Rebirth: Fan Debiao rises from the Liaobei land

The whole "golden and glittering" poaching spree went on for half a month, but in the end, it was all bark and no bite.

Of the eight people who left, five returned. Of the remaining three, one went to work in the south, and two returned home to get married.

On Victoria's side, morale was stable. Fan Debiao kept his word; wages were indeed raised, and quarterly bonuses were paid out. The employees, after receiving their paychecks, were all praising Brother Biao behind his back.

But Old Qian didn't stop.

That morning, three people from the tax bureau came and went directly to Awei.

"Manager Liu, someone has reported you for tax evasion. We're here to check the accounts."

When Fan Debiao heard this, he knew perfectly well that it was Lao Qian's doing again.

"Gentlemen, Victoria has always paid taxes in accordance with the law, and our accounts are clear," Avi said with a smile. "How about we go to the finance office and check it out slowly?"

Section Chief Liu, who was leading the team, said with a stern face: "No need, we'll check right here. Bring out all the accounts for this year."

Awei quickly went to get the account book. Fan Debiao made a phone call to Wu Derong.

Ten minutes later, Wu Derong arrived, beaming as he entered: "Section Chief Liu, what brings you here?"

Section Chief Liu knew Wu Derong, and his expression softened somewhat: "Mr. Wu, someone reported us, and we're just handling it officially."

"I understand," Wu Derong said. "We will definitely cooperate."

After checking all morning, the accounts were crystal clear, not a single penny was missing. Section Chief Liu couldn't find any problems and was somewhat embarrassed.

Taking the opportunity, Wu Derong said, "Section Chief Liu, don't leave at noon, have a simple meal with us."

"No, no, we have other tasks to complete." Section Chief Liu left with his men.

After seeing the tax bureau staff off, Wu Derong's face darkened: "Old Qian is never going to stop."

Fan Debiao said, "President Wu, we can't keep taking this beating."

"What's your idea?"

"If Lao Qian investigates us, we'll investigate him too," Fan Debiao said. "Kaiyuan is only so big, who doesn't know who? I heard that Xiao Li, the accountant at Jinbihuihuang, has been having a falling out with Lao Qian lately."

Wu Derong's eyes lit up: "You mean..."

"I'll arrange for someone to make contact," Fan Debiao said. "If Lao Sun is willing to help, Lao Qian's tax evasion will be investigated and confirmed immediately."

"Will it work?"

"Let's give it a try," Fan Debiao said. "Old Sun worked at Jinbihuihuang for five years, and Lao Qian only paid him eight hundred yuan. If we offer him two thousand, do you think he'll be tempted?"

Wu Derong thought for a moment and said, "Okay, you go and do it. Just ask the finance department for the amount you need."

Fan Debiao found Gangzi and told him what had happened.

Gangzi patted his chest and said, "Brother Biao, leave this to me! I know Xiao Li; he used to live on Fourth Road too."

"Don't use force," Fan Debiao instructed. "Talk to him nicely. If he's willing, he's willing; if he's not, don't force him."

"clear."

The next day, Gangzi invited Xiao Li to dinner. After a meal and some drinks, Xiao Li told him everything.

"Old Qian's accounts are a complete mess! He evaded over 300,000 yuan in taxes last year alone! I keep all the account books, I'm just afraid he'll turn his back on me one day."

Gangzi asked, "Accountant Li, if I asked you to produce this evidence, would you dare?"

Xiao Li took a sip of his drink, his eyes red, and said, "What's there to be afraid of? That bastard Lao Qian, last month my mother was hospitalized, and I wanted to get an advance on two months' salary, but he wouldn't give it to me! He said if I left, I wouldn't get a single penny!"

"Okay then," Gangzi said. "Accountant Li, if you're willing to help, Victoria will give you two thousand and help you get your wages back."

Li gritted his teeth and said, "Let's do it!"

Three days later, the tax bureau received an anonymous tip-off letter, which included irrefutable evidence of lavish tax evasion.

Old Qian was taken away directly, and Jinbihuihuang was ordered to suspend operations for rectification.

This matter caused a huge uproar in Kaiyuan.

No one expected that such a magnificent and prestigious venue would collapse so suddenly.

On Victoria's side, the employees admired Fan Debiao immensely.

That evening, Wu Derong called Fan Debiao to his office, opened the beautifully packaged wine box, and found a bottle of gun-shaped liquor inside!

Upon seeing this, Fan Debiao immediately exclaimed, "Mr. Wu, this is gun liquor! You're holding a steel gun!"

Wu Derong laughed and said, "Let's have a celebratory drink today!"

Fan Debiao said, "Mr. Wu, even fake wine would cost over a thousand!"

"De Biao, why do you always give false examples?" He randomly called Awei and arranged a room for her.

"De Biao, come on, have a drink."

