Chapter 307: Increasing Dividends
Smith did a good job, and his business failed because he couldn't do anything in China.
It seems that this time he learned his lesson, and the hiring secretary was not exactly to his liking, knowing to recruit someone with a relationship to come in.
"Miss Chloe, good work."
Chu Lingyun smiled and said, while Chloe was very serious: "This is what I should do, but according to the agreement between me and Smith, after I arrive in Shanghai, you will pay me the first year's salary in advance."
Chloe knows who the real boss is, and on the face Smith is the general manager, but in fact it is this young Chinese who really calls the shots.
In fact, she did not agree to Smith's employment at first, for the simple reason that her salary would not be paid in full until she arrived in China.
Smith relied on his incorruptible tongue to convince Chloe, and finally coaxed her into the boat.
"Sir Chu, his salary is calculated on an annual basis, two thousand dollars a year, and it is only the first year, and he will have to increase his salary after doing a good job, Smith said, this money is paid by the company, let you pay her first."
Liu Chengzhu whispered, two thousand dollars was too high, he was thinking about the price, after all, Liu Chengzhu was a businessman, and he knew that Chloe's relationship was very useful to them.
It's a pity that Chu Yuan didn't agree, so Smith simply cut it first and then signed a contract with someone else.
In the United States, where Smith is the nominal boss, they have nothing to do.
Chu Yuan didn't give Smith money, so Liu Chengzhu could only help Smith coax her and bring her to China first to see Chu Lingyun's arrangement.
"No problem, Miss Chloe, I'll pay you your salary later."
Chu Lingyun said with a smile, two thousand dollars is indeed high, and he hired those six foreign men with a high salary, with a salary of only thirty dollars a month, and the six of them together are no match for Chloe alone.
But as long as Chloe can help them unblock the relationship in the public concession, the money is still worth it, even cheap.
"That's good."
Chloe breathed a sigh of relief, and after she was coaxed aboard, it occurred to her that if she didn't give her money in China, she wouldn't have the money to buy a ticket back.
After worrying all the way, after arriving in China, there was finally no situation that she was most worried about.
"Let's pick up the car, it's ready."
Seeing that the people on the boat were almost gone, Chu Lingyun instructed Liu Chengzhu that he brought five trucks over to pull the goods this time.
Liu Chengzhu went to pick up the goods, and Chloe looked at Chu Lingyun curiously.
She knew the size of Smith's company, which was mainly engaged in sulfonamide drugs, and the volume was very large, and at least half a million dollars of goods were purchased every year, and the value of the first shipment was as high as 200,000 dollars.
Doing hundreds of thousands of dollars of business every year, such a business scale is rare in the United States, and it must be a business done by big people and consortia.
She has a certain understanding of China, knowing that although the country is very poor, there are also rich people in the country, and this is a large country with a large population and great market potential.
It's just that she didn't expect that the person who did such a big business would be so young and look several years younger than her.
Five trucks left with a full load and were sent all the way to the warehouse.
Chu Lingyun left ten of his subordinates to guard here, this was his own private matter, and Chu Lingyun would give a reward of three yuan per person per day to prevent them from working in vain.
Of the six hired foreigners, two were left on the periphery of the warehouse, and the rest were brought with them as a façade, followed by four tall foreign devils who could bluff a lot of people.
"Two thousand dollars, Miss Chloe, please."
Back at the hotel, Chu Lingyun immediately took out two thousand dollars in cash for Chloe, this time he came to Shanghai to do a lot of things, and he brought a lot of money.
Chloe took the money, counted it carefully, and there was no problem, and finally put her mind at ease.
"Chu, although you are the real boss, it is Smith who hires me, so I only obey Smith's arrangement."
After collecting the money, Chloe said to Chu Lingyun very seriously, Liu Chengzhu was stunned, knowing that Chief Chu was the real boss, and even said that he only listened to Smith's words, is this woman stupid?
"No problem, take the liberty of asking, Miss Chloe, what is your uncle doing in the Ministry of Works?"
Chloe is good-looking, the big place is big, and the thin place is thin, but Chu Lingyun has no interest in her appearance, he is most concerned about Chloe's uncle.
In the future, his sulfonamide business will be done in the concession, and the Ministry of Industry and Bureau must establish a good relationship.
Even if there is no Chloe, Chu Lingyun will give Smith a sum of money and let him buy the *** of the Ministry of Industry to facilitate their future business.
Now sulfonamides are still inconspicuous, and once the war starts, sulfonamides can be said to be comparable to gold.
