Xu Nianhua was well aware that these two hundred bottles of chili sauce, though they seemed to have caused a substantial financial loss now, brought benefits that were beyond monetary measurement.
This time, even if the rumors were eventually cleared, the reputation of the Chili Sauce Factory would still inevitably suffer some damage. What she needed to do now was to salvage the reputation of the chili sauce and at the same time, take the Chili Sauce Factory a step further.
"Nianhua, we shouldn’t show partiality. We sell our chili sauce not only in South City and Gaoliang County but also in other counties and cities. I suggest that we send one hundred bottles of chili sauce free of charge to each county and city," said Pei Yicheng, who had been quiet until now, firmly standing by Xu Nianhua’s side.
It wouldn’t just be two hundred bottles of chili sauce to give away free of charge—if Xu Nianhua wanted to give away two thousand bottles, he wouldn’t even blink.
Moreover, Pei Yicheng wasn’t foolish; with just a little contemplation, he could understand Xu Nianhua’s intentions.
Pei Yicheng’s gaze towards Xu Nianhua was filled with admiration and pride.
"Brother Cheng, you’ve thought everything through," Xu Nianhua’s eyes brightened instantly.
"You two, can you really be in charge of the Chili Sauce Factory?" Xu Yong added to the conversation, turning his eyes to Ji Ying next to him, as Ji Ying was the actual director of the Chili Sauce Factory.
Ji Ying affirmed, looking towards Pei Yicheng and Xu Nianhua, feeling increasingly certain that Pei Yicheng and her daughter made a perfect match.
If the timing had been different, Ji Ying would have definitely taken the opportunity to ask Pei Yicheng if there was a girl he liked.
Ji Ying said with a smile, "Reporter Xu, in fact, he is the real major shareholder of the Chili Sauce Factory."
"Oh?" Xu Yong looked at Ji Ying in surprise, his gaze landing on Pei Yicheng, who had accompanied them the whole way. Although he had remarked that Pei Yicheng was handsome and aristocratic-looking and took great care of Xu Nianhua, he hadn’t thought much about it.
After all, the Xu siblings were outstanding themselves, and having such distinguished friends was normal. Moreover, he had a keen eye; the way Pei Yicheng looked at Xu Nianhua was extremely indulgent. If they weren’t a couple, Xu Yong would have been willing to cut off his head and use it as a stool.
However, Xu Yong wasn’t one to meddle in others’ affairs. After all, hadn’t he seen that even their own second brother didn’t interfere?
Xu Yong was simply amazed. He knew nothing else and said nothing, but in terms of mere appearance, the two of them indeed seemed to be a match made in heaven.
Xu Yong hadn’t expected that this man was actually the real major owner of the Chili Sauce Factory. Xu Yong said uncertainly, "But that’s not right, the legal person of your factory is Ji Ying."
"That’s just a name," Pei Yicheng said indifferently. Initially, when the Xu family wanted the Chili Sauce Factory to be in his name, he had declined. In his heart, he believed that the Chili Sauce Factory would thrive without him, just not as quickly as it had. Speaking of which, he felt that he had really gotten the better deal.
Pei Yicheng said respectfully, "Under Auntie Ji’s management, the Chili Sauce Factory is thriving. I’m just fortunate to be associated with it."
Pei Yicheng spoke very eloquently and with great respect towards Ji Ying.
Xu Yong noted down this matter and said, "Right, we’re going to visit the victims in the hospital."
Xu Yong’s words won everyone’s agreement, not only from the visitors from South City but also the neighbors who had just come to see what was happening. They all followed to the hospital.
Hu Aimei, worried that something might happen, took her two children to the hospital as well.
