Chapter 1370: Who’s There? (3)

Nian Xiaomu had no idea what had happened there. Once the board meeting ended, she rushed over to the factory.

Upon hearing that the factory would really be rebuilt, Manager Hong agitatedly kneeled down in front of Nian Xiaomu out of gratitude towards her.

“Manager Hong, get up off your knees quickly!”

Nian Xiaomu was so shocked by his sudden movement that she retreated two steps. When she finally came back to her senses, she hurriedly went forward to help him up.

“Grandfather respects all of you. All of you are considered my elders too. I only did what I should, you don’t have to be like this.”

“No… no, it’s different. Seeing how you’re willing to help us rebuild the factory, I’m thanking you on behalf of the few hundred workers here. Thanks to you, they’re able to keep this place and the skill our ancestors have passed on!”

Manager Hong was overwhelmed with emotion as he thanked her.

Nian Xiaomu raised her head and saw the hundred over workers who rushed over upon hearing the news. They were all looking at her gratefully with their reddened eyes.

Nian Xiaomu simply did not know what to say.

She had only done what she should have. If there were any thanks to be made, it was she who had to thank these workers for being willing to accompany her in the journey to protect the business her grandfather had left.

Since the fire had occurred, not one of the workers had caused any trouble over it.

They were all silently waiting for news, in hopes that the factory would be rebuilt.

Such cautious persistence would not be understood by one who had not personally experienced it.

Nian Xiaomu helped Manager Hong up and took two steps back. Looking at the workers before her, she hung her head down and gave them a deep bow.

“Vice-President Nian…”

Manager Hong was about to say something when Nian Xiaomu had already raised her head slowly. “The notice to rebuild the factory has already been issued. You still have more important things to do. The company agreed to let me rebuild the factory on the condition that it has to earn profits. You have to think of a way to ensure this.”

“I’ll definitely do my best!”

Manager Hong promised without any hesitation. He suddenly thought of something and added, “After the fire had been put out, I knew that there would be a possibility that the factory could be rebuilt, so the first thing I did was to check the facilities. I realized that only half of the factory production rooms had been destroyed, and they were all storage rooms. The facilities for the production line suffered very little destruction. As long as the production rooms can be rebuilt, the production line can be activated very quickly. I was just about to send my report to you!”

Upon hearing that the destruction was smaller than estimated and that reactivating the production line would be a quick process, Nian Xiaomu ecstatically dragged Manager Hong inside to check on the facilities.Read more chapter at vipnovel

When all the checking had been done, Nian Xiaomu instantly heaved a sigh of relief.

The fire had been targeted at the accounting office, so the majority of the fire was concentrated in that area. This allowed most of the equipment in the factory to be preserved.

When the technical officer had completely checked the equipment and ensured that it could continue to be used after it was repaired, the losses suffered by the factory were minimized by at least half!

“Right, there’s one more thing I would like to ask you.” After they were done checking the equipment, Nian Xiaomu thought of her aim of today’s visit and reached out to hold Manager Hong back.

After ensuring there was no one around them, she asked in a low voice, “Since you’re the manager, I want to know if you’ve any impression of what the finances of the factory were like.”

“This…” Manager Hong was stunned by her question and was just about to say he showed her the accounts when it came to him that the fire had burnt down the whole accounting office and the accounts were all gone.

“I only have a vague impression, I can’t recall the specific figures. But, I used to like noting down the accounts by hand. I might have some records in my notebook. I’ll find it for you!”

Just as Manager Hong had finished speaking, someone came looking for him and he could not get away.

Nian Xiaomu simply muttered, “Go and get busy. I’ll wait for you in the lounge.”
