Chapter 327 Marching Towards the Imperial Capital
Suzhou City, Yuya Department Store.
After its construction was completed, the place entered a state of full operation, and business improved several times over than before.
As Chen Yu was always busy in Europe, Tong Ya came here immediately after ending her trip to take charge of the department store as the lady boss.
At the same time, following the basic business model previously set by Chen Yu, she managed to take care of the industrial park in her spare time.
After all, as the young lady of the Tong Family, she had been steeped in business from a young age and understood all kinds of business models. Simply by reviewing the foundation set by Chen Yu, she could come up with corresponding plans.
"The employee meals for the various companies must not be neglected; it's a necessity for our internal circulation!"
In Tong Ya's hands were several documents, her words tinged with a hint of reprimand.
Han Cai didn't dare to even breathe heavily, standing there with her head hung low.
Due to her negligence, the delivery mixed up the employee meals for two companies.
This resulted in one company having an excess of forty meals, while the other did not have enough for its employees.
Dozens of companies in Suzhou City ordered their employee meals from them, and this did not even include the various companies under the Tong Family and Chu Family.
With so many companies in operation, mistakes were inevitable, and as it was Han Cai's first time carrying out such a business task externally, her performance was already quite commendable.
Tong Ya didn't dwell on the issue. After handing the documents to Han Cai, she went on to attend to other matters.
Han Cai breathed a sigh of relief as if she had been pardoned, and quickly contacted the two companies affected by the mix-up.
Chu Hong quickly stepped forward to comfort her, "It's okay, the lady boss just said a few words; she won't dock your pay. Just make sure the job is done properly."
Han Cai nodded again and again. It wasn't the first or second time Tong Ya had reproached them, but it was always just a few words each time.
In other places, you could be humiliated all day long, then lose your salary performance and might even get fired in the end.
Moreover, during this recent period, Tong Ya had consecutively recruited a large group of people, making it somewhat difficult to manage.
As one of the team leaders, Han Cai naturally understood the difficulties Tong Ya faced.
Late at night, when Tong Ya returned home, she discovered that Chen Yu had already arrived.
However, his expression looked rather grim, sitting there alone staring at the computer screen in a daze.
Not daring to disturb him, Tong Ya made a cup of tea and gently placed it on the table before sitting down beside Chen Yu.
The computer screen displayed a commercial blueprint, which surprisingly targeted the Imperial Capital.
Tong Ya waited until Chen Yu had typed the last character before she spoke.
"Husband, are you planning to venture into the Imperial Capital?"
Chen Yu had a smile on his face as he pulled Tong Ya into his arms.
"The plan is set, unite with the Tong Family, Tang Family, and other families from the Imperial Capital to divide up the Zhao Family!"
"Making a move on the Zhao Family?" Tong Ya was slightly taken aback, "While the Zhao Family may not be as large as the Tang Family or the Tong Family, they are also an established super family. Dividing them up might be challenging."
"Don't worry, overseas forces will be involved as well. All the plans have been laid out; the Zhao Family is meat on the chopping board!"
Tong Ya took a sharp breath; Chen Yu wouldn't usually target an existence like the Zhao Family so casually.
It seemed that Chen Yu must have secured greater capital during his European trip.
"So when do we start?" Tong Ya asked casually.
"Tomorrow, beginning with the opening of a branch in the Imperial Capital!"
Tong Ya didn't ask further, she briefly looked over the plan on the computer screen and had already grasped Chen Yu's basic idea.
"Should I have my dad help? That way, we could bind the capital of Suzhou City and the capital together in the shortest time."
Chen Yu's mouth curved slightly upward, "He has already started to take action."
In the capital, at the Zhao family residence.
Several senior members of the Zhao family were seated in the office, their faces etched with solemnity.
"Can anyone tell me what's going on? Why are so many capitals suddenly opposing the Zhao family at the same time?"
An old man in his seventies was sitting in the main seat, his body trembling, and the cane in his hand kept thumping on the ground, making a banging noise.
The current assets of the Zhao family were created single-handedly by Zhao Zhongde.
Who knew that his son and grandson were no good, especially the young lads of the grandson generation, who were purely loafing around, waiting to die.
He didn't want to interfere originally, considering that the assets of the Zhao family were enough for these people to live comfortably for several generations.
But now, with such a crisis at hand, if he didn't step in, the entire Zhao family was likely to be ruined by these young punks.
Zhao Hai hurriedly stood up, being the most outstanding among his generation, it was natural for him to step up at this time.
"Grandfather, so far, we have only lost some small peripheral industries, which are insignificant. As long as we still hold our main industries, even if all the capitals in the capital besiege the Zhao family, we do not need to be too concerned."
Zhao Hai's statement, at first glance, seemed like it had some strategic depth, but upon closer analysis, it was nonsense.
External capitals naturally start small, first tentatively taking over your minor industries, and then moving on to your main industries.
Your journey continues at empire
If you can't even protect those small peripheral industries, how can you expect to keep a firm hold on your main industries?
Zhao Zhongde just waved his hand, signaling Zhao Hai to sit down, and then took out a document from his pocket.
"This is a cooperation invitation from the new head of the Edward family. Now that the Zhao family has inexplicably faced such encirclement, it's likely related to them. At this point, we can only cooperate with them first and deal with the rest later."
Everyone in the room nodded in agreement, most of them without their own opinions, even being summoned here for the meeting by Zhao Zhongde forcefully.
What they had in mind was to quickly end the meeting and get back to their indulgent lifestyle.
Zhao Hai, who had just sat down, suddenly stood up again.
"We can't agree!"
The phrase 'head of the Edward family' was the last thing Zhao Hai wanted to hear.
The news from Europe in recent times was overwhelming, causing him great distress.
He never dreamed that Fang Yuan could take over the entire Edward family so easily, becoming one of the few female billionaires in Europe.
Remembering his previous wager with Fang Yuan, as well as their feud, Zhao Hai felt a cold chill on his back.
If Fang Yuan clung to past issues and insisted on settling accounts with him, the entire Zhao family might be dragged down.
Zhao Zhongde's brows were furrowed into a knot, he couldn't understand why his grandson was reacting so strongly.
The Zhao family was in an extremely dire situation, and although Fang Yuan had sent a cooperation invitation on the surface, no one knew about her behind-the-scenes maneuvers.
The Zhao family's newly acquired companies that were being taken over could very well be Fang Yuan's doing in the background, forcing the Zhao family into cooperation.
"Why can't we agree?"
Zhao Zhongde's face was grim, staring fixedly at Zhao Hai.
Based on his demeanor, Zhao Hai had to come up with a reasonable explanation today, or Zhao Zhongde wouldn't let it go lightly.
