Chapter 343 Excuses
When Manager Fan and Bi Qi walked into the house and smelled the pungent smell, their expressions changed again.
Then, they walked to the pile of materials. Their faces were so dark that ink could drip out.
The layman watched the show, while the expert watched out for the tricks! Any expert would know at a glance if there was anything wrong with the renovation materials.
Manager Fan immediately asked with a serious expression, “Old Bi, I remember saying that the materials used for this customer’s renovation have to be high-end environmentally-friendly green materials, right? Can you tell me what’s going on? Could it be that CEO Gu didn’t transfer the money to your company?”
If Bi Qi wasn’t his old friend, he would have punched him.
“Old Bi, is this the so-called best construction team?” Manager Fan gritted his teeth and asked. “No wonder you made CEO Gu angry!”
He had already promised Gu Qingming that he would contact the best renovation team for her.
In the end, after only a few days of renovation, he was slapped in the face.
Bi Qi’s expression was also very ugly.
He had indeed asked the best renovation team in the company to come over. He had also instructed his subordinates to do their best according to the customer’s requirements and prioritize service.
However, he never expected that the most outstanding team he mentioned would actually secretly cut corners and ruin the company’s reputation.
What was the most important thing for a businessman?
It was integrity!
Without an honest company, they would go bankrupt sooner or later.
The reason why the renovation company he founded was able to occupy a place in the industry was because of its reputation.
Bi Qi clenched his fists and ran out angrily. With a dark face, he shouted angrily at Master Zhang, “Zhang Dashan, what’s with that pile of materials?”
When Zhang Dashan saw Bi Qi appear, he panicked. However, he pretended not to know and asked, “President Bi, what’s going on?”
When CEO Bi heard this, he was so angry that his face turned green.
He said angrily, “Are you still pretending with me?”
He pointed his finger at the room and shouted sternly, “The client clearly asked for high-end environmentally-friendly green materials, but it seems more than half of the renovation materials are ordinary materials. Who are you bluffing? The client? Or me?”
Zhang Dashan’s expression suddenly became flustered. He immediately said, “President Bi, it’s not like that. Let me explain!”
CEO Bi nodded and said, “Alright, explain. I want to hear what you have to say.”
If this matter was not handled properly, it would definitely affect the company’s reputation.
Zhang Dashan was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to explain.
Was he to say that he saw that he was doing a renovation in the countryside and had crooked thoughts?
Environmentally-friendly green renovation materials were definitely more expensive than ordinary renovation materials. In particular, high-end environmentally-friendly materials were twice as expensive as ordinary materials.
Customers spent millions of dollars on this renovation, most of which was spent on this material.
When he brought his subordinates to measure and work out the quantity of materials to be used, he realized that the customer was an ordinary country bumpkin, so he had an idea.
While he was not in charge of purchasing the materials, he had colluded with the Purchasing Manager to switch out the materials.
They originally thought that these people were country bumpkins and did not have much knowledge. Hence, they would not be able to discover anything.
However, he did not expect to be seen through by a young lady and be exposed.
Zhang Dashan secretly took a deep breath and explained, “These materials were transported wrongly. They aren’t supposed to be used for renovation here. The supplier made a mistake. I called the supplier earlier and they said that they would transfer the materials over in the afternoon!”
However, he was secretly delighted. Fortunately, he was prepared!
If these materials go undetected, they would continue to use them.
If he was discovered, he could just say that he had made a mistake.
Of course, this was under the premise that he had discussed it with the purchasing manager and supplier in advance.
To the purchasing manager, if this matter went through, he would have an additional sum of money in his account. If it did not succeed, he would just say that there was a mistake. There was no loss.
To the supplier, the renovation company was their long-term customer. It could not afford to offend the purchasing manager of this company.
It was said that the purchasing manager was the brother-in-law of President Bi of the renovation company.
Therefore, they had secretly planned to fill their own pockets.
“Oh, do you mean that these ordinary materials are not used for renovation here?” President Bi asked calmly.
He was not a three-year-old child. If he wanted to fool him with such a small trick, he would really be getting worse.
Zhang Dashan said fearlessly, “That’s right. President Bi, if you don’t believe me, you can call the material supplier!”
“Hehe, very good!” President Bi sneered. “Zhang Dashan, you’ve determined that I can’t do anything to you, right?”
Judging from Zhang Dashan’s confident look, it was obvious that he had colluded with the supplier in advance. He even colluded with his brother-in-law.
At the thought of this, he immediately made a call. When the other party picked up, he suppressed his anger and said, “No matter where you are now, come to Stoneback Village immediately!”
After hanging up, he glared at Zhang Dashan fiercely with his sharp eyes. Then, he walked up to Gu Qingming and apologized sincerely. “I’m sorry, CEO Gu. It’s my negligence that caused you trouble! I’ll definitely handle this matter well and give you a satisfactory explanation!”
Gu Qingming nodded and said, “President Bi, I heard from Manager Fan that your company is the renovation company with the best credibility in the entire Pingyang County, so I hired your company Gu Qingming nodded and replied, “Alright, on account of how sincere you are, President Bi, I won’t pursue this matter for the to renovate. However, the construction team you sent seems to have deviated from your credibility?”
President Bi’s expression suddenly changed. He said, “CEO Gu, don’t worry. This is caused by my lack of discipline. I will definitely compensate you for your losses. I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer!”
This was clearly a problem in their company. Someone was just greedy. Gu Qingming was just a victim.
Gu Qingming nodded and replied, “Alright, on account of how sincere you are, President Bi, I won’t pursue this matter for the time being. But these people…”
She pointed at Zhang Dashan and the others and said coldly, “I don’t want them to appear here again.”
This meant that she didn’t want Zhang Dashan and the others to renovate her villa.
However, there was no change of company, which meant that Gu Qingming had already given Bi Qi enough respect.
Bi Qi naturally understood what Gu Qingming meant. He immediately said, “Don’t worry, they won’t appear in front of you again in the future!”
The expressions of Zhang Dashan and his men expressions changed drastically!
