Chapter: 2855
“Furthermore, I want to be the only one in charge of the operations and finances. The ownership should belong solely to me, and I must not have any ties to the Su family!”
Su Chengfeng was stunned. He hadn’t expected Su Zhiyu to ask for so much. He thought to himself, “Does she really want the entire ocean transportation business of the Su family?”
He remembered that the total assets of Su Jiaguang in this business were over 300 billion! That meant Su Zhiyu was asking for at least 20% of the family’s wealth. “She really is ambitious!” he mused.
Su Chengfeng loved his power and was unwilling to let anyone take it from him. Even at his age, he felt the need to maintain control as the head of the Su family and oversee every part of their business, including their finances. His seven children had never brought up the idea of splitting the family business before, but when they finally did, he had firmly rejected them each time. Eventually, they changed their approach and suggested dividing the business among themselves, allowing different family members to take charge. But Su Chengfeng still disagreed.
He saw himself as a king, unwilling to share his kingdom with anyone, even his own children. To him, the Su family was his alone, and he refused to give up any portion of it.
So, when he heard Su Zhiyu’s request, his first reaction was anger. In the past, if anyone, even his own children, had dared to speak to him this way, he would have reprimanded them harshly and sent them away. However, now, with various challenges looming over him, he had to rethink Su Zhiyu’s demands.
Su Chengfeng was deep in thought. He realized that if he refused to agree to her request and she held a release meeting that night, it would ruin his reputation. He worried about what would happen if her supporter defended her and turned against him. He knew he had to promise her something before Xuan Fengnian dealt with her benefactor.
He also considered how the Su family’s shipping business was basically shut down. Even if he handed it over to her temporarily, she wouldn’t be able to make any significant changes or gain anything from it. Once he eliminated the threats behind her, he could easily reclaim those businesses.
With these thoughts in mind, Su Chengfeng gritted his teeth and said, “Alright! I promise you! The Su family’s ocean transportation business will be yours in the future. When you can, come to Suhang to meet me, and I will get all the necessary files and contracts ready for you.”
Su Zhiyu replied, “Grandpa, I’m still upset with you, so I might not be able to face you right now. I’ll have a lawyer help with the contract.”
Su Chengfeng thought for just a moment before responding, “No problem! I will send Su Anshun to Suzhou and Hangzhou. You can coordinate with him and find a lawyer. Once everything is set up, the Su’s Ocean Shipping Group will be yours!”
