Disliked by everyone? She is clearly the most beloved one in the rich family!

Chapter 407 Mr. Wang’s True Purpose

When he opened his eyes again, night had already fallen.

"I actually slept for so long."

Meng Yingnian only felt that time passed very quickly in his dream. This sleep made him feel particularly peaceful. He looked up and saw a calming incense stick lit on the table not far away.

Yu Ning walked in immediately after hearing the noise, carrying the prepared food in his hands, and placed them on the table one by one.

"These incense sticks were ordered by the young mistress, and he also prepared the food and sent it over. He told me that I must watch you finish eating before letting you work."

Meng Yingnian looked at the porridge and side dishes in front of him, which could be said to be all light meals.

However, these foods are what he usually likes to eat. It can be said that Yu Zhi took into consideration both his physical condition and his taste preferences.

After finishing the meal, Meng Yingnian felt warm in his stomach and heart.

"Mr. Meng, starting this afternoon, our rapidly declining order volume has gradually stabilized. The remaining orders are from our long-standing customers who have been with us for decades. Generally speaking, they won't cancel their cooperation with us."

It seemed that the situation was under effective control, but Meng Yingnian knew in his heart that these things were just appetizers and President Wang would never give up.

"The old house asked you to go home tonight."

Meng Yingnian looked at his watch and saw the time. Now that the situation had stabilized, there was no point for him to stay in the company. He just told Yu Ning to keep a close eye on the current number of customers and to tell him immediately if any customer canceled their order.

After saying that, Meng Yingnian put on his clothes and rushed back to the old house.

The house was brightly lit and the servants were busy around. It looked like someone had arrived.

Meng Yingnian pushed the door open and went in. As expected, a large family was sitting in the living room, chatting with the old man.

The middle-aged man in the lead looked a bit like the old man, and it was obvious at first glance that they were a family member. However, Meng Qingnian had never seen this man before and was not sure of his identity.

Could it be that he is the old man's illegitimate child outside? It shouldn't be. Meng Yingnian shook his head. The old man was a decent person when he was young and would never do such petty thefts.

Moreover, their family rules are there. Anyone who dares to cheat or covet women will be kicked out of the house.

"Yingnian is back. This is your cousin Meng Chengguang. His father is my third brother. He split up a long time ago and went to the south to develop. He just came back recently."

The man's clothes were not very good, and he could only be considered middle class. If he was doing business, he probably wouldn't be a big deal.

Since the old man said that this is his third brother's child, why not support him?

"This must be Ying Nian, you're truly a promising young man. I've heard of your achievements for a long time. Now the Meng family's company is thriving under your leadership. It's true that young people are the birthplace of talent."

Meng Chengguang looked at Meng Yingnian and couldn't help but admire him.

When Meng Chengguang's father left the capital, he was still young and had no idea about the Meng family. In fact, Meng Chengguang's father could be considered a talented person. He ran away from home without taking anything with him, starting from scratch and building such a family business in a foreign place was not easy.

It was just that he worked too hard in his youth and damaged his health, so he passed away early. They came back this time so that the old man could return to his roots and not wander in a foreign land.

"You are too kind. It is just the protection of the family."

Meng Yingnian sat below the old man, and his every move showed the demeanor of a young master from a noble family.

Meng Chengguang looked at him, then turned back to look at his son who was sitting awkwardly, and sighed secretly in his heart.

As expected, the gap in education will affect a child's life. His son is obviously about the same age as Meng Yingnian, but he only attended an ordinary undergraduate school. Now he is not able to take on the responsibility of his own company, let alone be in charge of such a large company like Meng Yingnian.

"How did Yingnian become like this? To be honest, our child has graduated from college, but he knows nothing about our small company. I'm afraid he will squander all our wealth in the future."

Hearing his father say this, the young man did not get angry. Instead, he scratched his head and chuckled, his eyes full of the innocence of having never been exposed to society.

"It's good for children to live happily. If possible, I don't want Yingnian to bear all this at such a young age. Now he looks like an old man."

The old man sighed.

There is a huge gap between the two children, but who says it is bad to be more innocent and happy?

Meng Yingnian was simply too methodical, always striving to be the best at everything, shouldering all the responsibilities himself. But the old man had to admit that it was fortunate that a leader like Meng Yingnian had emerged in this generation. Otherwise, the Meng family, even though they were a well-established family, would have long been kicked out of high society.

"You have a point."

Meng Chengguang looked at his silly son and shook his head slightly.

"But if you really want him to gain some experience, why not follow Ying Nian to the company for a few days to train him? He doesn't have to be in an important position, just be Ying Nian's assistant. After a few days of getting used to the intensity of the company's work, he'll be able to adapt quickly."

Meng Yingnian felt helpless when listening to his grandfather's bad advice.

Being his assistant was arguably the second-busiest job in the company. It was a 24/7 job, with no time off. This kid had just graduated and hadn't experienced the harsh realities of society. To be dealt such a harsh blow all of a sudden, Meng Yingnian was worried he wouldn't be able to handle it.

"I think it's a good idea! He's lucky to have this opportunity to practice. I think the assistants around Yingnian have to be graduates from prestigious universities. He's not qualified at all."

