âBoss, I know I made a mistake at work. I will try my best to correct it. Please give me another chance. I will do better, I promiseâ
Wang Dabao took his bossâs words as sarcasm. He thought that the boss was mocking him for considering himself the boss and not taking his work seriously.
When the manager heard Wang Dabaoâs words, he came back to his senses. He immediately glared and said, âWang Dabao, you still have the face to plead for mercy? Our company doesnât keep a good-for-nothing like you. Now! Immediately! Pack your things and leave.â
The boss turned to look at the manager and secretly gave him a signal. He wanted to help this guy.
However, the manager had misinterpreted his bossâs intention. Most importantly, he couldnât believe what his boss had said was true.
The manager shouted at Wang Dabao again, âWang Dabao, what are you still doing here? Hurry up and get lost!â
The managerâs face stiffened. He knew that he couldnât help this manager anymore.
Wang Dabao had already been scolded by the manager for more than half an hour. For the sake of this job, he had been holding it in all along. Now that he heard that he was going to be fired, he could not bear it anymore.
âI quit!â Wang Dabao stood up abruptly, and a fierce look appeared in his eyes. He pointed at the managerâs nose and scolded, âB*stard, who do you think you are? Other than showing off in front of us, what else do you have? Iâve had enough of you. Even if you donât fire me today, I wonât do it anymore.â
âYou⦠Youâ¦â The manager was frightened by Wang Dabaoâs fierce look that he took two steps back.
Wang Dabao turned to look at the boss and said, âBoss, Iâm working here because I feel that youâre a good boss. But let me remind you, if you keep this manager, then donât even think about running your company well. Fire this bastard sooner rather than laterâ
The bossâs face was filled with smiles as he said, âDabao, now itâs up to you to decide. Youâre the boss. If you want to fire him, then fire him.â
âHehâ¦boss, with your words, my time here wasnât in vain. Goodbye.â Wang Dabao still didnât take his bossâs words seriously. He picked up the box by his feet and was about to leave.
The boss grabbed his arm and said, âDabao, you canât leave. Donât be in such a hurry. Letâs quickly sign the contract.â
Wang Dabao said gratefully, âOh, thank you, boss. Give me the resignation contract.â
Resignation and firing were two different concepts, and they had different implications for Wang Dabao.
The boss said, âWhat resignation contract? Itâs the company transfer contract. Once itâs done, youâll be the boss and Iâll leave.â
âNo! Boss, what kind of act are you putting in?â Wang Dabao felt that the boss was not joking.
The smile on the bossâs face became even wider. He said, âHeh heh, Dabao, I really didnât expect you to have such a powerful relative. Just now, President Li came and acquired our company and then he handed the company over to you.â
âBoss, thisâ¦this joke of yours is really hilarious, hah hahâ¦â The manager burst into laughter, but despite the loud laughter, his face didnât reflect any amusement. He appeared extremely unnatural.
The boss rolled his eyes and said, âCan you joke about something like this?â
The managerâs smile stopped abruptly, and his eyes were filled with fear.
Wang Dabao stuttered, âBut I donât have any relatives who are bosses.â
âIâm not sure about that. Heâs still in my office. Youâll know when you go in and take a look.â
Wang Dabao quickly followed the boss into the office, but there was no one in the office.
âWhen did he leave?â The boss muttered and pulled Wang Dabao as he said. âHe is the manager of Jinxin Investment Company, Manager Li Ping.â
âI donât know him,â Wang Dabao said with absolute certainty.
âIâll go. Iâll go confirm it then. Donât get it wrong.â The boss was shocked. If he signed the contract with the wrong person, he would be in big trouble.
He had always been in contact with Li Ping over the phone. At this time, he hurriedly called him.
The call went through, and Li Pingâs slightly apologetic voice came from the other end. âOld Wang, Iâm really sorry. There have been some changes in the investment in your company. Itâs basically impossible to proceed with the investment. You figure something out.â
âWhat? President Li, didnât you come to my company just now?â
âNo, this deal canât be done anymore. Why would I go to your place? If thereâs a chance in the future, letâs keep in touch.â After saying that, Li Ping hung up.
The boss was dumbfounded. If it wasnât Li Ping, then who was the young man who came earlier?
Wang Dabao pursed his lips and said, âBoss, since itâs not me, Iâll leave.â He wasnât disappointed at all because he didnât believe it was true either.
Just as he was about to leave, the boss shouted in surprise, âDabao, itâs you.â
âWhat?â Wang Dabao was shocked by the bossâs shout.
âLook, look! Thereâs a note here.â The boss picked up the note excitedly and read aloud, âItâs that fatty Wang Dabao from your company.â
Wang Dabao was stunned. He said carefully, âBoss, what does that person look like?â
The boss immediately recounted the incident, emphasizing that the person bought the company to avenge him because he saw that he was being scolded.
The first person that came to Wang Dabaoâs mind was Ye Xiaofei. It seemed that only Ye Xiaofei would help him take revenge when he was bullied. Moreover, the boss described that personâs appearance to be very similar to Ye Xiaofei.
However, he immediately dispelled this idea. Ye Xiaofei didnât even have money for a taxi yesterday. Obviously, he was very poor. It was definitely impossible for him to spend five million to vent his anger.
Could it beâ¦like in the novel, he had a very powerful relative who was coming to acknowledge him. He actually had a huge amount of wealth waiting to be inherited.
The boss forcefully patted Wang Dabaoâs shoulder and said, âAnyway, you canât be wrong. Letâs hurry up and get the contract.â
Wang Dabao hurriedly said, âHold on! Hold on! Boss, how much debt does our company have?â
Wang Dabao might look chubby and simple-minded, but he wasnât lacking in shrewdness. Although he worked in this company, he didnât know if the company was in debt. If the company was burdened with a lot of debt, wouldnât he have to bear this debt if he took over?
The boss said,â Our company doesnât have any external debts. I personally raised the initial capital. Now, there are still more than 100,000 in the account. Itâs enough to pay next monthâs salary.â
âDabao, donât worry. When I pulled in the investors, I prepared the companyâs balance sheet. Youâll know when you see it.â
Wang Dabao looked at these documents and knew that the company was just short of cash flow. Other than that, there didnât seem to be any other issues.
âDabao, letâs hurry up so that you can vent your anger on the manager.â
Upon hearing this, Wang Dabao slammed the table and shouted with his eyes wide open, âDamn it, Iâll sign!â
