Chapter 452

Zhou Andong chuckled, got up and poured a cup of tea for Du Chunlai: "Come, drink some tea and calm down."

Du Chunlai said irritably: "You can still laugh?"

"If I don't laugh, should I cry?" Zhou Andong said: "There's always a way when the car reaches the mountain. It's useless for you to be anxious now."

"Sigh!" Du Chunlai held the teacup and sat on the sofa, then sighed: "The car hasn't reached the mountain yet, and the road is already broken."

Zhou Andong asked: "Has the goods that Bawangsi promised to sell to me been shipped out?"

Du Chunlai said: "It was shipped yesterday noon. I contacted Bawangsi last night and was told that because of the snow, the truck was blocked in Panhe, right by the national highway, resting at a small inn. With the snow on the road melting today, it should arrive by tomorrow night no matter what."

Zhou Andong pondered for a moment: "To avoid long nights and many dreams, immediately send a truck to Panhe to bring the goods back."

Du Chunlai was stunned, then immediately said: "Okay, I'll send a truck over right away."

Zhou Andong said: "Has the payment been wired?"

Du Chunlai nodded: "It has been wired."

"Good!" Zhou Andong said: "Send more people. If the other party doesn't give the goods, just grab them for me."

Du Chunlai said somewhat incredulously: "No way, Gu Xiangjun is still quite credible."

Zhou Andong pointed to the newspaper on the desk: "Look!"

Du Chunlai picked up the newspaper: "Negotiated so fast?"

"So!" Zhou Andong tapped the table and said: "The current Bawangsi is no longer Gu Xiangjun's decision alone. If Coca-Cola objects, don't say the truck has reached Panhe; even if it reached our Jiangzhou, it might turn back."

Du Chunlai became anxious: "I'll arrange for people to pick up the goods immediately."

Zhou Andong said: "Remind them to pay attention to safety. Not only should you send more people, but also arrange two more trucks. With such heavy snow, if a truck gets stuck, there will be trucks to rescue it."

"Okay!" Du Chunlai left hurriedly, first going to the security section to find Yao Jun and give instructions, then going to the logistics section.

Yao Jun shouted: "Old Kai, Xu Ziwai, Dalu, Han Chang, there's a mission, come with me."

"Chang Kezhang!" Zhao Huilin and Niu Hongxi ran out: "Take us with you."

These two guys are very active in whatever they do now. They come very early every morning, clean the office first, and fill the thermos with hot water.

When everyone arrived at the office, hot tea had already been brewed in everyone's teacup. In these few short days, they had gained everyone's recognition.

"Let's go!" Yao Jun nodded. It didn't matter if there were two more; if they were willing to follow, let them follow.

After Du Chunlai arranged the trucks, Yao Jun also arrived.

"Factory Director Du, I will lead the people there myself."

"Okay!" Du Chunlai said: "It's better if the other party can hand over the goods smoothly. If they don't hand them over, grab them even if you have to."

"Don't worry!" Yao Jun said: "I will definitely bring the goods back."

Du Chunlai said: "They are resting at a small inn by the national highway within Panhe. I don't know the specific name. After you arrive, look for their truck."

Yao Jun nodded, turned around and said: "Get in the car!"

Panhe City, the Fuman Yuan Restaurant by the national highway is just a circle of bungalows. In front is the restaurant, next to it is a gate, inside is a large courtyard, and the surrounding bungalows are the inn.

Two drivers and a young man from the sales section were playing cards in a room, with a pile of small change in front of them.

"Beep-beep-beep..."

A middle-aged man with a full beard said: "Xiao Huang, your pager is ringing."

The sales section youth, Xiao Huang, reached out and picked up the pager placed on the side: "It's from the factory, I'll go return the call."

After speaking, Xiao Huang got off the heated brick bed, put on his shoes and ran to the front courtyard of the inn, greeted the landlady, came to the bar, picked up the phone and dialed back to the factory.

"Chang Kezhang, what's the matter?"

A man's voice came from the receiver: "Xiao Huang, don't send the goods to Jiangzhou anymore. Wait for the snow on the road to melt, then come back immediately."

Xiao Huang was stunned: "What happened?"

The section chief said: "Coca-Cola notified us to prohibit the sale of concentrated fruit juice. Even the goods that have been shipped must be recalled. Fortunately, there is this heavy snow, otherwise it would be really troublesome."

Xiao Huang didn't quite understand: "Why prohibit the sale?"

"Who knows!" The section chief also seemed to be full of anger: "Anyway, now the soda factory is decided by foreigners. Whatever they tell us to do, we just do it."

"Alright!" Xiao Huang agreed: "Once the snow melts, we'll go back."

"Then that's it." The section chief hung up the phone.

Xiao Huang returned to the room, took off his shoes and climbed onto the heated brick bed, stretching his feet into the quilt: "It's damn cold outside."

"What did the factory want you for?" The bearded man asked.

Xiao Huang said: "Told us to go back, don't need to send the goods to Jiangzhou anymore."

Another young man asked in surprise: "Why not send them?"

"Coca-Cola notified the factory to prohibit the sale of concentrated fruit juice to the outside." Xiao Huang picked up the cigarette in front of him and lit it: "Damn, now our factory is decided by foreigners. If they don't let us sell, we can't sell."

The bearded man smiled: "Forget it, as long as they pay us."

The snow was too heavy, and the road was very difficult to travel. It took Yao Jun and the others more than two hours to travel less than 100 kilometers, and it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon.

The important thing is that they must return before dark, because the temperature will be very low at night, and the newly melted snow will freeze, making it even harder to travel.

"Chang Kezhang, we're here. This stretch, about a kilometer long, is all restaurants and inns."

Old Kai parked the car on the side of the road, and the van and three light trucks following behind also stopped.

Yao Jun got out of the car: "Ziwai, you drive and take a few people to the front, we'll split up and look."

"Okay!" Xu Ziwai, Han Chang, and three drivers got into the car, drove a distance forward, and then parked the car on the side of the road.

A group of people started splitting up to look in every restaurant and the parking lot in the courtyard.

Twenty minutes later, Xu Ziwai drove over and said excitedly: "Found it, it's right there at the Fuman Yuan Restaurant."

Yao Jun's spirits lifted. He gathered everyone together and got into the car.

"Let's go!"

Arriving at the Fuman Yuan Restaurant, they drove directly into the courtyard parking lot. As soon as he got out of the car, Yao Jun saw a large Jiefang truck with "Bawangsi Soda Factory" sprayed on the door.

"Bang-bang-bang..."

Xu Ziwai raised his hand and slammed heavily on the truck door. The commotion was quite loud, immediately attracting the attention of the guests staying at the inn.

"Hey, what are you doing?" Old Huang, the bearded man, and the other young man ran out wearing cotton-padded coats.

Yao Jun asked with a chuckle: "From Bawangsi Soda Factory?"
