Upon entering the residence, Chen Zhou immediately began to survey the entire area. He had seen similar large residences on the ninth floor before, but only now was he beginning to see the one before him clearly.
This residence can be described as extremely luxurious.
Although each house was only two stories high, their appearance far surpassed the "courtyard houses" he had seen in the countryside. Chen Zhou had previously thought that the houses in the countryside were already quite good, but now, seeing the houses in this place, he realized he had been overthinking it.
“Let’s go inside and talk. I was just discussing future plans with this young man.” Scarface said very solicitously as he walked up to Chen Zhou. He knew that it was his subordinate who had upset Chen Zhou, so he had to find a way to make Chen Zhou happy. However, Chen Zhou didn’t seem very happy.
And I felt like I didn't want to talk to him.
“Alright, I was just about to ask what position the Grand Steward holds within the Advanced Alliance,” Chen Zhou said coldly.
Chen Zhou's original idea was to have the scarred man guide the middle-aged merchant to familiarize himself with the newly reorganized Advanced Alliance. He had never said he would give him such a high position. Chen Zhou even wanted to grab someone to ask what the situation was like inside the Advanced Alliance, but he held back.
First of all, I want to have a go at this old fox's place.
Scarface's expression was slightly awkward, but it quickly disappeared. He immediately led everyone towards a slightly larger room, which should be where they could talk.
"No, no, I'm just a lowly servant under the leader," Scarface said sheepishly. He really wanted to beat up the two gatekeepers from earlier. What had those two said to the leader?
After entering the room, Chen Zhou and the middle-aged merchant sat down first, followed by Yuan Ziyi. Yuan Ziyi casually found a seat and sat down. Chen Zhou ignored her and focused his attention on the scarred man, who was sitting opposite Chen Zhou.
"Tell me, are you handling everything in the Advanced Alliance right now?" Chen Zhou asked casually.
"That's how it is for now, but once this second brother grows up, I will start to distribute power to him." Scarface said innocently. When it comes to feigning innocence, no one dares to say it's second to none. At that moment, Yuan Ziyi felt that Chen Zhou was bullying Scarface.
"From today onwards, take back all that nonsense. I don't want you to call me 'Big Brother,' call him 'Second Brother.' From now on, you'll call me 'Leader,' and he'll be the 'Deputy Leader.' Understand? Also, you're handing over all your power to him now. Anything you need to oversee will be decided by him," Chen Zhou said directly.
This scarred-face guy's status in the Advanced Alliance is indeed a bit too high now. Chen Zhou has to give him a good whack, otherwise, he'll really think the Advanced Alliance is his own.
If he had more time, Chen Zhou would like to meet the other managers like the scarred man, but there wasn't enough time. Right now, Chen Zhou could only try to get the scarred man to back down and let the middle-aged merchant manage more things. Otherwise, if this continued, the people in the advanced alliance wouldn't know who the real boss was.
"Ah... this isn't a good idea, Second Brother... no, the Deputy Leader isn't very familiar with the affairs of the Advanced Alliance yet... I think it would be inappropriate to blindly hand over power to him like this..." Scarface thought for a moment and immediately retorted. At first, when he heard Chen Zhou say that he should hand over all his power to the middle-aged merchant, he was a little confused, but after listening for a while, he realized that something was wrong!
Her original plan was to take advantage of these outsiders' lack of understanding of the local affairs, so they would be completely led by the nose by her, and she could teach them while they learned. However, she did not expect that the leader would suddenly arrive tonight and shatter her dream!
He had already settled things here! Today he had just dealt with the other managers and taken all the power under his control, but now it seems that all the power he had just acquired will be handed over to the middle-aged merchant.
“There’s nothing wrong with that. Just hand over all the power to the deputy leader, and you can be his assistant. You can tell him anything he doesn’t understand,” Chen Zhou insisted, almost letting the scarred man get his way.
Chen Zhou was even somewhat relieved now. If he hadn't come tonight, he didn't know what kind of mess that scarred man would have made of his Advanced Alliance.
“Like this…” Scarface looked at the middle-aged vendor with a hint of despair, but he didn’t expect the vendor to be expressionless.
The middle-aged merchant also had some complaints about the scarred man. All day, his men had basically been showing him around, and he hadn't done anything. Meanwhile, the scarred man was busy all day long, even delaying his requests to see him until the evening. The middle-aged merchant thought to himself, "Am I supposed to see my superior? And I have to wait for him?"
So the middle-aged vendor was naturally unhappy.
Unexpectedly, Chen Zhou returned just as the two had begun their negotiations. Actually, the two gatekeepers couldn't be entirely blamed; before Scarface started negotiating with the middle-aged merchant, he had instructed his men that no one was to disturb them without his orders.
