There are women who bring fresh seafood, and there are women who bring the smell of seafood.
Most of them wear wrap-around short skirts, which show off their beautiful figures. Most of them are no more than 23 years old. No matter how old they are, they tend to look older.
David Leung and Jonah were dazzled.
The former is fine, the latter is a simple brother, and probably has no trace of meat at all except for his wife who died young.
"Luke, look at the guy in the halter top." David Liang pointed quietly into the distance.
At a glance, Jonah saw that 9 out of 10 were backless, 8 out of 9 were waistless, and some even had their buttocks looming out.
He was confused, "Which one?"
"That... woman who kept peeking at Mr. Huan and the boss, alas, she walked over with a wine glass in her hand."
"She's a new Latina supermodel. She's all over the billboards these days."
Jonah's information was lagging behind and he didn't know any famous models, but when he found his target, he was really shocked. However, he was too young and similar to Patricia, which gave him the heart of a gentleman who would not look at anything inappropriate.
David Liang noticed his strange behavior and joked: "Don't be embarrassed. In this kind of situation, if you don't play, you are not gregarious."
Just talking.
Two slim women came and sat on the sofa, their soft bodies squeezed between them, "Want to drink together?"
Jonah swallowed hard, his face turned red, but when the wine glass was brought to his mouth, he drank it... and then he let himself go.
It is not easy for bad people to learn well.
If a good person wants to become bad, it's too easy.
Fortunately, Patricia wasn't there. She didn't like this kind of situation. She watched TV alone in the side hall in silence, and no one dared to disturb her.
Not long after.
Juan's men came to heat up the atmosphere and acted as DJs on the music stage set up in the villa hall.
On the side were several bodyguards in suits and leather shoes. They actually took out four password boxes. After opening them, countless green banknotes appeared. Following the music, they sprinkled them down the dance floor, attracting the attention of all the warblers. A group of people exclaimed like a wave.
This is the real gold-selling cave.
But this amount of money is nothing to the Cayero Group. They have a lot of money that cannot be laundered and landed, but they can buy these women's fanatical flattery and find exclusive purchasing power.
After a moment of madness.
Zhou Li'an and Juan, who was in a wheelchair, left the hall.
The women in the scene seemed a little disappointed, but the atmosphere was not diminished. Since Juan's cronies came to kiss her, the women were all immersed in the entertainment.
In the side hall, there were only Zhou Li'an, Juan, and his cronies pushing him.
In addition, there is also Patricia who is watching TV silently. There is no need to avoid it.
As soon as the door was closed, the restlessness outside was instantly cut off.
They talked about business.
Juan is a man who knows how to do business. He first asked his men to bring a few cash lock boxes, "My dear brother, here is 5 million knives, which is the total price of today's batch of gold."
He didn't say it explicitly, but Zhou Li'an knew it well and it was a sign of goodwill.
The total weight of today's batch of gold is about 77 kilograms, about 2,700 ounces, and the total price is only 4.8 million U.S. dollars. However, the river gold produced has not been smelted, and the purity is at most about 90%, so the price still needs to be discounted.
But Juan took out 5 million at once without counting the small profits.
But even so, Juan would never suffer a loss. His money was not clean, but it was easy to launder the gold and land it ashore. If you calculate the interest rate of the lizard money, he actually made a profit.
However, Zhou Li'an shook his head, pushed the cash box away, and said seriously: "Huan, there is no need to be so polite between you and me. We Chinese have a saying, 'No fight, no acquaintance.' This batch of gold is
How about my apology?"
One of the legs is almost useless. Even if the operation is successful, there will be some sequelae.
Human relationships are nothing more than coming and going.
After hearing this, Juan was secretly happy.
Not for money, just because I feel like my face has been saved.
As of now, both of them are no longer pushy and humble.
Huan said: "Then the next cooperation..."
Zhou Li'an said: "You and I both know the general framework. On the surface, there must be a mine as a cover. Whether it is a waste mine or a rich ore that can be produced, the Cayero Group is responsible for the operation and care."
Juan nodded solemnly. He understood the truth. Dozens or hundreds of kilograms of gold were simply consumed after changing hands. If hundreds of tons of gold were involved, there must be a provenance.
Of course he was also curious about where this large amount of gold came from, but he would never ask more about such a thing.
When it comes to secrets, getting to the bottom of it will only ruin the business.
Just like they sell smoking food, do they still have to tell buyers where my goods are grown and where they are not produced?
Zhou Li'an continued: "The next step is to establish a new company as a three-party joint venture. I, Cayero Group and the government will jointly hold shares. I will ask David Liang to come forward to resolve the matter of cooperation with the government and put it in black and white in the contract..."
"Professional matters are left to professionals to resolve, and we only need to sit in the background."
