Chapter 43: Business

Jonny woke up at four o'clock in the night.

It wasn't because he could maintain a good sleep after being beaten, it was purely because the pain woke him up.

He had just finished the surgery. After the anesthesia of the surgery passed, the kind of severe pain that made him unable to ignore started to attack him.

He screamed and woke up from his coma. His daughter walked over at the first time, comforting him by his side, "Everything is over, you are already safe!"

Jonny's consciousness started to gather gradually. He endured the severe pain and looked at his daughter. Sweat beads started to appear on his pale face visibly to the naked eye, "I'm in too much pain, find the doctor, I need them!"

The fat daughter didn't refuse, and soon called the doctor over. The doctor just checked simply, "The surgery was very successful. Pain is certain. You have more than ten bones fractured or cracked, this kind of pain is inevitable."

Jonny couldn't endure it anymore. He groaned in pain while begging, "Is there any painkiller, I can't take it, I feel like I'm about to die!"

The doctor nodded, "Yes, very effective, but painkillers are not within the reimbursement scope of medical insurance."

His meaning was very clear: if you want pain relief, you have to spend money.

Jonny, who was about to blurt out, stopped the impulse to have an injection immediately. He gritted his teeth and asked, "How much for one time?"

The doctor smiled, "There are two specifications, one lasts longer, but the analgesic effect is not very good. For severe pain...", he showed some kind smiles, "For fracture patients like you, the effect is just to let you go from 'screaming out' to 'being able to shut your mouth and endure'."

"This kind of analgesic price is not too expensive, only fifty cents."

"There is another kind of special medicine, it can make you feel not a bit of pain, but the price is high, the effect duration is short, only four to six hours."

"Each injection needs three dollars."

"I don't quite agree with you using analgesics. The peak period of fracture pain is actually only these forty-eight hours. After two days, you will feel the pain significantly reduced to the point of being able to endure."

Jonny couldn't listen to so much anymore, "Give me the best, fast, I can't take it!"

The doctor didn't refuse. Promoting non-medical insurance special medicine was also one of his jobs. He asked the nurse to take the medicine, and gave Jonny an injection in front of them.

A miraculous thing happened. About two minutes later, Jonny, who had been alternating between screaming and groaning, suddenly quieted down.

"I seem to... not be in pain anymore!"

The doctor also smiled, "This is the value of three dollars, Mr. Jonny.", he said and paused, "Find me anytime if there's anything, I'll be here before nine o'clock in the morning."

After the doctor left, Jonny looked at his fat daughter, "Where is the apprentice?"

"He was called away by the police."

"What did the police say?"

The fat daughter was a bit embarrassed, "I don't know..."

While talking, an officer stood at the door and knocked on the door. Seeing that Jonny had also woken up and got his permission, he entered the ward.

"Mr. Jonny, the case has been figured out. The apprentice in your shop colluded with some people he knew to create this case. I'm just here to tell you."

"Tomorrow after dawn, we will go to arrest the suspects. This case is not too complicated, so we will withdraw the officers. Tomorrow you can let your family go to the headquarters, they will tell you the details of the case."

"You'd better hire a lawyer."

Jonny asked one more question, "Are you sure my apprentice also participated in it?"

The officer nodded, "It's a pity, that's indeed the case."

Jonny was a bit lost, stunned for a while, before reacting, "Thank you for coming to notify me so late."

The fat daughter thought Jonny would burst into curses, but what surprised her was that Jonny didn't curse, just lying quietly.

She didn't know how to say, what to say, could only sit by the bed.

In a daze, the day dawned...

Lan Si stretched, the board bed was still more comfortable to sleep on.

After simple washing, the little partners were also almost up. They had done a lot, including his plan.

For this era, cash flow is a very important thing, or rather, it is the same in any era, but how to accumulate wealth quickly has always been a problem that many people can't solve in their whole lives.

But for Lan Si, this problem is actually very easy to solve.

Money has money's way, money has money's way, but Alberto's financial company is so hot, plus the federal government's current indulgence in small private financial contracts, let him also decide to get the first sum of money from here first.

