"Qiangzi, are you alright?"
Liu Hui helped Zhang Qiang, who was slumped on the ground, to his feet and sighed deeply.
Every era has its gold diggers who want to sell themselves for a good price; Zhang Qiang was just unlucky.
"I...I'm fine."
Watching the girl's departing figure, Zhang Qiang felt completely drained of energy.
They've been dating for a few months, just out of the honeymoon phase, so there are still feelings involved.
"Wenqing, go order a few bottles of good wine. Let's have a good drink with Zhang Qiang tonight."
Wang Yang patted Zhang Qiang on the shoulder, and together with Liu Hui, helped Zhang Qiang up.
The brothers can't interfere in matters of the heart, so all we can do is drink until we drop.
Bring out as much good wine as you have.
"What happened?"
Gao Xin was a little worried, so she went to Wang Yang's side and looked him over from left to right. She breathed a sigh of relief when she found that nothing was wrong.
"Zhang Qiang got dumped and is in a bad mood, so I'll have a few drinks with him."
Wang Yang leaned close to Gao Xin's ear and informed her of the situation.
Generally, Wang Yang and his friends don't drink alcohol when there are girls present.
However, today is a special case, so we have to deal with it specially.
"I've called everyone here today because I have something important to say."
Before drinking, Wang Yang had to take care of something important.
Divide the shares.
Upon hearing Wang Yang's words, everyone who had just taken their seats sat up straight, and even Zhang Qiang, who had just broken up with his girlfriend, tried to perk himself up.
Wang Yang's statement must mean something big has happened.
"Chun'an Auto Repair Shop is now on the right track. In May, in just half a month, the net profit reached 200,000 yuan!"
Wang Yang waved his hand, and a bag of money landed on the dining table.
The bag was filled with dark blue banknotes, stacked high.
"Wow, how do you guys make so much money?"
Chung Simin was stunned. She looked around in disbelief and found that she was the only one who was shocked. Everyone else seemed to have known beforehand and just smiled slightly.
No, I made 200,000! Why aren't you guys excited?
Several brothers were involved throughout the process and knew in advance how much profit they could expect this month.
Gao Xin had already learned about this, and since her family could actually raise that much money, she was just happy for Wang Yang and didn't feel overly excited.
"Why are you all so calm? So I'm the only one who doesn't know?"
Chung Sze-man made a crying face, but no tears came out.
There was 100,000 yuan in cash right in front of her. Who could cry after seeing so much money?
"Minmin, it's okay. I just found out myself. I'll have Liu Hui buy you a big ring, with a diamond as big as a pigeon's egg!"
Gao Xin patted Zhong Simin's head and teased her.
Previously, it was Chung Sze-man who seized every opportunity to tease her, but now she finally has a chance to get back at Chung Sze-man.
"I already have a diamond ring, you can't afford to play football."
Chung Sze-man made a face, not taking the pressure seriously.
After their bickering, the atmosphere calmed down.
"There's a saying that goes, 'Even close brothers should keep clear accounts.' For the healthy development of the auto repair shop in the future, we need to divide the shares today."
Zhang Qiang's being dumped because he had no money made Wang Yang even more determined to divide the shares.
If Zhang Qiang knew exactly how much money he would receive, he might have been confident that he could afford the bride price, instead of dragging it out until now.
It was precisely because she was too embarrassed to ask Wang Yang that this incident occurred.
However, I did realize that she was a gold digger; it was just a matter of fate.
"Shares..."
The hearts of everyone present were instantly captivated by these two words.
When brothers start a business, the hardest thing to deal with is dividing the profits.
Asking for it directly feels a bit awkward; I'm afraid of losing face and ruining our brotherhood.
If they don't ask for help, they won't have any money to spend, putting them in a dilemma.
If you have a choice, it's best not to start a business with someone you have a good relationship with.
If it weren't for his brothers in his previous life being so supportive and helping him, he wouldn't have been able to catch his breath.
Otherwise, Wang Yang wouldn't have chosen to start a business with his brother, lest it affect their relationship.
"Read through this contract. If you have any objections, raise them. If you have no objections, proceed with this."
Wang Yang offered no explanation, but instead took out three contracts and handed them to the three men.
The initial investment was 7,000 yuan, with Wang Yang contributing 3,000 yuan, Liu Hui contributing 2,000 yuan, and Yang Wenqing and Zhang Qiang each contributing 1,000 yuan.
The first batch of business earned more than 30,000 yuan, but no money was distributed among the customers; all of it was used for investment and construction of the Chun'an Auto Repair Shop.
With the addition of 50,000 yuan in investment and equipment brought in by Wang Yang, this was the initial investment for Chun'an Auto Repair Shop.
Wang Yang was considered to be quite considerate of his brothers.
The shareholding structure did not include the value of the equipment; it was calculated based on a Ponzi scheme.
Liu Hui took 12%, Yang Wenqing and Zhang Qiang took 6%, and the remaining 76% was all in Wang Yang's hands.
What if Hong Kong businessmen want to expand their factories before entering the market?
Let them stay put.
The Hong Kong businessman's investment target was Wang Yang, not Chun'an Auto Repair Shop.
Wang Yang also plans to set up a local car manufacturing plant to take over the Mutian Motorcycle project, aiming for automobile production qualifications.
Naturally, we cannot allow Hong Kong businessmen to seize Wang Yang's command and decision-making power through capital after Wang Yang has grown his business.
Since it's business, no matter how good the relationship with Hong Kong businessmen seems on the surface, you still have to be wary of them behind the scenes.
As for the profit calculation method for auto repair shops, at the end of the year, 40% of the net profit is retained for the operation of the auto repair shop, and the rest is distributed according to the shareholding ratio.
It's still a small factory with not many industries, so distributing money doesn't need to be complicated; as long as everyone is satisfied, that's fine.
"I have no objection, Yang-ge."
Yang Wenqing was the first to speak up, picking up a pen and inkpad to write his name and affix his fingerprint.
Take 200,000 as an example. If 80,000 stays in the factory, then 6% of 120,000 is 7,200 yuan, which is equivalent to more than a year's salary for Yang Wenqing.
As someone working within the system, this substantial bonus allows him to dedicate more energy and resources to career advancement.
"I have no objection, Yang-ge."
Zhang Qiang had no objections either. He took the pen and inkpad, wrote his name on it, and stamped it with his fingerprint.
Zhang Qiang always felt that he hadn't done anything, and that the 1,000 yuan he invested was just a drop in the ocean compared to the 50,000 yuan that Wang Yang had brought in.
Therefore, even when he was short of money, Zhang Qiang was always too embarrassed to ask for it.
Now, Wang Yang not only took the initiative to propose a profit-sharing plan, but also deducted the major costs such as equipment and labor, which moved Zhang Qiang deeply.
It's important to understand that the entire auto repair shop was able to operate thanks to Wang Yang's efforts in managing relationships, planning, and providing technical support.
Wang Yang didn't use this resource as leverage to ask for more shares, because he didn't want to hurt his brother's feelings.
"Brother Yang, I have a problem with that..."
All eyes were on Liu Hui, who was expected to sign the document. However, Liu Hui said the last thing Wang Yang wanted to hear.
Offering suggestions means expressing dissatisfaction with Wang Yang's proposal.
Wang Yang has already made so many concessions, yet Liu Hui still raises objections, which is bound to leave a thorn in people's hearts.
Just as everyone was feeling uneasy, Liu Hui said something unexpected.
"I already have too many shares; I don't need that many."
