Door-to-door dragon son-in-law

Chapter 1703 Loyalty Education
No one expected that Ye Chen would change the ancestor worship ceremony once every 12 years to once a year.

You must know that although the ancestor worship ceremony is of great significance, it is also a waste of money and people.

Therefore, an older member of the collateral branch in the crowd said: "Ye Chen... the ancestor worship ceremony is held every 12 years, which is the rule set by the ancestors. If you want to change it to once a year, it is too frequent Right? I personally think that it may not be a good thing for us to disturb the peace of our ancestors so frequently! If the ancestors are displeased, then this is disrespectful to the ancestors!"

Ye Chen looked at him, and said in a cold voice: "It's because it used to be once every 12 years, so you guys surnamed Ye have long forgotten about your ancestors! Others said they were going to dig your ancestor's grave, you guys One by one, they escaped from Yanjing overnight! Is that how you respect your ancestors?!"

The old man's face turned red immediately, and he quickly shut his mouth.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Ye Chen questioned, "Why didn't you speak? Wasn't he quite able to speak just now?"

After all, Ye Chen pointed to the Ye family's ancestral grave behind him, and asked him coldly: "Come on, in front of the old ancestor, explain to the old ancestor carefully, how do you respect the old ancestor?"

The old man said in shame, "I... I was wrong..."

Ye Chen said coldly: "Don't tell me! Come out and tell your ancestors yourself!"

The old man could only walk out from the crowd, facing the graves of more than a hundred ancestors of the Ye family, he said shamelessly: "The ancestors of the Ye family are above, the unworthy descendant Ye Weiming is wrong! I hope the ancestors forgive me!"

Ye Chen snorted coldly, ignored the old man, and continued to face the more than 700 branch branches of the Ye family in front of him, and said sharply: "Don't think that you are collateral branches of the Ye family. It's just bullying you!"

After that, he pointed to Ye Changkong, Ye Changyun, Ye Feng, Ye Hao and others who were kneeling on one side, and said coldly: "Open your eyes and take a good look at those kneeling beside you! They are all Members of the Ye family! Here are my uncle, uncle, aunt, and cousins, they made a mistake, and they still want to kneel here for three days and three nights!"

As soon as these words came out, Ye Changkong and other members of the main Ye family lowered their heads in shame, while the more than 700 members of the collateral branch were all dumbfounded!

Only then did they realize that Ye Chen's iron blood was not only aimed at outsiders like them.

He is more ruthless to his own family than to them!

At this time, Ye Chen continued to speak surprisingly: "And I might as well tell you that most of them, from now on, will stay in Yeling Mountain to honor their ancestors for the next three years!"

"In the next three years, even if there is a knife in the sky, they will not be allowed to leave half a step!"

"Even if someone is seriously ill and needs to live in the ICU, I will build the ICU to Yeling Mountain!"

Hearing this, the collateral members of the Ye family started to panic. Just now they thought it was cruel for Ye Chen to let his family kneel here for three days and three nights, but he didn't expect there to be even more cruel!

At this time, Ye Chen looked at them coldly, and continued: "So listen to me all of you. From now on, if any of you dare to betray the Ye family, or cause the Ye family to suffer losses, then you have one Count it as one, and the end must be worse than them!"

Seeing this, the collateral members of the Ye family no one dared to raise any objections to the ancestor worship ceremony.

The reason why Ye Chen wants to hold the grand ancestor worship ceremony once a year is to continuously strengthen their loyalty to the Ye family through a faster frequency, and at the same time let them understand the master-slave relationship between the Ye family and them, so that they can feel loyal to the king in their hearts , and then strengthen the Ye family's control over them.

At this moment, a young man said, "I can understand that the ancestor worship ceremony is held once a year, but why do we have to come to Yanjing every three months to report on our work?"

Ye Chen asked him back: "You are taking Ye family's resources and earning money from Ye family. I ask you to report on your work every three months. Do you have any comments?"

The young man hurriedly said: "Our family has already emigrated overseas, and these years have gradually shifted the focus of our business. At present, our overseas business has nothing to do with the Ye family."

Ye Chen nodded and asked him, "What's your name?"

The young man replied, "My name is Ye Tao."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, let me ask you, what kind of business is your family running overseas now?"

Ye Tao hurriedly said: "We produce and sell Chinese-style furniture for the whole of Europe, mainly for Chinese customers, and our production place is Romania."

Marven Ye frowned and asked, "Why do you want to produce Chinese furniture in Romania?"

Ye Tao replied: "The main reason is that Romania's timber production is very high, and their labor costs are relatively cheap."

Ye Chen asked again: "Then how many workers do you have in Romania? What is the annual output value?"

Ye Tao thought for a while and said, "We have about 20 employees in Romania, with an annual output value of about 20 billion euros and a net profit of about [-]%."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "So, you have a net profit of [-] million euros a year just from this business."

"Yes." Ye Tao said: "A few years ago our production base was still in China, and I suggested that our family move the production base to Romania."

Ye Chen asked him: "The production base is located in Huaxia, why do you suggest moving to Romania?"

Ye Tao explained with some pride: "Originally we produced in China and sold in Europe. Although the logistics cost was much higher, because the domestic labor force is relatively cheap, the overall profit margin is even higher than it is now. I had a premonition that the European Union would continue to increase tariffs and other taxes on foreign products in the future. In that case, our products would lose all advantages in the European market, and then the profit margin would also drop sharply. Since last year, the EU has been increasing tariffs on imported furniture, and it has increased by at least 40% so far!"

Ye Chen nodded and said, "After you move your company to Romania, you will be able to avoid this kind of European tariff policy?"

"That's right!" Ye Tao explained: "When we moved our production base to Romania, we also re-registered a company in Romania, which is equivalent to turning our products into local products produced in Romania, and because Romania also joined For the sake of the European Union, the entire European market has given great preferential policies to Romanian products, so we have actually enjoyed this preferential policy.”

"With lower tax costs, our prices can be lowered, which allows us to have more sales, so the overall profit margin is also considerable. In contrast, other companies that have been producing Chinese-style furniture in China, Every company that sells to Europe has suffered heavy losses."

Ye Chen smiled and said, "It seems that you are quite good at management."

Ye Tao said confidently: "Of course, I finished my bachelor's degree at Yale University at the age of 20, and my MBA in two years. I have been involved in the management of family businesses since I was a child. I dare not say that I am a genius in business. But it’s definitely better than most entrepreneurs who talk on paper.”

Ye Chen nodded and smiled slightly, and said: "In this case, then you don't have to go back this time, stay in Huaxia to help me, and by the way, I will also check you, whether you really have two brushes!"
