Back To The 80s: President's Doted Wife
Chapter 455: Arrival So Swift

Chapter 455: Chapter 455: Arrival So Swift

Having instructed Ying Xiaoya on a series of matters, Cheng Su herself dared not delay and rushed to the company without stopping, where her assistant, Mai Yanmei, greeted her as if she were a savior.

"President Cheng, you’re finally back!" Mai Yanmei said anxiously, "The newspaper has called several times today, asking if our company has sold expired jam!"

Cheng Su’s footsteps halted as she glared at her, "How did you respond?"

"I, I of course said that’s impossible, our company’s jam is always fresh." Mai Yanmei was close to crying as she said, "Later, I had Sister Fen take the calls."

"Go call Zhu Lifen over!" Cheng Su ordered.

Mai Yanmei quickly ran out, and soon after, Zhu Lifen came over in a hurry, "President Cheng!"

"Bring me the order forms you’ve handled recently, both new and old!" Cheng Su didn’t beat around the bush as she continued, "Someone has reported our company to the Food Safety and Sanitation Department for selling expired and spoiled inferior products, and it’s even been leaked to the newspapers. County Chief Ying has managed to suppress the news for us! We need to handle this immediately, or we’re in big trouble."

The color drained from Zhu Lifen’s face, "Could it be why there were several calls today asking if our company’s jam was expired?"

"I estimate the Food Safety and Sanitation Department will come for an inspection. First, get the recent business orders, then go to the workshop and instruct the workers to clean up every area again, strictly enforcing the dress code!" Cheng Su ordered urgently.

"Yes!"

Zhu Lifen left in a hurry, and Cheng Su received a call from Ying Xiaoya. It was Prosperous Small Department Store on Zhengnan Second Road that had sold the product, receiving a hundred pounds of merchandise.

"Did you see it clearly? Are you sure it’s our product?" Cheng Su asked, "Could it be a counterfeit by someone else?"

"It is indeed ours, the labels are all the same, in one-pound glass jars," Ying Xiaoya’s voice was dry.

A heavy feeling sank in Cheng Su’s heart, "Tell them to take it all off the shelves until our investigation is clear."

After she finished talking with Ying Xiaoya, Zhu Lifen had already come back in, holding a file of business documents.

Cheng Su directly asked her if there were any orders for Zhengnan Second Road.

Zhu Lifen was startled, opened her folder, and said, "There is such an order; it was placed not long ago. Let me see... Found it!"

She pointed out the order form to Cheng Su.

There indeed was an order for the Prosperous Small Department Store, a hundred-pound order, placed during the days Cheng Su was ill.

Cheng Su felt deflated upon seeing the name in the salesman’s signature column – Zhao Da.

"Has Zhao Da come in today?" Cheng Su asked.

"He said he was going to visit a client and hasn’t arrived yet," Zhu Lifen replied with some unease, then asked, "President Cheng, is it really a problem with our jam?"

"That’s what I should be asking you. When was this batch sent out, when was it made, and were the materials and processes used the same? As the sales manager, you should be aware of these details," Cheng Su said with a piercing look, pausing before continuing, "Xiao Ya has already gone to check and confirmed it is indeed our jam. Go and find out when exactly this batch was made. I’ve already instructed her to bring back samples, so we can figure out what’s going on when they arrive."

Zhu Lifen’s face turned red as she said, "I’ll look it up right away."

"President Cheng," Mai Yanmei ran in, her voice filled with panic, "Someone who claims to be from Food Safety is outside, saying they want to carry out an inspection!"

Zhu Lifen’s face showed concern.

Cheng Su stood up abruptly, furrowing her brow.

They’ve arrived so quickly!
