Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 161 The Worker's Dream

A mountain eagle gets off a taxi at Ao Nang Beach, Krabi.

Looking at Marta, who was painting the exterior wall of the office with a boat cap made of folded newspaper on her head, Shanying greeted her cheerfully...

"Hey, Marta!"

Marta turned around and looked at Shanying, waving her hands happily and shouting, "Boss, you are back, come in and take a look, Mr. Poincare is really amazing..."

Shanying was stunned by Marta's nonsensical words. He walked into the office with a little expectation, and then saw that it had changed a lot.

In less than four days, not only was the garbage in the yard cleaned up and flowers and plants planted, but the interior decoration was also completely new.

The originally bumpy walls were covered with aluminum-plastic panels, the tattered front desk was replaced with a brand new solid wood desk, the floor was covered with corrosion-resistant laminate flooring, and most importantly, several high-power air conditioners were installed.

Poincare sat under an air conditioner, watching the mountain eagle looking around curiously. The old man, who was afraid of heat, picked up a delicate glass teapot beside him, poured a cup of black tea, and gestured to the mountain eagle...

Shanying happily took a sip of the black tea, then looked at Mr. Poincare and said with a smile: "When did the Thais become so efficient? How did you do it?"

Mr. Poincare said with a smile: "Your contractor friend named 'Big Mouth' is very capable, and the workers he arranged are willing to work overtime. I just provided some professional advice.

You probably didn’t expect that I once studied architecture when I was young, but I changed my career only after my teacher discovered my talent for mathematics…”

Mr. Poincare stood up and waved to Shanying, saying, "I'll take you upstairs to have a look. The equipment is already in place. Jon and Zorn are doing the final debugging. They are just waiting for you to provide a schedule."

Shanying followed Mr. Poincare with satisfaction and said, "Is the money in place?"

Mr. Poincare nodded slightly and said, “I have put all my money in HSBC Bank in Singapore, and the trading account has been opened.

Financial investment is not my specialty, and short selling is beyond my ability. Fortunately, Chris Jon is really capable..."

Shanying followed Mr. Poincare up to the second floor of the office, and then saw computer expert Zorn, with gauze wrapped on his arm, debugging several computer devices in an air-conditioned room.

Chris Jon, who was shot in the leg, sat in a wheelchair with a look of despair on his face. Luo Yang, who was wearing a police uniform, sat next to him, and occasionally paid attention to Jon's infusion bag...

Seeing the mountain eagle appear, Jon waved his hand with difficulty and said, "Sir, I think I need some painkillers, and it would be best if there was a nurse who could take care of me."

Jon glanced at Luo Yang and sighed, "I'd rather have a catheter than have to pee in this guy's arms."

Zorn, who was busy debugging the computer, also raised his hand and said, "Sir, this guy is like a big energetic wolfhound, can you ask him to stop staring at us?
I haven’t slept for two days, we are not slaves…”

Shanying glanced at Luo Yang, who was grinning so hard that his teeth were showing. He nodded in appreciation and said, "You finally did the right thing. Keep an eye on them 24 hours a day. If you find anything wrong with them, call the Russian Mafia directly.

The Russian mafia is looking for them and is ready to cut them into pieces."

As Shanying looked at Zorn who kept complaining, he smiled and said, "Don't get yourself wrong. I am your savior, and you are not my employees. You are just two poor creatures who need shelter.

Put all your intelligence and talents to work for me, that's what you should consider now."

Jon, who was sitting in a wheelchair, was silent for a while, then suddenly raised his hand and said, "Sir, if we were your employees, would you always protect us?"

Shanying frowned and said, "That depends on what you mean by 'protection'?
If it's the Big Russian Mafia, I can promise that as long as you stay here, you will be safe."

Jon said, "If we become employees, does that mean we will also get a salary?"

Shanying was somewhat puzzled by Jon's words. He frowned and said, "Why do I feel like you can't wait to work for me?

Didn't Mr. Poincare tell you that as long as you finish the tasks I assigned to you, you can leave Thailand with your dividends and go to any country you want? "

Jon and Zorn looked at each other, smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, Zorn and I are both in trouble. If we fly to any place now, we may be detained and extradited to the United States.

We've had enough of our current life!

Because it seems like no matter how hard we try, we just can’t get our lives back on track.”

As he spoke, Jon glanced at Mr. Poincare, who was very gentlemanly, and said with admiration in his eyes, "We have discussed many professional issues with Mr. Poincare, and I think we can serve you."

