That money is everything Lu Cheng has but he gave it all to him. One year after that incident, he became one of the middlemen in the black market and made a lot of money. So, he asked Bajie to pay Lu Cheng’s dividends.
Houzi remembered that when Lu Cheng gave him money, he told him that since he gave them the capital to start a business, he would give him 20% of their income. Unexpectedly, Lu Cheng misunderstood that the dividends passed to him were for repayment of the money he gave him.
After Houzi understood the situation, he smiled and said, "Brother Cheng, that money is not used to repay the money I borrowed. That is your annual dividend. Didn’t I tell you that you provide the funds for our business and I will give you 20% of our net income?"
"What? When did you say that?" Lu Cheng asked in surprise.
"On the day you gave me 50 yuan," said Houzi.
Lu Cheng was stunned for a while before asking, "So, you mean, I also have a share in your business?"
Houzi nodded and explained, "I asked Bajie to send your shares, give you a report about how much money we made that year, and also tell you to visit us to get your shares every year. But after the first year, you have never visited me to get the money."
"I thought you wanted me to use your money to expand our business. So, I used your share and added it to the capital. Seven years later, your share in our business has reached 60%."
"Now that we have suspended operations due to some circumstances, we have calculated the past 5 months’ income and everyone’s shares. The question I want to discuss with you is this. Do you want to take your share now or wait until the end of the year?" he asked.
Knowing that Houzi was one of the largest middlemen in the black market, Lu Cheng asked, "Brother Houzi, how much can I get for my share?"
Houzi did the math in his mind and said, "Including the last five months’ income, your total share in the past seven years should be about 980,000 yuan."
Lu Cheng was startled and exclaimed, "980,000 yuan?!"
Houzi was startled by his voice and looked around quickly. Seeing that there was no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Cheng, keep your voice down."
After coming back to his senses, Lu Cheng came closer and whispered, "Brother Houzi, can your business make so much money?"
"Well, our annual net income is usually about 40,000 yuan. But in the past few months, our net profit has increased a lot. Now we can earn at least 300,000 to 500,000 yuan every month after deducting all the costs," Houzi nodded.
’Thanks to your sister’s help,’ he added in his heart.
When Lu Cheng heard this, he was stunned. After thinking for a long time, he finally said, "Brother Houzi, if I take all the money, will my share be reduced?"
Being able to make money without doing anything is already a very happy thing. He shouldn’t be too greedy. After all, he didn’t expect to have so much money so suddenly. fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
