Xiaolan was puzzled, but she didn’t say anything. She only asked, “There’s still a batch of shoes and bags tomorrow. Does Madam want to see more?”
“No need. I have something to do tomorrow.”
“Then should I keep them for you?”
“No need. Return them. I’ll go to the shop to choose it for myself.”
Xiaolan nodded. “Okay, Madam.”
After Yan Xi left, Xiaolan pouted and looked at Xiaoyue. “Madam really thinks nothing of money. If it was me, I would have gone crazy over this batch of clothes from the
CEO.”
“Clothes, shoes, bags! My life ambition.”
Xiaoyue poked her head and pulled her away. “This is exactly why you are still a servant and she is Fourth Madam.”
The board of directors of the Gu Group was held as usual.
The meeting this time was more confrontational than before. The directors at the meeting were quarreling with each other.
The main topic was about Gu Sheng. Gu Sheng was supposed to be in charge of the financial project for the Gu Group this month, but now that Gu Sheng had suddenly
disappeared and a scandal broke out, it was no longer appropriate for him to be the leader. The urgent task now was to find someone who could take over the financial
project for Gu Sheng.
Gu Shen was the first person to be chosen.
Gu Shen did not speak. He sat on the wheelchair and looked at this group of people quietly.
They only remembered him when they needed him to clean up the mess.
“I’m still in charge of the Gu Electronics and the Gu hotel. I can’t spare more time for other projects. There are many talents in the company, so I believe there must be
someone who is up to take this task.”
The senior directors were stunned. They hastened to praise Gu Shen, trying to thrust the task upon him.
The meeting was in a deadlock for a long time until Old Master Gu called. He wanted Gu Shen to handle this financial project.
However, Gu Shen still did not agree.
Firstly, he didn’t want to reveal his ability just yet.
Secondly, he wanted to merge the Gu Electronics with the Gu Finance and the Gu Group while their shares were at their lowest, so that he could take over the Gu Group
completely.
Thirdly, he happened to be in a mood to watch this group of people racking their brains to come up with a solution.
Gu Shen insisted on refusing, and the others had no choice but to choose another person to be responsible for the financial project this month.
Soon, another quarrel broke out. Gu Shen glanced at everyone. He was expressionless, but he made people inexplicably afraid, as if they were being watched by a wild beast.
Someone secretly glanced at him and finally made a bold suggestion.
“Gu Shen, who do you think is more suited to be in charge of the financial project this month? You also know that financial projects are very important to the Gu Group.”
Gu Shen smirked and looked at the person who spoke. The person looked at him for a moment before looking away.
After a long while, Gu Shen commented, “I think Song Li can handle the financial project this month.”
Song Li was Gu Shen’s uncle in law. He was not very capable and had worked in the Gu Group for many years.
However, he had some foresight. When everyone was sucking up to Gu Shen’s uncles, Song Li chose to rely on Gu Shen. He had always been loyal and never said a word.
Previously, Gu Shen instructed him to go to the financial department. Now was the time to use him.
After Gu Shen finished speaking, everyone fell silent.
Before the others could speak, Gu Shen continued, “Song Li is quite capable. Now that he’s working in the financial sector and is familiar with finance, he’s the most suitable
candidate in my opinion. However, for the sake of fairness, let’s raise our hands and make a decision.”
Gu Shen was the first to raise his hands. “I agree.”
The others looked at each other and made their decision.
Over two-thirds of the people agreed and Song Li successfully took over the position.
Old Master Gu did not object after knowing who this person was, but he didn’t approve of what Gu Shen was doing.
Gu Shen was planting his people into different apartments.
This grandson of his was truly growing more and more resourceful. Even he was unable to see through him.
“The child is beginning to show some shrewdness.” Gu Hai leaned on his walking stick and looked unhappy. “He’s almost surpassing me.”
The butler walked over and stood half a step away from Gu Hai.
“You must be joking. Who in the Gu family can compare to you?”.
