In this chapter, we learn that the boss of a clothing factory, known as "wu en," has been using his access to a nearby apartment building as leverage to buy out the owner of another clothing factory. The owner of the other factory, "yao sichen," has also been using this access to his apartment building to transfer money to and from his bank account in the United States. Since the two factories are very close together, it is likely that the two men have been using the same bank account to transfer large amounts of money from one factory to the other. The two men will have to work together to find a solution to the supply problem.
