He had seen the restraints of the Admiralty.
If he really wants to wait for a fixed salary or for the Navy Department to have a change of heart and give him more bonuses, he will probably have to wait until the Year of the Monkey.
Although the income of their port commanders is definitely ranked among the highest among ordinary people in the United States of Oran.
But you have to know that the commander's income is not just for one person, there are girls in the entire port area waiting for you to support them.
In addition, Lin Lan had just discovered the Tianou Group's oil depot in Lihu County in detail, and had found the secret to getting rich quickly.
After thinking it over again and again, Lin Lan showed a relieved smile on his face.
He took out his cell phone, swiped across it, found a phone number, wrote it down on a piece of paper, and handed it to Akashi.
"Meow? Commander, what's this?"
Mingshi shook his cat ears and took the piece of paper from Lin Lan's hand, not knowing what Lin Lan meant.
"Go to the inner district of the county, find a public telephone booth, and dial this number. Any request you make will be fully met in the name of the Tianou Group free of charge."
After Lin Lan finished speaking, he thought for a moment and added:
"If he has any dissatisfaction, just tell him directly. The Iron Cross fleet still remembers you."
"I understand, meow. Akashi will definitely make good use of this business opportunity, meow. Commander, don't worry, meow."
Akashi was indeed a profiteer, he immediately understood the commercial value of this phone number and showed his signature profiteer sneer on his face.
Chapter 88 Yunhai City
In the western continent of the United States of Oran, in the East China Sea Six Cities Alliance, the most prosperous core city and the headquarters of the Tianou Group - Yunhai City.
This place was once the shipping hub for the United States of Oran to the Teaching Nation.
Four hundred years ago, the navigators of Orlan set out from here, along the continental shelf of the western continent, heading westward towards the seemingly endless Eternal Blue Sea in the west. After overcoming the harsh climate in the ocean and defeating the terrifying sea beasts, they finally arrived at the Teaching Country smoothly.
This powerful theocratic state ruled by the Pope officially entered the vision of the United States of Oran.
From then on, Yunhai City became the most advanced city in the Oran United States' fight against the Teaching Nation.
Whether it was the initial preparation period for war, or the hundreds of years-long honeymoon period after the two sides signed the non-aggression treaty.
Yunhai City has always been an important town built by Oran to educate the country.
Although the United States of Oran was founded on the principles of science and industry, the people of Oran scoff at the magic and divine arts of the Teaching Nation.
But this does not affect the trade between the two countries.
After all, whether it is magic or technology, these are tools that promote human development.
Before establishing diplomatic relations with the Teaching Nation, the Orlan people had already witnessed the Natlan Empire, which was able to train individual strength to a terrifying extreme, and the Nine Islands of Liaozhou, which was able to control the tremendous power of nature to form barriers.
Therefore, having another teaching country that believes in imaginary gods is not unacceptable to the United States of Oran.
As long as the other party does not actively cause trouble, there is no need to fight just because of the different ways of using strength.
Ever since the Tianou Group officially took over all the air traffic channels with the Teaching Country three hundred years ago, Yunhai City has gradually become the hinterland of the Tianou Group.
After the Siren Disaster broke out and the Zhuhai Commercial Association of the five major financial groups came to power, this place naturally became the headquarters of the Tianou Group.
There are still many churches built in Yunhai City today.
Many believers who were trapped here and unable to return to the Kingdom of Teachings settled here, hoping that one day humans would be able to defeat the Sirens and return to their homeland.
Because the Tianou Group is located here, the business here is very prosperous, and Yunhai City is also the only city in the whole of Oran that has a store selling magic props.
Countless passenger ships and cargo ships are constantly coming and going at the docks of Yunhai City, and the patrol teams of ship girls guarding here will cruise along the coast and return to the port every once in a while.
On the streets here, you can see normal Orlan people, handsome and cute ship girls, Liaozhou people with animal ears, believers of the Teaching Kingdom wearing robes and holy rings on their heads, and even Natlan people carrying exaggerated melee weapons...
Oh, the Natlan people who can wield weapons are basically serving as Shang Heng’s personal guards here.
