0274 Lazy, arrogant
Mark is interested in most businesses, and he helps the mayor manage the mayor's assets, which are not illegal.
In the Bailer Federation, it is not illegal for a politician to have his own business, and many businessmen suddenly feel a weight on their shoulders in the process of doing business, or have some good ideas to help more people make a fortune, they will change from businessmen to politicians.
They don't have to sell all their property just because they become politicians, and they don't have to engage in any business because they become politicians.
In the Bylor Federation, there is no such standard, and the only thing that requires the attention of these people who change their status is that they cannot use the power in their hands to use it for personal gain, nothing more.
The mayor gave his assets to Mark to manage, mainly to avoid suspicion, just as people can actually defecate here without saying on the side of the road that they can't defecate here.
It's not illegal to do that, but it can always feel a little ......
It is much easier for Mark to manage on his behalf, at least in many cases the mayor can tell the people that they are on the same side, and can even reveal the balance of the deposit in his hidden account to show his noble qualities.
In addition to a part of the commission in the process of managing these assets, Mark will also operate his own money, and Mark has indeed made a lot of money over the years, after all, with such a mayor uncle, it is very difficult to fail to invest in Sabin.
After Lynch returned from Boupayne, Mark approached him and talked about the recent investment, which he felt was a good investment, and of course he used his own money.
He scraped together some money and put it in, Hart was a very sensible person, and he gave Mark a fairly low price, as long as 250,000 yuan to invest in a house.
After six years, the house can be resold to Hart for 50,000 yuan a piece, doubling in six years, and this rate of profitability has made Mark sink into it, and he plans to let Lynch invest with him.
It's not that he's accepted any benefits from Hart, it's just that he just wants to share his successful investment experience, which is common in some social interactions.
That's how some of the inside information comes out - you say you know, I say I know, and everybody knows!
Lynch rejects him and offers to have a better project in his hands, which brings Mark to the spirit.
"What are you talking about?", but soon he hesitated a little, "I'm a little tight right now, you know, I just gave Mr. Hart more than 200,000 yuan in cash, I may not be able to scrape together too much money for a while!"
Lynch waved his hand, "Money is not an issue, you can listen to this project of mine first, and then think about money......"
After Mark nodded in agreement, Lynch talked about his plan, which didn't actually involve commercial fraud or anything like that, but a really good project.
"You know, in a few days the bank will start auctioning off some of the assets of the Ristoan Group to compensate those who have been injured in the course of their work and have lost their ability to work and live!"
Mark nodded again, he knew it, and he was involved, he had invested 100,000 yuan in a 15 percent stake in Lynch's new charitable private equity fund, which would win the subsequent tender, and he knew it.
Lynch paused for about three seconds, about four seconds, and continued, "There are many families in Sabin City that are facing great trouble, and as a Sebin entrepreneur with a sense of social responsibility and justice, I have decided to take my responsibility. ”
"I place orders for families who are in dire need of work, I rent them sewing machines, and I even subsidize part of the material money. ”
"They only need to produce the goods I need according to my requirements and get the pay they deserve from me, and much more than they would have worked in the factory!"
Mark wasn't interested in the first two sentences at all, he didn't care about any sense of social responsibility, what sense of justice, he only had food, drink, fun and money in his head, and nothing else could distract him except these things.
From the perspective of a loser, this is also the most unsuccessful place for Mark, because he has not experienced the struggle, but he has obtained the result, he does not need a long and arduous effort to taste the sweet wine, the process is not exciting, and the result will naturally become flat.
Well, the above sentence is just a relatively decent way to interpret envy, jealousy and hatred, which is a relatively mild expression.
What Mark was really interested in was the latter sentence, "Much more money?", and his voice was slightly raised. "How much is that?"
The corners of Lynch's mouth √ slightly, "How much effort you put in, how much money you can get, do you understand what I mean?"
Mark's expression began to get serious, he straightened his lazy sitting posture, took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, lit it, "Tell me more!"
