Chapter 128: Uncle Andy
Just when the two of them had had breakfast and were drinking delicious and fragrant coffee.
Uncle Andy called and asked He Lina to take Guan Hao to his office to meet him.
Guan Hao admired Uncle Andy from the bottom of his heart. He was so old and had experienced the tense and exciting robbery last night, but he could still arrange to meet Guan Hao so early.
His physical condition and spirit of keeping his promise are worthy of Guan Hao's admiration.
Guan Hao followed He Lina out of the hotel room with awe and a little anxiety, and went to Uncle Andy's office on the top floor of the hotel's administrative floor.
As a well-known figure in City L and a well-known billionaire in Country A, even though Mr. Andy didn't have much rest last night, he experienced the most serious armed robbery since the establishment of the hotel, which not only left him physically and mentally exhausted , what happened last night also caused the hotel to suffer huge losses.
But this does not affect his ability to go to work on time every day, every week, every month, 365 days a year.
Successful people have their own reasons for success.
One of Uncle Andy's secrets to success is to always be punctual and keep your appointments.
At 10:15 in the morning, Guan Hao and He Lina came to Uncle Andy's office as scheduled.
Uncle Andy's secretary brought the two of them to Uncle Andy who was watching the news.
Guan Hao habitually glanced at the layout and decoration of the office, and he understood: anyone would be curious about the office of a well-known rich man.
Uncle Andy's office is very large, with a visual inspection of more than 100 square meters. The furnishings inside are relatively simple. Unlike the big bosses in country H who decorate their offices magnificently, Uncle Andy's office is mainly practical. , which strengthens the function of home, which may be related to the fact that Andy considers the company as his home all year round.
The office is divided according to functions such as office, reception, entertainment, and living life.
The entire decoration style focuses on home style. The atmosphere created by the entire house makes people feel as if they are back at home when they walk into the room. It is very warm and comfortable.
The furniture in the room is all made of natural oak commonly used in country A. What is impressive are the decorations hanging on the walls. There are exquisite, simple and newly decorated antique firearms hanging on several walls.
This shows that Uncle Andy is a lover of antique firearms.
Guan Hao also found a photo frame on Uncle Andy's desk. The photo inside was of a young soldier and a young man of mixed race.
"Hao, you're here! Please take a seat! Maybe you have to wait for me for a while. The Fuke News will be over in ten minutes."
Watching Fox News at 10 o'clock every day is a habit developed by the elderly for decades. A leader who needs to control various resources at all times needs to collect various information in a timely manner, analyze it, and make the information useful for him.
Guan Hao nodded to Andy with a smile. He carried two paper bags of coffee and sat respectfully on Andy's left hand side, while He consciously sat on Uncle Andy's right hand side. I am like an obedient good student who quietly watches the news with the old man.
The picture on the news was actually a report on the robbery that took place at the MGM Hotel last night.
Reports say that last night a group of gangsters broke into the underground secret vault of the MGM Hotel, the largest D venue in Lacheng, and stole an unspecified amount of cash before fleeing. The police are currently pursuing the robbers with all their strength.
After watching the news, the old man turned off the TV and said kindly to Guan Hao beside him:
"Thank God, Vincent is out of danger this morning. There is no doubt that you saved him in time."
"Great!" Classmate He on the side said happily.
"Hao, I sincerely thank you, do you know? Vincent has been with me for almost 25 years. He joined me when he was a child without relatives. In my eyes, he is mine. child."
"Uncle Andy, you're welcome, I did what I should do."
"By the way, I heard from Lisa that you like coffee, so I brought you some coffee from my family's plantation in the Kingdom of the Islands. I hope you like it!" Guan Hao said and handed the coffee bag to you. Uncle Andy.
"Thank you. If you want to have a good taste, Laurasa will make coffee, and Hao and I will also have a good chat!"
"Are you coming to Lacheng from country H to play?"
"No, I came from country h to country a to visit relatives. My family members work in city j."
"Is it Chinatown in City J?"
"That's right!"
"It seems that I have always been destined to your Country H!" Uncle Andy pointed to my photo frame on the desk and said.
"The soldier in this photo is me. The other man is Lisa's father. We met in Mingzhu 30 years ago. At that time, I was still a soldier and was stationed in Mingzhu because Lisa's father needed me. Cooperate with him to transport goods to all parts of the world."
"Uncle Andy, the coffee is ready, come and taste it!"
"Well, let me taste the coffee that my little Lisa made!"
