In the past two to three years, the decline was only 0.01 percent. The decline was not so great, and naturally, the head office did not take it to heart. However, they still berated the regional president.

However, this recent year, the total sales in China had shown a giant plummet.

Such a terrible sales result made the president of the head office, Macon, very angry.

Bruce lowered his head and reported, “Boss, there is now a company in China that specializes in selling agricultural products and agricultural by-products. All the rich and powerful people in China have abandoned us to buy from them.”

When he was in China, he secretly sent people to buy from that company. After he ate them, he felt that the food was too delicious.

He was from country F, and his family was also from Country F.

When he was sent to China, he would usually go to a big hotel to eat. But after trying Green Fresh’s food, he would cook at home. He couldn’t let anyone find out that he had been using the ingredients from Green Fresh, or he’d be branded a traitor.

When he had business meetings with clients at big hotels, they would order Royal Forest’s food to please him. However, after eating Green Fresh’s food, Bruce had to admit that the taste was too different. His feeling was complicated.

However, he didn’t realize how tough the situation was until he reported the sales to the head office at the end of the month. He instantly had a headache.

He really wanted to tear up these reports, but unfortunately, he couldn’t. He could only brace himself and report to the head office.

After listening to Bruce’s report, Macon’s sharp gaze was fixed on Bruce’s face. There was disdain and contempt in his eyes as if he didn’t believe Bruce.

Macon said coldly, “So you’re trying to tell me that a company in China has snatched away the customers of Royal Forest, the number one international brand? In just half a year’s time, we’ve lost more than half of our customers. We’ve lost tens of billions. Am I right, Bruce?”

Bruce knew that Macon didn’t believe him, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, “Yes, boss.” Then, he explained, “Boss, the company in China…”

“Enough, Bruce!” Macon shouted sternly. He did not listen to his explanation at all and directly said, “Bruce, don’t make excuses for your own incompetence. Do you know that ever since you became our regional president in China, our total sales volume has been declining every year? Now, the decline in the past six months is even more outrageous. So…” Macon paused, “Since you don’t have the ability, then you can step down. I’ll have someone else replace you. I don’t believe that a Chinese company will be able to provide better products than ours.”

In short, Mason did not believe at all that a place like China that was so backward could produce stock that could rival Royal Forest. Therefore, he believed that Bruce was just making an excuse for his incompetence.

Bruce could only smile bitterly. After all, if he didn’t taste the food from Green Fresh himself, he wouldn’t believe it either.

Macon then said, “Bruce, I have decided to remove you from your position as the President of the branch company in China. You will take a leave of absence for the time being. After I have a meeting with the higher-ups, we will move you to a suitable position.” In other words, he would be given permanent suspension until the company found a position for him. This was no different from being fired.

Other than this sounded better than being fired. However, Macon was the highest person in charge of the group and also had the highest authority. Who would dare to refute his decision?

Bruce said calmly, “Macon, since you don’t believe me, I’ll write my resignation now.”

When Macon heard that, his expression turned ugly as he asked, “What do you mean by that?”

Bruce laughed coldly and said, “What do you think? I quit.”

Macon’s face instantly turned black. He looked slightly angry as he said, “You…”

Bruce did not argue with him and directly said, “I’ll go write my resignation letter now. I hope Mr. Macon can quickly approve it. Oh, right.” Just as Bruce was about to turn around, Bruce suddenly said, “Mr. Macon, you better arrange for someone to head the office in China soon, or else you might even lose that 20 percent of sales!” That 20 percent sale was won over by Bruce after he made some friends in China. Now that he was leaving Royal Forest, his business contact would retract the cooperation too.

Bruce planned to apply for a job at Green Fresh Group. If he succeeded, he also wanted to bring his wife and daughter to China.

Macon was furious seeing Bruce react like this.

Then, he quickly calmed down. He called the personnel department and issued a letter of dismissal.

‘This Bruce doesn’t have the ability but likes to talk back. Letting him resign is too easy. I’ll have him banned in the industry!’ Macon thought viciously.

