Chapter 99 New Target
Hearing this cold snort, Alex shuddered all over, and immediately straightened his body, staring straight ahead, not daring to move a little.
Although in fact Xu Yi is only less than five years older than Alex, but because of Xu Yi's identity, and because Xu Yi and Heinze have always been the closest friends, In front of him, he naturally placed his status extremely low.
In addition, Alex made a very serious mistake before. If Xu Yikan didn't care about Heinze's face, he might still be in prison now and never get over.
So every time he saw Xu Yi, Alex always felt a little apprehensive.
Xu Yi suddenly called him this time, and he didn't tell him any reason in advance, which really made him extremely uneasy.
"Alex." Xu Yi suddenly called out.
"Ah? Ah, yes! Yes, sir, do you have any orders?" Alex asked cautiously.
Xu Yi glanced at him, and snorted softly: "I heard that you seem to be doing nothing lately, do you feel that staying at the headquarters of the chamber of commerce has wronged you and is boring?"
Alex was taken aback, quickly waved his hand, shook his head vigorously and said: "No, no, the president is not boring at all, really! I have a lot of things to do every day, how can I be bored? "
"Really?" Xu Yi glanced at the extremely clean clothes on his body, and couldn't help but snorted again.
After Alex was transferred back from Anweimar City by Xu Yi because of a big mistake, he originally planned to put him in the transport convoy and let him start as a delivery driver. Then it depends on the situation and then promotes.
As a result, Alex worked for less than two months. I feel like being a delivery driver has to drive around on the road every day. It was too hard, and I yelled that I didn't want to do it.
In desperation, Xu Yi could only transfer him back to the headquarters of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, and arranged for him a idle job with little work and little influence in the administrative building, where he would eat and wait to die every day.
Alex is very satisfied with this job, because this job is extremely idle, and there is very little work that needs him to do every day. The salary is not low, and apart from the lack of actual power, there is simply no bad thing to say.
Heinze is also very aware of Alex's character, and agrees with Xu Yi's arrangement.
If there were no accidents, Alex might stay in this position forever, and Xu Yifan would never think of this person at all.
It's just that Heinze officially announced his retirement today, and Xu Yi suddenly thought of Alex while he was feeling emotional.
Although Heinze is also very dissatisfied with his nephew's personality and other aspects, but this is his nephew entrusted to him by his sister after all, and he has always regarded Alex as his own. It can be regarded as pampering.
Every time he talked about Alex with Xu Yi before, Heinze would blame himself very much. Said that he did not educate this nephew well, so that he could not really stand out.
Xu Yi was unmoved by Heinze's emotions before, but today he was touched by Heinze's departure, but felt that he should help Alex again and give him a chance, which can be regarded as comforting the retired Heinze.
"Alex, are you satisfied with your current job?" Thinking of this, Xu Yi asked.
Alex rolled his eyes, and then nodded vigorously: "Very satisfied, very satisfied! Chairman, the current job is really great!"
"Do you really think so?" Xu Yi grinned. "I originally said that your performance during this time is not bad, and I planned to change you to a more promising job. But since you feel very satisfied with your current job, it seems that there is no need to change."
"Ah?" Alex was startled, then his eyes lit up, he rubbed his hands, and smiled a little embarrassedly: "This... Mr. President, although I am very satisfied with my current job, but... cough, You see, I would be very happy if I could change to a more promising job. Can you tell me what this job is for?"
Xu Yi smiled, took out a document from the table and threw it over.
"See for yourself."
Alex took the file and opened it impatiently. After just a glance, his eyes widened. After reading it, the expression on his face became more and more excited.
After reading it once, Alex couldn't help but read it again from the beginning, and then asked Xu Yi with a face full of disbelief: "Will... Mr. President, you... you really want to send me to be the The director of this office? This is the city of Wimbledon! It is the capital of the Candela Empire! Do you really trust me to go to such an important place?"
"If I say I'm worried, do you believe it?" Xu Yi asked with a smile.
The smile on Alex's face froze immediately, and then forced a dry laugh twice.
"This...hehe, Mr. President, it's normal for you to worry about me...after all, I..."
"Okay." Xu Yi waved his hand and interrupted him. "I've already decided. I'll let you be the director, because you're one of the few experienced talents in our chamber of commerce. It's not a good thing to keep you here all day doing nothing. Of course, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth, it's all for your uncle's sake, otherwise I can find someone else, understand?"
