Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

"If this accusatory email is sent out, have you ever thought about the consequences?"

It took A-Zu two hours to edit the complaint email. He wrote it very carefully, but as he wrote, his impulsiveness gradually faded. He calmed down and thought about the consequences of the complaint. "If the complaint is successful and another general manager comes, would you like it?"

"Of course I like her. If she quits, Monkey will do." Ajun's words were full of dissatisfaction with Miss Tang, while Aqi said casually: "It would be even better if she was a rich woman, hahaha."

"Then we have to make it clear. This was planned by the three of us. If there is any problem, we will shoulder it together and if there is any credit, we will share it together." A Zu emphasized and took out another piece of paper. "If there is no problem, please sign here."

Aqi and Ajun looked at the paper and saw that it said the accusation email was sent by three people together. "Just sign it. I have no objection even if I, Lin Deqi, become the general manager this time." Aqi signed his name on the paper.

"I don't mind if you become the general manager, as long as it's not that old lady." Ajun also signed his name on the paper.

"Don't worry, if I become the general manager, I will definitely promote both of you, one to the executive director and the other to the financial director. Am I being nice enough?" Archie said as if he was really going to be the general manager.

A-Zu glanced at him and took back the letter of shared responsibility signed by A-Qi and A-Jun. "Okay, it's done. I'll send it." He pressed the space bar on the keyboard and the report email was officially sent out.

After sending the email, there was no response. A Zu and his friends thought that the head office would not care about this matter. They were all discouraged and went to make up for the physical examination on the weekend. They also planned to apologize to Miss Tang together on Monday, hoping that she would forgive them.

But on Monday, it was past 10 o'clock and Miss Tang had not returned to the company. A Zu and the others wanted to apologize but could not find anyone. At this time, a man who looked like a boss walked in with a briefcase. He pushed open the door of Miss Tang's office and saw that no one was there, so he turned around and asked, "Why hasn't Manager Tang arrived yet?"

When A-Zu and the others heard the voice, they turned around and stood up excitedly. "Boss Niu, we have been looking forward to seeing you for a long time." A-Zu stepped forward and shook Boss Niu's hand vigorously. "Don't even think about seeing Miss Tang before 11 o'clock."

"Usually she comes back after afternoon tea," Archie added.

"I received your email last Thursday, but I was on a business trip at that time. I rushed here from Hong Kong City early this morning." Mr. Niu sat down in the tea room with everyone else and said to A-Zu, "I came here mainly to verify whether the situation you reported is true."

"Every word is true." A Zu almost swore to the heavens, "If you don't believe me, you can ask them. We know very well that you, the boss, are considerate of us. You gave us money to go for the medical examination just for our own good and for the good of the company. But Miss Tang spent all the money without saying a word. I felt really bad when I saw it."

After saying this, A Zu also pointed at A Qi and A Jun. A Qi immediately reacted and continued, "Boss Niu, I think that although you are very rich, every penny of your money is hard-earned. We all want to help you save money and make money. But she is not like that, you know? She has to reimburse more than 10,000 yuan for meals a month. How can our branch make money if she does this?"

After listening to this, Mr. Niu lowered his head and thought for a while, then murmured, "So you all think she is not suitable to be your manager?" A Zu and the other two shook their heads collectively and said in unison, "It is absolutely not suitable."

"Then who do you think is suitable to be the general manager?" Mr. Niu pointed at A-Zu and asked.

"I can't say for sure, but I think anyone in our company who can be the general manager is better than her." A Zu Ruchu said. Since President Niu has come, they and Miss Tang will have to completely fall out, so he showed no mercy.

"Where's the account book? Show it to me." Mr. Niu did not make any further comments on what A-Zu said, but only asked to check the company's account book. A-Jun took the company's account book from the safe and handed it to Mr. Niu. After Mr. Niu took it, he walked into Miss Tang's office and read it carefully.

Mr. Niu was getting angrier and angrier. The company's accounts were a mess, and the performance had not met the target for several months. Miss Tang had explained to him before that several clients were having difficulties in operation and could not settle the payment for the time being. But when he looked at the account book today, he found out that those clients had already settled the payment. The main reason for the non-performance was that many old clients did not renew their contracts. However, there were still tens of thousands of yuan in entertainment expenses every month with those old clients who had terminated their contracts.

He was just having a temper tantrum when Miss Tang finally came back to the company. "Boss Niu? You're here? Excuse me, when did you arrive? Why didn't you notify me?" Miss Tang didn't know the seriousness of the matter yet, and smiled at Boss Niu.

