Chapter 60 - 60 60 I Am the Boss Too

60: Chapter 60 I Am the Boss Too 60: Chapter 60 I Am the Boss Too “How about twenty percent?” Guo Anyan stretched out two fingers to gesture.

“Twenty percent?

Are you sure?

I can supply a huge amount of jade and gold, a very substantial quantity.”

Just twenty percent, that’s not even worth it compared to selling it as I do now.

Although having channels would make things safer and less troublesome for me, I’m not a fool—I know I’m not just a big dupe.

A thought struck Guo Anyan—was that offer indeed too little?

With this in mind, Guo Anyan gritted his teeth, “If that’s the case, I will increase it a bit, thirty percent—that’s my limit.

Even if you go to someone else, you won’t get an offer like this.”

Seemingly worried that Zhao Guang might not believe him, Guo Anyan continued, “Moreover, with a thirty percent share for you, I myself will hold at most fifty percent.

The rest will have to be allocated to other people.

And when we go public in the future, it’ll probably get diluted more.”

Going public?

Well, that does seem to make some sense.

Too bad, Zhao Guang himself had one too many secrets; he was somewhat averse to the idea of going public.

But forget it since it’s other people’s companies going public, it has nothing to do with me.

It’s just that this percentage is a little too small.

After all, if it weren’t so troublesome, I could support a company like this myself.

“I will give you thirty percent of the company shares and fifty percent of the profits from your goods minus the costs—how does that sound?”

So the goods I bring aren’t included, Zhao Guang realized.

This seemed a bit too generous to him.

While he mulled over it quietly, he gave a slight nod: “Okay, a win-win deal—it’s settled.”

Indeed, a win-win meant winning twice for himself.

Earning a share in the cost and then another in the sales.

As for the cost, it was just some spices and chili oil.

Compared to these things, one could say the cost was negligible.

“Then good, let’s sign the contract.” The company had its lawyers, and the contract was quickly drafted.

The signing of the agreement went smoothly, without any complications arising.

After all, the goods were in Zhao Guang’s hands—if they offended him, the consequences could be severe.

“Si Yu, go send off Xiao Zhao.” In just a short time, the form of address had changed.

“No need, Uncle Guo, I can go back by myself.

I still have some things to take care of.”

At this moment, Zhao Guang was still pondering the company matters; now that he had become a supplier, he could no longer involve himself in private dealings.

Everything had to follow the proper channels, which would inevitably require company-to-company interaction.

I do have a company, but dealing with such things, I really don’t have that much time.

Sure enough, I need to find an assistant.

“By the way, sell a batch of jade rough for me, but not the good stuff.

I also need a batch of cutting tools.”

“No worries, we have cutting tools right here.

As for jade rough, we’ll need to buy that from the south.

Aren’t you going to make a trip yourself?”

“No, I don’t need the good stuff.

Something cheaper will do.”

The two men shared a secretive smile.

After declining Guo Siyu’s offer to accompany him, Zhao Guang left on his own.

Once Zhao Guang had left, Guo Siyu returned to the office and signaled for the others to leave.

The previously silent Guo Siyu finally spoke up, “What do you mean by giving away shares?

When you started this on your own, wasn’t it to get away from others’ constraints?”

“Heh, is it the same?

Those wastes in the family are trouble when they get involved, but it’s different with this guy.”

“Indeed, Zhao Guang can bring in a lot, but is it necessary to do so?”

Guo Anyan looked at his daughter and sighed, “Silly girl, don’t you understand?

Xiao Zhao can bring in so much gold and jade—who wouldn’t he be able to cooperate with?

If we don’t give something up, others will, and how could we compete then?”

Guo Siyu opened her mouth, understanding the issue but feeling somewhat dissatisfied.

“Giving him a share means we can earn more—don’t squabble over small profits.”

Seeing Guo Siyu’s somewhat dissatisfied look, Guo Anyan felt somewhat helpless.

His daughter was indeed quick to learn and competent at work, but it seemed she had not yet developed a broader vision.

“Tell me, now that we have so much stock, what should be our next move?”

Before Guo Siyu could answer, Guo Anyan continued, “Next step is to expand.

We’ve only been influential locally in Zhou City, and even there, not greatly so.

But with all these goods, we can open shops in other cities.

In just one or two years, we can expand our influence over the entire province without a problem.”

Guo Siyu’s mouth fell open; she hadn’t considered this before.

When it used to come to external assistance, the first thing Guo Siyu thought of was banks.

It seems, then, that Zhao Guang is even more useful than a bank to them.

“Got it now?

If we manage to expand our shops across the entire province, those in the family will have to listen to us.

If we can expand nationwide, they’d be clamoring to curry favor with us.”

Whenever Guo Anyan thought of these family members, he became quite agitated, having been annoyed by them since childhood.

“I see, but what’s the deal with those jade rough stones?”

“Ha, I thought you would have caught on.

Xiao Zhao is much more cautious than you are.

Jade comes from stones.

As long as you have the rough stones, no matter how much you produce, no one will question it.”

After all, these are originally stones, but even stones need to have some provenance.

“Xiao Zhao must have backers, not just internationally, but domestically as well.

Still, those connections can’t be too public, so he has to be careful.

Trading stones for stones—who can argue with that, as if people can’t be lucky?”

“Is that even possible?

I thought his capabilities were great, but it looks like this is all there is to it.”

“Don’t talk nonsense; it’s precisely because his influence is so great that it cannot be exposed.”

Guo Siyu appeared thoughtful but did not delve deeper.

“So what’s next?

We can’t give away more shares, can we?

And you haven’t mentioned the amber—is there nothing to say about it?” Guo Siyu bluntly changed the subject.

“New products need designers; we don’t have any, so we need to prepare first.”

“And as for your next steps, it’s up to you.

It’s most suitable for you to draw in such a young person.”

Guo Siyu fumed, “You promised my mother that I’d make my own romantic decisions.”

“Of course, of course, but it wouldn’t hurt to interact more.

Zhao Guang doesn’t seem too bad—maybe you’ll like him if you see him more.”

“Impossible, absolutely impossible.

How could I fall for such an undignified man?”
