After the universally disliked young master is reborn, the older sisters panic.

After taking over the Chen family business, Chen Hao, with the help of Chen Xian, transferred all of Chen's father's confidants away from their core positions.

Margin them out first, then optimize them out last.

He didn't want to exert himself in the front only to have others hinder him from behind.

How could Chen's father not know about such a big move?

That day, he stormed into Chen Hao's office in a rage.

"Chen Hao! What right do you have to touch my people?!"

These people are his old partners of more than 20 years, and they are the key to his return to the position of chairman.

Chen Hao pretended not to know, feigning ignorance, "What do you mean, 'your people'? I'm just making a simple personnel transfer."

"Ha!" Chen's father sneered, "Personnel transfer!"

Why are all the people I'm close to involved in this situation?

One or two could be explained, but more than a dozen were involved, all of whom had some connection to him.

Even a fool would see that.

"Huh?" Chen Hao exclaimed in surprise, "They're all people you're close to?"

He paused for a moment, then continued, "Chairman Chen, you've misjudged people..."

“Wait, how am I bad at judging people?” Mr. Chen interrupted him. “These key personnel have all been with me since the early days of the company.”

I know their character very well!

They are loyal to him only and would never betray him.

Even to help him regain the chairman's position.

They were planning to overthrow Chen Hao's management, but before they could even begin, their plans were crumbled one by one.

Chen Hao had no idea that his temporary rectification had solved a major problem for him.

"Chairman Chen, you've been fooled!" Chen Hao exclaimed with a regretful expression, then threw a stack of documents in front of his father.

"Look, you are the person I trust, and you've always done this."

Mr. Chen flipped through the documents with skepticism, and the more he read, the more alarmed he became. Finally, he slammed his hand on the table and exclaimed, "Impossible!"

"You must be framing them! They couldn't possibly have done such a thing!"

How could his trusted old friend do these things behind his back?!

This kid must have framed them on purpose!

Chen Hao leaned back, spread his hands, and said with a helpless expression, "I didn't find this information."

It was reported by everyone in the company.

He wasn't lying.

I thought it would be troublesome to mobilize Chen's father's confidants, since those confidants were the company's veterans, and one wrong move could cause turmoil.

He could only send people to investigate privately, and set up an anonymous tip box.

Good guy!

The person who received the most complaints was Chen's father's confidant.

By simply verifying the authenticity of their information, we can apprehend this entire group.

"Impossible!" Mr. Chen retorted loudly, pointing to a document. "He managed my accounts for over twenty years, how could he embezzle?"

Chen Hao looked at him like he was an idiot, "Don't you know that accountants can falsify accounts?"

He's clever; he only takes a little each time, so you don't suspect anything.

As if he felt that such a stimulus was not enough, Chen Hao took the documents again and pointed to a line of numbers, "Look, he has embezzled hundreds of millions over the past twenty years."

The Chen family's decline is inextricably linked to him.

The stunned Mr. Chen, upon hearing the last sentence, suddenly raised his head, his eyes wide, and asked, "What did you say?"

"Is it because of him that my Chen family has declined?"

He always regretted asking Chen Hao for money; if he hadn't asked for his help, his Chen family business wouldn't have changed hands.

Ultimately, the reason was that Chen's business was not doing well and he lacked working capital.

Now someone is telling him that the decline of the Chen family is not due to his poor decision-making, but because of his old partner.

"He's partly to blame, but your other old buddies are also largely to blame." Chen Hao nodded slightly.

In the past few days, after gaining a deeper understanding of the Chen family, he realized that it wasn't that Chen's father wasn't working hard, but rather that there were too many parasites.

Mr. Chen worked diligently by himself, but the company was like a sieve, where everyone could get a share of the profits.

The Chen family did not go bankrupt; it was all supported by Chen's father alone.

"No way, they all worked hard alongside me, why would they want to ruin the Chen family?" Father Chen shook his head vigorously, unwilling to believe this fact.

He started from scratch, and without these old partners, he wouldn't have been able to develop his business.

They had made a vow together to make Chen's a big and strong company, and to make it a well-known enterprise nationwide.

The vows we made back then still echo in my ears. How could I have forgotten them after only twenty years?

“I agree with you on that point; they don’t want to bring down the Chen family.”

Upon hearing this, Mr. Chen's face lit up with a bright smile, but the smile slowly disappeared when he heard the next sentence.

“They each embezzled a little, and in order to get kickbacks, they never compared prices and bought expensive materials.” Chen Hao slowly recounted the crimes of these people, “Even if there were a mountain of gold, it wouldn’t be enough to withstand their squandering.”

Mr. Chen opened his mouth, but weakly argued, "Which company doesn't have people who embezzle and take kickbacks?"

They had minor flaws, but their contributions cannot be erased.

His old colleague had also made many contributions to the company; otherwise, he wouldn't have kept him around for so long.

"Contribution? What contribution?" Chen Hao scoffed. "I haven't seen any contribution. All I see is them doing things that harm the company's interests every single moment."

He no longer doubted Chen's father's abilities; he questioned whether his mind was impure.

Otherwise, how could I have been deceived for over twenty years?

"You're talking nonsense!" Chen's father retorted loudly. He took the documents and handed them to Chen Hao. "It's him. He brought in projects for the company."

Without these projects, the Chen family wouldn't have become one of the top companies in Licheng.

He comforted himself, thinking that it wouldn't be a big problem for such a meritorious official to embezzle or accept bribes.

Chen Hao glanced at it, then chuckled, "Oh, him."

Hearing his disdainful laughter, Chen's father became furious and embarrassed. "What are you laughing at! He is a great contributor to the Chen family. How can you make fun of him?"

You have no respect for people!

He criticized Chen Hao and vehemently refuted what he said, unwilling to believe that the Chen family's decline was due to his poor judgment of people.

Looking at his father, whose face was flushed with anger, Chen Hao asked an unrelated question, "Chairman Chen, do you have heart disease or high blood pressure?"

Although he was his own father, he didn't know anything about Chen's father, nor did he want to.

Mr. Chen was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise, "Why are you asking this?"

Weren't we talking about his old friend? Why are we suddenly concerned about his health?

"Oh, I'm afraid that if I tell you the truth, your body won't be able to handle it," Chen Hao replied casually.

If Mr. Chen, who was wholeheartedly committed to developing the Chen family business, knew the truth, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

Even he, an outsider, felt his blood pressure spike when he saw what this group of people were doing.

Mr. Chen glared at him, annoyed. "Don't worry, I'm perfectly healthy!"

As long as you don't make me angry, no one can make me lose my temper.

"Speak up, stop beating around the bush."

He won't get angry as long as this kid doesn't try to take the chairman's position from him.
