The Whale in the Mountains
Chapter 421 Giving You a Job
He had over a hundred things he wanted to say, but considering Chen Xiao’s strength, he could only swallow all those words back down.
Not far away, He Xinyi and He Xinwu, siblings, had different thoughts.
He Xinyi was thrilled, wondering if Chen Xiao was doing this for her.
Regardless of whether it was for her or not, she was extremely excited.
The concept of family affection within large clans was already weak, and He Xinyi had already lost any affection for her grandfather when He Mingsen expelled her from the He family.
She hoped that He Mingsen would suffer the same pain she had.
He Xinwu, however, was thinking that if his grandfather gave all the He family's assets to Chen Xiao, wouldn't that mean he was now penniless?
Thinking of this, he felt terrible.
He wanted to plead with Chen Xiao, but even He Mingsen didn't have the courage to do it, so naturally, this grandson of his wouldn't dare either.
Next, Chen Xiao called Hua Ge and Lao Huang in. These two had been waiting outside.
After Hua Ge came in, Chen Xiao first gave him a task, which was to help liquidate the He family's assets. He wanted to take all of the He family's assets, leaving them with absolutely nothing.
After all, this was what Old Master He had promised himself.
Hua Ge was slightly shocked, but he quickly calmed down.
Now, he wouldn't be surprised by anything Chen Xiao did.
"Alright, boss, leave this to me. I'll make sure it's done clearly and properly."
Hua Ge patted his chest and guaranteed.
Now, in all of Hong Kong Island, he, Ah Hua, might be the only one who dared to speak to Chen Xiao like that. Even Old Huang was a little envious of this.
Old Huang thought for a moment and主动said, "Mr. Chen, let me and Ah Hua do this together. I'm worried that he won't be able to control the He family alone and will cause unnecessary trouble."
Old Huang wanted to please Chen Xiao, but because of his status and face, he didn't want to be too obvious about it.
However, Chen Xiao shook his head at his offer: "If Hua Ge can't even handle this little thing, it will be difficult for him to win people over in the future as a leader. What's more, Old Master He is still here, so I believe there won't be any trouble, because Old Master He knows the consequences of causing trouble very well."
"Don't worry, Master, I will fully cooperate with this gentleman..."
He Mingsen trembled all over when he heard this. He never wanted to experience that feeling of vitality rapidly leaving his body again.
That taste was even more terrifying than death itself.
Seeing this scene, Old Huang was slightly shocked. He couldn't figure out what methods Chen Xiao had used to make He Mingsen so fearful and respectful of him.
At this time, Chen Xiao said again: "Old Huang, don't misunderstand. It's not that I don't trust you that I'm not letting you go. It's just that there's a more important matter that I hope you can help with."
"Mr. Chen, just tell me what you need me to do. There's no need to be polite."
Old Huang said without hesitation.
Chen Xiao nodded, "Well, I just killed Tu Junhou's disciple, Song Fangjin. I need you to help spread this news. The more people who know, the better. I don't believe that Tu Junhou won't come looking for me when he hears this!"
Chen Xiao understood that it was better to let Tu Junhou come to him than to take the initiative to find Tu Junhou himself.
"Okay, please rest assured, Mr. Chen, I can handle this little matter."
Old Huang nodded in agreement.
Chen Xiao waved his hand, "Alright, go and do your work. Go now."
"Yes."
"Yes."
Old Huang and Hua Ge said in unison.
This gave Hua Ge the feeling that he could sit on an equal footing with the Hongmen ancestor, and he felt extremely proud.
After the three of them left, Chen Xiao looked at He Xinyi and asked, "What are your plans for the future?"
He Xinyi thought for a moment and said, word by word, "To live."
Chen Xiao smiled. It seemed that the experiences of this period had stripped away her superficiality and made her understand what was most important.
"I want to offer you a job. Are you willing to take it?"
Chen Xiao asked.
"Yes!"
He Xinyi agreed without hesitation.
She was so poor that she was barely surviving. Now, as long as someone could give her a job, no matter what it was, she would work hard to do it.
Moreover, when you think about it, how bad could the待遇be for a job given by Master Chen?
So she agreed without thinking.
She seriously thought about the skills she had to offer.
"I can do design, I have advanced certificates in finance and law, I know seven foreign languages, I understand equestrianism, golf, rock climbing, and diving..."
She thought for a moment and added, "I can also be a driver, a nanny, and if necessary, I can even be a public relations lady."
"You know so much?"
Not to mention Chen Xiao, even He Xinwu, who was next to He Xinyi, was stunned. His words immediately earned him a glare from He Xinyi.
In large families like the He family, men and women will never be treated equally.
He Xinwu didn't need to know how to do anything. Even if he was just a useless bum who only knew how to eat and wait for death, he could still receive a large amount of property from the He family.
But if He Xinyi wanted to obtain the He family's resources, she had to make herself excellent enough.
Otherwise, she could only wait to be married off to other wealthy families as a bargaining chip for a marriage alliance.
She had been ambitious since she was a child and unwilling to be mediocre. How could she willingly become a bargaining chip?
So she was willing to try many things and demanded that she do her best in everything.
It could be said that, apart from the tabloid news and her know-it-all personality, she was a very excellent woman.
It was just that fate was playing tricks on her, and her gamble eventually made her lose everything.
And it triggered a chain reaction, causing the He family to lose everything as well.
"Master Chen, I wonder what kind of work you want me to do?"
He Xinyi asked with a curious look on her face.
"I want you to manage the He family's assets for me."
Chen Xiao said calmly.
He Xinyi was shocked. Manage the He family's assets? Wouldn't that mean... letting her be the head of the He family!
She originally thought that Chen Xiao only valued her beauty and would at most let her be a vase-like assistant. She never thought that he would let her manage the He family's assets?
If that was the case, then she had turned a misfortune into a blessing.
She had painstakingly and desperately tried to please her grandfather in order to climb to the top of the He family and be able to manage the He family's assets.
She didn't expect that, after all this, she would finally achieve her original goal in this way.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Chen Xiao asked, "What's wrong? Are you unwilling?"
"No, no, no, I'm willing! I'm a hundred times willing!"
He Xinyi said hurriedly, "Please rest assured, Master Chen, I will definitely live up to my mission and help Master Chen manage the He family's assets well!"
Seeing that Chen Xiao was actually letting He Xinyi take charge of the He family's assets, He Xinwu's eyes turned red with jealousy, and he asked with a flattering face, "Master Chen, what about me..."
