Chapter 164: Placating the Workers

Shen Chaobei was overwhelmed by the noise of the workers, when he saw Shen Mingzhu standing there, having been there for who knows how long, and suddenly felt as if he had seen a lifesaver.

"Mingzhu, you're here!"

Shen Mingzhu walked over with a measured step, her voice calm, "How many times have I said this? In the factory, everyone should call me 'Factory Manager.'"

Shen Chaobei hurriedly corrected himself and called out "Factory Manager."

The workers had also wanted to call Shen Mingzhu by her name, but hearing Shen Chaobei address her as "Factory Manager," they all followed suit.

"…Factory Manager, you've come at just the right time. Today, just give it to us straight, is the factory going to reopen, or what?"

"Yes, if we can't get back to work, we might as well go home. It's just the right time to help with the harvest."
