new York.
Evening~Manhattan, Wildfire Bar.
Sinney, the former Bronx gang leader, and Carew, the current gang leader, sat in the corner and raised their glasses.
"You were at Bonini's again this afternoon. What meeting were you having?"
"Um.."
"There are.."
"No! Karu, stop talking~"
"They have nothing to do with me!"
Kalu looked at Xinni in surprise and said with a smile: "Do you mean what you say?"
"Hahaha~ Of course!"
"Now that I have retired, there is no need to worry about these nonsense anymore~"
Karu took a sip of his drink, smiled casually, looked at Madonna, the busy waiter, and said.
"How's that record company of yours doing?"
"Oh~ it."
"I didn't pay much attention to it. They were all looking for new people."
"However, I heard that he found a black girl with great potential in New Jersey."
"In two days, when he's finished, I'll go take a look!"
Karu nodded, glanced from the direction of the bar, and said in a low voice.
"If you don't have anything important to do, you'd better leave New York for a while~"
"It's best to come back after the New Year!"
Xinni frowned and pondered for a few seconds, then turned to look at the bar and asked in a low voice: "My family really wants to go to Australia for vacation. It's summer there and it's much warmer than New York. We still have Never been there.”
"What do you think?"
"Good!"
"Ok!"
Xinni drank the wine in the glass and raised his hand to wave to Madonna.
"We're leaving tomorrow, Merry Christmas in advance, man!"
"Thank you ~ You too!"
"Hahaha~"
"Madonna, this table is mine! The rest of the money is your tip~"
"Oh~ thank you!"
Madonna happily tucked a Franklin into her chest and raised her eyebrows at Carew.
"Do you want anything else?"
"No~"
"Okay ~ Goodbye, Xinni!"
"Bye, baby!"
"Hahaha~"
"I'm leaving, man!"
Sinney is gone.
Karu worked alone for a while, drank his drink, took out a piece of change and put it under the cup, and walked out of the bar silently.
street.
Kalu looked up at the narrow sky and thought to himself: There is a beginning, and there will eventually be an end~
. . .
in the bar.
Madonna put away the cup Carew had just used and was stunned for a moment when she picked up the change under it.
Next to the bar.
Samuel L. Jackson and Denzel Washington, who often come here to drink these days, are teasing Erica one after another.
"Hey~ Is that black guy new here?"
"Tch~ Aren't you guys black boys too?"
"Hahaha~ He can't be... old Red's long-lost child, right?"
Erica glanced at Old Rhett, who was sitting at the bar with his head lowered and playing with the camera, shook his head and smiled.
"Have you two become bolder?"
"Stop drinking! Get out of here!"
"Wow wow wow ~ ok, ok!"
Samuel L. Jackson raised his hands and smiled: "I apologize!"
"This kid is too evil-minded. I suggest you don't let him come in again~"
Denzel Washington rolled his eyes: "You pay for today's drinks!"
"Forehead.."
"Hahaha~"
. . .
the other side of the bar.
Old Rhett raised his head and glanced in Erica's direction, then smiled and said to Mike Tyson beside him.
"Do you understand everything?"
"Yeah, I understand!"
"Take it and return it to me tomorrow!"
"Definitely!" Mike Tyson borrowed the camera with bright eyes, quickly fiddled with it a few times, installed it, and ran out of the bar happily.
Old Rhett stood behind the bar, looked at his back, and smiled.
----
The Queen.
Ludy walked out of the car, flicked the cigarette butt away, and strode into the old Malkin's house.
in the living room.
All the core members of the Sidrich family were holding wine glasses or cigarettes in their hands, talking and laughing, as if they were treating this place as a bar.
Old Malkin in the crowd saw Ludy coming back, so he stood up and signaled with a smile.
"Guys, be quiet!"
"Quiet~"
"Come one by one, don't shout!"
"If you have any questions about what I just said, Ludi can give you a better explanation!"
"Hahaha~"
"Come here quickly, Ludy!"
"Yes, I happen to have..."
. . .
in the kitchen.
Old Malkin's wife Sena said to her eldest daughter Manqi while tidying up the kitchen.
"Go to your father's study and get me all the wine he hid!"
"Oh..." Manqi glanced at her father who was smiling and happily went upstairs.
----
a new day.
London.
Early morning~
Four Seasons Hotel Park Lane.
