Andre was surprised, when he saw that the person sitting in the main seat he had prepared was not Satria but the young man who had joined Satria.
'' Tu sir Satria, I this?'' Andre stuttered.
'' Mr Andre, introduce! This Alan Mas, is the young master of the company owner Kusuma Wijaya group, where you and I work.''
'' What? is that young master?''
Andre was stunned to hear what Satria had just said. He hurriedly stood up and was about to kneel before Alan. But before Andre got out of his place, Alan had already told him.
'' Mr Andre, stop! Stay seated and please listen and answer some questions from me.''
Alan commandingly ordered to Andre. Andre could only obediently follow what was said by Alan without daring to refute him.
'' Please forgive me young master. I really don't know if you are our young master. I am ready to be punished for my disrespect for the young master, said Andre resignedly.
'' Mr. Andre, I'm not here for that kind of thing. I just want to ask you a few things or from Uncle Satria. For that, please answer honestly. If it is proven that you have something to do with this problem, then let grandfather will give you a decision.
'' Good young master.'' replied Satria and Andre simultaneously.
'' Looky!. Uncle Satria, and especially you sir Andre.'' Alan fixed his sitting position then stared at them alternately.
'' Do you know! Lately, especially in the last two years, the yield of our tea plantations in this area continues to decline?'' alan asked seriously.
'' Sorry young master. For the affairs in this region, I have fully submitted to Mr. Andre as the responsibility of this area. So I know less so. In addition to many things that I have to take care of throughout this province, I have also not received a report from Mr. Andre about it, sorry young master.'' Reply Satria.
'' Yes, young master. In the last two years, tea production from our plantations has decreased. Because, in addition to the factors of bad weather lately, several times the workers also often strike work. So that the impact will also affect our production, Andre replied confidently.
'' Is Mr Andre sure? is that the cause of all this? ask Alan to investigate.
'' According to the reports from the production department and also the officers in the field, it is like that young master.'' Andre replied again.
'' Did Mr Andre see the situation on the pitch for himself?''
Alan was increasingly looking for Andre with many questions. Because he saw that the point of the problem was with Andre, who was not careful with the responsibility given to him.
'' Sorry young master. It's my fault, I trust them too much. Because they never lied to me all this time.''
Andre begins to catch a suspicion of what he told Alan. Although everything he said was true, he also really did not know the true reality on the ground.
'' Sorry young master. Is there anything I don't know about this.'' continued Andre.
Alan took a deep breath. Actually he began to feel annoyed with the unprofessionality of Andre's performance. However, he was in no hurry to get carried away by emotions.
'' Mr Andre, do you know people from the production department as well as field officers?'' without answering Andre's question, Alan again continued to ask Andre.
'' Yes, young master. I know very well the people who always give me that report.''
'' Are they related to the lurah where our plantation location is?'' ask Alan again.
'' Emm, it seems like it is so young master.'' he replied after thinking for a while.
'' Then where have you been for the past two years?''
'' Sorry young master. During these two years, I was sick and could not see the conditions on the pitch. Because, I had to go back and forth to Jakarta. Sometimes I have to go abroad for treatment. For this reason, I entrust this matter to them. I'm sorry young master.''
'' Sorry young master, may I find out more details about the problems in this region. If later brother Andre can not handle it, let me immediately intervene said Satria who had just quietly listened to their conversation.
'' This is Satria's uncle, Mr. Andre..! I got a report from someone who can prove the truth. That, lurah and some of his minions have collaborated with some of our plantation officers. They've been working together to pull off a massive theft of our plantations over the past two years. That's why I purposely wanted to see you. Why in that long enough period of time, can you not know about this matter? isn't this really surprising!'' alan said with a little fury.
In fact, what makes Alan somewhat emotional, is not their ignorance. But he remembered with the lunge and his son.
'' Sorry young master. It's my fault, it's my fault! Please young master of my law. But I beg you, please do not take me out of this job, I really need this job in order to pay off my medical expenses during yesterday's illness young master.'' Andre immediately calmed down in front of Alan.
'' Young master, I am also at fault in this matter, I am less thorough in observing the situation. Until this problem can go unnoticed until that long. I am ready to be punished by the young master said Satria who also joined Andre.
Although Satria does not yet know the nature and character of his young master, he also prefers to be punished by Alan rather than by Arya Wijaya. Satria knew very well how his great master was if he was already angry. Especially if you see the attitude and look of Alan who is more humble, of course he still has hope to get a little leniency for him.
'' Go back to your seats, and listen carefully.'' said Alan.
Alan saw the two people who were older than him were gathered in front of him, he felt uncomfortable. While saying so he stood up and walked over to see the view of Ciremai mountain from the glass window in the room.
Satria and Andrea immediately returned to their seats. While looking down, they were preparing to receive punishment from Alan.
'' Uncle, Mr. Andre. Do you feel that this is all your negligence?'' alan asked as he walked back to his chair.
