Makes a Move!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>_1 “General Manager Chu, there’s a problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue, who had been working on some documents, looked up and put down her pen, her eyes resting on the serious-faced Qin Maoyuan who had hurried over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She smiled gently, “Director Qin, have a seat and let’s talk.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan looked at the composed Chu Jiayue, and his anxiety unconsciously subsided a bit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although this young and pretty CEO was young, she was more than capable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not only did she handle the company’s internal affairs seamlessly, but she also resolved all external troubles cleanly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a short period, the previously chaotic pharmaceutical factory had been entirely reorganized, and everything had become orderly and disciplined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now everyone in the factory, from the management team to workers, held Chu Jiayue in awe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Our raw material supply has been compromised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They suddenly told us that because of various reasons, they can’t provide us with goods…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue asked, “Just one supplier?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Many of them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan anxiously explained, “When the first supplier had a problem, our Procurement Department immediately contacted them and asked the other two suppliers to deliver in advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But they said they couldn’t supply due to production capacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I feel this is not normal, as they were eager to supply more to us before and they have a lot of inventory.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue immediately understood: “Is someone targeting us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan nodded, “I asked some acquaintances among the suppliers, and someone has told them not to provide us with raw materials anymore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This person also said they’d cover all their losses.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue calmly asked, “Do you know who it is?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan hesitated, looking somewhat conflicted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue smiled, “The Chu family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan nodded and tentatively asked, “GM Chu, what’s your relationship with the Chu family?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue candidly replied, “I’m part of the Chu family, but after my father’s unsuccessful competition with the current Chu family head, I left the Chu family and went to Pingjiang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seems that some Chu family members don’t want to see me return to Linhai, so they’re using some tactics against me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan finally understood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, this matter involved disputes among wealthy families.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew about the Chu family, one of the top powerful families in Linhai.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a factory director, he could manage the factory well, but handling this kind of situation was impossible for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Chu Jiayue, can you handle this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue asked, “Besides these three suppliers, can we find any other suppliers?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or find suppliers from other provinces?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan responded with a bitter smile, “Our opponents are prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’ve cut off our most crucial catalyst raw materials supplier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There are few suppliers of this kind in the country, and their production capacities are limited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if we were to establish contact with alternative suppliers now, it would take at least one to two months to receive the goods, and we can’t afford to wait.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Besides, with the Chu family’s power, even if we were to get the raw materials from suppliers outside the city, they could easily cause trouble for us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue nodded, “So, to solve the problem, we have to re-establish normal supply relationships with these three suppliers?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan looked worried, “We initially chose these three suppliers because of their proximity and the special nature of their products.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All of them are in Linhai, which means they could be influenced by the Chu family…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue calmly said, “Please compile detailed information on the three suppliers for me, and I’ll see if I can find a solution.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright, General Manager Chu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qin Maoyuan left with a worried expression, knowing he couldn’t interfere or help in this matter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All he could do was his job and leave the rest to Chu Jiayue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Qin Maoyuan left, a trace of worry appeared on Chu Jiayue’s calm face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She then picked up the phone and called Lin Chen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Chu family made a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They cut off a crucial raw material supply for the factory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The three suppliers are all delaying delivery for various reasons…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen said with a laugh, “It’s normal for them to make a move.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they did nothing, that would be strange.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue asked, “So, what should we do now?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Chen comforted her, “You sort out the relevant information for me and I’ll have someone look into it, see if we can solve the problem.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue let out a sigh of relief, “I’ve already asked someone to prepare the documents.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’ll send it to you later.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After hanging up the phone, Chu Jiayue stared out the window, lost in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She felt utterly helpless in the face of such underhanded tactics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She instinctively thought of Lin Chen, believing he could solve the problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Had this become a habit?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How much time had passed since she had started relying on Lin Chen?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What else could she do?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t do nothing and let Lin Chen fight alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chu Jiayue pondered for a while before making a decision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She picked up the phone, “Grandpa, Lin Chen and I are already facing the Chu family.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is our decisive battle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You told me about that favor you’re owed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I think it’s time to use it…”\u003C\u002Fp>",894,"2026-06-06T01:51:32.142Z",1,"novelbin.me","88cb378ba84ed786c71283327a54c4c4930cdbf79ed43867754acaf0fdd29751","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-241","urban-peerless-expert-chapter-239",4071,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Furban-peerless-expert-cover.jpg"]
