Chapter 341: Chapter 342 Xu Ying Resigns
Director Wang looked troubled as he sighed and said, "The success of our Department Store’s braised food and groceries is all thanks to your excellent cooking skills, Xiao Xu.
The hot pot you mentioned naturally looks promising, but buying a set from you guys isn’t cheap, and people who work for a living don’t have that much money to spend on it!
Let’s forget it. I won’t be purchasing the hot pot."
Buying just a hot pot base would be more cost-effective, and it’d be perfect paired with your own choice of dipping sauces and meat.
Director Wang felt he was simply too clever.
But Xu Ying’s response quickly dumbfounded him: "Ah, that’s a pity, our food factory has signed a contract with the seasoning factory; they can’t sell the seasonings and dipping sauces separately, only in partnership with our food factory.
It seems like the Department Store will miss out on our food factory’s new hot pot."
Director Wang’s eyes widened in disbelief; he always knew the food factory staff were all cunning.
Especially this little girl, too scheming.
After finishing her point, Xu Ying stood up to leave.
Director Wang became anxious; when it came to interests, brotherly affections were nowhere to be found.
He hurriedly said, "Xiao Xu, wait a moment, let me think it over more thoroughly.
Actually, what you suggested isn’t impossible; it’s just a matter of the Department Store setting up a few more tables.
If people could buy their daily necessities and then sit down to enjoy a meal, that would be terrific."
Xu Ying gave a thumbs up and complimented, "There’s a reason Director Wang is a leader at the Department Store, you’ve got a long-term vision.
What you said, I totally agree, being able to buy necessities and then sitting down for a meal would indeed be very comfortable."
Director Wang nodded, all pretense gone: "Then I’ll purchase a batch first, and if they sell well, I’ll place more orders."
Xu Ying smiled, nodding, and produced a contract: "Then you’ll have to try it quickly, Director Wang, we’ve first informed our local folks about this hot pot.
In a few days, we’ll notify the foreign guests, and if they also like this hot pot, you’ll probably have to queue up for orders."
Hearing this, Director Wang felt a twinge of sourness.
Who didn’t know that the food factory’s braised duck and pork were nearly sold out, nowadays they only accept big orders from foreign guests.
Their Department Store hadn’t sold any braised food for a month, and customers were coming in every day asking for it.
"Xiao Xu, go back and talk to your factory director, we’re all close folks here, you should prioritize selling to our own people first!" Director Wang said sourly as he signed the contract.
Xu Ying received the contract and quickly nodded.
Then she saw Huo Chen and Wu Qingsong, and ran over to them full of surprise: "What brings you here!"
Huo Chen saw the joy brimming in Xu Ying’s eyes as he touched her cheek and pinched it saying, "I’m here to discuss a business deal with your factory."
"You’re not here to wholesale hot pot sets, are you?" Xu Ying said, astonished.
Huo Chen nodded: "Yes, I think the new hot pot you’ve developed will be a huge hit. I plan to wholesale some and sell them in other provinces."
Xu Ying nodded, readily agreed, and took Huo Chen to the factory.
To avoid any conflict of interest, Huo Chen personally negotiated with Mr. Sun, while she stood at the office door.
Huo Chen emerged quickly, and once he left, Mr. Sun was overjoyed—it was a perfect start.
Mr. Sun’s joy lasted only a moment before Minister Zhang called.
After the call, Mr. Sun looked worried as he looked at Xiao Xu and said gravely: "Our factory has a new staff member reporting tomorrow, sent from above to replace Deputy Factory Director Qian."
Mr. Sun had reached the age of retirement and it seemed very likely that he might retire at any moment in the next couple of years.
Vice Factory Director Qian had been suspended, so besides Mr. Sun, only Vice Factory Director Yang remained in the factory.
To prepare for Mr. Sun’s retirement and to ensure that the factory was adequately staffed, a new Deputy Factory Director was transferred in to assist Mr. Sun with his work.
Although it was said to be assistance, it was highly likely that this was a move to replace Mr. Sun.
Mr. Sun sighed. If only Xiao Xu weren’t too young, and if the girl didn’t have to take the university entrance exams, he would have considered giving the factory director position to her.
However, that would break the rules and so he let go of the thought and turned to Xu Ying to ask, "What do you think about Vice Factory Director Yang?"
Xu Ying chose not to get involved in these murky waters and replied with a smile, "Everyone is working for the factory; there’s no distinction to be made."
Mr. Sun chuckled and said, "If you say Old Yang has the factory’s interests at heart, that’s certainly true, but sometimes Old Yang is just too soft-spoken, lacking firm conviction.
Sigh, I don’t even know if the leader’s newly appointed person is here to replace me."
If that were the case, he would feel sorry for Old Yang.
Xu Ying stood to one side, not getting involved in the matter.
Her university entrance exams were imminent and after that, she would probably get married. Taking this opportunity, Xu Ying directly offered her resignation.
"Factory Director, I’m getting married this month and next month I’ll be sitting for the university entrance exams. If I get into university, I’ll need to go study and won’t have time for work.
I wanted to let you know in advance of my resignation."
Mr. Sun couldn’t accept losing such a good talent and laughed, "Xiao Xu, if you go off to university, so be it, but why resign?
Your task is different from ours; just make sure you develop new products for us each month. You can continue to work without coming into the factory."
Xu Ying hadn’t expected this pleasant surprise and quickly nodded her head, "Factory Director, those are your words, so I won’t be polite then."
Mr. Sun nodded, looking at Xu Ying with an expression akin to a father’s: "You’re getting married; time really flies. It’s been over a year since you started working here in the factory.
Alright, go back home and focus on your revision, don’t let beauty distract you, and don’t forget your responsibilities after you get married."
Mr. Sun offered these words of advice.
Xu Ying nodded, after handing over her last responsibilities, she rode her bicycle home with her belongings.
When Xu Ying returned, Zhang Guifang and several children were also at the Xu Family home.
Seeing Xu Ying return, she immediately stood up, her expression somewhat panicked: "Yingying, why did you bring all your stuff back?
Was it because of the incident with me this morning that affected you, were you fired by the factory director?"
Mrs. Xu, seeing her daughter come home with a heap of luggage, also felt puzzled. Still, she didn’t believe her daughter would be fired.
After all, she was well aware of the benefits her daughter brought to the factory.
Mr. Xu’s face showed curiosity: "Why did you pack up and bring your luggage back? Aren’t you going to work at the factory?"
"It’s almost time for the university entrance exams. I came back to study, to prepare. Besides, my marriage to Huo Chen is approaching as well.
The Factory Director said that once I’m in university, I can continue with my studies and don’t have to go into the factory for work anymore, just submit my monthly assignments."
Third Brother Xu saw his little sister packing up and hurried over to help.
Xu Ying sat down at the table and drank a glass of water.
Mrs. Xu was somewhat irritated to see her daughter bring back so many things: "You should have told me this morning.
You could’ve had your brothers bring your luggage. Carrying so much luggage on a bike must have been so heavy for you."
