Seeing that the new president really did not have the intention to do so, the Grand Secretary immediately stopped mentioning this matter. It seemed that the rumors about husband and wife playing around were fake! They were so harmful! He better not read them next time. Hence, he quickly found an excuse and was about to leave when Lu Ming’s voice sounded in the room again. “Don’t do it again, or I’ll get someone else to replace you.”
It was a reminder and a warning.
Yu Yan quickly nodded and echoed, “I understand. Don’t worry. It was my mistake this time.”
To be honest, there were not many people who were so loyal to their feelings these days. Well, he met people who did not have much willpower in the past. As long as their wives were not around, they would have more fun than anyone else! He thought that this move would make the new president have a good impression of him, but he did not expect it to have the opposite effect! If he repeated the same mistake next time, wouldn’t he be a fool?
However, he did not know if it was good or bad for them that this new president had bought Justice Island. He left the presidential palace with a lot on his mind.
…
The next day.
After Lu Ming had breakfast, the finance staff finally finished counting the amount. Just as he had expected, they did not miss a single cent according to the agreement! This time, Justice Island became one of his businesses. Then he quickly held a high-level meeting with the country. As soon as the news spread, those officials who were still sleeping rushed over in a panic.
When they saw Lu Ming’s smiling face, they were all surprised and stunned. Was their new boss a little too young? At first, they almost thought that they had come to the wrong place, or that the new president wanted to find a celebrity to perform or something. Until Yu Yan appeared, they had no choice but to accept the fact that this young man was the new president.
“I didn’t call everyone over for anything else today. I want to change and improve law and order.”
Oh my, is this the fire of a new official? He has only been on the island for a short time, but he’s already planning to overturn everything. His ambition is really a little big! For a moment, those officials did not know what to say. They looked at each other. Perhaps silence was the bridge tonight.
Lu Ming did not care what they thought. He said, “First of all, Justice Island will no longer accept criminals who have committed heinous crimes. For example, those whose hands are stained with blood can’t be let in no matter how much money is offered. After all, my goal is to reduce the chaos on Justice Island. Therefore, the police have to undergo strict training before they can officially be on duty. As for those who are already in the force, they can be scheduled for retraining.
“Not everyone can bear the title of a police officer. Only through training can one become a police officer again! If anyone wants to quit midway or has a bad attitude, just kick them out. If anyone causes trouble, they will not be accepted for life! Does anyone have any objections?”
It was reasonable and reasonable, and they did not find any loopholes for the time being. The others shook their heads and agreed with the new president. One of the middle-aged men asked, “Then who will be the instructor? We don’t have any special personnel here. We won’t be at ease if we borrow from other countries.”
“I’ll pay. I run a bodyguard company in China. The people inside are all veterans of the special forces, so you can rest assured about this.”
Seeing that they had no objections, Lu Ming continued, “Then I’ll continue. From today onwards, as long as you’re an official, you’re not allowed to run a company or interfere in the livelihood and economy. Moreover, I’ll take back some of the officials’ rights and redistribute them.”
In an instant, gasps sounded in the conference room. Some people even frowned so hard that they could kill a fly! Many people were dissatisfied and resisted. Before they could say anything, Lu Ming spoke first. “No matter what you say, I won’t give in. At the end of the day, I’m not discussing this with you.
“You can think of it as mandatory! If you have any other thoughts, you can tell me.”
Since they had already said so much, what else could they do? Wasn’t this forcing them to accept it? After that, Lu Ming raised many ideas. From their initial anger to their numbness later on, who dared to say no? The new president had completely grasped the rhythm! They had no chance to speak at all!
If they couldn’t win, they could only join him.
With the thought that they could not be the only ones to suffer, they decided to immediately implement these new rules when they returned!
After the meeting ended, Yu Yan felt dizzy. After today’s incident, he realized that his new boss was really powerful. Not only was every law changing for the better, but his mind was also quite clear. It was terrifying!
Just as he was immersed in his surprise, Lu Ming pulled him back to reality. “Arrange Fred Dodge’s information for me. Bring me everything he did during his reign.”
Yu Yan’s eyes widened. Is he going to settle the score after this? Without any time to think, he ran out quickly. After a while, he placed a thick stack of documents in front of Lu Ming. Neither of them spoke first. The latter just quietly flipped through the documents.
It was true that Fred hadn’t done anything wicked since he’d become president. Instead, he’d done a lot of practical things, such as building orphanages and opening up maritime trade. He was a capable man, and he had a good relationship with the powerful people on the island. It was just that his family’s descendants weren’t very helpful.
Initially, he thought that if he was a good-for-nothing, he would just fire him. Now, he did not have to spend so much effort to stabilize their relationship. This was because if he wanted to support a newcomer, he would have to personally nurture him. In other words, it was hard to say if he could return to China in the next few years. Since he had a ready-made tool, he would treat it as doing him a favor!
He closed the documents, and Yu Yan’s heart skipped a beat. Fred’s future depended on the words of the new president!
“Let Fred teach the juniors well.”
Yu Yan almost couldn’t maintain his expression. Does that mean that Fred could continue to be in this position? He suppressed his excitement and said, “Alright, I’ll go now.”
…
After returning to his manor, Guo Jiangjia threw everything on the table to the floor. Then he kicked the blond foreigner who was in charge of reporting the news, in frustration.
He said in disbelief, “Lucas! You can donate the eyes you don’t need! You’re telling me that person is the boss of a small company? When did the boss of a small company become richer than me?!”
He was furious. Isn’t this news too different from the truth?
What is Lu Ming’s true identity? Where did he get so much money? Although the Guo family was not short of money, they did not have enough money to fork out so much money in one go. Otherwise, the Guo family would have been the owner of Justice Island!
