501: Chapter 500: Maurice Singleton’s Plan 501: Chapter 500: Maurice Singleton’s Plan Though it was late at night, the cargo ship was particularly lively.
The chubby cook made a fire on the spot, taking out fresh at and vegetables, while everyone else gathered around Yusuf Zuck and sat down.
They were old friends after all, and with Yusuf Zuck being so polite and generous, their reunion was naturally joyful.
Over a million US Dollars hadn’t been divided yet, but Yusuf Zuck had already inford everyone that the captain and the first officer would get a larger share.
This was his proposal, so naturally, nobody objected, which eased the minds of Captain Su and First Officer Hart, avoiding any trouble that might co with divvying up the money later on.
“Little Chicken and Little Gu are making their way in South Arica, and after making a fortune in the United States, I ca back.
I couldn’t get used to living in the U.S.
After traveling thousands of miles, ho is still the best.
I missed ho so much when I was abroad!”
Yusuf Zuck calculated the ti and realized that over five months had passed; it was now the end of July or the beginning of August.
“Little brother, do you have any plans after you get back ho?
Why don’t you join us?
How about being a captain?”
“Ha ha.” Captain Su’s remark made everyone burst into laughter.
“That’s not a bad idea, but I’m planning to get my own ship, then dive for treasure at sea.
You all know that I’ve been treasure hunting in the sea last ti.
To be frank with you, I really found a lot of treasures underwater—big nuggets of gold, huge diamonds, and even ancient sunken ships.”
“So, after I get back to my country, I will probably get a ship and sail out to sea.
The only thing is, I still need a captain and sailors, no one is available, so if you guys want to strike it rich, sign up early!” Yusuf Zuck was eting these people again, and it was fate.
After discovering so many treasures in the sea last ti, he indeed intended to create a treasure-hunting fleet, and Captain Su and First Officer Hart were the perfect candidates!
“Really?” Everyone was surprised.
The last ti Yusuf Zuck was on board, he had dived into the sea on nurous occasions, and he was particularly adept at holding his breath underwater, so he had explored a lot of seabeds.
“I never tell lies.
I also know you are all on contract and not formally employed by any official enterprise.
You can’t do this sailor job forever, but on my ship, you can do it for a lifeti.
And as you’re aware, I don’t care about money, so when we find treasure, you will certainly be rewarded handsoly!”
“I’m in!
Once I return to my country this ti, I’ll resign,” declared Captain Su, the first to respond.
He spent years at sea, making long international voyages, and only earned a few hundred thousand a year.
But if Yusuf Zuck really got a ship and found treasure, then wouldn’t his earnings be far more than just a few hundred thousand?
“I’m in too, little brother…
No, sorry, Boss Zuck, just don’t let and the captain be disappointed!” First Officer Hart and the captain were close as brothers.
Since they weren’t formal employees anyway, as long as they could make big money at sea, it didn’t matter where they worked.
“We’re in too, following Boss Zuck from now on, ha ha.” Everyone burst into laughter again, confident that Boss Zuck would not let them down.
“You guys have got guts!” Yusuf Zuck raised his glass, looked around at everyone, and said, “You didn’t ask how much the monthly salary would be, didn’t ask about future security, but still agreed on the spot—this surprised .
Let thank you all first.
Here’s to us!”
“Here’s to us!” Everyone raised their glasses or bowls and emptied the white liquor in one gulp.
“Cheers.” Yusuf Zuck wiped the corner of his mouth and then shouted loudly, “Since you guys are so straightforward, I can’t let you down.
I can tell you clearly here: First, within a month after returning to my country, I’ll bring back a big ship, so you won’t have to wait too long!
Second, from the day you join my new ship, you’ll be official employees of my company.
I don’t care how much you earn now, but I promise you, starting from the first day of employnt, your salary will be double your current salary.
It’s fixed, treasure or no treasure, you’ll get paid—that’s the minimum guarantee!”
“Boss Zuck is straightforward, here’s to us!” The crowd roared in approval.
Yusuf Zuck was truly generous.
Who didn’t get pearls from him last ti?
So hearing that they could earn double the salary, how could they not be excited?
“The third thing is, we will all get rich together!” Yusuf Zuck laughed heartily.
“The food’s ready, the food’s ready…” The fat chef and a few crew mbers began to serve dishes, as prior to this they had been drinking without food.
…
When daylight broke, the inebriated crowd gradually returned to their rooms to sleep.
Yusuf Zuck and Maurice Singleton were each assigned to a guest room, which had been tidied up neatly.
Maurice Singleton hadn’t drunk much, but even so, he marvelled at Yusuf Zuck’s brilliant tactics.
With just a few empty promises, over a million US dollars had been raised, pulling together a team that would truly risk their lives at sea for him in the future, helping him to earn a fortune.
“Maurice Singleton, what I said before is true.
I really am going to organize a fleet to set out to sea,” said an intoxicated Yusuf Zuck, who appeared out of nowhere in Maurice Singleton’s room, startling the smoking Maurice Singleton quite a bit.
After inviting Yusuf Zuck to take a seat, Maurice Singleton said, “Then let take charge of managing them.
We need to establish relevant systems.
Without systems, there are no standards.
I, too, wish to sail the oceans and feel the expansiveness in my chest!”
“I ca to you with exactly that in mind,” Yusuf Zuck said with a smile.
“I don’t understand procedures like purchasing ships or ship registration, and there aren’t many people I trust.
So, your responsibility will be to help go to sea and keep an eye on them for !” Yusuf Zuck gestured outside.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust these sailors, but one day, when they retrieved countless treasures, it was feared that so might develop greed and harbor ill intentions.
Captain Wu and these sailors were all brothers, so even if soone made a mistake, he could only turn a blind eye.
But with Maurice Singleton around, the likelihood of mistakes would be greatly reduced.
“Then I’ll need assistants; if these n rebel, I won’t be able to handle it alone.
Wealth emboldens and corrupts, so caution is paramount,” Maurice Singleton whispered.
Yusuf Zuck nodded and said with a smile, “Once we get back ho, I’ll give you a drop of a miraculous potion.
After you drink it, these ten or twenty n will hardly be your match.
Of course, managing so many isn’t easy, so I’ll assign soone else to work with you.”
“Alright, then there’s no problem.
Leave the purchase and registration of ships to ; I’ve handled such matters before.”
“Don’t underestimate the sea.
Beneath those blue waters lie mountains of gold and silver.
I have a notebook in my bag that records the coordinates of so treasures.
Take it later and keep it safe.
This notebook absolutely cannot be shown to anyone else.
When you go treasure hunting, do it with a plan, with purpose!”
“Boss, you’ve prepared in advance?” Maurice Singleton exclaid in surprise.
Yusuf Zuck gave him a look and said, “If I hadn’t prepared, why would I bother getting a ship?
Why would I bother recruiting sailors?
Just wait, the sea will stuff our pockets full of banknotes!”
“Hahaha.” Maurice Singleton laughed heartily, but as he laughed, he suddenly stopped and looked at Yusuf Zuck strangely.
“What’s up?” Yusuf Zuck asked, confused.
“Nothing, nothing, hehe, hehe.” Maurice Singleton chuckled awkwardly a couple of tis, then continued smoking.
In fact, he wanted to suggest that Yusuf Zuck choose either Macklin Greene or thelin Singleton and then he could beco Yusuf Zuck’s father-in-law.
But he dared not voice it out.
