Mr. Melancholy Wants To Live A Peaceful Life

CHAPTER 70

Hearing Huan Zixu's quote, Yu Hua began to seriously consider this marketing director. He knew of Huan Zixu's excellence in mental abilities, and he was aware that Director Huan was a person who could easily assimilate into the real world. But he hadn't expected that Huan Zixu's marketing talents would be far higher than he had imagined. This was a talent worth keeping. Though his price had to be cut down.

"You don't think that commission is too high, Director Huan?" Yu Hua said. "If you sign a bet-on agreement with the advertising company and your bet fails, we'll have to bear the loss."

"With me here, we won't fail," Huan Zixu said proudly.

"And Director Lian will have to bear responsibility for the quality of the products after sale. We can't let him do that work for noting," Yu Hua said, smiling faintly. 

"My proposal is for the company to take seven parts of the excess 20%. Of the remaining three parts, Director Lian will take one, and you'll take two."

Huan Zixu laughed coldly. "That's daring of you to say. Do you believe that I'll keep you from getting any bit of that money, do an under the table deal and stuff it all in my own pockets?"

"Either you take two parts or no one gets any of this money," Yu Hu said carelessly. 

"Even if you don't negotiate, if the company does enough marketing, we can still make quite a bit of money. But you won't have anything to do with that money. You'll continue to receive your 1,500 yuan base salary."

If Huan Zixu could earn this money, then he temporarily wouldn't need to use this opportunity to launder money, because they would have earned enough. If Huan Zixu didn't step in, Yu Hua would personally fix up the accounts and make a few changes, transferring a million of the hundred million from the hundred million secret account into his own account. He would have the money to pay back his mortgage.

No matter what, Yu Hua couldn't lose, while Huan Zixu was out of luck. He had to take either the 1,500 or the two parts. There was no room for discussion. When two forces confront each other, momentum is the most important thing. Huan Zixu had lost from the very beginning. He met Yu Hua's eyes for a moment. He firmly believed that this person would rather do as much damage to himself as to his enemy than let himself be taken advantage of.

Huan Zixu thought of Feng Kui still waiting for him at the Protectors' base and took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down. He needed a suitable place to take Feng Kui after earning the Protection Organization's trust. He compromised: "That's doable, but first you have to rent a two bedroom, one living room apartment for me. I won't stay in the studio."

"I'll take the advance rent out of your commission. If you can't sell what you promised, you'll work me for free for half a year to repay it." As he spoke, Yu Hua's fingers flew over the computer. In less than five minutes, he had typed up a contract between the company and Huan Zixu.

"Fine, I'll let you off easy this time." Huan Zixu carefully read the contract then fiercely signed his name.

Lian Yufan, looking on: "..."

Lian Yufan was rational, a brilliant student, and he had taken part in quite a bit of combat during his trial period. But he had never seen the mutual deception of society. He was a little dumbfounded. He felt that during the dialogue just now, there had been the light of flashing blades. Yu Hua and Huan Zixu had seemed to be smiling, but in reality, blood had been drawn —Huan Zixu's blood.

Seeing Huan Zixu looking glum, Lian Yufan said in spite of himself, "I'm not short on money. You can have my one part."

Huan Zixu took Lian Yufan to another cubicle, avoiding Yu Hua. Quietly, he said, "I know you aren't short on money. You may not have any opportunity to spend money in your whole life, but the money isn't only for you. When you hire people for quality testing and outside legal assistance, are you planning to make them work for free? I know you're capable of making them work for you for free, but while you can do it once or twice, you'll still have to collaborate with them afterwards. Who's going to work overtime for nothing? Money owed has to be paid. Yu Hua is the one who ought to be paying this money, though I can see he isn't planning on it."
