Of course, they could also pocket all the money from the sales and not pay their employees.
However, this could trigger an employee riot, which would have even worse consequences. So, if we want to have the best of both worlds, there is only one way to solve the problem: sell the goods at a high price!
"You, all of you shut up!"
Qu Tai was furious as he pointed at the people in front of him.
"Do you know that the business is now at its wit's end?"
"There are nearly a thousand people in the factory, and they haven't been paid for at least three months!"
"If this drags on any longer, you might have to sleep with your eyes open in the middle of the night, wondering if someone will break your windows. Do you really think these factory workers are without temper? With so many people owed wages, what are you going to do if things get out of hand?"
"Huh? Who will take responsibility then? It'll be me, the factory manager! Do you really think I'm stupid?"
Qu Tai looked at the crowd in front of him and spoke in an almost cursing tone.
Was Qu Tai really stupid? Qu Tai was definitely not stupid. Before taking over as factory director, he already knew it was a mess, and he also knew that Tao Changji had given him the position of factory director simply to shirk responsibility and protect himself.
But he still resolutely took on this mess. Why? Just because he called Tao Changji "Dad," and because Tao Changji was his wife's father. It was that simple.
He had already been betrayed by his son-in-law. Qu Tai couldn't possibly stand by and watch his father-in-law go to jail because of someone else, could he?
So he took on this mess, partly out of a clear conscience, and partly to see if he could find a way to resolve the issue and mitigate its impact.
What he never expected was that he had finally established a cooperative relationship with Lin Fan, and just when he could see that the employees' wages could be paid and the factory had a chance to breathe, this group of short-sighted people in front of him were still fixated on their immediate interests and unwilling to give in.
Especially Tao Changji, didn't he ever consider his own feelings as the factory director? This kind of behavior made Qu Tai very disheartened.
“Dad, if we sell this batch of goods at a low price, we can barely recover our costs, but at least we can pay our employees’ wages.”
"Although we won't earn a single penny, we won't bear any legal responsibility, and we can suppress the negative impact of this incident."
"But what about you? You dumped this mess on me, and if anything goes wrong, my factory will be responsible, and you can live a carefree life. Have you ever thought about what will happen to me? What will happen to my family if something happens to me? Have you thought about your daughter? Have you thought about your grandson?"
Qu Tai pointed at Tao Changji and spoke with an indignant expression.
"And you guys, you are indeed in the factory's management, and you value your own interests, so I can understand why you came here with my dad to cause trouble. After all, we're out here to make money, not to do charity."
“Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. If the factory closes down and all the workers are laid off, who will you lead? Who will you make money from?”
"In short, if things escalate, I, the factory manager, will be the one who bears legal responsibility. So it doesn't matter if you disagree, as long as I agree. I am the factory manager now, and I am the person with the final say on all decisions in the factory as stipulated by law. If I say I'll sell, then I can sell. Your objections are invalid."
Qu Tai slammed his hand on the table, a resolute look on his face.
Upon hearing Qu Tai's words, the others around you looked at each other, their expressions turning somewhat unpleasant.
Tao Changji, in particular, was surprised that Qu Tai not only refuted his words forcefully, but also made such a sarcastic remark.
She wanted to refute him, but she didn't know how to start, because what Qu Tai said was reasonable and true.
Why did he give up the factory director position to him? Others might not know, but didn't he know in his heart? He simply wanted to make his other son-in-law take on some responsibility.
But there's no such thing as a perfect solution in this world. Since he gave up the position of factory director, he also gave up the decision-making power within the factory.
Currently, the factory director's position is clearly written in black and white on the legal documents by Qu Tai. If he insists on giving it to Lin Fan, then no one else can interfere. He is the legal representative of the factory and has all decision-making power.
"You! Sigh, you unfilial son, you didn't even realize you were being deceived."
“I think this kid must have found out about the difficulties our factory is facing from somewhere, so he came here to take advantage of our situation. He definitely needs the goods we have, and as long as we stick to our word, we can definitely sell them at a high price.”
"And you, on the other hand, have been taking this kid's side the whole time, speaking up for him. Fine, fine, you're right, we're all fools, okay?"
“Now that this ugly thing has been seen by this guy, he will be even less likely to raise the price of the goods. In short, I will never agree to sell the goods at a low price. If you insist on selling, as you said, we can't stop you. After all, you are the factory manager.”
"But if the workers find out that this has caused a commotion or there are any other consequences later, we won't take responsibility. You'll have to find a way to bear the consequences yourself."
Hearing this old man speculating about him to his face, Lin Fan smiled but didn't say anything more.
To put it bluntly, even if you know I'm here to take advantage of your misfortune, what can you do about it?
Times change, and that's how business is. You can't rely on personal relationships. Who told you to give others an opportunity to take advantage of your factory's troubles?
Moreover, Lin Fan is not the kind of despicable person who would do anything to make money. He simply lowered the price of the first month's orders. As long as he could buy more goods at a low price, make them into clothes and sell them, forming a cash flow cycle, he could naturally raise the price for them later!
From this perspective, I am not only not unethical, but I am also the savior of this factory!
Without our own resources, all the goods in these factories would rot in the warehouse. This is not an exaggeration, after all, the market share is limited.
In the city and other surrounding areas, there are naturally no extra orders or markets for them to absorb these surplus goods.
Unless a new company like Lin Fan emerges at this time and you are willing to buy their goods, their goods may not be able to be sold. But these days, how many people are willing to start their own businesses and do clothing business?
