"Old Yan, you've been calculating all your life and still got three highs. You have to be careful about your diet in the future." Li Jiandong teased Yan Fugui.

"Look, the older you get, the younger you become. Look at me, none of the parts of my body are working anymore."

Yan Fugui sometimes really envies Li Jiandong.

The two people are obviously of similar age, but the other person is very healthy while I am full of diseases.

What he couldn't understand the most was that after all his life of planning, his family conditions were still not as good as others.

"Old Yan, you are too calculating. If you calculate less, you will be younger."

Li Jiandong said with a smile
"Yeah, from now on I won't be so calculating. It's good to live life as it comes."

Yan Fugui understood it too late. If he had understood it earlier, his child wouldn't be so far away from him.

Usually, they just give themselves some symbolic money, some pocket money and retirement money, and then they never care about these parents again.

"If you had done this earlier, you would have had children and grandchildren around you by now, but it's not too late to realize it now."

Li Jiandong shook his head and said to his old friend.

"Doctor Jiandong said I have to stay in the hospital for a few more days, so I can't go to the cosmetics factory to keep an eye on it. You go and keep an eye on it."

Yan Fugui said that he would no longer scheme, but he was still thinking about his business.

"You, you just said you would stop calculating, but now you are thinking about business. Don't worry, I'm here to take care of the cosmetics factory." Li Jiandong said helplessly.

Yan Fugui smiled and thought that maybe this was his fate.

I worry about my business and my money every day. I live my life for money.

"Okay, take good care of yourself. I'll come see you in the evening. I really need to go back to the factory to take a look."

Li Jiandong had indeed not been back to the factory for a long time.

As soon as I returned to the factory, I found out that a batch of cosmetics had been stolen.

"Li, you finally have a leader. I don't know why we lost a batch of cosmetics these days."

One of the responsible persons saw it and Li Huaiming spoke directly.

“How could the cosmetics be lost? Don’t we always give them to customers after they are produced?” Li Jiandong found it very strange.

"I don't know why our customers have cancelled their cooperation and our cosmetics have been lost one after another." The person in charge reported the situation to Li Jiandong.

"Didn't you call the police?"

Li Jiandong found it very strange. How could he not call the police for such a thing?

“Captain Jia went with you to rescue the locust plague. No one is taking care of this matter at all.” The supervisor said, feeling a little dizzy and tired.

As the factory director and the supervisor of the factory, I must take responsibility for such a big thing.

"So the second and third uncles haven't come in all these days?"

Li Jiandong was particularly puzzled because his second and third uncles had not told him about this matter.

"Mr. Li, we are not afraid of you laughing at us. We all know the tempers of the second and third uncles. We are really afraid that speaking out about this matter will make us bear more responsibility. We really can't afford to pay for it, so we have been suppressing this matter."

The supervisor tells the truth.

"I understand you. Second and Third Uncles only care about their own interests. Once this happens, they will definitely ask you to pay compensation, and you will definitely not be able to afford it."

When Li Jiandong got home, he wanted to solve the problem when it happened instead of holding anyone responsible.

But the second and third uncles only know how to hold people accountable.

In order to protect their own interests, these people are very scared and are unwilling to say anything.

"Don't worry, I will handle this matter. It has nothing to do with you."

Li Jiandong felt that it must be because of an insider that the lost cosmetics must have been taken away by her previous cooperative users.

This is why the customers who cooperate with us no longer purchase goods from the factory.

Because they got the goods from the factory at a very low price, there was no need to go to the factory to get the goods.
"I'm sorry, Chief Engineer Li, I am responsible for this matter. I know my salary for the next year is not enough to compensate you, but I just want to do my part." The supervisor lowered his head and was willing not to take any salary for a year.

"This matter has nothing to do with you. Although you have a certain responsibility and did not take good care of the child, I cannot ask you to pay compensation. You are also from a small family and need to support your family."

Li Jiandong said with a smile.

There are indeed many people like this leader who are willing to work hard for him.

No one would be willing to work for leaders like the second and third uncles.

Because they only care about their own interests, they are evil capitalists.

"That's how I'd feel bad."

If you frown, you feel that this matter is entirely your responsibility.

"It has nothing to do with you. As our business grows, it's inevitable that there will be traitors in the factory. Gather everyone and let's hold a meeting."

