After Locke told how he had made 11 million with the help of Mendes Repair Shop, Marian and Li Bo fell silent again.

Marian immediately found the key point and asked directly: “What is your relationship with Sarah Mendes? Why would they help you like this?”

Li Bo didn’t say anything, his eyes changed instantly when he looked at Locke, his face became very gloomy, and he said in a deep voice: “Where did you get this money?”

Marian immediately realized that something was wrong and said in surprise: “Didn’t he make money by selling turbochargers?”

Li Bo said coldly: “Except for selling flour, what business have you seen that can make more than 10 million in such a short time…”

Marian looked at Locke in disbelief and shouted angrily: “Locke, you actually sell flour…”

She raised her hand and slapped Locke, and Locke hurriedly got up and dodged, he didn’t want to be beaten in vain.

Besides, doesn’t he have any face?

Li Bo said again: “How can a turbocharger have such a high profit? How much is a car…”

Mariann heard the second sentence and realized that she had misunderstood. She stopped chasing and just stared at Locke coldly.

Locke looked at Marian defensively and said to Li Bo dissatisfiedly: “Dad, can you finish it at once?”

He was not surprised that his father could see something wrong immediately. He was even a little proud. He was worthy of being the director of KPMG.

Since Locke deliberately showed off his wealth this time, he did not plan to continue hiding it. There are now more than 300 million in his space. It is impossible to leave it like this. If he relies on him to wash it, I don’t know how many years it will take.

Now the family just needs money. Marbury’s sea view villa has almost emptied the funds that the family can use.

Lebeck also wants to buy a farm, and Marian wants to set up her own law firm. They all need money. It’s just right to take some out so as not to put it in the space to eat, uh, occupy space in vain.

Li Bo was the audit director of KPMG, his uncle Glenn was a senior director of the IRS, and Marian was mainly engaged in business law and was about to set up her own law firm.

Finance, taxation, law, one-stop service.

Let them worry about it, he didn’t want to worry about money laundering anymore.

But he didn’t plan to tell them the full amount, for fear of scaring them, and he had to give them a period of adaptation.

Marian frowned, looking suspicious, “Todd, what’s going on?”

Li Bo took off the watch on his hand and wanted to throw it away, but after a moment of hesitation, he put it back in the watch box, staring at Locke with regret, how happy he was to receive the gift just now, how disappointed and angry he was now.

He said in a deep voice: “He is selling turbochargers as a cover, he is laundering money…”

“Money laundering?”

Marian reacted instantly, her face became gloomy, she couldn’t believe that Locke would do something illegal, and how did such a large sum of money come from?

She said puzzledly: “Locke, why are you like this? Our family is not short of money. Your father and I have taught you since childhood that you must rely on your own hands to obtain wealth. Your future is more than 10 million…” Li Bo’s expression was uncertain. He looked at Locke with disappointment and said coldly: “Tell me the source of this money now, I will see how many loopholes there are. Humph, you are so smart. Is this called money laundering? Anyone with a discerning eye can see what’s going on. Once the IRS is watching…” “I asked you last time!” Locke muttered. He could see that although Marian and Li Bo were very angry, they were more disappointed in him. Despite this, they were still thinking about how to clean up for him. He spread his hands and said, “I got this money with my own hands. Jester taught me since I was a child that wealth comes from plunder…”

“Dad, there is a sentence in our university Chinese textbook, if you don’t take what God gives, you will be blamed, if you don’t take it when the time comes, you will suffer the consequences…”

Locke suddenly said something in Chinese, and he looked as if it was a matter of course, “I think this money is what I deserve. If I don’t take it, it will bring disaster…”

“Locke. Li, are you going to piss me off to death?”

Marianne was so angry that she was about to take action again, but Locke ran to the other side of the table.

Li Bo laughed at Locke’s sudden burst of Chinese. If it were normal, he would have a good chat with Locke about this sentence, “Mary, listen to him first…”

Marianne took a deep breath. She was really angry. She really couldn’t understand why Locke did such a thing.

Everything was obviously going in a good direction. She was going to establish her own law firm, the family’s farm area would double, and Locke himself had found a girlfriend from an old money family.

Why…

She stared at Locke coldly, “Tell me clearly, where did the money come from? How many people know?”

Locke replied: “ExceptYou, no one knows…”

Li Bo and Marian breathed a sigh of relief, Marian hurriedly asked: “Todd, should we return the money…”

Locke asked in a lost voice: “Mum, are you sure you want to return it?”

Mary Ann scolded: “Shut up, don’t call me mum!”

Li Bo looked helpless and soothed: “Mary, why don’t you go out and calm down first, let me understand what happened first?”

Mary Ann took a deep breath again, “OK, I won’t talk anymore! ”

She stared at Locke with a cold face, “Go on…”

It was the first time Locke saw Marian so angry, but he was not afraid. He believed that when she knew the real amount, her attitude would definitely change.

He said: “Do you still remember that Johnny Dyson, the leader of the Copernicus organization, shot me when I was awarded the medal last time? The money was found in Johnny Dyson’s safe house. If I don’t take the money, the remnants of the Copernicus organization will take it over. They will use the money to continue to retaliate against me and you. For the safety of our whole family, do you think I should take the money…”

“…”

Marian and Li Bo looked at each other again. They didn’t expect that the money came from the Copernicus organization, the terrorist organization that forced them to live in a safe house.

The coldness on Marian’s face eased a little, and she said earnestly: “Locke, although this is indeed a large sum of money, I think you should report it. I don’t want your life to be tainted! ”

Li Bo was not so angry anymore, he nodded and said, “I support your mother, although 11 million is a big number, it is not worth it for you to bear the stain…”

He switched to Chinese and said, “You studied Chinese in college, you should have learned this sentence, a gentleman loves money, but he gets it in a proper way…”

Locke interrupted Li Bo in Chinese, “Dad, this money is more than 11 million!”

Li Bo was stunned and said, “How much is that?”

Locke replied, “I didn’t count it specifically, there are about 110 million in cash and 660 pounds of gold…”

“…”

Li Bo was stunned again, turned his head and looked at Marian, speechless for a while.

Another sentence suddenly popped up in his mind, those who steal pearls are thieves, those who steal countries are marquises.

Marian didn’t understand what the father and son were talking about at all. She stared anxiously and shouted dissatisfiedly, “Hey, what is wrong with your guys? Why are you suddenly speaking Chinese! Todd, what are you talking about?”
