Chapter 515 What is capitalism (backwards)

Seeing Lu Yiming's lack of remorse, Dominic Burton was so angry that his teeth were itching. He wanted to take out his pistol, punch a hole in Lu Yiming's forehead, and send him to see God.

"Aren't you ever ashamed of what you did? Do you know how many people will lose their jobs and their families will be destroyed by your actions?"

Dominic Burton stared hard at Lu Yiming, his sharp eyes seeming to pierce him entirely.

Facing Dominic Burton's hostile and angry gaze, Lu Yiming shrugged slightly, not afraid of his aggressiveness at all, but said in a relaxed tone: "Everything I did was within the rules. You

Instead of criticizing me, it’s better to criticize those who make the rules. As for shame, I’m sorry, I’m not an American. What does everything that happens here have to do with me?”

Seeing that Lu Yiming was so unrepentant and stubborn, Dominic Burton wanted to scold him loudly, but unexpectedly Alex Acosta had already rushed over with his lawyer and Li Yiwen.

Detective Lancelot Harrison hurried forward to greet him, but Alex Acosta ignored him and walked straight to Lu Yiming and said in a gentle tone: "Mr. Lu, I have made you suffer."

Yes, don’t worry. After paying the bail, you can leave immediately. However, in the recent period, you may be asked to stay in the United States temporarily and just treat it as a trip to relax."

Lu Yiming suddenly felt unhappy, frowning and asked: "Can't leave the United States? Are there restrictions on leaving the country? Doesn't this mean there is no evidence to accuse me of committing a crime? I still have to go to school. Can you afford to compensate for the loss of delaying my schooling?"

Of course Alex Acosta didn't believe what Lu Yiming said. He is already the richest man in Xia State. What difference does it make if you go to school or not? No matter how good you are in school, won't they still have to work for you after they graduate?

Lancelot Harrison sighed and took a step forward to explain patiently: "Hey, these are regulations, and we have to follow the procedures. I hope Mr. Lu can be more considerate of our difficulties."

In the United States, public opinion factors must be considered in many matters. After all, many politicians are elected by votes, so they cannot make voters unhappy.

But now that the U.S. stock market is being shorted, the Bureau of Investigation directly sends people to take Lu Yiming away openly, which means that Lu Yiming is a suspect. Even if there is no evidence, at least he must show off and go through the procedures, and cannot just let him go.

Otherwise, if the matter is instigated by a thoughtful person, it may become difficult to deal with.

Lu Yiming thought for a while and knew that he could not leave the United States for the time being, so he could only avoid the difficulty and nodded: "Okay, then you can clear my name as soon as possible."

Dominic Burton, standing aside with a ferocious face, expressed that he could not bear Lu Yiming's words.

The facts are there and the evidence is conclusive, but you still have the nerve to claim your innocence?

Are you innocent?

But there is no way. Although a discerning person will know what is going on at a glance, civilized society is all about evidence. Without evidence, no one can do anything to Lu Yiming.

"Then can I leave now?"

Although the seafood dinner has not been finished yet, Lu Yiming does not miss it at all. After all, compared to the warm villa, this place is too simple. Staying for a second longer is not in line with the temperament of a rich man.

"Of course, Mr. Lu, please come here." Lancelot Harrison smiled slightly and bent down to make a "please" gesture very gentlemanly. It looked very funny. It was obvious that he, who was in a high position, did not

The talent of being a waiter.

Seeing Lu Yiming and others leaving, Dominic Burton quit and angrily protested to Lancelot Harrison: "How can you just let him go like this? Do you know what he has done? I and I

None of the criminals we have seen in years were as destructive as this one!"

Lu Yiming, who had not gone far, seemed to hear Dominic Burton's roar. He immediately turned around and waved to Lancelot Harrison with a smile: "Mr. Justice Detective, we will see you next time."

Dominic Burton was so angry. He had never seen a "criminal" dare to be so arrogant. He simply regarded law enforcement agencies as nothing. He couldn't help but walked towards Lu Yiming, holding the handle of the gun at his waist with his right hand, ready to use it at any time.

There is a possibility of taking out a gun and shooting.

It was true that Lu Yiming insulted them so harshly that he simply sat on top of their heads and shit!

Lancelot Harrison did not expect that Lu Yiming would dare to provoke even him, the detective, and of course he was very angry. But he was able to sit in his current position, naturally not by impulsiveness and recklessness, but by

Of the brain.

The reason why Lu Yiming dares to provoke them here is because there are people behind Lu Yiming, and they even do it deliberately. As long as they take action, they will be caught, and it will be easy to lose their jobs. Maybe they will do it again.

Someone committed suicide.

Lancelot Harrison also knew a thing or two about the bloodshed of the upper class.

Lancelot Harrison grabbed Dominic Burton who was almost losing his mind and said helplessly: "Don't be impulsive. Don't you want your job? Do you know who the person next to him is? That's the political world.

A big shot like that, if he just lifts his foot, he can trample us to death like bedbugs."

Seeing Lu Yiming and others leaving, Dominic Burton, who had nowhere to vent his inner anguish, turned around and kicked his desk to the ground. He walked around the office manically, with a ferocious look on his face, as if his body was

There were ten thousand lice biting him, but he was helpless.

"Absurd! It's so ridiculous! Stealing and robbing a few hundred dollars is a felony and you will be jailed. However, these criminals who shorted the stock market and blatantly stole tens of billions of dollars from retail investors are still

There is no need to be punished by law at all, what happened to the United States?"

