“Hello, Li Dong, my name is Long Chenghai, and this is my business card. I am a senior accountant, and I used to be the financial director of a listed company!”
“Hello, Li Dong, my name is Tang Rende, a master chef of sichuan cuisine. I used to be the executive chef at the Tianfu Grand Hotel, a five-star hotel.”
Li Mobai met the two people sent by the system at the school gate!
They both arrived in sedans.
The first snow of 2002 was not a rare sight!
But a sedan in 2002 was definitely a rarity.
Long Chenghai was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, wearing gold-rimmed glasses.
He looked like a financial elite.
His exquisite suit alone was worth a fortune.
His leather shoes gleamed!
He seemed quite out of place amidst the surrounding dilapidated scenery.
The talents gifted by the system upon sign-in were all elites from various industries.
The key was their absolute loyalty!
Unless you mistreated them, they would not be bought off and betray you.
“Welcome. You’ve worked hard. Long Chenghai, from today onwards, you are the financial director of my Shanhe Group. Master Tang, for now, I’ll trouble you to manage the Shanhe College cafeteria. Later, the college will establish its own affiliated catering enterprise, and you will be in charge of the entire catering system!”
Li Mobai efficiently arranged work for the two of them.
Long Chenghai nodded, saying, “No problem!”
Tang Rende readily responded, “I’m fine with anything!”
Immediately, Tang Rende then quietly asked, “Um, President Li, I have some apprentices, and quite a few of them are willing to work under me! Could you take them in as well?”
Hearing this, Li Mobai didn’t hesitate and readily agreed, “No problem, the more the merrier! All salaries will be increased by ten percent!”
Tang Rende: “???”
“I thank Li Dong on behalf of these young fellows.”
Tang Rende’s standing in the Dragon Kingdom’s culinary world could be described as utterly crucial.
Master Chef.
In the entire Dragon Kingdom, across the Eight Great Cuisines, there were, at most, fewer than 120 such chefs.
Excluding at least one-third who could no longer wield a wok and had retired to the background.
That left fewer than 80 people.
On average, each province didn't even have 3 of them.
To call him a contemporary God of Cookery was truly no exaggeration.
His disciples and grand-disciples, while not occupying half of the Dragon Kingdom’s culinary world.
But at least they occupied half of the sichuan cuisine world.
“We are all family. There’s no need to be polite. Now is precisely the time when we need people; I am truly eager for talent.”
As he spoke, a dilapidated van slowly rumbled over.
“This terrible road. I didn’t throw up during my five-kilometer cross-country run, but I almost threw up from being jostled around. Damn it.”
Zhang Weimeng got out of the car with three capable and simple-looking young men.
Upon seeing Li Mobai, he immediately complained.
Li Mobai gave him an exasperated look.
“Why are you acting like a big shot? Aren’t you also from the countryside? Alright, everyone’s here, let’s go. Today, I’m taking over the school.”
Li Mobai was waiting for Zhang Weimeng’s security escort.
At the entrance of Shanhe College, four security guards were lazily propping their legs up, drinking tea, and chatting.
After Sun Zhihui became the principal, his relatives, aunts, and uncles, etc., were all arranged to loaf around at Shanhe College.
The women worked in the cafeteria or managed the warehouse.
The men became security guards or dormitory managers.
In short, they almost brought their dogs to the college to be patrol dogs.
“He’s here. That little brat is here. Didn’t Zhihui say this brat was very arrogant? Let’s go, block him, don’t let him in.”
The security captain was Sun Zhihui’s uncle.
Relying on his nephew being the principal, he was quite arrogant at school.
Learning that Li Mobai dared to disrespect Sun Zhihui, he insisted on helping his nephew regain face.
“Let’s go.”
Several lazy security guards, united in their indignation, stepped forward to block the way.
“Stop, all of you!”
Before they could finish speaking, Zhang Weimeng gave a look, and the two strong ex-soldiers behind him directly pressed their faces, each holding two security guards, forcibly shoving them back into the security booth.
It was all about being swift and elegant.
Not giving them a chance to react.
Four cars drove directly into the school.
