I just want to make money

Chapter 128 The leader will make up stories

For the two gangsters, it is impossible to spend as much as they earn and save money. It is not easy for them to buy two air tickets to go abroad.

After the two guys arrived in Kinshasa, their bodies were empty, and they didn't even dare to leave the airport, just waiting for Lin Yi's call inside.

At noon, the two pooled their money to buy a pizza.

"Okay, I'm going to the airport now, and I'll buy you two tickets to come over, and I'll call you when I'm done."

Tickets can be bought on behalf of the passengers, and the information is from the passengers.

Lin Yi talked to Marty, he left the hotel, and asked the taxi driver where there is an air ticket agency, the driver took Lin Yi to a big shopping mall, there is an air ticket agency here, Lin Yi gave Tommy and the others Bought two tickets and called to tell Tommy.

"When you get here, I will pick you up at the airport." Lin Yi said.

"Great, I really hope to see you soon." The main reason is that these two guys really have no money, and they will starve to death in Africa if they don't find Lin Yi.

Lin Yi originally wanted to go back to the hotel, but he looked up and saw the big shopping mall next to it, with the sign of the Gold Exchange next to it.

He suddenly became interested.

Going to do some market research.

South Africa is the world's largest gold producer and the largest gold exporter. The gold trade is very prosperous. When Lin Yi walked into the market, he found that the gold jewelry here is not placed in the cabinet at all, but hung on the wall or on the wall like a free market. It's in a cabinet on the table.

Gold rings come in boxes.

Gold bracelets come in strings.

The gold necklace is in pieces.

Moreover, such stalls were all around, which made Lin Yi feel like he was in Alibaba's treasure house.

Picking up a gold bracelet and asking, "How much is this?"

There are 11 official languages ​​in South Africa, and English ranks first, so the vast majority of merchants in this market speak English.

The other party looked at the grams, took out a calculator and calculated it, and put it in front of Lin Yi, 2840 rand.

The rand is the name of the South African currency.

Lin Yi quickly calculated in his mind.

Now 1 US dollar can be exchanged for 6.44 rand. This bracelet is 28 grams, and 2840 rand is equivalent to 100 rand per gram, which is equivalent to 440 US dollars per ounce. The current international gold price is 460 US dollars per ounce.

Lin Yixin said it was cheap.

"What is the purity of this?" Lin Yi asked again.

"22K."

The boss replied.

Lin Yi's heart suddenly fell, the international gold price is calculated according to 24K gold, 24K is 'au999', commonly known as three nines, pure gold, 18K is 'au750', 22K gold is 'au916', with a gold content of 91.652%.

In this way, the price of gold equivalent to this bracelet is $488 an ounce.

That is,

Lin Yi bought it and threw it into the system, and immediately lost $28 per ounce, or almost $1 per gram.

of course,

There is also the processing price. If it is buying and selling gold bricks, the price will definitely be much cheaper.

However, Lin Yi still bought the bracelet and paid in cash in US dollars. The other party was very happy to see that Lin Yi paid in US dollars, so he calculated a more favorable price for Lin Yi and saved him a few dollars.

The dollar is very strong in African countries.

After walking around the market twice, Lin Yi bought two more pieces of gold jewelry, a necklace and a gold ring, which cost several hundred dollars.

He took off the sign and walked around to the gold recycling company on the side of the gold store. Gold trading and gold recycling are always gold partners.

Lin Yi took out the bracelet, "I want to sell this bracelet."

The other party didn't ask Lin Yi for any formalities at all, but just weighed and tested it, and then quoted a price. After Lin Yi heard it, it was no different from today's gold price in South Africa when calculating 24K gold.

He calculated.

Once in and out, Lin Yi had an intuitive understanding of the price.

He took out his American bank card and asked them to transfer money to his own bank card. The other party did not hesitate to transfer money to Lin Yi.

In fact, this is one of the ways of money laundering.

Buy it in cash and get a refund by bank card, so that once you withdraw and enter, the money becomes legal money.

Some money laundering companies use this method of moving ants, but it is too slow to use this method for real large amount of money laundering.

But there is also an advantage, that is, it is very troublesome to track down. There may be thousands or even tens of thousands of accounts offline, controlled by computer software. When they are collected in the middle, they will go through many banks in many countries and regions. The entire network investigation Up to now, tens of thousands of accounts and tens of thousands of transactions may be involved. If the investigation unit wants to sort out one by one, it will exhaust you.

And most of them can't figure it out at all. No country can ask all the banks in the world to cooperate with your investigation, and the United States can't do it either.

Leave the gold store.

Lin Yi let the system directly absorb the gold ring and necklace left in the space.

Lin Yi did an experiment in the last world. The golden space can absorb all kinds of valuable currencies, gold and silver, but can only spit out the currency anchored in the world at that time.

In the last world it was RMB,

The world is dollars.

Gold can be exchanged for money after eating, but gold can no longer be spit out.

After the gold was absorbed, some impurities remained. Lin Yixin said that the system wallet is really picky and only eats 24K gold.

As for the price,

Also based on the current international 24K gold price, his wallet has increased by several hundred dollars.

Do the math back and forth.

It's about the same as selling to a recycler,
Lost more than $1 per ounce.

The international gold price is uniform and transparent, and there is no difference between countries. Gold in South Africa is also controlled by the state and handed over to several companies for operation, including domestic operations and exports, which must go through formal procedures.

The gold that Lin Yi bought in the market must be priced according to the international gold price, and then processing fees are added, which is no different from other countries.

The so-called cheap gold in Africa means that underground gold is cheap.

Many privately mined black mines are illegally mined when the state does not allow them. They are cracked down by the government. If they want to sell them, they can only trade them underground. The price of such gold will naturally be much cheaper.

