Chapter 378 Money Ability Failure
Zhang Ailun glanced at other related news and put away his phone. Bailey happened to have finished his breakfast, so he called the waitress next to him to clean the table.
The two of them were flirting with each other during this period, but the leader simply ignored it.
Not long after, Madison came over with his granddaughter on crutches. He looked at the two people in the hall, laughed, waved and said hello, "Good morning, Mr. Jin. How was your rest last night?"
"Not bad, how about you?" Zhang Ailun also nodded and replied, "You slept so late last night, it's rare to see you get up so early."
"Late? This is just a normal routine for me." Madison didn't mind the chief's teasing. He was helped by his granddaughter to sit on the sofa. "I just got up and received treatment from a private doctor. The diagnosis showed that I was in good health. I also followed his advice. You all enjoyed yourself last night, but I didn't, and I didn't take any medicine."
"Should I give you a compliment?" Zhang Ailun teased.
"That's not necessary, you just need to prepare to celebrate my , 90th, or even th birthday in advance." Madison laughed.
"Before you say these words, I still suggest you read the news first." Zhang Ailun gestured to the other party to watch TV.
Madison glanced at the news on TV after hearing this, feeling somewhat puzzled. After understanding the situation, he immediately said with disdain, "What the hell? Are modern pirates popular again in South America and the Caribbean? These media outlets just love sensationalism."
"I don't think so." Zhang Ailun said with a smile: "When you pull out a carrot, you bring out the dirt. The fall of Haitian General Assad also exposed the inside stories of some rich people, as well as the drug smuggling trade, which indirectly led to several high-level politicians in South America and made many people in the world pay attention to the place of Solo Island. Some people can't sleep well at night now."
Zhang Ailun teased, "Have you not paid attention to the hottest topic on the Internet? Even my Jehovah Island and your Collection Island have been criticized because of this incident. Those poor people at the bottom of society are even shouting that they will spontaneously form an armed force to fight and rob you!"
"Is there such a thing?" Madison was shocked when he heard this. He quickly asked his granddaughter to help him take out the phone, put on his reading glasses and studied it carefully for a while. After reading it, he was speechless.
"I thought someone was really going to cause trouble for me, but it turns out it's just some people talking nonsense on the Internet..."
"Don't worry, these people can't do anything big, they are just selfish ostriches. If they really encounter a big disaster, they will just stick their heads into the ground, trying to hide their faults, not admitting it, and wanting others to save them. The reason why the poor are poor is that they don't have independent thinking and are easily instigated and exploited, especially on the Internet. But at the same time, they who claim to be normal people never dare to break the law easily."
Madison smiled and waved his hand, "After all, without the law to protect them, they will really become a piece of meat on the table."
Zhang Allen looked at the old man with a slave owner's face and aristocratic demeanor, and was speechless. He nodded and said, "I hope it's true, but in order to celebrate your birthday in the next few decades, I still suggest that you don't show up in public recently, and don't attend any auctions. Keep a low profile, and strengthen the security measures on the island as much as possible."
Collection Island is not like Jehovah Island. It is closer to California, the mainland of the United States. It can be reached in the blink of an eye by speedboat or plane. If there really is a madman who is lurking there with a bomb and wants to die together with Madison, it will be unstoppable.
Unlike Jehovah Island, which is far from the American continent and the shipping route is dangerous. If you just arrived there and haven't found Jehovah Island, you might encounter smugglers first.
Those guys are not vegetarians. The most dangerous place is also the safest place. At least they will not be easily involved in this whirlpool of public opinion and avoid being harassed by some garbage.
After listening to the chief's suggestion, Madison carefully considered it and nodded. "Let's do as you say. I was originally planning to attend an auction in Las Vegas. There is an antique vase there that I like, but seeing that the recent momentum is a little strange, I'd better stay out of the spotlight."
Turning to his granddaughter, he said, "Go contact Twitter and other online platforms and ask them to minimize the risk of public opinion, divert the public opinion, and block all entries about me. I don't care how much they pay, but at least don't bother me. I'm old and can't stand it."
