Huo Jingrui moved swiftly and quickly found the people meeting with Master Qiu at the warehouse, thanks to the portrait Yunyi had provided.
After secretly tracking them, it was discovered that these people were actually selling supplies under the table. They were different from the black market dealers; they were stealing factory materials by colluding with insiders and resorting to inside and outside coordination.
Of course, they dared not touch the genuine product warehouse; they targeted those semi-finished or defective items instead. The insiders deceived the higher-ups by underreporting, omitting, or duplicating reports. Master Qiu was about to retire in two years, and he probably thought that once he left, even if it were uncovered, the blame wouldn't fall on him. After all, those warehouses were only audited once a quarter, mostly just a formality.
