Xu Nanfang was a little angry. Even though he had already prepared himself for the possibility of no longer managing the procurement department, he hadn't expected Yu Zhou to refuse him so outright.
It was as if Yu Zhou couldn't wait to kick him out right now.
If this had happened on any other day, Xu Nanfang would have immediately cursed him out. However, the situation was not in his favor.
The uprising he had organized hadn't yielded any results yet. If he were to throw a tantrum at this moment, Yu Zhou might just settle accounts later, and he wouldn't necessarily be able to handle it.
As a result, his entire face turned red. He didn't know what Yu Zhou was trying to do, so it was best to say nothing. After all, he didn't believe that Yu Zhou wouldn't even consider trying to win him over.
"Director, he wasn't just the former procurement manager; he was responsible for almost all the procurement merchants. If we replace him rashly, I'm afraid?"
At this moment, even Liang Xiaohai was a little anxious.
He knew very well what this man had been doing behind the scenes, but sometimes, some things couldn't be resolved with just a strong sense of righteousness.
If Xu Nanfang were to leave without any restrictions, how would they secure their raw materials afterward? After all, those channels were all controlled by Xu Nanfang.
Once he was gone, no one could guarantee that they could perfectly manage all the channels.
It was precisely because of this that Xu Nanfang felt somewhat confident. Didn't you see Liu Bing frowning? Because he also knew very well that if Yu Zhou acted impulsively, things would be even more difficult later.
"Three months' salary, and you resign yourself. You won't be fired, and I can even give you a letter of recommendation."
"My offer is already quite good. Manager Xu, aren't you going to consider it?"
Yu Zhou completely ignored the anxious Liang Xiaohai. It was clear that he had made up his mind to kick the man out of his factory.
Originally, Liang Xiaohai wanted to persuade him further, but upon seeing Yu Zhou's expression, he knew that he was determined to do this, whether it was to kill the chicken to warn the monkeys or to reclaim power. He would not compromise.
"Alas! The days ahead will be difficult!"
Liang Xiaohai could already imagine the problems their factory would face if Xu Nanfang really left, and how Yu Zhou would solve them.
However, that feeling of shared misfortune still lingered in his mind.
"One emperor, one courtier," it was indeed true, but sometimes, when the new director showed no regard for old feelings, they still felt a little uncomfortable.
However, Liang Xiaohai and the others couldn't imagine that Yu Zhou was just a businessman.
Furthermore, before taking over the dried fruit factory, he had no prior dealings with it. Under such circumstances, he naturally wouldn't have any feelings for the old employees after taking charge, especially those who were still hindering the factory's development.
The fact that he had gone this far was already considered a cautious approach. Otherwise, if he had simply fired them, no one could have said anything.
"Three months' salary to dismiss me? Do you know that if I don't cooperate, you won't even be able to receive a single peanut during the harvest season?"
Seeing that Yu Zhou had said this, Xu Nanfang immediately became displeased.
He even had the impulse to burn the bridges. After all, if you're not going to let me off easy, why should I let you off easy?
"I certainly believe you, but have you ever thought that since I dared to take over this dried fruit factory, I wouldn't be worried about raw materials?"
"With money, and the ability to pay in cash, I don't believe I can't buy the corresponding raw materials."
"You, really, are not as important to the dried fruit factory as you think."
Yu Zhou remained unyielding, his expression as if he were stating a fact.
This one sentence silenced everyone in the conference room.
That's right. Even Liu Bing knew about Yu Zhou's background, and naturally knew that as long as Yu Zhou was willing to spare no expense to acquire raw materials and settle with cash, this problem wouldn't be a problem for him.
Did he really lack the strength? Obviously, with Qin Siyue's support, he didn't need to worry about these things at all.
In that case, firing a small procurement manager was not a big deal for a private boss like Yu Zhou.
No wonder he had such confidence and wasn't afraid of the other party's threats at all.
"So that's how it is! I just can't understand why you're giving me a way out instead of firing me outright?"
"Also, is the reason I can't continue at the dried fruit factory because of what happened today?"
Finally, with dimming eyes, Xu Nanfang knew that there was no room for negotiation. His eyelids drooped slightly.
He also knew very well that after today's events, as long as Yu Zhou was still the boss of the factory, he would have no future development and could no longer hold power.
In that case, it was best to get what he deserved.
After all, everyone might have clear goals now, but it hadn't reached the point of life and death.
Moreover, Yu Zhou had already won over those workers, making it impossible for him to seek support from others now.
A dejected exit was already set in stone, so why hesitate?
"No! It's not just because of today's events. The main reason is that I don't trust you with the procurement department."
Yu Zhou said very directly, obviously, his lack of trust was genuine.
Who could guarantee that if Xu Nanfang remained in the procurement department, issues with raw material quality and kickbacks wouldn't continue?
Especially the issue of raw material quality, which was a huge matter for Yu Zhou.
His previous boss was the city government, but now it was himself. He would absolutely not allow anyone to deceive him in this matter, not even the slightest possibility.
"Okay, I understand, and I agree to leave."
"However, before I go, I want to make a deal with you."
"I will hand over all the channels, and you will give me corresponding compensation, how about it?"
Ultimately, Xu Nanfang compromised because he had no other choice.
The main reason was that this reform by the city essentially meant the dried fruit factory was sold directly. Yu Zhou was now the 100% owner.
How could an employee possibly think of going against the boss? Even if you really wanted to, you couldn't win.
Therefore, at this moment, although he was dejected, he could only accept his fate.
"All the channels?"
Yu Zhou repeated the sentence and began to ponder.
Would he agree?
Everyone was thinking about this question at this moment.
