Chapter 509: Division of Labor at Starlight Financial Investment Company

After Yexin's problem was resolved, Shen Anna's mental state also clearly improved a lot.

After a deep rest of one day, she was back to full health and threw herself back into work.

Three days later, Wang Haibo suddenly came to Chen Yang's office.

"Boss Chen, does the investment you promised me a few days ago still count?"

Chen Yang was also a little dissatisfied with Wang Haibo because of Zeng Jing.

But if only considering the company's interests, he is still willing to invest.

After all, someone like Wang Haibo, who is talented and quick to learn, as a vegetable greenhouse partner, would be of great help in boosting the company's product competitiveness.

However, Chen Yang did not intend to use the funds of the Old Hundreds Agricultural Products Trading Company to invest in Wang Haibo, and instead brought him to the Starlight Financial Investment Company.

Seeing Chen Yang bring him to Yexin's company, Wang Haibo hesitated at the doorway.

"What are you afraid of? Your older female cousin merely does not support you dating Zeng Jing, and didn't say she doesn't support your entrepreneurship." Chen Yang directly dragged Wang Haibo into Yao Xia's office.

He was a bit puzzled, how could such an introverted person have the courage to fall out with his family and even go live in the countryside…

"Boss Chen, is this gentleman the outstanding entrepreneur you had in mind?" Yao Xia looked at Chen Yang with some doubt, noticing that aside from being somewhat handsome, Wang Haibo's demeanor had nothing in common with that of a successful entrepreneur.

Chen Yang directly introduced her: "Director Yao, this is Mr. Wang Haibo, the younger male cousin of your former sister-in-law."

Yao Xia glared at Chen Yang angrily and snapped: "What former sister-in-law? She is my actual sister-in-law. Boss Chen, if you keep spouting nonsense, I'll get angry with you."

"Fine, she is your sister-in-law!" Chen Yang immediately surrendered. He could see that Yao Xia still respected Yexin as her sister-in-law.

Simply put, given Yexin's current situation, even if she were released from prison, it would be impossible for her to remarry Yao Chunming.

Yao Xia ignored Chen Yang and instead gave Wang Haibo a scrutinizing look: "You're my sister-in-law's younger male cousin? I've never seen you before."

Wang Haibo already had objections to Yexin, and seeing her sister-in-law's attitude toward him so hostile, he turned around and was about to leave.

Chen Yang grabbed him and said irritably: "Those who accomplish great things don't fuss over trivialities. If you can't even tolerate this little bit of anger, how can you ever make your business big?"

Wang Haibo lowered his voice to Chen Yang: "Boss Chen, I don't want any involvement with the Ye family. If you're unwilling to invest, I'll just go back."

Chen Yang let out a deep sigh and said to him: "Wang Haibo, your sister truly cares about you! She feared you would be bullied by outsiders, so she reluctantly played the role of the 'villain'. In fact, your sister wasn't wrong at all! Look at what Zeng Jing did to you that day—doesn't that exactly match what she's always worried about?"

Wang Haibo felt somewhat uneasy after hearing Chen Yang's words, but he kept his head down and quietly defended Zeng Jing: "Boss Chen, things really aren't as you imagine. Zeng Jing actually exercised restraint; it wasn't as serious as you said."

Chen Yang sneered: "Your sister sincerely protects you, yet you treat her as an enemy. Zeng Jing bullies you, yet you turn around and defend her. Should I say you're lovesick, or that you're foolish and ignorant?"

Upon hearing that, Wang Haibo lowered his head even further.

Chen Yang said to Yao Xia: "Allocate ten million from the company's project funds for him to expand his vegetable greenhouse base!"

Yao Xia refused to stay silent, her expression clearly not very willing.

Chen Yang frowned slightly: "Director Yao, does my word as a major shareholder not carry weight?"

Yao Xia complained: "He doesn't even like my sister-in-law, so why should I use her money to support his venture?"

Chen Yang retorted irritably: "That's the karma your sister-in-law brought upon herself. If she hadn't meddled in idle matters, she wouldn't have invited all this trouble."

Upon hearing that, Yao Xia's eyes instantly reddened.

Chen Yang worried she might break into uncontrollable tears, so he immediately softened his tone: "This investment was approved by your sister-in-law. You can't possibly refuse to listen to her, can you?"

Upon hearing that, Yao Xia reluctantly had her assistant take Wang Haibo to sign the investment contract.

After Wang Haibo left, Chen Yang said to Yao Xia: "Director Yao, I spoke a bit harshly just now; don't take it to heart. Mainly, there have been too many things lately, and I've been feeling a bit irritable. Once the company's affairs get back on track, I'll apologize to you properly."

"No need." Yao Xia shook her head firmly: "My sister-in-law told me that in her absence, I should follow your lead on all company matters. I will honor our agreement."

Chen Yang gave a wry smile. Previously, with Yexin and Shen Anna leading the charge, his days were relatively leisurely—he could run around everywhere and had plenty of time to accompany Lin Wei.

Since Yexin went in, time suddenly became insufficient. Besides managing the Old Hundreds Agricultural Products Trading Company and the Starlight Financial Investment Company, he also had to handle the East Jiang Business Alliance's affairs. Let alone returning to Qingshui City to be with his wife, he couldn't even leave Xingcheng.

This kind of life is not what Chen Yang wanted.

Therefore, he summoned Huang Bai Ming, Zhao Feiyang, Yao Xia, and Lan Qiyun together to the company meeting room for a meeting.

Chen Yang spoke first: "Everyone, since General Manager Ye is absent, much of the company's business has stalled. I hope everyone can step up and overcome this difficulty together."

As soon as he finished speaking, the others all expressed their support.

Zhao Feiyang volunteered: "I'm more familiar with the business in New Peace City; I can handle it."

Lan Qiyun also spoke up: "I can take full charge of the daily work of the Securities Investment Department."

Huang Bai Ming hesitated a moment, then said: "Then I'll go to Qingshui City!"

Chen Yang saw he wasn't keen, and immediately said: "Manager Huang, if it's inconvenient for you, just stay at headquarters and oversee the overall situation. It's fine for me to handle Qingshui City's business."

Huang Bai Ming shook his head vigorously: "Boss Chen, the company's scale is huge now; a single mistaken decision could cost hundreds of millions—I can't bear that responsibility. It's better for you and Director Yao to hold down headquarters."

Chen Yang said to him: "The Party Secretary and Mayor of Qingshui City both have a strong push to develop the local economy. If you encounter any difficulties there, you can ask them for help."

Huang Bai Ming nodded. The mayor of Qingshui City is Chen Yang's father-in-law, and the Party Secretary is the father of company executive Kong Qiming; going there to conduct business is actually the easiest.

Chen Yang finally looked at Yao Xia and said: "Director Yao, the daily work at headquarters is still your responsibility. If staffing is insufficient, you can recruit more at the talent market. Don't be reluctant to spend money. For the company to grow, it needs more capable people to shoulder important tasks."

Seeing Chen Yang entrust her with all the daily management of headquarters, Yao Xia complained: "Boss Chen, what are you going to do then?"

Chen Yang sat up slightly, his expression solemn, and said: "All matters you cannot handle will be dealt with by me!"
