Chapter 229: Chapter 229: Make a Friend

In the following days, the purchasing managers obediently came to report all their work to Ding Liang, even handing over purchase contracts for him to approve.

As for the official purchasing manager, Duan Yongyan, he was completely sidelined.

One day, Ding Liang was sitting with his legs propped up on the desk, acting like a big shot on the phone with a supplier that was fawning over him, when the office door was suddenly kicked open. Duan Yongyan stormed in, furious.

"Ding Liang,what the hell do you think you’re doing? A country bumpkin who’s just arrived and you want to take over my authority. You think I’m made of paper, huh?"

Duan Yongyan pointed and cursed at Ding Liang.

But Ding Liang hung up the phone leisurely, then smiled and looked at Duan Yongyan.

"Manager Duan, what are you talking about? I’m just trying to relieve you of your worries, not wanting you to overwork yourself. When did I ever say I wanted to take your authority?"

Duan Yongyan wasn’t going to fall for that, "All the purchasing managers and suppliers have been sweet-talked by you to come here, and you still dare to say you don’t want to take over? You think I’m an idiot?"

"You haven’t even settled in yet you’re thinking of stealing my business. You’ve got guts, I’ll give you that. I’m going to see President Han right now and get this straightened out. I want to see if this is her doing, or you’re just causing trouble here!"

Faced with Duan Yongyan’s threats, Ding Liang was not worried in the slightest.

"Sure, if you think I’d dare to make such a big move without my sister’s consent, then go ahead and ask!"

"You think I’m scared?"

Despite his harsh words, Duan Yongyan felt uncertain deep down.

He was also unsure whether Ding Liang’s power grab was orchestrated by Han Jingting.

If that were truly the case, then asking now could get him immediately removed, with no chance to redeem himself.

Only to hear Ding Liang continue, "By all means, go ahead and ask. But before you do, you might want to take a look at this!"

As he spoke, Ding Liang threw a stack of documents in front of Duan Yongyan.

Duan Yongyan glanced at the documents and his heart sank as cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

The files clearly revealed records of kickbacks he had received from suppliers and the transactions of large sums of money with unclear sources in his account!

And these were enough to land Duan Yongyan in jail!

"You... how do you have these!" Duan Yongyan looked at Ding Liang in disbelief.

Ding Liang sneered, "How I got these is none of your concern. What you should worry about is how you’re going to talk to me in the future!"

Duan Yongyan felt a chill down his spine.

For the first time, he realized that this seemingly warm and gentle young man in front of him was actually terrifying!

"You play rough!"

With that, Duan Yongyan left the office without looking back.

That evening, Duan Yongyan went straight to Han Chengye.

Although Han Corporation wasn’t large, there were still factions within it.

And Duan Yongyan had always been Han Chengye’s man.

"President Han! Damn it, that Han Jingting is going too far!"

As soon as he entered the door, Duan Yongyan started complaining, telling Han Chengye about Han Jingting arranging for Ding Liang to usurp his authority.

But instead, Han Chengye’s eyes lit up, "I didn’t expect Han Jingting to have such a ruthless person under her command! Hahaha..."

Duan Yongyan, however, could not laugh, "President Han, that kid’s got something on me now, and I’m stuck between a rock and a hard place. What should I do?"

Han Chengye looked relaxed, "Don’t be nervous, he’s just a nobody desperate to climb up the ladder, he can’t stir up any real trouble!"

Duan Yongyan: "What should I do now, President Han?"

Han Chengye thought for a moment, "You go and tell Han Jingting you’re sick today and take a week’s leave first."

"Take a leave? That kid is eyeing my position right now. If I take a leave, wouldn’t I be playing right into his hands?" Duan Yongyan didn’t understand.

Han Chengye’s lips curled into a cold smile, "Don’t worry, it’s just a stalling strategy. When you come back after a week, it might not only be that runt getting the boot, but Han Jingting might be rolling out with him! Hahaha..."

During this period, Han Chengye had always been looking for an opportunity to turn the tables, and unexpectedly, Ding Liang had delivered himself to the doorstep.

It was as if heaven was helping me!

The next day, Duan Yongyan asked Han Jingting for a week’s sick leave as Han Chengye had instructed.

As Duan Yongyan had expected, once he took his leave, the entire decision-making power of the procurement department fell into Ding Liang’s hands.

Having only been in the company for a week, he was already exercising the authority of a manager, which made Ding Liang extremely proud.

What big city, what big company, they’re all just playthings in his palm!

As Ding Liang rose to power, those directors in the purchasing department became even more respectful towards him.

Those suppliers, too, were now buttering up to Ding Liang like crazy.

One day, Ding Liang received a call from a supplier, who said they had a big order they wanted to collaborate with Ding Liang on.

In the evening, Ding Liang went to the restaurant for the appointment.

As soon as he entered the private room, the supplier boss Wong Lei came up with a sycophantic smile on his face.

"Manager Ding, you’ve arrived, please take a seat!"

Ding Liang sat down, and Wong Lei even took the initiative to light a cigarette for him, a pleasing attitude that Ding Liang found quite satisfying.

"Boss Wong, just speak plainly, what’s this big order you mentioned?"

Wong Lei took out a contract from his bag and handed it to Ding Liang with both hands.

"Please, Manager Ding, take a look."

Ding Liang casually flipped through it, recognizing it as a relatively simple medicinal supply contract.

However, when Ding Liang saw the amount on the contract, he was stunned.

"One hundred and twenty million?"

The usual procurement contracts of Han Corporation were generally just a few million, up to tens of millions, with those exceeding fifty million being a rarity.

Now, the other party suddenly came up with a one hundred and twenty million big order for him to sign, which truly gave Ding Liang quite the shock.

Wong Lei explained, "Here’s the situation, Manager Ding, one of Han Corporation’s drugs is supplied to Medicine King Hospital. There happens to be a big order from Medicine King Hospital that needs our Han Corporation’s supply, and our company’s materials are just right for it."

Ding Liang said with an air of arrogance, "I’m aware of that, but that order was intended to be divided among five suppliers. Your Daler Company wants to swallow such a big order in one gulp, isn’t that a bit too greedy?"

Wong Lei smiled knowingly and hurriedly took out a bank card from his bag and handed it over.

"Rest assured, Manager Ding, we will not let you work in vain. There’s one million in this card as a token of our sincerity, and after the deal is done, there will be another four million. No other meaning, just want to make friends with Manager Ding!"

Looking at the bank card in front of him, Ding Liang’s eyes sparkled with excitement.

One million!

For Ding Liang, this was simply an astronomical figure!

You have to know that in his previous small company, working himself to death for several years, he had only managed to get three to four hundred thousand in kickbacks.

And now, he had earned one million in one go, and after the deal, he would get even more, totaling five million!

In his former company, he would have feared he could never earn that much money in his entire life!

In his heart, Ding Liang couldn’t help but feel, indeed, it was good to be sheltered by a big tree!
