Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 392: Stingy and vengeful
Chen Ruobai is not opposed to things like cooperation in principle, because this means everyone gets what he needs.

But he has a lot of ideas about how to cooperate.Some of his conditions are actually unacceptable to most people, and may even be considered to be outright harsh and insincere.

Others felt that they could not make money, but Chen Ruobai was unwilling to spend a lot of money to give to others.That naturally means that both parties are dissatisfied, which means there are no basic conditions for cooperation. This is a fact.

Dawson actually wants to promote some cooperation, which will help to continue to maintain some of his connections and give him the opportunity to further enhance his influence and make more money.

It's just that it's not easy to get Chen Ruobai to let go.

Seeing that Chen Ruobai seemed unwilling to lower his demands, Dawson was not particularly disappointed. He knew that Chen Ruobai was a very independent person.

From now on, Xiaozhi will continue to use emotion and reason. As long as Chen Ruobai understands the benefits of cooperation, that will be fine.He knows Chen Ruobai's character. He is also a person who attaches great importance to interests. As long as the conditions are in place, there will naturally be opportunities for cooperation.

There is no such thing as killing someone with one shot. Now they are saying that they are unwilling to cooperate, but whether they will change their minds in the future is also very difficult to guarantee. The plan cannot keep up with the changes!
Let’s not discuss the matter of cooperative gold mining for the time being. There are other things that can be discussed.

Looking at Chen Ruobai, Dawson said with a smile, "Have you completely fallen out with your former partner?"

Chen Ruobai was puzzled and felt very strange, "A partner? Do I have a partner?"

Dawson was a little speechless, thinking that Chen Ruobai was really good at pretending to be confused.Sometimes he actually wanted to beat up Chen Ruobai. This young man was too cunning and always avoided the most important things.

Dawson was not going to pretend to be confused and said directly, "Remember Charles Young? Or Roy, or your Captain Toby last year, these are all your former partners. I can guarantee that everyone who has ever worked with you After the people you cooperate with end cooperation with you, your relationship will not be very good.”

Chen Ruobai was even more speechless. He felt that he had been victimized by Feng Jing, "We need to clarify some things. First, Charles Yang is the person you introduced. I have no cooperation with him. He just took over your gold mine. I want to say Unpleasant, I think your cooperation with him is even more unpleasant, he must hate you to death."

Chen Ruobai is very confident about this. There is indeed no cooperative relationship with Charles Yang.That is, the year before last, I bought out Dawson's mine from Chen Ruobai.You may not lose money, but you definitely don’t make any money.

Hearing Chen Ruobai mention this, Dawson was even more speechless, "Well, you and him are not a cooperative relationship, just a business relationship."

Chen Ruobai nodded, he indeed thought so, even he and Charles Yang had no intersection at all.If Dawson hadn't mentioned it, Chen Ruobai would have forgotten such a person.

As for the current relationship between Dawson and Charles Young, that is naturally none of Chen Ruobai's business.

Chen Ruobai also continued, "Roy regrets it? Does he want to return to my team now?"

Seeing Dawson nod, Chen Ruobai said cheerfully, "It's a pity that he missed the opportunity. Since I entered the gold mining industry, he was the first member to leave voluntarily. I won't blame him, I was just a newcomer at that time. , He lacked trust in me. I understand that there is a very high turnover of many gold diggers in Alaska."

Roy, this is really a strange name.He was also the first mechanic in the real sense of Chen Ruobai's team. Unfortunately, he only cooperated for a short period of time and then chose to follow Charles Young. This was considered to be with the wrong team.

Dawson continued, "Roy's work ability is excellent. Even if you only work together for a short time, you know this."

Chen Ruobai nodded and said, "I understand this. Even after he left, I often miss him. Dick is an excellent mechanic, but there is still a gap compared to experienced mechanics like Roy. But we Won’t continue to cooperate, there are still a lot of mechanics in Alaska, aren’t there?”

