"Yes!"
The leaders nodded busily.
One of the portly leaders mustered the courage and said, "Chairman, the poor performance this month is actually because the head of the Xiao family is constantly causing trouble for our company, and there's nothing we can do about it!"
"If Ye Yanran causes trouble, you should find a way to deal with it. If you can't even come up with a way to handle it, then what use do I have for you leaders here? I can manage the company perfectly well by myself!"
Dongfang Mei said, continuing, "When you go back today, everyone will write a proposal to deal with Ye Yanran.
"I will personally review your proposals in three days. If you disappoint me again this time, it won't be as simple as withholding a month's salary. You all know very well that our company does not keep useless people."
"We'll go back and prepare the proposals right away!"
The leaders hurriedly agreed.
"Alright, you can all leave now! Go do what you need to do," Dongfang Mei said.
After the leaders greeted them, they left the office one after another.
Once they had all left, Jiang Yi walked into the office.
"Why are you so angry?" Jiang Yi asked.
"They've disappointed me too much!"
Dongfang Mei took a deep breath. "My mother was too kind. When she managed our Dongfang family's company, she didn't have much control over her subordinates, which led them to develop lazy and unproductive habits.
"After I took over these companies, I found them to be in complete disarray. Facing Ye Yanran's provocations, they did nothing and just watched as their business was snatched away by Ye Yanran. Thinking about it makes me angry.
"It is indeed infuriating!" Jiang Yi agreed.
"I've made up my mind. Considering they've worked for the company for so many years, I'll give them another chance. If they disappoint me again, I'll have them all leave.
"At that time, I'll recruit some capable people. As long as there's money, any business elite can be found!" Dongfang Mei declared.
Dongfang Mei had made up her mind.
Jiang Yi remained silent. This was the Dongfang family's company business, and as an outsider, it was not appropriate for him to interfere.
"You're pregnant. You should put company matters aside for now. Your health is the most important thing," Jiang Yi said.
"It sounds like you're concerned about the child, not me," Dongfang Mei said, feigning a bit of anger.
"I'm concerned about both you and the child!" Jiang Yi replied.
"That's more like it!" Dongfang Mei said with a smile.
Soon, Dongfang Mei's beautiful brows furrowed again.
"I wish I could rest properly and not deal with these troublesome matters, but I am the head of the Dongfang family. If I don't manage it, the Dongfang family will surely fall. I cannot let the Dongfang family be ruined in my hands.
"The only person in the entire Dongfang family who can help me is my mother, but her health has not been good lately. The doctor said she cannot overexert herself, or her body won't be able to handle it!"
Hearing this, Jiang Yi also felt a little helpless.
"In the past, I had hoped Dongfang Xun could help me, but given his current state, if the Dongfang family were handed over to him, he would surely squander it all!" Dongfang Mei sighed deeply.
"How about this, hire more talented people for the company, so you won't be so tired!" Jiang Yi suggested.
"This is the only solution now, but from the current situation, it's simply not enough time. Even if we recruit a large number of talented people for the company, they need to be trained slowly.
"As you know, Ye Yanran is already eager to destroy our Dongfang family. It's too late to rush things at the last moment," Dongfang Mei said.
Jiang Yi didn't know what else to say!
"Actually, I've thought of a good plan, but I'm afraid you won't agree!" Dongfang Mei said.
"What plan?" Jiang Yi asked.
"All the companies of our Dongfang family merge with your Tiansheng Group. With this, our strength will be greatly enhanced.
"More importantly, many problems that we cannot solve will be easily resolved. Even if Ye Yanran has your uncle backing her, we will have a significant chance of winning!" Dongfang Mei stated.
Jiang Yi was stunned upon hearing this.
He had to admit, Dongfang Mei's idea was very bold.
However, it was indeed a good plan.
"I agree, but your Dongfang family members probably won't agree, and neither will my mother-in-law. Doing this would essentially mean handing over all the Dongfang family's companies to our Jiang family!" Jiang Yi said.
"You don't need to worry about that. Actually, I've already discussed it with my mother, and she doesn't have any objections. She said that our two families are already one now, and there's no need to be separate. She also said that this is the only way to protect our Dongfang family's companies." Dongfang Mei said.
Jiang Yi hadn't expected Liu Hong to be so agreeable.
"What about your Dongfang family members? They should object, shouldn't they?" Jiang Yi asked.
"They won't object."
Dongfang Mei said with great certainty, "Ever since our Dongfang family's companies started cooperating with Tiansheng Group, they've all made a lot of money. If these companies were merged directly, they would earn even more.
"No one dislikes earning less. They definitely won't oppose something that allows them to earn money."
Jiang Yi smiled faintly.
It was still Dongfang Mei who understood the members of the Dongfang family.
"The only thing I'm worried about is your mother not agreeing!"
Dongfang Mei said, "As long as we can get your mother's approval, this matter will be settled!"
"It's fine, we'll talk to her when we get back later," Jiang Yi said.
"Okay!"
Dongfang Mei nodded.
"Oh right, I almost forgot the main reason. Your secretary just told me that you had something to discuss with me. Is it about this matter?" Jiang Yi asked. Su Dan Novel Network
"Of course not!"
Dongfang Mei said with a smile, "I wanted to see you about Changsun Hao's matter."
Jiang Yi was taken aback. How did Dongfang Mei know about Changsun Hao?
Dongfang Mei explained the whole situation.
It turned out that Dongfang Mei had accidentally learned that Changsun Hao had gone to find trouble with Jiang Yi. Worried that Jiang Yi might act against Changsun Hao and offend Changsun Xiong, she had secretly arranged for her subordinate, that bald man, to deliberately find trouble with Changsun Hao and beat him up.
Dongfang Mei's objective was to prevent Jiang Yi from acting against Changsun Hao.
As long as Jiang Yi didn't take action, he wouldn't alienate Changsun Xiong.
"My secretary has probably already arranged for that bald man to leave the Royal Hotel, and he will be leaving the capital soon.
"By then, everyone will think this was just a personal feud between the bald man and Changsun Hao, and that Changsun Hao was beaten up due to a verbal dispute. No one will suspect you!"
