The godfather said, tightening his collar and stretching out two fingers one after another: "That's me, and my friend 'Ultramarine'.
"We promise that we will never collect a penny of dividends, profits, wages and other forms of income from the 'Fuji Society'. We will not take a penny from all the income received from the Fuji Society, and will invest all of it into a
In the open and transparent fund pool. That is the 'Fuji Fund' used by the Fuji Society to help others."
Having said this, the barber raised his eyebrows and his expression became relaxed.
"Let's be realistic, friends. All the help given by the Fuji Society will eventually be rewarded. But there is no need to worry, because the reward we ask for in the end will definitely be less than the help we give you. You also
Think of it as a 'favor loan'.
"For some people, money is not important, they need other types of help; for others, all the suffering they encounter can be summed up as 'no money', for which they are even able to pay
No matter the cost. However, generally speaking, these two kinds of people will never meet each other in their lifetime. What we have to do is to connect the two parties together fairly and objectively.
"In the past, some 'middlemen' would charge exorbitant remuneration. Some were 20%, 30%, and some were 50% or more. But our price is half a percent.
"We allow our employees to draw no more than 5% of Lilan from each transaction they manage. This fee needs to be given to Fuji Society as a notarization fee for supervising the generation of the contract. If we are responsible for this 'Fuji
'The employees who made the transaction voluntarily gave up Lilan's commission, and Fuji Society will also take no penny from it.
"We will also provide interest-free loans to individuals and companies who are able to repay the loans and are in urgent need, or provide trustworthy private bodyguards, escorts, and detectives. At the same time, if there are any commitments, entrustments, contracts, and wills that require third-party notarization
You can also come to us for notarization activities. Fuji Society only charges 1% of the notarization fee, and can save all documents and evidence that need to be preserved by a third party, and ensure that the final recovery and execution are in place.
"On this basis, we also accept donations from companies and individuals for the relief society itself. If you have no money, you are welcome to volunteer. We also welcome other companies to join us and become 'relief merchants' who help others together.
"We will have an office in Tian'en District and a highly confidential vault. The office environment is bright and clean, with all equipment and documents complete. Employees only need to work six hours a day and have a basic salary that is the average income level of Happy Island.
, there are two days off per week and four paid holidays per month. Any form of overtime is not accepted.
“Then there are the benefits of our company. We will provide all employees with free purchase of Ampoule Biomedical’s silver-level medical insurance package, and provide free education funds for employees’ children. As long as their grades are up to standard, the company will provide all educational investments for employees’ children—
—This money will not come out of the fund pool,
It is provided from the savings of myself and Mr. Ultramarine. This itself is also regarded as an indefinite "relief" action initiated by us with zero interest. You can repay it at any time if you want in the future, and you can extend it arbitrarily if it is inconvenient.
.But in theory, this is not a charity, but a 'relief' transaction.
…
"We recruit employees regardless of their academic qualifications or background. We can also accept uncoded people and people with criminal records. As long as you really have a heart that is willing to give to others. To be precise, it means that you really do good deeds that help others, and with the help of support
Jishe, or has helped others many times by his own strength. However, if someone commits evil in the name of Fujishe's 'trader', we will also impose severe penalties.
"The company's turnover will be posted on the website every month and will be fully disclosed. It will be confirmed by internal and external personnel at any time to ensure that Fuji Society will not be greedy for a penny from top to bottom.
"This is the only company in the Seven Sky Islands where employees enjoy benefits and salaries, but executives will not receive a penny and will not enjoy any benefits. Because we believe that serving others is an honor. This is
The only work is work that is an 'end' in itself.
"How long we can last depends on how long people want us to exist - this is the best kind of public supervision. It's like taking poison and expecting the antidote to be delivered in due time.
"——And this is my sincerity."
After saying that, the barber turned back and looked at the emperor with a smile: "How about it, Mr. Emperor?"
"……incredible."
The emperor replied sincerely: "I am almost sixty years old this year. This is the first time I have seen a company specifically responsible for sending money."
Because what the barber said was so shocking, the emperor didn't even have time to interrupt.
He originally thought the barber would launch a speech, but what he ended up with was an unprecedented advertisement.
And because the content of the advertisement was so outrageous, the emperor froze in his seat.