The level of prosperity here is much higher than that of ordinary cities like Dongyun City.
There are even rumors that the Tianou Group wants to make Yunhai City the second capital of Oran, on par with Huanyang City, the capital of the Oran United States in the East Continent.
"I'm so pissed! Listen up, you bunch of losers. If you still can't find out where this bastard Zhang Wei came from by today, you'll all go to the Human Resources Department to get your money and leave!"
Accompanied by a roar, in Yunhai City
In a Tianou Group building, seven or eight employees in the conference room hurriedly left with their notebooks.
Sun Dewang, a fat man in a blue suit, sat in the center of the spacious conference room with gritted teeth.
Looking at the dead-eyed man on the electronic projection screen in front of him, he suppressed his anger and was about to pack up and leave when a staff member came in from outside:
"Mr. Sun, please come over to the board of directors."
Hearing this, Sun Dewang's movements paused slightly.
"I know, I'll come right away."
After taking a few deep breaths and calming down, Sun Dewang walked towards the elevator to the top floor.
The board of directors is located on the top floor of this building.
He had already guessed what the old man on the board wanted to talk to him about.
However, just as he stepped into the elevator, he found that there was a fair-faced young man wearing black-framed glasses and slicked back hair in the elevator.
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Sun, the successor to the board of directors? Have you also been summoned by the board of directors?"
Seeing Sun Dewang walk into the elevator, the young man teased with a mocking tone.
"Yuan Yongle, I see you are in a good mood."
Sun Dewang looked at the young man with impatience. The other party's identity was the same as his, both were the heir to the board of directors of Tianou Group.
Yuen Wing-lok and he are competitors, and the two have always been evenly matched in business.
However, Sun Dewang was responsible for several unfortunate things that happened during this period.
Therefore, Sun Dewang knew that the board of directors calling both of them together this time might not be a good thing for him.
"Whether I'm in a good mood or not is not very important, but you, I'm afraid you won't be in a good mood in a while, hehe."
Sure enough, in the elevator, Yuan Yongle had already started to provoke Sun Dewang.
Faced with the aggressive challenge from his competitor, Sun Dewang chose to ignore it.
After all, he still didn't know what the board of directors was planning. If the board of directors really abolished his status as heir today, he would probably become the subordinate of the greasy man in front of him.
As the elevator slowly reached the top floor of the building, the two walked out of the elevator together.
The floor of the corridor was covered with an elegant brown carpet, and the walls on both sides were decorated with various extremely precious and expensive ornaments. Dozens of young women in cheongsams stood neatly on both sides, bowing slightly to welcome the two men.
Without saying a word, they came to the end of the corridor and stood upright outside a wooden door carved with a giant gull breaking through the waves.
"Sun Dewang, Yuan Yongle, come in."
An old voice came from behind the door, and the luxurious wooden door slowly opened.
The two of them agreed and walked into the house.
In a room surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows, three elderly people with their backs to them are looking out of the building towards the ocean in the distance.
"Sun Dewang, let me ask you, the incident with Zhang Wei in Lihu County, Dongyun City, happened within your jurisdiction, right?"
The old man on the left slowly turned around. He was skinny and over 70 years old, but his eyes were surprisingly clear without a trace of turbidity.
"In reply to Mr. Su... yes."
Looking at the regret in the eyes of the kind old man, Sun Dewang replied knowing that the board of directors might have come to him today to question him.
"You have been close to the Navy Department and the port commanders in recent days. I have to say that we have shouldered a lot of pressure from the Chamber of Commerce for you."
The one who spoke was the old man standing on the right holding a metal cane.
"Not only did you fail to bring us more commercial profits, but because of this incident, the Navy Department openly announced that it would hold us accountable, which is tantamount to blocking many of our business dealings with the Navy Department."
"Thanks to you, Tianou is now caught between the Chamber of Commerce and the Navy Department."
"Sun Dewang, what crime should you be charged with?"
Chapter 89: Desolation and Incoming Call
Although the old man with the cane was very old, his voice was full of majesty, which made Sun Dewang almost want to kneel down, and big beads of cold sweat rolled down his forehead.