"Okay, Grandpa." The granddaughter said and got up and left. Zhang Ailun was also a little surprised, "You are willing to spend money. What does your granddaughter do?"
Madison smiled and said, "She is currently working as an intern reporter at a newspaper and often travels around Hollywood. I contacted their boss yesterday and plan to invest in that newspaper media company. She will be able to become a full-time employee soon."
Zhang Ailun agrees with this deeply. This is how money power works. Please understand it.
The two chatted for a while, and it was noon in a blink of an eye. Zhang Ailun suddenly received a message from Old Jack. He opened his phone and saw that it was their outline of actions.
Sure enough, it was related to the news about the truck accident that Blitz had sent before. It recorded in detail how they committed the crime and what methods they used to take advantage of large trucks, traffic lights and damaged cameras, leading to the accidental death of the target person.
Zhang Ailun: Well done. No one noticed during the process?
Old Jack: Does it count if there’s a dog on the scene?
Zhang Ailun: If the dog could speak human language, then it would still need to be killed.
Old Jack: Oh my God, man, you are so cruel. Be careful or the animal protection association will come to your house to cause trouble.
Zhang Ailun: Lao Deng, you can even deal with people quietly, but you can't deal with a dog?
Old Jack: Who said that? Of course I can solve it. It's easy to use poison or other methods, but there's no need. Killing a dog is actually much more difficult than killing a person, because dogs are so sensitive. If they are forced into a corner, they will resist and jump over the wall, but people can only run and be scared to death.
Allen Zhang: Where are you now? How many goals do you have?
Old Jack: We can finish it in the afternoon. We chose to act separately. After all, we knew their action plan and daily routine in advance. We only needed to place explosives on the flying vehicles in advance and send people to wait nearby. Watching them die was like death coming, all coincidence. It could be as short as two or three days, and as long as a week!
Zhang Ailun: Ok, you did a great job.
Old Jack: I've finished the work at hand. Violet and Zorro will take care of the rest. I'm ready to go back. You'd better prepare your bonus too!
Zhang Ailun: Meet at the villa.
After chatting with Old Jack for a few more sentences, he put away his phone and looked at Madison who was talking so eloquently. The leader felt a little uncomfortable sitting here and decided to leave.
He stood up, called Bailey, and said hello to Madison.
"Are you leaving now? Not staying a little longer?" Madison stopped talking, looking a little regretful.
"There's nothing to do here. I have a big family and a big business, but I'm very busy, unlike you who are already semi-retired." Zhang Ailun smiled and said, "I will choose to retire someday, and I'll have plenty of time to enjoy myself."
"Okay, I'll have someone take you there," Madison nodded. "No, we can just drive there ourselves, and pick up the two black panther cubs at the zoo." Zhang Allen waved his hand and led Bailey out of the villa lobby.
"Don't worry, I've asked someone to help you with the procedures for raising the animal. It doesn't matter even if we're caught at the airport." Madison also went out to see them off and watched the two of them get into a bulletproof car.
"Thank you so much." Zhang Ailun smiled, waved at him, and closed the car door.
After fastening his seatbelt, he turned to Bailey and teased, "Why don't you go talk to your new lover?"
"We will communicate on the phone. If it's really not suitable, then forget it." Bailey shrugged his shoulders with an indifferent look on his face. He was obviously awakened by the chief's teachings.
"Let's drive." Zhang Ailun said, then leaned back in the leather seat and said no more.
Bailey also started the car and took a detour to the zoo area. He soon arrived at the target location and parked on the roadside. The staff nearby also received Madison's instructions. The keeper carried the cage with two black panther cubs and handed them to Bailey, and repeatedly reminded him of the details of the breeding.
"Since it's so troublesome to take care of them, you might as well go with our boss. There are so many breeders here anyway. How much salary can Madison give you? Our boss will definitely give you more than him!" Bailey joked.
The breeder looked at the chief in the back seat of the car in astonishment.
Zhang Ailun also thought this was a good idea, and immediately asked with a smile: "It just so happens that I also have the idea of building a zoo area on the island. Although the investment will not be too much, it also requires professionals in this area. Sir, what is your name?"