Juan nodded in approval. They are reckless men who can kill people, and the company will hire professionals for management. For example, Cayero Group is now under the jurisdiction of the mining affairs. They never interfere and only need to check the accounts.
However, the sovereignty of the so-called tripartite cooperation actually lies with Zhou Li'an.
Juan knew very well that the gold mine originated in Zhou Dynasty, so Cayero and the government were just working for him.
Are you talking about the famous Cayero Group being subordinated to others?
Everything must be based on profit first.
Zhou Li'an then got to the point: "Then the most critical item is how to distribute the shares held by the three parties."
Juan suppressed his restlessness, did not take the initiative to speak, and pretended to listen obediently.
Zhou Li'an also knows that this is all superficial.
If the interests do not meet their psychological expectations, troubles will naturally occur. In the early stage, they did not dare to question it, but what about the future?
The Cayero Group is full, do you think they will turn their backs and want to replace them? Find ways to explore the golden channels in their hands.
Of course, it all depends on people.
Let’s not talk about how to win over the Cayero Group, but just say that they want to fall out. Do you need to be afraid of Zhou Li’an, who is a loser?
One day, just ask Cayero and Juan to travel through time.
Once Cayero and Juan die, the power structure of this vertical and unified gang will collapse in an instant. All parties will encroach on it, and the people below will gain more power and create chaos.
By that time, his subordinates should also have cultivated enough power. Whether it is replacing the Cayero Group or directly cooperating with the government, it will no longer be a problem.
Furthermore, the purpose of selling gold is not to make money.
"I take 60%, and the remaining 40% is divided between Caiello and the officials."
Dong Dong.
Juan's heart beat dully and wildly twice.
He originally thought that he would be able to get 1 achievement. After all, the source of goods belongs to others, and they are at best thugs.
But now that 40% is thrown away, even if it is divided equally with the official government, it will still be half and half, with each taking 20%.
The profit from 20 tons of gold is all for nothing.
He finally lost his composure and looked at Zhou Li'an with a bit of seriousness and respect, "Mr. Zhou, are you telling the truth? Should we share 40% of the shares equally?"
Zhou Li'an nodded: "You are not fat if you live alone. Since I am using the Cayero Group as a cover, how can I not give you enough profits? In addition, the official is only accompanying you and adding a layer of safety protection to our cooperation..."
"Juan, only you and I are truly our own!"
"Of course, I didn't give this profit for nothing." Zhou Li'an will never portray himself as a person who takes advantage of others and squanders wealth.
There is no such thing as a pie in the sky, so why should we give up this huge benefit to the Cayero Group?
Even if Zhou Li'an originally intended to send money to clear the way, he couldn't say that.
When Juan heard this, he knew the drama was coming.
Zhou Li'an said: "I hope to support the Cayero Group to rise to the top, and use this batch of gold as starting capital to establish a large-scale commercial group, with me as the main body and the Cayero Group as the supplement, covering heavy industry, construction, agriculture, and manufacturing.
and other industries.”
"Once the new group is established, the Cayero Group will no longer need to do those food-sucking businesses and will truly become a business tycoon and stand in the sun."
"On the other hand, Juan... Cayero Group has received massive funds and basic industrial blessings, why can't it rectify the underground world?"
"The various gang groups are fighting against each other. In the final analysis, this is an internal consumption of resources. When one day the Cayero Group will rectify this chaotic environment..."
"My dear friend, you are no longer the leader of a gang that everyone wants to kill, but a great man and a legend. Don't you want to make some changes for your compatriots and your country?"
After a few words.
Juan was stunned.
And several of his men behind him were also in a daze.
The amount of information contained in Zhou Li'an's words is too huge. He created a basic industrial group across multiple industries, rectified chaos, improved the living environment... and became a legend.
What is he going to do?
Is he going to be the commander-in-chief?
Oh, no, Zhou is just an Asian, a Chinese.
Even if he does all this, he still won't be able to rise to power. His identity and race dictate that he can only exist behind the scenes.
Thinking about it this way, the answer seems to appear on the paper.
He wanted to push Juan to ascend to power and achieve great things.
If you follow this logic...
Where did those 100 tons of gold come from?
Conjured out of thin air?
And Zhou Li'an is of Chinese descent...
Holy Virgin Mary.
He, he, he is...
Huan's body was shaken, and he suddenly came back to his senses. He looked at the person in front of him in disbelief. Compared with the respect and seriousness before, now he was even more anxious and fearful——
"Zhou, Mr. Zhou."
"You, who are you?"
As soon as Zhou Li'an saw his reaction, he knew...that his good brother had figured it out.
His smile disappeared, and it turned into an expression of incomprehension when facing the people of Balance. This expression no longer needed to be acted, it was simply his true character——
"My good brother, you should have guessed it, right?"
"..." Juan trembled all over, and subconsciously turned around to look at several of his subordinates, and immediately shouted angrily, "You all, get out of here!"
