After his father committed suicide, many things did not happen as Robert wanted.
After all, according to the style of their superior family, after sensing the threat, it stands to reason that Zhang Peng should have been killed directly.
However, the former patriarch kept Zhang Peng and even paid him an amazing salary. Why?
It is because of the lack of talents!
As the founding family of Karen Bell, the upper-ranking families, although their great ancestors allowed them to have their current status, these upper-ranking families cannot ensure that each generation can produce talents to maintain the development of the family.
? Although they are strong enough to give them the opportunity to try and make mistakes many times, they will not fail for a generation or two before they will directly decline.
But if there is no talent for a long time, no matter how strong the strength is, it will be squandered.
This is also the main reason why many high-ranking families in Karen Bell completely declined after a few generations.
In fact, the development of the Saul family for several generations has not been very good.
The previous two generations of patriarchs were mediocre. In Robert's father's generation, leaving aside the eldest son with high eyesight and low abilities and the third son who is not doing business, Robert's father, as the second son, still has a little ability, and it is more than enough to keep the family business.
But what makes people crazy is that Robert's father soon discovered that within the entire family, there is not even a single person who can take on great responsibilities. This makes most of the work require him to do it himself, and no one can help him. Effective apportionment.
By the way, it was also thanks to this that Zhang Peng was able to stand up to the former patriarch.
Otherwise, according to the style of the upper class, as long as there is someone who can use it, it is impossible for Zhang Peng to turn.
At this moment, Robert is undoubtedly facing the same problem as his father. Even because of his father's sudden suicide, Robert's current situation is even worse than his father's then.
Right now, he really needs talents who can take care of himself. For this reason, even Uncle Gao Wen, who is not doing his job properly, was lured by him to come to work.
Under this premise, how can Zhang Peng, a real talent who can help him a lot, let go?
Therefore, in this situation, Robert couldn't take oppressive measures like his father did, and continue to suppress Zhang Peng.
For this reason, he also quietly changed his approach to dealing with Zhang Peng.
Back then, when he was first accepted into the Saul family, Zhang Peng would talk to him from time to time, which relieved his anxious heart, and he even had a good impression of Zhang Peng for a time.
But Robert has never been stupid. After getting used to the new environment and calming down, as time passed, did Robert really never think about why Zhang Peng talked to him so frequently?
How can it be?
In fact, he had already guessed in his heart.
Combined with his father's evaluation of Zhang Peng, Robert undoubtedly understood better.
Approaching him purposefully and establishing a good relationship with him inevitably made Robert feel a little displeased.
But from another point of view, in today's society, it is really difficult for you to find someone who does not have any purpose at all. Everyone does things with a certain purpose. Actually no problem.
In addition, Zhang Peng has not done anything to harm him after all, and even helped him a lot back and forth.
Therefore, Robert did not actually have any clear ill feeling towards Zhang Peng.
And after this incident, Robert has made it clear in his heart that he needs to change his strategy, instead of taking tough measures to control Zhang Peng, he will use favors with the other party instead.
Judging from the current situation, a grassroots Zhang Peng, in fact, is still inseparable from their Saul family in a short period of time, and still has to do his best to help him.
By the time Zhang Peng has accumulated enough strength and plans to break away and establish his own family, Robert probably has completely controlled the Saul family.
At that time, well, if Zhang Peng wants to leave, let him go, just to sell the other party a favor.
The former patriarch is dead, and the past is also in the past, and no one wants to mention it again.
Facing Robert's great favor, Zhang Peng had no choice but to accept it.
Under this premise, Robert specially brought Zhang Peng with him during the secret meeting with Huo Qiguang and Frans.
While he wanted to show his trust in him and change his mind through this move, Robert actually had another goalinside.
That is to test Zhang Peng to see if the other party will betray him.
If there is no change from the other party, it means that Zhang Peng is still credible for the time being, and Robert can promote him to the accompanying secretary with more peace of mind.
After that, only a week later, for Robert, a very important day came, and that was the report meeting that the Saul family would have at the end of every quarter.
The report meeting is mainly divided into two parts. The first part is for members of the Saul family who hold important positions in various departments of Karen Bell, and let them each make a work report.
And the other part is the report on the family business. To put it more bluntly, it tells you whether you have made money or lost money.
In the past, the Saul family was more concerned about the former.
But this time, due to the great changes within the family, all the clansmen are now more concerned about the latter.
When the former patriarch committed suicide, the report meeting at the end of the quarter was not far away.
During this period of time, under the premise that other high-ranking families are constantly making moves, it is difficult for Robert to fully control the family business. Therefore, this quarter, the industry of their Saul family will experience a sharp decline in profits, or even losses. among things.
Even family members who don't care about this work on weekdays will not naively think that this quarter can maintain a good income.
The focus now is to see whether the Saul family's business can be stabilized in the next two quarters.
However, what they didn't expect was that although the income of other family businesses had dropped sharply, the part of the business that had been managed by Robert before, even in this extraordinary period, still made very impressive achievements. The results, its income, directly swept the top five of all the industries of the Saul family.
This report is enough to prove Robert's management ability more thoroughly.
At this moment, Robert could clearly feel that his position in the Saul family had become more stable.
This also allowed Robert to gradually shift his energy to his membership as a member.
In the previous meeting of the House of Lords, due to the fact that the family was too busy to take care of themselves, for the sake of keeping a low profile, Robert directly acted as a transparent person in the House of Lords.
And now that the family has stabilized, it's time for him, the new Senator Saul, to show his presence.
At the latest meeting, Robert's sudden statement caused many members of the upper family to conjecture.
Because the proposal he expressed his support for at that time was proposed by Huo Qiguang, which called for improving the treatment of retired soldiers!