At that time, there will be a lot of people who are red-eyed, and it will be difficult to keep this business if they don't have enough strength and connections.
"It's not my uncle, it's my cousin."
After thinking about it for a while, Chloe found the adjective, it was not her own uncle who worked in the Ministry of Industry, but just her cousin, and the relationship was another layer away.
"My cousin is Thomas Lane, and I only know that he was the deputy commissioner of the police department of the Ministry of Works two years ago."
Chloe replied seriously, Chu Lingyun was stunned, Chloe's uncle turned out to be Ryan, an important person he had paid attention to in the Public Concession before.
Now Ryan is not the deputy commissioner, but the director of the police department, the real big man of the Ministry of Works.
Chloe actually had such a relationship, the two thousand dollars were too well spent, and Smith made another contribution.
"Understood, now that you are in China, you have time to visit this cousin, and the company can help you buy gifts."
Chu Lingyun nodded slightly, and Chloe finally smiled when she heard that the company was helping to prepare gifts: "Thank you, boss, I will go."
"It's been a hard journey, Miss Chloe, let's rest early."
Chu Lingyun asked Chloe to return to his room, and after she and Liu Chengzhu came back, Chu Lingyun helped them open the room.
"Chief Chu..."
"Call me boss from now on."
Chu Lingyun interrupted Liu Chengzhu's words, Liu Chengzhu was stunned, and his heartbeat instantly accelerated: "Yes, boss."
Don't look at it, he just changed his name, but Liu Chengzhu understands that his status in Chief Chu's heart is different, or rather, at this time, he is Chief Chu's real own person, not Wang Sheng's uncle.
"Boss, there are two kinds of sulfonamides we brought this time, one is injection, six sticks in a box, and the other is a medicinal powder, which can be taken orally or externally, but the effect of injection is the best, and this time seventy percent of sulfonamides are injections."
"According to the pharmaceutical company, sulfonamides should not be used more, the first time the effect is the best, and it is likely to be ineffective if the drug is used more times, if the drug does not work, the pharmaceutical company will not bear any responsibility."
Liu Chengzhu quickly reported, according to what Liu Chengzhu said, sulfonamides cannot be used more, that is, there is drug resistance, which is easy to understand, Chu Lingyun is the soul of later generations, and understands what is going on with drug resistance.
"It doesn't matter, sulfonamides are life-saving drugs, whether they have an effect or not, there will be no shortage of people who want them."
"Boss, according to the agreement between us and the pharmaceutical company, we set the domestic pricing by ourselves, how much do you think it is appropriate to sell?" Liu Chengzhu asked again.
He was hurriedly called by Chu Lingyun to the United States, and he didn't know the price of sulfonamides in China, Smith knew the price of sulfonamides in the United States, but he also didn't know the price of drugs in China.
"There's no rush for this, we'll ship it when Smith comes."
Chu Lingyun shook his head, only half of the goods came this time, and half of them would float on the sea.
With so many goods, Chu Lingyun will not do retail by himself, so the payment will be too slow, he will find a group of partners, let them be his own agents, give them the goods, and let them sell.
He can't come forward to find an agent, and Smith has to do it.
It's best to get through Lane's relationship first, and then it will be much more convenient if you can ask Lane, the commissioner of police in the public concession, to help stand on the platform.
"Boss, Smith spends too much."
After finishing the business, Liu Chengzhu couldn't help but sue Smith, when he was in the United States, Smith spent a lot of money, which made him and Chu Yuan the most unaccustomed to it.
"It's okay, as long as he can help me earn money, I'm not afraid of him spending money." Chu Lingyun shook his head with a smile.
Smith's urine sex he knows very well, people who are about to live on the street still want to save face, such a person has a little money in his pocket, and he will definitely think about how to maintain his face.
"Isn't it too much for you to give him a red?"
After hesitating, Liu Chengzhu still asked.
Such a big business, a lot of dividends, Liu Chengzhu came back to calculate the account, if the business goes well, even if only half of the money is earned, Smith's annual dividend is at least 50,000 US dollars.
With so much money, give it to this loser, and sooner or later he will lose it.
"You're not too wrong, and when he comes back, I'll increase his dividends."
Chu Lingyun shook his head again, and Liu Chengzhu's eyes widened, Smith didn't invest a penny, so many dividends every year, the boss didn't say much, and he had to add it?
"Don't worry, he's worth the price, just wait for him to come back."
Chu Lingyun said softly, since the agency that Smith talked about has performance requirements, the dividends given to him can also be according to the performance requirements.
How to motivate him, wait for him to come, there is no rush now.
"Yes, boss."
