Chapter 51 Crazy Harvest Season
Li Zitao was in Club No. 22 when he received the news of the monk's return, listening to Ben's report. The two-month "get rich overnight" plan ended today.
"Boss, we are left with 9.13 percent of General Electric, 6 percent of American Steel, 27 percent of American Radio,
Standard Oil 7.03 percent, Bethlehem Steel 33 percent, Sears Roebuck 18.19 percent, American Telephone and Telegraph 3 percent. "
Li Zitao is more and more satisfied with Ben's report, which is simple and clear, and directly talks about the matter. The endless report is like an old lady's foot wrap, smelly and long, who wants to read it.
"The Bethlehem Steel you mentioned just now is the second largest steel company in the United States?" Li Zitao was a little curious. Shouldn't the company's operating conditions be affected?
"That's right, we only get 5 percent from the stock market, and the rest comes from Mr. Charles Schwab." Ben kept his words short, trying not to slap the BOSS in the face, he had had enough of that frustration.
"Charles Schwab, the founder of Bethlehem? The just-resigned chairman of the Iron and Steel Federation?" Li Zitao was a little panicked, and his face was serious. Is this the founder who is about to run away?
"Yes, Charles Schwab's private life... well... it's a bit expensive." Ben expressed in as tactful a tone as possible.
To put it bluntly, Charles Schwab spent his adult life enjoying all kinds of extravagance. He spent a lot of money in Hollywood and had no money to sell stocks to cash out.
"Understood." Seeing Ben's twisted face, Li Zitao understood that the prodigal sons of the rich generation earn their own money and lose themselves. There is no shortage of such people in any era.
"By the way, how is the acquisition of the... company that sells copper mines?" Li Zitao was a little ashamed, he even forgot the name of the company.
The corners of his eyes twitched. Ben tried his best to control his violent emotions, and said in a low voice: "FSC, currently holds 41% of the shares. We are fighting for it. In addition, the company's main mining product is sulfur, not copper."
"What's going on? Didn't you say you want to buy a copper mine?" Li Zitao asked.
"...Boss, the money is in your private account, it's time for you to inject capital into the company." There was a sentence of mmp in Ben's heart, and he said it ten times silently.
"Ahem." This made her mother very embarrassed, and Li Zitao pretended to be casual and began to blame: "Why didn't Jesse report it, it seems that he needs to be trained."
Ben has no interest in the scene where the BOSS trains the little elk, and he needs to continue reporting on his work.
"The closing plan has been successfully completed, and the current cleared income is 483 million, BOSS."
Hearing what Ben said, Li Zitao immediately winked his eyes in a funny way: "Ben, what a pity."
"Including the previous BOSS needs, and the 20 million that was drawn from the stock market, the total income this time..." Ben grinned, and said with excitement in his eyes: "503 million dollars."
"Oh, no." Li Zitao covered his face pretending to be in pain, but his expression was full of excitement, "500 million is still a US dollar, and it is now 1929, haha, I posted..."
After the excitement, it is natural to share the spoils... Ahem, the dividend meeting.
12 percent of 500 million, $60 million, Ben, Graun, Pavel, Matton, Jonny, Saniel, Mahathir, Michelle... oh, and Bob.
The dividend of 9 people is 666.666...
With a wave of his hand, Li Zitao gave each person an extra 40,000 US dollars as a year-end reward, making up 6.7 million US dollars, which caused cheers in the office.
"Okay, next, it's your family time. The car is already waiting at the door. You can decide who to send first." Li Zitao handed them the checks respectively, crossed his hands on the table and smiled, "I hope to see you again." when,
You can drive your own car. "
"Boss, you are such a stingy boss." Sanil complained jokingly.
"En?" Frowning, Li Zitao stretched out his hand to grab the check, Sanil hurriedly ran away with a smile, and everyone also packed their bags and saluted to go home.
"Ben, don't you really need a car?" Mahathir said hypocritically in two cars packed with 8 people at the entrance of the club.
Bob's check would be sent to the NYSE by him, and it was enviable that this lucky bastard got such a large sum of money just for passing the news.
"Go away, do I want to sit on the roof?" Amidst Ben's laughter and cursing, the car drove towards the airport, and Ben also quickened his pace, heading towards the direction he remembered.
The weather is a bit cold, and the bitter cold wind in Chicago in November, coupled with the humidity brought by Lake Michigan, makes it difficult for people who have just arrived here to adapt.
But Ben didn't mind at all, with a ruddy complexion and bright eyes, he ran towards the house with fast steps as if he could float.