Uncle Andy picked up the coffee cup, took a sip gently, and then let the fragrant coffee completely penetrate into his mouth. When the aroma of the coffee completely stimulated the taste buds, he slowly swallowed it, and finally took a long sigh of relief. After taking a sip, he praised with an expression of enjoyment: "Good coffee, good taste, good taste! Thank you, Guan, I like your coffee."
"As long as Uncle Andy likes it!"
"Guan, Lisa said you have something to do with me?"
"Yes, Uncle Andy! I really came to Lacheng this time to discuss a business deal with you."
"Oh, you want to talk about cooperation with me? Okay! Tell me, what kind of business it is!" Uncle Andy was obviously aroused by Guan Hao's words.
"Uncle Andy, the so-called business must be a win-win situation for both partners under the premise of relative fairness. Only in this way can it develop sustainably and healthily. Do you think I am right?"
"Yes, I agree with your point of view!"
"Uncle Andy, I come today with sincerity and hope to have a good talk with you."
"Guan, how old are you this year?"
"Uncle Andy, I am turning eighteen this year!"
"Oh my God! You are only eighteen years old! But you give me the impression of a 40-year-old middle-aged man, mature and stable."
"Uncle Andy, it's like this. My family has some properties in City J, and a large amount of cash needs to be deposited in the bank every day, so I want to talk to you about whether I can deposit it in the bank through the MGM Hotel's cashier system. As for the cooperation share, it’s up to you.”
"How much cash flow does your family have every day?" Uncle Andy glanced at Guan Hao, seeming to be alert, and asked inadvertently while tasting the coffee.
"We get about $1 million a day!"
"What kind of business does your family have that brings in so much cash every day?"
Uncle Andy paused for a moment while holding the coffee cup in his hand and asked doubtfully:
"What is your family's relationship with the Red Cross in City J?"
"Uncle Andy, to be honest, my grandfather is the chief rudder of the Red Cross. Of course, in country A, Honghua has long been an enterprise and a group. My grandfather is the chairman of the Red Cross."
"That's easy to explain! One million a day is not too much, my hotel can help you solve it."
"Thank you, Uncle Andy! Just make your request!"
"Young man, I, Andy, always follow principles in doing things. I will not open the door to convenience just because you are Lisa's friend. We will not accept this kind of money laundering in the D scene if you are not very familiar with it, but you
Help me, I owe you a favor, we can take this business."
"Of course, if it's money from the Red Cross Society of City J, then I can agree to it right away."
"Thanks, Uncle Andy!"
"After I retired from Mingzhu, I came to country A to work in China. I dealt with the Red Cross and had a very good impression of the Red Cross. They were friendly, dedicated and well-behaved.
In recent years, among the underground forces in country a, the Red Cross has existed like a humble gentleman. The Red Cross has a good reputation, so I can do the Red Cross’s business.”
"Thank you, Uncle Andy! How will we cooperate with you next?"
"You first set up a logistics and transportation company in Lacheng that travels between City J and Lacheng. As far as I know, the main entry port for goods exported from Country H to Country A by sea is in City J. Various goods manufactured in Country C
Products are constantly pouring from city J to country A across the country, and it is normal for them to also flow into Lacheng. Our hotel buys a lot of high-quality and low-priced products from country C, and many container trucks come in and out of the hotel every day."
"Thank you, Uncle Andy, I understand! Let's arrange the docking now!"
"Of course, if you want to deposit one million cash in the bank every day, you will need a very professional team to operate it. There will be a certain cost involved. Can you understand?"
"Of course, for sure, just tell me how much you need!"
Field D has a rigorous and efficient service system, and you only need to pay a small price, which is nothing to the Red Cross!
Seeing Uncle Andy agreeing to cooperate so readily, Guan Hao was also very excited. He picked up the coffee cup and quickly clinked it with Uncle Andy.
"Uncle Andy, I wish our cooperation goes smoothly. Of course, this is just the beginning of our cooperation."
"Okay, happy cooperation!"
After drinking coffee, Guan Hao stood up to say goodbye. He knew that Uncle Andy was very busy and it was not easy to spare precious time in the morning to meet him. He could not take up too much of his time.
Before leaving, Guan Hao said to Uncle Andy with a smile:
"Uncle Andy, you like collecting antique guns, right? I have a batch of red-haired domestic flintlock guns from the 17th century. If you have a chance, please help me take a look!"
"Oh my God! Are you serious about locking you up? Where are those guns? I want to see them right away!"
"Dear Uncle Andy, what I said is true. These guns are currently in country C. I will ask someone to send one to you first, but it will take a certain amount of time."
