Chapter 137 Market Downturn
The Jinjin paper mill started work from the eighth day of the first month to April, and everything seemed to be normal.

Yuan Wuhua started to handle the change registration of Jinjin Paper Mill from the first day of work, and changed the original production scale to [-] tons. It took more than a month to pass the industrial bureau, environmental protection bureau, and safety supervision bureau. Bureau, Water Conservancy Bureau and other relevant departments, after affixing the official seal, submitted the declaration materials to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and got back the business license in late March, and then completed the tax registration and got back the tax registration certificate.

Under the guidance of Mr. Cai, the new production line was operating very normally, the production efficiency was greatly improved, and the output reached a new high. Compared with the same period last year, the total output increased by nearly [-] tons.Moreover, Cai Gong adjusted and optimized the production process and material formula, and the cost per ton was also reduced to a certain extent.However, there are great hidden worries in advancing paper mills.

The purpose of upgrading the production line is to produce paper products with high standards and high prices, but so far, there is no order for such paper products.Tang Qinglian and Li Ping went to Shangfeng Company to find Shang Yiping twice, but Shang Yiping was not there.Tang Qinglian asked Director Chen when Mr. Shang would return to the company. Director Chen told her with a smile that Mr. Shang was a wild and unconstrained person, and his time in the company was uncertain.Tang Qinglian asked Director Chen to make an appointment to meet Shang Yiping. Director Chen agreed, but there was no reply.

Moreover, the market price of paper products has been sluggish. Although some production has been increased, the sales revenue has only a small increase compared with the same period last year.Tang Qinglian thought of some ways, held a sales meeting, urged Li Ping to increase sales, and went to the county to visit some users, but the effect was not good.

Tang Qinglian was anxious but couldn't think of a better way.

After entering April, Tang Qinglian woke up very early every day, especially during this period. She would wake up before four o'clock every morning, and could not sleep again after waking up. Sometimes she would lie on the bed, sometimes crawl Get up and sit.She tried to make her noise as quiet as possible, not wanting to disturb Yuan Wuhua, but many times Yuan Wuhua would wake up, raise her body to take a look, and then lay down and fell into a deep sleep.

This morning, after Tang Qinglian woke up, instead of sitting on the bed, she got up and sat down at the table. Yuan Wuhua woke up, rubbed her sleepy eyes, checked the time, turned over and sat up.

Yuan Wuhua asked: "Qingqing, are you up? It's only 04:30!"

"Can't sleep. Go to sleep."

Yuan Wuhua got up and took a piece of clothing to put on Tang Qinglian, and said: "Go to bed and lie down, maybe you will fall asleep."

Tang Qinglian looked at Yuan Wuhua and said, "Wuhua, go to sleep! Pengpeng is getting married the day after tomorrow. You have a lot to do these days!"

Yuan Wuhua smiled and said, "I can't sleep with you like this."

Tang Qinglian sighed softly, got up and went back to bed to lie down.Yuan Wuhua also went to bed, and snored after a while.

Tang Qinglian didn't feel sleepy at all, but at this moment she made up her mind that after Tang Peng's wedding, she would change her ways and take the initiative to fight for some orders.

Two days later, Tang Peng and Jiang Hong held their wedding.

Tang Peng's wedding went very smoothly.At [-]:[-], the convoy brought Gao and the new couple into the Tang family. The ceremony began at [-]:[-] past [-]. After the ceremony, everyone began to drink and eat.

The main task of Tang Qinglian and Yuan Wuhua today is to accompany Gao Qin to drink wedding wine at the main table.

The eldest uncle Tao Jianan, the second uncle and the third uncle and their families accompanied Gao Qin to sit at the top tables of the main room. According to local customs, on the day of nephew’s wedding, besides Gao Qin, uncles and aunts had the highest status, so when eating, the uncles and aunts had the highest status. The uncle accompanied the bride's father, and the aunt accompanied the bride's mother.The other close relatives accompany the rest of the senior relatives according to their seniority.

Tang Qinglian and Tao Xinping sat together to accompany Jiang Hong's cousin.Yuan Wuhua and Ren Zhijian sat at another table with several male senior relatives.

Tang Qinglian didn't like such an occasion, and she had to accompany the guests according to the etiquette requirements.Finally, after more than an hour, the banquet was over.

After seeing off Gao's relatives, Tao Xinping said: "Qingqing, are you okay today?"

Tang Qinglian glanced at Tao Xinping, shook her head and said, "No!"

Tao Xinping smiled and said: "No? From this morning to now, I see that you have been very preoccupied! Qingqing, I don't know you well yet? You must have something on your mind. Tell me, what's the matter?"

Tang Qinglian smiled and briefly talked about the production and sales of the paper mill.

Tao Xinping felt a little distressed after hearing this, and said, "Qingqing, you are under a lot of pressure, and you need to find a way. Then, you can go and talk to your brother-in-law later."

Tang Qinglian said with a smile: "I have already looked for my brother-in-law. He said that the current market is not good, and there is not much he can do."

At this moment, Ren Zhijian came over and asked with a smile, "What are you two sisters talking about here?"

Tao Xinping told Ren Zhijian what Tang Qinglian said.

Ren Zhijian heard this and said, "Qingqing, I'm looking for you these two days. I heard that Mr. Sun recently signed orders for several foreign trade packaging factories and sent them to Qianghua. The volume is relatively large and the time is relatively concentrated. You can go to Weiming to catch up with the order. It would be great if you can get some business from Qianghua.”

"Really, brother-in-law?"

"I've heard that too. Go find it yourself."

Tang Qinglian nodded.

After the morning meeting the next day, Tang Qinglian went to the office of Qianghua Paper Factory. Sun Yifang was working on financial statements and didn't notice Tang Qinglian.Tang Qinglian tiptoed to Sun Yifang's back, shouted: "Yifang!" Then she laughed.

Sun Yifang jumped up in fright, seeing Tang Qinglian who was covering her mouth and giggling, she smiled and called out: "Sister Qinglian, why are you here?"

"I'll come and see you! Where's Wei Ming?"

"I haven't seen you for a few days, and I miss you too, Sister Qinglian." Sun Yifang smiled and said, "Weiming is in the workshop. Do you have something to do with him?"

"It's okay, just ask."

Sun Yifang picked up the phone with a smile and said, "I'll call him."

Zhou Weiming arrived at the office in a short while.

Tang Qinglian said with a smile: "Wei Ming, you have left the workshop yourself, are you really busy?"

Zhou Weiming smiled and said, "Yifang's father has placed some orders, and the delivery will be made in the next few months. There is no way!"

"I really envy you for having such a good husband!"

"Qingqing, what about your factory?"

"Wei Ming, you know it! Ask the question knowingly."

Zhou Weiming glanced at Sun Yifang and asked, "Qingqing, did Yifang tell you just now?"

"what's up?"

"I still have more than 100 tons of goods to rush, can you do it?"

"Is there such a good thing?" Tang Qinglian giggled and said, "If there is such a good thing, why don't I do it!"

Sun Yifang smiled and said, "Sister Qinglian, it's true."

Tang Qinglian looked at Zhou Weiming and asked, "How much do you charge?"

There is a rule among the Huangqiao Town Paper Factory, that is, to pay [-]% of the business fee when making orders for others.

Zhou Weiming turned his head and said with a look of disdain, "I charge [-]% and it's only tens of thousands of dollars. We are neighbors next door, why don't we give you a favor?"

Tang Qinglian looked at Zhou Weiming gratefully and said, "Then thank you Weiming."

After a while, Tang Qinglian said goodbye and left, Zhou Weiming showed a smile on his face.
