Ephraim, who had been smiling just now, suddenly turned dark when David said he quit.
He glanced sideways at the paper David gave him and said expressionlessly: "What is the illusion that makes you think I have 4 million spare cash that I can give to you at any time? And why do you think you can get 4 million?"
"I've already done the math. Now more than 60% of the goods have been delivered. I want to share 40% of the money, which is not much." David said with the same cold face.
This transaction originally earned 20 million yuan. Excluding expenses, one person can share at least 9 million yuan.
David only wanted 4 million, which was indeed not excessive.
Long Zhan stood by the door and watched quietly, watching the two good brothers fall out and start to separate, and see where this scene would end.
Long Zhan personally doesn't see any problem with David's decision to leave with 4 million yuan if he quits.
Ephraim's approach was too arbitrary and he didn't take his partner seriously at all. He agreed not to get involved in Henry's affairs, but Ephraim was indeed doing it alone.
David was worried that Ephraim would become more and more crazy and that he would eventually be dragged into the water and unable to get out.
Take the money and leave in advance to protect yourself wisely.
This is indeed the smartest thing to do.
However, Ephraim was already greedy for profit at this time, and his reason was completely swallowed up by the desire for money, and he completely ignored brotherhood.
Faced with the requirement that David only needs 4 million to leave, leaving 16 million for Ephraim to earn.
Ephraim, on the other hand, was as stingy as Grandet, snorting tit-for-tat: "I've thought about it too, and it's been settled long ago. You don't even think about sharing a penny. What do you think?"
"Heh, interesting."
Long Zhan laughed secretly, and Ephram's favorability dropped sharply.
"I remind you, we have a contract." David reminded.
"Fuck your contract."
Ephraim became furious, pointed at Dabu's nose and cursed: "If I ask you to help me build a house, and the house is only half-finished, but you tell me that you want to quit, do you think I will?" Pay your half?"
Ephraim's metaphor may sound reasonable, but it's actually bullshit.
No matter which country or law it is, if you work even for just one day, you must be paid.
Not to mention that it was already halfway done. It was Ephraim who broke the contract in advance, not David. David only wanted his share of salary and it was good enough that Ephram was not allowed to hide the liquidated damages.
David knew that Ephraim was possessed and had already begun to think of taking all the money for himself. Even if there was no such thing as Henry Girard, he would be kicked out sooner or later.
When you make little money, you are close friends, but when you make a lot of money, you become your enemy.
This situation abounds in reality!
That's why there is such a saying, never open a company with your best brother. If you really think your brother is capable and can help you, you can hire him as an employee.
Just like between Long Zhan and Tucker.
Long Zhan acts as the big boss behind the scenes and invites Tucker as an employee by adding salary to shares to help him manage Titan Company to avoid this problem.
Because when two people are both bosses, each other will think about the other person sharing their money.
When only one person is the boss, all the money earned belongs to one boss, and the employees will be employees, and their perspective is also that of employees. They will not think about uneven distribution of money, which will eventually lead to conflicts between brothers.
"I'll give you two weeks to prepare the money, otherwise it won't be me who calls you, but my lawyer."
After David finished speaking, he walked outside, too lazy to talk nonsense with the possessed Ephraim.
"Lawyer? Warren? Are you talking about Warren? He is also my lawyer, or I introduced him to you. Do you think you can scare me? If you don't want to do it, get out and don't even think about a penny. Take it away.”
Amid Ephraim's humiliating curses, David went out and walked to his own office.
Ephraim and David were partners in business, so they both acted as bosses and their offices were in the same room.
It's just that it's separated by glass, and you can enter the two rooms through two doors.
Ephram just watched David walk in, open the desk and want to get the contract he signed, with a proud smile on his lips.
When David opened the cabinet, he was stunned.
The contract he put inside was gone, just disappeared out of thin air.
David quickly opened other drawers and searched every drawer, but still did not find the signed contract.
"Fuck~"
David kicked the table hard, and when he saw Ephraim smiling proudly on the other side of the glass, he understood everything instantly.
It must have been Ephraim who secretly took away the signed contract while he was away.
But Ephraim got the advantage and behaved well. When he saw David blushing in a hurry, he deliberately smiled at him proudly.
David, who was already extremely angry, was stimulated by Ephraim, and his emotions immediately exploded.
He grabbed the armchair with both hands and threw it at Ephraim.
"Bang, bang~"
The chair hit the glass, and the entire glass wall made of tempered glass was destroyed by internal stress and instantly shattered into a pile of small fragments.
Ephraim was startled. He didn't expect David to be so violent, and he was really a little scared.
No more provocation!
The AEY employees in the office area outside were also frightened by the huge movement. They looked at it in confusion, wondering what happened to the two bosses.
David glared at Ephraim fiercely, pushed open the door and walked out.
Ephraim did not go after David. He seemed to be determined to eat alone. The wealth of 20 million made him red-eyed.
Don't look at it as nonsense.
In fact, in reality, one million, or even hundreds of thousands, let alone brothers recognized by the outside world, even real brothers can turn against each other in the end.
Not to mention it’s 20 million US dollars!
Anyone with 20 million US dollars can live a comfortable life in the United States without worrying about food and clothing.
You must know that Lamborghini and Ferrari luxury cars only cost one to two hundred thousand dollars in the United States.
Long Zhan saw that just over a week ago, Ephraim and David, who were still hooking up with each other, would now turn against each other by throwing tables and chairs.
It's really a bit sad.
At the same time, I also lamented that money is truly magical and can change anything that seems firm.
When Ephram saw that only Long Zhan was left, his smiling face instantly returned, and he said hypocritically: "I'm sorry for making you laugh.
Next week the first payment from the Ministry of National Defense will be credited to the company's account. I will have reached the standard by then. Don't forget our cooperation. "
Ephraim now earns 20 million, and he has not forgotten the 100 million from Long Zhan.
"Let's talk about it then."
Long Zhan basically knew what was going on, so he left with an ambiguous answer.
