"What? You've already settled Wang Erhai and Wu Moli for me?"

When Huo Guoqiang heard this call from Zhang Sheng, he was very surprised.

Because only a short day had passed.

He knew Zhang Sheng had the ability to settle Wu Moli and Wang Erhai, but he never expected it to happen so quickly.

"Yes, Wu Moli is my good friend, and Wang Erhai is a junior I once promoted, so as long as I speak up, they'll definitely give me some face. I've already discussed it with them: Wang Erhai is willing to transfer 4% of his shares, Wu Moli is willing to transfer 3% of hers, plus the 3% shares General Manager Huo you're transferring, and we can gather 10% for Zhang Tianhe."

Zhang Sheng had a smile on his face, his tone calm yet affable.

He only told part of the truth, never mentioning that Wang Erhai would additionally transfer 11% of his shares to him.

He also didn't tell Huo Guoqiang that Wang Erhai, after this blow, was very likely to withdraw from Liguo Mountain's management.

Huo Guoqiang always felt something was off; Zhang Sheng's efficiency was too high!

When things go against the norm, there must be something fishy!

But he couldn't just ask directly.

Zhang Sheng then said:

"General Manager Huo, I hope you'll keep your word regarding the cooperation agreement we settled earlier."

Huo Guoqiang chuckled:

"Rest assured, I absolutely won't go back on my word."

As a result, that afternoon Huo Guoqiang received Wang Erhai's resignation application.

This surprised Huo Guoqiang greatly:

"General Manager Wang, it's just transferring 4% of shares; is it really necessary to resign?"

Wang Erhai smiled politely:

"General Manager Huo, this has nothing to do with how many shares are transferred. I've figured it out: letting Zhang Tianhe take charge of Liguo Mountain's Market Department will indeed benefit the company more!"

Huo Guoqiang hurried to persuade him to stay:

"If you don't want to stay in the Market Department, you can take charge of another division; there's no need to resign directly."

But Wang Erhai shook his head:

"For me, leaving is the best choice. Thank you, General Manager Huo, for your guidance all along. No matter what, I'll always keep this kindness in mind. By the way, I'll transfer my 11% shares to Zhang Sheng and keep only 15% for myself."

Hearing this, Huo Guoqiang was immediately shocked:

"What? You actually want to transfer 11% of your shares to Zhang Sheng? Why didn't you come and tell me about this?"

Wang Erhai chuckled:

"I'm telling you now, aren't I? Rather than asking me why I didn't tell you, you'd better go ask Zhang Sheng why he didn't tell you."

Huo Guoqiang's eyes trembled, and for a moment he couldn't speak.

Zhang Sheng gaining 11% of shares from Wang Erhai was definitely not a good thing for him!

Because then Zhang Sheng would have 21% of Liguo Mountain's shares!

Plus the 27% shares Wu Moli holds behind the scenes, Zhang Sheng is actually the largest shareholder of Liguo Mountain!

Total shares reached 48%!

And he, Huo Guoqiang, and Zhang Tianhe combined only had 37% of shares!

That way, as long as Zhang Sheng was willing, he could control Liguo Mountain at any moment!

And he, Huo Guoqiang, had worked so hard and finally built this company, only to end up making a wedding dress for someone else!

"General Manager Wang, you can't resign!"

After realizing the stakes, Huo Guoqiang immediately said Wang Erhai couldn't resign.

Because only by keeping Wang Erhai could he use Wang Erhai's 15% shares to check Zhang Sheng and Wu Moli!

Once Wang Erhai left, the power structure would instantly be unbalanced, and Huo Guoqiang would find it hard to defeat Zhang Sheng!

But Wang Erhai smiled bitterly:

"General Manager Huo, it's too late; I must leave."

Huo Guoqiang looked at Wang Erhai and asked:

"Why?"

Wang Erhai sighed. Since he was leaving anyway, he didn't plan to hide anything, so he frankly said:

"Wu Moli holds evidence of me and the women from the Song and Dance Troupe fooling around. If I stay, she'll expose this to my wife. I don't want work matters to affect my relationship with my wife."

Hearing this, Huo Guoqiang was furious and slammed his fist on the table!

With a "bang," the teacup on the table trembled.

"Wu Moli is too terrible! They say disaster shouldn't affect family; how can she use this to control you?"

Huo Guoqiang was indignant. While standing up for Wang Erhai, he also felt uneasy about his own situation.

He was extremely annoyed:

"I shouldn't have established that Public Relations Department in the first place, and I definitely shouldn't have let Wu Moli be the head of it! Now look, the one who played the eagle got his eye pecked by the eagle!"

Wang Erhai gave a dry laugh and remained noncommittal.

"General Manager Huo, I told you long ago that this Public Relations Department would bring internal strife to the company. You refused to listen, so there's nothing I can do."

Huo Guoqiang turned around and complained to Wang Erhai:

"General Manager Wang, I'm not saying this to criticize you, but you take women from the Song and Dance Troupe out so frequently—don't you bear any responsibility yourself?"

Wang Erhai laughed:

"If I said I brought those women out to build good relations with the company's executives, that I myself never touched them at all, and that I didn't even touch Zhou Xiaotong you gave me that night, would you believe me?"

Huo Guoqiang was immediately stunned, his face full of surprise, staring wide-eyed at Wang Erhai.

He felt it was inconceivable!

"You actually never touched women from the Song and Dance Troupe from beginning to end? Then how did Wu Moli manipulate you?"

"It can only be said that Wu Moli is too clever. From the very beginning, we underestimated her abilities. She is not a good-for-nothing vase, but a bottle that looks bright and beautiful on the outside while filled with poison inside."

Saying this, Wang Erhai sighed once more:

"Things have come to this, and I can no longer change the situation. I hope General Manager Huo takes care of himself. This resignation application, I'll leave it here. Approve it when you have time. Goodbye."

Wang Erhai turned and left.

At that moment, he actually felt an incomparable sense of relaxation.

Leaving the workplace's intrigue and scheming, returning to the township to run a farm and live a free life was about to wave and come toward him.

He did not feel the dejection of resigning; instead, he was full of anticipation for the future.

Perhaps just as Zhang Yueran said, life was not just about earning money; there were many meaningful things waiting for him to do!

Huo Guoqiang watched Wang Erhai's departing back, and couldn't help but cover his forehead and sigh.

This time, things had really blown up!

He absolutely should not have broken the delicate balance between himself, Wang Erhai, and Wu Moli!

Now that Wang Erhai had left, an even harder-to-deal-with Zhang Sheng had arrived!

Additionally, Zhang Tianhe, this outsider, might not necessarily be of one heart and mind with him?

This situation was extremely unfavorable for Huo Guoqiang!

Who knows, in the end, he might follow in Wang Erhai's footsteps and be driven out of management by Zhang Sheng and Wu Moli joining forces!

By then, he would truly be making wedding clothes for others!

He thought Zhang Sheng had come for the 5% shares of his Guo Qiang Building Materials in exchange for power, but he didn't know that was just a smokescreen Zhang Sheng had set up for him; Wang Erhai's 11% equity was Zhang Sheng's true goal!

Things had come to this, and he could only accept the facts!

Make psychological preparations to welcome greater challenges!