"Ling Ling~Ling Ling~"
David, who was sleeping in, was awakened by a rapid ringing of the phone.
He rubbed his eyes, pulled his arm out from under Polly, and reached for the phone.
"Hello~"
"David!"
"It's me~"
"Did you hear that? I'm Ludy!"
"Oh~"
"Sorry ~ I'm still a little confused, wait until I get off!" David rubbed his eyes and forehead, preparing to get out of bed and go to the living room to answer the phone.
Polly also woke up at this moment, stretched out her hand to hold him and said with a smile: "I heard it~ Let me listen!"
David blinked and lowered the phone. Polly half leaned on the bedside and smiled into the phone.
"Hi~"
"Hahaha~ you guys..."
"Yes, we are together!"
"Wow~ Hahaha~ I knew it!"
"You know shit!"
"Tell me, calling so early... It's still late at night for you, right?"
"Yes~"
"Wait a minute, your dad needs to answer the phone!"
Emm. .
David's eyes widened when he looked at Polly~
Polly smiled calmly and said into the phone: "Dad, you heard it all!"
"..Um!"
"You...don't you want to say something?"
"..."
David suddenly felt "blessed", winked at Polly, and shouted into the microphone.
"Dad~!"
"We will apologize to you when we get back!"
"...Hahahaha~" A burst of laughter suddenly broke out from the other side of the microphone.
Lu Di's voice came through the laughter: "You damn brat, why didn't I realize you were so shameless?"
"Hahaha~"
"Okay~ shut up!"
"Ahem~hahaha~"
"Sorry, sorry! I just can't help it... Hahaha~"
. . .
Polly had already thrown the microphone aside and kissed David so hard that for a moment he felt like he was going to be suffocated. .
2 minute later.
The voice from the other side of the phone interrupted the two people's passionate kiss.
"Hey! David! fxxx!"
"Answer the phone!"
"Yeah...Dad!"
"Polly? Give the phone to David!"
"No~ Just tell me if you have anything to do!"
"Tsk...I want to get down to business!"
David hugged Polly tightly, took the microphone from her hand, and said with a smile: "You tell me, I'm listening!"
"..."
"Um...are you still there?"
"What the hell...cough~!"
"Rosenlow arrived in London from Milan and should have arrived downstairs in your hotel~"
"He'll talk to you!"
"Ok!"
"Um.."
"Beep~beep~beep~"
David listened to the blind voice on the phone, turned to Polly and asked with a smile: "Will I be beaten to death when I go back?"
Polly shook her head happily and said, "Don't worry, we still have our mother here!"
"Ah~ yes!"
"I'm going to call mom right now!"
"Hey~ It's still late at night in New York!"
"Haha~ Let's do some morning exercise first!"
"..no!"
. . .
After half an hour.
Rosenlo Sidric, who came from Milan, Italy, nodded to Polly who was looking after him, walked over to David, who was on the phone, and sat down.
David waved to him, made two gestures, and said into the microphone: "How about we meet at lunch?"
"it is good!"
"See you soon, Jellal!"
"ok~"
David put down the phone and smiled.
"Welcome to London, Rosenthal~"
"..Thanks!"
"You came all the way here, what's the matter?"
Rosenlow nodded and looked at David: "Old Mr. Malkin contacted me. There are a few things that I can't discuss with you in detail on the phone."
"So, here I am!"
"..ok~"
David picked up an envelope from the sofa next to him and handed it over: "You should take a look at it first~"
Rosenlow glanced at Polly who came to sit next to David, picked up the envelope, opened the letter and read it again, pursed her lips and nodded.
"That's it!"
David took a deep breath, frowned and asked, "I can guess a little bit about your purpose of coming to London."
"But why are you in such a hurry?"
"Can't you wait until I get back?"
Rosenlow reinstalled the letter paper, put it on the table and shook his head: "Old Malkin said that I never wanted to hide this from you."
"The reason why I'm speaking out now is because this money can give you more opportunities in London!"
"Oh...how many are there in total?"
"If they can all be received today, the total amount will be nearly 12 billion yuan."
"Hi~"
"These...are your family's entire wealth, right?"
"Sorry! I don't know either~"
"That's it~"
David's eyes fell on the envelope and he thought quickly~
In the envelope was a gift that Odis Parker had asked Polly to bring over.