Li Jiandong said with a smile, not blaming the supervisor at all

The supervisor was very grateful to Li Jiandong.

"I called everyone to this meeting today because a lot of cosmetics were lost in our factory. Every batch was lost, and the orders were also lost. It is obvious that there is a traitor in our team." Li Jiandong told the truth.

"I think the traitor is clear to himself."

"For the next period of time, everyone should supervise each other and find this traitor. Otherwise, the cosmetics factory will not be able to continue operating and you will have to find new jobs."

"The treatment you get in my cosmetics factory is something you won't find anywhere else."

"Does this traitor really want to cut off his own escape route?"

Every word Li Jiandong said was sharp.

Everyone kept their heads down and kept silent, making it impossible to tell who the traitor was.

"From today on, I will arrange a few people to take turns guarding the warehouse. I want to see how he can ship out the cosmetics."

Li Jiandong is decisive and resolute in doing things.

Since these people want to destroy his cosmetics factory, he must catch the traitor.

"I hope you can understand that your honor is closely related to the cosmetics factory. If the cosmetics factory goes bankrupt, where can you get cosmetics to cooperate with others?"

"But I was really envious of you insiders at the time. You were able to snatch away my clients and rob my cosmetics factory."

Li Jiandong sneered a few times, making everyone present shudder.

Everyone knows how powerful Li Huaiming is. As long as he wants to catch the traitor, he will be able to catch him.

I originally thought that only the second and third uncles were in charge, and they would not report this matter to the higher authorities for fear of taking responsibility, but I didn't expect Li Jiandong to come back.

"Chief Engineer Li, what are you talking about? Can't it be someone from outside? We all know that the interests of the cosmetics factory are closely related to our interests. How dare we steal products?"

"You held this meeting for us, which made us feel very uncomfortable. Isn't this doubting all of us?"

One of the employees stood up and said.

Li Jiandong sneered, "I doubt you. I held this meeting not because I doubt you, but because I hope we can unite against the enemy and work together to catch this enemy."

"And all of you here are in the best position to get close to cosmetics. Shouldn't I be suspicious of you?"

"You think it's honorable to steal from the company."

Li Jiandong's words were so powerful that no one dared to say anything more. "Okay, Chief Engineer Li, don't be angry. We also feel uncomfortable and expressed our thoughts."

Another employee stood up and quickly comforted Li Jiandong.

The employee who just stood up to cause trouble made Li Jiandong very suspicious, thinking that he might be the traitor.

Maybe there are only one or two insiders in this factory, and the rest are outsiders.

It was the collaboration of the insiders and outsiders that made this thing a success.

But what I need to do now is to go to the previous cooperative manufacturers to see who they are cooperating with.

"Chief Engineer Li, you are here."

The manager of a hotel saw Li Jiandong coming and hurried over to shake his hand.

"Manager Zhang, you don't have to be so polite to me. I heard that your hotel no longer cooperates with our cosmetics factory, but I don't know whose cosmetics you use."

Li Jiandong seems to be so sharp and speaks directly about everything.

Manager Zhang smiled awkwardly. "Chief Engineer Li, you can't blame us. Our hotel also has costs. If there are cheap products, why don't we buy them? And these cheap products are all from regular manufacturers."

"Really? What you call a regular manufacturer is what is produced in my cosmetics factory, right?"

Li Jiandong had to ask sharply, leaving Manager Zhang at a loss as to how to answer.

"Manager Zhang, what are you talking about? How can you say that? It is indeed the product produced by your cosmetics factory, but you sold it to the supplier at a low price, didn't you?"

"The reason why we don't cooperate with you but with suppliers is because the suppliers give us a lower price. Your profit is too high and I can't accept it." Manager Zhang told the truth.

"Manager Zhang, I came here this time to ask if you have any plans to purchase goods from suppliers recently? Our prices are out of control. The price the supplier sells to you is even lower than my cost price, so I must find out who the traitor is."

Li Jiandong stated the purpose of his visit today.

"Chief Engineer Li, it's not that I won't help you. But if this traitor is really caught, will we have to purchase goods at a high cost again?" Manager Zhang had his own considerations.

"It seems that this traitor is already panicking and has informed you in advance."

