The Hero

Chapter 310 The Dead!

Without a doubt, Barry is a pretty good planner.

He had prepared two sets of equipment, one as per standard and another one substandard.

The corresponding standard will be used to produce the sample, which seems to be very successful and makes everyone happy. However, in reality, such sets will not be used during mass production.

This is the equivalent of a 20-year-old car that can still move after a few minor repairs. However, it would definitely be useless if it traveled a long distance.

On the other hand, the set that ran "long distance" for Barry was a subpar set.

After all, as long as they could go through their customers' quality checks, no one within the factory would ever check them again. In addition, it will be packed when finished, so there will be no smell.

However, what Barry did not expect at the time was someone who would even more thoroughly uncover his plans.

If it wasn't for the day still as bright as day, Barry would have desperately tried to teach Graham a proper lesson. However, some viewers may end up seeing what happens, and Barry is unable to risk it.

'How dare he come all the way here to investigate! Nerve b*stard it!

'But what if they come here and see for themselves? Even the beautiful Miss Aurum came personally here but ended up returning empty-handed as well, didn't she?

'They have no proof. Plus, they are bound by our contract, so no one can interfere with what I do. My business will run as usual, and I will continue to benefit.

'I can save a dollar for every sun visor I make by using waste materials, which will be up to 10,000 dollars per 10,000 pieces produced, he said, and 100,000 dollars per every 100,000 pieces produced.

'If I do it as standard, who will pay the extra fee? It'll still be me, won't it?!

So, Barry's line of thought was very simple. As long as there was money to be earned, he did not care who was driving that old, outdated car. After all, it was definitely not him!

The next day, Barry started preparing to make some substandard products, the inspection manager suddenly called him.

"Trs. Hoffman, Miss Aurum has brought her people to your factory again. Careful."

After hanging up the phone, Barry was so angry that he slammed his hand against the table

“F * ck that unlucky lady! Why are you chasing after me like a mad dog?! Why did you stop me from making a few bucks that weren't actually yours?!”

Even though he cursed Quinna, Barry still had to do what was necessary.

He hurriedly left his office and ordered his staff to stop production. Then, they had to exchange equipment.

All of his staff moved as if they were in the military, and it took less than 10 minutes before all preparations were completed.

Some staff had also been sent outside to wait through the factory line and had been ordered to call immediately when they saw someone from the Heisenberg Group arrive.

The moment they called, the factory would start production, ensuring that anyone coming from the Heisenberg Group would find out that their products were definitely made to the standards, so there was nothing to complain about.

However, they were unable to run their equipment too early. After all, they are simply sample products with a new shell attached, which may also break down if production goes on too long. At that time, they needed to spend money to repair the flaw. Even though each defect cost less than a few hundred, it was still money lost in the end, so Barry preferred to keep it and buy cigarettes,

After doing that, Barry sat in his office and casually listened to the trending song at the time.

He even held a few sentences. "Let's drink to freedom, let's drink to show our respect to the dead ..."

Barry hummed very harmoniously, so it was pretty clear that he frequented pubs and nightclubs for fun.

While he was at the top, the workshop supervisor came and reported, “Mr. Hoffman, the people from the Heisenberg Group are on their way and are about to arrive. We have started production.”

Barry nodded his head and told the supervisor to leave. Meanwhile, he took out a document and a pen and pretended to draw something.

After a while, his office door was opened and Quinna and Javier entered once again.

“Halo, Miss Aurum! What brings you here today? Come, come, sit!”

Because of this, she ignores Javier and focuses on entertaining Quinna by offering him a seat and a drink.

However, right at that moment, Javier suddenly approached his desk and retrieved the document he had just drawn a moment ago.

“Forum about the importance of improving product quality huh? Have you read something like this? Good work, Mr Hoffman!”

Barry immediately frowned at Javier's mocking laughter. 'What happened to this driver? The bosses were having a conversation, so who was he to interfere with?!'

However, since Javier had already brought up the matter, Barry still needed to explain himself with a serious expression.

"Yes that's right. I was very frustrated after what happened yesterday, so I thought very deeply about where everything went wrong. I then came up with a thought..What if I raise the awareness of my staff and make them see the company as their second home? Will it improve our situation? However, before all this happens, I must first make them understand what quality means to our company!

“I have to make them see the reason and realize how serious and fundamental this problem is. Only then can I expand my company to a higher level. At the same time, I will also be able to provide a better service to the Heisenberg.” Group

Barry is a rather fluent talker, so he can come up with a lot of nonsense that actually sounds believable.

"The pen is stronger than the sword, so is my mouth." Barry's way of working is about coming up with a beautiful plan but revealing nonsense while working behind the scenes.

After Barry gave his explanation, Javier inevitably raised his thumb. "You're really good at making up shit, Mr. Hoffman!"

Barry was still happy with his ability to come up with such a beautiful plan and speech when he suddenly heard this.

Javier's exclamation sounded very unpleasant to his ears, and also very disrespectful, which made Barry feel dissatisfied.

This was especially true when Barry thought that the words came from a mere driver!

He looked to see Javier. “I was in discussion with your boss, so why are you, an ordinary driver, talking and interrupting us so rudely when you shouldn't be here? Aren't you ashamed?”

Quinna just chuckled in silence so Barry wouldn't notice. 'I can't wait to see what this ordinary driver does next.'

In fact, Javier is not just a driver. Instead, he was a very brave person.

After Barry told him that, he immediately sat down at Barry's desk.

Then, he took out a cigarette and lit it before he said, “So what if I was just a driver? Can I not tell you the truth? Even a driver knows that he must deliver a product that does not go against his conscience. No matter how great the money is, and as much as people would never complain that there is too much they can make, it would not be worthwhile if this meager amount cost one's life, would it?

“For example, a beggar who was so hungry that he almost died on the streets. He can certainly live if you give him a dollar, so can you? If not, then forget everything I just said because you are not even human.

“If you are willing to do so, then..Why are you not willing to make that dollar without – causing someone to risk his life?

“I once read on the news that there was a very poor couple who had a son and two married grandchildren. The couple is full of all sorts of illnesses and cannot afford to stay in the hospital or buy medicine. Both of their grandchildren are teenagers, but they don't even have a new set of clothes to wear.

“Then, as their lives will change for the better, their daughter-in-law gets involved in an accident and leaves her paralyzed from the waist down forever, forcing her to have no job for the rest of her life. Thus, her husband eventually became the sole breadwinner of a family of six.

“He now has to work twice as much as usual, taking care of his parents, his children, and his wife. Such a difficult life that he had to live…

“Her wife couldn't bear to see him suffer so much, so she was looking for work everywhere she could do. Fortunately, he found a craft job that required him to string beads every day for meager wages per day, but that was still enough for him to pay some of his family's expenses.

“Then, the bead company uses lower materials to save a few dollars. These ingredients have an unreasonable content of formaldehyde, which eventually leads to the woman being diagnosed with leukemia, thus worsening an already unfavorable family situation.

“When her husband heard about the results of the investigation, he secretly gave his money to his eldest son before jumping off the hospital roof to commit suicide. His wife then thought he was a burden to the family and could no longer bear to live with that shame, so she cut his wrist.

“That was once a perfect family now consists of only two sickly elderly people and two teenagers.”

At that moment, Javier turned to look at Barry.

“Well, Mr. Hoffman. Do you think the owner of the beaded factory would feel guilty for using a material containing more than the limit of formaldehyde when he heard the news? Do you think he can sleep well every night? Or could it be that two ferocious ghosts came out at night and attempted to take his life?!”
