Psychics don't die from gunfire

Chapter 545 Rudolf Mining

The bald fat man, who was about fifty years old, wiped the sweat off his face with a towel.

This was clearly his office, but at this moment, it seemed as if the other party was sitting in the main seat and had absolute initiative.

He tried to ease the atmosphere: "Haha, your company's president is really young and promising."

"Why don't you just say you think I'm Song Shi?"

The young man opposite him had his hands folded and his back slightly leaned on the chair. A woman in formal attire of neutral gender stood upright beside him, looking at him calmly and neatly.

The fat man was stuck for a moment, and after a few seconds he managed to say, "You, uh, you're joking."

"Indeed, I was just joking." Song Shi also laughed: "Although I do have the same name and surname as that wanted criminal against humanity and society, and I look similar, this really doesn't mean anything. We are certainly not the same person. I am a law-abiding citizen and a patriotic private entrepreneur."

"I appreciate your compliment, but it's not easy to build such a big company from scratch—"

Song Shi couldn't help sighing, as if he was recalling the glorious past.

"Is that so?" The fat man said dryly, "Haha, what an unfortunate coincidence."

"It's okay, it's just a small problem, I'm used to it." Song Shi clapped his hands: "Let's talk about business first."

With black gloves on both hands, Xia Le took out the data tablet from his arms and placed it flat on the table: "Mr. Rudolph, regarding your security needs for the mining area in the Eagle's Beak Gorge, this is the preliminary contract we have drafted. Please take a look."

The other party picked up the data pad and only glanced at it for a few breaths before his expression changed slightly.

As the boss of a mining company that has made many achievements, although he looks fat and weak, in fact, the other party has invested a lot of money in the life support system purchased for him, and they are all good products from the giant enterprise [Jade Pharmaceuticals].

If we really compare them, the opponent's physical functions are comparable to those of top natural athletes.

But at this moment, as the sliding speed became faster and faster, fine beads of sweat gradually appeared on the fat man's forehead.

"This is too harsh. We cannot accept such conditions."

Xia Le smiled widely.

"How harsh is it?"

"Shares! How can a security contractor include shares in the compensation column?" As it concerns his own capital, the fat man does not care whether the person on the other side is the real Song Shi or the fake Song Shi: "What's more, you have further requested equity! It's simply a fantasy! You are basically plotting against my company!"

"Plot? No, no, no." Xia Le shook his head repeatedly: "This is a reasonable reward."

"Mr. Rudolph, do you think that we, Nine Defense, are some kind of cheap dollar store? We can just give you a few coins and get rid of you?"

"With all due respect, you cannot afford the normal remuneration in credit points given your current business situation."

Xia Le moved his index finger, and a new file popped up on the data board on the table, a company investigation report: "Several failed decisions have caused your Rudolf Mining to deteriorate and the capital chain is almost broken. Fortunately, you were unwilling to slowly die, and spent your entire fortune to exchange for a commercial loan from [Dark Crystal Credit], and took the lead in the development of the Eagle Gorge mining area."

"Fortunately, your desperate gamble has paid off. There are a number of lithium mines with considerable reserves and medium to high quality in the Eagle's Beak Mining Area. If successfully developed, it will surely bring Rudolf Mining back to life."

Xia Le deliberately slowed down his tone: "Unfortunately, your competitors can't just sit back and watch. They hired a group of mercenaries to launch a persistent destruction campaign against the Eagle's Beak Gorge mining area. You suffered heavy losses, and your development progress has come to a standstill."

"You have run out of options and no longer have the funds to hire a security contractor - I mean a security contractor qualified to solve your situation. Believe me, we, Nine Imperial Defense, are your only and best choice."

Rudolf wiped his sweat vigorously and suddenly raised his voice: "Yes, I admit that I don't have much money." "But Rudolf Mining's shares are still worth some money. You want it, and others certainly want it too." Rudolf puffed out his belly: "Come on, tell me the reason. Why should I give it to you? I believe that you are not the only security contractor interested in it."

Xia Le smiled.

"Give shares to other people in the company? Let other people in the company intervene in the operation of your company? Think about it again?"

Rudolph suddenly closed his mouth, as if he was choking.

In an instant, classic business cases of countless founders being kicked out flashed through my mind.

"The reputation of the company and cough cough cough." Xia Le smiled unchanged: "I think the world has seen it. You can think carefully about which side to choose."

"However, as a kind reminder," she said kindly, "your repeated failures have caused those investors and officials who used to be on good terms with you to strategically abandon you. After you declare bankruptcy, they will still be able to cooperate with your competitors who take over the Eagle's Beak Gorge mining area."

“Business loans are short-term loans, and you don’t have much time.”

Xia Le's hand lightly turned back to the data pad.

"I need to think about it." Rudolph said in a hoarse voice.

Song Shi stood up and walked out the door. Xia Le smiled at Rudolph and followed him.

".He has already agreed in his heart."

On the shuttle, the two sat opposite each other.

"I know." Song Shi glanced out the window, and the undulating buildings gradually withdrew into large blocks of color: "He has no other choice."

"The Eagle's Beak Gorge mining area is not far from the Rockall Plain and is within easy reach. After obtaining the equity, the next step is to slowly operate and transform this company - are you sure?"

"Don't worry, President." Xia Le said cheerfully, "We are professionals in this area."

She counted on her fingers: "More accurate salary payments, more reasonable work systems, increased investment in public affairs, and subtle anti-corporatism propaganda and military deployment."

"We will expand gradually with New Light City as the center, lighting up one point after another. Rudolf Mining is the first, but it will definitely not be the last."

Companies have established an order that is the sole guide for economic activities, with universal monopoly and private ownership of the means of production. They are both the beneficiaries and the shackles of this order.

Song Shixin thought.

Even though they knew that Enlightenment was behind [Jiuyu Defense], after obtaining control of "Rudolf Mining" through legal procedures, the company would rather sit back and watch the former gradually expand its influence than take rash actions - who would be willing to be the pioneer and waste their own capital in vain?

Both gunfire and psychic powers can kill people.

"The World's No. 1 Security Conference"

Song Shi withdrew his gaze and casually slid the data board, browsing the wonderful clips of previous conferences.

At the top of the video, the website has opened a special area for pre-event activities, and the date of the fourth "World's No. 1 Security Conference" is announced.
A month later.
