"President, I've found them."
"Dead or alive?" Chen Zhao asked.
"Do you want them dead or alive?"
"If it's convenient, keep them alive. Our new headquarters even built a dungeon. It's not good to leave it empty. We have to send something in."
"Understood."
Klaus and his team had done their best.
They'd only been in the association for less than a month and had already received a huge gift.
His wine was still at home, and some of the others had already taken action.
They were overjoyed to sell it for $250,000.
It was real money. Klaus felt that the wine would definitely increase in value, so he didn't plan on selling it for now.
Plus, they'd just joined the association, so they had to perform.
Especially since they were a special group of people.
They didn't know magic, so they had to show their worth.
Chen Zhao was also impressed by Klaus and his team's training.
It had only been less than two days, and he had actually found the person.
Chen Zhao didn't know Klaus and his team well.
In the past, they'd always fought with terrorists.
This time, they were looking for a group of poachers.
It wasn't difficult at all. Chen Zhao found them almost effortlessly.
Now that they'd caught them, Chen Zhao was in a good mood again.
However, he planned on setting up some things in his territory.
He didn't want his enemies to think about it and cause the people around him to get into trouble for no reason.
"Chen, I'll take Gerlyn to the supermarket. You want to come?"
Woof, woof —
Before Chen Zhao could reply, Black-Ma and White-Ma ran over excitedly.
"Do you guys still want to go?" Fali ignored Chen Zhao's reply and asked the other pets.
Princess walked slowly to Fali, followed by Walter.
"Darling, don't just stay at home," Fali said to Chen Zhao before leaving. "Go for a walk or find Mr. Steven and the others for a drink."
Because it was close to Christmas, Chen Zhao's business had decreased a lot.
In the past ten days, Chen Zhao hadn't gone out at all.
Fali was afraid that Chen Zhao would be too free.
Chen Zhao was too lazy to go out. He'd rather stay at home.
Oh, since it was almost Christmas, he should give the association a red packet.
For foreigners, Christmas was like Chinese New Year.
Let's give everyone a red packet then.
Then, he remembered that Felwood Cisco and his engineering team were still in the headquarters. He couldn't forget about them.
"Mr. Felwood, can I ask you something?"
"What is it? Mr. Chen? "
"I would like to ask, how many people are helping me with the construction?"
"Mr. Chen, is there something wrong with my construction team?"
"No, I'm just asking."
"A total of 45 people, Mr. Chen. They are all professionals. I believe in their professionalism. They won't be lazy or violate the construction agreement."
"Is it accurate?" Chen Zhao asked.
"Yes, if you don't believe me, I can give you the name list of our construction team."
"There's no need for that. You guys go ahead."
With that, he hung up.
Felwood Cisco, on the other hand, was filled with worry. Chen Zhao's sudden call made it impossible for him to calm down.
What did Chen Zhao's call mean?
Felwood Cisco thought about it anxiously for more than two hours, but he still felt uneasy.
"Hey, Tammy, gather all the construction team leaders for a meeting."
Soon, all the project leaders were in front of Felwood Cisco.
"Did your people do anything illegal in the past two days?"
"Boss, they're all honest."
"Apart from one who asked for leave, I didn't find anything illegal."
Felwood Cisco thought for a long time and realized that there was nothing wrong.
"Did any construction materials go missing at the construction site?"
"Boss, did you find some theft?"
The foremen thought that there had been a theft at the construction site.
Although America was a developed country, the unemployment rate was extremely high.
Especially for low-skilled workers like them, they could be easily replaced.
For an American, unemployment often means despair.
One shouldn't think that everything would be fine just because they had unemployment insurance. Unemployment insurance couldn't satisfy their credit card payments.
Once they lost their jobs, they would lose their houses, cars, and even their families.
There were so many homeless people in America. Many of them even had extremely high academic qualifications.
Just because they lost their jobs once, they lost everything and were unable to recover from it.
Therefore, when they heard that there had been a theft at the construction site, they all became nervous.
The biggest problem at a construction site wasn't death, but theft.
Just then, there was a hurried knock on the door of the simple meeting room.
"Boss, Mr. Chen is here," a worker said hurriedly.
Everyone was terrified. They thought that Chen Zhao was here to get even with them.
Felwood Cisco's mind also went blank.
"Come with me to see Mr. Chen."
When Felwood Cisco and his men saw Chen Zhao walk over, they looked troubled.
Chen Zhao walked up and gave Felwood a big red packet.
"This is for you."
"Mr. Chen … This …"
Felwood thought that it was a lawyer's letter.
"You have a share too. Come." Chen Zhao glanced past Felwood and gave each person behind him a red packet.
"This … this much money?" A foreman opened the red packet. "Mr. Chen, what does this mean?"
Felwood also opened the red packet. It was a brand new stack of bills.
They were all hundred-dollar bills. It should be twenty thousand dollars.
"Mr. Chen … This …"
"We Chinese have the tradition of giving red packets during Chinese New Year. Usually, we give them to our juniors or subordinates, but we give them during Chinese New Year. You Americans don't have Chinese New Year, so I'll give them to you before Christmas," Chen Zhao said. "I just asked you about the number of people in your team. I'm afraid that some people won't have enough if you give too little red packets."
Felwood's tears almost fell out. He was almost scared to tears by Chen Zhao's call.
"Can you call all your people over? I want to give them the red packets personally."
"Go, hurry up and call someone," Felwood immediately shouted.
Hearing that there was money, the construction workers immediately came to line up.
Chen Zhao personally gave the red packets to the construction workers one by one.
Felwood looked at Chen Zhao. In just a short while, he'd already given out two to three hundred thousand dollars.
There was twenty thousand in his red packet, ten thousand for the other foremen, and five thousand for the regular construction workers.
"Mr. Chen, I'll get the construction team to finish the house as soon as possible."
"Don't worry. I gave all my subordinates a long holiday. They're going to Cape Town to play in a few days. Even if you finish the house, it'll be empty. You just have to finish the house according to the contract."
Felwood sighed at Chen Zhao's generosity again. Just then, a Native American worker ran over.
"Mr. Chen, this is the custom of our Wala tribe. To show respect, you have to offer our tribe's totem, Ah Zu. Please accept it."
