The days that followed were peaceful again.
Phil didn't say anything, but Luke knew what the black egg was.
The later it was, the more ruthless it would be.
The longer this peaceful day lasts, the greater the cleansing of Hydra will be.
There was no way to hide it.
As long as the black egg became suspicious, it would be even scarier than a wife suspecting her husband of cheating.
The wife might still be stupid and make a fuss, but the black egg would only silently accumulate strength before crushing the opponent in one fell swoop, and not give the opponent a chance to turn the tables.
During this period of time, something that was neither too big nor too small happened.
Foggy showed Luke the recent results of the home improvement company.
It had been a small matter at first, and Luke hadn't paid much attention to it. It would be fine as long as the brats obediently moved bricks to make money.
In the end, this new company that had just been established actually started a second expansion.
With the support of Little Snail's almost omniscient and timely information on the damage to the houses, the home improvement company's business quickly increased.
Since they didn't have enough manpower, a few old workers pulled in some ordinary workers, and the brats also found some of their friends who hadn't joined the company immediately because they hadn't been able to see the future clearly.
Just like that, in just two months, the home improvement company expanded from a grassroots team to a small and medium-sized company with more than forty employees.
As the company expanded, the lack of management ability immediately became apparent. There were frequent problems with manpower and resources, which greatly affected everyone's efficiency at work and making money.
This wasn't a problem that a few old workers and Foggy, a lawyer, could solve.
For the company's stable development, it had to have a proper manager.
Then, Foggy used his personal connections to find someone to be the CEO of the home improvement company.
Looking at the "Benjamin Parker" on the list of new members, Luke scratched his head. "How did you find this person?"
Foggy thought he had doubts about this choice. After all, the Americans also had similar expressions when it came to soldiers and generals.
He quickly explained, "A friend of mine helped him deal with some legal matters and confirmed that he's honest, reliable, and sincere. He's suitable for this position."
Luke thought for a moment and roughly understood what was going on.
Ben had a good temper, but he was well-behaved and serious. He was indeed a good candidate.
Now that the old workers in this company felt that they were more qualified and the young men saw the results, they were a little arrogant recently. Some people even dared to shout slogans like dominating New York.
This was not a bad thing, but if everyone in the company was like this, the probability of it becoming a bad thing was very high.
In any case, with the support of Luke's intelligence, the home improvement company wasn't short of business. They were just worried that they would lose the attitude of doing things in a down-to-earth manner.
People like Ben, who were down-to-earth, hardworking, and principled, could suppress the "collective arrogance" of the new company.
Luke nodded. "Okay. As long as he can stabilize the company, he will also get a share of the stock option reward. "
Foggy said, "That's for the best. After all, I'm just a lawyer. It's not professional for me to manage a home improvement company. "
Luke smiled. "You and Matt are also shareholders of this company. You also have options. If there's a problem in the future, you still have to take care of it."
Foggy was stunned. "Me too? This … there's no need for that. "
He had been busy for so long, but he had never thought of getting any benefits from this home improvement company.
For the community reconstruction work, he and Matt had taken out a portion of the fixed monthly donations that the firm received, and filled in a total of 100,000 yuan, before setting up a home improvement company from scratch.
But Foggy had never considered taking shares.
Luke waved his hand. "It's settled. You and Matt are shareholders, so the company can hand over the legal issues to you. It's up to you how to settle the accounts. If you don't take shares, you're outsiders. Those brats will probably have a lot of ideas. "
Foggy pondered for a moment.
The kids in the Clinton area did indeed have a lot of problems.
Without him and Matt to keep them in check, the old workers might not be able to control them.
However, the mothers of these brats were frequent visitors to the firm. With one call from Foggy, these brats would be beaten up by their mothers.
Furthermore, he and Matt were "natives" of the Clinton area. Their characters had been proven for a long time, and the brats weren't stupid.
Trusting these two local "big brothers" was naturally more reliable than trusting the old workers. At the very least, these two local "big brothers" wouldn't cheat them of their hard-earned money.
Thinking that, Foggy finally nodded. "I can accept it, but I don't need too many options. 1% will do. You'll have to talk to Matt. I'm not confident I can convince him. "
Luke chuckled. "If Matt doesn't accept it, tell him to set up a time. I'll talk to him slowly until he's convinced. But what the hell is a 1% option? How much money is this company worth? Are you going to use 1% to buy toilet paper? Don't forget who the absolute majority shareholder is. Don't bargain with me. You and Matt each get 10%. It's settled. "
Saying that, he got up to leave.
Foggy felt a headache coming on. "Hey, even if it's just a pack of toilet paper, you can't give me ten times as much, right?"
Luke just chuckled. "If you have the time to worry about that, why don't you find an opportunity to talk to your ex-girlfriend? Give her some pillow talk, and then help you find a few suitable candidates. Wouldn't it be better to get a legal intern in the firm? Of course, if you want to poach her, I'd be happy to see it happen. "
Foggy's face instantly turned red. "Don't, don't talk nonsense. What pillow talk? I-I was just a normal relationship, okay?"
Luke laughed. "I know, I know. You guys are very pure. Bye bye."
Ignoring Foggy, who was conflicted in the office, he went downstairs and went home.
He found it a little strange that Peter's Uncle Ben was actually going to work at his home improvement company.
In his previous life, he had watched Spiderman when he was still a middle school student. After that, he went to college and worked for more than ten years.
The last thing that left a deep impression on him was the phrase "with great power comes great responsibility." Then, it seemed that Peter's Uncle Ben had been mistakenly killed by some hooligan.
Thus, he had to make the security in Clinton better. He couldn't let a good man like him die for no reason because of a job as the CEO of a home improvement company!
That way, May, a kind woman, wouldn't have to suffer the pain of losing her husband, and Peter would have an uncle to set an example for him. When he grew up, he would still be that righteous but simple and down-to-earth Spiderman.
While he was making this decision, a man and a woman were chatting in a police car that was patrolling the streets.
"Boss, are we in the wrong place?" The speaker was a young African American woman with long, fluffy, curly hair. She said as she drove.
In the passenger seat, a middle-aged white man was scanning the streets. "Why? Misty, do you want to go home and rest early today? "
