Exercise 205

For the sake of safe travel, Zhu Wencong went straight to Malik's seaside villa, where he had been indulging in eating, drinking, and merriment.

Business and military affairs were all delegated to his aides, a lesson Malik had learned from Zhu Wencong.

By promising some sweet rewards, his subordinates would sell their lives to him, and Malik had a liking for those who were highly motivated and strived to succeed.

"Why didn't your wife come along? I've recently acquired a batch of fine jewelry that absolutely suits the aesthetic of Easterners!

Could you please pass these on to Su... and also to that lady, as gifts I've prepared for them!" said Malik with a beaming smile.

Zhu Wencong found that Malik was even better at making extravagant promises than he was, with his brutal simplicity of rewarding with beauties and gold.

No wonder Malik's subordinates worked themselves to the bone for him—the rewards were indeed something to go crazy over.
