"Boss Sun, this is a price comparison table of building materials for the two projects that I calculated in recent months. This is the price of the local supplier for the villa project, and this is the price of the supplier from Boss Wang for the stadium project."

Li Qian flipped through the table and explained carefully:

"For the same building materials, the price difference between the two is nearly 20%. In a few months, the accumulated cost will be more than million yuan."

"More than five million, that's a lot!"

Sun Xue was very shocked when she heard this number.

"Mr. Sun, before the statistics were collected, I didn't expect there would be so many more, but you see, the data doesn't lie..."

Sun Xue suddenly realized that the local high-quality alternative that she and Pei Shaojie had proposed before was correct.

No compromise should have been made on this matter at that time, at least the company could have saved millions.

"Boss Sun, Boss Wang placed an order for 20 million worth of building materials with the supplier, Manager Xu, last week."

When Sun Xue heard this, she became very angry.

"For such a large amount of goods, if we buy them from local suppliers, wouldn't we be able to save a lot of money? We can't do this. I'll find Mr. Wang and ask him to cancel the order."

Li Qian replied weakly, "This order cannot be cancelled. The 10% deposit of million has been transferred to the other party's account..."

"what!"

Sun Xue yelled in anger, "Why didn't you report such a big thing to me?"

Li Qian answered cautiously, "Didn't you say last time that... the purchasing plan would be decided by Mr. Wang?"

Sun Xue was speechless for a moment...

She felt like crying but had no tears.

The company is currently facing financial constraints and it is becoming more difficult to obtain loans. She felt heartbroken to have to spend so much extra money all at once.

Recently, Lu Huohua transferred 100 million yuan to her company in two installments. Deputy Mayor Wang contacted the bank and approved 50 million yuan.

Although it was far from her expected goal, Sun Xue found out after inquiring that her result was already very good. Several large companies had only applied for 10 million at most. It was precisely because Deputy Mayor Wang had stepped in to make the call, otherwise even 20 million would not have been approved.

But this money is far from enough for so many projects to be started at the same time.

She wished she could break every penny into two.

Sun Xue sighed, "I understand, Accountant Li, I will ask President Wang to resolve this matter."

Li Qian saw that Sun Xue looked unhappy and said, "Boss Sun, I'll be busy now. If you have any questions, please call me anytime."

After Li Qian left, Sun Xue fell into deep thought...

No! She must stop Mr. Wang's approach and resolutely adopt the previous local high-quality alternative.

Otherwise, the high cost of building materials alone would put her company into financial crisis.

Sun Xue called Wang Ke:

"Mr. Wang, please come to my office. I have something to tell you."

At this time, Wang Ke was lying on a hospital bed with an IV drip.

He is a native southerner and still hasn't adapted to the northern weather.

A sudden snowfall a few days ago caused him to catch a cold. He bought medicine and took it for two days, but today he suddenly had a high fever and had to go to the hospital for treatment.

During the time when he was sent by Lu Huohua to Sun Xue's company to assist with the National Games project, he was full of grievances.

First of all, he was not adapted to the climate. The altitude of Quancheng City is 300 meters higher than that of Mocheng City. He always felt a lack of oxygen and felt chest tightness and shortness of breath.

In addition, this was his first time working on a stadium project and he encountered many technical difficulties, which put him under a lot of work pressure.

"I'm in the hospital."

"Hospital? Are you sick?"

"I have a cold and a fever."

"Then I'll go to the hospital to see you."

After hanging up the phone, Sun Xue bought a fruit basket and flowers and asked Zhu Biao to take her to the hospital.

Although she had some complaints against Wang Ke before she called him, when she heard that Wang Ke was sick and hospitalized, the first thought that came to her mind was that she must go to the hospital to visit Wang Ke.

After all, Wang Ke came all the way to Quanzhou City to help her career, and she was grateful in her heart.

Sun Xue was still a little surprised when she saw Wang Ke lying on the hospital bed.

Wang Ke's face was pale, his lips were dry and peeling, and his mental state looked worrying...

Sun Xue placed the fruit basket and flowers on the bedside table and asked with concern:

"Boss Wang, why are you so pale? Are you okay?"

Wang Ke sighed, "What a weird weather in the north. How can it snow in April? I feel sore all over my body. I feel like my bones are falling apart..."

Zhu Biao, who was standing by, laughed and said, "You have a typical cold. Your whole body is aching. People from the south cannot adapt to the northern climate all at once. You will get used to it after half a year or a year."

Wang Ke shook his head. "I'm afraid I can't adapt to the climate here. If it doesn't work, I can only ask Mr. Lu to let me go back."

As he was speaking, Wang Ke's cell phone rang.

When he answered the phone, his tone was full of fatigue:

"Manager Xu, is there anything wrong?"

After listening to the other party, Wang Ke replied:

"Okay, you can arrange the shipment next week, but you need to offer a better price. As you know, the business is not doing well right now."

After Wang Ke discussed the price with the other party for half an hour in a flattering tone, he finally smiled:

"Thank you, Manager Xu. Let's follow the old rules. After we receive the goods, I will immediately arrange for the financial department to transfer the remaining 10 million yuan to your company account. When I return to Magic City, I will thank you very much."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ke looked very accomplished:

"It was not easy. After much persuasion, the other party finally gave us a discount on the original price. Manager Xu also took our cooperation for many years into consideration. Otherwise, we would definitely not have been able to get this price."

While Wang Ke was communicating with the other party, Sun Xue basically understood what was said.

The Manager Xu that Wang Ke mentioned is the one mentioned by Li Qian from the Finance Department. He is the building materials supplier that Wang Ke placed an order of 20 million with.

When Wang Ke said this, he thought Sun Xue would thank him.

Unexpectedly, Sun Xue said seriously:

"Mr. Wang, we can't let them ship the goods. Please call them and tell them to cancel the order."

Wang Ke's smile froze on his face, and he frowned and asked:

"Mr. Sun, what do you mean?"

Sun Xue said decisively, "The company is very short of funds now. We must start with raw materials to reduce costs and adopt local high-quality alternatives."

Wang Ke's face suddenly darkened:

"Boss Sun, we have discussed this before. You are bringing it up again now. You are clearly causing trouble. I strongly disagree!"