Liu Chengzhu didn't understand it, but he didn't dare to object to Chu Lingyun's words, he just felt that he was cheaper than Smith.
In Nanjing, Yu Liang is like a frightened bird, hiding in a dilapidated house where no one is around.
He finished his seven-day study at Tongbun Academy, where he met many young Japanese scholars and a small number of Chinese students who supported Japan as much as he did.
He had a very fulfilling week, and when he came back, he wanted to report to his teacher, Nobuya Matsubara, but when he came to school, he immediately learned that the teacher had not come to class for two days.
He went to the teacher's house and saw that the door was sealed.
When he left, he found that he was being followed, and if he hadn't run fast, he would have been arrested, and then he tried to find a way to ask the students of other teachers about the situation, and as a result, many of his classmates who had a good relationship with him also disappeared.
This made him feel bad, especially when he found that there was someone watching him near his home, so he didn't even dare to go home, so he could only hide in this place where no one was.
After carefully eating the steamed buns in his hand, Yu Liang's face was full of worry, he didn't know what was going on, let alone what he should do.
He didn't bring much money with him when he went to Shanghai, and he didn't enter his home after he came back, and now that he has no money on him, it is very difficult for him to escape from Nanjing City.
And his classmates have all had accidents, he doesn't dare to go to these classmates, he is not a local, he has no relatives here, only a small house he rents, and there are people watching the house, and he doesn't dare to go back now.
After finally staying up all night, Yu Liang, who was covered with mosquito bags, opened his eyes and looked outside carefully.
Now the teacher and classmates don't know what's going on, and he has nowhere to go and may be caught if he leaves rashly, but he understands that he can't hide here all the time, otherwise he will starve to death if he doesn't get bitten by mosquitoes.
He had to find a safe place to settle as soon as possible.
"Brother Zhang."
Yu Liang quickly remembered a person who could help him, saved him on the train, and hit him off at first sight.
At this time in Nanjing, he could only take refuge in this one person.
Zhang Yongjian said before that he was going to Shanghai to buy goods and would return in three days, and he should have returned to Nanjing earlier than himself, but fortunately, the two left each other's addresses at the beginning, and he knew Zhang Yongjian's residence.
He carefully cleaned himself up, so as not to look too embarrassed and attract the attention of others, and quietly walked out of the broken house towards the address Zhang Yongjian gave him.
"The rookie came out of the cage and went to the direction of five o'clock, and informed the brother over there to keep an eye on him."
In the distance, Yuan Qingshu, the captain of a group, gave an order, Yu Liang was Chu Lingyun's follow-up arrangement on the Xintian case, he had actually been under surveillance, and he was able to escape by deliberately releasing water.
Otherwise, there are so many agents of the military intelligence department guarding him, as long as he comes back, there is no possibility of escape.
"The rookie went to the direction of seven o'clock, and it seems that he was planning to return home."
The team members came to report and noticed Yu Liang's route, and Yuan Qingshu immediately understood that he was preparing to find Zhang Acheng according to the predetermined plan.
Zhang Acheng is a member of the fourth group of the operation, but this case is jointly investigated by two groups, and the follow-up Yu Liang case is also handled jointly by two groups.
"Inform the brothers of the four groups and get them ready."
Yuan Qingshu asked people to report to Zhang Acheng, and the address that Zhang Acheng left for Yu Liang was a safe house for them, as long as Yu Liang was sure to pass, Zhang Acheng would take the next step.
When he came to the address Zhang Acheng said, Yu Liang's heart suddenly tightened.
The door was locked, and there was no one in the house.
He didn't know if Brother Zhang hadn't come back from Shanghai, or if he had gone out, and now that he was desperate, he could only wait in the dark.
This is a whole day, penniless, his hungry stomach growls, but he doesn't dare to go, he keeps praying in his heart that his big brother Zhang will come back as soon as possible.
When it was almost dark, Yu Liang finally saw the figure he wanted to see the most.
Noticing that Zhang Acheng was coming from a distance, Yu Liang's eyes were red, and he almost didn't cry, he first looked around, and when Zhang Acheng opened the door, he quickly walked over.
"Brother Zhang."
Yu Liang whispered from behind, Zhang Acheng knew that he was there, but he still deliberately turned around and asked in surprise, "Yu Liang, why are you here?"
"Brother Zhang, it's inconvenient to talk outside, can you let me in and talk?"
Yu Liang said quickly, after being chased, he felt that there might be someone who arrested him anywhere, so he was very careful.
In the past two days, he has deeply understood what it means to live like a year.
