Alaska Gold Rush

Chapter 420
Seeing the Golden Hunter start to take action, Toby collapsed a little. The situation he least expected to see happened.At this time, he could only punch the driver's seat with a heavy punch. Unfortunately, even if he did this, he could not change the situation where he was in a passive position at the beginning of the quarter.

Whether to stay or go is an extremely difficult decision.If you leave now to make money elsewhere, your initial investment will be wasted and the capital will not be earned back yet.

It is also because the basic salary of the two divers seems to be similar to the market price, but if there is not enough output, this will become a big burden. All this makes Toby feel very embarrassed.

The most important thing was that he couldn't help but start to worry, worried that the words Chen Ruobai said yesterday were not meant to scare people.

Kessler was in a cheerful mood, pointing to a coffee shop and saying, "Let's go get a cup of coffee."

Chen Ruobai doesn't have any objections either. Lao America is all about fashion and coffee.And many cafes have outdoor seating. Sitting outside drinking coffee and chatting is a very common scene.

After ordering coffee, Chen Ruobai joked, "We should order a cup of Starbucks."

Kessler immediately retorted, "This racially charged joke is not funny, especially to me, who is no longer walking around with a Starbucks cup."

Many people in China like to go to Starbucks, which seems to be petty bourgeoisie.There is a similar situation in the United States, except that many black people like to hold a cup of Starbucks, which means that they have formal jobs and are middle class, not gangsters in the slums.

Chen Ruobai said directly, "Okay, since you don't find this joke interesting, we won't tell it. But I still want to say that your requirements for some things are higher than mine. You look like a successful entrepreneur. Elite level."

Kessler adjusted his suit and said confidently, "That's the truth. I have always been an elite!"

There's nothing more to say. This is Kessler. This guy has always liked to strictly distinguish himself from the bottom.

There seems to be nothing wrong with this. After all, regardless of education, work, quality, etc., Kessler is indeed a relatively typical middle-class person. He has a good education background and income, owns his own house in a middle-class community, has a harmonious family, and has no delinquency. Hobbies, if some of these situations are not considered elite, it would be a little unreasonable.

After the joke, it was natural to talk about business. This time Kessler came to Anchorage to better solve some problems with the profit-absorbing fleet, including matters about adding a new profit-absorbing ship.

Kessler stopped smiling and said to Chen Ruobai, "Are you sure you need to spend tens of thousands of dollars to teach those guys a lesson?"

Chen Ruobai nodded, but then said, "This is not just a lesson, and I am not vindictive. I don't like this kind of thing happening again and again. Those guys may think that I am easy to bully and think that I have no way to counter them. I want to be more Tough, those guys don't like pissing off a lion."

Kessler smiled and nodded. He naturally agreed with this statement and felt that there was absolutely nothing wrong with Chen Ruobai's actions.Sometimes it is better to be stronger. It is difficult to make money by being friendly, because everyone is a direct competitor.

Chen Ruobai continued, "I have thought about this matter carefully. If we just drive them away, the result will be the same as before. They will improve the technology again, which may cause greater trouble and losses. So we are They need to be taught a hard lesson for once, and it’s not just for the traitor!”

Kessler nodded, but also reminded, "The world does not lack some people who like to challenge authority, especially in such an industry. There will be people who choose to take risks for the sake of higher interests, and you need to be prepared."

Chen Ruobai found it funny and asked immediately, "Are you talking about my safety? I don't think they have such courage, and there are many rich people in the world. They can choose more valuable targets."

Kessler laughed and explained, "That's not what I'm talking about, although it's also very important. What I'm talking about is that once someone thinks you make a lot of money, there will be a lot of gold in the area where you work. They may Choose to take risks, and the losers in the past will not be looked down upon because those guys are confident."

This is true. There are always people who think they are better. The failure experiences of others are just a reference at most.Those who fail fail because they lack ability.As for those confident challengers, they will not think that they are not capable enough. Maybe it is because of blind self-confidence, but it may also be that they really have two skills.

Chen Ruobai didn't particularly care. He just smiled and said, "I'm really looking forward to something like this happening. If there are no challengers, it seems that my life will become a little boring. This is not a good thing."

Regarding Chen Ruobai's words, Kessler thought it would be good to just listen to them, but he would not take them seriously.

Based on his understanding of Chen Ruobai, he is a person who doesn't like trouble. What he is saying now is just because of his confidence and face.

Chen Ruobai didn't joke, and said seriously, "Although this may cause guys who think they have good abilities to challenge me, I'm not worried about this. As long as this can make most money-sucking people rational, it's worth it."

Kessler naturally agrees with this statement, although doing so may not necessarily deter all money-seekers.But as long as it can scare most of the money attractors, this is naturally enough.

As for challengers, you don't need to pay much attention to it at all. Work is like this, and you can't always be trouble-free.

Moreover, the essential difference between gold-absorbing and gold-mining is that gold-absorbing is in public waters. Gold-mining can buy the mining rights of an area. You only need to avoid being stolen. This kind of thing is relatively easy.It's different when it comes to attracting money. You can't drive others away.

Chen Ruobai said what was in his heart, "I think if we get rid of Toby this year, maybe we can carry out the next work completely and smoothly. But next year, or in the future, there may be new annoying people. As long as we continue to be strong , that can calm down some people who want to challenge.”

Kessler agrees, "I think so too, so we may need to have a separate budget. I hate it, but this expenditure is obviously indispensable. As long as our results are good, we will become other money attractors." The target of imitation will become the target of their pursuit.”

