Chapter 212: Letting Loose The Floodgates Of Criticism!

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Jiang Xing heard Jiang Jingchen say that things were up for discussion, but he figured it was just another trap for him.

However, he would not give him the things on the list.

“It’s difficult to evaluate land that has been developed. If you’re willing, you can manage them for the time being. There are also a few investment projects on the list that are very complicated. It’s impossible to just take out the investments. You can find out for yourself if you don’t believe me.”

Jiang Jingchen nodded. He was telling the truth.

“I’ve been recuperating all these years and haven’t done much except being lazy. 1 don’t think I can manage any real estate or foundations. I’ll definitely do a bad job.”

“Give me a job at Jiang Corporation that doesn’t leave me too free or make me too busy. If I’m too free, I’ll find trouble with you. If I’m too busy, 1 won’t have time to spend with my wife.” Jiang Jingchen looked at his father, his tone sincere.

“Jiang Xing, I’m not young anymore, and I want to settle down. When my wife graduates from university, we’ll have a few kids. As long as I don’t starve to death, I won’t pester you.”

Jiang Xing looked at his son doubtfully. Jiang Jingchen was 29 years old. He was indeed not young anymore.

It was also understandable that he planned to have children after getting married.

But, if he wanted a job at Jiang Corporation… Jiang Xing furrowed his brows slightly.

“There are also many jobs that are not too busy in real estate management.”

Jiang Jingchen’s lips curled up. He knew very well that Jiang Xing was trying to steer him away from Jiang Corporation.

This was because Jiang Corporation was at the core of all their assets.

It was also probably Jiang Xing’s bottom line.

Jiang Xing had indeed put in a lot of hard work and managed Jiang Corporation well all these years. Even Jiang Minglang wasn’t part of the core management team, so Jiang Jingchen understood his father’s concerns.

Jiang Minglang wasn’t capable and lacked management experience.

“Working at Jiang Corporation gives me style, status, and face. After all, I’m the first young master of the Jiang family. You want me to manage some real estate and let my wife look down on me? I will do no such thing.”

“Jiang Xing, we’re both men. This bit of vanity isn’t uncommon. Just a simple question: will you give me a job here or not? If you don’t, I’ll continue to fight with you.”

“We are family after all. It’s ugly if we keep fighting.”

Jiang Xing looked suspiciously at his son when he heard his sudden change in attitude and consideration for himself.

Jiang Jingchen looked at him calmly and continued, “My legs haven’t recovered for long. I still need to continue my recuperation. However, my wife despises me for sitting at home all day. She said that if I don’t work after my legs recover, I’m just waiting for death.”

“As a man, 1 can’t give her much except a sense of security.”

He deliberately mentioned Tang Beibei and softened his tone so that Jiang Xing would relent and let him join Jiang Corporation.

Jiang Xing frowned. “The things that I’ve given you are enough to support you. If you’re not satisfied with that woman, then divorce her. I’ll find you another wife!”

Jiang Jingchen frowned. “Jiang Xing, would you divorce Song Yan just because she criticized you?”

Jiang Xing thought that it was better to keep Jiang Jingchen under his nose even though it was infuriating. Having him make trouble outside was way worse.

He could feel that although his son had just recovered from a serious illness, he was a real threat.

“I’ll get the lawyer to prepare the paperwork for what 1 can give you on the list. As for the rest, we’ll talk about it when you come to work.”

“Okay. 1 am not picky about the pay, but the position mustn’t be too high. If it’s too high, I’ll have to do things. I don’t know management and I don’t want to take responsibility if something goes wrong.”

Jiang Xing wanted to kick him out. Wasn’t he all tough and unreasonable just now?

Song Zhou watched Jiang Jingchen silently. He was aggressive at the beginning of the fight and soft in the end. His acting skills were in point and he nailed the pace of the negotiation.

It could only be said that while Jing Xing gave birth to Jiang Jingchen, he had raised him badly. So badly that his son would want to destroy him!

