Chapter 307 Increased Dividends
Smith did a good job. His previous business failed because he couldn't handle it in China.

It seems that he has learned his lesson this time. The recruitment of a secretary is not completely according to his own preferences. He knows how to recruit someone with connections.

"Miss Chloe, you have worked hard."

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 have to pay me the first year's salary in advance."

Chloe knows who the real boss is. On the surface, Smith is the general manager, but in fact the young Chinese is the real boss.

In fact, she did not agree to Smith's employment at the beginning, the reason is very simple, her salary will not be paid in full until she arrives in China.

Relying on his three-inch tongue, Smith persuaded Chloe and finally coaxed her to board the boat.

"Mr. Chu, his salary is calculated on an annual basis. It costs two thousand dollars a year, and it is only the first year. After he does a good job, his salary will increase. Smith said that this money is paid by the company, and I ask you to pay her first." .”

Liu Chengzhu said in a low voice, two thousand dollars is too high, what he thought at the time was to talk about the price, after all Liu Chengzhu is a businessman, knowing that Chloe's relationship is very useful to them.

It's a pity that Chu Yuan didn't agree, so Smith simply signed the contract with him.

In America, where Smith is the titular boss, there's nothing they can do about it.

Chu Yuan didn't give Smith any 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 will pay you your salary later."

Chu Lingyun smiled and said, two thousand dollars is really high, he hired those six foreign men with a high salary, the monthly salary is only thirty dollars, all six of them can't compare with Chloe alone.

But as long as Chloe can help them clear the relationship in the International Settlement, the money is still worth it, even very cheap.

"That's good."

Chloe breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't realize until she was coaxed onto the boat that if she didn't give her money when she arrived in China, she wouldn't have the money to buy the ticket back.

She was anxious all the way, and after arriving in China, the situation she was most worried about finally did not happen.

"Go and pick up the goods, the car is ready."

Seeing that the people on the boat had almost disembarked, Chu Lingyun told Liu Chengzhu that he brought five trucks to pull the cargo this time.

Liu Chengzhu went to pick up the goods, while Chloe looked at Chu Lingyun curiously.

She knew the scale of Smith's company, mainly engaged in the business of sulfa drugs, and the volume was very large, at least 50 US dollars of goods were purchased every year, and the value of the first batch of goods was as high as 20 US dollars.

Doing hundreds of thousands of dollars in business every year, such a scale of business is rare in the United States, it must be the business of big shots and financial groups.

She has a certain understanding of China, knowing that although this country is very poor, there are rich people in the country, and it is a country with a large population and a great market potential.

It's just that she didn't expect that the person who runs such a big business is so young, who looks several years younger than her.

Five trucks were loaded and left, all the way to the warehouse.

Chu Lingyun left ten of his subordinates to guard here. This was his own private matter. Each of them would be rewarded with three yuan a day, so that they would not be busy for nothing.

Of the six hired foreigners, two were left on the outskirts of the warehouse, and the rest were brought along to act as fronts. Four tall foreign devils followed and could scare many people.

"Two thousand dollars, Miss Chloe, please order."

Back at the hotel, Chu Lingyun immediately gave Chloe two thousand dollars in cash. This time he came to Shanghai to do a lot of things, and he brought a lot of money.

Chloe took the money and counted it carefully. There was no problem, and she finally felt relieved.

"Chu, although you are the real boss, Smith hired me, so I only obey Smith's arrangement."

After collecting the money, Chloe said to Chu Lingyun seriously. Liu Chengzhu was taken aback. Knowing that Chief Chu was the real boss, she even said that she only listened to Smith. Is this woman stupid?
"No problem, may I ask, Miss Chloe, what does your uncle do in the Ministry of Industry?"

Chloe looks pretty good, large where it should be big, and thin where it should be thin, but Chu Lingyun is not interested in her appearance at all, what he cares most about is Chloe's uncle.

In the future, his sulfonamide business will be done in the concession, and the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry must establish a good relationship.

Even if there is no Chloe, Chu Lingyun will give Smith a sum of money, let him bribe the senior officials of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, so as to facilitate their future business.

Now sulfa is still inconspicuous, once a war starts, sulfa can be said to be comparable to gold.

At that time, there will be many jealous people. Without sufficient strength and connections, it will be difficult to keep this business.

"Not uncle, yes, cousin."

