Sheng Quan had long guessed that Jiang Lu was a very capable retired soldier, but he didn't expect that he was even more capable than he thought.
"Grandmaster level..."
She almost broke the candied haws stick in her hand.
He has a military rank, so even after retirement, his pension is still very good. But, such a big boss at the division level is actually willing to be her bodyguard consultant.
Jiang Lu: "Officers can choose their own jobs after retirement. This is in line with regulations."
"I know it complies with the regulations, but don't retired officers of this level generally receive a lot of pensions?" Sheng Quan didn't think that a retired officer at the division level would come to her company for money.
Even if he is the type who cannot sit still, he can at most find some leisurely job nearby. Why would he be willing to travel thousands of miles to Shanghai at such an old age?
She figured it out almost immediately, looked at Jiang Lu, and said with certainty: "You must have said something nice about me to him."
Jiang Lu's tough face showed a rare hint of shame. He lowered his eyes uncomfortably: "I was just telling the truth."
"The commander was a little moved when he learned that the company was recruiting retired and disabled soldiers. He has always been very concerned about these things." Jiang Lu thought for a moment and added, "It may also be that the salary and benefits you offer are too good, so the commander can't help but be a little worried."
Sheng Quan understood immediately.
Indeed, she had wanted to open a bodyguard company for a long time, and had already looked up all the relevant information.
The quality of bodyguards in China has always been uneven. After all, the environment is different. Bosses hire bodyguards either to save face or to expect the bodyguards to double as thugs. The income of bodyguards is definitely higher than that of ordinary jobs, but it will not be too outrageous.
The company’s own commission must also be taken into consideration.
After all, there are initial costs for opening a company, renting a place, decorating, building a training base, and various long-term trainings. If the company wants to make money, the income of a bodyguard will not be too high.
Therefore, it is understandable that bodyguards provide fewer services. They just do what they are paid for.
As for those more famous bodyguard companies, their fees are outrageously expensive. If Sheng Quan was an ordinary rich person, she might consider hiring from them, but she is not ordinary!
Considering that 006 is still working diligently to make money, Sheng Quan, who has the self-awareness of a wealthy man, feels that it is safer to keep his life in the hands of his own people.
She was preparing for a rainy day, but in the eyes of the teacher, a newly opened bodyguard company that hasn't even started to take business is offering such a high salary. What do you want to do? !
Although the division commander might want to sneak into the "enemy camp" to spy, Sheng Quan acted upright and wanted to applaud this behavior of "spying in person".
Come on, come on, she'll keep one for you.
The company has just been opened, and it has a retired military officer at the division level as a consultant. Even novels dare not write about this.
Sheng Quan was eating a candied haws, thinking that she had traveled through a book, had a super-rich system, and had a teacher come to serve as a consultant. She was simply a Mary Sue. Maybe she could really write a novel.
But think about it, every day she is either wandering around, or watching TV series and novels, occasionally reading and studying, and then she is in class (yes, the legendary CEO course) and she is dying.
This life is even more boring than a diary. Even if it were written into a novel, there would be nothing to read.
In short, Sheng Quan fully supports this teacher's willingness to serve as a consultant.
"Since you have been trained by him, his salary should be increased. Not only will he be provided with food and accommodation, but he will also be given a separate large room with a courtyard at the base. The company will also provide furniture and other services. He will also receive annual physical examinations and paid vacations."
As Sheng Quan expected, 60% of the reason why the commander came to the Magic City was for Jiang Lu, and he also wanted to personally explore Sheng Quan's bottom line.
He didn't like flying, so as soon as he got off the train, he saw Jiang Lu at the pick-up point.
The tall man stood there, no longer subconsciously hiding himself like before. Although it could be seen that he was deliberately restraining his aura, his sharp eyes had inexplicably softened a lot.
Jiang Lu has sharp and handsome features. He is tall and strong, and his clothes are
His muscles formed a beautiful curve, and when he didn't try to hide it, some men and women passing by would always look at him a few more times.
When the teacher was feeling comforted, Jiang Lu had already walked over with his long legs.
His legs are longer than others, and although he seems to walk neither fast nor slow, he is faster than others.
"You must be tired. The hotel has been arranged."
He easily took the luggage bag from the commander's hand, and a rare light smile appeared on his face.
"You little brat! You just left without saying anything. You haven't even sent me a letter in such a long time!"
The commander punched Jiang Lu in the chest, complained, looked him up and down, but smiled uncontrollably: "Not bad, you are in good spirits. I told you a long time ago, young man, why are you so depressed? You are not an old man like me. You are only in your early thirties and look so handsome. You should dress yourself up like you are now."
