Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"President, the person has been found."

"Dead or alive?" Chen Zhao asked.

"Do you want to be dead or alive?"

"If it's convenient, keep them alive. Our new headquarters has also built a dungeon. It's hard to leave it empty just after it's built. You have to send something in."

"clear."

Kaos and his team can be said to be doing their best.

It’s been less than a month since I joined the association, and I’ve already received a big gift.

His wine is still at home, while several other people have already had their hands on it.

It sold for $250,000, which made them extremely happy.

This money is real money. Kaos feels that the value of this wine will definitely increase, so he does not plan to sell it for the time being.

Furthermore, they have just joined the association, so they have to perform well.

Especially they are a special group of people.

Because they don't know magic, they have to show their worth.

Chen Zhao also admired the well-trained training of Kaos and others.

In less than two days, he actually found the person.

Chen Zhao also didn't understand Kaos and the others.

They used to battle wits and courage with some terrorists.

And this time what they are looking for is a group of poaching gangs.

It was not difficult at all. It took almost no effort to find the person.

After catching someone, Chen Zhao felt better again.

But Chen Zhao plans to put some things in his territory.

In order not to let your enemies take notice of you, and inexplicably make those around you guilty.

"Chen, are you going to take little Ge Lin out to the supermarket?"

Woof woof——

Before Chen Zhao had time to answer, Heima and Baima ran over happily.

"Do you have anyone else to go?" Fali ignored Chen Zhao's answer and asked the other pets directly.

The princess walked slowly to Fali, then Wanda.

"My dear, don't be idle at home all the time. Go out for a walk, or go to Mr. Steven and the others for a drink." Fali said to Chen Zhao before going out.

Because Christmas is approaching, Chen Zhao's business has dropped a lot.

In ten days, Chen Zhao didn't leave the house at all.

Fali was afraid that Chen Zhao would be too busy.

Chen Zhao is too lazy to go out, he would rather be a salted fish at home.

By the way, since Christmas is coming, it’s time to send a red envelope to the people in the association.

For foreigners, Christmas is equivalent to the Chinese New Year.

Then let's give each person a red envelope.

Chen Zhao thought again that there was still Felwood Cisco and his engineering team at the headquarters, so he couldn't forget them.

"Mr. Felwood, I want to ask you something."

"What's the matter? Mr. Chen?"

"I would like to ask, how many people are there in total to help me with the construction of my project?"

"Mr. Chen, is there something wrong with my engineering team?"

"No, just asking."

"There are forty-five people in total, Mr. Chen. They are all professionals. I believe in their professionalism and will not be lazy or do other illegal operations that violate the project agreement."

"Is this number accurate?" Chen Zhao asked.

"Yes, if Mr. Chen doesn't believe it, I can give you the list of our engineering team."

"There's no need for that, just get busy."

With that said, Chen Zhao hung up the phone.

Felwood Cisco was filled with worries. Chen Zhao's mindless phone call made him unable to calm down at all.

What does Chen Zhao's phone call mean?

Felwood Cisco thought about it nervously for more than two hours, but still felt uneasy.

"Hey, Tammy, call all the engineering team leaders over for a meeting."

Not long after, all the engineering team leaders arrived in front of Felwood Cisco.

"Have your men made any illegal operations in the past two days?"

"Boss, our people are very honest."

"Except for one person who asked for leave, my staff found no violations."

Felwood Cisco thought for a long time and found that there was no problem.

"Has any engineering materials been lost at the construction site?"

"Boss, did you discover any theft?"

These foremen thought that there was a theft at the construction site.

Even though the United States is a developed country, the unemployment rate remains high.

Especially for low-skilled jobs like theirs, they can be easily replaced.

For an American, unemployment often means despair.

Don’t think that everything will be fine if you have unemployment insurance. Unemployment insurance cannot cover their credit card repayments.

Once they lose their job, it often means they will lose their house, car, and even their family.

There are so many homeless people in the United States, and many of them even have extremely high academic qualifications.

Just because of a job loss, they lost everything and have been unable to recover since then.

So when they heard about the theft at the construction site, they all became nervous.

The biggest problem at a construction site is not dead people, but theft.

At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door outside the simple conference room.

"Boss, Mr. Chen is here." A worker said hurriedly.

Everyone showed fear, feeling that Chen Zhao was here to settle a score with them.

Felwood Cisco's mind was also blank.

"Follow me to see Mr. Chen."

When Felwood Cisco and his men saw Chen Zhao approaching, a look of difficulty appeared on their faces.

Chen Zhao stepped forward and handed Felwood Cisco a big red envelope.

"this is for you."

"Mr. Chen...this..."

Felwood Cisco thought it was a lawyer's letter.

"You also have a share, come here." Chen Zhao passed by Felwood Cisco and stuffed a red envelope for everyone behind him.

"This... so much money?" A foreman opened the red envelope and asked, "Mr. Chen, what does this mean?"

Felwood Cisco also opened the red envelope and saw a brand new stack of banknotes.

They were all in hundred dollar bills, probably twenty thousand dollars.

"Mr. Chen...this..."

"We Chinese have the custom of giving out red envelopes during the New Year, usually to our juniors or subordinates, but we give them out during the Spring Festival. You Americans don't have the Spring Festival, so I will give them out to you before Christmas." Chen Zhao said: " I asked you just now about the number of people in your engineering team because I was afraid that if there were fewer red envelopes prepared, some people would not be enough."

Felwood Cisco almost burst into tears. He was almost frightened into tears by Chen Zhao's call.

"Can you call all your people over? I will give them red envelopes with my own hands."

"Go, hurry up and call someone." Felwood Cisco immediately shouted.

When the construction workers heard that there was money to be paid, they immediately came over and lined up.

Chen Zhao personally distributed the red envelopes to the construction workers one by one.

Felwood Cisco looked at Chen Zhao. In just a moment, he had already made two to three hundred thousand US dollars.

His red envelope contained $20,000, other foremen received $10,000, and ordinary construction workers received $5,000.

"Mr. Chen, I will urge the engineering team to build the house as soon as possible."

"Don't be too anxious. Anyway, I gave all my men a big holiday. They are going to Cape Town in a few days. Even if you build the house, it will still be empty. Just build the house according to the contract time."

Felwood Cisco once again sighed at Chen Zhao's heroism. At this time, an Indian worker ran over.

"Mr. Chen, this is the custom of our Oara tribe. To show our respect, of course we offer our tribe's totem 'Azu'. Please accept it."

"Thank you." Chen Zhao took an animal tooth tied with a straw rope and gave the Indian a hug.