The two clinked glasses. Wu Derong said with emotion, "Debiao, I really didn't expect you to do such a wonderful job."

Fan Debiao smiled and said, "It's all thanks to General Manager Wu's excellent guidance."

"Don't give me that," Wu Derong said. "I know you basically handled all of this. You stabilized the situation during the poaching scandal; you turned the tables on Lao Qian when he investigated taxes. This combination of moves left Lao Qian with no chance to fight back."

Fan Debiao didn't say anything, but poured Wu Derong a glass of wine.

Wu Derong continued, "Debiao, I've made my decision. From today onwards, you will be the deputy general manager of Victoria. Your monthly salary is five thousand, plus a year-end bonus."

Fan Debiao's hand trembled, and a little wine spilled out.

"Mr. Wu, this... I am unworthy of such an honor..."

"If I say you can, you can." Wu Derong patted him on the shoulder. "Debiao, you're different now. You're smart, resourceful, and most importantly, loyal. I trust you with Victoria."

Fan Debiao stood up, raised his glass, and said, "Mr. Wu, this is a toast to you. Thank you for your trust."

"Dry!"

The two drank it all in one gulp.

Fan Debiao was still a little dizzy when he came out of the office.

Vice President.

Monthly salary of 5,000.

He went from bodyguard to vice president in just two months after being reborn, something he wouldn't have dared to dream of in his previous life.

Gangzi and the others were waiting downstairs. When they saw Fan Debiao come down, they all gathered around him.

"Brother Biao, I heard you got promoted to vice president?" Da Liu asked.

"Hmm." Fan Debiao nodded.

"Awesome, Brother Biao!" Gangzi gave a thumbs up. "In just a few months, he went from security captain to vice president. Even a rocket couldn't have done that fast!"

Fan Debiao laughed: "Stop flattering me. Come on, it's my treat, let's get something good to eat."

A group of people went to their usual barbecue restaurant. The table was piled high with meat skewers and beer.

Gangzi raised his glass: "Come on, let's celebrate Brother Biao's promotion!"

"Dry!"

Halfway through the drink, Fan Debiao asked Gangzi, "Have things been arranged with Xiao Li?"

"It's all arranged," Gangzi said. "He'll be working as an accountant in Victoria, earning two thousand a month. I also helped Lao Qian get back the wages he owed."

"That's good," Fan Debiao said. "A person should keep their word."

Big Liu leaned over and said, "Brother Biao, the magnificent Jinbihuihuang has collapsed. Shouldn't we celebrate?"

"What's there to celebrate?" Fan Debiao said. "Old Qian is gone, but there are others. Kaiyuan is such a big place, there are plenty of people eyeing the entertainment market. We can't let our guard down."

"Brother Biao is right," Gangzi said. "We have to be vigilant at all times."

After finishing his meal, Fan Debiao returned to the small house. It was already past ten o'clock at night, but the lights were still on inside.

Pushing open the door, I saw Ma Dashuai and Yu Fen watching TV, while Xiao Cui was fiddling with the computer at the table.

"De Biao's back?" Ma Dashuai stood up. "Have you eaten?"

"I've eaten," Fan Debiao said. "Xiao Cui, what are you doing?"

Xiao Cui looked up, her eyes sparkling: "Uncle, look, this is the table I made. My teacher said I'm proficient in using office software now, I can use Word and Excel."

Fan Debiao went over and took a look; the form was quite well-made.

"Wow, my niece is amazing! She's only been learning for a few days and she can already make spreadsheets!"

"Of course!" Xiao Cui said with a hint of pride. "The teacher said I'm talented and learn quickly. He said that after I finish my studies, I'll be able to find a good job."

Ma Dashuai interjected, "Debiao, you're the vice president now, you know a lot of people, why don't you find Xiaocui a good job?"

Fan Debiao looked at Xiao Cui, then at Ma Dashuai: "Finding a job requires real skills. Xiao Cui knows office software now, but that's just the beginning. What she needs to learn later are the real skills. Once she gets her accounting certificate, let her apply for jobs herself. We'll help her if we can, but we can't rely on connections for everything."

"Yes, yes, rely on yourself," Yu Fen said. "Xiao Cui, listen to your uncle, earn your living with your own abilities, then you'll stand tall."

Xiao Cui nodded: "Yes, I'll rely on myself."

Fan Debiao felt a warmth in his heart. This little girl has become sensible.

Lying in bed at night, Fan Debiao couldn't sleep. His mind was racing with the events of the past few months.

Reborn, he rose from security captain to vice president.

He helped Ma Xiaocui break off her engagement and helped Ma Dashuai pay off his debts.

They dealt with Niu Er and crushed Lao Qian.

Everything is moving in a positive direction.

But he knew that this was just the beginning.

The lottery results haven't been announced yet, and the biggest battle to turn things around hasn't even begun.

Stay calm and don't let your guard down.
