Chapter 3038


    ine asked curiously, "Oh! That Calligraphy and Painting Association of yours will be paying you a sry now?" Jacob had an arrogant look on his face as he said, "It is not just paying me a sry, but it''s even a pretty substantial amount!"


    As he spoke, Jacob said again, "Look, I am the executive vice-president. So, from this month onward, my monthly base sry will be twelve thousand dors. It is the second-highest sry that is being paid in the entire Calligraphy and Painting Association after the president, Mr. Bay!" After that, Jacob then said, "This is only the base sry that will be given to us by Aurous Hill city. In fact, there are many private enterprises that want to take up the business of cultural development. So, they have donated a lot of funds and docked a lot of resources to the Calligraphy and Painting Association. The Calligraphy and Painting Association has recently undertaken quite a lot of calligraphy and painting activities. So, the days in the Calligraphy and Painting Association will be veryfortable in theing days."


    ine hurriedly asked, "Then, will you also be able to


    make money by coborating with private enterprises?"


    "Of course!" Jacob immediately said, "The private enterprises themselves also have their own sponsorship. Moreover, we will get some transportation and consultation fees for each event. I heard Mr. Bay making some calctions. If we hold two events a week, and if I were to attend all of them, it is estimated that I would be able to get three thousand to five thousand dors from each event."


    "D*mn!" ine said in surprise, "You can earn so much from one event?! In that case, if there are two events a week, that would be eight events in a month. If you can get three thousand dors from each event, that would already be more than twenty thousand dors! If you were to add on your base sry, wouldn''t you be making more than thirty thousand dors a month?!"


    "Yes." Jacob nodded as he smiled and said, "I used to wonder why so many people liked to volunteer to participate in various associations and societies that do not pay much. I initially thought that all of them simply wanted respect and reputation, but I finally understand now. It turns out that there are actually a lot of ways to get things done, and there is also a lot of room for profit."


    ine suddenly became very interested. She looked at Jacob, and she asked in a ttering tone, "Jacob, when my leg has already recovered, can you get me into your Calligraphy and Painting Association too? When the timees, you can just give me a casual job as well as a sry. I will also be able to tag along when there are any events or activities. After all, I''m just being idle at home." 1


    Speaking of this, ine touched her right leg and sighed as she said, "Sigh. I''ve been really miserable for the past half a year. I''ve done nothing at all aside from staying home to nurse my leg. I''m already bored to death."


    Jacob was shocked, and he hastily said, "Oh! Our Calligraphy and Painting Association has already long stopped epting new members. There are dozens of people who are lining up recently to enter the association, and they are all waiting to attend the interview and get a reply. You do not know much about calligraphy and painting. In my opinion, you should not put yourself through so much hardship. Isn''t it nice for you to just stay at home peacefully? When your leg recovers, it would be nice if you can just go out and walk around or go traveling." 5


    If this was in the past, Jacob would have already ridiculed and made fun of ine, saying something'' ine, a shrewd person like you is actually thinking o f entering the Calligraphy and Painting Association?! You''re probably out of your mind!''.


    However, Jacob knew very well that if he were to say such words at this time, if ine were to get angry, she would certainly insist on joining his association. So, he could only try persuading her nicely instead.


    Even though that was the case, ine was still a little dissatisfied, and she snorted coldly, "Why? Are you looking down on me? If you, Jacob Wilson can also be the executive vice-president of the Calligraphy and PaintingAll rights ? N?velDrama.Org.


    Association, am I not even qualified to be a member? Do you really think that I do not know how you got the position as the executive vice-president? Wasn''t it all because of my good son-inw''s reputation? Otherwise, based on your simple and introverted character, you would have already been excluded and pushed out a long time ago! It would not even be your turn to be the executive vice-president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association even after the dog that they are raising at the door bes the executive vice-president!" 4


    l


    Jacob''s face suddenly flushed red at this time as he thought to himself, ''What this shrew, ine, said is actually true. In truth, I was almost pushed out at the very beginning. Fortunately, Charlie was the one who supported me back in The Heaven Springs. After Mr. Bay saw that even Don Albert was treating me so respectfully, he was in such a rush to tter and please me, and that was the reason why he gave me the position as the executive vice-president. However, ine''s words are simply too harsh, right? What Calligraphy and Painting Association dog? Could a dog be the executive


    vice-president?!'' 2


    Just as he was thinking about it and when ine saw that he was not saying anything, she immediately spoke up, "Since you''re not willing to help me, ask my good son-inw to help me, then. Perhaps I would be able to enter the association and be an executive vice-president as well. When the timees, the both of us will be a husband and wife pair, and it will also be a good story when word about this gets out!" 1


    Jacob was so shocked that he began to get ufortable butterflies in his tummy. 2


    He knew that with Charlie''s ability, if Charlie were to indeed speak up, it would not be difficult for Charlie to help ine get the position as an executive vice-chairman.


    In that case, ine would certainly be haunting him every day, and he would be done for. Moreover, he would not have the opportunity to continue developing his rtionship with Matilda, then. 3


    As he thought of this, he hurriedly said, "Oh, Wife, I''m currently progressing in the rising stage of my career. If you were to use your connections to get into the association now to form a husband and wife pair with me, how would other people look at me, then?


    Wouldn''t I, Jacob Wilson, be used of favoritism and nepotism, then? If you truly support my career, you should take the initiative to avoid suspicion!"


    Speaking of this, Jacob saw that the expression on ine''s face had already be very ugly. He immediately waved his hand and ground his teeth as he said, "Why don''t we do this, then? You don''t need to go to the Calligraphy and Painting Association in the future. I''ll give you half of my sry, and you can spend the money as you please. How about that?"


    When ine heard Jacob talking about money, her eyes lit up immediately as she blurted out, "No! You have to give me all of your sry!" 4 Jacob clenched his teeth and stomped his feet before he spat out the word, "Okay!" 1