"It's okay, Manager Zhang, you don't have to tell me, but I won't produce cosmetics anymore, and I'm afraid you won't be able to get the goods from the agent by then."

Li Jiandong decided to burn his boats, because only by doing so could he make the traitor surface.

He didn't believe that these hotels really didn't want to take the goods.

"Chief Engineer Li, if you are like this, how can we cooperate in the future?"

It was obvious that Manager Zhang was very anxious. If there were really no products left, how would they put makeup on the waitresses?

How can we provide guest room cosmetics?

At that time, it will affect the normal operation of their hotel.

"Chief Engineer Li, if you continue to do this, how can we cooperate in the future?" Manager Zhang told the truth.

"Now that you are no longer cooperating with us, you are no longer of any value to us, so there is no need for me to spend my own money to help others."

Li Jiandong spoke with indignation.

Manager Zhang was somewhat moved, but still unwilling to say who was working with him.

In fact, people in the business world are trustworthy.

Manager Zhang has already promised not to disclose the information to Li Jiandong, so naturally he won't say it.

"Chief Engineer Li, please don't make it difficult for me. I really can't say it." Manager Zhang was particularly embarrassed.

Li Jiandong shook his head helplessly. Since these people were already in collusion with each other, he couldn't blame himself.

"Since Manager Zhang refuses to tell me, it doesn't matter. I have my own way to catch the traitor."

Li Jiandong does have plenty of ways, but he is not afraid of the traitor this time.

Because there are so many people involved this time, Li Jiandong can't do anything to them.

As the saying goes, punishment does not punish the masses. Li Jiandong will at most warn them, but he will not do anything to them.

"Chief Engineer Li, don't be angry, I'll arrange it at noon."

Manager Zhang knew that the person who provided him with the discounted products might not have any products in the future.

But for the hotel's reputation and long-term development, they must use cosmetics and will definitely cooperate with Li Jiandong in the future.

"No need. Since Manager Zhang has other partners, Li will not bother you anymore."

Li Jiandong left heartlessly.

"Manager, if we do this, we won't be unable to buy cosmetics in the future, right?"

The secretary was a little anxious. They all knew Li Jiandong's working style. He might really stop the cosmetics factory when he returned. What should they do then? "

In fact, Manager Zhang was also worried, but there was nothing he could do.

After all, I have saved a lot of money over such a long period of time, and I can't betray that person no matter what.

"We'll talk about it later. We'll take it one step at a time. Now is not the time to tell the truth."

Manager Zhang lit a cigar and spoke with his eyes slightly narrowed.

It is indeed not the right time yet, he cannot tell anyone.

What we can do now is to buy all the cosmetics from the middlemen and hold on as long as we can.

"Go contact that middleman. We want whatever inventory he has."

Preparing for a rainy day is the best solution that Manager Zhang can think of.

"Yes, but even if the manager buys them all, we won't last long."

The secretary still reminded Manager Zhang.

Manager Zhang sighed, not knowing what to do.

If there are no cosmetics in the future, I won’t be able to continue this sutra.

"Try to contact the cosmetics factory in Hong Kong. Maybe we still have a chance."

Manager Zhang thought of Hong Kong. Indeed, there were cosmetics factories everywhere in Hong Kong, so there would be no shortage of products.

"Manager, I heard that this boss of the Hong Kong cosmetics industry is Mr. Li's apprentice. He probably won't cooperate with us."

The secretary is well-informed and feels that the hotel’s products may not be sufficient in the future.

Manager Zhang felt a little regretful. If he had told the truth just now, maybe he could still cooperate with Li Jiandong in the future.

But now it is tantamount to digging one's own grave.

Li Jiandong doesn't trust so many partners. Is there no one willing to tell him the truth?
However, Li Jiandong visited several hotels and talked to several partners, but they all refused to tell him the truth.

"Mr. Li, your company's internal affairs have nothing to do with us. We don't want to get involved."

The manager of the other hotel also declined to say.

Li Jiandong could understand them, but it was also a bit ironic that not a single partner was biased towards him. It was really sad.

I don't know how the middleman did it, stealing the product without making any noise?
"It doesn't matter. You don't have to tell me. I won't ask. I have plenty of ways to find the traitor."

Li Jiandong didn't believe that he couldn't find the traitor with his own ability. (End of this chapter)