There seems to be nothing wrong with what Chen Ruobai said. The most indispensable thing in Alaska is gold diggers, mechanics, operators, etc. Naturally, there will be no shortage. As long as they are given good treatment, there is no need to worry about not having excellent helpers.

Dawson looked at Chen Ruobai, "Robert, don't you think this is normal? You also said that there is a lot of mobility in this industry, and you cannot ask your team members to only work for you."

Chen Ruobai understood what Dawson meant. He just smiled and said, "Of course, I understand this. Just like me before, I will work for different people. This is a normal way of working. But I will not change jobs easily. , especially when the work is in progress, or when the treatment is in line with the market.”

Dawson seems to understand that Chen Ruobai may not be unilaterally emphasizing so-called loyalty, he just doesn't like betrayal.

Chen Ruobai said bluntly, "I gave Roy good treatment and met his requirements. But you also know the result. He thinks he can achieve greater success with others, and I will choose to understand him. But in It's obviously impossible for him to come back to my team after he failed."

Dawson smiled and didn't dwell on the matter, "Well, the way you ended the cooperation was a little unpleasant. I understand how you feel, and I don't want to see my team members leave at a critical moment. "

Long live understanding, since Dawson also understands this, there is no need to plead for Roy.

It seems that loyalty is not particularly emphasized in the United States, but it is a normal human emotion to dislike betrayal.

Roy's departure from Chen Ruobai's team cannot be said to be a betrayal in the true sense, but it is obviously not a peaceful breakup.

However, Chen Ruobai was still a little curious and asked, "He regrets it now, right?"

Dawson said angrily, "He has regretted it a long time ago. You know the situation in that mine. Everyone thought they could make a lot of money. But the result is that you took almost all the money, and others were just working for you. So I still suspect that you already knew that there wasn’t much gold there, so you left.”

This Chen Ruobai wouldn't admit it, at least on the surface, he definitely couldn't admit it.He was a 'victim'. He was robbed and lost the opportunity to make a fortune, rather than saying that he had been planning everything and keeping everyone in the dark.

Seeing that Chen Ruobai refused to admit this, Dawson had nothing to do.If you want Chen Ruobai to tell the truth, there seems to be no way to force him.At a moment like this, it seemed that all I could do was keep guessing, but the more I thought about it, the more I thought it was weird.

Dawson also continued, "He has regretted it for a long time. He took the initiative to leave a super potential stock. Especially now that your team is very stable and your team members have made a lot of money. But he is still wandering and looking for A gold mining team that can provide him with good treatment, but it's a pity that he can't find a suitable team." Chen Ruobai was even more gloating, "It's normal. An outstanding team has a fixed mechanic for a long time. The team that needs him basically has They are all newbies, or there is a temporary shortage of people. Under such circumstances, it is difficult to get a stable and high salary.”

Seeing Chen Ruobai's proud look, Dawson didn't say much. Who made Chen Ruobai so good?

As for Roy, his old friend, Dawson felt that he had done what he should do.

He once helped Roy introduce a good job. Dawson actually agreed with Roy's original choice. Normal people would think it would be better to find an experienced team.

It's a pity that there are always some people in this world who like to break the rules, and Chen Ruobai is obviously like this.He, a newcomer, suddenly emerged and achieved results that experienced gold diggers could only envy and look forward to.

One wrong step and the next wrong, Roy is indeed envious of people like Devi now, but now he can only be envious.It is almost impossible to return to Chen Ruobai's team.

Dawson didn't find it strange that Chen Ruobai didn't let go. He also felt that there was no need to continue to intercede for Roy.

Now Chen Ruobai really has no shortage of charisma. As long as he is willing to recruit people, there will definitely be some operators and mechanics eager to sign up, because those people know that they can make more money by following Chen Ruobai. This is the embodiment of his charisma. .

