Benjamin sneered, “Your eyes? You must be joking? Should we bet the future of the entire enterprise on your judgment? Are you undertaking a trifling act?”
When the boss had taken the lead to oppose, and the rest of the lackeys followed through with even more ruthless objections. Everyone at the scene scolded Thomas and claimed that his idea was ridiculous and unrealistic. The bustling noise did not fade away for a long time.
Finally, Zach could no longer stand it and favonovel.com slammed on the table fiercely, “Silence!”
He looked around the crowd, and no one dared to speak anymore.
When favonovel.com saw such a scenario, Zach developed more faith in Thomas. The management of the entire branch company was basically controlled by Benjamin. If there was no staff reshuffling, the Southland District branch would really be finished soon. He held back his anger and said earnestly, “Everyone, listen to me, this idea does sound crazy. However, Thomas’ ability has been here for all to see. It was a miracle for Thomas to inspect one hundred pieces of top-quality jade stones consecutively before this. Later on, dozens of companies rushed to sign contracts with him.”
“Thomas is absolutely a top talent in the inspection of jade. I’ve never met another person who possesses similar strength to him. Therefore, I dare to bet the future of the company on him. If I try to take a step back, I won’t mind if Thomas loses the bet. Without Thomas, Stellar Jewelers would not have its current standing. I can definitely afford to lose this bet!”
When the chairman had said so, what else could the others say?
Even though the crowd did not want to approve Thomas, they were running out of ideas.
Zach did not provide the crowd with any room for rebuttal and said directly, “The reason I assembled you all here is not to discuss this with you, but to inform you about this. Remember, from now on, everyone in the company has to cooperate with Thomas’ actions, otherwise, just get lost from here!”
No one dared to look straight into Zach’s eyes.
“Meeting is adjourned.”
Following Zach’s order, everyone got up slowly and left the conference room.
After everyone had left, Zach and Thomas exchanged gazes at each other and said nothing. All they wanted to say was conveyed in silence.
They had done their parts to act this scene out. Now it was the other party’s turn to finish off the show.
On one side, Benjamin and Alton returned to the office and immediately locked the door. The two people hid in the room and discussed their plan in hushed tones.
“No, what were Zach and Thomas trying to convey? Are they trying to mess things up?” Zach said with a confused look.
“Are we involving all branch companies around the world and betting the future of Stellar Jewelers based on Thomas’ judgment? This does not make sense at all.”
Alton sneered and said, “Isn’t this good? Anyway, our purpose is to destroy Stellar Jewelers. It’s alright now. Without having us to take further action, they are already destroying themselves.”
Benjamin furrowed his brows. He sat down and tapped his fingers lightly on the table.
“Do you think Thomas’ plan would come through?”
“How is that possible?”
The more Benjamin thought about it, the more worried favonovel.com became, “Remember what happened last time? He managed to inspect one hundred top-quality raw stones consecutively. Thomas is by no means an ordinary person. During this time, I also did some investigations secretly. Whichever jewelry company that cooperates with Thomas has made a lot of money. Every time Thomas is asked to inspect raw stone, favonovel.com has not made any misjudgments on one piece of stone. Perhaps Thomas really has a special way of distinguishing the top-quality raw stones.”
Alton also started feeling that something is wrong. He was a little nervous and said, “If this is the case, then the situation is not favorable to us. If Thomas really spends two billion and five hundred million to buy out all the top-quality raw stones from the three major suppliers, then Weiss can only buy inferior raw stones. Or else, favonovel.com has to spend several times more money to purchase goods from other places. In this way, Elite Jewelry’s capital funding chain will not be able to sustain itself.”
Both of them started to realize the seriousness of the problem. Now, they could only bet on Thomas’ inspection accuracy.
Benjamin said, “Alton, keep an eye on Thomas for me. Then, find a way to verify the accuracy of his inspection.”
“Actually, do we even require verification for such a matter?”
