Yan Aohan smiled faintly. "Since we are operating under the name of the Azure Sovereign Qingdi Group, we cannot do so for nothing. You must have shares. It won’t be too much, but you will receive twenty-five percent."
"That’s a lot," Zhu Shun’ao said, slightly stunned. "Originally, I thought ten percent for myself and ten percent for the Cheng family would be enough. I wanted my second brother-in-law to help with logistics, so I planned for him to get two percent of the logistics shares. Giving me twenty-five percent all at once seems too much. What about the others?"
Yan Aohan spoke directly. "This is under my control. Originally, I planned to give you twenty-five percent of my forty-five percent share, and the remaining thirty percent to the main veteran managers who joined. If the Cheng family wants to join, we can give them logistics shares, but not shares in the security company. Giving them shares there could cause problems. How about this? I will give ten percent of the logistics shares to the Cheng family from my portion, and five percent to the Xie family. What do you think?"
Zhu Shun’ao waved his hands. "No, no. I can’t let you suffer a loss." He continued, "I don’t understand this business well. You are just using my name, which is like giving me money for free. Although I am not smart, I know that if you want to use a name, you don’t have to use mine. Many other powerful companies would be eager for you to use their names. So, twenty-five percent is too much for me. Let’s stick to my plan for logistics: ten percent for me, ten percent for the Cheng family, and two percent for my second brother-in-law. For the security company, ten percent for me is enough. I can talk to the Cheng family; they probably won’t mind." This was standard Zhu Shun’ao thinking, with no thought of taking advantage of others.
Yan Aohan waved his hand slightly. "I promised you twenty-five percent. You will have twenty-five percent of the security company shares."
"That’s too much. Let’s reduce it. How about fifteen percent? That’s really enough." Zhu Shun’ao genuinely felt it was too much. It was just a name affiliation. Giving twenty-five percent of the shares was truly shocking.
Yan Aohan thought for a moment. "How about twenty percent? No less. My forty-five percent remains unchanged. You get twenty percent, and the remaining thirty-five percent goes to the veterans. What do you think?"
"Fine, let’s do that." Zhu Shun’ao knew he couldn’t refuse any further, so he nodded.
Yan Aohan added, "For the security company, the two of us are the major shareholders. Don’t look at the thirty-five percent for others. If they perform well, even if participants get just zero point one percent of dry shares, they can earn a lot of money."
Zhu Shun’ao tilted his head and thought. "I don’t calculate these details carefully. You decide."
Yan Aohan continued, "For the logistics company, you will also have twenty percent. The Cheng family can have ten percent, and the Xie family can have two percent. The thirty percent for the veterans remains unchanged. The five percent you gave up will come from your share, and the rest will be reduced from my forty-five percent. This way, my share will be thirty-eight percent, yours will be twenty percent, the Cheng family ten percent, the Xie family two percent, and the remaining thirty percent will be prepared for the veterans. What do you think?"
"Agreed. I have no objections." Zhu Shun’ao truly had no objections, as long as no one suffered a loss.
Yan Aohan nodded. "I will talk to the Cheng family. You don’t need to appear." After all, the Zhu family and the Cheng family had feelings for each other. It was better for him to handle this matter.
