Jiang Yehan ignored Jiang Yangxu and continued to stare at Old Master Jiang, hoping for his answer.
The idea to transfer the management rights of the pharmaceutical company to her handsome new dad was Jiang Youli's. As for the 10% shares, she genuinely hadn't thought of asking for them.
Everything she did was to take away everything Jiang Yangxu's family currently possessed and to give all these family assets to her handsome new dad and beautiful new mom as their retirement capital.
She had already earned more than enough money herself and didn't care a whit about the Jiang family's wealth.
Yet, her handsome dad's desire to fight for the family inheritance on her behalf still moved and delighted her deeply.
Old Master Jiang frowned, clearly also feeling that his eldest son's demand was somewhat excessive.
"Yehan, you should understand perfectly well that I've already decided regarding Starlight Entertainment's management rights. If Jiang Xing fails to produce results this month, next month the management will formally be handed over to Youli. Now, for you to also want to take the management rights of the pharmaceutical company from your second brother's hands is indeed going too far."
Hearing Old Master Jiang speak like this, Jiang Yangxu's expression finally eased somewhat.
Thank goodness, the old man wasn't foolish enough to go that far!
Jiang Yehan seemed to have anticipated Old Master Jiang's attitude. He then said, "Then I'll compromise. Just like with Starlight Entertainment, six months, a maximum of six months. If the Jiang Family Pharmaceutical Company still shows no breakthrough under second brother's management, Dad, you must hand the company's management rights over to me. However, the 10% share compensation for Youli cannot be reduced!"
At the very least, even if the pharmaceutical company truly remained in the second brother's hands in the future, the child Youli would still hold solid shares and receive dividends.
"Big Brother, don't push people too far! Do you think drug research, development, and production are as simple as growing chives? That breakthroughs happen just because you say so? What can be done in six months?" Jiang Yangxu still disagreed with this penalty.
Jiang Yehan sneered, "If our Jiang Pharmaceutical Company still can't achieve a breakthrough in six months, keeping it in your hands will only cause it to depreciate further. What's the use of you stubbornly holding onto it? It would be better to let me give it a try."
"Big Brother, don't overestimate yourself. Your own AI company, Green Bud Tech, hasn't even produced results yet, and you're already thinking of cross-industry management for my side?" After his sarcastic remark, Jiang Yangxu looked at Old Master Jiang. "Dad, our Jiang family's pharmaceutical company has always been managed by me. Although there haven't been any groundbreaking developments so far, I've still accumulated management experience, haven't I? If Big Brother really takes over and applies his Green Bud Tech management model rigidly to our pharmaceutical company, there's absolutely no way it will yield any good results!"
At that moment, Jiang Youli, who had been silent all along, spoke up. "Who says there can't be a breakthrough? What if, once my dad takes over management, we can immediately collaborate with the Zhou Family?"
Mentioning the Zhou Family, Jiang Yangxu's face immediately darkened.
Even Old Master Jiang was greatly shocked and asked incredulously, "The Zhou Family? Could it be that Zhou Family with the profound scientific research background?"
Jiang Youli nodded without hesitation. "Yes, Grandfather, precisely that Zhou Family."
Old Master Jiang, who had been somewhat hesitant, now couldn't help but waver. "Youli, you're truly not joking?"
Jiang Youli replied with a serious expression, "Grandfather, of course I'm not joking."
Jiang Yangxu could see that if he didn't do something, the old man really would be persuaded by Jiang Youli!
"Hmph! Who do you think you are? Just a snot-nosed little girl, yet you have the audacity to claim the Zhou Family will cooperate with you? What a pipe dream!" Jiang Yangxu deliberately put on a face full of disdain and questioned.
Immediately, he turned to Old Master Jiang and explained urgently, "Dad, although the girl Jiang Youli does know the young master of the Zhou Family, that young master hasn't inherited the family business at all! He spends his days idle, just writing novels in that online literature circle, earning a little pocket money. What company decision-making power could a kid like that have? That he can decide who to cooperate with just because he says so? Isn't that ridiculous? In the end, it's still up to his father to make the final call! Don't believe Jiang Youli's nonsense; she's clearly just painting a rosy picture!"
Hah, painting a rosy picture?
The research behind Uncle Zhou's medicinal herb cultivation base relied mainly on her.
Jiang Youli wasn't foolish either. She kept the cultivation methods for the extremely rare herbs she had painstakingly developed to herself. Only the ones that were easier to cultivate and popularize would she introduce into the Zhou Family's herb base for expansion.
After all, she really couldn't be bothered to set up a large-scale cultivation base herself, requiring too much effort, manpower, and resources to manage. Tending to her own medicinal garden was enough.
Given her authority in herb cultivation, as long as she proposed cooperation, Uncle Zhou couldn't possibly refuse.
Jiang Youli couldn't be bothered to explain. She just mocked, "At least I can paint a rosy picture, and I dare to paint one. Unlike you, Second Uncle, who can't even paint one, doesn't know how to paint one, and doesn't have the ability to paint one."
Jiang Yangxu, feeling the displeasure of his authority being challenged, immediately roared at her, "Jiang Youli, watch your words! Even if I'm not your father, I am your second uncle, your elder!"
"Oh? An elder who doesn't act with the dignity of one?" Jiang Youli wasn't intimidated at all and even added a teasing remark.
"You're so arrogant and disrespectful! Do you have any of the upbringing expected of a young lady of our Jiang Family?" Jiang Yangxu continued to reproach.
"You have upbringing, that's why you raised a son like Jiang Zhao," Jiang Youli retorted mercilessly. "Either looking down on people and offending the Zhou Family's only son, or tampering with my car and ending up getting hit himself."
"Speaking of which, Second Uncle, you've always wanted to cooperate with the Zhou Family, haven't you? What a pity. Your son Jiang Zhao takes after you in upbringing, offended Zhou Yi, and wanting to cooperate with the Zhou Family is truly a fantasy now."
"And most annoyingly, the Zhou Family will, for the sake of this Jiang Family young lady with 'no upbringing,' cooperate with the pharmaceutical company after my dad takes it over."
She deliberately poked at Jiang Yangxu's sore spots. With every additional word she spoke, Jiang Yangxu's face grew darker.
Hah, when it came to psychological resilience, she was an expert!
Even Zhang Susu couldn't help but almost laugh out loud. This child Youli's mouth... when it's sweet towards her and Ahan, it's truly sweet, but when it's venomous towards Jiang Yangxu's family, it's truly venomous.
Jiang Yangxu sharply interrupted, "Enough!"
His voice was as cold as if it could drop shards of ice.
However, Jiang Youli had no intention of stopping. "Not enough. Someone as ill-bred as me, how could I possibly know when to stop?"
"Oh, right, Second Uncle, don't waste your effort making Jiang Yonghe apologize to Zhou Yi either. Because when she called Zhou Yi to apologize today, Zhou Yi was right next to me with the speaker on. Zhou Yi gave her a thorough scolding, making her so aggrieved she cried."
"Back then, you doted on this adopted daughter of yours so much, insisting on keeping her and unwilling to let her marry the disabled Young Master Qi of the Qi Family. So how is it that now, you're willing to let your precious adopted daughter suffer such humiliation in front of Zhou Yi?"
