“It’s not as simple as just outstanding performance, right? Shopkeeper Chai, I really want to know how you were transferred here. Why don’t you explain it to me?” Lin Yi’s face darkened.

Honest Chai saw that Lin Yi’s expression wasn’t right, and his heart quivered as he immediately reacted. He might look like an honest and weak person, but he was still a businessman. There was no doubt about his shrewdness, and this could be seen from the way he secretly recorded Wei Zhaotong’s debt.

“Vice President, don’t think too much. The outstanding performance is just a cover. There are indeed some twists and turns in this matter. Let me explain it to you slowly.” Honest Chai hurriedly admitted.

“Go on, I’m listening.” Lin Yi said without changing his expression.

“In fact, this wasn’t because of my outstanding performance in the South continent Sea area. On the contrary, it was because they saw that I had expanded the black arc branch’s business, so the higher-ups in the headquarters wanted to pick up the loot. They wanted to suppress me on the grounds that my promotion here was against the rules, and then send their own confidants to take over the black arc branch.” Honest Chai smiled bitterly.

Lin Yi nodded slightly. He’d never been to the headquarters, but from what happened to Hong Zhong, the people at the headquarters were just like that.

Because they had boarded the Qitian escort agency, everyone had initially been disdainful of the black arc branch. In the end, they realized that it had suddenly become a highly sought-after item with abundant profits. Honest Chai, the current shopkeeper, did not have much experience and was also promoted with an exception. It would be strange if no one had such thoughts.

“What happened after that?” Lin Yi asked.

“You also know that other than you and Vice President Hong, I don’t know any high-ranking officials in the headquarters at all. Originally, this matter was already set in stone, and no one would speak for me. In the end, when Vice President Hong heard the news, he rushed back to the Nakajima headquarters overnight and was ready to speak for me.” Honest Chai was a little touched.

“With elder Hong’s character, it’s not strange for him to do this.” Lin Yi smiled faintly. Hong Zhong was an experienced businessman, but Lin Yi realized that he was still a chivalrous man after interacting with him for so long. He would risk his life for a friend. It wasn’t like Hong Zhong wouldn’t do it.

As the saying goes,”there are no unscrupulous businessmen”. Hong Zhong’s personality was actually not suitable for his identity. In many cases, only unscrupulous people could climb up faster, while people like him would be excluded. However, Hong Zhong was very suitable to be an ally, a reliable ally who could be trusted to support him.

“That’s right. However, the situation at the meeting was full of twists and turns. Although Vice President Hong tried his best, he still couldn’t keep his position as the manager of the Jade arc branch. There was no other way. They insisted that it was against the rules to promote locally. Although it was due to special circumstances at that time, it is past the Special Period now. Naturally, they have to set things right.” Honest Chai smiled bitterly.

“Hmph, killing the donkey when it’s done.” Lin Yi could imagine the situation-Hong Zhong must’ve been helpless and dejected as well. He may be the Vice President, but he didn’t have the power to speak up. Sticking up for honest Chai at the last minute would’ve only resulted in him returning in defeat. It was destined.

“If it wasn’t for Vice President Hong’s insistence, this matter would probably have ended here. No one would have cared about me, the previous manager of the black arc branch, and I wouldn’t even be able to be the branch’s Vice President. However, Vice President Hong argued strongly that I had done a good job. Even if I was transferred out of the black arc branch, I couldn’t be dealt with rashly. Otherwise, everyone would be disappointed.” Honest Chai grinned as he said this,”I was really lucky. The manager of the Morning Star branch just finished his transfer, so the position was empty.”

“So you took advantage of the situation and transferred here? It won’t be that easy, will it?” Lin Yi asked, confused.

“Of course it won’t be that easy. One carrot, one pit. This morning Star Branch Manager position has actually been eyed by another higher-up in the headquarters. That person is Wei Zhaotong’s backer, Vice President Ren.” Chai said honestly.

“Hmph, after Wei Zhaotong’s incident, he still has the face to keep staring at this place?” Lin Yi curled his lips in disdain.

“Vice President Hong also raised this objection on the spot. After all, because of Wei Zhaotong, the Morning Star branch here has already fallen out with the Morning Star Academy. You also know the situation in Morning Star City, from top to bottom, everything is decided by the Morning Star Academy. Hehe, the reason why the manager took the initiative to apply for a transfer after his term expired was because he couldn’t do it anymore. Otherwise, who would give up such a lucrative position so easily?” Honest Chai shook his head.

“In that case, although this is the East continent, it’s not a lucrative position. Once it’s sealed by the Morning Star Academy, it can’t even compare to the black arc branch. No wonder it fell into your hands.” Lin Yi said with a smile.

“That’s true, but Vice President Ren still doesn’t plan on giving up the position. But Vice President Hong said that I was personally promoted by you, and you have a good relationship with the higher-ups of the morning stars Academy, especially since your Junior Sister is the disciple of Donghai’s godly nun. It’s convenient for me to come here and carry out business, so the other higher-ups have no objections since it doesn’t affect their own interests. That’s why this matter was decided to go with the flow. ” Honest Chai explained in detail.

“I see.” Lin Yi looked at honest Chai apologetically-it seemed like he’d misunderstood the guy. Even the manager of the Morning Star branch had his fair share of ups and downs.

“These things were all told to me by Vice President Hong in the letter. In fact, even after mentioning your name, that Deputy Director Ren still didn’t want to let go. However, the senior management who proposed to transfer me at the beginning took the initiative to fight with him. He was too busy to take care of himself, so he had no choice but to accept his fate.” Honest Chai laughed.

“Oh? That guy is afraid that if he doesn’t settle you down, he won’t be able to keep his position as the manager of the black arc branch, right? That’s good, let them fight amongst themselves, and you can take advantage of it. ” Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile.

“Hehe, it’s all thanks to you that I’m able to take advantage of this. If it were anyone else, this would be a difficult task. When I first came here, this place was almost forced to close down. Fortunately, I found miss Huang to help me plead for mercy, and finally asked the godly nun of the East Sea to speak up. Only then did we finally restore our cooperative relationship with the Morning Star Academy, and I was able to gain a firm foothold here. Otherwise, it’s really hard to say what would have happened.” Honest Chai rejoiced.

“Haven’t you ever been made difficult by anyone? I remember that there’s someone from the Morning Star Academy who’s in bad shape with Wei Zhaotong. Didn’t that person come to make things difficult for you?” Lin Yi asked. (To be continued.) ”
