Watching Chang Yanchang and others being dragged out like dead pigs, all the employees were shocked, but quickly went back to their work.

They were more diligent than usual, fearing that if Liu Zixuan was unhappy, he’d smash their rice bowls.

Moments later, the meeting display screens in each department of the group turned on, and the images of Liu Zixuan and the senior management appeared in front of the employees.

These meeting screens were specially installed by Jiang Yiyi back then, considering the group’s large workforce; a collective meeting wouldn’t fit into any room, and this method saved a lot of hassle.

"Everyone, please stop what you’re doing, Mr. Liu has a few things to discuss with you," Manager Wang said, standing in front of the display screen.

The employees looked over in confusion, feeling anxious, thinking that Liu Zixuan might really fire them all?

They all understood that such a large group incurred daily expenses of hundreds of thousands to millions, and wouldn’t value these employees; the company had the money to replace them easily.

Sitting in his chair, Liu Zixuan laughed, "I know you all have a lot of doubts in your hearts now. Am I, as the CEO, inhumane, or cold and ruthless? First thing upon returning, I fired many people, and are you all worried that I might fire you too?"

His words undoubtedly voiced everyone’s inner thoughts, but he dared to say them, and no one else dared to mention them.

Liu Zixuan shook his head with a smile, "The law is nothing but humane; since founding Xiumei Group, I’ve hardly managed it myself, first because someone was managing it for me, and second, I trusted everyone in the group."

"The reason I was so angry today is that some people took my trust as their capital for recklessness, and I am a person who rewards and punishes distinctly."

"If wrong, I will punish, and you’ve seen how I punish those who are wrong; I will knock them down completely, but if right, I will also reward. Now, those who remain are good employees of Xiumei Group. Your hard work and diligence, I haven’t seen, but the fact that the group has reached this point, it cannot be without your contributions."

At this point, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed this Mr. Liu wouldn’t be firing anyone else.

Liu Zixuan smiled slightly and continued, "The holidays are approaching. We’ve just punished many; now, let’s talk about rewards. Starting with vacations. The original plan was to start in three days, but now I’m changing it. Non-local employees will start their holiday tomorrow, returning after the seventh of the new year; local employees will wrap up work tomorrow and officially start holidays the day after, returning after the eighth of the new year."

"A national model boss!"

"Our Mr. Liu is so cool, I was wondering how to ask my supervisor for a leave to go back early!"

"Turns out Mr. Liu isn’t that cold after all; he looks amazing now!"

Immediately, the whole group was in an uproar.

For ordinary workers, there are three things that make them happy in the company.

First, promotions and raises.

Second, bonus doubled.

Third, paid vacation.

Upon hearing about the early holiday, everyone cheered directly.

Listening to the deafening cheers outside, Liu Zixuan smiled broadly, "Everyone, please calm down, and let me finish."

Once the noise outside gradually quieted down, Liu Zixuan continued, "Xiumei Group has been established for less than a year but has grown from a modest little shop to the large group it is now, thanks to everyone’s help and effort."

"Manager Qian has been dismissed, and I am temporarily appointing Manager Wang as the head of the Finance Department."

Manager Wang was stunned upon hearing this and took a while to respond.

Liu Zixuan laughed, "What? No confidence in yourself?" 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"No, no, no, I just didn’t expect you’d appoint me as the head," Manager Wang quickly shook his head.

"The Finance Department holds the most resources, Manager Wang, you shouldn’t follow Manager Qian’s path," Liu Zixuan teasingly remarked.

Manager Wang quickly said seriously, "Rest assured, I will definitely make the Finance Department the best department in the group!"

Liu Zixuan waved his hand and looked at the screen, "As you can see, this is the head of our Finance Department. After we finish this meeting, each department will go to her office to receive their salaries in normal order. In addition to regular wages and bonuses, every ordinary employee will receive an additional ten thousand yuan as holiday pay."

"Long live Mr. Liu!"

"Ten thousand yuan, that’s enough for a hefty New Year!"

"I’ve been in several companies and never met such a generous boss!"

With the announcement of yet another reward following the early holiday, the group was once again thrown into a frenzy.

Ten thousand yuan doesn’t mean much to Liu Zixuan, but for these ordinary employees, it’s almost two months’ worth of salary. They had previously been worried about the company going bankrupt and losing their jobs, but unexpectedly, Liu Zixuan’s strong return brought only good news.

Listening to the cheers outside, Liu Zixuan cheerfully closed the display screen and sat back at the table, looking at the senior management.

"The rewards for the staff are over, let’s talk about your rewards," Liu Zixuan said with a smile.

"We have rewards too?" a surprised supervisor asked, initially thinking that not being penalized by Liu Zixuan was already a blessing. How come there are rewards too?

Liu Zixuan shrugged, "The past is the past; as long as you follow and work hard with me, Liu Zixuan, apart from wives and kids, I can give you anything else."

"Long live Mr. Liu!" Manager Wang led the cheer, and others joined in.

Liu Zixuan gestured for silence and then said, "All right, soon after the New Year, in another couple of months, it will be Xiumei’s first anniversary. More rewards will be given out during the anniversary. During the holidays, each of you senior managers can receive twenty thousand yuan in holiday allowances, and at the anniversary celebration, I’ll have a few houses and cars prepared as prizes for you."

"Mr. Liu, you’re so good to us, we don’t know what to say!"

"Indeed, rest assured, we’ll lead our departments well."

Everyone pledged their loyalty, showing great support for Liu Zixuan.

But Liu Zixuan didn’t feel like he was losing anything. He needed a complete cash flow, and Xiumei Group was undoubtedly the best choice. Only by appeasing these people could he ensure a continuous flow of benefits.

"All right, don’t work for the rest of the time, tidy up, go to the Finance Department to collect your money, and then each department head should take their employees out for a meal and have fun. The expenses will be covered by the company."