Jiang Lu let his commander nag at him and ask about his injuries. Even though he had already asked about them over the phone, he still had to see it in person.
When the commander wanted to see, Jiang Lu just carried the luggage bag silently and let the other party look him up and down, left and right.
They got into the car only after the commander had looked at it with satisfaction.
Seeing the obviously expensive luxury car, the teacher raised his eyebrows and asked, "Did Miss Sheng lend this to you?"
"Yes, Miss Sheng values you very much. You are tired today, so she will treat you to a meal tomorrow and discuss your treatment with you in person."
Jiang Lu drove the car and looked ahead: "Don't worry, Miss Sheng is very law-abiding."
The teacher laughed: "You know what I'm thinking and you still coax me to come. It seems that this Miss Sheng is not only law-abiding, but also someone you trust very much."
Jiang Lu did not deny it, although they both knew that another major reason was that the teacher's wife had passed away, his children were not around, and the granddaughter he raised with him had just been admitted to university and left home.
It is better to keep these words in your heart and there is no need to speak them out loud, just like the teacher would not ask how you were doing during the period when Jiang Lu had not yet come to terms with it.
Arriving at the hotel, Jiang Lu escorted the commander to the room, checked inside and outside as usual, and tried the hot water appliance before preparing to leave:
"I'll pick you up tomorrow morning."
The commander waved his hand: "Let's go."
Jiang Lu walked to the door, then stopped, turned back hesitantly, pursed his lips slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but was choosing his words.
However, the teacher looked up and saw his expression, and couldn't help but smile: "Okay, don't worry, when I meet our employer tomorrow, I promise I won't be so harsh and won't scare her."
Jiang Lu said seriously: "Miss Sheng is very powerful, she won't be scared."
Teacher: "? Then what do you want to tell me?"
Jiang Lu paused.
Two seconds later, the tall man spoke: "Good night, I wish you a sweet dream."
The commander was stunned, and saw that Jiang Lu had quickly closed the door and disappeared from his sight.
If the "Do Not Disturb" sign on the door hadn't been shaking slightly, he would have thought he had heard it wrong because of his age.
Jiang Lu! This guy actually said good night to him? And wished him a sweet dream?!
What's the difference between this and the sudden meow of a ferocious beast that can scare people to death? Because of Jiang Lu's behavior, the commander was a little doubtful when he lay down on the bed whether he was hallucinating. Before going to bed, the scene of the last time he saw Jiang Lu appeared in his mind:
The young man who was once so sharp and full of arrogance turned around with his bag on his back, his heavy eyes were filled with dead silence. He forced a pale smile: - "I will come to see you when I get better."
It was more like a consolation than a promise.
And now, that day has come.
The teacher was lying on the comfortable big bed, and before closing his eyes he was still thinking:
Well, for Jiang Lu's sake, as long as the company is formal, it is not impossible to make a difference for a few years.
Sheng Quan didn't know yet that her master had decided to give her a good job. She was reading the overseas promotion plan for "The Cultivator".
Yes, it is unlikely to expect a drama to become popular all over the country as soon as it is released because of its excellent quality, and to reap the overseas market at the same time.
At least if we want to achieve the same popularity as the Shengquan Project, we still need all kinds of vigorous publicity and preparation behind it.
Although promotion and marketing are matters of the later stages, most promising movies will prepare various plans early on, and even lay the groundwork a year in advance. If everything really depends on "coincidence" or "accident", the investors behind the scenes will not be able to make money.
Sheng Quan was reading and making comments at the same time. All those classes she attended were not in vain. At least now Mr. Sheng could clearly feel his own progress.
But having said that, classes still have to go on. After all, Gu Zhao, the king of exams, is taking time to attend classes. Although Sheng Quan doesn't want to compete with him (mainly because he can't win), when he thinks about his future huge business empire, he instantly becomes full of ambition.
Director Sheng, who was turning a pen while reading and studying, heard some noise coming from the corridor. He looked up and saw that it was Jiang Lu who had gone out to pick someone up.
"I'm back, Brother Jiang. Is everything going well? How's the old man doing?"
"It went very smoothly." Jiang Lu replied, "He is also looking forward to meeting you."
"That's good."
Sheng Quan was extremely happy when he thought that a retired teacher would serve as a consultant for his company.
It's not just that the commander of the back station is confident, Jiang Lu also recommended it, so how could the teaching level be bad?
Moreover, the arrival of the division commander indicated that her envisioned "recruiting veterans" plan would not encounter any problems in its development, and might even get some support from the military.
The pain of studying was swept away, and Sheng Quan smiled and called Jiang Lu to take a rest:
"Brother Jiang, you have worked hard. You should go to bed early. Good night and have a sweet dream."
