Chapter 260 Angry Middle Management
Zhang Bo easily calmed Zhang Caidong, and even achieved a logical closure through Zhang Caidong's self-thinking.
So he started chatting with Zhang Caidong about the past again, which deepened their relationship.
"I have to say, life in our urban villages was really good in the past. Without demolition, we couldn't make a lot of money, but everyone had a building with forty or fifty rooms. As long as the rent was lower, a lot of migrant workers would come to live in our urban villages." Zhang Caidong was also full of emotion at this time, and he thought of the past when he was slightly drunk.
"Yes, at that time every household had 20,000 to 30,000 yuan a month. Compared with those workers who only earned 4,000 to 5,000, 5,000 to 6,000 yuan, or even more than 10,000 yuan, we really lived a very happy life at that time." Zhang Bo also nodded with emotion.
"But later on, it seems that Brother Bo was adopted with one of your brothers. I remember that Brother Zhang Bo's family died early and you became an orphan. Your life was quite poor." Zhang Caidong suddenly remembered something.
"Yes, at that time, my cousin and I were adopted by a wealthy businessman, who provided for us from elementary school to middle school and high school to college." Zhang Bo finished charging. His expression did not change, he just smiled and said: "Then the undead rule came, and the undead monsters began to wreak havoc, and everything was gone."
Zhang Bo had some special reactions to Zhang Caidong's words, and even showed some fear.
Because he didn't understand why Zhang Caidong suddenly asked this.
To know.
This matter has always been a relatively private topic for him. He has never told anyone about it. Apart from those people who came from the urban villages, basically no one knows about it.
And now Zhang Caidong, who also came from an urban village, actually started talking to him about this topic. Moreover, the wealthy businessman who adopted him was actually Mr. Yang from the Green Leaf Group, and now he was working with him on a plan to subvert Dehrim.
Zhang Caidong's question was indeed frightening.
"Oh, what a pity. If you could continue to develop, you would probably be a graduate student or even a master's or doctoral student now." Zhang Caidong continued to speak, but he did not see any change on Zhang Bo's face. Zhang Bo's acting skills were already very good, and now everyone was slightly drunk, especially Zhang Caidong, who drank a lot of malt liquor, so of course he could not notice the slight change in Zhang Bo's expression.
"Well, almost, but most likely just a graduate student." Zhang Bo also waved his hand at this time, and said with a smile: "It's useless to say all this. In this era, what can he do even if he is a doctoral supervisor? Even if he was once a national project supervisor, what can he do? Isn't it the same? If he should die, he will die. If he should live in misery, he will live in misery, right?"
"Yes, yes, if the old Blue Star world still existed, we would not be from the same world, Brother Bo. I used to envy you for your good academic performance and the help of noble people. I just live in a home of a drunkard and a gambler. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. My father likes to drink and go to ghost parties everywhere. My mother likes to play mahjong and is away from home all day long. I grew up alone, which made me have a sour and mean personality before." Zhang Caidong's tone became more and more uncomfortable at this time, and even his eyes were a little red.
However, Zhang Bo also noticed at this time that Zhang Caidong seemed to be really reminiscing about the past when he lived in the urban village and did not say much, nor did he seem to notice much.
At this point, Zhang Bo's tone became more sincere. He reached out and patted Zhang Caidong on the shoulder: "Isn't everything getting better now? We have walked this path before. Now we just need to move forward with big strides. The two of us brothers will support each other and move forward, and everything will be fine."
"Yeah, everything will be fine." Zhang Caidong talked about his past life again, and suddenly raised his head to look at Zhang Bo, with a complicated tone: "Tell me the truth, Brother Bo, tell me the truth, is something going to happen now? I always feel a little uneasy."
"What's going to happen? Don't be suspicious. It's not that big of a deal." Zhang Bo reached out and patted his shoulder again, comforting him, "You're just thinking too much. It's just arresting some remnants of the diesel company. What else can happen? Even if there is a possibility of expanding Zhou Lian's scope, it actually has nothing to do with the two of us. When Lord Shen Mu asks about it, you can just say that it was an internal fight among the humans on Blue Star, some dirty and conflicting things between the senior and middle managers, isn't that enough?"
"That being said, I always feel something is not right, especially those senior and middle managers who have been behaving themselves to the fullest before, but now they suddenly find an excuse and are about to have a conflict. I always feel something is wrong." Zhang Caidong narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhang Bo: "I feel like someone is really fanning the flames here."
"Then who do you think it is?" Zhang Bo touched his chin as if in confusion and looked at Zhang Caidong at the same time.
"I don't know." Zhang Caidong said honestly, "It's just that my sixth sense vaguely feels this way, but you are a prophecy mage, you should be able to sense some small contradictions here, or some weird feelings."
"It feels a bit weird, but we shouldn't worry about it. The remnants of the diesel company were personally ordered by Lord Shen Mu, and Lord Shen Mu also gave instructions personally. We are all outsiders, and we shouldn't wade into this muddy water lightly." Zhang Bo said sincerely to Zhang Caidong, "Let the senior and middle managers fight each other, and we just need to watch the show behind the scenes. You sit here in the middle and mediate the conflicts between these guys. That's enough. Even if there are other problems, they are their own business. What I mean is that you must be a good steward, and this position must be yours. At that time, even if I take the blame, it will be better than you taking the blame. After all, you know that you are the backbone."
