Chapter 487: Signing the Agreement
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Kang Lan had to admit that Mei Shu’s proposal hit the mark.
However, as a senior, he wasn’t ready to surrender so quickly in front of a junior.
That would make him appear too impetuous.
After much thought, Kang Lan made a relatively balanced proposal, “Mei Shu, how about this? Let’s start with a three-year cooperation. If there are no issues during these three years, we can extend the contract to five years. However, if there are problems with the product quality or if you violate the price agreement we made today, our contract will end there.”
“Uncle Kang, 1 understand your concerns.” Mei Shu replied with an understanding smile. “Actually, what you just suggested, I’ve considered it earlier. That’s why I’ve prepared a second option for Uncle Kang.”
Kang Lan looked puzzled and asked, “What’s the second option?”
Mei Shu poured him a glass of wine, and as the glass landed on the table, it made a light clinking sound.
Kang Lan subconsciously looked at the glass, and Mei Shu, in a calm and composed manner, said, “We can start with a three-year cooperation, but if our collaboration is pleasant during these three years, we can extend the contract to ten years.”
“Ten years!” Even Kang Lan, at this moment, couldn’t control his reaction. “Are you really sure about this?”
If what she said was true, then Kangwei’s business profits for the next ten years would be two percent higher than cooperating with other companies. This was a very substantial gain!
Kang Lan was already very tempted, and he began to look forward to the upcoming cooperation with Mei Shu.
“Of course, it’s true. As long as you sign this agreement today, we have a deal.” Mei Shu gave a positive response to reassure him.
Without further hesitation, Kang Lan carefully read through the contract, ensured there were no issues, and directly signed his name.
Mei Shu’s name had already been signed; she was confident that Kang Lan wouldn’t refuse, which is why she took this trip with full confidence.
The conversation then shifted from business to a more relaxed atmosphere.
Kang Lan was a good friend of Bai Ling in the past and also a business partner. Mei Shu trusted him, calling him “Uncle Kang” throughout the meal. After the meal, Kang Lan unexpectedly showed some affection for Mei He as a junior, and even disclosed a lot of information about other companies to her.
Mei Shu gained a lot, and after seeing off Kang Lan, she returned to the company alone.
Now, as the true leader of the Mei family, she had her own secretary by her side.
The secretary’s name was Tang Mei. Although her work experience wasn’t extensive, she was diligent and very attentive to Mei Shu’s instructions.
Mei Shu was quite satisfied with her.
“Notify the factory that we need to rush the production of a batch of goods. Find reliable people to personally oversee the quality of this batch. If there’s the slightest problem, 1 will trouble the person in charge. However, if this business is successful, everyone will receive a bonus.”
“Yes, President Mei, I promise to complete the task!” Tang Mei immediately arranged the work after receiving the new instructions.
As a secretary who had already graduated from college and worked in the industry for two years, Tang Mei was initially uneasy about the new leader. After all, she heard that Mei Shu hadn’t even graduated from high school.
Appointing an eighteen-year-old to take over such a large company seemed like a joke.
Tang Mei had even prepared a new resume, intending to jump ship to another company. But to her surprise, Mei Shu managed the company in a highly efficient manner, and in just a few days, everything was well organized.
This was far beyond the level expected of a child.
Tang Mei, a half-newcomer who had graduated from college and worked as a secretary for two years, was learning a lot from Mei Shu.
She immediately abandoned the idea of job-hopping and decided to follow Mei Shu.
She was curious to see how far the company, which was gradually declining, could develop under Mei Shu’s leadership.
Recently, apart from attending classes, Mei Shu spent most of her time in the company dealing with matters. Sometimes, she worked until late at night. Each time she returned home, her younger brothers would be waiting for her, sitting together on the sofa.
Mei Shu found it heartwarming but also a bit distressing.
Today, when she returned home, she saw Mei Yan and the others sitting on the sofa, yawning.
Mei Shu changed her shoes, handed her coat and school bag to Zhao Yan, and walked over, unable to hide her worry, “It’s already so late; you should go to bed early. You don’t need to wait for me next time.”
“No, we must see Sister safely home before we can rest assured.”
During this time, the conflict between Mei Shu and Shen Yuan didn’t subside; instead, it escalated. The online criticism against Mei Shu grew louder, and some people even spontaneously wanted to help Shen Yuan vent her anger.
They were concerned that Mei Shu might be harmed by those people. After all, when someone is trying to harm a person, they can do anything.
Mei Shu understood her brothers’ concerns, but just as they worried about her safety, she was equally worried about theirs.
“During this time, you all must be picked up by the family driver. You can’t run around casually. As long as we endure this period, 1 will make sure you all can live a safe and happy life again..”