It records the amount of black money laundered by the Sidrich family in recent months, as well as the estimated amount of unlaundered funds.
Now, with Rosenlot's figure of nearly 12 billion yuan, David finally knows the weight of Old Morgan's gift.
His gift is simple to say the least.
Morgan is one of the most professional financial players in the world!
He saves all the time of laundering these black money~
No matter how much black money the Sidrich family has, he can deduct the handling fee in proportion, saving a lot of time and depositing the clean money directly into the designated account.
Therefore, out of the nearly 12 billion yuan, if you factor out the time cost of laundering through conventional channels, it will only be worth about one billion yuan in the end.
Of course~
This money may just be the working capital that the Sidrich family has been unable to launder.
If other real estate, financial products, etc. are included, the invisible wealth accumulated by the Sidrich family, which has been entrenched in New York for decades, may be even greater~
. . .
Polly, who was sitting next to David, glanced at Rosenlow, took the envelope back from the table, looked at it, and smiled.
"Did you come here just to talk about this?"
"No!"
"And~"
"When Ludy went to meet with Otis Parker, he said that if we wanted to use the real estate in our hands to mortgage, we would increase our chips..."
"They can also help~"
"No!"
"That's enough!"
David frowned and waved his hands vigorously: "This investment is itself a gamble with a high chance of winning~"
"Even if we have more chips, we can't influence the direction of the market. We can only follow the hot momentum of the market and earn some high-risk returns."
"Man, please make this trip~"
"I understand what old Malkin and your family mean!"
"Thank you!"
"Um.."
Rosenlow was as boring as ever. He simply responded and was about to stand up and leave.
Polly stood up with a smile: "Why are you still the wooden person you were when you were a child?"
"Uh... I'm used to it~"
Polly rolled her eyes at him, opened her arms and said with a smile: "Come on, let me hug the poor little one who has a runny nose all day long."
"..." Rosenluo looked embarrassed, with a stiff smile on his face.
"Hahaha~" David laughed and stood up, hugged Rosenlow from the side, and joked.
"Why are you like me?"
"Come on, tell me, does your snot taste good?"
"My nose is salty..."
"Hahaha~"
Polly gave David a hard blow, patted Rosenlow's head with her hand, and laughed and said, "You can't call him David anymore, you know?"
"Call me brother-in-law!"
Rosenluo's eyes widened a bit, he looked at David, and muttered: "Brother-in-law?!"
"Hey~"
"Hahaha~"
. . .
"Wooden Man" Rosenlow is gone.
Before leaving, he left a message: "I will wait in London. After making sure that all the money has arrived, you can call home at any time and use the money."
. . .
Rosenlow was sent away.
David sat down silently with his arms around Polly, and suddenly felt a huge pressure on his shoulders~
Polly seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and explained with a smile: "Although my father didn't tell me about this, you should be able to understand what he meant~"
"You don't have to worry about risks..."
"These matters should have been discussed by the family before Rosenluo appeared in front of you~"
"According to your earliest plan, make bold investments~"
"Ok!"
David kissed her forehead and took a deep breath.
"You go change clothes~ Jellal and Isadore Sharp have made an appointment with us for lunch."
"it is good!"
----
United States, District of Columbia.
Mag Ludwig turned up the collar of his coat with red eyes and got into the car.
After half an hour.
A few rays of dawn pierced the darkness shrouding the earth ~
Mag Ludwig walked out of the Capitol Hill Hotel with a briefcase in his hand.
. . .
More than an hour later.
Mag Ludwig, who changed into a high-end custom-made suit and was neatly dressed, followed a few old friends and walked into one of the country's political center buildings, the president's daily living and office, the White House. !
All the belongings carried by the few people were inspected by the guards.
Mag Ludwig carried the briefcase in his hand, walked behind the crowd, and entered a lounge.
Several people waited for more than 20 minutes.
The door to the room was opened, and President Warren White walked in with a smile on his face~
"welcome!"
"Hahaha~ Sorry! I hope I didn't keep you waiting too long!"
"It's an honor to meet you, Mr. President!"
"Well... hello~ We met last time, right?"
President White shook hands with several people and exchanged greetings with several people. When it was Mag Ludwig's turn, he paused obviously and asked.
"Mag?"
"It's me, Mr. President!"
