Chapter 1276: Xiao Dong becomes a shareholder

On board the gambling ship.

Inside the VIP cabin.

The door opened. Zhang Longjuan dragged a big suitcase in. Dong Xuebing followed behind. He was dragging a suitcase, too. Shen Xiaoyan and Shen Xiaomei dragged two suitcases each into the room. They went out again to bring all the suitcases into the cabin.

Over two hundred million USD.

The cabins living room was filled with suitcases.

Dong Xuebing had a sense of satisfaction when he saw the suitcases. This was not a wasted trip, as he had done what he came for.

The door closed. Shen Xiaomei and Shen Xiaoyan were sweating and exhausted.

Zhang Longjuan was tired, too. She sat on the couch and laughed. Its so heavy.

Shen Xiaoyan smiled. Yes. It is over two hundred million USD. I have never seen so much money in my life.

Zhang Longjuan laughed. I have not seen it.

Dong Xuebing replied. Your asset is over a few hundred million USD. How can you not see it before?

Zhang Longjuan laughed and asked. Will you withdraw two hundred million USD in cash for no reason? This is my first time seeing so much cash.

Dong Xuebing thought about it and laughed.

Shen Xiaomei was not concerned about money. She looked at Dong Xuebing. Mr. Dong. Theres no one around now. Tell us what happened.

Dong Xuebing feigned ignorance. What? What happened?

Shen Xiaomei said. The slot machine. How did you hit the jackpot?

Dong Xuebing cleared his throat. I said before. I got good luck.

Who are you trying to fool? Shen Xiaomei stared at Dong Xuebing. Tell us how you did it.

Dong Xuebing smiled. Its luck. I won 100 bets of the lottery jackpot before. The slot machine is nothing.

Shen Xiaomei:

Shen Xiaoyan:

The twins did not ask after seeing Dong Xuebing did not want to tell them.

Dong Xuebing could not tell them the truth.

How did he hit the jackpot at the slot machine? Its not luck. Who can be so lucky? Dong Xuebing started planning after he heard someone won the jackpot on the 3rd of last month. He asked others and found out the strength used to pull the level would not affect the machine. Thats when he knew he could hit the jackpot. He covered the panels showing the three pictures because he did not want others to see the picture changed. When using REVERSE, the pictures will change to the pictures on that day. He calculated the days from the 3rd until now and returned the machine to that day. Someone said the machine was new and was brought out to replace a faulty one. The person who hit the jackpot also used one chip to win it.

How can he tell this to the rest?

Dong Xuebing could only say it was luck, and whether they believed him was up to them. He will not reveal anything.

The ship broadcasted an announcement.

The ship will be docking in forty minutes. The guests can get ready to disembark. They also invited everyone to come again.

Dong Xuebing stretched. We are finally going back.

Shen Xiaoyan looked at the boxes. The four of us could not bring back these suitcases. Ms. Zhang, I will call someone to fetch us.

Zhang Longjuan laughed. Let me do it.

She made a call to arrange for a bigger car to fetch them.

After Zhang Longjuan ended her call, she looked at the three of them. I want to thank you all for today.

Shen Xiaoyan waved her hand. You dont need to thank us both.

Shen Xiaomei added. We did not do anything.

Zhang Longjuan said. Lets discuss the money. How are we

I said earlier that my sister and I will not take the money. Mr. Dong won the money. You should discuss it with him. Shen Xiaoyan said. My sister and I are going back to pack.

Shen Xiaomei followed her sister out of the room.

Only Dong Xuebing and Zhang Longjuan remained in the room.

Dong Xuebing said to Zhang Longjuan after the door was closed. Sis Zhang, I am not taking anything. I dont need so much money, and discussing it is unnecessary. You can use it for your company. You said you needed two hundred million USD to tide your company over. We have over two hundred million USD now, which should not be a problem. You helped me a lot when I went to the US. Lets not talk about this again.

Zhang Longjuan laughed. This is not a small amount. Over two hundred million USD is equivalent to around fourteen hundred million RMB. It is much more than your lottery winnings.

Dong Xuebing refused. I dont need it. Sister Yan and Sister Mei might not know, but you know I work in the government. One hundred million RMB worth of assets had gotten me into trouble. I had been investigated by the Commission for Discipline Inspection countless times. I will be in deep trouble if I bring back a few more hundred million RMB. Even if the State Security helped me, it would still affect me.

Furthermore, how am I going to spend this much money? I spent over ten thousand RMB this month. When can I finish spending a few hundred million RMB? You should keep it.

Zhang Longjuan beckoned him over. I will not reject your goodwill, but I did not help anyway. I cannot accept the money.

Dong Xuebing replied. I cannot take it, and I cannot bring it back.

All right. Zhang Longjuan patted the back of Dong Xuebings hand. I will bring back the money to clear my companys debts. Two hundred million USD might not be enough, but over two hundred million is enough to tide my company over. She paused and said. But I will not accept the money from you. These are your money. I will treat it like you had bought a stake in my company. You will be my companys shareholder.

Dong Xuebing shook his head. I worked for the government. Even my family members, let alone me, are not advisable to do business.

Zhang Longjuan said. I know I cannot transfer the shares to you. If you trust me, we can have a verbal agreement. I will give you dividends every year. You can let me know when you need money. What do you think?

Ah, you should just keep it.

This is a big amount. I cannot accept it.

Dong Xuebing was helpless. Xu Yan told him Zhang Longjuan would not accept his money when he said he wanted to help her settle her companys financial issues. She understands her former classmate well. We are life-and-death friends. Stop rejecting it.

Zhang Longjuan was amused. Other matters are delicate, but I am firm about this.

Dong Xuebing looked at her. Didnt you say you will not sell your companys shares?

I do not want to sell my shares to my family members. They wanted 51% of the company, and they will take over my company. I will not sell it to them. I did not consider selling my shares to others because I feel uncomfortable with outsiders around. Haha Zhang Longjuan looked at Dong Xuebing with her sexy eyes. But I dont mind if it is you. Haha.

Why are you fine with me?

Because you are handsome. I like handsome boys. Haha.

You are teasing me again.

All right. I will stop joking. Just listen to me. As for how much shares hmm let me calculate. Zhang Longjuan took a pen and paper and started scribbling on them. She put down the pen. I calculated. It is easy to calculate because I own 100% of the company. I will give you 20% shares for the money.

Dong Xuebing paused for a second. 20%?

Zhang Longjuan laughed. Do you think it is too little?

No. Its too much. Dong Xuebing replied. Your company is doing well in the US. I think it is worth over a billion RMB. It will be worth more if it is listed. The money is not enough to get 20%.

Zhang Longjuan replied. This is not the way to calculate. Its hard to explain. But even if you are correct, I need this amount to save my company. My family demanded 51% of my company for investing 400 million USD.

But it is still a lot.

Its not a lot. Its settled.

1 to 2% is enough.The most update n0vels are published on novelenglish.net . Firᴇ(.)nᴇt

Just listen to me. Enough talk. Haha This will be our company from now onwards. I will call you to update you and seek your opinions on company matters.

Are you joking with me? I dont know anything about business, and I dont understand the jargon you use. You should decide about the company matters, and I will not get involved. I know my standards. Dong Xuebing is still feeling his way around in the government sector. He had no time to learn about business.

Haha ok. I will decide everything. But I will still inform you if there are any major decisions. In other companies, 20% shareholder is considered a major shareholder.

Do what you like.

Ok. You are a shareholder of my company now. Lets have a toast. Heres to my business partner!
