Matthew was completely speechless after being told off by James.
Despite that, what needed to be done must still be done.
At noon, Julian went to Jojo to report on his work and told Jojo that the company had just received a new order. If they could get the work done, they could earn at least 30 million from it.
However, the order needed some extremely rare herbs which would be very difficult to purchase.
Therefore, he had come to Jojo to see whether they should accept this order.
Then again, Jojo knew nothing about the operations of the company. Without even giving it a second thought, she immediately decided to accept the order.
With that, Julian brought out the contract and passed it to her for her signature.
Without hesitation, she signed her name, inordinately pleased with herself.
Even though she had yet been promoted, the previous CEO, Julian, had been coming to her for permission before doing anything and this had proven her status in the company.
Once again, she boasted her success in her class’ group chat, attracting a lot of jealousy from her former classmates.
All of them were recent college graduates and most of them had not found a job yet.
On the other hand, Jojo had become a CEO straight away and could sign a contract worth millions with no fuss. Needless to say, her classmates flattered her from top to bottom.
Those who had not been in touch with Jojo immediately added her on Whatsapp, kissing up to her, begging her to recommend them some jobs. With her ego exceptionally satisfied, Jojo gladly gave them her word that she would help.
Just when she was trying to figure out some jobs for her classmates, the secretary came in, informing her that someone was here to meet her.
Immediately, she allowed the visitor to come in. After all, she had just become the CEO recently, so she wanted to have some fun with her current position.
The person who entered was a man in his 20s or 30s who seemed very gentle. He had gold-plated metal glasses on and had stunning features besides.
With just one glance, Jojo's heart skipped a few beats.
Yesterday, her Prince Charming had utterly disappointed her and now she was no longer in a relationship.
But suddenly, a good-looking man turned up and he was way more attractive than her Prince Charming. It was only natural that she was captivated by him.
With a grin, the man said, “Nice to meet you, Miss Freeman. Allow me to introduce myself. I’m Harold Johnson and I’m working in the medicinal herb industry. I heard that your company is urgently in need of a batch of fritillaria? I happen to have a batch of those herbs on hand so I would like to know whether your company is interested in partnering up with me.”
Immediately intrigued, Jojo thought about the order Julian had told her about earlier at noon. What they needed right now was the fritillaria Harold was offering! She was overjoyed that what she needed had just fallen into her lap.
Besides, the stunning appearance of Harold was a plus point that she fell in love with at first sight.
“Of course we would like to cooperate with you! At what price point do you wish to sell your fritillaria?” Jojo asked hastily.
“It is an honor to work with your company. In terms of the price, it can be negotiated. Since I’m dealing directly with you, I’ll cut the price down to at least 10% lower than the market price!” Harold responded at an instant.
Silently doing the math, Jojo thought, If it’s going to be 10% lower than the market price, wouldn’t the company then be making two more million in profit? Oh my, this business is clearly beneficial! It’s just my second day on the post and I’ll be making so much money already. Seems like running a company isn’t that tough at all. So what if Sasha Cunningham is now the one managing Cunningham Pharmaceuticals anyway? With my capability, I’m definitely way better than her. I should be the one running the company!
Suppressing her excitement, Jojo dived right into negotiations with Harold.
After the discussion, Harold even invited Jojo for dinner.
Of course, Jojo was up for it. Getting the chance to have dinner with a handsome man like him could make her smile in her sleep.
With Harold’s warm reception during the dinner, Jojo signed the contract that very night.
