72. Good boss, you are too greedy
G-61 cabin.
Through a short conversation, the four gradually got acquainted.
Tommy Ryan had a good heart, and after seeing the gun holster looming under the armpit of Russell's trench coat, he took the initiative to give up the best bed position in the cabin.
Russell was not polite, threw his suit to the left top bunk, took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and handed it to Tommy.
The cigarettes were bought while passing by the café for 5 cents a pack.
Tommy was flattered, and with a slight hesitation, took the cigarette and handed it out to his companions.
"Mr. Walker, your suit is expensive, ordinary people can't afford it."
"If the boss you're following is rich, you can afford it."
Tommy nodded in amazement, "Mr. Walker, what do you do?" ”
"Once an explorer, now a consultant who provides security for the wealthy."
"Advisor?"
"Personal bodyguard!"
"No wonder ......"
Russell smiled and took off his trench coat, revealing the holster under his armpit, "You mean this?" Obviously, it made perfect sense for me to carry a firearm on board as a security consultant. ”
Tommy nodded heavily: "Yes! ”
The other two companions also put away the smiles on their faces, and sat on the bed with cigarettes in their mouths.
"Don't be nervous, it's just an ornament, have you ever seen such a beautiful gun?"
Russell took out the gun and fiddled with it.
The three of them looked frightened and shook their heads in a daze.
"So, it's just a toy for adults."
Tommy saw him put away his gun and said with a sigh of relief, "Mr. Walker, I have a lot of respect for your profession. But it's dangerous, isn't it? ”
"Of course, there are some risks, but where is the danger of protecting women? My boss is a kind woman, she is very generous, much more generous than those aristocrats who claim to be arrogant and picky, guess how much money I can make on this trip? ”
"$50?"
Tommy: "$100? ”
Russell shook his head and held out two fingers, "$500!" ”
"What?"
Hearing this, the three of them all exclaimed, and a look of surprise appeared on their faces.
$500 was their salary for nearly two years without food or drink, and Mr. Walker earned it just by boarding and disembarking.
It's really more popular than people.
For a while, Tommy and the three of them were extremely envious, and their hearts were also ready to move.
As the trio made eye contact, Russell lifted his suit and leather shoes and changed into them, then walked to the bathroom to look in the mirror to fix his hair and beard.
This body is about 1.85 meters, and the suit given by Mrs. Brown is just right on him, with white skin, dark blue pupils, a high nose bridge, and clear and ...... contours.
When he walked out of the bathroom, Tommy got up and exclaimed, "Oh! Mr. Walker, you have become an authentic London gentleman in a suit, and you are very handsome. ”
Russell ignored his blunt praise and said, "People rely on clothes and horses and saddles, and if you wear suits, you will also become gentlemen." ”
"Mr. Walker, we are just farmers, except for my daughter getting married, I'm afraid I won't have a chance to wear a suit in my life."
Russell patted him on the shoulder and said meaningfully: "People go to high places and water flows to low places, if you position yourself as a farmer, then your future achievements may not be high." ”
"For example, I used to be an adventurous explorer, and then I started a company that specializes in providing security for the wealthy, and I was a life-changer."
Tommy was stunned, "You have a company?" So you're the boss? ”
"That's right, I founded Walker Security in London half a year ago, and there are currently thirty-eight people in the company who provide security services for nobles and celebrities."
"Then how do you ...... it yourself?"
What Tommy wants to say is that you are the boss why you should take over the job yourself, but because of Russell's status, it is difficult to say it directly.
Russell sat cross-legged on a stool and pulled out a cigarette, while Tommy graciously took out a match and bent down to light it for him.
Smoke spit out, "The goal of providing security services this time is important, she is very rich. I just took the opportunity to set up a branch in the United States......"
"Mr. Walker, we don't want to be farmers either, to be honest, do you have any good advice?"
Russell pondered for a moment and smiled: "I suggest you find a factory job in the United States, although the salary is not high, but it is relatively stable. ”
Tommy was a little lost, he pinched his leg and said bluntly: "Mr. Walker, we are together by fate, you happen to set up a security branch in the United States, can we do things for you?" ”
In this way, when they arrive in the United States, they do not have to stare and blind, but quickly get on the right track.
Russell frowned and was a little reluctant, "I'm afraid you're not suitable for this business, you have a wife and daughter, this business is too dangerous, I don't recommend ......"
"Mr. Walker, I am not afraid of danger, I just want to change my life. I didn't have this kind of opportunity before, but you showed up, and your words just now convinced me that I want to give my wife and daughter a prosperous life, and I don't want them to live a hard life with me. ”
Tommy revealed his true feelings, and the two people next to him also nodded heavily.
"But you ......"
"Mr. Walker, please give me a chance, as long as I can live a good life, I am willing to give everything!"
Russell smiled: "Aren't you afraid that I'm a liar?" ”
"No, crooks don't bring real guns on board, and the crew responsible for security aren't decorations. You can tell from your suit and leather shoes that everything you just said is true. ”
Lemai next to him answered, "Your suit is a high-end French handmade suit, I once saw the groom wearing the same suit at the wedding of the farmer's daughter, and a set cost 15 pounds!" ”
Russell waved and they fell silent, listening.
"In fact, security work is not as simple as you think, and sometimes you need to fight on the battlefield, which is very dangerous."
The more he said that, the more convinced the three Tommy were.
People sometimes just persuade more and more, and the more they talk, the more they talk.
"Mr. Walker, I'm not afraid of danger!"
"Me too."
“……”
Russell said helplessly: "It is not legal in the United States to recruit employees before the branch is established, it is more like a gang." Therefore, your salary will be paid according to the probationary period, and you will be paid the official salary when the U.S. branch is established. ”
Tommy anxiously asked, "Sir, what is the salary for the probationary period......"
"During the probationary period, I was paid 20 cents a day when I had no tasks, and I was paid $1 a day when I had a task. After becoming a regular, 50 cents of leisure, there is a task of 3 dollars a day, is there a problem? ”
Tommy and the three of them were quite excited, and his pupils trembled, "No, no, we don't have any problems, Mr. Walker!" ”
They think they've got a good boss.
If they have tasks every day after becoming regulars, then they can earn more than $1,000 a year, which is three times the annual salary of ordinary American workers!
"Mr. Walker, I wonder how many people you need in your branch? I have some fellows on the boat as well......"
Russell frowned and angrily: "Tommy, you are too greedy. ”
Tommy craned his neck, "Sir, please don't be angry. I'm a bit greedy, but they're definitely good at the job. ”
"I don't want a farmer."
"They were railway workers who had fought with the British police during the strike movement."
Russell looked up at the three of them, nodding in their expectant eyes.
"Their daily wage during the probationary period was 10 cents."
"Okay, thank you for giving them the opportunity, thank you, Mr. Walker."
Hearing this, Tommy and the three of them were excited.
