Chapter 371 Olivia's Thoughts
After Sophia knew what Viscount Cliff meant, she became more worried about Olivia.

Olivia...does have a certain weakness. Is it really useful for Viscount Cliff to force her with such strong means?

She knocked on the door of Olivia's study room, only to see that Olivia was already processing work as usual.

She shouldn't have asked. Caring about the specific work of Viscount Cliff and Olivia is not within the scope of her work, but she will not be held accountable for her small overreach.

"What are you busy with?" Sophia asked, approaching the desk, put down a new cup of black tea, and casually glanced at Olivia's desktop.

A blank sheet of paper full of people's names, and there are notes behind the names, such as: unavailable, only obeying mother's order, other arrangements... and so on.

Olivia thanked Sophia, took a sip of black tea and said, "I'm looking for the manager of the glasses factory."

Sophia also knew about the opening of the glasses factory. She said strangely: "Isn't the factory already in operation? Why do you need to hire a manager?"

Making glasses does bring huge profits. A pair of metal or wood frames, inlaid with two crystal-polished lenses, can make people's blurred vision clear, and add a little change to the appearance. Those who got the glasses gave unanimous praise, and the money was also very generous and refreshing.

The cost of glasses is mainly concentrated on the white crystal used to make lenses, but white crystal is not a rare item, and the jewelry used by nobles thinks it is cheap.

It can be said that it is low cost and high return.

Olivia said slowly: "Mr. Durant is only willing to work for three months, so I have to find a suitable manager to take over the factory within three months."

"Ridiculous," Sophia couldn't help scolding, frowning, "How could you allow such a thing."

It is obviously irresponsible for such a person to give up the pick after three months. Sophia couldn't understand why Olivia would agree to do so.

Olivia explained: "Mr. Durant is someone Nannuo relies on, and being the manager of the factory is too inferior for him."

Nan Nuo doesn't have much work now, so he even took Durant to relax. With Durant's ability, it is very easy to make a good start for the factory. Everything is difficult at the beginning, and all the rules are set at the beginning , There will be a general process in the future, but Durant cannot be confined to this small factory.

Durant has an unruly temperament, even Nannuo can't completely suppress him.

"Then why did you let him be the manager of the factory in the first place?" Sophia was puzzled, "Is there no one available in Cliff City?"

Olivia was silent for a while, and then smiled wryly: "It's not that no one is available in Cliff City, it's that I am no one is available."

Of course, Sophia disagreed with this sentence: "How come, all members of Cliff's family are willing to serve you."

The members of Cliff's family...Olivia chewed on this word repeatedly, and asked bitterly: "If my surname is not Cliff, then can I order them to move?"

Why assume this question?Sophia said without hesitation: "This kind of thing is impossible. Since you were born with the surname Cliff, they should be loyal to you."

"But look," Olivia picked up the piece of paper on the table and showed it to Sophia, "Among the family members of Cliff's family, everyone I selected told me, If you want them to be the managers of the factory, you have to take out the transfer order personally issued by Viscount Cliff."

There is nothing wrong with this requirement, it can even be said to be a matter of course, but the transfer of positions is not limited to orders from superiors to subordinates, and it is not impossible for subordinates to apply to superiors, but no one is willing to apply.

It seems that he is respectful to Olivia, but in fact he does not obey Olivia's orders.

Logically speaking, this should not be the case. In the final analysis, Olivia is firmly established. Viscount Cliff's heirs are mostly people who are willing to flatter and flatter her. If this happens, there must be someone more powerful than Olivia. Authoritative people have greeted in advance.

This person, besides Viscount Cliff, would be no one else.

Now Olivia can be said to be isolated and helpless.

This is all the handwriting of Viscount Cliff.

Viscount Cliff was not unaware of Olivia's recent awkward mood and ignored it, but she turned to follow the trend and directly turned this anger into a dilemma to hone Olivia.

Although the method is amazing, it also makes people feel cold.

"If there is no transfer order, then just apply for a transfer order." Sophia was not in contact with foreign affairs, and she didn't realize that this situation was wrong.

Olivia shook her head, she walked to the window, took off her glasses, looked into the distance, and relaxed her eyes.

"Nannuo has his own cronies. Even if he is no longer the heir, Mr. Durant will still be by his side. If my surname is not Cliff, will someone follow me like Mr. Durant?"

Olivia spoke, as if she was asking Sofia, but also herself.

Before Sophia could answer, Olivia had already concluded: "No one, even the researchers in the manor who have had the most contact with me, they will not give up their mother and choose me, because Their research is funded entirely by their mothers."

Sophia had a headache: "Why should I choose between you and Your Excellency the Viscount, you two are one body."

But don't they just make a choice now?Olivia didn't say this sentence, because Sophia couldn't understand it.

"Let's not talk about this," Olivia did not continue on this topic, she thought for a while, "Go ask someone to find me all the merchant information in Cliff City."

Sophia frowned and asked, "Businessman? Why would you want their information?"

"Since the members of Cliff's family are unwilling to be the manager of the factory, of course I have to find someone else." And this "other" should preferably be someone who cannot be controlled by Viscount Cliff.

Sophia was not very willing: "But Your Excellency the Viscount said: Businessmen can cooperate, but they cannot be reused. The manager of the factory...isn't it..."

Viscount Cliff really doesn't like the style of businessmen, especially big businessmen. In her eyes, businessmen are no different from gamblers. If you win a gamble, you will get rich overnight, and if you lose the gamble, you will lose your fortune. She doesn't like this kind of Unstable trait, and therefore not too fond of merchants.

But she also has to admit that the existence of merchants is necessary, at least they provide the circulation of goods and the exchange of news.

Therefore, Viscount Cliff's attitude towards businessmen has always been that he only cooperates and does not make friends. Originally, Olivia also upholds this attitude, but now she has no one to use, and she can only take the lead.
