Chapter 476: Promoting the Worthy Without Avoiding Relatives

~8 min read 1,497 words

When Li Ye returned home, Fu Yiruo just put down the phone.

"Oh brother, if you came back a minute earlier, Mom just called from Prussia and wanted to talk to you about something!"

"What's the matter? Is it important?"

"It's not important anymore," Fu Yiruo said: "Mother asked me to tell you that things went very smoothly, and in a few days she will fly from Europe to Japan."

"Mother also said that the security in Japan is better, let you notify Mr. Luo, no need to hire so many bodyguards..."

Fu Yiruo reported to Li Ye on behalf of her mother, one by one, quite detailed.

"Okay, I know, go to sleep!"

Li Ye let Fu Yiruo return to her room, and then dialed Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng's phone.

"Hey, Brother Peng, are you asleep?"

"No, I'm playing cards with Qianshan and the others!"

Li Ye said: "Okay, after I get the list, I will let Grandpa check it."

Li Ye smiled and explained: "What else can I do? Do business, of course. Our business is getting bigger and bigger. We said at the beginning that we want to go abroad."

"So now we have to start cultivating manpower. Otherwise, when we do business overseas, we won't be able to deal with local hooligans and bullies."

Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng was silent for a moment, and then said to Li Ye: "I know, then I will discuss it with Uncle Hong, and I will give you the list tomorrow."

No matter how much money it costs, we have to cultivate it ourselves, and we have to cultivate it greatly.

"Playing cards?" Li Ye asked with a light smile: "How big is it? Three yuan or five yuan?"

"As for the requirement of cultural level, there is no other way. If you don't even recognize abcd, isn't it hard to learn a foreign language?"

"Yes, yes, yes, we must let the private secretary check it. How much money does a person have to spend!"

Li Ye listened to Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng's complaints, as if he heard the wailing of a poor student.

So Li Ye smiled and said: "Human effort is the key! Find a few teachers in Beijing to teach first, and then send them overseas to talk to locals every day. Can they still not learn?"

"Also have to learn foreign languages! With their level of not being able to distinguish a, bo, ci, de, how can they learn English?"

As Li Ye's stall gets bigger and bigger, the expansion period of development is coming soon, and in the next ten years, the changes in the world situation can be described as earth-shaking.

"Know, know, Xiao Ye, you called, it must be something, right?"

Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng was stunned on the other side of the phone, subconsciously thinking that Li Ye wanted to take people to fight, but thought it was wrong.

"Hmm, there is indeed something," Li Ye said briefly: "You discuss with Uncle Hong tomorrow, select a dozen or so retired soldiers who are clean, filial to their parents,"

"Have more brothers and sisters at home, and have a higher cultural level, and then hand the list to me."

"Hmm?"

It is estimated that Jin

"Hey, hey, hey," Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng immediately said with displeasure: "Xiao Ye, are you testing me again? We aren't playing for money; we're just sticking slips of paper and drinking beer. I remember those 'Three-Five' prohibitions of yours!"

"Heh, if it were really just three or five yuan, it wouldn't matter, but gambling is a bottomless pit; it's hard to control."

"Xiao Ye, what are you trying to do? Why are you even asking for educational qualifications?"

The decline of Japan was a financial feast for financial capital, while the sudden collapse of the Soviet Union to the north was even more like a large-scale jungle game.

By that time, the Li Ye consortium, having been fattened by the Japanese market, would inevitably have to test its teeth to see how much of a benefit it could bite off.

Therefore, a dozen or so retired soldiers were just the first step in Li Ye's security force.

Li Ye slept very well that night and, upon waking early in the morning, thought about following Xiao Yu's instructions to have a good sleep-in.

It was a pity that the sky had only just brightened! The sound of cars began to ring out outside the courtyard gate, and it wasn't just one car; several came one after another.

Li Ye couldn't sleep anymore, put on his clothes, and came out; looking through the crack in the gate,

Good heavens, Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng, Ma Qianshan, Wang Jianqiang, Jiang Hong, and Wang Qiangdong—even Old Song had come.

【This old fellow, is he really this fast?】

Li Ye opened the courtyard gate and asked strangely: "You lot, are you all coming to my place for the morning market?"

Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng laughed: "Hehehe, better early than late! I told them to gather at my place at eight, but they arrived at my place last night; we argued all night without reaching a conclusion, so we decided to just come to you to make the decision!"

Li Ye couldn't help but laugh: "Is it that urgent? Then hurry and come in!"

The group entered the main room; Wang Qiangdong and Ma Qianshan poured water and made tea as if they were at home, while Li Ye brought out melon seeds and fruit, quickly setting up the atmosphere of a tea party.

Li Ye first asked Jiang Hong: "Uncle Hong, quite a few people have come from our hometown over the past two years. I'm not clear on their specific situations, so I have to rely on you to make the selections.

Those who have no family to worry about are definitely not okay, and those with no ties at home won't do either..."

Jiang Hong was a person recommended by Li Zhongfa back then; he was steady and cautious, and absolutely trustworthy.

But no matter how trustworthy he was, he still had his share of friends, relatives, and nephews! If this were all about nepotism, wouldn't the bodyguard team Li Ye was building end up belonging to the Jiang family?

Uncle Hong said in a deep voice: "After Xiao Peng told me yesterday, I came up with an idea: all the kids who want to go out and see the world must first take a cultural test.

After they finish the test, we will each recommend a few; some kids are truly good, they just never had the chance to study. But don't worry, we'll have them sign something; if they dare to stay overseas and not return, their ancestral graves at home won't be left in peace..."

Whoa~

Veterans who have been on the battlefield are different, aren't they? Truly ruthless enough.

If even the ancestral graves aren't in peace, you can imagine what the parents and family would be like!

"That's fine. I'll take some time to write up a test paper, and you can have them take it. It doesn't matter if their education is a bit lacking, but their character must be good. They'll be getting four or five times the salary, so we can't end up feeding a wolf with a white-eyed glare."

Jiang Hong nodded and then looked at Watching Watching Watching Jin Peng and the others.

The others all nodded in agreement.

Then Ma Qianshan and the others all took out a piece of letter paper and smilingly handed it to Li Ye.

These were the people they were recommending.

Li Ye took them and looked, and was immediately amused.

Because the first person they all recommended was themselves.

Even Wang Jianqiang wrote his own name; they really were recommending the worthy without avoiding their own kin.

Li Ye laughed and said: "You lot are all in management positions, why are you fighting for security personnel slots?"

Ma Qianshan laughed and said: "Isn't it because we want to go out and see the world? And if we go out to negotiate business in the future, don't we have to learn English?"

Li Ye waved his hand and said: "Don't you lot go making trouble! When you go out to negotiate business, you'll be provided with interpreters. Even if the big boss can speak English, he'll still bring an interpreter."

Bring an interpreter? Wouldn't that be high-class and sophisticated all of a sudden?

Li Ye saw that the group had stopped talking and turned his head to look at Old Song again.

"Old Song, you are..."

Before Li Ye could finish asking, Old Song said: "I have a foreign language training class! Why let the benefits go to outsiders? I... hehehehe, I'll take a slot!"

"Hasn't your training class gone bust yet?"

So he asked coldly: "Who are you? How do you know who I am?"
