1046.Ivankov's amazing journey (page 2/2)
“After all, you can be considered a war hero. Why did you only get a promotion but take away the military power after you came back??”
“Don't mention it. Heraclius is an arrogant fool. He thinks we are disloyal..”
Ivankov, who was tied to a chair, blew out a smoke ring and sighed.:
“It’s not just me, many brothers who participated in the Shadow Valley War were deprived of their power and were given a marginal position to live a leisurely life..
grass!
I have struggled for more than ten years, but in the end I got nothing except a medal. If it hadn't been for this bastard thing, I wouldn't have gone to Booty Bay to gamble and make money. However, you just said that you have a business deal with me. Do?”
Ivankov raised his head and stared at 003 in front of him. He said uneasily.:
“Look at your fight, I'm a little scared, man, is it too late to quit now??”
“Of course, the choice is yours, friend.”
Domestic 003 shrugged and said:
“Outside the door are debt collectors who truly belong to the Blood Rat Gang. They are all "proud disciples" trained by the blood torture masters of the Shadow Intelligence Agency. They are proficient in all kinds of torture and punishment. It is said that they have recently been practicing a method called "Ling Chi" stuff.
If you don't want to talk to me, then I'll invite them in.?”
“Don't! I was just kidding.”
Major Ivankov smiled awkwardly. He observed the expression on 003's face and said:
“So, what kind of business is it??”
“It's a big business for Earl Baishan. You know, the Earl has a noble status. There are some things that are not suitable for him to come forward, so he needs to find a reliable agent. His servants have already applied for a trading company in Beifeng Castle. name, now we need a professional manager to help manage the business.
Since the main trading location is in the Kavhoka area, it is best to find someone with local connections and connections..
In every way, you are a perfect fit..”
003Shrugging, he took out a piece of paper and a pen and put them on the table next to him, and said:
“As long as you agree to join, someone will teach you how to operate and how to act..
We also helped you invest some money into the company, and you can also get dividends. Oh, by the way, you have to resign from your position in the army. You just said that there are many commanders who were marginalized by Marshal Heraclius just like you. Become?
Why not make them the first batch of target customers?.”
“Wait, I'm a little dizzy.”
Ivankov said with a pained face:
“I have never done business at all, why do you want me to be your manager? As for my brain, let alone making money, I will be blessed by the goddess of luck if I don’t lose. I long to get rich, but I know exactly how much I am capable of. I don’t believe in myself. How can you have so much confidence in me??
The most important thing is that you didn't explain clearly what this trading company was going to do.?”
“It doesn’t matter what you do, what matters is that the profits are high enough and the returns to shareholders are generous enough, even crazy..”
003He smiled, blew out a smoke ring to cover his face, and said:
“So you can understand that we are going to sell the Merman Pearls from the Misty Sea to Greene Island to make huge profits.”
“will this work?”
Ivankov said doubtfully:
“Let’s not talk about how you are going to establish a relationship with the sharks. It’s a long way from the Sea of Mists to Greene Island..”
“Oops, why don't you understand? As I said, it doesn’t matter what kind of business you do, it’s just an excuse to make others believe it. It seems that you are really not very good at doing business..”
003sigh and say:
“But that’s okay, a blank piece of paper is the best to draw on. Let’s not discuss this now. I just need you to give me an answer. Are you willing to join us??”
“I'll think about it.”
The major coughed and whispered:
“What about my gambling debts?.”
“ha? What gambling debt? How come I don't know?”
003With a gentle smile on his face, he stepped forward to help Major Ivankov untie the rope, took out an exquisite coat of arms of Booty Bay's platinum VIP customers from his pocket and stuffed it into the major's hand, saying:
“I only know that you made a lot of money doing business outside, became the most popular person in Booty Bay's customer base, and lived a wonderful life of having sex every day and night. There are so many women who are greedy for vanity and want to get involved with you. In this life, there are many local rich people who are eager to get rich and want you to guide them..
You will eventually become a business tycoon and a figure who will leave your name in history..
Ivankov, a true great man
Now, come with me, go through the onboarding process, and be patient with the training.
There will be the most powerful economists to teach you how to deal with customers, and the most professional accountants to help you manage this trading company that will surely thrive. You don't even need to personally participate in business activities..
You just need to make good use of your connections and relationships to keep climbing up..
I still remember that when we were in the tunnel, you always complained to me about your father and your half-brother. You said that your sister-in-law was a famous lady and looked down upon you..
Oh, how miserable, brother..
But don't worry, soon, they will be begging you with a different look..
I promise!”
“I'm a little scared.”
The major became even more uneasy as he put the cigarette butt under his feet and stamped it out. He stared at 003 and said:
“I don't think what you describe can happen to me. This is definitely not a pure business, maybe.”
“lie!”
003Making a gesture of silence, he took out the pistol from his waist and placed it on the table. It happened to occupy both sides of the table with the stacked papers and pens. He said:
“When you walk through this door, you have only one choice left. Ivankov, we don’t just have you as a candidate. There are so many frustrated people in the Kavhoka region. The reason why we choose you is Because I think you made some contribution to the fight against the Jackals..
I want to give you a hand.
But if you're not going to climb out of your own mess and accept this help, then really, I'm just going to keep it official..
However, you don’t have to worry. What a proletarian like you lost in this operation is just your shackles. Now put away your weakness.!
Come with me, someone is waiting for you.”
Colonel Ivankov glanced at the loaded pistol on the table, then at the closed door in front of him, and finally looked back at the chair to which he had just been tied..
He gritted his teeth and stepped forward to write his name on a piece of paper filled with nouns he couldn't understand. He followed 003 out of the basement and went up the stairs to the lobby on the first floor, which was being used by workers. Busily decorated, it seems to be a warehouse for a chamber of commerce..
A man wearing a believer's robe is sitting on a chair next to him, holding a copy of "Avalon Book of Nature" and reading it seriously. He is incompatible with the busy scene around him. At first glance, he is a person of status..
It wasn't until 003 brought Ivankov in front of him that Brother Crow, who was wearing the sacred emblem of the Goddess of Fortune on his chest, raised his head..
He pushed up his glasses and showed a gentle smile, looked at the desolate major in front of him, then rubbed his chin and said:
“Your image needs to be changed. Take off your military uniform and put on a dress uniform, tidy up your hair and style your beard..
Your demeanor also needs to change. Successful businessmen will not show such flattering smiles. When facing those who pray for wealth, you need to straighten your back and be as angry as a bell. The louder your voice, the truer your lies..
Finally, you need a new identity to say goodbye to the past and embrace the future.
Please tell me, Your Excellency, what is your name??”
“Ivankov, sir, my name is Ivankov.”
“That's not the case, raise your head!
Look more serious, make a sound from your belly, put your left hand on your chest to salute, and droop your right hand naturally. Imagine that you are standing in the ice palace introducing yourself to the wolf girl, tell me, who are you?!”
“Ivankov! I am”
“stop! Louder, think about how the most outstanding person you have ever met in your life introduces himself. Again, don't rush, think carefully, and then imitate him. Tell me, who are you??”