Soon, Macon would live to regret that decision.

In the CEO’s Office of the Green Fresh Group, Zeng Yaozu reported to Xiao Lingyu, “Phoenix Farm, Hundred Flower Valley Farm… Tourism at these farms has fully matured. Last month, the number of tourists to Phoenix farm was 20,000 per day, and the Hundred Flower Valley farm was 30,000 per day… This month, the number of tourists to Phoenix farm reached 30,000 per day and the Hundred Flower Valley 45,000 per day. The growth rate is…”

However, the number of tourists going to these farms was not enough compared to the 200,000 tourists coming to Taoyuan village every day.

However, these farms were new, and there were still many areas that were not fully developed yet. There were all sorts of entertainment projects that were not in place yet. These tourists had gone there purely because of the reputation of Green Fresh Group. So the fact that they could get 30,000 to 40,000 visitors per day was already very good.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Mm, they’re all doing pretty well.”

Zeng Yaozu continued reporting, “The 318 supermarkets in the country have basically stabilized their supply and sales.”

The sales were stable, but every supermarket was unable to meet the demand. However, the company would not raise the supply. That was their principle.

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Okay.” Then, she thought for a while and said, “Pass on the message. At the end of the month, all the employees will get a reward for their hard work.”

Zeng Yaozu nodded and said, “Okay!”

Green fresh treated its employees very well. There were bonuses often. Even the cleaners would get the rewards.

After the two of them discussed the official matters, they brought up some private matters.

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Yaozu, it’s been hard on you. You’ve been busy for the past half a year.”

Zeng Yaozu raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile, “So, president, are you planning to let me take a vacation?”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Yes, I am.”

Zeng Yaozu thought that he had heard wrong. He dug his ears and asked in disbelief, “President, are you sure? Are you merciful enough to let me take a vacation?”

Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Am I that much of a tyrant? I’m going to give you a two-month vacation. What do you think, Manager Zhang?” Xiao Lingyu leaned back in her chair, crossed her arms across her chest, and asked in amusement, “Does Manager Zhang not like it? If that’s the case, then I…” I’ll take it back.

“Of course I like it!” Zeng Yaozu was afraid that Xiao Lingyu would revoke his vacation, so he quickly said, “But, why are you suddenly so kind as to give me a vacation?”

Xiao Lingyu had kept him working all day and all night. Zeng Yaozu couldn’t have any complaints, or someone at home would tattle on him.

Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “It’s nothing. I heard that Xinxin is pregnant, and she is having it hard. Although your father-in-law and mother-in-law are taking care of her, I know that during this period of time, a woman’s greatest wish is to have her husband by her side so that she can feel more at ease.”

After Zeng Yaozu heard this, he was stunned for a moment before he said, “Thank you!”

Actually, ever since he found out that his wife was pregnant, Zeng Yaozu was so happy that he wanted to fly. However, he was so busy with work that he couldn’t be with his pregnant wife.

Therefore, he could only contact her by phone every day. Zeng Yaozu would always ask about her condition, and Xiao Xinxin would tell him every day that she was fine and he did not need to worry.

Later, when he went home, he found out that Xiao Xinxin suffered a lot during the pregnancy. She couldn’t eat or sleep well and even vomited every day. It really made his heart ache, but he couldn’t help much. It made him very anxious.

He thought about taking a vacation to accompany her, but… This was opposed by his family.

There were so many people at home to take care of Xiao Xinxin. Moreover, this was just a pregnancy reaction. Even if he was by her side, he couldn’t help much.

Moreover, the company needed him since it was expanding fast. Therefore, he didn’t ask for leave or share his concerns with Xiao Lingyu.

He didn’t expect Xiao Lingyu would give him a leave voluntarily. He was really happy.

Xiao Lingyu stood up and patted his shoulder, saying with a smile, “Go home and accompany Xinxin!”

Zeng Yaozu nodded with a smile and said, “Yes, I will.”
