Chapter 475 - 474: Mess
The workers dispersed, and Nellie White came out, her eyes filled with gratitude as they looked at Peter Brown.
She brought Peter to her office and sat down.
Nellie sat there, staring at the factory outside the window, as if talking to herself: "This factory was built by my uncle from the ground up. He was a very capable man, and the factory grew bigger and bigger day by day. It is a toy processing factory – there’s not much technology involved, but this factory is the accumulation of my uncle’s hard work."
Peter also looked outside and poured a glass of water for Nellie and himself.
Nellie continued: "The competition between toy processing enterprises is actually very fierce. In this city, my uncle was in competition with a company called Circum-Sea Group. I’m not too clear about the specifics. But while the two companies were competing, my uncle suddenly died in a car accident. My aunt, overcome by the shock, collapsed and had no choice but to hand the factory over to a hired general manager named Kade Brown."
At this point, Peter remembered hearing about the general manager purchasing equipment from twenty years ago and began to have a better understanding of the situation.
Sure enough, Nellie continued: "First, the chief engineer of my uncle’s factory led a group of technical staff into a factory called Windsea Toy Factory, emptying the entire factory of its technical workers. Then Kade Brown spent all the factory’s money to purchase a set of equipment – the equipment we received today. No one knew that he was the biggest culprit. After purchasing the equipment, he resigned and then became the boss of the Windsea Toy Factory."
At this point, Nellie’s eyes revealed a look of resentment.
Peter said: "All these things he did must have been approved by your aunt, right?"
"My aunt was listless and completely handed over the factory to him. Who knew he had intentions of hollowing out this factory all along?"
Peter suddenly thought of Nellie renting a house, and asked in confusion: "There should be houses in the factory, right? Why did you go out to rent a house?"
