Zhang Agou followed this employee to the office of company boss Stree on the third floor. Zhang Agou bent forward and asked cautiously to Stree, who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window looking out at the scenery of the Huangpu River. "See you there."
Boss, I don’t know what orders you have from me.”
After hearing Zhang Agou's inquiry, Stree continued to look at the scenery outside and asked, "How is the matter that I asked you to do, Zhang?"
"Now I have found a lot of people and asked them to spread the word that our foreign company is now issuing rubber stocks and can pay dividends. Now basically everyone on the street knows the news."
Stree listened to his answer to him. Stree still knew about this man named Zhang Agou. He was a member of the lower class of society. He was uneducated and didn't want to work hard. He was very well-informed about gossip. He thought about where he was every day.
It's better to find some money than to be a gangster. Now they need such a person to understand every move in this city. And when it is inconvenient for them to go out, they can let Zhang, a local, negotiate for them.
"Zhang, you did a great job, I can see it. Now I need you to help me with another thing."
"Boss, please give me your instructions." Zhang Agou, who didn't know his future destiny, was still very grateful to this boss who spoke Chinese more fluently than himself. When he heard that there was something he needed to do, he hurriedly came up.
Show loyalty before.
"I want you to go to the gang leaders in this city and ask them to find someone to help us promote the company's stock. Can you do it?" Sterry turned to look at him and said his request.
"No problem, boss, I'll take care of this." I heard that it was too easy to find a gang. For Zhang Agou, who has been at the bottom of society since he was a child, gangs are a part of his life.
Sterry continued. "Zhang, if you come forward in this matter, you can give them three thousand taels of silver as a reward, but it will take four months for one hundred and fifteen of them."
Zhang Agou was also shocked when he heard the remuneration offered by his boss. Five taels a month is four times the wages of ordinary workers today, and he can get it for four consecutive months. This made Zhang Agou almost step forward to check.
Is the boss suffering from epilepsy?
Of course, this is not that Sterry is crazy, this is the result of careful calculation. If you want to quickly open up the situation, throwing money is the best way. Spending a lot of money to buy an office building, paying a lot of money to hire people to do things, are all
For this result, Sterry wanted to tell everyone in Shanghai that Willis Rubber Company didn't care about the small money because it had better profits.
"Boss, is the price a bit high?" Zhang Agou still felt that he should remind him to show his loyalty.
"Do I need you to teach me how to do it?" Faced with Zhang Agou's question, Steri felt the need to give him a slap.
"Boss, I am too talkative. I will definitely handle this matter beautifully this time." Zhang Agou, who failed to show his loyalty, quickly said in a remedial manner, not forgetting to slap himself in the mouth a few times. He is really a good dog leg.
"You go to the finance department and get some money to do things." Stree said to Zhang Agou. After saying this, he suddenly felt that although this person is not a good person, he knows how to figure out people's thoughts, which can relieve the pressure in his heart.
.
After Zhang Agou walked out of Stree's office, he put away his flattery. Although he had no other skills, he was still good at observing people's thoughts and words. Walking in the corridor, Zhang Agou was a little complacent and evaluated himself in his heart. He walked to
When I turned a corner, I almost collided with a figure.
"Zhang, don't you watch when you're walking?" Stocker, who was almost hit, scolded Zhang Agou in English.
Seeing that he almost bumped into the boss's butler, he didn't understand his bird talk, but Zhang Agou knew from his expression that this was not a good thing, so he quickly put on a flattering expression, nodded and apologized to him. "I'm sorry, Mr. Stocker, I'm sorry," he said.
, I didn’t notice it.”
Although Stoker's Chinese was poor and he didn't understand Zhang Agou's words, he understood the meaning of his expressions and movements. After waving to him, Stoker walked directly towards Sterry's office. Seeing Si
Tokel had no intention of blaming him, and Zhang Agou hurriedly went to do what Stri had asked him to do.
Stocker walked into Sterry's office and told Sterry, who was still looking out the window at the view of the Huangpu River. "We bought the rubber plantation we were looking for in Sumatra, and it cost us 50,000 pounds."
"The price is not high, and the three thousand acres of rubber plantation is still worth it." Hearing that his assistant was a little dissatisfied with the price, Sterry felt it was necessary to explain. "Now that the price of rubber is rising, it has driven a large number of construction of rubber plantations, especially
It’s hard to buy rubber products now. If our local people hadn’t used some tricks, it would have been even harder.”
Stocker nodded in agreement with Sterry's words.
"This is good, at least it will allow us to bring more money back."
When they were talking about how to cheat the Qing Dynasty's money, Zhang Agou also followed Stree's instructions and thought about who should give this wealth. In his mind, the street figures he guided flashed through his mind.
Zhang Agou chose a person he was familiar with and had a good reputation, Cai Asi, who was the leading figure in Sanhuai.
After some inquiries, Zhang Agou finally met him in the casino run by Cai Asi. After some greetings, Cai Asi asked Zhang Agou why he was looking for him. "Brother Agou came to see me this time.
Something happened."
As a leading figure, Cai Asi still knew about the matter concerning Zhang Agou. This little Dunsan had gotten close to a foreign businessman for some unknown reason. He must have come to see him this time because the foreign businessman behind him needed help.
Faced with Cai Ahsi's politeness, Zhang Agou also felt that it was a good thing. After all, not everyone can receive Cai Ahsi's politeness. "Fourth brother is looking for you this time because he has a big deal and wants your help."
"How much business did Brother Agou bring me?" Cai Asi asked, picking up his jade pipe and playing with it.
"This time, Willis & Co. needs one hundred and fifty people for four months and three thousand taels of silver as compensation." Zhang Agou told Cai Asi about the purpose of looking for him this time, and he did not forget to extend his three thousand taels.
Make a gesture with your fingers.
After hearing Zhang Agou's offer of three thousand taels as reward, Cai Asi put down the pipe in his hand and said, "This is indeed a big deal. I'll take this job."
"But you can't fool my boss with some crooked melons and jujubes."
"Brother Agou, you also know my name, Cai Asi. I am the most fair in everything I do."
"This is a deposit of 1,500 taels, and I will pay the other half after the work is completed." Zhang Agou took out fifteen 100 taels of Yuanfengrun silver notes that he had not warmed up, and placed them in front of Cai Asi.
At this moment, he felt that he had never been so proud.
"Brother Agou is so refreshing." After Cai Asi praised him, he took out one and handed it to Zhang Agou and said, "Brother Agou is not easy to run errands for a foreign company. This is tea money."
"This is your money, how can I take it?" Zhang Agou politely postponed.
"Brother Agou, I don't treat you as an outsider. You are looking down upon me by introducing such a business to me. Don't delay it, otherwise I will fall out." Facing Zhang Agou's mentality, Cai Agou said
The fourth wife understands, and a small trick of good luck breaks out. Now give him some small favors to make friends with him, so that you can get involved in foreign companies in the future.
After completing the task assigned by his boss, Zhang Agou thought where he should go to comfort himself.
"Uncle Hu is still waiting to treat himself to dinner. After eating, he will go to Yichun Building to find Xiao Mixian Baibaihuo." Zhang Agou, who had thought of a place to go, staggered towards Uncle Hu's house.
