Capítulo 1438: Chapter 785: The Cockroach Calamity
Unlike usual etings, the eting at which Qing Chen was elected Chairman of the Board occurred after a fierce storm of bloodshed.
All factions under the Qing Clan House Master’s command suppressed all opposition with the most brutal and violent thods. At this mont, it was not Qing Chen’s turn to play the good guy—his task was to unite all factions with an even tougher approach.
Only this way could the Qing Clan be equipped to face the storms ahead.
Now, the Qing Clan could only have one voice, the voice from Ginkgo Mountain.
Without waiting for anyone to preside over the eting, Qing Chen calmly said, “From today on, I am the new Chairman of the Board of the Qing Clan. Raise your hand if opposed.”
The eting room was silent as a grave. They all felt that when Qing Chen sat in that chair, he seed even more oppressive than the Shadow.
No one raised their hand. No one dared to. Just this morning, Qing Yun had been sent to the Secret Prison; everyone knew what the consequence of opposition was.
At this mont, Qing Ji announced, “Passed unanimously. Congratulations to Mr. Qing Chen for being elected Chairman of the Board.”
Amid thunderous applause, Qing Chen had already begun the reckoning.
He understood that the mories of nine people sent by Old Master Qing to him contained not only life experiences. Those nine held high positions, knowing too many secrets.
Last night, Old Master Qing did not kill everyone but left a batch specifically for him to use as leverage today.
It’s undeniable that the old master was indeed thoughtful.
Qing Chen didn’t look at any notes; he simply sat in the chair, orderly saying, “Qing’s Hengtian Energy Company has prepared two sets of books. Over the years, you’ve colluded with Qing Lian, responsible for auditing, to embezzle 120 billion of the clan’s assets, and raised 600 private troops for yourselves. Take them away, and within three days, return the money to . Qing Da will take over Hengtian Energy Company and let him report to Ginkgo Mountain within two days.”
“It’s unjust!” The Chairman of Hengtian Energy stood up, “This is slander with no evidence!”
Qing Chen said, “All evidence is in the walls of Building 11 in Qing Lian’s estate at the Fa Garden. Qing Kun, arrange to search.”
“Understood,” Qing Kun nodded and quietly ssaged his son, “So fierce. Your sir won’t get rid of your dad, right? Your dad’s rear isn’t clean either.”
Qing Yi: “…Don’t worry, my relation with sir is good.”
Qing Kun: “Thank you, son.”
Qing Yi: “…”
At this mont, Qing Chen continued, “Qing Chi, the Second Army Group has a total of 2312 false soldiers on the payroll. Tell Qing Yu, once he takes over, he must thoroughly investigate. Better to investigate oneself than to have do it. The Army Group is the cornerstone of the Qing Clan; there can be no mistakes in the military.”
Qing Chi nodded, “I understand, and have already arrested the corrupt officers who faked payrolls, returning them to City No. 5.”
Qing Chen continued, “Currently, Qing Group has 18 projects fabricated to swindle subsidies, accumulating to 210 billion. Among them are Longtian Enterprise, Rizheng Hydroelectric, Chunlei Hydroelectric… all these projects since initiation have largely falsified progress. Qing Kun, you will also handle these people.”
Qing Kun breathed a sigh of relief. Three of those 18 projects were his… Qing Chen letting him handle it ant giving him a chance to compensate for the deficit. As long as he surrendered the money, it should be fine.
The next mont, Qing Chen said, “The Qing Clan will establish the Business Division Group, incorporating all comrcial projects except military industry under its umbrella. I nominate Qing Kun as the group’s Vice President in charge. Raise your hand if opposed.”
No one opposed.
Qing Kun was overjoyed. Qing Chen had essentially made him the chief steward of the Qing Clan—a teoric rise!
Although he had to give up military industry projects, the advantages outweighed the disadvantages.
Qing Chen continued, “The Qing Clan will establish the Military Industry Division Group, bringing all military enterprises under unified managent. I nominate Qing Qu as the group’s Vice President in charge. Raise your hand if opposed.”
No one opposed.
Qing Chen sat in his place, issuing 512 reform and oversight requirents from morning until afternoon without pause. During this ti, he did not look at any docunts, only allowing four bathroom breaks for everyone.
Ke Rouli, a top student, felt shocked as she listened to Qing Chen speak.
Previously, she focused more on Qing Chen’s identity, strength, and the factions under his command.
In dia reports, there hadn’t been coverage of Qing Chen’s intelligence, nor events to reflect it. The most ntioned were his tactical ingenuity, inflicting severe damage to Jindai and Deer Island. But such feats, while notable, weren’t enough to illustrate Qing Chen’s intelligence.
Yet at this mont, she felt as if she were subdued by a pure force.
Her once-prided intellect paled before Qing Chen.
These 512 requirents would constitute the eting’s minutes, to be followed up by Ke Rouli to ensure the reforms were completed.
It’s a massive workload, but instead of feeling pressured, Ke Rouli felt exceedingly thrilled…
The eting concluded with every Qing Clan faction leader soaked in sweat, fearing their own faults might be ntioned by Qing Chen.
Fortunately, apart from an initial hard stance, Qing Chen’s statents avoided those seated mbers of the Board—hinting at a general amnesty.
However, at the end of the eting, Qing Chen suddenly said, “I have 311 more oversight issues reserved, which I won’t address here. How well you’ve perford, you all know in your hearts. I’m giving you ti to find your own issues, then submit your reform asures and plans in writing. This is your last chance—cherish it.”
