Chapter 151: Chapter 151: Holding a Small Meeting

At six in the evening, once Ember Vance took Sara Zuck away, Yusuf Zuck and his companions finally headed to Quanjude.

The reason for choosing Quanjude was actually thanks to Jerome Hart, who upon his arrival in the capital, had mentioned his desire to dine there, but it had never come to fruition. Now, with some temporary stability and the scum meeting his end, this meal was also a celebration for everyone.

Fleur Carson had reserved a room long beforehand, and when the party of five arrived upstairs and entered the private room, they asked the waiter to start serving dishes. After some casual conversation, Yusuf Zuck also began to state the purpose of the day’s gathering.

"Didn’t Wen Shuai want to taste authentic roast duck? Well, first off, it’s to welcome Wen Shuai, secondly, it’s a gathering for us brothers to catch up, and lastly, it’s to discuss our future."

Indeed, today’s meal was essentially a mini-conference. While Yusuf didn’t run a company yet, these brothers were living life alongside him, so there were some things he needed to lay out upfront.

"Should I say thank you now?" Jerome Hart grinned and jokingly said, "You’re holding a meeting today, huh? But don’t count me in, I’m just here to mooch a meal!"

"I wasn’t counting you in the first place!" Yusuf laughed and retorted, "I want to thank everyone for taking care of my sister these days. Actually, my sister and I are both from a poor family. None of us were spoiled. It’s just that I’ve been too careless recently, offended quite a few folks, and ended up having my brothers take the trouble for me. Instead of a drink, allow me to salute you all with tea."

"Pfft~" Before anyone else could speak, Fleur Carson scoffed in jest, "Tea doesn’t show sincerity, right everyone?"

"Exactly, exactly, bro, we should be drinking," Dream Morrow chimed in mischievously.

"Nobody’s drinking today, just have some soup, it’ll do. We got work tonight, and there’s a fortune waiting for everyone!" Yusuf didn’t even bother with the tea but was straightforward with his friends, skipping the formalities.

"Alright, before the dishes come, let me talk about my recent changes. I’ll explain how I made a fortune and discuss our future charter." Once Yusuf signaled for everyone’s attention, he thought for a moment and continued, "A few days ago, I went to Zhonghai with Ms. Wilcox, and incidentally came across some broken jade at the antique market. When I got back to the capital and sold them, I made over forty million just like that."

"What?" Upon hearing Yusuf’s story, everyone’s jaw almost hit the floor. So that was how Yusuf’s money came to be—by taking a trip to Zhonghai, he had made over forty million?

"Then, I used some local remedies from my hometown to cure a wealthy developer’s illness and made three million from that, swindled a million from the Brother Dao of Beijing, a million from Fleur Carson, and also got a year’s worth of salary from Ms. Wilcox—over seventy million. That’s about all I have, my entire net worth!"

"Of course, before Ms. Wilcox left, she left me sixty million. That sixty million is a loan from her, so I’ll have to pay it back eventually. I’m planning to invest that sixty million in some business or another!"

"Hmm, all together, it’s about over a hundred million, I’d say. I’ve also acquired a shop in Panjiayuan. It’s a recent purchase, needs renovations, and I haven’t started working on it yet. I’m planning to get into the antique business in the future."

"About tonight’s fortune, actually, it’s a wise man I know who tipped me off. I guess I’ve been lucky recently, as the previous two owners of that shop died unnaturally. After I rented the shop, this wise man told me that beneath the shop, there were malicious items and a lot of treasures buried."

"So tonight, we’re going to my shop to dig out both the malicious thing and the treasures."

"The wise man claims he wants the malicious object, but the treasures are mine. I haven’t appraised the treasures yet, but they should include things like gold bars, ingots, pearls, and agate."

"Bro, what exactly is that malicious thing? It’s not gonna cause any trouble, right?" Dream Morrow and the others wore serious expressions.

"No worries, the wise man said I’m tough enough to suppress that malicious thing. It won’t work on anyone else, so everyone just relax."

"Damn, we’re rich, Yusuf Zuck! Why the hell didn’t you count me in just now? No, no, it’s a must to include me!" Jerome Hart refused to accept it, his face contorted in distress. "I’m so broke I can’t even afford to get married, bro, I’m begging for wealth!"

"It was you who said you didn’t want to be counted, now you’re blaming me!" Yusuf Zuck said with a smile.

"I’ve changed my mind," Jerome Hart clamored.

"Haha..." Everyone burst into laughter.

"That settles it then. So, none of us should drink tonight. It’s crucial we dig out that treasure. Of course, I have no idea how much the treasure is worth, but here’s what I’m thinking."

"So, I’ll take fifty percent of the total value of the treasure, and each of you will get ten percent."

When they heard they could each get ten percent, Samuel Ross and the others all fell silent. Yusuf Zuck was essentially handing them money for free.

What does ’sharing wealth’ mean? This is what it means: Yusuf Zuck could have dug up the treasure all by himself and kept it all, but he didn’t. He just wanted fifty percent, and the other fifty percent was to take care of his brothers.

"Yusuf Zuck, no more words needed. From now on, you’re the boss, we’ll follow your lead!" Samuel Ross was the first to raise his glass!

"Follow your lead!" Pillar and Dream Morrow also raised their glasses, and Fleur Carson filled her cup with tea to join in!

Jerome Hart looked around, then raised his cup as well and said, "Then I guess I’m also ’follow your lead.’ You’re a true brother, enough said—really, just ’follow your lead!’"

"Yeah, let me lay it out upfront," Yusuf Zuck raised his glass as well, addressing everyone. "I originally thought about starting a company or something, but then I thought better of it. I don’t have much education and I’m not cut out for business, so I won’t start a company. And without a company, there will be no so-called salaries for you guys, so this split from the haul, that’s your salary. Paid once, it could last six months or a year. And the next time I distribute any benefits could very well be in the latter half of this year, next year, or the year after. This is what I wanted to tell you."

"I also need to keep things going with my sister," he added.

"And another thing..." Yusuf Zuck paused to think, then said, "If you guys have anything to say, or if you’re lacking something, please tell me. I don’t want us to become enemies over money matters. Money is bullshit, it can’t replace love and righteousness."

"We all understand, no more words needed. As long as we stick with you, you won’t ever let us down!" Samuel Ross said with a smile, "Bros, let’s also toast to Yusuf Zuck. Tea in place of liquor—to prosperity and big fortune, as brothers, for a lifetime!"

"Here we go!" They clinked their glasses together and downed their drinks in one go.

"There’s another thing," Yusuf Zuck suddenly remembered after downing his tea. "Once things settle down in a few days, everyone will take a turn to go on vacation, and the purpose of the vacation is to head back to your hometowns to get a passport. In the future, we might travel abroad. We’ve got money, why not see if foreign money is easy to make?" Yusuf Zuck had long thought about making a fortune overseas. With his abilities to become invisible and use telekinesis, if he went to places like Las Vegas or Macau to gamble big, he could win enough to turn the sky upside down and the earth over!

To make a fortune, one doesn’t necessarily need to start a company or run a business!