Li Mobai had a list provided by Chen Qingyun, which showed that Sun Zhihui had five staunch confidants, all part of Shanhe College’s management.
Then there were some mid-level lackeys.
Sun Zhihui and the other six would be dismissed today.
The mid-level lackeys, if they were sensible, could stay and be observed.
But they would not be given important positions.
“Zhihui, this is bad. That little brat Li Mobai has brought people and stormed in. He’s very arrogant.”
Inside the security booth, the security captain had just finished informing Sun Zhihui when Li Mobai stormed in.
“Sun Zhihui, have you gotten the results of what I asked you to investigate?”
Li Mobai said impatiently.
“How could it be that fast? You’re too impatient. I reported to Li Dong yesterday, didn’t he call you?”
Sun Zhihui hadn’t expected Li Mobai to act so quickly.
“Who does he think he is? I am the chairman of Shanhe Group. Since you can’t investigate, then you shouldn’t be this principal. Shanhe Group is terminating its employment relationship with you. Go find Li Zhengxin. Given your loyalty as a dog, he won’t treat you unfairly.”
Li Mobai signaled him to get lost.
“Little Li Dong, you are going too far. You are disrespecting Principal Sun too much. If you act like this, we can’t do our jobs!”
A middle-aged man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a slightly oversized suit criticized.
A group of Shanhe College management personnel arrived upon hearing the commotion.
They came to support Sun Zhihui.
During the meeting yesterday, they had already formed an offensive and defensive alliance.
They intended to collectively pressure Li Mobai.
“Who are you?”
Li Mobai scoffed.
“Zhao Youtian, Dean of the College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering!”
The middle-aged man said proudly.
“Oh. Dean Zhao. You mean, if I fire Sun Zhihui, you’re also resigning, is that right?”
Li Mobai smiled.
“It’s not just Dean Zhao, I’m also resigning!”
Another slightly shifty-looking middle-aged man spoke up.
“I am Zhou Zhiyuan, Dean of the College of Economics and Management!”
“And me, Qian Feihu, Dean of the College of Food Engineering!”
“Wu Jianghe, Dean of the College of Medical Engineering, stands with Principal Sun!”
Several of Sun Zhihui’s confidants jointly pressured Li Mobai.
At this moment, they all felt certain of victory.
To outsiders, it felt like the Eight Great Sects besieging Bright Summit.
This was a forced abdication.
But Zhang Weimeng, who knew Li Mobai well, found that this kid was not only not flustered but even very excited.
“Who else?”
Li Mobai feigned an exasperated expression.
Shanhe College has eight colleges under its jurisdiction: the College of Economics and Management, the College of Mechanical and Electrical Engineering, the College of Medical Engineering, the College of Food Engineering, the Education College, the Art College, the College of Architecture and Engineering, and the Information Engineering College.
Now, the deans of Economics and Management, Mechanical and Electrical, Food, and Medical colleges have revealed themselves.
Just as on the list provided by Chen Qingyun.
There was also one more, Gao Mingzhi, the Vice Principal in charge of finance and logistics.
He was a core confidant of Sun Zhihui.
However, Gao Mingzhi was quite cunning; he felt that this situation was a bit off.
Li Mobai was being forced, but his panic seemed to be an act.
Was he not, perhaps, digging a pit and waiting for them to jump in?
Did he want to catch them all in one go?
But did he have that ability?
Without his grandfather, Li Kaijiang, he was nothing.
“Vice Principal Gao is also with us. We don’t want to go against you. But if you insist on moving Principal Sun, we absolutely will not agree!”
Zhao Youtian directly dragged Gao Mingzhi into the fray.
Alright.
Everyone’s here.
“If you want to dismiss Principal Sun, then we’re also resigning!”
Zhou Zhiyuan shouted, showing great loyalty.
Li Mobai: “???”
“Hahaha. Double happiness, no, let me count, this is sixfold happiness! It’s a deal, the six of you can pack up and get out! Today is truly a good day!”
Li Mobai, at this moment, transformed into the soccer coach from “Hello Mr. Billionaire.”
He was so happy he could barely breathe.
