Chapter 281 I Can't Help You



Luo Yongjun and Yu Wengui exchanged a glance and then spoke.

“Chairman Xiao, we came out here looking for something to do. Your willingness to take us in is the greatest respect you can show us. Just say what you have to say.”

Xiao Weiguo smiled and nodded.

"Alright, I'll get straight to the point."

He picked up the cigarettes on the table and offered two to the two soldiers, who both waved their hands to indicate that they wouldn't accept them.

Xiao Weiguo lit a cigarette for himself and his father-in-law.

"That's right. Our group has more and more subsidiaries, and our business scope is becoming wider and wider. Therefore, many things cannot be solved by the security department alone."

"Therefore, I would like to add a higher-level special security department to the existing security department, which will be under the unified command of Director Liu and me. You can discuss and decide on the specific name yourselves."

"How are you two feeling?"

As Panlong Group's reputation grows, it has become a highly influential company in mainland China.

At this point, the personal safety of many company executives becomes a problem.

For example, there's Liu Ye, the general manager of the entertainment company; Zhang Damao, the art director and general director; and Zhou Ruolan, a popular singer who is now famous all over the country.

Wang Xiuhong, General Manager of Panlong Apparel; Xiao Jian, General Manager of Panlong Textile; Bai Ziyu and Dr. Zhang Chenliang from Panlong Electronics.

There are also some important personnel in the positions.

These people are all indispensable members of the company, and none of them can afford to make any mistakes.

Therefore, ensuring the personal safety of these individuals is the company's top priority.

Moreover, the company's future development direction is to expand overseas. Without a strong security force as a backing, it's hard to guarantee that no one will secretly plot against them.

Therefore, the moment Xiao Weiguo saw Luo Yongjun and his companion, he immediately thought of this matter.

Establish a special security team composed entirely of elite personnel, preferably veterans like the two of them.

Firstly, they are highly loyal; secondly, as people who have come from the military, their execution ability and discipline are guaranteed.

Most importantly, with their skills and vigilance, they are absolutely qualified as senior security personnel.

Luo Yongjun and Yu Wengui nodded seriously after hearing his words.

"Chairman Xiao, we have no problem with anything. As long as we are not asked to do anything that violates the law or principles, we don't care what we do. Of course, we are very grateful for the job that you have tailored for us."

Both of them were retired from top-level special departments, and their greatest strengths were in carrying out missions and fighting the enemy.

If we were to assign them to other departments, it's not that they're incapable of doing the job, but for the company, it would be a waste of their talents, and for the two of them, it would be a waste of their potential.

They could somewhat understand what Xiao Weiguo meant by the "high-level security department".

They simply rely on their outstanding military skills to serve the company's senior management.

There's nothing to reject about this.

Seeing that they agreed, Xiao Weiguo stood up with a smile and extended his hand.

"Welcome to Panlong Group. From today onwards, we are colleagues."

Luo and Yu quickly stood up from the sofa and shook hands with Xiao Weiguo, sincerely expressing their gratitude.

"Thank you, Chairman Xiao."

After sitting down again, Xiao Weiguo continued.

"In that case, please feel free to make any requests you may have regarding salary or lifestyle. The company and I personally will do our best to meet your needs."

Luo Yongjun and Yu Wengui had only intended to find ordinary jobs and earn a normal salary; they had no other aspirations. Upon hearing this, they quickly waved their hands to indicate that they had no special requirements.

Liu Erzhu, on the other hand, patted them on the shoulder and said something.

"Feel free to share your thoughts. Our chairman is very generous to useful people."

Xiao Weiguo smiled at them, his expression seemingly encouraging them to speak up if they had any ideas.

After thinking for a while, Luo Yongjun looked up at Xiao Weiguo and cautiously asked a question.

"Is it really okay to say anything?"

Xiao Weiguo nodded very seriously and said.

"Although, any ideas and requests are open to discussion."

"Alright, since Chairman Xiao has said so, then I have a favor to ask. If it is inappropriate to say, please don't take offense, Chairman Xiao."

Being soldiers, they didn't mince words. Luo Yongqiang and Xiao Weiguo spoke sincerely, expressing their true thoughts.

"Chairman, we are all people who have been through countless battles. Those who have survived to this day are lucky. Everyone is extremely fortunate."

"However, not everyone among my comrades was as lucky as us to come back from the battlefield alive and well."

"Some of them were injured and left with lifelong disabilities, while others even lost their lives on the battlefield. My brother and I thought that if we had the chance, we must help them. If Chairman Xiao is interested, could you help us think of a way?"

After he finished speaking, he stared at Xiao Weiguo with expectant eyes, hoping to get his consent.

After hearing his words, Xiao Weiguo was deeply moved. He gave a big thumbs up to these two loyal and righteous men.

Although I'm not doing very well myself, I always cherish the brotherhood in my heart; that's the bond between comrades-in-arms.

In Xiao Weiguo's view, this is the most profound emotion in the world, an emotion forged with life, blood, countless life-and-death experiences, and countless times of mutual reliance.

But he still shook his head and said to Luo Yongjun.

"I am deeply moved by your concern for your comrades, but I must regret to inform you that I cannot help you with this matter."

"Chairman Xiao, this..."

Yu Wengui, who was clearly not very good with words, was obviously taken aback by Xiao Weiguo's answer.

For an entrepreneur like him, helping the families of his comrades-in-arms was no big deal; to put it simply, it was just a matter of asking. But Xiao Weiguo still refused, which left him somewhat disappointed.

But neither of them could do anything about it. After all, they were asking for help; if the other person was willing to help, that was a favor; if they weren't, that was their right. There was no reason to force them to do it.

Luo Yongjun reached out and stopped Yu Wengui, who was about to speak. He then spoke.

"Chairman Xiao, we were abrupt. We apologize."

Xiao Weiguo continued to shake his head.

“There’s nothing to apologize for. The reason I’m not helping you with this is because your comrades are brothers and family to you, but to me, they are just strangers who defended the country for me. There are too many people like that, and even if I wanted to help, I couldn’t help them all.”

“The country has given them what they are entitled to. What you want to help with is what your brothers want to give, so I can’t help with this.”

He then changed the subject and continued.

"but......"