But he won't be as stupid as Alberto or others. The federal government's attitude cannot always remain unchanged. Social order and stability are what every ruling group is pursuing.

Perhaps the emergence of financial companies in this stage has a certain effect on comforting the middle and lower classes, but it is not a good industry in the end, and the interest rate is too high.

This is actually an opportunity. When everyone is still thinking about how many hundreds of dollars a hundred dollars can become in a year, as long as you lower your expectations slightly, you can harvest a large amount of wealth.

In the morning, he took Erwin to find a suitable place in the city. It couldn't be too remote, and it couldn't be too close to the city center.

Too remote, people can't see it; the location is too good, he can't afford the expensive rent. In the end, he chose a block between the port area and the bay area that wasn't very prosperous, and picked a house.

A two-story house by the road, previously an appliance store, because of poor management, cleared the field and left. The upper and lower floors added up to about three hundred square meters, and the monthly rent needed eighteen dollars.

This rent is not only not expensive, it can even be said to be a bit cheap.

For people of this era, this is a golden age full of opportunities, even the rent is so cheap!

Then he let Erwin go back to find some little partners, went to the second-hand market to buy some furniture together, and soon a consulting company was born.

The little partners all stood in the lobby on the first floor. Lan Si looked at these people and started to explain the subsequent work to them.

"We currently only do one thing, financial consulting."

"To put it popularly, if someone urgently needs money and doesn't have it on hand, our work is to solve their trouble."

"I divide this work into two parts. The first part, needs below one hundred dollars, we do these ourselves."

"The second part, more than one hundred dollars, hundreds, thousands, I am responsible for these."

"So in fact, you are only responsible for borrowing orders of less than one hundred dollars."

Erwin raised his hand, Lan Si looked at him, "Do we have so much money?"

Lan Si pointed at him, "This is a good question, but this is not what you need to care about. I can solve it. At the same time, I also need to tell you how to do this."

"All profits, I take fifty percent, you get twenty percent, and the remaining thirty percent is placed in a shared account."

"Besides these, every month I will give you twenty dollars, the two girls thirty dollars, responsible for front desk answering phones and so on. Every quarter I will issue half a month's salary as a bonus. Any questions?"

Everyone looked at each other and shook their heads.

This income was already higher than their past income, and Lan Si said last night that the company would be responsible for their food.

If they were frugal, without commission, they could save at least ten to fifteen dollars a month. This was already a large sum of income, and no one would be dissatisfied.

Lan Si also nodded with satisfaction, "Then next, I will tell you how to create wealth, create value. We are different from those traditional financial companies. We must exert subjective initiative, actively explore the market, instead of waiting for some people to walk into the company like taking a chance..."

In the afternoon, he drove to Alberto's. As soon as he entered the door, someone greeted him. Although he didn't work here for long, everyone liked him.

Fudis was playing billiards with someone, also put down the cue and walked over, gave him a hug, "In trouble?"

"No, I'm here to talk business with Mr. Coty."

Fudis's eyes were a bit bright, "So your company has already started business?"

"Almost like that, I'm waiting for the registration call from the Commercial Service Bureau."

The two walked toward the inside, Fudis asked while walking, "Can you tell me what you're doing?"

"Small-amount lending, and helping you pull large-amount business."

Fudis whistled, "This is indeed a good job, but the competitiveness will be beyond your expectations."

"First you have to have money, second you have to have this.", he gestured a pistol shape, "Jincheng, or the entire Federation's peers are not law-abiding good citizens!"

Lan Si knew this very clearly, "You have to introduce a seller to me."

"Leave it to me!"

Fudis knocked on the door, and Alberto's voice came from inside, "Come in."

"He's not in a good mood these two days, so I won't go in. We'll talk when you come out.", he poked his head toward the inside and said, "Boss, Lan Si is here."

Alberto was stunned, then signaled him to open the door, "Then why don't you let him in?"

Fudis gave up the position at the main entrance, then turned and left.

Although his relationship with Lan Si and Alberto was very good, this didn't mean he should stay here.

Seeing Lan Si, without waiting for him to greet, Alberto said, "I've encountered a trouble these two days, maybe you can help me..." ===== CHAPTER 44 =====