After thinking for a while, Chloe finally found an adjective. It was not her own uncle who worked in the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau, but her cousin, and the relationship was further away.

"My cousin is Thomas Lane. I only know that he was the deputy director of the police department of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce two years ago."

Chloe replied seriously, but Chu Lingyun was stunned for a moment. Chloe's uncle turned out to be Ryan, who was an important person he had paid attention to in the International Settlement before.

Now Ryan is no longer the deputy director, but the director of the police department, a real big shot in the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

Chloe actually had such a relationship, the two thousand dollars was too worthwhile, and Smith made another contribution.

"Understood. Now that you are in China, you have time to visit this cousin. The company can help you buy gifts."

Chu Lingyun nodded slightly. When Chloe heard that the company was helping to prepare gifts, she finally showed a smile: "Thank you boss, I will go."

"It's been a hard journey, Miss Chloe, please rest early."

Chu Lingyun asked Chloe to return to her room. After she and Liu Chengzhu came back, Chu Lingyun opened the room for them.

"Mr. Chu..."

"Call me boss from now on."

Chu Lingyun interrupted Liu Chengzhu, Liu Chengzhu was stunned for a moment, his heartbeat quickened instantly: "Yes, boss."

Don't think it's just a name change, but Liu Chengzhu understands that his position in Chief Chu's heart is different, or that at this time he is the real one of Chief Chu's own, not Wang Sheng's uncle.

"Boss, we brought two kinds of sulfonamides this time. One is injections, six in a box, and the other is powder, which can be taken orally or externally. However, the effect of injections is the best. This time, [-]% of the sulfa It's an injection."

"According to what the pharmaceutical factory said, sulfa should not be used more often. The first time the effect is the best, if it is used more times, it may be ineffective. If the drug does not work because of this, the pharmaceutical factory will not bear any responsibility."

Liu Chengzhu quickly reported that according to what Liu Chengzhu said, if sulfonamide cannot be used more, it means that it has drug resistance. This is easy to understand. Chu Lingyun is the soul of later generations and understands what drug resistance is.

"It doesn't matter. Sulfonamide is a life-saving drug. No matter whether it works or not, there will be many people who want it."

"Boss, according to our agreement with the pharmaceutical factory, we set the domestic pricing ourselves. How much do you think is the right price?" Liu Chengzhu asked again.

He was rushed to and from the United States by Chu Lingyun, and he didn't know the price of sulfa in the country. Smith knew the price of sulfa in the United States very well, but he also didn't know the price of the drug in China.

"There's no rush, we'll ship the goods when Smith arrives."

Chu Lingyun shook his head, this time only half of the goods came, and the other half would be floating in the sea.

With such a large amount of goods, Chu Lingyun would not do retail sales by himself, as it would be too slow to pay back. He would find a group of partners and let them be his own agents, give them the goods, and let them sell them.

He can't come forward to find an agent, it must be done by Smith.

It would be best to get through Ryan's relationship first. It would be much more convenient if Ryan, the police chief of the public concession, could be invited to help the platform.

"Boss, Smith spent too much money."

After talking about the business, Liu Chengzhu couldn't help suing Smith. When he was in the United States, Smith spent a lot of money, which made him and Chu Yuan uncomfortable.

"It's okay, as long as he can help me earn money, I'm not afraid of him spending money." Chu Lingyun smiled and shook his head.

He is very clear about Smith's peeing behavior. People who are about to live on the streets still want to save face. Such people have some money in their pockets, and they will definitely think about how to maintain their face.

"Isn't it too much for you to give him a dividend?" After hesitating for a while, Liu Chengzhu still asked.

For such a big business, one dividend is quite a lot. When Liu Chengzhu came back, he calculated the account. If the business went well, even if he only made half of the money, Smith's annual dividend would be at least [-] US dollars.

If so much money is given to this prodigal son, sooner or later he will lose it all.

"You are wrong, [-]% is not much, when he comes back, I will increase his dividend."

Chu Lingyun shook his head again, while Liu Chengzhu's eyes widened. Smith didn't invest a single penny, so the boss didn't say much in dividends every year, and he still wanted to give him more?
"Don't worry, he is worth the price, just wait for him to come back."

Chu Lingyun said in a soft voice, since the agency rights negotiated by Smith have performance requirements, the dividends for him can also be paid according to the performance requirements.