2 months and 8 days, he has not seen Joanna for 2 months and 8 days, 'Damn, I almost forgot her taste. '
Seeing the door of the house from a distance, Ben ran a little faster, breathing heavily, and stood at the door of the house spraying white mist.
thump thump.
Ben knocks on the door, ready to surprise his beloved wife.
Ka~
"Who is it?" The door opened, and looking at Joanna, who was holding a baby in her arms and full of maternal love, she thought, "The surprise came too suddenly." '
...
"What are you thinking, haha..." At night, after the passionate madness, Joanna hugged Ben, still unable to stop laughing.
As long as she thought of her husband's complexion when he first came back, it changed from red to white, and then from white to green like a steam engine, and his eyeballs were like catapulting balls, Joanna couldn't control her emotions.
The daytime child is the second child of the new neighbors Paul and his wife. They just moved here and brought the child to say hello, just in time to run into Ben who came back.
"I just miss you so much, baby." Ben said with his arms around his wife in embarrassment.
Thinking of the stunned look on his face at that time, the leather bag in his hand fell to the ground, and the dumb guy standing there stupidly, he wanted to change his face.
If Li Zitao knew what he was thinking, he would definitely tell him; "To them, going to Thailand and changing their face is as easy as putting on a mask."
"Honey, is your work over yet?" Joanna asked quietly, putting her face on Ben's chest after joking.
If she hadn't been talking frequently during this period, Joanna would definitely choose to call the police. How can there be a job that requires freedom of imprisonment? This is the United States.
"It's over." Ben smiled easily, then lifted the quilt and moved to the side of the bed, picking up the leather bag still on the floor.
"Baby, from now on, it's yours." Ben took out a folded check from his purse, and handed it to Joanna with a smile on his face.
"Let me see..." Joanna opened the check casually. When she saw the series of 0s on it, her complexion instantly became extremely exciting. She covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Oh, my, god~~"
The same exclamation happened in the next few days in the other 8 families. This huge dividend made 9 families feel the hot spring breeze in the cold winter.
Of course, District 22 is the place with the strongest feeling of spring. Li Zitao, who got up early in the morning, is sitting at the dining table, eating freshly baked cheese bread.
The room was quiet, only the sound of Li Zitao chewing.
Suddenly, there was a soft 'squeak' sound under the table, as if someone was instigating a popsicle.
"Teeth, pay attention to your teeth, it hurts when you scrape, o... o understand?" Li Zitao tasted the food while enjoying the somewhat unfamiliar service from the little elk.
Your skill proficiency of +1+1+1+1...
The little elk was sitting on the mat with obsessive eyes, in a lost state, just mechanically brushing his proficiency.

K.O.
"Another pleasant morning."
After taking a shower, he looked at himself 22cm tall with thick wrists, Li Zitao opened the door and shouted to the opposite side, "The meeting is on!"
This kind of feeling is a bit like when I was a child in the countryside in my previous life. When someone had something to do, he opened his mouth and uttered a voice, which could be heard in half the village. "It seems to be the same now."
Seeing people coming out of every household, poking their heads and smiling at him, Li Zitao also smiled and waved hello to everyone.
In front of a kitchen that looked like a bread trailer, all the owners gathered here. There were 7 great guys standing in the kitchen, each in a different position, with different tools in front of them.
"The name of this game is - speed." As Li Zitao clapped his hands, the kitchen, which was still still just now, started to move.
The first one starts with frying meat patties. The meat patties sizzling on the discus stall, the gas below will heat the iron plate to a suitable 400F, side dishes, pickles and chopped onions.
Round hamburger patties, No. 1 and No. 2, alternate every 30 seconds. New patties enter the oven, and delicious, hot hamburgers are released.
Special butter spray machine, rotating disc, bread, meat pie, pickled cucumber, minced onion, cream...
Buckle up the bread, wrap it in greaseproof paper with golden arches, pass through the burger slide rail, and the burger with the mixed aroma of bread and meatloaf is out of the oven.
"Each burger only takes 30 seconds. Speed, temperature, and coordination are all indispensable. Any confusion in any link will be a disaster for the entire kitchen."
Looking at the 7 people in the kitchen, if there is a "crazy hamburger dance", the hamburger trays alternately change positions, one high and one low, and the perfect fit, all the owners are shocked.
"This, this is like a compact and error-free machine." Someone praised in an incredible tone.
"Yes, this is a sophisticated machine." And a money-making machine.
"Uncle Li, what's its name?" Yanyan leaned forward excitedly and asked.
"...McDonald's." Li Zitao looked back at the kitchen, full of pride.