Several of his subordinates also looked frightened, and some even staggered after starting and almost fell down.
When only Zhou Li'an, Juan and Patricia were left.
Juan held on to the wheel of his wheelchair and moved closer. He hesitated for a long time and finally said: "Mr. Zhou, if you come to see me... will the CIA know about it? They will never allow you to go behind your back... Well, you know
What do I mean?"
Zhou Li'an remained calm, picked up the whiskey on the table, poured the bottom of the glasses for the two of them, and gave it to Juan.
Juan drank it all in one gulp and suppressed the fear in his heart.
At this time, I heard Zhou Li'an say: "Now, we are just business partners... Don't think too much about other things. At least for now, you are not qualified!"
Juan gasped...
He understood.
I have not been tested yet, and I am still in the screening stage!!
If it is as he guessed, then he will not be the only candidate in the screening stage.
Just like the synthesis of smoked food, only after repeated purification and refinement by professional chefs can the final product be released into the market.
This whole thing is so scary to think about!!
Zhou Li'an watched his expression change and knew that the plot was almost finished. He finished the work and poured drinks for the two of them. He touched it lightly and said, "At least for this 100-ton gold cooperation, we will definitely get along very happily. If it can continue in the future,
Keep working together..."
"It's not impossible to think of 100 tons or 200 tons of gold."
"..."
At this moment, Juan was speechless.
…
The next day.
Zhou Li'an and others said goodbye.
Juan originally wanted to take them to the private airport closest to his hiding spot and take a fixed-wing plane back to Juarez.
However, Zhou Li'an declined politely, "Our car is still in the mine in Ocampo, just take us back to where we came from!"
When Juan heard this, he did not dare to say anything.
Just think that Zhou Li'an needs to protect his whereabouts and not let certain forces become suspicious. After all, he has an important mission.
Before leaving, Zhou Li'an said something more, "Huan, don't have such a big psychological burden. As I said yesterday, it's just a business cooperation now. I won't cause you any trouble, so..."
Juan suddenly became excited and said: "Mr. Zhou, I swear, I will never cause you any trouble! We are just business cooperation, we are friends, the closest friends!"
Zhou Li'an smiled with satisfaction.
It’s not a good idea if the play is over, lest Juan be too frightened, and if he contacts the CIA and other relevant departments to report it, it will be a lot of fun.
But now, the scale is just right.
Juan only thought that it was still the screening period, and in order to earn this large amount of money, he would not be able to go back on his word.
In the future, 100 tons of gold will be produced one after another...
Being bound by interests, he couldn't help but rebel.
Anyway, everything is fictitious, and Zhou Li'an is not afraid of attracting the attention of relevant departments. After the group opens and gradually touches some heavy industrial projects, it will inevitably attract the attention of intelligence organizations.
But as long as he behaves harmlessly and is supported by the army cultivated by the Cayero Group, there is nothing others can do to him. At most, it will be an assassination attempt...
But when the time comes, it’s hard to tell who will kill whom.
take off.
Juan sat in a wheelchair and kept waving.
After the helicopter was far away, he said to his confidant behind him: "Salvador, is the matter settled?"
Salvador was his nephew. When he came to power in the Cayero Group, he took him over and trained him as his confidant.
The young man nodded fiercely and said: "Everyone who heard you talking to Mr. Zhou last night was silenced. Only the dead can keep secrets. This is what you have always taught me, Uncle Juan!!"
"Moreover, regarding this matter, I checked some information about that Eastern country on the Internet..."
"I heard that there is an organization over there like CIA and FBI, called Dragon Group!!"
"This organization is just like what you described. Each member has a special function. Some can breathe fire, some can spray water, and some can become invisible... You said that Mr. Zhou can take objects out of thin air!"
"I translated and compiled some Internet rumors there. It is said that a big event happened in 1999..."
"So, Uncle Juan, do you really want to be Mr. Zhou's person? I'm worried that this will be very dangerous, far more dangerous than us selling smoking food!!"
When Juan heard the news, he was shocked again.
Dragon/.Group?
People with special abilities...
The big story of 1999?
Hiss!!
If it is true as Salvador said, if he wants to quit now, it may be too late!!
Juan suddenly said, "Salvador!!"
The young man lowered his head and whispered: "Uncle Juan."
Juan: "These things are going to rot in your stomach! From now on, if there are only two of us, you can call me...'Comrade Juan'!!"
"I may have to get into the role as soon as possible. I can't let Mr. Zhou down!!"
Salvador also gasped, looked around to make sure the guards were still far away, and then whispered: "I know, Comrade Juan!"
"Well, push me back to my room to rest, Comrade Salvador, and contact Cayero by the way. Don't tell him about Mr. Zhou's situation for the time being. I will give him a surprise for my father-in-law in the future!!
The Cayero Group will leave a mark in the modern history of Mexico!!"