"I just arrived this morning." Mr. Niu said expressionlessly.

"I'm so sorry, I just went to a client's place and came back late." Miss Tang explained why she was late, and then she heard Mr. Niu ask in a slightly dissatisfied tone: "Which client?" "It's Mr. Liu from Eiffel." Miss Tang said.

President Niu had just seen in the account book that Eiffel had stopped cooperating with the branch company, but he did not expose Miss Tang at this time. Instead, he said, "I came here mainly to understand the situation of the branch company. Is there anyone in the company whose performance is better that you admire?"

"Yes, for example, Mr. Kang Qizu." Miss Tang pointed at A Zu who was working diligently at his workstation. "His recent performance has been quite outstanding. He is not late or leaves early. He is very responsible and his business volume is increasing steadily."

Miss Tang was not really trying to take credit for A-Zu. She was just afraid that if she said that there was no one with good performance in the branch, President Niu would think that she was not good at management and could not motivate the employees.

President Niu nodded and said nothing, but asked Miss Tang to call everyone in. After everyone entered Miss Tang's office, President Niu said, "I have carefully understood the situation of the branch. Now I will announce a decision. From today on, Tang Guomin will step down as general manager, and Kang Qizu will be the general manager here."

Miss Tang and A-Zu were both stunned, but their moods were completely different.

Not only did Miss Tang find it hard to accept that she had stepped down like this, but when Grandpa returned to the Kang family and told everyone about it, everyone also found it hard to believe that Grandpa had stepped up like this. "You poor boy, you never tell the truth to the gods. Just tell the old man the truth this time. Is it true or false?" the old man asked with a look of doubt on his face.

"It's absolutely true, guaranteed to be genuine." A-Zu took out a document from his briefcase. "If you don't believe me, just take a look at this appointment letter. It's just that it's all in English, hahahaha."

Kang Qirui took the appointment letter and looked at it, then nodded to everyone to confirm that A Zu was indeed appointed as the general manager of their branch. "A Zu, if it's true, wouldn't the salary be much higher?" The eldest brother said excitedly. He was very happy and excited when each of his younger brothers made progress.

“That depends on who you compare it with. If you compare it with CEOs of listed companies, it’s definitely not comparable. But if you compare it with CEOs of ordinary companies, it’s definitely more or less,” A-Zu said proudly.

"That's fine. We just said that we haven't had tea for a long time. Someone is paying for it this time." The second sister-in-law pointed at Grandpa and said, Grandpa also waved his hand generously, "Isn't it just tea? It's nothing. It's the weekend, okay? I'll treat the whole family to tea this Saturday morning."

"Then after drinking tea, let's go to a four-star hotel to eat shark fin and rinse our mouths." A Yao said deliberately when he saw A Zu's smug look. Kang Qi Rui also smiled and joked: "Then let's do it big, eat shark fin and then go to karaoke, play from morning to night, okay?"

A-Zu quickly interrupted everyone's discussion, "I haven't even received a CEO's salary. Do you want me to pay for my son's milk powder?"

"Hahaha, among all these kids, Grandpa is the most powerful one now. He really brings honor to the family." Grandpa patted Grandpa's arm, "It doesn't matter if you don't have money. I have money. I can help you with the housing first."

"Dad, how do you want to celebrate and bring honor to our family?" A Yao asked.

"Let's have a meal. Invite all the neighbors, relatives and friends as well." The old man looked excited. "We, the Kang family, haven't had such a high official in the past hundred years. We must celebrate well."

Kang Qirui couldn't help it. He said speechlessly, "Dad, do you have to be so exaggerated? What do you mean you haven't been such a high official in a hundred years? The general manager, the second brother and the third sister-in-law are also general managers."

"How can they be the same?" Old Dou disagreed with Kang Qirui's words, "They appointed their own general manager. They can call their company whatever they want. How can they be the same as A-Zu, the general manager appointed by their head office?"

"And San is the section chief of their unit. How can a section-level official in the organization not be as good as Lao Si, the general manager of the branch?" Kang Qirui still felt that his father's reaction was too exaggerated. He was not jealous of A Zu, but felt that if this happened, A Zu would have a lot of trouble in the future.

After all, in everyone's general perception, if you make such a big fuss about your promotion, then your new position must be very capable and competent. Then everyone will definitely ask A Zu for help in the future. Will A Zu help you or not? (End of this chapter)
