In the study of the Moreton Manor.
Geoffrey sat behind his desk, and looked at Gloria, who was standing in front of him, as he said, "From today onwards, all the Family Moreton's cloth-related businesses will be under your management. Suede and those factories that you set up don't have to be incorporated into the family's businesses. They all belong to you. All the businesses that you set up and expanded with your own capital will be considered your personal assets. "
"Thank you." Gloria smiled delightedly. Although these were things that Geoffrey had promised before, she was still a little excited after it was confirmed.
This meant that she had officially become the manager of Family Moreton. Even though the cloth-related businesses were no longer the strongest business of the Family Moreton, they still had some say in the Chaos City's cloth-related businesses because they had started out in this area.
"You earned this through your own hard work. You don't have to thank me," Geoffrey said calmly. A hint of relief flashed across his eyes. He continued, "Family Moreton's cloth-related businesses have been declining in recent years. They are incurring losses. The Roth Empire has taken over a large portion of the market with their low-priced cloths. What you need to do next is to integrate the complicated channels and streamline the supply chain so that they can continue to survive. I will give you three months. If you can't stop them from incurring losses, I will shut down all the cloth-related businesses completely. "
"What if I can do it?" Gloria asked in return.
Geoffrey looked at Gloria's fearless eyes. He was silent for a moment before he said, "Then they will belong to you, just like Suede."
"I will work hard." Gloria nodded seriously. Her eyes were filled with enthusiasm, and she quickly bade farewell.
"This girl is really like her father. They both have a strong drive. However, she is willing to put this drive into business, while Lance only wants to teach the child." Geoffrey retracted his gaze from the door after a long while. A self-deprecating smile appeared on his face. Seems like I might become the next Ian. This old man is probably already thinking of how to mock me.
…
"Mars, I'm going to the Buffett Manor. I need to thank Miss Hill in person." Gloria came out of the study and ordered Mars, who was standing at the door.
"Yes, Miss." Mars smiled and nodded. As he walked, he opened the folder in his hand and said, "Last night, there were 85 members who registered to donate. The total amount of donations was 13.2 million copper coins. Among them, 8.2 million copper coins have been received."
Gloria stopped in her tracks, and pondered for a moment before saying, "Then after we meet Miss Hill, we'll make a trip to Chaos School and give this money to Teacher Luna. If we hurry up, we might be able to build another batch of school buildings before school starts next year, and enroll more children."
"Yes, Miss." Mars nodded, and then asked, "Do you want to go to Amy's for lunch today?"
"Although I really want to eat Mr. Meg's tofu pudding, the queue is too long. Let's go after the opening hours. I have something to discuss with Mr. Meg," Gloria said with a smile.
…
"I have something to announce to everyone. I have received an invitation from the Falk Tribe. They want our restaurant to head to the Falk Tribe to be in charge of Gary's coronation banquet," Meg announced during lunch.
Yabemiya's eyes lit up, and he said, "That's great. Weren't we worried about how to get to the Falk Tribe? This way, we will have a legal identity, and can appear at the banquet directly. "
Everyone was elated too.
"You have connections in the Falk Tribe too?" Camilla looked at Meg suspiciously.
"What's the connection? It's just that I have a good reputation." Meg sighed with a helpless expression.
"You all have legal identities to go in. What about me?" Connie asked worriedly.
"I say, that's your home. You won't get lost if you go home, right?" Meg looked at Connie speechlessly. "Moreover, didn't you learn how to move stealthily during this period of time? You can even enter and leave the Bastie Prison as you wish. Is it difficult for you to sneak into your own home? "
Everyone was also looking at Connie with smiles.
"Er … That's me. Just in case." Connie blushed, and embarrassedly said, "If I get lost, you all have to come and save me."
"The agreed time is five days later. Everyone should prepare in advance. Because there might be some dangerous situations, Phyllis, Anna, Jane, and Raina won't be going with everyone," Meg continued.
Phyllis raised her hand, and softly said, "I … I think I can do it. Otherwise, no one can help you cut the vegetables."
Meg shook his head with a smile. "You need to stay behind and be in charge of the Night Elves' meals. If I bring you along, the canteen won't be able to operate."
"I will come up with the specific plan in the next few days. Our goal is to save Connie's brother, overthrow the kingslayer Gary at the same time, and let the Falk Tribe return to its rightful rule," Meg said to everyone.
Camilla furrowed her brows, and said, "I agree with saving her brother, but do you think we can overthrow Gary with just the few of us? As the second orc tribe, the Falk Tribe isn't weak. "
"That's great. I was worried that it would be boring to fight if we were too weak." Irina picked up a piece of shiitake mushroom, and paused for a moment before saying, "Leave Gary to me."
…
"Mr. Meg, are you going out?"
After the lunch service ended, Meg pushed his bicycle out, and was about to make a trip to the mercenary union when Gloria's voice sounded from behind him.
"Gloria, are you looking for me?" Meg asked with a smile as he turned to look at Gloria, who had just alighted from the horse-drawn carriage.
Gloria walked up with a nod, and said, "Yes. It's about Suede and me personally. I want to talk to you about some things, and hear your opinion."
"Alright, then come in." Meg thought for a while, and stopped his bicycle at the side. He opened the door and gestured for her to enter the restaurant.
"Am I keeping you from going out?" Gloria asked worriedly.
"It's alright. I don't have anything urgent to do." Meg shook his head with a smile.
Warm steam rose from the pot of black tea.
"Congratulations on winning the vote yesterday," Meg said with a smile as he poured a cup of tea for Gloria, and placed it in front of her gently.
"Thank you." Gloria held the cup gently with her hand. She didn't know if it was because the shop was too warm, but she was blushing slightly.
The atmosphere was a little ambiguous, so Meg started the conversation first. "Is there any problem with Suede?"
"The new clothes are going to be launched soon. Perhaps it's because the beautiful ladies from Mamy's wore them in advance, and it gave the new clothes a good publicity effect. The first batch of down jackets that haven't been launched yet have all been pre-ordered. The factory is rushing to produce the second batch of down jackets, and they might have to expand a few more production lines. Moreover, some customers have reported that the price of the clothes in Suede is too high, and it's not very friendly to ordinary consumers. Do you think I should lower the price? "Gloria asked Meg.