"...In every sense of the word, this is too unbelievable behavior. Don't you discuss how to do good and how to make people 'both able and dare'?"
"What I said is the answer I gave. Mr. Emperor."
The barber smiled and said: "I won't talk about it and sell those dreams here.
"All those who really need help from the Relief Society will not believe the rhetoric of those orators. I did not understand this truth before, telling the poorest and most difficult people that they have seen nothing in their entire lives.
An unimaginable future.
"That's my fault. I think it's a kind of arrogance... an arrogance that is not down to earth and doesn't want to be down to earth.
"What I'm talking about now is the 'implementation' that people are most concerned about. This is exactly my answer on how to make people 'both able and dare'."
"...It's really, really unbelievable."
The emperor still did not recover.
He was still chewing on what the barber had said before, and gave a stern warning: "You made such a promise in front of the entire island's audience. Do you know what will happen if you can't do it?"
"I will pay the price."
The barber shrugged: "But that doesn't matter - as I said before, the existence of the company depends entirely on external support, and it comes from whether people want us to exist."
"But have you ever thought about whether the people you help... can really help you? I must say something to offend people. Most people have their limits. There are very few things they can do, and helping
Their expenses must be much higher than their income. If the scale is limited to the club, they may be able to barely maintain balance... But if it is brought to the table, it is a pure loss-making business. Just rely on you and Ultramarine,
There is no way it can last much longer.
…
"Your help to others will never recoup the cost. And people may not thank you."
"That's just an excuse for someone who doesn't want to help."
The barber shook his head.
The emperor just stared at him, not joking, but said seriously: "This is not an excuse, but a fact. The world runs on the track of selfishness and suspicion. If you trust others too much, you are destined to be betrayed and bruised.
"You say you want to give people reality, but what you say is still just a dream that has been rendered through the filter of 'reality'. It's just a childlike fantasy for adults."
"Then let us have such a dream together."
The barber smiled cheerfully: "The darker the reality, the more bright dreams are needed... isn't it?
"I believe that the comment section of the program must also be shining with light at this moment. That is the light called justice, hope and kindness.
"I believe that most people have, or have had, good intentions in their hearts. They have just been wiped out by life, or... because they are not strong enough.
"It is precisely because we are not strong enough that there is no room for kindness. And everyone will definitely question it in their hearts at that time.
"Why is it that at this time, no big shot is willing to stand up and speak out for justice?
"——Now, we have stood up."
The barber's face, which was only attractive, as gentle as the big brother next door, seemed to be shining with brilliance at this moment.
He has really changed.
The emperor looked at him deeply, unable to understand for a moment.
What on earth could make a person so arrogant and proud... suddenly become like this?
But he will not know that the barber has changed, but in fact he has not changed.
From the very beginning, he was selling hope and possibility to the uncoded - not many people were willing to believe him at that time.
But now, he has just made this business bigger and more formal.
And the most important thing... is that he will no longer be the one to pay.
He is no longer a lone hero, no longer a madman who is not understood by others, and no longer a "godfather" who gives the villains a sense of security.
But what really stands under the sun... is another banner besides "heroes".
That is also the only possibility that can unite the seven islands.
This is a future beyond the understanding of the Emperor.
It was a purpose known only to Russell.
"For those who still have dreams in their hearts and whose passion is still alive, please join us."
Under the spotlight, the barber solemnly declared: "Let us turn you into a part of something great."
That great thing is called "collective" and "people".
That is a plan that neither the Emperor, Bing Shui, Delphinium, the Bad One, nor even the people in the Tower of Babel can understand.
This is the first step of another grand plan secretly constructed by Russell, facing the desperate future he knows, only "Ultramarine", "Barber", "Detective", "Morgan" and others...
——Reunite the old civilization that collapsed on the seven empty islands;
——To reunite people who are scattered in various places and do not understand each other;
——Gather everyone's strength and work hard for the same goal...
This was necessary if he wanted to fight against the hopeless future he knew.
So no matter how difficult it is, you must do it.
The Fuji Society is just a prototype, the egg shell of something great.
What is brewing inside is the great thing Russell really wants to create——
Bypassing the dragon's ban, abandoning the "name" of government, and only in fact...rebuilding a unified country again.
