"Well, that's great! You've offended Uncle Sheng the moment we met. What are you going to do now? What about the company?"
Hou Mingliang was furious. He really didn't know what those leaders were thinking, that they would appoint such a person as the head of the timber company.
With a leader like that, the company will go bankrupt sooner or later.
"Hou Mingliang, how dare you speak to General Manager Peng like that?"
Don't forget, you are a company employee. You have to think about the company and create benefits for it.
Our company has formal staffing, it's a deputy section chief level unit, they're really looking down on us!"
Over there, the salesman who had been turned away by Peng Dingcheng for so many days was unhappy and shouted at Hou Mingliang.
"It doesn't matter if you're a section chief or deputy section chief, or any other section chief level, it doesn't matter, people still won't pay attention to you."
Now that you've come to their territory, if you need their help, what's the point of putting on airs?
So what if they're just ordinary workers? They just have the ability to get their hands on timber.
"You're a deputy section chief; without him, we can't buy timber. What can you do about it?"
Hou Mingliang had put in a lot of effort to get recruited to the timber company, and he actually cherished the opportunity.
After all, they are formal workers. In this day and age, being a worker is a very important thing.
"President Peng, I know you don't trust my father and me. You always feel that we made a lot of money off you from last year's timber, and you're even pressuring me to give you a job opening."
So this time you deliberately ditched me and came over by yourself.
What good will your arrival do? It still won't get done, will it? And that's why you have to call me back.
I am a company employee. I should accept your attitude and arrogance towards me.
"Uncle Ke Sheng isn't an employee of your company, is he? You're here asking for money, why are you putting on airs? Trying to show off how capable you are?"
Before he arrived, Hou Mingliang was full of resentment. If Hou Yashuang hadn't persuaded him, he would have quit on the spot.
When Hou Mingliang arrived at Songjiang River, he had just met Sheng Xiping when Peng Dingcheng pulled this stunt again, which disgusted him to no end.
He had already made up his mind; he wouldn't do it anymore, regardless of whether he was a formal worker or not. He couldn't afford to serve that kind of leader.
With this thought in mind, Hou Mingliang naturally spoke bluntly, directly confronting Peng Dingcheng until his face turned ashen and he looked increasingly unpleasant.
"You, Hou Mingliang, don't forget, you're an employee of my company. How dare you talk to me like that? You don't want to work here anymore, do you?"
Peng Dingcheng was furious; he pointed at Hou Mingliang, his hand trembling.
"Yes, I quit, what can you do about it?"
With a boss like you, I can't keep this job. Go find someone else, I'm quitting.
Hou Mingliang shook his head and went back to his room.
"Old Hou, look at this, this is your good son."
I'm his direct supervisor, and he talks to me like that? He's incredibly arrogant, utterly disrespectful.
Hou Mingliang left, and Peng Dingcheng, with nowhere to vent his anger, went to Hou Yashuang.
"Old Hou, I allowed your son to work at the company and gave him a permanent position because of you."
But look at him, talking to me like that, who does he even respect?
"I don't need an employee like that anymore. You can take your son home; I'll tell the company to fire him."
Peng Dingcheng was the undisputed boss at the timber company, but today he was humiliated by Sheng Xiping and Hou Mingliang, two young men. How could he possibly save face?
He immediately threatened to fire Hou Mingliang.
"President Peng, President Peng, please calm down, please calm down."
The child is young and doesn't understand; he was just angry and spoke without thinking.
Hou Mingliang could just walk away without a care in the world, but Hou Yashuang is too old to be so impulsive.
We're all from the same place, we'll run into each other all the time. Besides, the furniture factory and the timber company do business together. Even if we can't be on good terms, we can't afford to offend them.
"President Peng, you are a magnanimous person, don't hold a grudge against a child."
The main reason for today's incident is that it was our first meeting, and neither of us knew each other's temperaments, which led to a misunderstanding.
I believe that President Peng came all this way to make money, not to start a fight, right?
In that case, Mr. Peng, you should go back to your room and rest first, calm down, and I'll think of a way to contact my brother later.
"If that doesn't work, we can find a restaurant, arrange a meal for him, and we can all sit down and talk things over properly. How does that sound?"
Hou Yashuang smiled and gently persuaded Peng Dingcheng.
Actually, at this moment, Peng Dingcheng also regretted it. He had been in Northeast China for so long and had spent a lot of effort but had accomplished nothing.
They finally found a middleman, but somehow he said something unpleasant that angered the person and made them leave.
If the business deal falls through, their food and lodging expenses are a minor issue; without the low-cost timber directly shipped from Northeast China, the company's profits will shrink significantly this year, resulting in a huge loss.
So when Hou Yashuang gave him this advice, Peng Dingcheng went along with it and gave a perfunctory sigh.
"Alright, Lao Hou, I'll leave this to you."
If you can handle this well, I'll keep your son Liang's job for now. If you can't, don't blame me for being ruthless.
After saying that, Peng Dingcheng led the salesman back to their room to rest.
Hou Yashuang glanced at Peng Dingcheng and his companion's retreating figures, then spat, "You hypocritical bastards, just you wait."
After saying that, Hou Yashuang went back to her room to persuade her son.
On the other side, Sheng Xiping walked towards the Forestry Bureau, getting angrier the more he thought about it. He had lived two lives and this was the first time he had ever seen such a weirdo. It was truly an eye-opener.
