The little dumpling is five and a half years old, which made his father so angry that his head split

The warehouse was locked.

Li Tian did not let Du Juan open the door.

He frowned as he looked at the entry and exit log hanging on the door.

The entry and exit records are so conspicuously displayed outside. Do people consciously record everything clearly after entering and exiting?

If something goes wrong in a warehouse, is it possible to find the person responsible?

What's even more infuriating is that there's a small kitchen right next to the warehouse.

Water was still boiling on the honeycomb briquette stove.

How can there be open flames around the warehouse?

Even if it's not next to the warehouse, there are flammable materials everywhere in the garment factory, which is too dangerous.

Li Tian shook her head and left.

There were two tailors cutting the fabric, and they seemed to be busy with their own tasks.

But when Li Tian passed by, the two masters were chatting quite enthusiastically.

Don't you get distracted?

The sewing workshop occupied several main rooms, where ten sewing machines rhythmically clattered in harmony.

A scene of bustling activity.

But in reality, although everyone was busy with their hands, they were still chatting, and some were even eating sunflower seeds.

Li Tian was puzzled as to how these people could multitask.

It would be a miracle if such a lax work style could produce efficiency.

Moreover, accidents are prone to occur.

The ironing station was also rather perfunctory and sloppy; the person just gave the clothes a quick iron and then folded them up.

Li Tian shook her head and returned to Du Juan's office.

Du Juan hung up the phone and poured Li Tian a glass of water with a smile.

"You're done touring so quickly?"

Li Tian accepted it with a smile.

"I didn't go in and disturb everyone's work; I just looked around from the outside."

"Auntie, how are things going? Judging from everyone's condition, we should be able to operate normally, right?"

Since they had invited someone to point out the flaws, Dujuan wouldn't hide anything.

"It's running normally, but there's much less work than two years ago. We used to have no days off, but now we get half a day off every week."

"Profits are getting lower and lower; at this rate, I don't know how long we can sustain this."

Du Juan, who has been exposed to firsthand information for many years, is quite sensitive to such matters.

Li Tian nodded and said.

"Auntie, as more and more private factories emerge, competition will intensify, and survival of the fittest will be inevitable."

"Our backwardness is not just in equipment, but mainly in management philosophy, that is, the factory system."

"Fundamentally, the key is to first motivate everyone, improve production efficiency, and reduce costs. Only when the company's profits are high can it introduce equipment, expand production capacity, receive large orders, and develop in a positive direction."

"Only when the factory is doing well can everyone have stable jobs."

Dujuan nodded repeatedly.

After Li Tian explained it to me, my thoughts became clear instantly.

But the thought of reform gave Du Juan a headache.

"Tian Tian, ​​our factory is under the jurisdiction of the local street committee, so it's not entirely up to me to make decisions..."

After looking around, Li Tian was no longer prepared to invest here, nor did she expect to make any money from it.

But when entrusted with a task, one must be loyal to that person.

Now that she's here, she should naturally point out the problems she's seen.

"Aunt Du, I'll prepare some materials for you when I get back."

Hopefully, this will give you some inspiration.

Du Juan nodded.

"Then I'll have to trouble you, Tian Tian. I'm a doctor, but I can't heal myself. There are just too many things to handle, and I can't grasp the key points."

Li Tian looked intently at Du Juan.

"Auntie, I believe everyone comes out to work to earn money, not to visit and chat."

"For the sake of the factory's development and to earn more money, they should be able to understand and be willing to cooperate with any reforms."

"However, people who are used to a comfortable life may not be able to adapt to a tense pace all at once."

"Besides, there's a mother-in-law at the factory, so you, the factory manager, are probably caught in the middle."

Du Juan smiled and patted Li Tian on the shoulder.

This child has a sharp eye and gets to the heart of the matter very quickly.

"This factory represents my hard work and gave me a chance when I was going through the toughest time. I won't give it up easily."

People need to have something to strive for in life.

Money is only one aspect.

Du Juan has her own ideas, which is good.

With her current abilities and the Yuan family's background, it wouldn't be difficult for her to find an easy and respectable job, but she still chooses to stay in this small factory, which is quite remarkable.

Li Tian admired her loyalty and sense of justice.

"Aunt Du is kind and righteous, but you also need to be resourceful to manage a factory well."

"You bring prosperity to the factory, and these workers will naturally benefit as well."

Du Juan smiled, her gaze becoming more resolute.

"Tian Tian, ​​why don't you sit here and read the newspaper? Auntie will treat you to a nice lunch out."

Li Tian smiled and shook her head.

Sitting here is so boring, she doesn't want to.

"Auntie, I can go back by myself, don't worry about me."

Du Juan was a little worried. Although she had been running all over the mountains and fields when she was ten years old, big cities were different.

There were many people and the traffic was chaotic.

"Go back by yourself? Are you sure you can manage? I'll take you."

Du Juan stood up and took out her car keys from her pocket.

Li Tian smiled and pushed her into a chair.

I finally managed to get out on my own, and I wanted to ride my bike around Beijing.

She was too young before, and her family wouldn't let her out.

She's just riding her bike around, what problem could there be!

No problem at all.

"Auntie, I know the way, I can definitely get home by myself, so you just focus on your work."

Du Juan, being a mother herself and having a son as old as Yuan Jun, had a good idea of ​​Li Tian's ulterior motives.

"Tian Tian, ​​don't go to places where there are few people, don't meddle in other people's business, and be sure to go home as soon as possible. If something happens to you, Auntie won't be able to explain it to your family."

"Call me when you get home."

Du Juan wrote down the office phone number for Li Tian.

Li Tian took it and nodded solemnly.

She didn't want anything to happen, and with her experience traversing the rainforest, nothing would happen to her.

Du Juan saw Li Tian off and watched her get into the car before returning to the factory.

Li Tian didn't have any particular place she wanted to go; she just wanted to look around along the way.

The weather at the end of January wasn't very warm, but it wasn't cold on sunny days either.

Li Tian wrapped her head with a scarf, leaving only her eyes and nose exposed.

She was also wearing cotton gloves.

Riding a bike and stretching my legs, I didn't feel cold at all.

They left a bit early, and there were no stalls along the way yet. But now, quite a few stalls have gradually appeared on the roadside.

One section of the road became completely congested and narrow.

Li Tian wasn't in a hurry, so she simply got out of the car.

When I came across a vendor selling candied hawthorns, I immediately took out my money and bought a skewer.

The hawthorns coated with rock sugar are crystal clear and crunchy when you bite into them.

It's sweet and sour, and a little cool—it's really invigorating.

Li Tian was extremely satisfied with her meal.

I wasn't hungry at first, but the aroma of jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) made my mouth water, so I just took out my money and bought a set.

Steal the floating life for half a day.

Li Tian decided that she would definitely set aside half a day on weekends to go out and explore from now on.

She needs to get to know her capital city better.
