" That’s good. Just maintain the efficiency and don’t try to force either natives or local officials if they try to resist the establishment of new branches. We can think of a way for that to happen slowly, for now we have to avoid any conflict especially when it comes to the foundation matters." He added.
Mary nodded in acknowledgement before passing off several documents that would need his signature to approve.
Unlike other departments, Samuel needed to be in charge of this one just to be safe. With so much money involved, it was easier for anyone to get swayed by it.
Most of the money earned by other departments would be funnelled into the foundation for expansion. These were not just mere branches.
These were equipped with state of the art systems and a stable and clean environment for unfortunate children to grow up without a care in the world. Not to mention each station had a equally big hidden basement that would be used by his operatives as a home base for their mission would also cost a money.
With a large landmass and ample area on the outside to build recreational structures, it made them equal to prestigious colleges that ranked top ten in the world.
This was the reason why many countries were apprehensive about the idea, after all only a madman would spend like this just to open an orphanage!
" In few days I will make a detail analysis of what our investment direction would be. I hope Mrs Abigail would prepare the whole department to work hard after the short vacation. Also.." He paused for a second before finally making up his mind.
" Just use five percent of our Group’s profit to reward each employee. That will be extra on top of the bonus that I mentioned earlier." Samuel knew how hard they worked and also was aware how difficult the next decade was going to be.
Maybe they are working for him for money or for loyalty either way, such ’small’ number is well deserved for his people. A way for him to show his appreciation for their hard work.
" Boss, that.." Abigail was trying to say something but he cut her off.

" It’s okay. I know what you want to say but don’t worry, we will not have any downtrend as long as I am at the helm of the company. Maybe the profits wouldn’t increase much compared to previous year but I can guarantee that no one would lose money." He was confident only because of his ability to foresee.
At least in financial sector it was smooth sailing for now but even if something goes wrong, he had too many contingencies plans in woodworks.
Only Theo and Frederick didn’t talk much and only listened. Former had already given his early report when he came out if the elevator and Frederick didn’t have much to add because he would only be repeating what others were saying as he managed the whole group in Samuel’s absence.
The meeting was dismissed with all of them leaving a lot of paperwork for him to go through for more details of Group’s day to day operations.
He could have taken it with him but since he was without a vehicle, he decided it was best to just ship everything back to the estate to read when he was free.
After he left, Abigail gathered every employee of the firm in the large meeting room. The space wasn’t enough for many of them to sit so they were standing up thinking why they were pulled out from their workstation in the middle of the day.
Everyone had heard about Samuel’s arrival so the news must be important. Some guessed they were downsizing the company as there were too many employees.
They had heard whispers about the profit the firm made for the company which was astronomical still, every company was the same they would think of ways to lower the cost while fantasizing about making even more money the next financial year but most of the times, it would backfire spectacularly.
Still, Greed is a mortal sin that had seduced countless people over humanity’s existence and it would spread it’s influence as long as humankind exist!

Those employees were practically shaking fearing layoff. Seth smiled bitterly looking at everyone’s worried faces.
He had to admit, he paled when compared to his boss when it came to looking after his subordinates. Maybe he was trying to make all of the businesses he was in charge of profitable but he knew it wouldn’t happen overnight.
Instead of worrying about it, he should instead focus more on enhancing company culture shifting away from ever so boring corporate structure that was common in most companies.
As soon as he changed his way of thinking, he immediately came up with several plans that could improve company moral and increase cohesion between each level of management but for now he had to announce about their bonuses.
As soon as he disclosed about the hefty bonus and on top of it a percentage cut of Group’s profit the whole venue went silent but after few seconds they cheered letting out their frustration.
Few of them even shouted Seth’s name like he was some emperor crediting him for fighting for their share. Seth being socially awkward couldn’t sort out their misunderstanding as no one was listening to him anymore.
Abigail on the other hand also did the same and got the same reaction. But there were less cheering from the executives and more from cleaning and other low level departments. Explore more at freewebnovel
