"Since you all have no objections, that's how we'll proceed. Even though the company registration didn't go through this time, we can't let that delay us from making money.
Please draft a charter and outline the details of shareholding. Allocations will be strictly based on investment amounts.
Guo Xuyang paused and continued, "Call Xiao Yun and ask if she still wants to invest."
"Alright. After I get back, I'll sort out the investment details and send them out to everyone. Those who are investing will know their respective shares.
Also, I suggest you take a 20% stake in phantom equity. After all, everyone relies on you to make money."
"Don't bring this up again. This company of ours will not have phantom equity in the future.
From now on, anyone who wants to invest must pay. Share distribution will be strictly based on investment capital."
Wu Youzhi saw that Guo Xuyang was set on this and let it go.
"Won't this company push aside our Kyoto and Shanghai specialty stores?"
"You're thinking about this the wrong way. We are establishing this company solely for procurement in Myanmar.
Once the rough stones are procured and cut, the jadeite will fully enter our specialty stores for sale.
The dividends are based on the profits from selling the jadeite extracted from the rough stones.
Our specialty stores will receive the jadeite and then process it into finished products before selling them.
This means our specialty stores will buy jadeite directly from the jadeite company in the future.
The specialty stores will be profitable, and the jadeite company will also be profitable. As for us, we are ultimately the beneficiaries."
Wu Youzhi's doubts were cleared after Guo Xuyang's explanation.
"Then why are we putting up with their attitude here? Don't we have the King's Villa ready to use?
We can just bring all the procured rough stones back to the provincial capital, cut them there, and then send them to Kyoto and Shanghai."
"That's right. Why didn't I think of that?
Since they don't want us to establish ourselves in Kyoto, we can do it in the provincial capital.
Please quickly pull up the shareholder list. I'll take a look before you send it out.
Then we can gather everyone to discuss this matter. The provincial capital is even safer than here."
The two men became more energized as they spoke, brimming with enthusiasm and wishing they could fly to the Myanmar stores immediately.
Wu Youzhi drove them back to the hotel and then returned to Panjiayuan.
He needed to compile the list of shareholders and draft a charter.
The ten-plus pieces of jadeite that Zhenbaoge cut last time, especially the exquisite grape ornament, had caused a huge sensation.
People flocked to the store to buy jadeite, and many also came to view the ornament.
Business boomed, and they had to urgently transfer stock from the provincial capital to Kyoto.
Pi Xiaoqian watched with envy.
Before Wu Youzhi even got out of the car, Pi Xiaoqian approached him.
"Mr. Wu, can you sell me that seven-colored jadeite you cut last time? I'll pay a high price, what do you say?"
"No. Right now, all the jadeite I have is transferred from the provincial capital, and we're in urgent need.
How about this? You have a lot of goods, right? Transfer them over first, and we'll prioritize my outflow?"
Pi Xiaoqian thought that this was a viable solution. As long as goods could be moved, it didn't matter who sold them.
"Alright. I'll arrange for someone to transfer fifty pieces to you first. You can start with those, and if it's not enough, I'll transfer more here."
"Then please arrange it now. Remember to record it properly. I'll settle this payment separately.
Also, please make arrangements in the next couple of days, as we'll be going to the Myanmar stores soon.
I can't host you now. Director Guo has asked me to quickly pull out the shareholder investment details and the charter for the jadeite company.
After this is done, Director Guo will convene everyone for a meeting to discuss this thoroughly.
This is to avoid any misunderstandings or troubles later on.
After all, it involves money, and not a single cent can be amiss."
"Alright. Then you go ahead and be busy. I'll go arrange for someone to transfer the goods."
Pi Xiaoqian said, waddling away with his plump body.
When Guo Xuyang and Iliana returned to the hotel, they found that Lü Liang was not there.
"Brother Liang, where are you?" He called Lü Liang's phone.
"I'm at Director Jiang's place. I saw your door was closed when I came out, so I didn't call you."
"Iliana and I went with Mr. Wu this morning to handle the registration of the jadeite company. Since it didn't go through, we came back. Wait for us there, and we'll come over."
"Okay. We were just talking about this. You guys come over."
After hanging up, Guo Xuyang put on his clothes again and called Iliana to go to Jiang Qixin's place.
"Darling, I'm feeling a bit unwell. You go by yourself."
"What's wrong? Did you catch a cold?"
"I don't know. I feel a bit drowsy, and I feel like vomiting but can't."
"Then I'll take you to the hospital."
"No need. I think I'll be fine after a nap. You go ahead, don't keep Director Jiang waiting too long."
"Alright. You sleep for a while, and I'll be back. If you're still not feeling well, we'll go to the hospital then?"
"Okay. You go ahead."
Iliana stood up, tidied Guo Xuyang's collar, escorted him to the door, and watched him walk away.
"Gag, gag..." She turned and ran into the bathroom, trying to vomit continuously.
Yet, she couldn't throw up, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
She looked up at her slightly pale face in the mirror and noticed that she seemed to have become much younger.
Her face had clearly gained some weight, with a bit of baby fat, but it looked much better than before.
Could it be because of being intimate with Guo Xuyang?
Intimate? Impossible.
She subconsciously lifted her sweater and looked at her small belly.
It was still as smooth as ever, with no change.
She then took off her entire sweater and looked at her ample bosom. The hint of pink seemed unchanged.
If there was any change, it was that the color seemed to have become redder.
She reached out to cup them; they were neither swollen nor painful.
She shook her head, thinking it was impossible.
It had been five to six years since she got married. Regardless of whether it was with her husband, William, or Guo Xuyang, she had never used any contraception.
She was healthy and had no medical issues, just that she was not fated to become a mother.
Later, she found her husband becoming increasingly indifferent to her, so she went to South Africa under the guise of helping her husband manage his business.
She never expected to meet William there.
William had disappeared after she got married.
Their old flame rekindled. In a foreign land where no one knew her, they lived together as husband and wife.
Later, Lü Liang asked her to help entertain Guo Xuyang and Xiao Yun.
A handsome young man, possessing a masculinity that William lacked, deeply captivated her.
However, Xiao Yun was extremely jealous and never gave her a chance.
Later, under the influence of alcohol one night, she entered Guo Xuyang's room, and something wonderful happened.
From then on, there was no turning back. She felt her heart had been taken away by Guo Xuyang.
Unfortunately, Xiao Yun watched her too closely, and she never had the chance to be alone with him again until Guo Xuyang left.
She didn't expect Guo Xuyang to return later.
This time, only he and Lü Liang returned. She felt as if she saw that ray of light again.