Yuan Yongle, who was standing aside, was really happy at the moment. He could not express how happy he was when he saw this scene.
As long as Sun Dewang's inheritance rights can be abolished, his biggest competitor will be eliminated, and the other heirs will not be his opponents at all.
"Director Yang, I..."
Sun Dewang opened his mouth to explain, but his words were interrupted by an old voice.
"That's enough. Sun Dewang, you... have disappointed us."
Standing between the two old men, the old man with a white beard slowly turned around and looked at Sun Dewang.
There was no emotion on his face, as if he had experienced countless ups and downs, and nothing could affect his mood.
"Do you know that the short-sighted people at Tomahawk Military Industry are about to openly challenge our Tianou's business by taking advantage of the stupid things you have done recently? This will be a major turmoil that will shake the foundation of our Tianou."
Upon hearing this, not only did Sun Dewang's eyes widen, but even Yuan Yongle, who was gloating on the side, was stunned.
They had long known that Tomahawk Military Industries had begun building ocean-going passenger ships and was preparing to enter the shipping industry to compete with the Tianou Group, but they did not expect it to come so soon.
Sun Dewang couldn't control his emotions and said hurriedly:
"Director Qing, are those guys from Tomahawk Military Industry really going to start..."
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the old man again:
"I didn't want to get involved in the affairs between you and the Navy Department, but you have been going too far recently, and I can no longer tolerate it."
"From now on, you are stripped of your qualifications as the successor to the board of directors and sent to Lihu County to serve as the district agent."
"This... is also what Director Jian meant. We can't protect you anymore."
When he heard the words "Mr. Jian", Sun Dewang knelt down on the ground.
Unless the three directors in front of him vote unanimously to revoke his agent qualification, his status will be officially revoked.
However, Mr. Jian, who stays in the capital of Oran all year round, usually does not ask about the affairs of the Tianou Group, but once he gets involved, all decisions will be implemented immediately and unconditionally.
This was because, during these hundred years, President Jian had helped the Tianou Group overcome difficulties many times, and even the decision to join the Zhuhai Chamber of Commerce was instigated by him.
Since President Qing said that this instruction was President Jian's intention, it means that Sun Dewang has now been completely eliminated from the qualification to inherit the board of directors.
Although Sun Dewang had long anticipated that the worst case scenario would be the revocation of his inheritance rights, he never expected that this reality would come so quickly.
Even the board of directors did not get to know the strange Zhang Wei in depth, and directly abolished his identity.
"You don't have to be too discouraged, Xiaosun."
Seeing Sun Dewang kneeling on the ground trembling all over, as if all his strength had been drained away, Director Su, who had spoken first, showed a trace of pity on his face and said to comfort him:
"The board of directors has seen your efforts over the years. You are still young. If you work hard, you can at least become a representative of Dacheng and live a peaceful life.
No problem. ”
Yuan Yongle, who was already looking at Sun Dewang with a bad look, immediately retracted her gaze when she heard this.
He understood the meaning of the old man's words. He was warning him that, at least in the short term, he should not take too blatant revenge on the loser.
"Go back and pack your things, then go to Lihu County to take up your post. We will take care of your face and explain your transfer with appropriate reasons."
Sun Dewang also understood the kindness of this kind old man towards him. He stood up shakily, and despite his bloated figure, he still bowed deeply to the three old men in front of him, then turned and left.
Now that things have come to this, there is no need for him to stay and make any excuses.
"Sun Dewang, before you leave, hand over all the contact information of the Navy Department personnel you have to Yuan Yongle."
Just as Sun Dewang was about to reach the door, Director Yang's voice suddenly rang out.
"What? Director Yang, this is absolutely not allowed!"
Sun Dewang refused without even thinking about it. He turned sideways, looked at the three elders on the board, and immediately explained:
"Many people have private contacts with me. Even if I give these contact information to Yuan Yongle, they will not buy it."
"How can you know if you don't try? Are you so confident in your personal charm?"
Yuan Yongle looked at Sun Dewang with an extremely proud smile on her powdered face and continued:
