Chapter 23 Shareholders Meeting
After Chi Ruiche and the others left, Aunt Wang and several maids were cleaning. They didn't have much work to do, and each of them had a fixed job. Chi Ruiche rarely came back, so they only needed to do their assigned tasks.
A maid was tidying up the dining room and couldn't help but talk to the girl sweeping the carpet next to her.
"Tell me, who did Mr. Chi bring back? I've been here for a year, and this is the first time I've seen him bring anyone back." The girl's gossipy soul was burning.
"I've been here for three years, and this is the first time I've seen him. I should ask Uncle Wang, since he's always been following Mr. Chi around." The girl stopped what she was doing, also very curious.
"Ask Aunt Wang, she'll definitely know."
Since childhood, Uncle Wang has been responsible for picking up and dropping off Chi Ruiche whenever he went out. Aunt Wang, who knows how to make bubble wontons, has been in charge of housekeeping since Chi Ruiche built this manor.
Aunt Wang was holding fresh fruits and vegetables, preparing to put them in the refrigerator. This was at the young master's behest; the family needed to have food readily available these days.
"Aunt Wang, Aunt Wang."
The two girls ran over to Aunt Wang as soon as they saw her, looking like curious children.
"Oh my, that scared me."
Aunt Wang was startled by their sudden action. She patted her chest and pretended to be angry as she looked at them, "You two little girls, have you finished your work?"
"Aunt Wang, who came last night?"
The bold girl is named Ji Yun. She always considers herself extraordinary, thinking that she only ended up in this situation because of her poor family background. She also dreams of becoming a phoenix by marrying into a wealthy family.
"The first chapter of the training said on the first day: don't ask about the host family's affairs without permission." Aunt Wang was practically about to pull out her job manual.
"We're just showing our concern."
Ji Yun, unwilling to give up, tugged at Aunt Wang's sleeve, "Didn't Mr. Chi instruct you to prepare the ingredients last night? How much effort does it take to make those wonton wrappers?"
"Yunyun, Aunt Wang told you, didn't she? It's not a good thing that you have too many thoughts."
Aunt Wang always tried to give her pointers, not wanting her to overstep her bounds.
"understood."
Ji Yun let go of Aunt Wang's hand and turned her head to the side, completely unwilling to listen to her lecture. It's always the same; she always tries to act like an elder while she's talking, even though she's only been here a few years longer than her.
"Then hurry up and get to work."
Aunt Wang carried the ingredients into the kitchen, leaving the two of them staring at each other blankly.
The two were unwilling, but had no choice but to go back and pick up their tools again to continue cleaning.
Aunt Wang watched as the ingredients were placed in the refrigerator, and her hand, which was about to open the refrigerator door, paused as she pondered.
Who could make the young master so concerned that he personally called them to clean the master bedroom, the entire manor must be thoroughly cleaned, and even bath supplies needed to be prepared in advance, just for one night's stay?
Even this wonton was something the young master asked her to prepare. He even had requirements for the types of breakfast, and he specifically instructed her not to include small things like scallions and cilantro on the table. She remembered that the young master was not a picky eater.
Looking back now, I realize that she came to the manor because she could make delicious bubble wontons, but he himself has only eaten them a handful of times over the years.
So the young master did all that just for the person from last night! Aunt Wang suddenly realized, but she didn't know who it was that could win the young master's favor so much.
Chengqing Building
The shareholders' meeting is composed of all shareholders of the Chi Group. Since Chi Ruiche currently holds 45% of the company's shares, which is less than half, major decisions still require the votes of other shareholders, even though he is the current chairman of the Chi Group.
Chi Ruiche plans to acquire seven plots of land in the South District, but most of the competition for the land is currently in the West District, while the South District is still an undeveloped area of Xijing.
However, Chi Ruiche's actions were risky, as they received information that, according to national land planning and construction, the area would not be developed at all within the next five years.
“Xiao Che, we understand that it’s good for young people to be ambitious, but we are currently in a profitable phase and there’s no need to take risks.”
A rather overweight and obese man, around fifty years old, opposed Chi Ruiche's plan.
"Chairman Shi is wrong. The development of the West District is evident to all. If it weren't for Xiao Che's foresight, we wouldn't have our current status."
A lean man pushed up his glasses and glanced at him with disdain.
"Since everyone has their own opinion, let's vote. A majority vote is required for agreement."
Chairman Shi didn't want to argue anymore. He glanced at Chi Ruiche, who was sitting in the upper seat, and looked at them calmly with a blank expression. He then lowered his head and took a sip of water.
Chi Ruiche turned his watch, glanced at them, and watched their so-called vote with an air of composure.
Holding the meeting was just a formality. I just wanted to see what kind of trouble these scoundrels could cause, and incidentally, to show them that the Chi family is not in their hands to make decisions.
As expected, Chi Ruiche's proposal was approved with more than half the votes. Chi Ruiche said nothing more, got up and left, leaving the rest to his special assistant, Lin Kai.
"Assistant Lin, Xiao Che is a little different today."
The person who spoke up for Chi Ruiche just now was Chi Changnan, a member of a collateral branch of the Chi family. According to family seniority, he is Chi Ruiche's uncle.
The Chi Group's shareholding structure is rather chaotic because its predecessor was Dashi Timber Industry, the maternal family of Chi Ruiche's grandmother. Since Chi Ruiche's grandmother was an only child, she was doted on by her grandfather.
Grandpa Chi was originally a son-in-law who married into the Chi family, but Grandma Chi was unwilling to wrong him and insisted on marrying into the Chi family.
Under Grandpa Chi's influence, Dashi Wood Industry was transformed into the Chi family business it is today, but the Shi family and the Chi family each hold a share of the company.
Until Chi Ruiche was chosen as the successor, he integrated the shares of his grandfather, parents and his third uncle and became the highest decision-maker and the true ruler of the Chi family.
"I don't understand what Chairman Chi means."
Lin Kai knew, of course, that every one of these directors was shrewd and cunning, and that every word they uttered was veiled in riddles.
"Assistant Lin is a smart man."
Chi Changping patted Lin Kai on the shoulder, smiling, but his eyes held a cunning and calculating look.
Chi Ruiche had already left, and they naturally wouldn't listen to a mere assistant anymore. As Chi Changping left, the others followed suit.
Lin Kai didn't care at all, after all, Chi Ruiche had already predicted what they said and did.
