. Are there other people in the factory who buy similar spices as us?"

There aren’t really that many spices for sale in other counties, so we all come to Lu County to get them.

Hu Zhibin skillfully handed the old man a cigarette.

Uncle Jiang took it naturally, thought for a while, and spoke slowly, "Last week, there was a person from another place. His accent didn't sound like someone from our area. The letter of introduction was from Gu County."

"It's just like you guys. He came in and asked me what materials your factory usually buys. I'm just a janitor, what can I know?"

Uncle Jiang smiled and said, "Then he went back to talk business with Section Chief Wang. Why are you suddenly asking about this?"

Hu Zhibin cursed in a low voice, "Damn it, they stole things even in our house, these people in Gu County are so shameless!"

Hu Zhibin's curse caught Uncle Jiang's attention.

"What's going on? What happened?"

Ma Xiaoqin came out in time to smooth things over, "It's nothing, thank you for what you did today, Uncle Jiang."

Hu Zhibin wanted to confront the people from Gu County right now, "These bastards."

"Manager Hu, don't worry. Our recipes are kept confidential. It's impossible for them to copy them all. And Manager Ji said that if we wait until we get through this, everyone will definitely give priority to the ones that taste good."

Hu Zhibin calmed down, but he still felt uneasy.

"Manager Hu, if I remember correctly, Master Shi has to go to Hongqi Commune to deliver goods this afternoon. It's still early now. How about we wait for Master Shi to come up and take his car to Gu County to check the situation?"

Ma Xiaoqin suggested going to Gu County to see what the situation was like and then buying some beef jerky they made to taste it.

Hu Zhibin agreed, "Then let's go to Hongqi Commune and wait for Master Shi. He will be here at 1pm."

Ma Xiaoqin and Hu Zhibin rushed to Hongqi Commune again, waiting to go to Gu County to see the specific situation.

-

Ancient county.

Ma Xiaoqin went to the supply and marketing cooperative alone. Hu Zhibin and Master Shi usually delivered goods. Most of the grocery stores in the supply and marketing cooperative knew them.

In order not to alert the enemy, Ma Xiaoqin went alone.

"Comrade, I want to ask how much is a pound of your beef jerky?"

Ma Xiaoqin looked at the beef jerky in the cupboard. From the appearance, it was not much different from theirs.

She looked around again and found that the beef jerky and beef sauce were still produced by their factory.

The salesman brought a scale and said, "Seven yuan a pound, how much do you want?"

Seven yuan per pound, the retail price has not changed, the wholesale price in Gu County is 63 cents.

"Then comrade, please give me half a catty." When Ma Xiaoqin was about to pay, he realized that he didn't have that much money on him. "Comrade, wait a minute, I'll ask my friends to raise some money."

The salesperson had already weighed the beef jerky and was ready to pack it in bags when Ma Xiaoqin suddenly stopped her with an unpleasant look on her face.

But fortunately, Ma Xiaoqin didn’t say no, so he could only put the beef jerky aside and wait for her to come back.

Hu Zhibin and Master Shi were sitting in the car. When they saw Ma Xiaoqin running back empty-handed, Hu Zhibin thought he had been discovered by the people from the supply and marketing cooperative.

"Manager Hu, I don't have that much money on me. Can you lend me two dollars?"

Ma Xiaoqin only had one dollar on him, and including the ticket, he couldn't even come up with two dollars.

Hu Zhibin was startled and quickly took out the money and gave it to her. "I thought something had happened."

Ma Xiaoqin took the money and went back. When she was about to take the beef jerky back, she heard someone arguing loudly next door.

The sound was so loud that all the customers of the supply and marketing cooperative were attracted over there.

Ma Xiaoqin looked at the innermost door. With a bang, the door was pushed open and then slammed shut in one smooth move.

"Manager Zhang, you must keep your word. I and others have no way out. You told us that the product cannot be launched on time, and you must be responsible for the loss!"

The man walking in front didn't even turn his head, but just left a sentence.

"We are sorry for what happened to you. We will find a way to compensate you. Don't worry."

The man behind chased after them and blocked their way, "What do you mean by trying to find a way to compensate? You have to give me a definite answer, then I can feel at ease."

"You promised us that the other two products would be the same as last time, so we don't have to worry."

"Now you have exceeded our expectations again. Just one word from you could cause me and my other brothers to suffer heavy losses!"

Ma Xiaoqin took the opportunity to ask the salesperson, "Comrade, are you going to sell any good stuff here?"

"Do I look like I know that?"

The salesperson was also confused and looked at the manager and Manager Zhang from the food factory.
