Chapter 546: Free Shares, Dividends, and Secret Agreement

Chapter 546 Free Shares, Dividends, and Secret Agreement

What amazed Selina was how she and Luke had unexpectedly made a fortune again.

Luke pulled her down onto the couch and explained the outcome of the investigation on the gold mine in detail.

It was much more convincing than simple words like “We struck gold!”, “We’re rich!”, or “You’re a millionaire!”

Selina was stunned for quite a long while, before she murmured, “Am I rich now?”

Luke chuckled. “That’s right. Do you want to retire?”

Selina suddenly woke up and shook her head quickly. “Why would I? With Gold Nugget’s help… Well, in any case, I’m going to keep working.”

Looking at her, Luke stretched out his hand. “Then, we’ll still be partners?” Selina snorted and slapped his hand. “Do you want another partner?” Luke smiled. “To be honest, I never considered that.”

Selina snorted again, but was more relaxed. “Fine, you pass. Okay, I’m going to bed. My training today was really exhausting.”

Luke was dazed. “Didn’t I say that you can take a break?”

Selina waved her hand and got up. “The feeling of getting stronger bit by bit as you exercise – you’ll never know what that feels like.”

That left Luke speechless.

Well… It seemed he really had never experienced that.

After Selina went to her bedroom, Luke looked curiously at Dollar who was lying down in front of him. “Not going to bed? Didn’t Selina give you any snacks just now?”.

Dollar began to whine.

This time, Luke could guess what it was saying. He frowned and pondered for a long while, and faintly understood what Dollar’s aggrieved expression meant. He ventured, “Are you saying that since Selina has a share, you want a share as well?”

Of course, it was Gold Nugget expressing its opinion through Dollar. It instantly barked at Luke’s words.

It was a happy bark. Clearly, Luke was right.

Luke had a strange expression on his face. “Selina invested 200,000 dollars in the company when it was founded a few months ago, and she got 5% of the shares. What… did you invest?”

Gold Nugget instantly wilted.

Through its symbiotic relationship with Selina, it learned a lot of general knowledge, including basic concepts like money and shares.

It was at this moment that this alien dog realized that it was completely broke.

Looking at that expression, which was full of despair, Luke considered for a moment, then suggested, “Why don’t you ask Selina for a free share?”

Gold Nugget suddenly raised its head and stared at Luke with its shiny little eyes, waiting for an explanation.

Luke gave him a basic rundown on free shares, but Dollar shook its head in bewilderment.

Luke used even simpler and more practical terms to explain it. “If Selina is willing to offer you a free share of 1% in the company, you’ll get an annual dividend that could be anything from tens of thousands to several thousand dollars.”

Gold Nugget’s eyes sparkled as it nodded wildly.

Luke continued dropping bombshells: “If my company continues to expand, the profits might double, and so will your dividends.”

When he said that, Gold Nugget nodded so hard it almost dislocated a joint.

Luke smiled and patted the dog’s head. “Then go and negotiate with Selina. You know that here, we value the spirit of a contract. When money is involved, it’s best to have an agreement in place to avoid any unpleasantness, right?” Gold Nugget nodded quickly and dashed into Selina’s room.

A moment later, Selina said unhappily, “What? You want a share? You invested? What did you invest? Hm, your skills? About that… Fine, how many shares do you want…?”

Luke was amused.

In fact, it wouldn’t matter even if Selina gave all her dividends to Gold Nugget.

Luke was the one who had the final say on how much, when, and how the dividends would be distributed.

He wouldn’t give Gold Nugget a hard time, but it wasn’t like the dog could go out with cash in its mouth to buy stuff on its own.

Shaking his head with a smile, Luke got up and went to the basement to start with his regular overtime.

The next day, both Selina and Gold Nugget looked lively.

It seemed that their negotiation last night had gone well. After breakfast, Luke and Selina swung by the police department to pick up a few cases from Elsa before they promptly returned home.

Luke began to deal with the issue of manufacturing the smart phones.

It actually wasn’t a huge problem. Given the current technology, most of the suitable components for a smart phone already existed.

He only needed to address some pivotal problems and control the key technology.

Selina continued to work out and study the case files.

Dollar spent most of its time eating and drinking. It didn’t need to exercise, as Gold Nugget took care of everything. The only thing that upset the dog was that its other self would often control its own body, which was the one black spot in its otherwise perfect doggy life.

When night fell, Luke got a call on his burner phone.

Luke picked up the call and said a few words before he waved at Selina. “Change your clothes. Mr. Best Hitman said that he found the two guys. He wants us to inspect the goods and pay him.”

“Inspect the goods?” Selina asked weirdly as she walked back to her room.

Luke thought for a moment. “His job isn’t complete until we meet the two guys. Otherwise, I won’t give him the rest of the money.”

Selina realized it made sense. They both put on their hip-hop disguises and drove off.

Based on the address that “Best Hitman” Wade gave them, they found an abandoned factory in the eastern district.

Opening the rundown metal gate that only had a chain on it, they entered the factory not far away.

It had all the trappings of an abandoned factory, except for one area lit by a camping light.

Luke and Selina saw Wade, who was sitting leisurely on a worn couch and taking a slice of pizza out of the pizza box next to him.

Seeing the newcomers, he simply pointed at two men on another couch not far away. “Have a look yourself.”

Luke sized up the two unconscious men on the couch and nodded a moment later. “They’re the guys I want.”

Wade chewed his pizza and asked, “Can you pay me the rest of the money now?”

Luke nodded with a smile and took out five hundred dollars from his pocket, which he tossed in the direction of the couch.

Wade quickly sat upright, snatched the money, and counted it in delight.

Luke asked, “Are we done?”

Wade nodded without looking at him. “Yep.”

Luke finally took out handcuffs and walked over to the two men on the couch who had been tied up with rope. Wade instantly cried out, “Hey! Hey! Hey! What are you doing?”

Luke glanced at him. “Now that we’re done, I can do anything I want with them, can’t I?”

Wade’s eyes widened unhappily. “I was the one who caught them. What makes you think you can take them away?”

Smiling, Luke unhurriedly fished out a chain from his pocket and turned the ID that was hanging from it to show off his striking, gleaming police badge. “LAPD. Do you have anything to say about me taking away two suspected bank robbers, Mr. Best Hitman?
