Chapter 18 Sudden Attack
Paul left, and Zhu Yu kept the $61,000.
Now that I have hundreds of thousands of dollars, I can start taking action!
He called John:
"John, I need your help with something."
John originally planned to make a joke with Zhu Yu, but when he heard Zhu Yu speak in such a serious tone, he also said:
"you say."
"Please introduce me to a better private detective. I need to get some information."
"What request?"
"I must be proficient in business and be able to access high-end places. If I am discovered, my existence cannot be exposed."
"Okay. I'll give you a phone number. This person's name is. You can call him later."
Zhu Yu knew that this "stay for a while" was most likely because John wanted to give this person some explanation.
About five minutes later, Zhu Yu received the message from John.
Robert.
Zhu Yu dialed his phone number.
"Hello, I am Zhu Yu."
"Hello, I'm Robert. I heard from John that you want me to collect some information?"
"Yes." Zhu Yu said, "Because you were introduced by John, I trust you. I need you to help me collect a person's information, including his behavior patterns, people he has frequent contact with, who he works for, etc."
"Report the name, occupation, and place of work of the person under investigation."
Zhu Yu said:
"Mark Ivan, a professional lawyer who should serve some wealthy businessmen, once served as the personal lawyer of the wealthy businessman Zhu Dajiang..."
Zhu Yu didn't know much information.
But I think for professionals, they should be able to find out someone’s name and occupation, right?
"Wait a minute, let's take a look... Dear client, the person you are investigating is not a simple person. He has a high reputation in the New York legal community and has saved wills for many wealthy businessmen.
In addition, the people Mark has made friends with are rich and noble, have very extraordinary backgrounds, and have deep connections. It is not easy to investigate him!"
Zhu Yu's scalp was a little numb.
Although he was prepared, after Robert said so much, he felt that he might be facing a huge monster!
"...After hearing so much, are you still checking?"
"...Check it!" Zhu Yu gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "Check it to the end!"
"Okay, please pay thirty thousand US dollars first as a deposit." Robert whistled briskly, "I like this kind of challenging business the most!"
Robert sent the account number, and Zhu Yu sent the money without hesitation.
Thirty thousand US dollars, in the past, would have been out of reach for him.
But today the money earned in one day is almost the same.
Although Zhu Yu knows that he cannot be so lucky every day, isn't the purpose of making money just to take revenge and find out the truth?
After sending the money, although his net worth was reduced a lot, Zhu Yu felt much more at ease.
Next, he called John again.
"Zhu, is there any trouble?" John's tone was rare and serious.
"This time, I hope to introduce me to a second-hand car seller. I want to buy a second-hand pickup truck."
"That's no problem. You should have had a car a long time ago." John quickly sent the second-hand car dealer's information.
With Zhu Yu's current financial resources, it is not impossible to buy a new car.
However, he has to reserve some funds for emergencies.
If it were Paul who had such money and wanted to buy a car, he would definitely buy it at his best.
You can do whatever you want with how much money you have, and even if you have ten yuan, it is common to buy things that cost fifteen yuan.
Shopping with a credit card is a habit and mainstream in this country. Zhu Yu, who saves money for emergencies, is an outlier.
According to the address sent by John, Zhu Yu took a taxi and found that it was a yard the size of a football field, with used cars of various sizes parked there.
The used car lot where Sam, the protagonist of "Transformers" buys Bumblebee, is much smaller than this one.
After entering the parking lot, someone immediately came to greet Zhu Yu.
Zhu Yu said he wanted to take a look.
He went directly to the pickup truck area.
There are large, medium and small pickup trucks. What surprised Zhu Yu was that there were also pickup trucks made in China.
However, there are two raptors that Zhu Yu likes.
To auction off the items in the container, it must be able to be loaded.
Things like the luggage cases at the airport today are accidental. Usually, there are more containers auctioned.
You have to have a car to haul valuable things, and you have to clean up the trash.
A voice sounded from behind:
"Are you the Zhu introduced by Old John?"
Zhu Yu turned his head and saw a skinny white man about fifty years old with gray hair looking at him.
"Yes."
"You like big guys?"
"Of course!" Zhu Yu pointed to a relatively new-looking Raptor and said, "Look, how beautiful he is!"
"Yes." The man nodded, but he pointed to the other car and said, "But I suggest you choose this one. This one is more durable!"
Zhu Yu believed the person introduced by John and went over to look at the car that looked slightly older.
It turned out to be old, but the car body was relatively dirty and could be easily cleaned.
After walking around the car for a while, Zhu Yu happily paid $25,000 and drove away the Raptor, which was only two years old.
It's a small leak.
Back at the container dormitory, Zhu Yu parked the car, fetched water, and planned to clean the car properly so that they could live together.
"Hey! Yellow-skinned boy, have you bought a car?" A sinister voice sounded.
Zhu Yu stood up and found that the person speaking was Todd. Behind him were three young Hispanic men, looking at him sideways.
"It has nothing to do with you." Zhu Yu said expressionlessly, "It's best to leave as soon as possible. I have cameras here. If something happens, you will be in the biggest trouble!"
"Yo! Yo!" Todd ignored Zhu Yu's kindness and said sarcastically:
"Do you really think we are afraid of you? Your 'kung fu' is just gymnastics to scare people!"
He took out a dagger, played with it, and said proudly:
"Okay, let's get down to business now! I heard that you made another profit today. As for me, I am also a reasonable person. Just return my losses and pay 20% interest, which is about fifty thousand US dollars.
,ok?”
Zhu Yu laughed angrily.
This Todd is obviously blackmail!
He sneered and said:
"You are blackmailing!"
"What's wrong with just blackmailing you?" Todd pointed to a few people behind him and said proudly: "Now that I have more people, I have the final say!"
Zhu Yu took two steps back. Todd thought he was scared, so he took two steps forward and pointed a dagger at Zhu Yu:
"Hurry up and pay, otherwise when we take the initiative, you won't lose $50,000!"
Zhu Yu suddenly pulled out a stick from the side, swung it and hit Todd!
It is a folk fighting style, but there is never a fight where you give up your hand and then say your boxing name before taking action!
Strike first to gain the upper hand!
The few people behind saw this and rushed forward to help, but Todd had already been knocked to the ground by Zhu Yu with a stick!
Chapter completed!