Jiang Lu's tough face softened slightly, and he responded to his employer as usual:
"Good night, and have a sweet dream."
*** The first meeting with the teacher went very smoothly, even a little too smoothly.
Sheng Quan thought that the old man wanted to "interrogate" her, but nothing happened. After the old man looked through various schedules and contracts, especially focusing on the details of recruiting disabled veterans, he didn't ask any more questions.
She suspected that he must have learned about her background through other means.
But there is nothing to be afraid of.
Under 006's manipulation, Sheng Quan's identity in this world is the second generation who inherited a huge inheritance (006 is the first generation). Because his parents are Chinese and he received Chinese education since childhood, he chose to return to China for development.
The country used to store the "inheritance" was also carefully selected. Even if someone investigated, they would only find that her apparent capital flow was very large, and that there was more than one team hired to make money for her. Every transaction was legal and compliant. Even if the country's government investigated, they would not find any problems.
So Sheng Quan was not at all inferior. Her calm attitude made the teacher look at her with a higher regard. Halfway through the meal, the tone of their conversation became much more intimate.
What he talked about the most was how great Jiang Lu was in the army. Although some confidential information could not be disclosed, it could be said that he praised Jiang Lu comprehensively from head to toe.
"At that time, if this kid was willing, he could have been a public security, procuratorial or judicial official immediately after his transfer, based on his achievements and the treatment he received. But he was unwilling to do so and insisted on leaving."
"Miss Sheng, don't look at him like this. Jiang Lu was the best of the best back then. Even now, I can't get close to him."
Sheng Quan understood that the commander was afraid that she would underestimate Jiang Lu.
It is true that all parents in the world and elders are the same.
She smiled and poured tea for him: "What you said, isn't Brother Jiang very powerful now? But you have helped me solve my doubts. I always thought that Brother Jiang was too powerful."
The commander immediately became alert: "Yes, a powerful person will be powerful wherever he goes. His ability is in him and he will never lose it."
Sheng Quan: "Yes, otherwise I would have first thought of asking Brother Jiang to be a consultant."
The two of them were praising each other back and forth, which made Jiang Lu, who was being praised, stiff all over and didn't know how to react.
After the meal, Sheng Quan and the teacher seemed to get along better and better. The redness on the tips of his ears never went away, and he could only drink cup after cup of tea in silence.
The division commander's name was Qin Guofu, a common name among students of their age. After dinner, they went to take a look at the company and training base that had already been selected.
The company is not big, but it is not small either. Since it is mainly used to receive employers, the decoration is very high-end.
The training base was ridiculously large. Sheng Quan was not using his own land this time, so the place was quite remote. But it was precisely because of this remoteness that it was more suitable for training.
The company has already recruited a group of employees, and the young employee who is smiling and introducing them in front is one of them.
Although it is a new company, the high salary allows her to maintain a very long-lasting and positive work enthusiasm.
"The courses offered by our company not only include fighting skills, but also risk management, fighting, foreign language courses, security deployment, and legal application..."
Qin Guofu looked at them one by one, and the more he looked, the more he nodded in his heart.
Not to mention that this company has clear pensions, just the fact that you have learned so many professional things, even if you really rely on your youth to make a living and can no longer do this job when you get older, you can still live a good life with so many skills.
"Great, great. All right. Tell me in detail what you want. I'll ask my old comrades to find as many people as you need."
Although learning so much seems very hard, Qin Guofu does not take it to heart. Instead, he thinks it is the right thing to do.
He is running a company, not doing charity. If he could just collect money without doing anything, he wouldn't help to make connections.
If he was happy just because he had a good chat at the dinner party, then now Qin Guofu was really happy from the bottom of his heart.
Reemployment of veterans is indeed a problem. They are all good men and women, especially those with strong physical fitness like Jiang Lu. In the army, they only need to keep fit, but when they enter the safe society, these skills are nowhere to be used.
As an officer of the older generation, after realizing that Sheng Quan was really serious about this company, he instantly developed a favorable impression of this young girl.
Anyone who is strong and healthy can do the bodyguard job, but Sheng Quan only recruits veterans, even the disabled ones. Regardless of anything else, Qin Guofu felt his heart.
His way of expressing his gratitude was: "I have to tell my old friends to praise you young people."
Qin Guofu could guess how happy his old friends who were still in the army would be when he told them the news.
Even though Sheng Quan had experienced many ups and downs, he couldn't help but tremble with excitement at this moment.
The commander’s old friends, what kind of people are they?
So, isn't this really a Mary Sue novel? ——Then Mary Sue Sheng Quan spent a few months in a rather uneventful manner.
Until "The Cultivator" was released.
