Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1083: Chapter 1083: Reaping a Bountiful Harvest

A week later, the Affairs Department at the Zhenbei Group Greater China Region Headquarters concluded its investigation into Guo Yunxin, Sun Youhe, and twenty other corporate executives.

Four people were demoted, eight dismissed, including the two Guo Yunxin, and lawsuits were filed against eleven!

The news caused a shockwave at the headquarters!

Such a scale of punishment was unprecedented!

Those likely to be most pleased by the unrest were the successors, who finally saw their day to step into new positions.

The newly appointed provincial industrial managers and company general managers were all profoundly grateful to Bai Xiaosheng.

Even if they belonged to different factions, that’s what they all thought.

Without Bai Xiaosheng, even with support, they needed vacancies to rise to the occasion!

The headquarters also announced that the investigation had come to a successful conclusion.

Bai Xiaosheng, the Senior Affairs Officer, took the foremost credit, followed by Chen Yucheng and Lin Yu.

The achievements of the three were astonishing.

As the headquarters formally issued the notice of punishment to those individuals, Bai Xiaosheng heard the voice of Red Lotus in his mind, ringing out in a series like the chime of a bell.

”Identified four moderately negligent corporate management personnel, demoting them, and scoring one point each!”

”Identified eight seriously non-compliant management personnel, dismissing them, and scoring four points each!”

”Identified eight management personnel responsible for significant losses, filing suits, and scoring eight points each!”

”Identified three provincial industrial managers for lawsuits, scoring fifteen points each!”

”The total points earned this time are twenty-eight, currently equal to a Senior Affairs Officer level of twenty-eight points, needing seventy-two more to reach the presidency of the major region!”

Hearing the final scoring, Bai Xiaosheng was overjoyed.

Happiness came too unexpectedly!

He had completed more than a quarter of the progression in less than two months since his appointment as Senior Affairs Officer.

Such luck, what can you say!

Bai Xiaosheng was starting to get carried away himself.

Of course, his real gain was not just those twenty-eight points!

But rather the clues knocked out of the mouths of people like Guo Yunxin and Sun Youhe!

Behind those clues lay a large number of problematic individuals, the real treasure!

The last blade was even pointed directly at Shen Peishen!

Bai Xiaosheng felt a surge of heat in his heart.

He just didn’t know how many points a Shen Peishen would be worth!

In fact, even Shen Peishen himself probably hadn’t expected Guo Yunxin and the others to spill so much.

And after they gave up their leads to Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying, they knew that if they went back and told Shen Peishen, they might end up with nothing.

So, they actually unified their stories.

So much so that later, when Shen Peishen sent people to inquire, they all said they hadn’t revealed anything.

Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying only interrogated them for twenty to thirty minutes afterward, such a brief duration indeed shouldn’t have yielded much.

So Shen Peishen’s side didn’t pay much mind.

One reason that a cunning person like Shen Peishen could overlook these matters was another incident that occurred.

An incident that vexed Shen Peishen.

Elder Xia, Xiahou Qi, personally organized multiple meetings, severely criticizing the current problems, and praised Bai Xiaosheng and others extensively.

At the meeting, Elder Xia was full of vigor, showing none of his past sickly weakness, and even publicly thanked Bai Xiaosheng for the remedy that cured his chronic illness.

Xiahou Qi even joked with those present that he could still serve as their president for another five years.

Everyone was delighted, Shen Peishen was delighted, and even led the applause.

Bai Xiaosheng too was smiling and clapping, all the while watching Shen Peishen and nodding in acknowledgment.

Shen Peishen’s smile was affable.

Shen Peishen returned home afterward, closed the door, and proceeded to smash all his favorite white porcelain tea sets to pieces.

”Bai Xiaosheng, you bastard!”

Cheng Liu even heard his teacher swear at someone for the first time.

After the commendation meeting, Chen Yucheng went to have coffee with Bai Xiaosheng again.

In fact, Chen Yucheng was extremely satisfied with the outcome. Even though Lin Yu ended up taking a share at the end, the lion’s share was still in their hands, and his contribution was indeed more significant than that of Lin Yu’s.

That was enough!

”Indeed, following Senior Affairs Officer Xiaosheng leads to good fortune. I look forward to the next Candidate Great Affairs Officer competition, where you can help me surpass Lin Yu.”

Chen Yucheng even said it with a smile, half-jokingly.

”Of course,” Bai Xiaosheng smiled back.

Chen Yucheng’s assistance had indeed proved its strength.

Though he had received Elder Xia’s support to freely use personnel, it was only in terms of deployment.

Whether someone was suitable, whether they were willing to get involved, or whether they could be trusted, Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t guarantee.

But Chen Yucheng easily communicated with dozens of affairs assistants and affairs officers, who all did their utmost. That was truly formidable.

Despite the fact that it was Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying who later extracted more clues, it would have been extremely troublesome without the cooperation of those peripheral individuals.

”Here’s something for you!” Bai Xiaosheng took something out and pushed it across to Chen Yucheng.

Chen Yucheng smiled as he picked it up, glanced at it, and then his smile froze. After flipping through a couple of pages, the smile completely disappeared.

Eventually, he looked focused, spending a good ten minutes looking at it, his eyes bright and alert.

”This is the real achievement of this operation. If we investigate these clues, perhaps today’s gains will seem minor in comparison!” Bai Xiaosheng said earnestly with a smile.

Chen Yucheng looked up, gazing at Bai Xiaosheng.

He didn’t expect that Xiaosheng would have discovered so many clues and that he would share them without reservation.

Although they had already formed an alliance and were in the honeymoon phase of their cooperation, Senior Affairs Officer Xiaosheng really did trust implicitly.

”I’ll take care of these. I’ll have someone keep watch,” said Chen Yucheng, looking at Bai Xiaosheng with not a small amount of ambition, smiling, ”I want to use this start as my steppingstone to boost my chances for the position of Senior Affairs Officer.”

After speaking, Chen Yucheng added, ”And, I want to help you, Bai Xiaosheng, take another step forward!”

Regarding Elder Xia’s health, Bai Xiaosheng shared with Chen Yucheng that with his methods, he could only delay it for another year or so, depending on the actual situation.

”I’ve told Shen Peishen the same things that I told Elder Xia,” said Bai Xiaosheng.

”What did Elder Xia say?” Chen Yucheng was curious.

Bai Xiaosheng’s gaze flickered, ”Elder Xia said—he’s always known what Shen Peisheng is thinking!”

Chen Yucheng fell silent and nodded slightly.

After Chen Yucheng left, another guest arrived at Bai Xiaosheng’s.

In fact, she had visited three or four times in the week, which was not infrequent at all.

”Xiaosheng, I’ve got a list of people who are close to Shen Peishen. Do you want it? Though it’s only partial, it’s very useful to you!”

”Xiaosheng, did you get anything else in this investigation? I can trade intelligence for intelligence with you!”

”Xiaosheng, do you have any thoughts on what’s next? You can talk to me about it. If I’m happy, I might give you some clues!”

...

Yu Ying seemed to enjoy her frequent visits.

Weiwei didn’t have much of a good impression of her.

But Bai Xiaosheng was quite patient, always smiling.

He even genuinely provided some clues in exchange for some information.

After the exchange, Bai Xiaosheng remained curious and smiling, ”I’ve seen in movies; many spies are double agents. You, as an informant, surely aren’t dealing with both sides, are you?”

Yu Ying maintained her smile, giving Bai Xiaosheng a charming look, ”How could I be? I’m truly devoted!”

Bai Xiaosheng gazed into her eyes and laughed.

”Then you really do have professional ethics!”