"At present, the factories of the federation are still paid by the hour, and the workers are protected by various laws, and they can even be lazy while working, but still get the same money as everyone else. ”
"It doesn't make sense for us, because they don't pay for their hard work and get what they don't deserve. ”
"But now I have a new idea, which is called 'piece work', where these small family-based workshops take money from me based on their actual output, and the advantage of this is that if someone is lazy, then they don't get anything. ”
"But you know, Mark, I'm a man with a lot to do, I don't have that much time to take care of the details, I need some partners. ”
"I'll give you a relatively good price, and then you can leave yourself with plenty of profit margins and give those orders to those who need to work. ”
"You've helped your uncle to solve the problem of some people who don't have jobs, who don't have to go to the city hall all day to demonstrate when they have a job, and their families have been relieved of huge financial pressure, and people will thank you for your kindness and generosity. ”
"Everybody will say you're good, and you're making money, you know what I mean?"
Mark frowned and thought for a moment, then nodded a little slowly, "You mean you contract this job to me, and then I'm subcontracting to someone else, and I get some benefits from it?"
Lynch nodded, that's what he meant, but soon Mark shook his head, "I'm sorry, I'm not very interested in this project, I'm disappointed you!"
Not too surprised by Mark's rejection of Lynch, Mark is a typical kind of rich man who does not rely on himself to obtain wealth, he does not want to do too much practical work, and wants to enjoy the privileges that come with money, power and status, and the common household waste of the powerful.
As a friend, Lynch certainly wouldn't say that about him, it's just a way to put it there.
"Since you're not interested, forget it, someone will be interested!", he smiled, but he knew that Mark would eventually come to him.
If the project he invested in Hart only used his own money, once Hart really ran away, it would also mean that he lost hundreds of thousands of funds, and if he wanted to fill this loophole, he had to change his current picky eater and eat everything, otherwise he would not be able to recover his losses in a short period of time.
If his investment also used the mayor's money, then he would have to come to Lynch, which is obviously not a business that the mayor has given an account of.
As the mayor of the city, as the head of the city, should and must understand that this is not the place for him to reach out.
Well done, people will not be much grateful to him, because he is lying on the body of the poor to suck blood, the poor are already so poor, and the mayor will not let them go, which will make the mayor's image very bad.
If he doesn't do it well, people won't let him go, and when the time comes, criticism from all levels of society will make him anxious, and he will become a name for himself in the history of York - notoriety.
After skimming over the matter, Lynch and Mark talked about some of the next steps they would need to work with.
On the third day of the meeting, the bank was commissioned by the town hall to hold a closed-door auction of some of the assets of the Ristoan Group in a conference hall of the Sabin Hotel, among which Lynch was among them.
There were quite a few people sitting in the whole hall, and Lynch thought that Joe Griman would be a little more low-key and not show any obvious connection with him, but to his surprise, Joe Gleeman sat next to him as soon as he came up and chatted with him.
"Is this good?", Lynch gave him a cigarette and took the opportunity to light the fire and leaned over to his side and whispered, meaning that there were quite a few bank staff and some people attending the auction.
As the organizer of this auction, will Joe Greman's current behavior cause some people to make unnecessary associations.
Unexpectedly, Joe Griman changed his low-key style in the past, he smiled contemptuously, and his gaze slowly swept over the faces of some people.
All those who were within his sight bowed their heads humbly.
"It's okay, they know what to do!", Joe Gleeman, who had been suppressed for half a year, regained his power, and now he is stronger than before.
Hundreds of bank employees were fired for a variety of reasons, and at the quarterly meeting of Sabin Bank, these fired people were characterized as unfit to continue working for the bank, and the risk department also gave them some orange indicators to indicate that they could cause losses to the bank if they continued to work, and then these people were either transferred to remote locations or simply dismissed.
But everyone knows what these people are doing to get rid of their jobs, which also makes Joe Griman flourish in the system of the Golden Bank in Sebin!
Lynch looked at him, stared at the arrogance on his face, and reminded him slightly, "Your opponent and yours made the same mistake now, I don't want you to be next!"
To be honest, this sentence is very polite, and it can even be said that Lynch gave the proud Joe Gleeman a slap in the face, slapping his cheeks and hurting.
But it was precisely these words that made Joe Gleeman's expression change a little, and he became serious, then nodded slightly, got up and walked back to his seat.
He asked the bank staff next to him, "Has anyone seen my lighter?"