This statement was indeed correct. After all, around Meng Yingnian, only those with similar educational backgrounds and quick minds could fully understand and grasp his meaning. Otherwise, wasting time on communication would result in huge financial losses.

"Dad, I'll cause more trouble for others if I go there."

The boy pulled Meng Chengguang's sleeve, but Meng Chengguang didn't care about his thoughts at all. He just looked at Meng Yingnian with an urgent look.

Since the old man has spoken, Meng Yingnian has no reason to refuse.

"In that case, I have an empty seat next to me, so let him come and train for a few days. If he feels he can't adapt, he can stop at any time."

When the child heard that he really had to go to work, his face fell, as if he had lost his parents. If he knew that there was no time to get off work, he would probably be even more distressed.

However, Meng Yingnian didn't plan to tell him this now. After he tried it himself for two days, he would naturally give up.

"By the way, Uncle, have you ever heard of Mr. Wang in the South? If I remember correctly, his company should be called Fidelity Industries."

Hearing this name, Meng Chengguang's face suddenly became solemn.

"Fidelity is a household name in the South. They have a wide reach, covering almost every industry, and they've grown very strong. They've already acquired quite a few companies."

Sure enough, this Mr. Wang is not someone easy to get along with.

Meng Yingnian mentally raised his danger level several notches. After all, marching into the capital from the south was a risky undertaking, and this man's brazen arrival had caught him off guard.

Mr. Wang is very good at using the tactics of a strategist, but when the cunning rabbit dies, the running dog is cooked. Whether it is the Xu family or other aristocratic families in the capital, their current actions are to seek the skin of the tiger. It is not certain which of them will be the next to be killed. By the time they really realize this, it will be too late.

"However, we heard that they have recently acquired some beauty brands and also acquired the live streaming industry. We suspect that they may want to enter the daily products market."

Meng Chengguang's words are of great value.

The capital city does not have close ties with southern enterprises, and now Fidelity Industries is the one who has the final say over southern enterprises, so there are many secrets that they do not know.

Xu Hanyuan presumably also conducted some investigations in the south before preparing to collaborate with Mr. Wang. However, Meng Yingnian was certain she hadn't discovered Mr. Wang's acquisition of a cosmetics company, as that was aimed directly at the Xu family.

But is it really wise to offend two families at the same time?

No, Meng Yingnian suddenly realized, it seemed like he was just throwing a smokescreen. In fact, in this business struggle, at first glance, the Meng family had lost many orders, resulting in some economic losses. But in reality, none of those powerful companies had turned away from the Meng family; the only ones who had lost were small customers, fence-sitters who could be lured back with a little perk.

But the real problems were with the families that had partnered with Mr. Wang. They had invested money and connections, and even engaged in unnecessary favors to expand their channels. These problems accumulated over time, and over time, they began to affect the development of their original businesses.

No wonder Mr. Wang dared to lower the price so much to grab the market share. I guess every company has put in a lot of effort. And Mr. Wang's investment is just a way to paralyze them.

Those aristocratic families were holding on tight, waiting for the Meng family to fall so they could grab a piece of the action. Little did they know that Mr. Wang had the same idea. He was just waiting to bring all those aristocratic families down, and then devour them.

It was indeed a very drastic measure. Meng Yingnian expressed his admiration for Mr. Wang.

If there was no such competitive relationship between them, Meng Yingnian would still like to make friends with this person.

Moreover, the Meng family is still a very important part of Mr. Wang's plan. As long as the Meng family responds incorrectly to the issue of snatching the order, not only will those aristocratic families collapse, but the Meng family will also be disrupted by the constant malicious competition.

Fortunately, when the incident first occurred, Meng Yingnian had no intention of using price cuts to resolve the current business war. As a result, the foundation of the Meng family has not been affected.

Thinking of this, Meng Yingnian has already thought of a way to break the deadlock.

Since Mr. Wang is trying to grab the order in this way, let him grab it. Who says that orders cannot be outsourced? Meng Yingnian now wants to be a middleman to make a profit from the difference.

He had never taken action against other aristocratic families before, simply because he felt that the market was too big and there was no need to compete for it. Besides, the Meng family itself was involved in many businesses, so they had to give others a chance to survive.

But now it seems that others don't think so.

"Uncle, what is the main business of the company you are running now?"

Meng Yingnian always felt a little guilty for accepting such a big favor.

He glanced over at the little boy and smiled slightly.

Parents love their children and have long-term plans for them. Since his father wants his son to be able to stand on his own and inherit the family business, then he will help him.

"Now it's mainly about electronic sales."

The reason why Meng Chengguang has such a clear grasp of Mr. Wang’s current movements is purely because the fire has already burned on his head.

"Okay, then leave this child to me. Don't worry, I will make sure he excels in this field."

A chill ran down Meng Yu's spine as he heard Meng Yingnian's words. His future suddenly felt uncertain. What was going on? Could he ever go home? He missed his big bed and his video game console so much. If he'd known he'd be treated like a special forces soldier here, he would have preferred death to submission.

"Then I'll leave it to you to take care of everything."
