Chapter 733: Chapter 733: This is the position specially prepared for you by Grandpa_1

Wen Zhanxiao was the child of Wen Tianning’s brother, the sixth in the Wen Family, hence he was also known as Wen Laoliu.

He studied abroad in his early years, and after completing his education there, he was assigned by Wen Tianning to take charge of the Wen Family’s foreign trade business overseas.

Over the years, Wen Zhanxiao created considerable wealth for the Wen Family and even made many connections with nobility and high-ranking officials abroad.

Before Wen Biyu’s father passed away, he had not harbored any crooked ideas, but as Wen Biyu’s parents died in a car accident, and Wen Tianning began to age, he started having his own ambitions.

In his eyes, he was highly capable, and the Wen Family had limitless potential. If he were in control of the Wen Family, it was very likely that within ten years, Wen Corporation could burst out of Jiangling City and even aspire to become a world-class international enterprise.

If there were to be a competitor, it should be Wen Zhanyun, who was in charge of Linglong Pavilion, not the naive young girl Wen Biyu!

At this moment, Wen Tianning was also wearing a stern face, feeling extremely depressed.

Ever since Wen Biyu graduated from university and joined the Wen Family, initially, the Family Head had her stay by his side, ostensibly to learn. However, in less than two years, she had taken over half of the businesses he managed.

Admittedly, Wen Biyu was extremely capable, but such an overt stripping of power would unsettle anyone.

Especially in recent years, the Family Head had handed over 40% of the company’s businesses for Wen Biyu to manage, even the most profitable Wen Family Chain Pharmacies.

Today, the Family Head even took Wen Biyu to the Wen Family ancestral shrine.

According to the rules, women shouldn’t enter the ancestral shrine, yet the Family Head not only allowed her to come but also let Wen Biyu sit next to him, which implied a deep meaning.

"Grandfather, I’m fine standing. I won’t sit," Wen Biyu said as she entered the shrine and felt the atmosphere was a bit odd. She waved her hands, declining the offer.

"That won’t do. This is a seat your grandfather specially prepared for you, Biyu!" Wen Tianning seemed to sense the jealous and speculative gazes around him, snorted through his nose, and spoke indifferently, "Others might want to sit here, but they don’t have the qualifications!"

"Listen to your grandfather, sit down first."

Hearing this, everyone lowered their heads silently, not daring to speak.

Wen Zhanxiao and Wen Zhanyun’s lips twitched slightly. They looked at each other, each seeing anger and helplessness in the other’s eyes.

Several clan elders, not daring to offend Wen Tianning, hastily flattered Wen Biyu:

"Biyu, since the Family Head arranged for you to sit, please sit."

"Yes, it’s just a seat. Sit down first and we’ll talk."

Wen Biyu was about to decline again when her grandfather caught her arm and gently shook his head. She then softly replied, "Alright then."

Once Wen Biyu formally took her seat, Wen Tianning stood up and said in a heavy tone, "Today, I’ve called everyone here to learn about the recent business developments of the company. Please report one by one."

"Zhanxiao, you are in charge of the overseas situation. You go first."

"Yes!"

Wen Zhanxiao nodded and briefly introduced the overseas development of Wen Corporation during this period.

Taking advantage of Wen Zhanxiao’s speech, Wen Tianning quietly asked his granddaughter, "Biyu, how are your talks going with Mister Mo?"

At the mention of Mo Han, Wen Biyu couldn’t help but let out a bitter smile and shook her head, "He said he has a wife and children and cannot let them down, resolutely choosing to reject the proposition."

"I still need to persist. He said he values our friendship very much and doesn’t want it to be tainted by other things."

Wen Tianning’s eyebrows furrowed. Was this a threat?

"Mister Mo, oh Mister Mo, your mind is really one-tracked," he continued, "So what happened after that?"

"After that, I lied to him saying it was just a test to alleviate the awkwardness, but Mister Mo then offered to recognize me as his sworn sister."

Wen Biyu bit her red lips, her face full of frustration, "Grandfather, am I really not comparable to Luo Ning?"

Wen Tianning sighed deeply, patted his granddaughter’s shoulder, and spoke somewhat helplessly, "It’s not that you don’t compare to her, it’s that you appeared too late."

"With your qualifications, any man would be moved. The only thing to blame is that the timing of your meeting was wrong."

"If you had met Mister Mo before Luo Ning..."

Wen Biyu obviously understood this rationale; her eyes filled with tears as she pursed her lips and asked, "Grandfather, do you think there’s still a chance for Mister Mo and me?"

Wen Tianning closed his eyes, pondered for a brief moment, and then asked with a smile, "Biyu, what do you think Mister Mo is lacking the most right now?"

What is Mister Mo lacking the most?

Wen Biyu paused, not quite understanding her grandfather’s implication.

Wen Tianning affectionately stroked his granddaughter’s head and answered for himself, "Mister Mo is peerless in medicine and martial arts, and he has powerful people like Miss Qin of Dragon City and the renowned physician Xue Lao backing him up in terms of connections, so it seems like he lacks nothing."

"But in reality, what Mister Mo lacks the most is his own power base—a power base solely under his control!"

"Whether it’s Tao Wenqiang from Jiangnan City or the young master from Dragon City, Nie Huihuang, the reason they want to bully Mister Mo is that he doesn’t have his own power base!"

"Although Mister Mo comes from humble beginnings and is highly capable, it is still very difficult for him to make waves in this era."

He paused, then turned the topic around again, "Biyu, what do you think the Wen Family needs to advance further?"

Wen Biyu was smart and quickly grasped her grandfather’s intent, "Grandfather, do you mean to bring Mister Mo into our Wen Family?"

"Correct! Originally, my plan was to have Mister Mo marry into our Wen Family, but it seems unlikely to happen in the short run."

Wen Tianning stroked his beard, his voice determined, "Fortunately, Mister Mo has recognized you as his sworn sister. You and he are now, to some extent, family."

"Our Wen Family has wealth and power, Mister Mo has ability and connections. Our Wen Family can provide comprehensive support to Mister Mo. Take, for example, his recent acquisition of Fuyuan Pharmaceutical Factory. Whatever he produces, our Wen Family pharmacies will spare no effort to sell it for him!"

"In just a few years, Mister Mo will be able to use the power of our Wen Family to establish his own power base, and then no one will dare to provoke him openly!"

"And our Wen Family will also rise several notches in overall strength because of this cooperation with Mister Mo!"

"This is absolutely a win-win idea!"

"However, I am old, and there is inevitably a generation gap between Mister Mo and myself, making it inconvenient for me to come forward."

"Therefore, my plan is to promote you to the forefront, to have you take charge of the Wen Family!"