"Understood! Of course I understand!" Alex nodded repeatedly. "Master President, I assure you that this time I will do my best to work and run this office in Wimbledon City to the best! I want to let everyone in the entire Candela Empire know about our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce !"
"Okay, courage is a good thing." Xu Yi nodded approvingly. "Go down and think about the initial arrangements. If there is no accident, after the new year, the office will officially start to build, and you only have half a month to think about the preparations."
"Okay!" Alex nodded vigorously, looked at Xu Yi helplessly for a while, and saw that he really had no instructions to continue, so he saluted Xu Yi respectfully and backed out.
After Alex left, Twisty suddenly said: "Master President, didn't Alex have a record of betraying the Chamber of Commerce before? Why did you give him such an important position? Don't you Worried about him making the same mistakes again?"
"Remember, Twisty. We humans are not like you elves who will completely deny someone based on what they have done wrong. Instead, we will give him a chance to correct. Although Alex did make mistakes before I’ve made serious mistakes. But I’m still willing to give him a chance. Also, I must admit, Alex’s ability in this area is very good, as long as he works hard, I think it will still be quite fruitful.”
Twisty was silent for a moment, then suddenly said: "Actually, you are mainly because of Vice President Heinze, right?"
Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, then smiled awkwardly: "What? You can see these things now?"
"Our elves have a strong learning ability, so it's not surprising to see that." Twisty shook his head. "But Mr. President, I still object to your decision. This Alex... feels very bad to me."
Xu Yi shrugged: "If I told you that my emphasis on the internal market of the Candela Empire is completely different from the importance I attach to the Maro Empire, what would you think?"
Twisty looked blank: "I...I don't know..."
"Well, you will understand the difference later. It's almost time, let's go to the conference room, they must be waiting."
When Xu Yi and Twisty walked into the largest meeting room of the administrative building of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, discussions were in full swing.
From the CEO Kennard sitting at the front to the middle-level executives of Xinfei Chamber of Commerce in the last row, all of them were filled with happy smiles from the heart, and the conference room was full of joy and joy, making it extremely lively .
Seeing Xu Yi walk in, everyone immediately stopped discussing. They all stood up, and stared at Xu Yi with unison. Many people's eyes showed undisguised respect and even reverence.
Xu Yi enjoyed everyone's gaze with peace of mind, came to the president's seat at the top of the conference room, and sat down.
"Sit down." Xu Yi beckoned everyone to sit down, then turned to look at Kennard beside him, and said with a smile, "Okay, Kennard, let's start this year's year-end summary meeting."
Kennard didn't sit down at all, glanced at a year-end report document in his hand, then threw it on the table, looked up and looked around, and said loudly: "First of all, I want to tell you a good news. Our Xinfei Chamber of Commerce this year The annual profit is the same as in previous years, achieving a substantial increase again! Although there is no accurate data yet, it is certain that it has exceeded 50 million gold coins!"
"Wow—"
After a moment of silence in the conference room, there was thunderous applause immediately.
Although Kennard had already revealed to them that the annual profit of the Chamber of Commerce had increased again, no one expected that it would suddenly increase to as much as 50 million gold coins.
You know, the annual profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce last year was only a little over 30 million gold coins, but this year it has increased by nearly 20 million gold coins!
This increase is so astonishing that it is almost unbelievable.
The development of a chamber of commerce will always follow the general law. It may develop rapidly in the initial stage, from scratch, and the increase may seem exaggerated.
But if it develops to a certain level, this growth will gradually stabilize.
In the past few years, the annual profit of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce has increased by several million gold coins every year, until it exceeded 30 million gold coins last year, which is considered to be an extremely fast development.
But this year, it has suddenly increased by nearly 20 million gold coins, which is simply incredible.
"What? Are you all surprised?" Xu Yi smiled and looked at the surprised expressions on the faces of the senior officials of the surrounding Chamber of Commerce, paused, and continued: "Fifty million gold coins shocked you so much, then if you listen to When it comes to my planned profit target for the chamber of commerce next year, I doubt your jaws will drop from fright.”
Everyone looked at each other in surprise. Ankato, the director of the household magic machinery department, swallowed a mouthful of spit, and asked cautiously: "My lord, what are your goals for next year?"
Xu Yi smiled and raised his right index finger: "100 million gold coins."
The meeting room was suddenly silent. (To be continued..)