"Thank you, thank you Brother Bo, I understand that you are doing this for my own good." Zhang Caidong was even more moved at this time. He knew that Zhang Caidong's words were actually a protection for himself.
Zhang Caidong didn’t think too much at the moment, and he didn’t expect that Zhang Bo in front of him had already started his big plan, and he was not going to protect him as he said, but wanted to drag him down completely.
After all, only Zhang Bo himself knows what he has done, and even within the Green Leaf Group, only the top executives know about it.
His plan was really too secretive.
And it's really like a chameleon, and a highly poisonous chameleon at that, quietly lurking in the most critical position of Dehrim, and everything is waiting for the big plan to go ahead.
No one knew that this chameleon, which had already completed its disguise, was accumulating venom and was about to bite them fiercely. When that happened, this bite would be extremely deadly.
"Okay, you should have a good rest too. I won't talk any more here. It's almost time." Zhang Bo finished the last sip of malt liquor in his glass, then stood up and looked out the window. The sky had turned dark, but it was still gleaming with a faint white light, as if the moon was still illuminating the entire Dehrim. He said goodbye to Zhang Caidong and left the town to live. Zhang Caidong also personally supported himself to see Zhang Bo off to his residence, and then felt a sense of fatigue all over his body. He couldn't help yawning, and also came to his room, lay on the bed and fell asleep drowsily.
However, after Zhang Caidong fell asleep, Zhang Bo did not go towards his residence in the town.
Instead, he looked at the streets in the town area where a curfew was enforced but not strictly enforced, pursed his lips, turned a corner, and walked quickly towards a spacious open space nearby.
That is the area where middle-level managers often gather.
Nearly 70 to 80 middle-level managers had already appeared there. They were very quiet and no one was talking. They just found a corner and sat there in groups of three or four, waiting for someone to come.
It was not until Zhang Bo appeared at the edge of the open space that everyone stood up, which meant that the person they were waiting for was Zhang Bo.
"Bo Ge is coming, Bo Ge is coming, hurry up, hurry up, everyone get up."
"That's right, it's Bo Ge coming over, let's hurry over, let's hurry over."
"This is too serious. We must find Bo Ge and let him explain everything. Everyone come here and tell him everything you know."
"Don't waste time, come here quickly. It's not easy for Bo Ge to come here. The fact that we were called here by Bo Ge shows that Bo Ge trusts us."
At this time, the middle-level managers also spoke softly and called on everyone else to come over quickly.
These seventy or eighty reshaping managers were already standing in front of Zhang Bo, all looking at him eagerly.
"Well, everyone, be quiet. I understand what you mean. That's why I notified others and called you over. In my heart, you are the most trustworthy middle-level managers, different from the other forty or fifty middle-level managers." Zhang Bo nodded at this time, raised his hand, waved to these people, and at the same time signaled them to stop talking and listen to him.
"Brother Bo, we feel relieved after hearing your words. You don't know how anxious we were after hearing about this. Those senior managers just want to pick on us and make things difficult for us."
"That's right, they just want to make things difficult for us, and they are also trying to organize the Pearl League. We were just a little dissatisfied with them before, but now they are using this as an excuse to suppress us, and they seem to be quite rude to us one by one."
"They were not only rude and suppressive, they wanted us to die. They even wanted us to hand over our human followers and put us under house arrest. But we didn't listen to them and united to come here."
"What's going on? Brother Bo, you have to say something. We are very nervous now. If a conflict really happens, those senior managers will definitely not let us go. Besides, we are not the remnants of the Diesel Company. Before, most of us were just ordinary people in the Diesel Company's territory."
"That's right, Brother Bo. We are just ordinary people. We have no choice about where we stay. We have worked in Green Leaf Group and Diesel Company before. Now they suddenly say that we who worked in Diesel Company are likely to be the remnants of Diesel Company. How is that possible?"
"They are just looking for trouble. We are really forced into a corner. We have been questioned and interrogated all day long. It seems that they want us to admit that we are the remnants of the diesel company."
"Even after seeing us banding together, those guys directly said that we were all remnants of the Diesel Company, and that we had formed our own small gangs to oppose Lord Shen Mu and Dehrim, and that we were the fishing gang of the Diesel Company. How is this possible?"
"Brother Bo, you have to do justice for us. We went to find Sun Zhiru but he ignored us and told us to trust Lord Shen Mu. How can we believe him? Now those senior managers want to make trouble for us."
"They are not just targeting us, they want to catch all of us. We offended them before, and now they are retaliating against us."
These middle-level managers came to Zhang Bo one by one and kept complaining, because they were really being wrongly accused. Especially when they thought about the inquiries they had received during the day, their faces all looked very uncomfortable.
That's not an inquiry, it's an interrogation.
Those senior managers just disliked these middle-level managers and wanted to torture them into confessing. If possible, they believed that the senior managers would show no mercy to their subordinates and would force them to admit that they were the remnants of the diesel company, and then put the blame on them and make them accept the most brutal punishment in retaliation. They did not tell these senior managers when they handed over the list.
As a result, these middle-level managers are now really helpless and quite angry.
