Year: I had a good time when I was young

Chapter 583: It’s all about money

When the guests arrived at the ranch, Chu Qianqian saw that among the guests was the girl who had been rescued on the observation tower before.

Only then did he realize that the father and daughter were not here to see Margaret, but to thank him.

Then he started thinking about where he had exposed his identity. Fortunately, the answer was soon revealed. Seeing that the problem was in the saddle, Chu Qianqian could only smile helplessly. No matter how much he thought, there would always be omissions.

Not surprisingly, the subsequent conversation was extremely harmonious. Chu Xiangqian intended to establish a good relationship with the senator who came to his door.

Robert Alessandro is also interested in making friends with Chu Xiangqian, a wealthy man who saved his own children.

To put it bluntly, Chinese politics is a game of power and money.

After just chatting for a while, Chu Xiangqian got the promise of breeding subsidies.

Every year, the subsidies in this area alone may amount to US$70,000 to 80,000.

This amount of money is not worth mentioning to Chu Xiangqian, but for ranchers whose main business is ranching, this amount of money may account for several percent of the ranch's annual profit.

Naturally, Chu Xiangqian would not say nothing.

He smiled and hinted that the two funds established by the ranch in the small town of Solvang would like to hire Robert Alessandro as a consultant.

By the way, if necessary, the two funds are willing to provide support of at least US$4 per year.

Suddenly Robert Alessandro's smile became even brighter.

Although this money is nominally charity money, how it is used depends entirely on Robert.

He can even use it to gain votes for himself.

Both parties were quite satisfied with this initial contact, and it was a good start.

Margaret and Liber Alessandro get along well, and they even took the initiative to invite Liber to London to participate in the opening game of the Triple Crown in May.

Not only will he take her to see the champion knight, but if he's lucky, he might even be able to take a photo with the new champion horse.

As for what is good luck, it is naturally that the new horse owner is friendly to the royal family. Otherwise, if you encounter an owner who is not interested in the royal family, even Margaret will be ignored.

Not to mention Margaret.

But since the English Triple Crown was mentioned, Margaret hugged Chu's forward arm and shook it a few times.

"Dear, Mr. Harder and the others have already shipped Wu Zui to London in advance to prepare for the first game of the Triple Crown. If you are free, don't forget to go back and watch the game.

Also, if we can find a sweat horse that is better than Wu Zui, it would be best to participate this year. I still hope that our horse will win the championship. "

After Chu Xiangqian heard this, he rolled his eyes at Margaret. It was actually very simple to win the championship. If you upgrade to a few levels, even an Arabian horse can outperform a thoroughbred horse in a speed race.

But his own horse wins the championship every year. In less than three or five years, the attention of horse racing as a sport will be greatly reduced.

As for Wu Zhui, who participated in the competition this time, half of his shares have been sold to 9 ghost guys including Harder, Nelson, Bridge, Gebai, Lucas, Blair, Charles, Hahn, and Turner.

After Wu Zhui wins the championship, most people will not care at all why only 10 of the 9 shareholders appear.

Moreover, winning the championship is more beneficial to oneself overall.

Only then did Alessandro and his daughter realize that the young Asian super-rich in front of them was the real owner of the Triple Crown of English Horse Racing.

And there is another good horse this year, aiming to win the Triple Crown again.

The father and daughter instantly became horse racing fans and started chatting non-stop about topics related to horse racing.

I heard that Chu Qianqian also has a large professional horse farm on Hong Kong Island, which raises more than 200 thoroughbred horses, sweat horses, Arabian horses, Andalicians, Hanoverians and other horses.

Lieber-Alessandro couldn't help but look at Margaret in prayer, begging her to take him to the racecourse.

Margaret's smile suddenly became unnatural. London belonged to her territory, and Hong Kong Island was Xue Jinglan's territory. This was already certain in Margaret's mind.

This means that she will not go to Hong Kong Island again if it is not necessary.

Similarly, Margaret did not want Xue Jinglan to appear in London.

You can only look at Chu Qianqian and let him make the decision.

Chu Xiangqian naturally did not want to break the tacit understanding, and smiled and said to Liber, "If you want to go to Hong Kong Island, I will ask my sister to pick you up, accompany you, and be responsible for your safety.

As for Margaret and I, we really had no time to spare during this period. "

After finishing speaking, Chu Xiangqian pointed to the several boxes that had been taken down, "If you hadn't been our guests, Margaret and I would have left today."