Lancelot Harrison patted him on the shoulder and sighed: "Look at it, the world is so unfair, we can only do what we can."

After walking out of the office, Lu Yiming straightened out his wrinkled suit and complained: "I don't like wearing this kind of stuff. It's so restrained that it will get wrinkled if I'm not careful. It's very ugly and not humane at all."

Hua. Shouldn’t wearing clothes be based on comfort? This world is really unreasonable."

Lu Yiming complained as he walked outside, but as soon as he walked out of the office building, a group of reporters who came after hearing the news surrounded them.

A reporter put the microphone directly to Lu Yiming's mouth and asked an extremely sharp question: "Mr. Lu, now everyone calls you the thief from the east. What do you think of this?"

Lu Yiming cleared his throat and retorted in fluent English: "That's nonsense. I am a legitimate businessman. I came to the United States just for investment. I am not a big thief. All I do is legitimate business."

Another reporter seemed not to have heard Lu Yiming's rebuttal at all, and then asked: "The saltwater fund you invested in shorted U.S. stocks, which brought huge losses to the entire United States. How do you plan to explain this matter?

?”

This is very heartbreaking to say. After all, although short selling is legal, ordinary people don't think so.

They will only think that Lu Yiming robbed them of their money and made them impoverished.

Lu Yiming was just about to speak when suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.

Why does this problem seem to have a pitfall?

Didn’t we just explain that short selling is legal? Why did the focus suddenly jump to causing losses to the United States?

If we follow his words, wouldn't this agree with the statement "causing huge losses to the United States"?

Otherwise, what would you explain?

Preset answer question method.

As a high-intensity surfer in the 21st century, Lu Yiming had encountered various cases of this type on the Internet every day, especially news about slander and slander by European and American media people, so he reacted immediately.

"I'm just an investor. What does it have to do with Saltwater Fund shorting U.S. stocks? There are so many shootings in the United States every year, but I don't see you going to Lockheed Martin?"

Lu Yiming's reply left the reporters speechless for a moment.

The gentlemen on Capitol Hill have been discussing the issue of banning guns for many years, but the interests involved are too great. How dare they, young reporters, to make random remarks?

However, some people could not be persuaded by words. Several Texas red-necks rushed over angrily and yelled at Lu Yiming: "Go back to Asia, you yellow-skinned devil!"

These are all Texans who lost their jobs due to the bankruptcy of Enron. They don't care whether what Lu Yiming said is reasonable. They only know that because of Lu Yiming and Saltwater Fund, they lost their jobs, lost their income, and lost their money.

The house has lost all the beauty in life!

Seeing the red neck putting on a desperate posture, the reporters who were still thinking about how to continue to make things difficult for Lu Yiming suddenly brightened up and rushed forward one after another, accusing Lu Yiming of causing everyone to lose their jobs, leading to bankruptcy, and making Lu Yiming

Go back to Xia Kingdom.

Seeing that the interview was about to turn into a street fight, Zhao Tiezhu and Alex Acosta's bodyguards joined forces to protect Lu Yiming and Alex Acosta.

Lu Yiming said unhappily: "Do you think I'm an Asian and easy to bully? Are you engaging in racial discrimination? Is this what you call democracy?"

The reporters were caught off guard by Lu Yiming's blow.

In the United States, freedom, democracy and opposition to racial discrimination are the biggest political correctness. Lu Yiming directly brought these two killer weapons out, which directly silenced these reporters.

Lu Yiming couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, he still had to use magic to defeat magic.

The car quickly left the crowd. Li Yiwen was still frightened and complained: "Who are these people? They are too barbaric and unreasonable. Did they say that America is the beacon of civilization?"

Lu Yiming's face didn't look good either. He was about to get a beating just now. Just a few punches and kicks from those powerful Texas men. It was definitely not a good experience. Those who were not lucky would probably be beaten.

He had to be hospitalized immediately.

"I was just brought back today to assist in the investigation. The news came out immediately, and they even brought people to block the door. If there is no one behind this, even a dog wouldn't believe it."

Alex Acosta said with a gloomy face: "I'm sorry for bringing you a bad experience. I will investigate this matter clearly. They all rushed to me. They are really bold!"

The car drove outside Lu Yiming's villa in Manhattan. The place was also crowded with reporters and protestors. Even the courtyard wall was covered with various graffiti and hung with various garbage.

Obviously, angry crowds also attacked this place. People who went bankrupt due to the stock market crash angrily targeted Lu Yiming.

Lu Yiming couldn't help but sigh when he saw this scene in the car.

This is really liberal democracy.

"Does this count as breaking into a private home?"

Alex Acosta immediately said seriously: "Fine, of course! I will definitely give you a satisfactory explanation."

After taking a look from a distance, Lu Yiming knew that he might not be able to return here for the time being, so he immediately said: "Let's find another place to live. I hope there won't be any accidents this time."

Alex Acosta immediately agreed: Mr. Lu, please don’t worry, I will arrange a new place for you, and I will guarantee that no one will bother you again."

Lu Yiming is now everyone's cash cow. No matter who it is, if you want to make money with Lu Yiming, you have to be polite.

Today is a money society, and this is especially true in a capitalist country like the United States. Even presidential campaigns are contested over whose funds are richer. Politicians maintain their positions by relying on the power of money. If you don’t have money, who will cheat on you?