How to motivate him will be discussed when he arrives, there is no rush now.

"Yes, boss."

Liu Chengzhu didn't understand, but he didn't dare to object to Chu Lingyun's words. He just felt that he was taking advantage of Smith.

In Nanjing, Yu Liang was like a frightened bird, hiding in an empty house.

After seven days of study at Tongwen Academy, he met many young Japanese heroes and a few Chinese students who supported Japan like him.

He had a fulfilling week this week. He wanted to report to his teacher Shinda Matsubara immediately after he came back, but when he arrived at the school, he immediately learned that the teacher hadn't come to class for two days.

He went to the teacher's house and saw a seal was pasted on the door.

When he was leaving, he found that he was being followed. If he hadn't run fast, he would have been arrested. Afterwards, he tried to find a way to inquire about the situation with the students of other teachers. As a result, many classmates who had a good relationship with him also disappeared.

This made him feel bad, especially when he found that someone was watching near his house, which made him dare not even go home, so he could only hide in this deserted place.

After carefully eating the steamed bun in his hand, Yu Liang was full of worry. He didn't know what happened, 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. Now that he didn't have any money on him, it was very difficult for him to escape from Nanjing City.

Moreover, his classmates had accidents, so he dared not go to them. He was not a local, and he had no relatives here. He only had a small rented house where someone was watching, and he dared not go back now.

After finally staying up all night, Yu Liang, whose body was covered in mosquito bites, opened his eyes and looked outside carefully.

Now the teachers and classmates don't know what happened, he has nowhere to go, if he leaves rashly, he may be arrested, but he understands that he can't hide here all the time, otherwise he will starve to death if he is not bitten by mosquitoes.

He must find a safe place to settle down as soon as possible.

"Brother Zhang."

Yu Liang quickly thought of a person who could help him, Zhang Yongjian who rescued him on the train and hit it off with him right away.

At this time in Nanjing, the only person he can rely on is this person.

Zhang Yongjian said before that he was going to Shanghai to buy goods and would be back in three days. He should have returned to Nanjing earlier than himself. Fortunately, the two exchanged addresses at the beginning, and he knew where Zhang Yongjian lived.

He tidied himself up carefully, so that he would not look too embarrassed and attract the attention of others, quietly walked out of the broken house, and headed 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 brothers over there to keep an eye on him."

In the distance, Yuan Qingshu, the team leader, issued an order. Yu Liang was Chu Lingyun's follow-up arrangement in the Xintian case.

Otherwise, with so many agents guarding him from the Military Intelligence Department, as long as he comes back, there is no possibility of him escaping.

"The rookie went to the direction of seven o'clock, and it seems that he is planning to return home."

The team members came to report and noticed Yu Liang's route. Yuan Qingshu immediately understood that he was going to find Zhang Acheng according to the predetermined plan.

Zhang Acheng is a member of the fourth group of operations, but this case was jointly investigated by the two groups, and the follow-up Yu Liang case was also jointly handled by the two groups.

"Notify the brothers in the four groups and let them get ready."

Yuan Qingshu asked people to report to Zhang Acheng. The address Zhang Acheng left Yu Liang was a safe house for them. As long as Yu Liang was confirmed to go there, Zhang Acheng would take the next step.

Arriving at the address mentioned by Zhang Acheng, Yu Liang's heart tensed up.

The door is locked and no one is home.

He didn't know if Big Brother Zhang didn't come back from Shanghai or if he went out. Now he was desperate and could only wait in the dark.

This wait lasted for a whole day, penniless, his hungry stomach was growling, but he dared not go anywhere, and kept praying in his heart that his brother Zhang would come back as soon as possible.

When it was getting dark, Yu Liang finally saw the figure he most wanted to see.

Noticing Zhang Acheng coming from a distance, Yu Liang's eyes turned red, and he almost didn't cry. He looked around first, and walked over quickly when Zhang Acheng opened the door.

"Brother Zhang."

Yu Liang whispered from behind, Zhang Acheng knew he was there, but turned around on purpose, and asked in surprise, "Yu Liang, why are you here?"

"Brother Zhang, it's not convenient to talk outside, can you let me go in?"

Yu Liang quickly said that after being chased, he felt that there might be someone arresting him, so he was very careful.

In the past two days, he has deeply realized what it means to live like a year.