"Hehe~"
President White seemed to see something in Mag's eyes. He nodded and smiled at him naturally, then turned to talk to a few people about business.
"Today we..."
. . .
After half an hour.
President White concluded the meeting.
As he walked out, his eyes glanced at Mag Ludwig.
Mag took a very low-key step and followed out.
. . .
At a corner with few people, President White stopped and looked back.
Ma Ge glanced at the few people who were following the president and dispersed automatically, took two steps forward and smiled.
"1 minutes!"
"Ok!"
"Let's go to the front~"
. . .
After a few minutes.
President White looked at Mag Ludwig's retreating back with confusion on his face, muttering softly.
“Paddy Hearst??”
Emm. .
The figure of Patty's father soon appeared in front of his eyes, and his brows gradually tightened.
It seems that this matter must come to an end as soon as possible~
----
London.
Four Seasons Hotel Park Lane.
in the restaurant.
David, Polly, Livlin, Elena and others, along with Gerald and Isadore Sharp, sat at the dining table and had lunch together.
Gerald took the lead in raising his glass and smiled at Polly: "Welcome to London, Polly!"
"Thank you~"
"Ding~" Everyone's wine glasses clinked lightly.
David took a sip of the white wine in his glass and smiled.
"Mr. Sharp..."
"Just call me Isadore~ I hope you are satisfied with the service in our hotel!"
"Okay~ Isadore, we feel great here!"
"Thank you!"
"It's just... I didn't expect you to be in London too..."
Isadore Sharp glanced at Gerald beside him, nodded and said: "Yes~ I come to London every year before Thanksgiving."
"It happened that Jellal contacted me, and that's why we had today's meeting!"
"Oh~"
David looked at Jellal with a smile and asked, "Have you talked about it?"
"Well~ We just had a preliminary chat, you still need to discuss the specific cooperation!"
"Haha~" David held the wine glass between his fingers and shook it gently on the table.
"Okay~ let's talk first?"
"Of course!" Jellal spread his hands and smiled.
"Hmm~ Isadore, I want to know what you think of the Four Seasons Hotel..."
. . .
On the table.
Polly, Elena and others all remained silent, enjoying the delicious lunch and quietly listening to the conversation between David and Isadore.
Jellal seemed to sense that the atmosphere at the dinner table today was a little strange.
However, he quickly figured it out and explained.
"David, please don't get me wrong!"
"I only contacted Isadore this morning..."
"Jeral, I understand~"
"Hehe~"
David narrowed his eyes and looked at Isadore with a smile: "So?"
"Are you going to introduce this new hotel management model?"
"Yes!"
Isadore very keenly heard something from what the two of them just said, and smiled.
"Jeral just asked me about the operating conditions of our hotel in recent years~"
"For specific cooperation matters, he said he needs to meet and discuss with you~"
"so.."
"Ok!"
David curled his lips at Jellal and joked: "I thought that after you ran away from Hyde Park, we would never meet again!"
Jellal smiled bitterly, knowing that David had misunderstood his "stupid" behavior.
"After I went back, I first went to find someone to get Isadore's contact information. After making a lot of phone calls, I found out that he was actually in London."
David shook his head, waved to him and said, "Man, maybe I didn't sleep well last night...my mind is a little messed up~"
"Feel sorry!"
"Um..." Jellal glanced at Polly, who was blushing, and smiled in understanding.
David held Polly's little hand and continued: "Four Seasons Hotel Company is only responsible for maintaining the brand and daily operations of the hotel. It will not purchase a building with heavy assets."
“Isadore’s new hotel operation model will definitely change the existing rules of the hotel industry!”
"So, if Isadore can be found this time and we can reach cooperation, it will be beneficial to both of us..."
. . .
On the table.
David gradually returned to the state that Jellal had remembered.
But Polly, who had been sitting next to David, knew very well~
David, something is wrong right now!
he. .Is it because of stress?
still. .Are you angry about Jellal's behavior?
Polly gently brushed David's palm with her fingers and felt some thin drops of sweat~
David also looked at her and shook his head slightly, indicating that it was okay~
. . .
Twenty minutes later.
This very short, very weird lunch is over.
Jellal watched David and the others leave thoughtfully, frowning.
Isadore Sharp, with a smile on his face, felt that he had finally found a professional who “knows what he does”~
