A century-old wealthy family that rose from Shanghai

Chapter 36 Countermeasures

Brand new rickshaws were lined up in the open space outside the Changjiang Rickshaw Company, and all 180 rickshaw drivers were present.

The lively scene shocked the people in Fangua Lane and its surrounding areas.

There were people taking photos at the scene, and Chen Guangliang invited people from "Wang Kai Photography" to take photos as a souvenir for the future.

The task of training rickshaw drivers was also handed over to He Xiangdong and others.

Although he decided to take back the "profit from the goods", he still had to train the drivers to avoid causing disgust among the customers.

"Set off"

Following Chen Guangliang's loud shout, sixty rickshaws filed out of Fangua Lane and began to pick up passengers from all over the concession.

Chen Guangliang started with only three rickshaws and completed this feat in less than three months.

It's developing so fast!
Of course, Chen Guangliang does not feel "proud". After all, his average equity is only about 40%; not to mention, he is now heavily in debt.

Therefore, Chen Guangliang was very cautious and tried to be careful and meticulous in everything so as not to make any mistakes.

"Boss Chen, Mr. Li, congratulations, you bought a lot of new cars."

"It's Inspector Gao. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person!"

Seeing Inspector Gao coming alone, Chen Guangliang did not let down his guard.

He was politely invited to the office, and Li Chao also accompanied him to receive him.

Serving tea and simple greetings.

Inspector Gao then said, "Boss Chen, I came here to ask you something. Is that convenient?"

Chen Guangliang immediately said: "Please speak."

Inspector Gao asked, "I heard that the Changjiang Car Company is raising funds to buy rickshaws. Mr. Chen, are there any rickshaw drivers among the shareholders who have suddenly become rich?"

Chen Guangliang laughed, then said lightly: "Inspector Gao, rickshaw drivers can become rich overnight. You really don't understand their extreme poverty! There are a total of 90 rickshaw drivers participating in the share offering this time. Each driver only subscribed to 20 yuan, which is already their life savings."

Talking about the 'rickshaw driver', Chen Guangliang was full of sympathy.

Inspector Gao said deliberately with shame: "I see, I was talking nonsense."

Changing the subject, he asked curiously, "Sixty rickshaws, and only raising 1800 yuan for the shares. How did Boss Chen pull it off?"

Li Chao said from the side: "This matter involves the private affairs of our Traffic Department. Inspector Gao is not going to hold us accountable, right?"

Your police station can extort money from the lower classes to make extra money, but our Traffic Department cannot set up a slush fund.

Inspector Gao quickly said, "Mr. Li, you misunderstood. I meant that even if the Traffic Department produced the licenses, those sixty rickshaws would still cost 6000 yuan. Boss Chen's tactics are so clever, I'd like to learn from him. Maybe I can quit my job and start my own business one day."

Seeing Inspector Gao's beating around the bush, Chen Guangliang knew exactly what was going on, so he said, "Of course I have to use a bank to run my business. Otherwise, where would I find so much money? So, I borrowed all my money from the Shanghai Commercial and Savings Bank. Inspector Gao, don't be fooled by the large number of rickshaws at the Changjiang Car Dealership; they are actually a pile of debts."

Inspector Gao then said, "I've learned that being able to borrow money is a skill. Learn from me!"

At this point, his doubts were dispelled and he could go back to report.

But before Inspector Gao left, he brought up another matter: "Boss Chen, Wang's Rickshaw Company is selling 20 rickshaws. Are you interested?"

Damn it, you still haven't given up! Chen Guangliang chuckled and said, "I'm interested, but I can't come up with the money right now." He also changed the subject and said, "Could it be that Inspector Gao can be the client of this business?"

Inspector Gao didn't know what he meant, and didn't want to reveal his purpose, so he just said, "Well, I'll ask for Wang's Car Dealership. After all, the boss is away right now!"

At this point, he knew that Chen Guangliang was flawless, so he decided to let the matter go.

After all, judging from the current situation, Chen Guangliang has a greater future, while Wang Chengyun is just a disabled person.

But what Chen Guangliang said next surprised Inspector Gao.

Chen Guangliang said, "If Inspector Gao wants to get rich, I have a plan. Do you want to hear it?"

Inspector Gao thought Chen Guangliang was also willing to cooperate with him to invest in rickshaws, so he said happily: "Boss Chen, please speak!"

Seeing he'd taken the bait, Chen Guangliang said, "Inspector Gao now has the Wang family's trust. Why not get a power of attorney? It says you'll be in charge of these 20 rickshaws for 5000 taels. Then, Inspector Gao can let me manage them, and I'll pay the 5000 taels back to the Wang family over 10 months. That way, Inspector Gao gets 50% of the profits, and the rest goes to me."

Inspector Gao was stunned when he heard this, and then his heart went cold.

He didn't believe that Wang's current predicament was not due to Chen Guangliang's efforts.

Now, Chen Guangliang wants to kill them all!

Li Chao tempted him, "Inspector Gao, the Wang family didn't lose anything in this matter. They got 5000 yuan anyway, just in installments. On the other hand, you will get a long-term income. After ten months, you can earn 250 yuan per month. And let me tell you, the value of rickshaw license plates will increase significantly in the future."

At this time, Inspector Gao's mind was full of the monthly income of 250 oceans. Isn't this much more profitable than running errands for Wang's?
"Does Boss Chen mean what he says?"

Chen Guangliang extended his hand and said, "From now on, we'll be friends. I love making fortunes with friends. But, can Inspector Gao really gain Wang's trust?"

He said the last sentence on purpose.

Inspector Gao said, "Of course I am sure!"

With the IQ of Wang Chengyun's wife Li Yan, he can definitely beat her.

After sending Inspector Gao away, Chen Guangliang said, "As usual, you still get half of the shares!"

Li Chao looked at Chen Guangliang. Chen Guangliang thought that he was dissatisfied with the share and felt a pang in his heart.

But although Li Chao is the second boss in name, he is not actually involved in the direct management of Changjiang Car Dealership, and a half-tenths share is already a lot.

"I feel guilty about half of it, but I was wondering, you have a very clear understanding of human nature. How did you know that Inspector Gao would turn against us?"

I see. It’s okay as long as you’re not dissatisfied with the distribution of benefits.

Chen Guangliang said, "I tried it. I didn't lose anything. I just don't know why human nature is so vulnerable!" He added, "Fortunately, the people around me are genuine and share my values. I'm lucky."

Li Chao said thoughtfully: "What kind of person is this? What kind of friends does he make!"

"makes sense"

Take Li Chao for example. When Chen Guangliang first entered the Traffic Department, everyone else ignored him, but Li Chao was the only one willing to receive him. When Chen Guangliang encountered setbacks (he initially heard that the license plate was fixed), Li Chao provided another channel.

As for Inspector Gao, Chen Guangliang knew that he was greedy, so he was just taking advantage of him.

If he could "cheat" Wang's 50 rickshaws this time, Chen Guangliang would only need to arrange for their management and he would get 5% of the shares (including Li Chao's %) for free.
