This chapter is broken. Please report this on discord.
"Director, this is the financial statement for last month. The total profit is 193,456 yuan. The workshop renovation depreciated for ten years, a total of 437,000..."
Shu Ping looked through the financial statements for July and listened to the report of the accountant Huang Hongxia. Overall, she was very satisfied. After all, the more than 100,000 yuan was pure profit. Because the new product was launched, the cost increased a lot. There were hundreds of boxes of sausages entrusted to old customers.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work. Please make a separate columnar table for sausage bread and analyze it from the perspective of cost and profit. Give it to me before Friday."
Huang Hongxia put away her notebook and nodded in response, "Okay, Director, I will sort it out as soon as I return to the office."
Shu Ping plans to use a year to explore the market potential of sausages. Since she took over the factory, she has not stopped the pace of reform, but many changes are not achieved in one go. It takes time and patience to adjust.
At the end of July, heavy rains fell in many parts of the country, and it was endless. Shu Ping remembered the news she saw on TV when she was a child, how the floods were raging.
She was still very young when the floods occurred in her previous life, and she did not have a deep impression, otherwise she would definitely make sufficient preparations in advance.
Thinking of this, Shu Ping immediately picked up her phone to notify the senior management of each department to hold a meeting.
"Everyone should have heard about the heavy rain in the south through the news. I have a feeling that this heavy rain will cause floods in many places. In order to prevent it, we will stop supplying products to customers in the future. We will ship them to various places according to the severity of the flood. If there are customers who disagree with the delay of delivery, they will directly pay the liquidated damages according to the contract."
This decision was so sudden that it shocked the participants. Except for Huo Feng who knew her plan in advance, other employees felt that the situation was not serious enough. If they followed the instructions of the factory director, the food factory would bear huge compensation.
Li Yueling, the sales manager, was particularly worried and persuaded, "Factory director, our factory has hundreds of boxes of orders shipped out every day. If you stop it, I'm afraid customers will have opinions."
If they don't pay the liquidated damages and it will affect future business. Although the food factory belongs to the Shu family, hundreds of workers in the factory rely on this job for their livelihood.
Salaries can only be paid if the benefits are good. Nowadays, who in the village and town is not envied for working in a food factory? The welfare benefits brought back during the Chinese New Year and other holidays alone are worth half a month's salary in other factories.
"I think at such a critical moment, everyone should unite and work together. If there are customers who don't understand and don't want to cooperate with us, it's not a pity to lose such customers."
Shu Ping said solemnly to everyone present, "Maybe many people think of 'exploitation' when they mention capitalists, but the purpose of my factory has never been to gain profits through exploitation. The country has set 'common prosperity' as a development goal and basic national policy. As the director of a small food factory, my goal is also to run the factory well and let the workers live a happy life. When I have the ability, I will help those in need in the society. As the saying goes, 'If you are poor, you should take care of yourself, and if you are rich, you should help the world.' I think all patriotic Chinese should have such a sense of mission."
These words were so moving that everyone realized that the director's awareness was so high. Before, they only thought she was smart, capable, and kind, but they still underestimated her.
Huo Feng looked at his girlfriend with a smile on his face. He was proud and an undying fire was burning in his heart. As a former soldier, he had a strong desire to do something to help those affected by the disaster.
His girlfriend was so positive, and as a boyfriend, he couldn't let her down. "The husband sings and the wife follows" is the hard truth.
Just as Li Yueling guessed, some customers were angry about the unilateral decision of the food factory. They did not believe that Hongyuan stopped supplying goods because of flood relief. They believed in conspiracy theories that Hongyuan just sold the goods to others at a high price, and they were the disadvantaged group that was unfortunately picked by "picking the weak ones".
Just as they were about to make a harsh protest, the food factory had already readily offered compensation.
The solution of liquidated damages felt like hitting cotton, and everyone was silent.
Liquidated damages are three times the price of the goods. If the previous idea is followed, unless there is a fool who takes over at a high price, it is not cost-effective at all.
Some people wondered in confusion, could it be that the explanation given by the food factory was true? Did they breach the contract for disaster relief?
But there was no disaster, and Fengxiang County was peaceful and prosperous. How could a township enterprise have such a big pattern?
No matter how the outside world speculated, Hongyuan's workshops were in full swing and working overtime. The factory had two trucks that could deliver goods. According to the inventory and production speed, they could leave in the evening.
Shu Ping was discussing personnel arrangements with Hu Huiying, and there was a knock on the door. She looked up and saw the tall and mighty Huo Feng standing outside the door.
Just as the matter had been explained, Hu Huiying put away the notebook and left. When she passed the door, she smiled and gave Huo Feng a teasing look.
Shu Ping felt much more comfortable in front of her boyfriend. She stretched her waist with a cry, hugged Huo Feng around the waist and asked him to pull her up.
Huo Feng rubbed her hair and leaned over to kiss her. He said with a slightly reluctant but firm look, "I just heard that you are going to arrange Ye Wei to lead the team to the front line?"
Shu Ping nodded, "He is originally a salesman, his communication and coordination skills are not bad, and he can drive. Let him do the work as a training. There are still too few people who can be used in the factory now."
Huo Feng sighed, stroked her cheek with some jealousy and asked, "Don't you think it is more appropriate to hand this matter over to an experienced old comrade? I have driven a transport vehicle in the army, I have experience in disaster relief, and my physical fitness is not bad. Now the country has sent troops to fight floods and disaster relief. I may meet acquaintances when I go there, and it will be easier to communicate."
This meaning couldn't be more clear. Shu Ping did not consider letting him lead the team, but even if she was rational, she would inevitably have some selfish motives.
Whether she was worried about his safety or simply didn't want him to leave for so long, she didn't put Huo Feng in the first option.
Now that he brought it up himself, Shu Ping knew that she couldn't stop him. Breaking the wings of an eagle and locking it in a cage is not protection for the eagle, but a shackle.
She sighed and leaned into the broad chest, and said in a humming voice, "If you want to be a hero, can I stop you? I'm afraid that once you arrive in the disaster area, you will forget what danger is, so you have to promise me first that you will always put your life safety first. If something happens to you, I really don't know what to do."
He is the only man she wants to marry in her two lives.
There are thousands of men in the world, and it is not possible to create sparks with just anyone. A strong woman like her who is self-reliant and can't tolerate any sand in her eyes is the most suitable for a moral model like him who is tolerant.
Hearing her earnest exhortation, Huo Feng's heart was sweeter than a candy bar, soft and warm like cotton. In the past, he only knew the four words "bravely move forward" in the army, and he had an attitude of no regrets no matter what mission he was on. Now that he has her, he has a bond, and even if he can't help but act, he will do it within his ability.
"Okay, I promise you that I will never put myself in danger, and I will safely send your heart to the front line and to the people who need it most."
Huo Feng secretly made up his mind that when the disaster is over, he will buy the most expensive and beautiful ring to propose to her. Originally, he planned to have enough financial conditions, but with her earning speed, he was afraid that he would never catch up with her in his lifetime, and the gap would get bigger and bigger.
Instead of worrying too much, it is better to follow his inner desire. He is confident that he can give her a happy family and future.
