Chapter 20 Not sour and not sweet lemon candy

Wang Geng glanced at Kaili and said with a smile, "When you told me this morning, I was really afraid that she would write me a bad check." He took out a check from his pocket, flicked it casually, Pass it to the lobby manager and say,

"Check the authenticity of this check for me first. Is there any problem? Can it be cashed at any time! These days, there are fewer and fewer businessmen who are as honest as your company, so you have to be careful!"

Kelly chuckled and said, "Edison must be mad when he hears you say that, he would trade someone for fifty thousand dollars for a broken invention! And he was worried that he would be cheated by you! I was worried that he would be cheated by you!"

Freeman was secretly surprised, a check for fifty thousand dollars?This guy didn't accept the check, but took out a pair of gauze white gloves from his pocket and put them on, revealing a trace of rigor and meticulousness. :Update text chapter fastest:

The lobby manager carefully took the crumpled check in Wang Geng's hand with his gloved hands.

Soon, he held up the check and looked at the sunlight outside the window, then laid it flat and turned to look at the face of the check. Freeman said respectfully,

"It is indeed a cash check from Morgan Corporation. The signature should be Mr. Thomas Edison's, but for the sake of caution, we have to check his reserved signature. This is a cash check for [-] US dollars. Of course... In fact, we still need to see if there is enough balance in Mr. Thomas Edison's account in my company to pay, please wait a moment!"

The lobby manager stepped back to the door in the direction of the inner room, nodded and saluted Wang Geng and Kaili, then carefully held the check in his hand, closed the door and went in.

Nima, this JP Morgan Company is obviously an investment and savings bank, but it is not called a bank and insists on calling it a company. Wang Geng was slandering in his heart, and said to Kaili,

"That old man Edison doesn't know how much money is left in his account?!"

Kelly smiled and said, "JP Morgan owns the shares of General Electric. I'm not afraid that Edison's account has no money, but I guess the lobby manager must be calling Edison to check with Edison and ask him if he has opened such an account. A big check for you liar!"

"Who is the liar? You are the liar. You said you only drink coffee, but you followed me to the bank. Do you want to follow me when I go to Pfizer?" Wang Geng said angrily.

"Go!"

"Then I'm going to the bathroom!"

"Go! What if you run away! Of course I have to follow!"

"Surrender! I surrender! I've convinced you!"

Just like this, a pair of young people bickered with each other in the VIP reception room of Morgan's company!

Not long after, Freeman, the manager of the lobby, opened the door of the inner room and came out with a happy face, holding the check in his hand, and said to Wang Geng with a smile,

"Mr. Edison's account has enough balance to cash this check. Sir, do you want to withdraw cash or open a personal account with our company and transfer the money directly?"

"Withdraw cash?" Wang Geng recalled the story of the million pounds in his previous life. Obviously, his mere $30 check was far from enough to pretend to be cool, although it was already equivalent to the total income of a Ford auto worker for more than [-] years. .

"Wang Geng, why do you want so much cash? No one will go out with so much cash these days except gangster drug dealers! Be careful!" Kaili grabbed Wang Geng's hand and said anxiously, the girl is really afraid of this guy Walking around the market with $[-] in cash!

"Sir, I still don't know your last name? The reputation and service of our Morgan company are second to none in the United States. You can open a personal account with Morgan company, or you can entrust us with financial management. Now there are many trust investment projects with very high returns. Not bad!" Freeman coaxed from the sidelines.

"His name is Wang Geng! Why don't you read newspapers?" Miss Kaili answered first from the side, saying that the girl reached out and tore off the scarf that Wang Geng still wrapped around his face!

"Hey... you girl..." Wang Geng slandered in his heart, I wanted to open an account with a fake name, but now you have messed up everything.

"It turned out to be Mr. Wang Geng, the hero who saved lives by diving into the Brooklyn Bridge. I am so disrespectful! It is our honor at JP Morgan to serve you!"

In fact, when Freeman called Edison just now, he already knew that Edison had written the check to Wang Geng last night, but since the guest covered his face, he had to wait for him to give his name, otherwise It's a faux pas.

