Chapter 246: Deputy Director Kenneth
"Enough nonsense, you can leave now," Noah replied impatiently.
Noah grabbed George with his right hand and threw him outside the villa.
Just then, four security guards were walking in line, patrolling the road.
Upon seeing Noah, they immediately stood at attention and saluted in unison.
"Good day, sir!"
"Kick these two trespassers out."
Noah pointed at George and Jasmine.
"Trespassers?"
The four security guards looked at George and Jasmine, their faces instantly turning cold.
"Don't worry, sir, I will kick them out now!"
As they spoke, the four security guards approached and carried the two of them towards the villa gate.
"Let go of me!"
"Noah, how dare you be impolite to both of us!"
...
No matter how much the two struggled, it was futile.
After getting rid of them, Noah returned to the villa and went to Daniel's room.
"Stop pretending, I've kicked them out," Noah glanced at Daniel lying motionless on the bed.
Daniel suddenly sat up, staring at Noah.
"Noah, what do you mean by what you just said? Who do you think you are, calling yourself the head of the family?" Daniel questioned.
"What I said is what I meant, I don't feel like explaining it again," Noah replied indifferently.
"Also, the Golden Ox and the Greek god statue belong to me. Since you already placed them in the living room, they should stay there and you're not allowed to bring them back to your room."
"Noah, now you think you can boss me around?" Daniel retorted without backing down.
"If you don't let me take them back, then I won't. What can you do about it?"
Noah couldn't be bothered to argue with Daniel.
"I'll say it again, they are mine and I'll decide where they go. If you dare to bring them back and I find out, you'll be kicked out of this villa just like George."
After finishing his words, Noah turned around, crossed his arms, and left the room.
"Damn it..."
Daniel's face turned red and then pale with anger.
He could tell that Noah wasn't joking, and if he brought the Golden Ox and the Greek god statue back to his room, he would surely be kicked out.
But Daniel couldn't swallow his pride.
"Damn it! This useless brat really doesn't put me, his old father-in-law, in his eyes!"
The more he thought about it, the angrier Daniel became.
Then, he became so worked up that he fainted.
But this time, it was real unconsciousness, not pretending.
"Dad! Dad!" Lisa shouted, immediately calling for an ambulance.
...
Noah finished washing up and went back to his room to sleep.
The next morning, Timothy sent over a document that he had drafted overnight. It was a plan for Kroger's development over the next three months.
"Received," Noah replied. "I will make arrangements for the next steps and have you continue leading at Kroger. Additionally, I suggest changing the management team at Kroger."
"Alright, Noah. The first thing I'll do after taking over is to replace the supermarket management team. Also, we may need hundreds of millions for the supermarket's recovery funds."
Timothy responded promptly.
"Let me know how much money you need. I will hand it over to the company's finance department. Just make sure to get the funds from them. Remember what I said before."
"Don't worry, I won't embezzle company funds. I definitely don't want to go to jail!"
"Okay."
After replying to the message, Noah got up and had breakfast before driving to Facebook Live.
At this point, the Shark Company had hired more employees compared to before, including supervisors and technical staff.
The entire company had an atmosphere of prosperity and positivity.
This was because the new boss had set a goal that had been conveyed throughout the company.
To go public on NASDAQ within a year!
This goal was distant and difficult, and the majority of people believed it was impossible to achieve.
However, Facebook Live had been aggressively recruiting popular streamers, and the audience traffic had increased four to five times compared to before. They had already made a name for themselves in the live streaming industry.
This gave them a glimpse of hope.
Maybe, within a year, Facebook Live could really go public on NASDAQ!
As a result, the employees were full of energy every day.
"Noah!"
Upon receiving Noah's message, the finance manager immediately came over.
"The deputy director I told you about is in the office."
Noah nodded and entered the office.
Seated in the chair was a middle-aged man wearing thick glasses, with slightly thinning hair. He was around fifty years old.
"This is Deputy Director Chen, Kenneth!" the finance manager introduced.
"Noah!"
Kenneth immediately stood up, feeling somewhat uneasy.
He had received the message yesterday that the new boss wanted to transfer him to another department, but he didn't know which one. Therefore, he was a bit anxious, afraid that Noah would put him on the edge of the company.
"You are the deputy finance director. What level is your accounting certificate?" Noah asked as he sat down.
"I am a senior accountant and have around ten years of work experience in auditing and computerization," Kenneth replied truthfully.
My editor nodded and said, "I've transferred you to a department in a supermarket in Oceanbridge City. They have over a hundred chain stores. Your job responsibilities will include managing the supermarket's finances and supervising the department leaders. Similar to Facebook Live, this supermarket aims to become a publicly traded company within a year."
"Another publicly traded company!"
Kenneth and the financial supervisor were both surprised. They didn't expect Noah to have such ambitious goals, wanting to create two publicly traded companies within a year. The journey ahead would undoubtedly be difficult and full of obstacles.
"Do you feel confident in taking on this job?" Noah asked.
"Yes!" Kenneth said immediately, his expression serious.
Transferred to manage the supermarket's finances, his position would certainly not be low, even without discussing his salary. If he had stayed at Facebook Live, he might have remained as the assistant financial supervisor for the next three to four years because all the higher positions were already occupied. But in the new company, he would surely be able to become the financial supervisor.
"It's good to have confidence," Noah said. "I have just one thing to say: work for me with peace of mind. Money is not a problem. Don't think about embezzlement or anything like that. What rightfully belongs to you will be yours. If you are in need of money, you can tell me, and I will fulfill your needs. Achieve results, and having a villa, luxury car, and shares won't be a problem. Do you understand?"
"I understand!" Kenneth immediately replied, his excitement causing him to tremble slightly.
He didn't doubt Noah's promises at all because he believed that Noah had the ability and resources to follow through. The precondition, of course, was that he performed well.
Even the financial supervisor, who was observing from the side, looked at Kenneth with envy. Kenneth had gained Noah's trust and support!
"Alright, I'll give you the address of the supermarket's headquarters. Go there and report. Once you arrive, look for a person named Timothy," Noah told Kenneth. He then patted Kenneth on the shoulder and encouraged him, saying, "If you have any problems, feel free to contact me. Any problem that money can solve is not a problem. This supermarket went bankrupt due to some previous issues. The burden on your shoulders is heavy, so work hard!"
Noah's words made Kenneth's eyes light up, and he trembled with excitement. He suddenly felt like a fresh college graduate, entering the workforce or a determined youngster striving to make a name for himself.