This so-called pursuit naturally comes from all aspects.

It can be said that the target number is one of the benchmarks in the industry, and there will be some money attractors who want to move towards this goal.It could also be that there are some gold hunters who are always hanging around the Golden Hunter because they are thinking about the output of the Golden Hunter.

Obviously becoming a so-called target will not scare Chen Ruobai, and he doesn't think there is anything wrong with it.That's what it means to be outstanding in strength. Who makes him outstanding? Just treat him as mediocre if he is not envied by others.

However, it is not certain that the wood will be destroyed by the forest wind, so there is no need to worry too much.Seeing that the thief Chen Ruobai didn't care about these things, Kessler was naturally happier. He hoped that his boss would be more enterprising.

The development of Robert Mining Company is very good, but if it can go further, obviously no one will object.Especially as a manager, Kessler really wants the company to develop better.

In addition to making more money, it can also make his resume look better, which can open up opportunities in this industry and give him more choices in the future.

"Robert, if you let me do it, I will definitely not just drive them away." Staring into Chen Ruobai's eyes, Kessler said, "I want everyone to see our strength, I want to drive them away Get out of this industry!”

Chen Ruobai smiled and said, "There is no need to test my determination. I am not a particularly kind or noble person, and I will not sympathize with my enemies. Nor will I be satisfied with just driving them out of our work area and letting them leave." This industry is the best choice so that our potential enemies will be afraid!”

Hearing what Chen Ruobai said, Kessler was naturally very happy, and he hoped so too.Since the purpose is to deter potential enemies, it is necessary to show convincing results. Small fights will not be very effective.

I was originally worried that Chen Ruobai would accept it as soon as possible and show mercy to others, but now it seems that there is no need to worry.

Kessler said confidently, "Since you are mentally prepared, I will take over this task with full authority. Although I don't know how to attract money, I know how to use some resources to completely defeat our enemies!"

Chen Ruobai smiled and said, "This is why I asked you to come to Alaska. Although I can also do these things, I think it is too much trouble and I have to do other things."

Kessler didn't think he was being raped. He also believed that he should be the one to do these things.

This can be regarded as a happy consensus. Everyone knows their position and tasks, and that is obviously enough.

In fact, Chen Ruobai doesn't need to worry too much about the specific operation, because Kessler is mostly following Chen Ruobai's previous approach.The most they can do is to change places and start chasing and harassing Toby one after another.

It is not immoral to do this. Chen Ruobai believes that this is tit for tat, and this is his best counterattack against the enemy who has repeatedly provoked him.

It seems that Chen Ruobai does not need to worry about this matter, and many things will go smoothly.

Naturally, there is no need to worry about budgeting and the like now, because I actually don’t know exactly how much money I will spend in the future.

But the money must be spent. Thinking of this, Chen Ruobai naturally gritted his teeth at Toby even more.

If it weren't for that old bastard, this expense could really be saved.Although even if there is no Toby, there may be someone else, but no matter what, this account obviously needs to be recorded on that old bastard now.

Therefore, even if the old guy is driven out of the industry, Chen Ruobai will not have any psychological burden.Smashing someone else's job seems like a bad thing, but when you think about that bastard almost throwing flies into your own meal, you won't sympathize!
This is what she should do, Chen Ruobai firmly believes in this!

After talking about dealing with Toby, Kessler asked, "When we add a new ship, should we follow the configuration of the Golden Hunter, or increase or decrease some levels?"

Chen Ruobai said, "If we just maintain the same level, I think it will cause a waste of resources, and I don't want this to happen."

Kessler nodded and asked, "So what are your requirements? Is it to increase the working capacity in deep water areas, or to enhance the resistance to wind and waves? Or simply to improve the efficiency of some mechanical equipment, which can also increase production."

Chen Ruobai thought about it carefully and said, "I think it is still necessary to slightly strengthen the capabilities in the deep water area and add some mechanical equipment. I hope there can be some improvements in automation. The efficiency of divers in attracting gold is not very high."

Kessler joked, "It seems that not only will the gold mining team not be able to generate revenue for the company this year, they will even take away part of our funds, and the investment in them has exceeded that of the gold mining team."

If you think about it this way, what Kessler said is really very reasonable. The money-grabbing team has invested a lot.

Apart from anything else, the cost of the Golden Hunter is at the level of one million US dollars. If a more advanced gold-absorbing ship is added now, the cost will definitely need to be further increased.

Judging from the benefits currently created by the money-attracting team, it is really difficult to repay the capital, and it requires continuous blood transfusion from the company.

But there is no other way. In order to make more money in the future, such an investment naturally needs to be made.

Don't say that the return on investment of the gold-absorbing team is not as good as that of the gold-mining team. This is indeed a fact.However, the amount of wealth that the money-attracting team can create is not a small amount. The return on capital is actually very fast, and the amount of money that can be earned is certainly not small.

So when it's time to invest, Chen Ruobai will definitely choose to invest without hesitation. There is no return without effort.

Kessler wrote this down and said to Chen Ruobai, "I will consult some professionals as soon as possible. After sorting out the information and parameters, I will discuss this matter with you."

Chen Ruobai nodded. With Kessler in charge of these matters, it really saved him a lot of worry.If it weren't for such a manager, many things would have to be done personally.And even if you do everything yourself, the effect may not be so good.

So even though he sometimes complains about Kessler's salary, Chen Ruobai never thinks that the money is spent unjustly. He also believes that the value created by Kessler is actually higher.

So when it’s time to spend money, then spend it, there’s nothing you can’t bear to part with!
