1486 Take the Money and Get Lost
“Then is there still enough time to deliver the goods?” Qiao Mei asked unhappily with a frown.
“It was discovered in the nick of time. We’ve already worked overtime to make up for it. We can deliver the goods at the time agreed with our partners, and there’s no problem with the quality,” Wang Fang said calmly.
Qiao Mei nodded in satisfaction. She realized that Wang Fang was even more detailed than Chi Ze and was very meticulous in all aspects. Moreover, she was a very responsible person. It seemed to be a waste of her talent to ask her to supervise the workers. When she had time later, she would promote Wang Fang and let her do more management work.
“What are you whispering about! Quickly give us an explanation! Otherwise, I’ll call the police!” The woman continued to shout, completely ignoring Qiao Mei’s unhappy expression.
Qiao Mei tapped her fingers on the table impatiently. After thinking for a moment, she said, “Tell me what your request is.”
“We just want a full month’s salary, so you have to make up for the amount we lost!” the woman said. The other two nodded in agreement. That was what they wanted too.
“Only your salary?” Qiao Mei asked.
“Yes! We want our salary! We don’t want anything else!” the woman said.
“Give them the deducted amounts then,” Qiao Mei said.
“Then what about our losses?” Wang Fang said with heartache.
“If they want their salary, then we’ll satisfy their request. However, we also need someone to bear the losses. Ask the finance department to calculate how much each person should pay and get them to compensate us down to the cent. Then fire them.” After saying that, Qiao Mei wanted to go back to the lounge to sleep for a while more. The woman was very displeased to hear Qiao Mei’s solution and quickly blocked Qiao Mei’s way.
“What are you saying! You want us to compensate you and then you want to fire us! What right do you have to do this!” the woman shouted.
Qiao Mei turned around and looked at Wang Fang. Wang Fang immediately understood what she meant and said, “Her name is Zhang Zhi.”
After saying that, Wang Fang also pressed the phone button on Qiao Mei’s table. That was the fastest way to get the security officers downstairs to come up and protect Qiao Mei.
The security officers in the factory were all recruited by Luo Yu through proper interviews. Every one of them was strong and knew martial arts. They were definitely good at their job.
“Sister Zhang, if you have any grievances, talk to your superior and ask your superior to come and look for me instead of shouting at me here. Don’t try to deal with me by using the same tactics you used in your previous workplace. I won’t stand for it,” Qiao Mei said sternly.
“Why can’t I come and look for you! Aren’t you in charge of all the matters in this factory! How do I know who my superior is! I just want to come and look for you! You don’t do anything every day and only know how to drink tea in the office! How do you know how difficult it is for us! Who knows if the people working for you are fair and just!” Zhang Zhi said relentlessly.
“Yes, what you say makes sense, but I believe in the people who work for me. If you’re not convinced, then take your salary and get lost! If you don’t want this job, there are plenty of people who want it!” Qiao Mei shouted fiercely. Wang Fang, who was standing behind her, was shocked. This was the first time Wang Fang had seen Qiao Mei when she was angry.
“You! You’re unreasonable!” Zhang Zhi said as she pointed at Qiao Mei.
“Go and reason with the police. Security officer! Ask her to leave!” Qiao Mei said.
The two security officers who had been standing at the door immediately rushed into the room to drag Zhang Zhi away. The other two women had only come along because Zhang Zhi wanted to kick up a fuss. They did not expect to be fired as well. None of them was spared.
Qiao Mei took two steps back and slumped into her chair. She had not eaten last night or this morning and her blood sugar was a little low. She felt a little dizzy after shouting just now.
“Qiao Mei, are you alright?” Wang Fang looked at Qiao Mei nervously.
“I’m fine. Sister-in-law, can you help me go to the canteen to buy some porridge and a salted duck egg? I’m feeling a little dizzy,” Qiao Mei said weakly.
Wang Fang did not dare to leave just like that. What if something happened to Qiao Mei while she was away? She quickly picked up the phone and called Li Gui, asking her to come to Qiao Mei’s office to take care of Qiao Mei. She only felt at ease to go and get food for Qiao Mei after Li Gui arrived.
“Mei Mei, you should go home and rest for a couple of days,” Li Gui said.
