In the Yu family villa, Su Tianyu sat in the chair and began to set the tone comprehensively, concisely expressing the ideas he had summarized over the past few days for everyone's consideration.
Kong Zhenghui pondered for a while: "It's a good plan, but once we really start, we'll be completely at odds with the dock people. It won't end until one side is brought down."
"Yes," Yu Mingyuan agreed.
Seeing their reactions, Su Tianbei expressed his thoughts very directly: "Little Yu's thinking is correct. Either we give in now and bring in our own goods, letting them make the big money; or we find a way to wrestle with them. If we succeed, we can plant our flag at the docks, completely open up the situation and channels."
"My Second Brother is right, that's exactly what I mean," Su Tianyu looked at Yu Mingyuan and added: "But Brother Yuan, the company is definitely led by you, you're at the helm. Whether this works or not still depends on your own consideration."
Yu Mingyuan picked up his teacup and sat in the chair thinking for a full two or three minutes before looking up and asking Su Tianyu: "Then when will this matter end?"
"It's simple. When Xu Hu realizes that the cost of blocking our business far exceeds the vested interests, he'll adjust his attitude and sit down to talk again," Su Tianyu replied softly.
Yu Mingyuan took a sip of tea and said decisively: "Let's do it according to your plan. We'll go camping these two days and have a get-together."
"Decided?" Su Tianyu stretched his neck cunningly and said: "Brother Yuan, let's be clear beforehand. You asked me, I gave ideas, but if the final result isn't ideal, you can't let me take the blame."
Yu Mingyuan looked up and glanced at Dog Six: "Don't worry, since your Brother Yuan sits in the general manager's office, he can bear the risks. You just need to be responsible for the dirty work and scheming, and I'll cover the rest."
"OK!" Su Tianyu immediately nodded obediently.
Yu Mingyuan suddenly stood up and said with his hands behind his back: "The company will make some temporary personnel adjustments now!"
The three looked at each other and immediately all stood up, symbolically applauding.
"From now on, Su Tianyu will serve as the company's deputy general manager, mainly in charge of sea business, offense, defense, goods import, and landing. You'll have the final say."
"What about the salary?" Su Tianyu asked.
"The salary remains unchanged, but profit sharing can be arranged," Yu Mingyuan replied.
"That's a bit too much. The company has no business at all now, where am I supposed to get a share from? To put it bluntly, aren't you just trying to exploit my wisdom for free?" Su Tianyu replied, somewhat displeased.
"If you do well, will money still be a problem?" Yu Mingyuan asked in return.
"Alright then," Su Tianyu nodded with a smile.
Yu Mingyuan turned to Su Tianbei and asked: "Are you staying at home to work, or coming to my company too?"
"Of course I'll work with the crown prince!" Su Tianbei replied, not at all foolishly. "My Big Brother can handle things at home."
"You'll be the manager of the port trade department, mainly responsible for goods transportation."
"Big Brother is wise!"
"Zhenghui, you'll be the sales department manager. If this business can continue in the future, the new sales channels developed by the three families, as well as the company's original channels, will all be handed over to you," Yu Mingyuan said with a smile. "You must be fair, okay?"
"Well, this is also an empty title," Kong Zhenghui joked. "Alright, I have no problem with that."
Yu Mingyuan turned to Su Tianyu and said with double meaning: "As I said before, if the business can continue, you must be the company's deputy general manager, not the Su family's deputy general manager."
Su Tianyu of course understood what this meant, and replied jokingly: "Rest assured, just, honest, and upright describes someone like me."
"Hehe, damn!" Yu Mingyuan laughed and nodded. "Alright, that's settled then. Let's prepare and go camping together."
Just as he finished speaking, Big Bai walked over with a grin and asked: "What are you all talking about?"
"We just discussed the company's management structure," Su Tianyu immediately replied. "I'm the deputy general manager, Second Brother is the trade department manager in charge of goods import, and Zhenghui is the sales department manager in charge of distribution channels."
Hearing this, Big Bai immediately asked Yu Mingyuan: "Damn, then what kind of manager am I?"
"For now, you'll be the security department manager."
"What does that mean? You won't let me do any money-making work, but all the helmet-wearing fighting work is my responsibility?!" Big Bai got agitated. "I've known you for less than three months and have been to the hospital for major repairs twice! What's the meaning of this, using my life to cover your smuggling?"
"Don't get excited, wipe your drool, speak properly..." Su Tianbei, who loved teasing Big Bai the most, pulled out two tissues and was about to wipe Big Bai's mouth.
"Get lost!" Big Bai waved his hand. "I quit, I'm withdrawing my shares!"
"Try to keep him," Su Tianyu advised Yu Mingyuan.
"Alright, fine," Yu Mingyuan also found Big Bai quite interesting and said softly to him: "Stay for now, I have other plans for you. But we're not sure if this business can continue now. After things are over, I'll arrange a suitable position for you."
"...Well, if you want to keep me, I'll stay for a couple more days," Big Bai was also easy to talk to and agreed on the spot.
Although Yu Mingyuan's personnel appointments seemed hasty and full of randomness, everyone understood that Yu Mingyuan was actually defining team positions for everyone. He was really preparing to plant a flag at the docks, so they couldn't continue to operate chaotically without any division of labor like a makeshift troupe.
After everyone had discussed, Yu Mingyuan walked to the front courtyard and said to the girls: "I've decided, we'll find a suitable time in the next couple of days to go camping together."
"All expenses paid by Brother Yuan's company, right?" An Qiqi asked, sitting in a chair.
"No problem, I'll arrange everything," Yu Mingyuan waved his hand and replied. "We'll go to sea, have a big yacht, a big barbecue, let's do it!"
"Mingyuan Company is awesome!"
An Qiqi, Doll, and their classmates cheered.
......
At Tianhong Port, in the dock gang's main hall.
Tang Baiqing sat with his legs crossed and turned to ask Xu Hu: "We've blocked the port, but there's no reaction from the other side. Should we put more pressure on them?"
"How?" Xu Hu asked.
"Investigate their previous matters," Tang Baiqing frowned and replied. "I can get the anti-smuggling department involved to investigate their sales end. If we want to deal with them, their company might have to close down."
Xu Hu pondered for a while: "I don't think it's necessary for now. Yu Mingyuan's sales end still has a large capacity for goods. If we do this now, it might cause a stir. If he gives in later, it might affect our profit-taking. We've already put pressure on him, let's just wait and see, have some patience."
"Damn it, I've been feeling a bit irritated lately, I don't want to wait," Tang Baiqing frowned and replied.
Xu Hu looked at him and suddenly asked: "Are you in urgent need of money recently, eager to restart the business?"
