The final shipping sample of Roman fabric they sent out was finally approved.
They had lost far too much time earlier, but fortunately, Ding Ding had prepared the customs paperwork well in advance, and the goods shipped out after a scare but without incident.
Once the truck drove out of the warehouse with the fabric, Ding Ding's job was done. He gave everyone half the day off and took the entire company out for a team-building event.