In fact, it is also possible to launder money by depositing cash in the bank, but only a small amount, such as a few thousand dollars each time, but all banks are supervised. If the amount is too large or the number of times is too high, the source of funds will be investigated.

Money laundering is delicate business.

Looking at the time, it was still early. He went around several banks in the urban area and applied for several bank cards.

Naturally, it was in the name of Captain Jack.

There are cards from local banks and international banks. Johannesburg is an international metropolis and one of the largest markets for gold trading. Many big banks have opened branches here.

He went to the street where communication equipment was sold, and bought dozens of new mobile phones and new calling cards in more than a dozen mobile phone stores.

Most of the mobile phones I bought before were bombs.

Now he still has a lot of bombs in his hand, keeping them as spares.

The drug lord could not be as powerful as the FBI in the investigation. He could find Lin Yi and the others by phone, but he was still cautious and planned to change the contact information of several people.

When the plane landed at the airport from Kinshasa, Congo, to Johannesburg, Tommy and Kent walked out of the aisle with only the simplest small package in their hands.

As soon as the two came out, they saw Lin Yi, and Tommy ran to Lin Yi happily: "Jack, I finally saw you again."

As he spoke, he wanted to give Lin Yi a hug.

But when he got to Lin Yi's side, he thought of something again, his face changed and he said angrily: "We were hurt by you this time, do you know that those drug dealers really went, looking for us all over the world, and Senna died too.

"How do you know?" Lin Yi asked.

"A friend of mine on the road called me before Kent and I got on the plane and told me that a group of vicious guys were looking for you all over the world, and they also went to the place where we lived. The people in the Senna car park were killed by them. They arrested Senna and tortured you to ask about your whereabouts, but in the end they couldn't find you and were killed by them."

After Senna died, Lin Yi felt in a good mood.

"It was Senna who introduced me to this job. He should know that it would be dangerous, so he let me go. Maybe this guy didn't have good intentions from the beginning." Lin Yi said.

"What should we do now? Those drug dealers won't let us go. We won't be able to go back to Miami." Tommy said distressed.

Lin Yi smiled and patted Tommy on the shoulder, "Don't worry, I told you on the phone, I'm sure you'll be popular and hot, and I have a good way to get rich."

"What way?"

"Let's go, let's talk at the hotel."

Bring Tommy and Kent to the hotel, introduce Marty to the two of them, and now the foursome gather.

"Eat first, I will arrange work for you when I come back." Lin Yi said.

In the barbecue restaurant downstairs, several people had a full meal, and when they returned to the hotel room, Lin Yi said to the three of them: "To tell you the truth, I belong to an organization, and that organization did the money transfer incident. Just the periphery, now it's getting into the elite."

Lin Yi started making up stories.

"I can't say too much, I can only say so much."

Marty, Tom, and Kent all looked at Lin Yi. From the very beginning, they felt that this 'Jack' was a bit mysterious. It wasn't good to say, but it was not simple anyway.

As far as Jack's driving skills are concerned, he will definitely be good in other places, so why come to Miami to be a fanboy.

As for Marty, he saw with his own eyes that Lin Yi found him with a gun, and there were corpses all over the ground when he went out. It is indeed a bit surprising to say that he did it himself, and he would rather believe that the other party was organized.

"Next, I can form my own team. I want to ask you, would you like to follow me?"

Lin Yi said and looked at the three of them.

Tommy got a little excited.

"Did you carry out the organizational trial mission before, just like the knights of the noble family, who can form their own knights after completing the mission and being awarded the title?"

"That's what it means." Lin Yi nodded.

"Is there anyone famous in your organization?" Kent asked.

Lin Yi frowned, "I know a little bit, but I can't reveal too much to you. By the way, you should all know about me personally. You know the 'Lin' who caused a sensation a few days ago, right?"

Several people nodded together.

"That 'Lin' is the elite of our organization. After he was framed, the organization was very angry, and then launched a series of operations, including court killings and the kidnapping of Turner Manor. Do you think that is what one person can do? There are organizations Help behind the scenes."

Several people opened their mouths in surprise.

It turns out that the organization Jack belongs to is so powerful.

"I would like to join." Marty had nowhere to go, so he joined naturally.

"I am willing too." Tommy also nodded. After hearing Lin Yi's story, he was already a little excited, and felt that he had finally found his future.

"Me too," Kent said.

Several people expressed their willingness to become members of Jack's team.

Lin Yi nodded, "Next, everyone has a job, as long as it is done, I guarantee that each of you can earn enough money to enjoy life."

Lin Yi opened a box and took out two wads of dollars from it, "This is [-] dollars, Tommy Kent, you take the money to buy gold tomorrow, you don't need to be pretty, what we want is gold, and we will return the gold when we get it back." To melt away."

This method is a bit crude, but at the start-up stage, everything is based on achieving goals. Lin Yi's first goal is to launder a sum of money and let Marty complete the registration of 200 companies.

The real money comes later.

Seeing the money, Tommy's eyes lit up, and he picked up two wads of money, put them under his nose, and sniffed them vigorously.

the smell of money,
Tommy didn't care about money laundering at all. He was also a fan before, and he was not a good person. Now he just wants to change his way of life. When he thinks that he has also joined a large organization, he feels full of energy. .

"Don't worry Jack, I promise to complete the task."

Lin Yi looked at Marty, "Marty, let's find out if there is a suitable gold refining, processing and exporting company tomorrow, and buy him. You pretend to be my economist and lawyer."

"No problem." Marty nodded.

Another room was opened for Tommy and Kent, just across from Lin Yi. Early the next morning, the four of them started to move separately.
