Su Xiaotian had always felt that the treatment she provided was very good.
These people were profiting considerably, so they shouldn't do anything detrimental to the factory.
However, she hadn't expected things to happen so abruptly.
Although the incident caught her off guard, it wouldn't actually cause too much loss to the factory.
The new flavors researched by the team were good, but not irreplaceable.
It was just that her family didn't think so, and they were very anxious upon hearing about it.
"Xiaotian, do you want us to help you? It might be difficult for a young girl like you to handle this."
"Xiaotian, your father doesn't have much ability, but he can't just watch you get bullied. Tell me, what can I do to help?"
"My dear child, you've been wronged. Let your brothers worry about these things for you from now on."
Her family members were all eager to help, and even Su Xiaocao was very worried.
But Su Xiaotian felt that handling this matter wouldn't be too difficult.
Even though Su Xiaotian refused, how could the Su family be at ease?
They still discussed it and asked Su Xiaosi to help resolve the problem.
Su Xiaosi was almost blinded by making money. He now went to school less and less, dedicating most of his energy to management.
His businesses developed rapidly.
But upon hearing that Su Xiaotian's factory had problems, he immediately put down his own work.
Although making money was important, in Su Xiaosi's heart, his sister was more important.
When Su Xiaosi heard that Su Xiaotian didn't want them to interfere, he didn't go to Su Xiaotian.
Instead, he directly found people to investigate and verify from the periphery.
Su Xiaotian herself went to the factory very calmly.
Everyone in the factory knew that the newly developed formula had been leaked.
When Su Xiaotian arrived at the factory, the atmosphere was completely off.
Wang Xianghua was so angry that she hid in her room and cried.
She felt, how could these people be so heartless?
Xiaotian treated them so well, and the people working in the factory lived more comfortably than those working in city factories.
Why would they sell the factory's formula?
What good would it do them if the factory suffered?
"They are all heartless people, and Xiaotian treated them so well!"
"Don't be angry anymore. Xiaotian will surely have a way." Su Laoda could only comfort his wife in a low voice.
His wife was genuinely good to Xiaotian.
Now that she saw Xiaotian being wronged, how could she be at ease?
"Xiaotian is still so young and has to consider so much. These heartless people, sob, my Xiaotian is so pitiful."
"When this is investigated, I'll give these heartless people a few slaps!"
Su Laoda listened to his wife babbling and sobbing, and could only continue to persuade her.
"Alright, I'll help you then. If that's not enough, we'll call our sons."
"I'm worried we won't find the people."
Wang Xianghua's mood did not improve at all.
She had many more worries.
Since the other party acted with malicious intent, they surely wouldn't leave any traces. Xiaotian was often not at the factory, so how could they be found?
At this time, Su Xiaotian had already arrived at the factory.
Su Xiaotian first met with the factory director and then went to the research team.
Everyone was actually worried about what measures Su Xiaotian, as the actual boss, would take after such an incident occurred in the factory.
But they never expected that Su Xiaotian would actually just come to take a look.
In less than half a day, Su Xiaotian left the factory with a calm expression and went to the adjacent breeding farm.
The person in charge of the breeding farm was Su Laoda and his wife. Whenever Su Xiaotian visited, she would go to the breeding farm to see Su Laoda and his wife.
Unexpectedly, when she entered today, she was startled.
What happened? Why was Auntie crying?
Could she have been bullied?
"Xiaotian, are you alright?"
Seeing Su Xiaotian, Wang Xianghua immediately stepped forward, grabbed Su Xiaotian's arm, and asked anxiously.
"Auntie, I'm fine, everything is alright." Su Xiaotian was startled.
"Xiaotian, tell us your thoughts, and Auntie and Uncle will help you. If not, you have your brothers."
"It's fine, I have it all figured out. Auntie, you and Uncle just keep an eye on the breeding farm." Su Xiaotian quickly comforted them.
"Xiaotian, but the formula was taken by others. Aren't they going to compete with us?" Su Laoda asked.
"Uncle, our factory isn't lacking this one formula. Even if this formula isn't produced anymore, it's not a big deal."
In fact, it did matter. After all, the other party had already started production and sales, and their prices were even lower than theirs, which did have some impact.
But Su Xiaotian didn't intend to reveal these things to let her elders worry.
"I have many other recipes here. We can switch to producing others then."
Hearing Su Xiaotian's words, Wang Xianghua and her husband were indeed relieved.
This also stemmed from their trust in Su Xiaotian.
They both knew that Su Xiaotian was a thoughtful child and would definitely not suffer a loss.
Su Xiaotian indeed had a personality that wouldn't let herself be taken advantage of.
Although she seemed to have done nothing today, only making a round.
However, Su Xiaotian had learned everything she needed to know.
She had confirmed that the factory director and the two deputy directors were not problematic; the issue lay with the research team.
Furthermore, she privately conveyed her opinions to the factory director.
She wasn't at the factory often, so these matters still needed to be handled by familiar people.
Moreover, she firmly believed that this matter, since it had already happened, must be resolved once and for all.
Fortunately, contracts had been signed, and reporting to the police was sufficient for this matter.
The first thing Su Xiaotian did upon returning to the city was to report to the police.
As she walked out of the police station, Su Xiaotian had a smile on her face.
Even though the traitor appeared very calm and showed no signs of guilt, once they had done it, there would surely be traces.
It was quite easy for Su Xiaotian to directly expose this person.
But Su Xiaotian didn't want to do it that way.
Since this person was bold enough to do something illegal, handing them over to the police for handling was the most reasonable course of action.
Su Xiaotian never considered the possibility that the police wouldn't be able to find the suspect.
Su Xiaotian provided the police with direction and clues.
With direction and clues, it was actually very easy to verify.
But she didn't expect the investigation results to come out faster than her estimated week.
It only took three days for the investigation results to be released.
Naturally, under normal circumstances, investigation results wouldn't be this fast.
However, the person in charge of this investigation was precisely the police station chief Wang Zhengde, who had been promoted after helping Su Xiaotian apprehend a group of ruffians.
Because of his meritorious service, he had been promoted and was now the deputy director in charge of this area.
Knowing that Su Xiaotian had reported someone for stealing her factory's formula, he naturally couldn't take it lightly.
Deputy Director Wang Zhengde was very diligent, personally overseeing the matter day and night.
Moreover, as the evidence seemed to point in a clear direction, the investigation proceeded smoothly without any hitches.
The case was solved in three days.
When Su Xiaotian heard this news, she was shocked.
Were the police's case-solving speeds already this fast?
It seemed much more efficient than decades later!