"Spencer." The breeder looked a little embarrassed. He didn't expect to be interviewed suddenly.
"How much does Madison pay you?" Zhang Allen asked.
"According to the salary level of our senior breeders in California, the hourly wage is between and dollars, averaging 20 dollars. However, Mr. Madison pays us much higher than the average level. My hourly wage is 25 to 30 dollars. I am mainly responsible for taking care of the daily life of large carnivores, including training them for interaction and commands. I also need to be able to provide emergency treatment to them when necessary, and be able to deal with some minor anorexia and inflammation problems. That's it, sir." Spencer said nervously.
"Is the salary of a senior breeder so high?" Zhang Ailun was a little surprised. It was almost as high as hiring an excellent mercenary.
After thinking about it, I immediately invited him, "Spencer, do you want to come to work on my island? I'll pay you $35 an hour, and you just need to help me take care of these two black panthers and let them thrive. Oh, and there may also be an experimental pig with human organs in its body. It should be in good condition at the moment, and its vitality is very strong. I may also introduce other animals that you are interested in later."
"I'm sorry, Mr. Jin, please allow me to refuse. But it's not because of the money, but because some things cannot be measured by money, because my relationship with Xueli is too good, I can't bear to leave her."
The leader thought he had a sure win, but he didn't expect Spencer to be a middle-aged man with faith. Even though his hair had fallen out, after considering it for second, he resolutely rejected the leader's invitation.
"Sydney is your wife? Then let's go together." Bailey said.
"Is Sydney the big black panther?" asked Zhang Ailun.
"That's right. I've loved getting along with all kinds of animals since I was a kid. I've also taken exams to learn about this and even thought about going to the African savannah to live with the animals. I've been in this business for over 18 years and have come into contact with many animals. Xueli is also a very obedient and sensible girl. I've invested a lot of affection in her and I can't leave her for the time being."
Spencer said seriously, "I also hope you can take good care of Sydney's children. To be honest, they are only a few days old and have to leave their mother. If they are not properly cared for, they will be at risk of dying. But after all, I am not their real owner, and I cannot ignore Mr. Madison's words."
Zhang Ailun thought: "You are a person who truly understands animals. I respect your ideas."
He glanced at the two little black panthers in the co-pilot's seat and said, "Then you should take them back first. They are so young and it is easy for them to die. I was inconsiderate. Wait two weeks until they grow up a little, and then I will contact Madison to airlift them over."
"Thank you so much, Mr. King, you are such a good person who loves animals!" Spencer was very grateful.
"Haha." Zhang Ailun chuckled. In this day and age, as long as you love animals, you are a good person? That would be so easy to be a good person.
But no one said much, because Spencer was obviously a very rare and pure person in society.
Only after Bailey handed the black panther cub back to the other party did he wave goodbye to Spencer.
"If you lose your job one day and still want to do the same job, you can come to me. I guarantee that I can give you a satisfactory salary," said Zhang Ailun.
"Thank you, Mr. Jin, and I wish you a safe journey." Spencer said gratefully while holding the cage. He watched the vehicle turn around and leave, and its taillights disappeared at the intersection. Then he turned around and went back to the zoo.
Madison on the other side was also very surprised after hearing the news. She suddenly felt that she knew too little about her employees.
After thinking about it, I made a new decision immediately.
"Give Spencer a promotion and a raise, and have him take over the position of the original director and be responsible for taking good care of my animals. Having someone like him on the island must be very reliable."
"Ah? But the previous principal did a good job." Smith's son was a little surprised.
"He did well? Then just blame his bad luck." Madison laughed and said indifferently, "I didn't see whether he did well or not. Luck is also a part of strength. Besides, I just demoted him, not fired him."
"..." Smith was speechless, you might as well just fire me. But in the end, he still did what his father said.
At the other side of the island airport, vehicles arrived at the runway and the chief leader had already boarded the return flight. He was unaware of what had happened on the island.
But the little Black Panther got better care, Spencer got a promotion and a raise, both were happy, and everyone had a better future, but the director had to bear the brunt of it all.
Where is the director?
The head teacher fainted in the toilet after learning the devastating news.
