Gu Qingming accepted Bi Qi’s apology and exchanged the materials for 100,000 dollars as compensation. Coupled with the change of construction team, this matter was considered over for her.
In the eyes of people in the business world, Gu Qingming’s actions might not be too benevolent.
According to the rules, if there was a matter of stealing materials, no matter what the reason was, it was because there was a problem with the integrity of the renovation company.
Without integrity, who would dare to do business? Wouldn’t they be scammed?
Of course, it was another matter if one was willing to be scammed.
In Gu Qingming’s opinion, the CEO of this company had also been tricked by his subordinates. Coupled with his sincere apology and compensation, this was a huge loss for the renovation company.
Bi Qi’s actions made Gu Qingming think highly of him and feel that Bi Qi could be trusted.

Shi Youliang and Liu Sanying suddenly received a huge order!
Since the address and the manufacturer’s contact number were on his rice cake, his order was sent by the other party through the phone.
They could not tell if this order was real or fake.
However, they remembered that Gu Qingming had said that labeling everything on the packaging might attract big customers.
Their rice cakes had been selling better and better these days!
Many orders were repeat purchases after the first time, and the orders were larger than the previous ones.
This gave the couple great hope!
In the past, they could only earn 30 to 40 dollars in three days. Now, they could earn 30 to 40 dollars a day.
In the future, there would definitely be more and more.
“Little Gu, I received an order. I don’t know if it’s real or fake. Help me distinguish it!”
They brought client’s phone number to the Shi family. As soon as she saw Gu Qingming, Liu Sanying said excitedly, “A client called and said that he wants to order 2,000 rice cakes to entertain guests at the client’s engagement banquet.”
Gu Qingming frowned slightly and asked, “Someone in the hotel?”
Liu Sanying nodded and said, “Yes, he claims to be the manager of a Jin Xiu Hotel in J City.”
Gu Qingming nodded and said, “This glutinous rice cake is served at their banquet. It’s indeed not bad as dessert!”
Eating glutinous rice cake dipped in white sugar or honey was a good way to end a banquet meal!
Liu Sanying’s eyes lit up. Suppressing her excitement, she asked, “So, Little Gu, is this order real?”
Gu Qingming thought for a moment and said, “This order should be real!”
“Ah, that’s great!” Liu Sanying said excitedly, “Then I’ll call him back now and tell him that the rice cake is ready today and send it to him!”
Gu Qingming said, “Auntie Liu, there’s no hurry! Ask him for a deposit or pay first. If the order is real, he will pay first. If it’s a scammer, he will definitely hesitate.”
There was no guarantee that the order would be completed halfway through from their end, but the other party would not acknowledge it.
“Alright, I’ll call him now!” Liu Sanying took out his phone and handed it to Shi Youliang.
Shi Youliang asked curiously, “What’s wrong?”
“Go ahead!” Liu Sanying said, “Your contact information is written on it, the head of the factory.” She sounded very proud when she said this.
Gu Qingming was speechless.
Shi Youliang immediately nodded and said, “Alright, alright. I’ll fight. I’ll fight!”
Then, he dialed back.
While they waited for the other party to pick up, Shi Youliang and his wife held their breaths and suppressed their excitement.
This was a huge order.
If it was legitimate, they could earn a few hundred dollars at once…
“Hello, who is this?” The man’s steady and mature voice sounded.
“Manager Huang, it’s me. I’m the head of Liangming Workshop!” Shi Youliang introduced himself.
“Oh, it’s the director of the factory. What’s the matter?” Manager Huang asked.
Shi Youliang became nervous again.
He held his cell phone tightly and asked nervously and fearfully, “Manager Huang, can you pay the 2,000 rice cakes you asked for first? You can pay the deposit first! After all, we are operating a small business. If you don’t want it halfway, I… I’ll lose a lot of money.”
Manager Huang was a sensible person. He smiled and said, “Oh, I see. Alright, I’ll get the finance department to transfer the money to you later. But where should I send the money? Is it a cell phone transfer or a bank account number?”
“Just… just transfer the money to my cell phone!” Shi Youliang said excitedly.
Manager Huang nodded and said, “Alright, I understand. I’ll look for the finance department now and ask them to transfer money to you. How much is it?”
“For 2,400 glutinous rice cakes, you are supposed to pay 800 dollars. You’re a big client of my family. I’ll give you a discount. You can give me 7… 600 dollars!” Shi Youliang was obviously stuttering.
Manager Huang laughed heartily and said, “Your family has a small business. 800 dollars it is. I’ll get the finance department to transfer the money to you later. I’m ordering your family’s glutinous rice cake now to try out. It’s only in the probationary stage. If the customer’s reaction is good, I’ll sign a long-term cooperation agreement with your workshop. At that time, you can give me a discount.”
“Sure, sure, sure!” Shi Youliang was so excited that he almost jumped up.
Manager Huang instructed again, “These more than 2,000 glutinous rice cakes are used by me to entertain customers the day after tomorrow. These things must be safe and fresh.”
Shi Youliang immediately said, “Manager Huang, don’t worry. The rice cakes made by my family guarantee hygiene and safety. My family has a hygiene license. The rice cakes can be made in the afternoon. They’ll be vacuum packed and transported by courier. If nothing goes wrong, they’ll be ready tomorrow night.”
“Alright, as long as they can arrive the day after tomorrow!” Manager Huang nodded and said, “Director Shi, is there anything else? If not, I’ll hang up first!”
“It’s alright, it’s alright. You go ahead!”
When Shi Youliang heard the beeping sound coming from the phone, he said to Gu Qingming happily, “Little Gu, did you hear that? This Manager Huang said that he would transfer the money over later. They’re not liars! He even said that this is a trial to see how satisfied the client is. If he reacts well, he will sign a long-term partnership with us.”
“Ah, is it true?” Liu Sanying could not believe such a good thing. “That’s great. In the future, our family will sell more and more rice cakes.”
Gu Qingming smiled and said to them, “Uncle Shi, Auntie Liu, congratulations. Your business will definitely get better and better in the future!”
Shi Youliang said happily, “Xiao Gu, I still have to thank you. When Manager Huang heard that our factory has a sanitary license, he was much more at ease. As expected, customers will be more at ease eating things with a sanitary license!”
Gu Qingming only smiled..