When Jiang Jingchen left the office, he instructed Song Zhou, “Go get me some water to drink. 1 want to rinse my mouth. I feel nauseous.”

Song Zhou grumbled in his heart that his young master only felt nauseous now? When he was watching the play just now and heard his young master say that Tang Beibei despised him for being lazy and not having enough money, he already wanted to throw up.

“Eldest Brother, didn’t you have something important to tell me? What are you doing here?”

They met Jiang Minglang at the stairs. Jiang Jingchen stopped and said, “Give me some water and 1’11 tell you!”

Jiang Minglang frowned as he stared at Jiang Jingchen. “If you want water, come downstairs to my office.”

“Alright.”

Song Zhou followed, curious about what Jiang Jingchen would say to Jiang Minglang.

After they sat down in his office, Jiang Minglang asked his assistant to bring two bottles of mineral water. Jiang Jingchen opened one and took a sip. It tasted quite good. He decided to buy this brand of mineral water for his wife.

“What is it? Tell me.”

In public, Jiang Minglang would address Jiang Jingchen as his eldest brother out of courtesy.

But here inside Jiang Minglang’s office, the two brothers knew each other’s position well and didn’t need to pretend.

“I’ll be coming to work here soon. My position might be about the same as yours.”

Jiang Minglang was stunned and looked at him in surprise. “You want to work at Jiang Corporation? What do you know? Logistics?”

“That’s fine too. It’s just a title. Why are you so nervous? Or do you think that you’re not as capable as me and that you’ll have no place once I’m here?”

“Ha, what a joke! Do 1 look threatened by you? Jiang Jingchen, don’t forget that you’ve been recuperating all these years. You don’t know anything while 1 graduated from a famous university!”

Song Zhou sneered in his heart. When Jiang Minglang was studying and playing basketball, his young master was already in the business world, making business moguls kowtow to him.

Jiang Minglang was just a small manager at Jiang Corporation. Even if he graduated from a famous university, it was just a piece of paper.

“Wow. Good for you.”

Jiang Jingchen’s lips twitched. “But I’m the first young master of the Jiang family. I didn’t even attend university, but I can still work here.”

Jiang Minglang was speechless.

Song Zhou held back his laughter. His young master was on a roll today!

He was really letting loose the floodgates of criticisms!

Jiang Jingchen smiled politely. “I still have something to do, so 1 am going to take my leave. Jiang Minglang, see you tomorrow!”

“… Jiang Jingchen, you’re nothing but a disgusting fly!”

Jiang Minglang didn’t hide the disgust in his eyes.

Jiang Jingchen nodded. “You and your mother are the same! So now you can understand how hard it was for me to watch you guys act all these years.”

Without waiting for Jiang Minglang to speak, Jiang Jingchen walked out of the office. The smile on his face disappeared, and his face turned cold.

When they arrived downstairs, Jiang Jingchen got into the car and Song Zhou started the car.

Song Zhou asked, “Young Master, where are we going now?”

“I want to see my wife.”

“… Young Madam is in school. It’s better if you don’t disturb her and find another place to wile away your time.”

Jiang Jingchen clicked his tongue. It was true that his presence would distract Tang Beibei. “Where do you think we should go?”

“Go home and look at documents!”

Song Zhou found it really tough to have to persuade his boss to work every day. Sigh.

Jiang Jingchen was disgusted. “Look at what documents? I’m not doing that. Contact Yang Hao. 1’11 talk about life with him.”

Song Zhou’s heart went out to Yang Hao.

When his young master went to work at Jiang Corporation, Yang Hao had to stay close to Jiang Minglang while working for Jiang Jingchen. Yang Hao’s life would be so difficult playing double agent!

After thinking for a few seconds, Jiang Jingchen said, “After meeting Yang Hao, I’ll go buy my wife a gift. 1’11 start work tomorrow and I’d like to give her a reward tonight.”
