Eighties Sweetheart Wife-Chapter 671: The Land May Change, but a Person’s Nature Hardly Does

Chapter 671: Chapter 671: The Land May Change, but a Person’s Nature Hardly Does

Sun Jinrong felt like jumping up.

"Mom, are you joking? How can I handle merchandise worth tens of millions?"

Old Mrs. Song laughed irritably, "You are the head of a factory, and you tell me you have no way of handling this? Sun Jinrong, how could you have the audacity to say such a thing? Aren’t you embarrassed?"

Seeing that Old Mrs. Song was truly angry, Sun Jinrong no longer dared to argue, but the expression on his face was far from good. The factory was in trouble now, his eldest sister-in-law and second sister-in-law had both arrived. What was this supposed to mean? Were they here to enjoy the drama?

And there was Song Yunuan. Most of Xiangjiang was her territory. All she had to do was give the other party a heads-up, and there would be no need to come knocking on the door like she had made a big mistake.

Song Yunuan looked at Sun Jinrong, and she was very disappointed, truly very disappointed.

Actually, she really wanted to give her younger aunt a chance.

Not for anything else, but for Huzi.

The reason Huzi went to Hai City to study was because he did not want Sun Jinrong to always find excuses to come to Beidu and meddle in the family’s business before he became independent.

The family does well only if everyone is doing well; that’s a simple truth.

Although Huzi’s thinking might be a bit naive, his direction was correct. He should know best what kind of person his mother is.

So after discussing with Old Mrs. Song and her father, Song Yunuan suggested giving her younger aunt a chance.

She always wanted to meddle in the family business, didn’t she? Then let her meddle. There’s nothing shameful about that, hiding it will only make her more suspicious.

Therefore, the Song family mostly agreed, only Old Mrs. Song was not very agreeable.

She said that a leopard never changes its spots; Sun Jinrong had changed a lot over the years and was not the same as she used to be.

The old Sun Jinrong was narrow-minded and could only ever match her in scheming.

Moreover, she was raised by that swindler. Even when she finally realized that this swindler had tricked and hurt her, ruining her life, her character was already formed.

She was already over thirty when she discovered this, how easy could it be for her to change those habits?

But for the sake of her son and grandson, Old Mrs. Song agreed to give Sun Jinrong a chance.

How to give her that chance?

With her personality, could she be willing to work under her sisters-in-law?

Wouldn’t there be trouble every other day, and then outsiders would laugh at them?

So, giving her a factory to manage, letting her practice, wouldn’t it be better if she actually succeeded?

But looking at it now, trash is trash, a hopeless case that cannot be helped.

But you have to admit, such hopeless cases are always the best for themselves; no matter the circumstance, they manage to stay the most comfortable.

Just look at the current situation, isn’t it exactly like that?

Even though it’s noon, when you’re in the workplace, is it really proper to be wearing pyjamas and loungewear?

In the event of an emergency, others would have to wait for you to change your clothes, wouldn’t they?

It really is too careless.

Old Mrs. Song also knew that many CEOs and chairpersons have such comforts these days.

But can you, Sun Jinrong, compare to them?

This is a new factory, and you haven’t been the director for very long, should you not have familiarize yourself with the entire factory by now?

I have mentioned this to her before, but now it seems she just ignored it as if it were nothing.

Such a big incident has happened, and she still has no clue about it.

Is it possible that one day, if the factory is sold off, she would still be smiling and helping others count the money?

Song Yunuan cut off Old Mrs. Song and asked Sun Jinrong very seriously, "Auntie, the question Grandma is asking you is reasonable. As the director of Zhilan Jewelry Factory, when such a serious incident occurs at your unit, not knowing about it right away is negligence.

But now is not the time to pursue this issue. As the director, we agreed from the beginning that we would hardly be involved in managing this factory, and you’ve never let us meddle in its affairs.

The call came from our group’s Nan City Branch Office, saying that Deputy Director Zhao, who was responsible for this shipment, called you many times but you didn’t answer. He has now fallen ill with a high fever and has been hospitalized. Then his subordinates called your secretary, a man you promoted after coming to the factory called Wu Hai. He didn’t dare to tell the whole truth, just informed the secretary that there was a problem with the batch of goods and asked Secretary Wang to report it to you."

"Now I’m asking you, did Secretary Wang report to you?"

Sun Jinrong’s mouth twitched. Of course, Secretary Wang had reported to her, but she was busy watching a TV drama at the time and didn’t feel like talking to her, so she told her not to interfere unnecessarily.

Who would have thought that a real problem would occur.

To say she didn’t inform Secretary Wang would be a lie since Secretary Wang keeps a log of her schedules.

She records everything she does every day in a notebook.

Old Mrs. Song pointed at Sun Jinrong and said, "Just looking at your face, I know that Secretary Wang must have told you, but you didn’t take it seriously. Sun Jinrong, do you know what your job is? You are the director of the factory! When millions worth of goods are transported, shouldn’t you track it from start to end? Isn’t that what you’re supposed to do?"

Sun Jinrong’s face was filled with embarrassment, and she bit her teeth hard.

"Don’t give me that resentful look, Sun Jinrong. I want to ask you, why didn’t you answer Deputy Director Zhao’s calls?

You didn’t answer the first time, the second time, or even the third time. Why didn’t you think to call him back after seeing his calls?

When Secretary Wang told you there was a problem with the goods, why did you tell her not to interfere? frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

Since you told her not to meddle, why didn’t you take action yourself?

I’m asking you, did you call them back in turn?

Was it to Deputy Director Zhao or to Wu Hai?

Looking at you, it appears you did neither. Sun Jinrong, do you think this factory is your playground?

This is a factory with almost a billion yuan invested in it, not set up for you to play with. We are supposed to make money from it, Sun Jinrong. Even an old woman like me understands this. Do you, the astute Sun Jinrong understand this logic?"

This time Xia Guilan did not hold back, and directly asked Sun Jinrong, "Jinrong, how much of the adhesive you ordered is left? Check immediately. We have a batch of foreign trade orders that need to be fitted with brooches, you should know about this, right? There’s only one more week until the delivery date, how much has been produced so far?"

Sun Jinrong didn’t know.

She truly didn’t know and hadn’t paid attention to it.

After all, it was for their own factory’s goods, just produce them and hand them over.

Lian Xiang looked at Sun Jinrong incredulously, "Jinrong, you can’t possibly be unaware of even this, can you?"

Angered and embarrassed, Sun Jinrong retorted, "What’s all this about, one after another firing at me? Is it because you’re unhappy that I’m meddling in your business? If you want to drive me away, just say it openly, why put on such an act after another?"

Old Mrs. Song was not provoked, but instead said with a sneer, "Sun Jinrong, quit your nonsense. You are the director; if I don’t come to you, should I go to Secretary Wang? Can I even find her? With the way you’re acting, how can you say such things?"