'' Yes young master.'' replied them simultaneously.
'' Ready young master.'' answered the two.
'' Alright then. Since you said it yourself, then I will.''
tok.tok.tok.tok heard the sound of the door being knocked.
'' Enter.!'' said Alan.
Satria and Andrea who were in a tense mood, seemed to want to cry at the sound of knocking on the door. In their hearts they said:
'' Who else is this? just interrupt. Do not know if the young old man is angry, want to look for death.''
When the door opened, some servants came with some food and drinks. Satria and Andre simultaneously turned their heads while glaring, making them stiffly silent for a moment. But Alan immediately gave them a code to enter. Only then did they enter and serve the food and drink on the dining table available in the room
'' I'm. this is what I've been waiting for. I haven't eaten in the morning. Come uncle, sir Andre we eat first.it is not tired what talk mulu.'' seloroh Alan while rising from his chair to the dining table.
Satria and Andre, his heart is getting worse. It felt like they wanted to cry as well as laugh, looking at Alan's behavior that seemed to suddenly forget about the problem they were talking about.
'' Uncle, Mr Andre! About it later we continue again after eating only.it is not good you delay eating, ntar can get mah.''' said Alan at will.
Actually Alan could have solved the problem first and then ate. However, because seeing the faces of the two were so pale in fear, he finally thought it better to eat first because he was worried about eliminating their appetite.
'' The children of Mr. Andre, have they also ordered food. If not, send them a message. Kasian you know, they also need to eat, do not let not be given food Mr. Andre.''
Andre just according to what Alan told him. He then walked to the door and ordered his guards to order food at the restaurant.
'' Don't worry, all the bills let me pay.'' said Alan later.
After ordering his guards to eat at the hotel restaurant, Andre then sat down with Satria and Alan for breakfast together. Although at first Satria and Andre felt a bit awkward due to the problem, but because of Alan's attitude that was so relaxed, they were finally able to enjoy the breakfast leisurely as well.
After they finished eating, they returned to the room where they had a meeting. While enjoying a cigarette of his favorite, Alan then said:
'' Uncle Satria, Mr. Andre, since you said you were ready to accept the consequences of your negligence, I will give you the opportunity to make up for your negligence.''
'' Ready young master, as long as the young master is willing to forgive and give me the opportunity to make amends for my mistakes, I will do whatever the young master wants.
'' I am also a young master, please give the young master's orders to me. I will directly carry out the orders of the young master.'' Satria said excitedly.
'' All right.., for Mr. Andre. I'm asking you to immediately find evidence of the crimes of Lurah and his minions and those of us involved in the case, prosecute them legally, trap them with the most severe articles and also do not let them appeal. I don't want people like that to thrive in this country.''
'' Well young master, I will exert all my abilities to drag those traitors into prison, and also take over all the assets that do not belong to them that they have taken from others.'' said Andre full of enthusiasm and determination.
'' Good good.., but remember, it must be legally applicable in this country, do not use illegal means.''
'' Ready young master.''
'' And for you, uncle Satria. In addition to helping what will be done by Mr. Andre to be faster, so, I asked my uncle to also release some land that I will later make the villa and hotel area and some shopping center areas. Is uncle willing?''
'' Ready young master, as soon as possible I will carry out.'' said Satria.
'' But remember uncle, it must be done voluntarily. Not by force, let alone by threat.''
'' Good young master, I will do as the young master commands.''
Upon hearing what their young master requested, Satria and Andrea were relieved. They did not think, it turned out that this young master was so wise in dealing with a problem. Unlike what they often hear, usually the young masters like to act arrogant, and like to play hands if they have met things that are not in accordance with what they want.
'' One more thing, do not call me young master when in a public place.'' said Alan staring at the two.
'' Good young master.'' replied the two together.
'' I think our meeting this time is quite so, I look forward to the next news. If later there is something very important to discuss, we will meet again here, said Alan while standing up to get out of the place.
Satria and Andre immediately followed behind him. Some of Andrea's bodyguards who had finished eating, they had also re-assembled in front of the room.
One of Andre's bodyguards who was with Alan, wanted to talk to Alan. But after seeing Andre and Satria appear behind him, he immediately paused his intention.
Alan, Satria and Andre ride in the same elevator, while Andre's bodyguards take another. Upon arriving at the ground floor, Alan headed to the reception desk to pay their bills.
The cashier who saw Alan's appearance and also saw the bills he had to pay, almost made a bad comment. But he immediately shut his mouth as he looked behind Alan Ada Andre with him.
After knowing the total amount of his bill, Alan immediately took out his premium card. He deliberately did not issue his grandfather's gift card because he did not want to make a fuss and also for the bill the money on the premium card was more than enough.
At first Andre and Satria forced them to pay the hotel bill, but Alan told them this time he was the one who bought it. But next time they have to treat it. Eventually they both agree to Alan's request.