Roy has no advantage at all in a situation like this. He seems to have some experience, but he is not too young, so his physical strength is naturally a shortcoming, and his salary requirements are not low.

Thinking about the past after Chen Ruobai's success, how can it be so easy!If you only want to get benefits without giving, there is no such thing as such a good thing!

Looking at Chen Ruobai, who seemed a little stingy and vindictive, Dawson didn't know what to say.

Although veterans like Dawson feel that sometimes there is no need to be emotional, as long as they can make money, that is the key.Just thinking about Chen Ruobai's age and some of the achievements he has achieved now, being proud is nothing at all at this time.

In the final analysis, having achieved results naturally means having enough confidence. Some practices that may not seem particularly mature will not be unacceptable. This is what young successful people should look like. They are qualified to be willful.

If he knew that Dawson made such an evaluation, Chen Ruobai would definitely not agree with it.

He doesn't think that he is acting out of anger, nor does he think that he is just being vindictive. He is not that childish.

Cooperation couldn't be negotiated, and he couldn't help his old friend return to Robert Mining Company.

However, Dawson was also mentally prepared for these things. He seemed to have a good personal relationship with Chen Ruobai, but he obviously did not have the face to let Chen Ruobai ignore the past grudges or generously take out the money from his own pocket.

It seems that he has encountered some minor setbacks one after another, and some of his small plans have not been carried out smoothly, but these are nothing to the experienced Dawson, who still has some ideas of his own.

"Robert, I know your relationship with Toby is bad." Looking at Chen Ruobai, Dawson said, "But you have to understand that he is an excellent money-sucker. You can choose to cooperate and make money together."

Chen Ruobai said directly, "There is no need for him and me to cooperate. I am already thinking about expanding the team. Adding another gold-absorbing boat and selecting a few more outstanding members for the gold mining team will be enough."

Hearing the news, Dawson was stunned, feeling a little incredible. This was something he had obviously not expected.

Seeing some of Dawson's surprises, Chen Ruobai didn't take it seriously, "You also know how good my prospecting skills are, so I don't need to worry about not finding gold at all. What I've always been worried about is that I can't dig out and exchange the gold as soon as possible. into money.”

Dawson said silently, "This is what I mean when I mention cooperation. You can get the money as soon as possible, and others can also make some money. You all get enough benefits, and you also save a lot of time and reduce costs." There are some risks.”

There are naturally some risks, such as the safety of personnel and equipment, or failure to dig out enough gold in promising locations. These are all part of the risks.

It's just that these risks are not worth mentioning in Chen Ruobai's opinion. He can completely bear them or reduce them. Everything is controllable.

Therefore, in Chen Ruobai's opinion, it is really unnecessary to mention some things about cooperation at this time.

"I'm not kidding, I've been thinking about adding more manpower for a long time." Chen Ruobai said with a smirk, "If Toby goes bankrupt, I can do a charity, and I will bid for his property at a price of [-] US dollars. The money-grabbing boat will not exceed US$[-] at most, and he can leave Alaska to retire.”

Dawson complained and said, "If it is such a price, I will definitely compete with you. His boat is not just for this price. You are not a bank and you cannot take that boat at such a price."

Chen Ruobai spread his hands and said helplessly, "Look, our last chance of cooperation is gone. So even if he goes bankrupt, I can't do anything. Maybe I can buy him a drink and congratulate him on his retirement and no need to continue to stay at the beach." The wind is blowing."

Seeing Chen Ruobai's hateful look, Dawson was speechless, "Okay, I will tell him. But you don't need to treat him to a drink. Although he has not made more money, there is no risk of bankruptcy now. It’s just that his son Lee has returned to his hometown, and they haven’t made a fortune this season, and their relationship has become tense.”

Chen Ruobai was still smiling. He didn't think he was the instigator. Toby and his son were responsible for all this. Who made their calculations sound louder, but they couldn't do it.

Now they have to pay the price for being smart, and that is their own choice.
