Chapter 256: Heading to JPMorgan Chase
Chapter 256: Heading to JPMorgan Chase
"Lao Wang, Lao Liu, you and the two white men will take turns guarding the yacht from today to tomorrow. There are things I brought back on board.
The things inside are very important. Each person who completes this mission will be rewarded with 100 US dollars. "After Hou Xiaoge got on the dock, he said to the guards and the two cowboys guarding the dock.
"Good boss!"
The supplies on the ship were sealed, and Hou Xiaoge made marks on them. This was a good opportunity to test a few people. If they passed the test, they would be accepted into the Yanhuang Alliance.
The farm owner's villa has not been occupied for several months and is temporarily unavailable.
The city was not far away, so Hou Xiaoge took the remaining two guards and Zhang Xiaonao back to a nearby hotel.
As soon as I returned to the Fulin Hotel, I saw the two brothers Huang Jiasheng, He Youde, and Zhang Juncai standing at the door.
"Brother, I'm back."
"boss!"
Hou Xiaoge called these people in advance from the farm to discuss recruiting.
As for the telephone, it was naturally the farm's landline phone. Rich American families had no shortage of this thing.
“Brothers, Ah Fa should have told you about the recruitment.
Because of the construction of the farm, we need 100 people to run the farm temporarily, and 50 guards. I wonder if you guys can recruit the right people. "Hou Xiaoge recruited a lot of people, mainly to prepare for the acquisition later.
"Brother, America may not have much in other aspects, but it has a lot of idle people, especially the Chinese. There are simply too many of us.
Just because you provide food and accommodation, and you get 25 US dollars a month, and you can even take care of your children, there are many people vying for this treatment. "Zhang Juncai said first with a loud voice.
"Yes!"
"Xinsheng, there is no problem with the protection. The workers who built the railway crawled out of a pile of dead bodies. How many of them have never seen blood?
You pay thirty-five dollars a month, which is only fifteen dollars less than the monthly salary of American soldiers, and it also includes food and accommodation. This treatment is already better than many white companies." He Youde also said with a smile.
On the other side, Huang Jiasheng just smiled because he and his wife had found jobs. After all, there was still a gap between his ability and the two people who could open a restaurant.
As for the salary of US$35 that Hou Xiaoge offered to his guards, although it was much lower than the current average salary of US$80 or 90 in the United States, Hou Xiaoge provided food and accommodation.
According to data from some media, the salary of an ordinary single soldier in the US military is fifty US dollars, which is six to seven times that in China.
It is just like how civil servants in later generations who earn two or three thousand yuan a month do not envy cattle and horses who earn more than ten thousand yuan. Although their salaries are low, their other hidden benefits are incomparable to cattle and horses.
Fifty dollars a month is a net loss, and if you make some achievements, you can earn more. This figure alone exceeds the income of 80% of single young people in the United States. Otherwise, why would anyone be willing to join the army?
After all, this is America, where you won't starve even if you lie down! If the treatment is not good, who would go there?
Of course, the guards are not going to fight on the battlefield, and Hou Xiaoge cannot provide such a high standard of living to the people he hires.
But if we compare it horizontally with ordinary people in the United States, it is no problem for the total benefits to be three times higher.
Hou Xiaoge also allowed these people to bring children under the age of sixteen to live on the farm, and the farm provided them with food and accommodation.
So, let alone these people, even Hou Xiaoge himself in the future would be willing to receive this benefit.
"That's good. I'll leave the recruiting task to you two brothers." Hou Xiaoge nodded with satisfaction.
“Brother Jiasheng, you don’t have to go to the farm for your work for now. My two manors and villas need to be renovated and tidied.
Your task is to supervise and look after these construction sites." Hou Xiaoge said to Huang Jiasheng who was standing aside.
"No problem. Even if I live at the construction site every day, I will definitely keep an eye on the work." Huang Jiasheng assured, patting his chest.
"That's good!"
“Two brothers, if you know of any Chinese construction companies, please help contact them so that we can give some of the work to our people.
We can’t let foreigners make all the money, especially my Japanese-style manor. Foreigners don’t understand. When the time comes, we Chinese will be asked to transform the building into a Chinese classical manor. ” Hou Xiaoge smiled and bowed to the two of them.
"We are all friends. We will help Ah Fa to contact them even without you having to mention it." The two nodded.
"That's good. I just bought a yacht today. After I'm done with my work these few days, you two brothers can bring your families to my fish farm to go fishing and have fun." Hou Xiaoge invited enthusiastically.
"Haha! That's great. I, a country bumpkin from the northwest, have never been on a yacht!" Zhang Juncai slapped his thigh with joy.
"When I was a child, I often went fishing with my father on the landlord's boat. Now I have opened a restaurant, and I haven't fished for a long time. My hands are not very good at fishing. Let's go together when the time comes." He Youde was also very excited.
After arranging a few people, I happily had a sumptuous dinner, which meant I had completed a task.
The next day, the lawyers and accounting firm personnel went to Billy's farm for inspection, while Hou Xiaoge went to JPMorgan Chase Bank.
"Manager Reagan, the goods have been delivered to my farm. Do you know how to trade?" Hou Xiaoge asked in the reception room.
"quantity?"
“The goods that have arrived now include 35 tons of high-purity tungsten metal, 25 tons of high-quality pig bristles, and 12.5 tons of tung oil.
These are just the first batch of goods. If the cooperation goes well, there will be 200 tons of bristles, 280 tons of tung oil, 30 tons of tin, 10 tons of antimony, and 3 tons of mercury in the next week. I wonder if Manager Reagan can make the decision?" Hou Xiaoge said.
"hiss!"
When Reagan heard the number reported by Hou Xiaoge, he took a breath of cold air. This was a big project worth three or four million!
Money is secondary. What is most needed is that these materials can bring many invisible collateral benefits.
“This number is a bit high, and I am just a small manager of a district bank, so I cannot make the decision.
Mr. David, please wait a moment. I will go and ask the general manager of Los Angeles, Mr. Morgan Smith Peter.
Mr. Peter is a member of the Morgan family and is extremely powerful. He is responsible for the headquarters in California and several nearby states.
I think he must be very interested in this deal." Reagan apologized and went into the inner office.
Just as Reagan was making a phone call in the office, Hou Xiaoge's mental power began to radiate and he began to eavesdrop.
“Yes, yes, Mr. Peter, these gentlemen named David should be the sons of nobles who have just come from China.
After these few days of contact and investigation, I think he is a mysterious person. I don't know where he came from. I only know that he is related to an organization called Yanhuang League in China.
I originally thought that this transaction would only involve a few hundred thousand dollars and I could make the decision myself, but the amount is really large and there may be some other issues behind it, so I have to report it to you quickly.
There is one more thing. Mr. David said that this cooperation is just a small test.
If the cooperation is pleasant and the deal is a big one worth more than 10 million, I think we should pay attention to it and it would be most appropriate for you to discuss it in person.
Thank you, thank you for your appreciation, everything is for the company, thank you!" Reagan said in his office, nodding and bowing respectfully like a dog to the other end of the phone.