Robert was cunning and saw that Margaret's expression was a little unnatural, so he quickly pulled Libel and said, "We will talk about other things after your brother's injury is healed."

Only then did Libel feel at ease.

After lunch, they rested for half an hour. Seeing that the temperature was not too hot and the sun was sometimes obscured by clouds, Margaret took Liber, who had a very lively personality, to go horse riding.

Although the pasture is full of quarter horses, these 20 or so horses are all fresh horses in the novice village, and their physical fitness is generally better than the quarter horses in the real world.

Margaret liked the maroon quart specially prepared for her by Chu Xiangqian.

Not only is her ability to circle piles super strong, but her acceleration ability within a distance of 60 meters is better than any horse under Margaret's name.

As for the champion knight, it has always been in the name of Chu Xiangqian. The whole world will mistake it for Margaret. However, it was Chu Xiangqian who gave all the photo and interview opportunities to Margaret after the champion knight won the championship. .

And this little girl is eager to be in the limelight every year.

Chu looked forward and looked at Robert. The old man thought for a while and simply followed.

When he saw his daughter and Margaret, dressed in cowboy attire, riding horses in the fence, Robert and Chu Qianqian whispered.

"Stark, do you know about the Orms?"

Chu Qianqian frowned and thought for a few seconds before he remembered that he seemed to have read about this Aum sect in the newspapers here. It was a new sect that only appeared in California in the past ten years.

Chu Qianqian had heard in his previous life that there were so many sects in the Magnesium Kingdom, some of which were good or bad, but most of them were cheating money and doing evil in the name of preaching.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is an oblique teaching.

Also famous is South Korea, where cheating for money and sex is common, and some are even more exaggerated.

Seeing that he had heard about it, Robert thought Chu Xiangqian already knew the trouble involved.

"I heard that the monster family seems to be related to the Om faction. It wouldn't be a bad thing for you and Margaret to leave at this time."

Chu was stunned for a moment, and then he understood what Robert meant, but he didn't explain much.

Before seeing off Robert and the reluctant Lieber in the afternoon, Chu Xiangqian asked specifically, "Do you know when the Aum sect will get together?"

Robert's pupils shrank, and it sounded like he planned to take care of the Aum faction as well.

If he could really do this, his evaluation of the young man in front of him would have to be raised by two levels again. There is no shortage of rich people in the Magnesium Kingdom, but there are not many families with money and force.

It's not that the rich don't want to cultivate force, but even if they have money, they may not be able to conquer the masters, and they are more afraid that the force of their subordinates will backfire on them.

In fact, Robert hoped that Chu Xiangqian could really deal with the Aum sect, lest those lunatics end up focusing on his son, daughter and the other four young people who were lucky enough to escape.

"I will inform you as soon as there is news."

Chu nodded forward, and then found an excuse to put Margaret, her bodyguard and others on the plane to London.

But he was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he planned to wait at the ranch for another three days. If there was no news, he would go back to Beijing directly.

Unexpectedly, after just one day of waiting, he received a call from Robert. The leader of the Om sect was meeting with his close followers at a manor outside Los Angeles.

Chu Xiangqian said "I understand" and hung up the phone.

Then he directed Titmouse to fly to Los Angeles, and after spending some time, he found the manor that Robert mentioned.

Unexpectedly, this place occupies quite a large area, at least twenty or thirty acres.

In the evening, Chu Xiangqian drove to Los Angeles alone.

When he arrived outside the manor, Chu Xiangqian was not in a hurry to take action. He always had to first determine whether the Aum sect would really attack him.

Otherwise there would be no need to kill anymore.

For Chu Qianqian, sneaking into a manor that didn't even have surveillance was as easy as visiting a park.

By the time he had explored all the houses, people had already appeared on the balcony on the third floor of the villa.

What made Chu Xiangqian embarrassed was that a crazy party of seventy or eighty people was being held in the villa, and the sound made him want to move.

After forcing myself to calm down for more than two hours, I still heard something I didn't want to hear.

Although he didn't know if the person who talked about revenge was the leader of the Aum sect, Chu Xiangqian heard several people saying that they wanted to find out the murderer and then kill the other person's whole family.

Then there was a chorus of agreement around him. In this case, there was no need to say anything more.

There are many ways to kill these people, but if a hundred people die at once, it will definitely attract the attention of the whole country, and even the world.

