Ms. Lai said, "The Finance Department is a crucial department in the company and can't afford to fail. Director Kuang is very experienced, and you have a good relationship with her, but she can't stay here long-term, so we're asking you to respond tomorrow. If you disagree, we'll immediately recruit someone."

Su Tiantian said firmly: "I want to know the real reason why the former financial manager of Dinghui Company resigned."

Gu Yiyuan said, "The financial manager came here from Province C with Vice President Xiao to work here, starting with the purchase of land and the construction of the factory. He doesn't have much experience in financial management. Since January of this year, Dinghui Company officially started production, and the workload has increased, he wants to return to Chengjia Company in Province C, so he applied for resignation."

Su Tiantian's words were somewhat meaningful: "Is it a good breakup?"

Gu Yiyuan said frankly, "It's a good parting. He resigned voluntarily and will cooperate with the handover. His salary in Province C will be higher than this rural town, and his wife also works there."

Su Tiantian said, "That's good."

Gu Yiyuan leaned back in his chair and said, "I'll revise the contract today and send it to you along with the job responsibilities for the Deputy Director of Finance. Sister Tiantian, the Director of Finance's office has actually been prepared a long time ago. It's well ventilated and smell-free. We didn't originally plan to create a Deputy Director of Finance position. If you come to work, we'll just change the office sign."

Mr. Lai jokingly said, "Then which office will I use when I come here?"

Gu Yiyuan said firmly: "If you, Fourth Brother Lai, come over, I will give you the general manager's office. After all, you are my Fourth Brother Lai."

Ms. Lai's expression relaxed. Regardless of her demeanor, she propped up her chin and said, "I really regret not recording what Yi Yi said just now."

Gu Yiyuan's expression softened, and he said indulgently, "How about I tell you again and let you record it?"

Mr. Lai was sitting in the same row with Gu Yiyuan, very close to him. He put his hand on his shoulder and said, "Sister, you don't know how thoughtful Yiyi is. Last time I said I wanted to raise some sheep in the company, and he actually went to ask Tiantian's husband where to buy some sheep yesterday."

Gu Yiyuan said, "As long as Fourth Brother Lai likes them, I'll buy them back in a couple of days. We can even let them give birth to lambs then."

Ms. Lai said, "Luckily, Dinghui Company has a large factory and open space and grassland. Companies in Kuozhou can't raise sheep. The content of the meeting is confidential. I don't need to explain this. Tiantian, you can discuss whether you will work at Dinghui with your husband before you respond. But don't disclose it to anyone else. I'll wait for your good news tomorrow."

Su Tiantian said, "Before I officially reply, I need to confirm, Mr. Gu, your purchase of the 22 acres of land from the Liu family has nothing to do with hiring me as the Deputy Director of Finance. You can't ask me to help Dinghui Company negotiate with the Liu family about the land purchase in the future."

Gu Yiyuan was full of confidence. "I'll talk directly to Liu Liangjie or Liu Jingze. Is that okay? I'm not afraid to tell you that in addition to the Liu, Ren, and Guo families, there are more than 30 acres of land around Dinghui Company. We've already bought it, and it's only a matter of time before we buy the land of these three families."

Su Tiantian said: "In any case, I don't interfere with their decisions."

Gu Yiyuan said calmly, "Mrs. Liu, don't worry about this. I know who is in charge of the Liu family."

Ms. Lai said, "The meeting is over. Let's adjourn. Ask Shishi to come over and video chat with me. I miss her so much."

Mr. Lai said, "Tiantian almost persuaded her yesterday. Big sister, please help comfort her. How could I, Lai Jianhao, not love my own daughter?"

Ms. Lai said impatiently, "Be careful when hiring people next time. Don't talk nonsense in front of the children. Also, spend more time with the children. Your career is important, and so are the children. Go and do your work. Ask Shishi to come over."

When Lai Mengshi heard that her aunt was looking for her, she turned around excitedly. Her aunt doted on her.

How long did the video chat between the eldest daughter of the previous generation of the Lai family and the eldest daughter of the current generation of the Lai family end? They chatted for more than an hour, until the lunch break at Dinghui Company.

It was just past ten o'clock when Su Tiantian and Miss Lai finished their meeting. Then Gu Yiyuan and others went to another small conference room to hold a meeting of the general manager's office. Su Tiantian and Assistant Li waited outside the door of the conference room to make it convenient for Lai Mengshi to call people.

After Gu Yiyuan held a general manager's office meeting with two assistants, two secretaries and General Manager Lai, he found out that Lai Mengshi was still chatting with her aunt. General Manager Lai and Gu Yiyuan looked at each other helplessly, then went in to interrupt their conversation.

Su Tiantian was very sure that Miss Lai said that the Lai family would not interfere in the management of Dinghui Company, but judging from Mr. Lai's behavior and Gu Yiyuan's acquiescence, not interfering does not mean not helping.
