Kong Wenhui was genuinely anxious; the quality of the products in the factory couldn't be improved, and after other provincial products entered the county, the price of the vice-food factory's items plummeted further.
Outside gossip praised them as rare and precious goods, but the pastries people ended up buying were tough as bricks. The mooncakes made last year were even harder than stones; one couldn't find a better weapon for a fight, those mooncakes could directly be used as lethal weapons.
The factory also wanted to improve the quality of their items, so that when visiting relatives and friends, when asked where such awful tasting things were bought, one wouldn't even be able to open their mouth to respond.
The instructions from above were strict, and the factory manager also tried sourcing materials from other places, so there were a few production lines in the factory whose products were very popular.