Mr. Poincare saw that Shanying was looking at him with some surprise. He smiled and spread his hands and said, "I talked to them about some professional topics. Jon and Zorn's technical capabilities are not scarce resources, but you have the idea of developing a formal business, and the issue of fund management is a threshold that you cannot avoid.

My time is limited, and I can't help you keep an eye on it for a long time, so I think Jon and Zorn's abilities will be very helpful to you.

Shanying, they have no choice, you should give the young people a chance."

Shanying glanced at Jon and Zorn who were full of expectations, shook his head and said, "I have read your resumes, I may not be able to give you a salary that satisfies you..." When Jon heard that there was a chance, he said excitedly, "Sir, we don't need money, we need a stable platform.

Zorn is a team all by himself, and as long as he has the right platform, he can make money on his own.

I am the same, I need a stable platform, otherwise I won’t have the chance to show what I am good at.”

Shanying understood Jon's needs. These two guys were actually fugitives from the United States. There was no one to protect them in Thailand, and they could be extradited back to the United States at any time.

No decent company would want them. It would be a joke for them to start from scratch with a criminal identity. Shanying can provide them with a different choice.

Shanying never expected that there would be top students from Stanford and MIT begging to work for him.

Seeing Mr. Poincare nod to him, Shanying still had some doubts about some details, but out of trust in Mr. Poincare, he finally nodded and said, "You can stay, but the salary will definitely not be very high..."

Shanying looked at Luo Yang and said with a smile: "See this guy? He is my first employee. His basic salary is 5000 baht per month. You can't exceed him.

Of course, 5000 is just the basic salary. If you have your own ideas and projects, I can support you depending on the situation...

There is nothing wrong with developing football betting software and selling it to the mafia. It’s just that you don’t have the ability to trade, but I can.

That’s actually what you want, right?”

Jon nodded and said, "Yes, boss!"

Looking at Jon climbing up the ladder, Shanying said with a smile: "It's a bit early to call you boss now. If you want me to trust you, you need to show me enough ability and sincerity in the future."

Shanying pointed at the assembled computer and said with a smile: "This is the opportunity I give you. If you don't seize this opportunity...

Believe me, I will sink you into the sea with my own hands without even the Big Russian Mafia having to do anything!"

When Jon heard this, he nodded vigorously and said, "Don't worry, boss, if your information is accurate, I can make enough money to satisfy you from the foreign exchange market, stock market, and futures market.

In fact, if Thailand can smoothly transition power, it will be difficult for us to make enough profits from the foreign exchange market with only more than 2000 million US dollars.

I have been paying attention to the Thai stock market and commodity trading market these days. Once a coup is launched in Thailand, it will definitely trigger some international sanctions...

The stock market and commodity futures are where we should pay most attention!
Once a coup occurs, international and local capital related to the Anglo-Washington government will flee. Coupled with the problem of currency depreciation, a decline in the Thai stock market is almost inevitable.

Zorn once developed a software for monitoring the stock market. He only needed to spend a few days to modify it and he could use the software to monitor transactions in the Thai stock market.

In fact, as long as our information is a few minutes or even seconds faster than others, we can make profits using the existing funds even if no coup occurs.

At the same time, Thailand is a major exporter of rice and natural rubber. Once problems arise in their commodity trading, it will have a huge impact on international prices.

I can use the margin system to leverage our funds and get enough returns from the futures market.”

This is why Shanying needs professionals. He understands it, but the specific operations still require help from people in the financial industry...

The value of traders to Shanying lies in their ability to maximize the value of the "insider information" provided by Shanying.

Shanying believed in Jon's professional ability and also believed in this guy's motivation, because if he didn't do a good job, he would lose his life.

This is also the reason why he is so anxious to "surrender" to Shanying!

Looking at Jon, who had entered the working state and even ignored the pain in his body, Shanying smiled and nodded, saying, "This time it will be a blitzkrieg, plan ahead, and retreat when you succeed...

We cannot take the risk of the 2000 million, but we can invest all the subsequent profits into it.

Remember to keep an eye on the gas station business near Krabi. If a gas station has financial problems, we can directly acquire it.

Financial professionals cannot just focus on computer numbers; offline activities are also worth paying attention to.”

Just as Jon was about to nod, Zorn next to him raised his hand and said, “I can access the police surveillance. With just a small program, I can monitor the operation of nearby gas stations and infer the profitability and inventory of gas stations by counting the number of vehicles.

Then, we can judge the financial situation of the gas station through the internal changes of the gas station!"

Shanying couldn't help but give a thumbs up and said, "Although the Krabi police didn't install enough surveillance, I believe you can think of other ways..."