"If you don't cash it, how much annual interest can you pay if you open an account with Morgan & Co.?" Wang Geng asked straightforwardly.

In fact, with the outbreak of World War I, European overseas capital flowed into the United States unaffected by the war, bringing unprecedented prosperity to the American economy. In order to attract more capital, long-term interest rates in the United States are rapidly rising.

"Now the average three-year deposit interest rate in the United States is 5%, and it was 4% a year ago, and it may continue to rise to 6% or even higher a year later!" Freeman said truthfully.

"That's all? What's 6% enough for? It's been three years since the world war ended. You're delaying my fortune!" Wang Geng said in a joking tone.

"Well, it's safer to simply make deposits without risk. Of course, we still have a lot of trust investment projects with an average annual return of 10% to 20%. Of course, those are risky and may lose money!"

Freeman said calmly, now he is sure to convince this New York hero who somehow got $[-] from Edison.

It is an advantage for people of yellow race to open a small shop in New York's Chinatown and work hard to earn some hard money. When it comes to the threshold and morality of financial management and investment, how can they be the opponent of the lobby manager of JP Morgan headquarters.

"Don't you have an annuity project here?" Kelly asked from the side.

"Of course, Mr. Wang Geng is in his early twenties this year. If we make a 30-year pension annuity deposit project, the annual interest we can give is 8%. Of course, the principal cannot be used for these 30 years. If it is forcibly suspended, The punitive damages clause will bring unnecessary losses to customers,” Freeman said with a smile.

"It doesn't need to be so complicated. In this way, the [-] U.S. dollars does not need to be cashed out. You can directly open an account with JP Morgan and transfer it in. You need a current deposit, but the service level is the highest. I believe that the [-] U.S. dollars is just a small amount. It's just the beginning," Wang Geng said confidently.

"Aren't you going to spend the fifty thousand dollars in one go like a nouveau riche?"

Kaili blinked her big eyes and looked at Wang Geng. The girl really didn't like Wang Geng's bad habit of spending money like a nouveau riche.

"By the way, bring me $[-] in cash, preferably less than $[-], and put the rest in the current account of the new account. In addition, please prepare the check book for me." Wang Geng ordered the lobby manager.

The fellow turned his head and smiled at Kelly and said,

"I don't want my child to be caught by a wolf. A mere [-] dollars is negligible for what I want to do. I'm going to discuss a big deal later. It may take a long time. Do you want to send it to you first?" Back to the hospital?"

"Don't even think about it, I'm your personal nurse. I'll be there wherever you are today! There's no way to act alone!" Kelly turned her head and pouted.

"As you wish, I will call someone to help you complete all the procedures. Well, you are fully qualified as a VIP customer of our company. There will be a full-time account manager in charge of your account. Of course there is no problem with the check book. Please Wait a moment" said the lobby manager politely nodded at the two, and then exited the room.

"Here, how about this candy!" Kelly stood up from the opposite side of the sofa, took a few candies from the sugar bowl on the coffee table, and then sat down next to Wang Geng.

The nurse skillfully peeled off the candy wrapper and handed the candy to Wang Geng's mouth with shyness and anticipation in his eyes.

Nima, this is really a sugar-coated cannonball. If I come, I will be safe. If I eat your candy, I will be responsible for you for the rest of my life?

Besides, you in the United States have a monogamous system, but I can't stand it. I am a Chinese now. Our pimples are a habit of three wives and four concubines. You can try it if you are not afraid of being wronged.

While Wang Geng was thinking about it, he opened his mouth and bit the candy from the girl's hand. The touch between his lips and the girl's warm palm felt wonderful. Although the girl was blushing, she bravely looked into Wang Geng's eyes Without blinking.

"What kind of candy is this, is it sour or sweet?" Wang Geng frowned and said, taking the candy wrapper from Kaili's hand and looking at it.

"Huh? Doesn't it taste right? This is the imported lemon fruit candy produced by the British Cadbury Candy Company. I used to like it the most!" Kelly peeled off a candy and put it in her mouth.