After thinking about it, Chu Xiangqian suddenly felt something in his heart. Since this group of Aum sect people believed that babies with mutated bodies were the hope for becoming stronger, they actually created three monsters that were indeed different from ordinary people in terms of size or agility. come out.

Then get a dozen orcs to come over and kill them, leaving a few orc corpses that look good enough. The people of the Magnesium country might just think that this is the biochemical weapon of the Orm faction backfired on them.

But after all, Robert Alessandro knew about this matter. After Chu Qianqian thought about it, he gave up the plan of releasing the orcs.

In this case, we can only use the more difficult method.

He took out a few throwing knives from his storage compartment and twirled them in his hands. When he went downstairs, he greeted people with flying knives.

Then he took the people into Novice Village, and by the time he cleared out all the people in the villa, it was already past 1 o'clock in the morning.

Then his eyes focused on the leader of the Aum sect, whose expression was already dull.

This guy has founded this sect for more than ten years and is still so famous in California. He will definitely get a lot of money from defrauding him.

Instead of killing him directly and taking advantage of the country's government or bank, it would be better to torture him to extract a confession and ask him where the money is hidden or what the password of his bank account is.

No one can withstand Chu Xiangqian's forced confession.

Taking people into Novice Village and giving them a set of torture and confession packages, Chu Xiangqian quickly obtained several bank account numbers and passwords.

It's a pity that this leader has only been around for seven or eight years, and his total wealth is 40 to 50 million US dollars.

But there is only 7 or 8 million in cash.

Chu Xiangqian cursed a few words in his mind, and suddenly he had a thought and forced the leader to sign an agreement to sell all the fixed assets in his name.

The next morning, Robert Alessandro was invited by phone to have morning tea in a restaurant and handed him the agreement.

After Robert opened it and read it, his face changed instantly.

After a while, he asked, "Is Dorrance Orm still alive?"

Chu shrugged forward and pointed to the ground, "Going to see Satan."

Robert was both happy and a little regretful when he said this, "Then this matter will be difficult to handle."

Chu Qianqian smiled nonchalantly, "I only want 20% of the total value of these asset transfer agreements. I don't care how you cash them in or legalize them.

But I just want cash. "

Robert then smiled. Even though Dorrance Om of the Om faction was dead, as long as there was this asset transfer agreement, it was not difficult to transfer the ownership.

If he just bought the relationship and deducted the share that Chu Xiangqian asked for, if the benefits obtained were not big enough, Robert would naturally not take the risk.

But if Chu Xiangqian only needs 2%, then the business will be done.

Even if Dorrance Orm is not dead, Robert will find a way to send him to death. Otherwise, how will he inherit the wealth he has defrauded for many years?

A few days later, there were no reports in newspapers or on the radio about the disappearance of 70 or 80 people in an estate outside Los Angeles.

It seems that everything is exactly as Chu Xiangqian thought. As long as the interests are big enough, the politicians of Magnesia don't care about the life and death of ordinary people.

In the past few days, Chu Xiangqian has also obtained all the cash from Dorrance Om, and Robert also personally sent 700 million US dollars.

Chu Xiangqian calculated in his mind that Robert valued Dorrance Orm's fixed assets at US$3500 million, which was considered a fair price.

After getting the money, Chu Xiangqian was naturally unwilling to delay it any longer.

He got on a plane and flew directly to Hong Kong Island. As soon as he got off the plane, he took a taxi to the dock and stored 60 tons of grain in the dock warehouse.

Then he called Qian Guotai and asked him to notify someone to transport the grain.

Upon hearing that a full 60 tons of wheat had been put into storage, Qian Guotai's voice trembled with excitement.

Chu Xiangqian listened for a long time before he understood. It was already mid-April, and he could basically draw a conclusion as to whether the food harvest in many places would fail.

Therefore, these 60 tons can be regarded as greatly easing the pressure from above, and also mean that Chu Xiangqian can still obtain food stably from abroad for the time being.

Qian Guotai then hesitated to ask whether he could owe the food payment, but Chu Xiangqian directly mentioned the matter of 9 Mosingan rifles and 30 bullets.

Of course, these weapons and ammunition are not worth 60 tons of wheat.

Qian Guotai originally thought that Chu Xiangqian would let his superiors owe him first, but he didn't expect that Chu Xiangqian just thought about it and said it would be free.
