Chapter 604 Rename(1/2)
At night, I caught this kid again, how could those Mafia let go easily?
"Sir, are you afraid to fight?" The casino foreman stopped Gu Ting and used a provocation.
Young people must be full of energy. What the most feared thing is to be agitated. Even Luo Lie, who was beside him, was quite dissatisfied after hearing the casino foreman's words. He secretly hoped that Gu Ting would change his mind and go inside to fight the so-called master. At worst, he would just lose some money.
However, Gu Ting had two big eyes, nodded seriously, and said, "You are right, I really don't dare to face the challenge."
The casino boss was stunned.
Luo Lie couldn't help but be stunned. He never expected that Gu Ting would admit his timidity. According to normal logic, even if he didn't dare to respond in his heart, he should have responded with a few tough words verbally. Gu Ting did not give Luo Li a chance to speak. Before he finished speaking, his hands had already exerted force, and his feet had already been covered with oil.
"Didn't you say that you can win him by competing with that expert?" After leaving the casino, Gu Ting talked and laughed, but Luo Lie felt a little bit confused. The more he thought about it, he felt a little frustrated, so he said, "Let's lose to him first, and wait until you get familiar with his routine, and then win back. Why do you want to escape?"
Gu Ting stopped, took a look of a mature look, and said earnestly: "Young master, you are still too simple. If we go in tonight, we will probably lose only a pair of shorts." Somehow, Gu Ting said, and two red blushed on his cheeks. "Forget it, I can't explain it clearly to you. Anyway, Xiao Ting'er has given up the idea of competing with that master. Xiao Tinger vows that he will never come to play in this casino again."
Luo Lie was confused and wanted to understand, but Gu Ting had already run to the amusement park.
Coincidentally, the amusement park has been closed.
Gu Ting, who could face the excitement of the casino foreman, was so aggrieved that he was so aggrieved that he pouted, and stomped his feet and shouted: "This cruise ship is a liar! It closed so early, Xiao Ting'er will never take the cruise ship again!"
Luo Lie came to Gu Ting, touched Gu Ting's bald head, and comforted him: "It's almost nine o'clock, and it's still late. Let's go back and rest first, and come and play tomorrow."
Gu Ting looked up at Luo Lie with his face and said aggrievedly: "Can you play with me tomorrow?"
Cunci was to appease Gu Ting. Luo Lie didn't think much about it and replied casually: "Yes, of course! Isn't there anything else to do on the boat?"
Gu Ting still looked up at Luo Lie and said, "Then you can't just watch outside, come in and play with me."
Luo Lie couldn't help but look at the amusement events in the playground and couldn't help laughing. Carousels, pirate ships, tanks and trains... They are all games that only children are passionate about. He, a young man, and a young man, got along with the children. The scene... How embarrassing it would be!
But looking at Gu Ting's expectant eyes, Luo Lie really couldn't bear to let him down, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll come in tomorrow to play with you." He said that, but he was planning to wait until tomorrow to find an excuse to send him away.
But Gu Ting believed in Luo Lie's promise, and a bright smile appeared on his face again.
At the same time, Dong Biao had already packed up in the entrance of Anliang Hall, Jinshan, nearly thousands of miles away, and walked downstairs with two suitcases. Cao Bin was already sitting in the driving seat of a car parked at the entrance of the building.
After putting the two suitcases in the car, Dong Biao greeted Cao Bin and said, "Brother Bin, wait a moment, I'll go upstairs and get the Mauser over."
Cao Bin smiled bitterly and said, "The rifle is too big. Do you want us to be targeted by others?"
Dong Biao hesitated and said, "I can't sleep if I don't bring it with me."
Cao Bin waved his hand and said, "It's up to you. If you bring it, bring the box with the rifle as well. It will be easier to hide it under the back seat of the car."
Dong Biao turned around and after a few minutes, he came to the side of the car with a cigarette in his arms, carried a long suitcase, lifted up the back seat of the car, put the long suitcase, and then returned to the passenger seat, and said, "Brother Bin, why don't I drive it."
Cao Bin replied: "More than 4,700 kilometers, who drives first and who drives later, isn't it the same?" After that, Cao Bin started the car and stepped on the accelerator.
Dong Biao had never fought for Cao Bin, so he had to put the backrest of the passenger seat back behind, then lay on his back and closed his eyes. Cao Bin's driving skills were beyond words. It was more reassuring to be a car driven by Brother Bin than to drive himself. It was not just because of the relief, but more important reason was that Dong Biao had to sleep first. The road was so long and so long, and the two brothers had no plans to stay in a hotel in the middle of the journey. They could only drive one person and rest. When the driver was tired, they could change it.
"Brother Bin, have you brought all the tools for repairing the car?" Dong Biao, who had his eyes closed, asked casually.
Cars are a new thing. Although the design and manufacturing process in recent years have been greatly improved, and the performance and stability of the car have also been greatly improved, it is still common for various failures to occur. While praying for God’s blessing, you must also make the worst plans. Fortunately, Cao Bin and Dong Biao and others can repair cars. As long as the car does not have serious failures, they cannot stop their trip to Miami.
Cao Bin held a cigar and showed his unique skills in striking matches in the wind. After smoking a cigar, Cao Bin replied: "Are you too late to worry about this problem now? Okay, hurry up and take a look. I ran all day and may not last long."
Dong Biao sighed and said, "I can't sleep if I have the heart!"
Cao Bin said: "Are you worried that something was wrong with the car and we couldn't arrive in Miami in time?"
Dong Biao adjusted his lying position, still closing his eyes, and said, "That's right. If that kid is in a normal mind, I wouldn't be very worried, but he really has the same mind as you twenty years ago. He will fight with others as you see an opportunity, and he has no helper. Isn't that dead end?"
Cao Bin turned his head to look at Dong Biao, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Why did you become a mother-in-law when you mention Luo Lie?"
Dong Biao suddenly sat up and looked at Cao Bin and said, "You are not the same? We are two... just two brothers compare to Ji Ba, and one bear is like a hangman. Don't laugh at anyone!"
Miami is the southernmost harbor city in the United States of America. Compared with New York, Miami is not even considered a city, and its size is not even comparable to New York's Chinatown. This is not a rash statement. There must be at least 100,000 Chinese people living in New York, and two-thirds of them live in Chinatown communities. The population of Miami is less than 50,000. Miami's coastal structure is not suitable for being a harbor, so although the geographical conditions are superior, it has always been ignored by the federal government. It is no wonder that after all, looking at the entire United States of America, there are too many places suitable for being a harbor. One more Miami and one less Miami have almost no impact on the entire country.
Sixty years ago, a war broke out between the United States of America and Mexico. The result of the war was that the United States of America eroded one-third of Mexico's territory. A large number of Mexicans either moved south or endured humiliation and remained in the local area and became a sub-class citizen. Over the past sixty years, the economy of the United States of America has made rapid progress with the support of the British Empire, but the Mexican country has always been in poverty and backwardness. A mother is the mother. Many Mexicans cannot bear the poverty and backwardness of their country. They forgot the pain brought to people by the war decades ago, and began to think about how to move to the beautiful and fertile United States of America.
However, although the two countries have already made arbitrage and reconciled, their hostility has not eased. Both sides have deployed heavy troops on the border. Therefore, if they want to smuggle into the United States of America by land, their success rate is extremely low.
The smart Mexican thought of the sea route. After years of attempts, people believed that entering the United States of America through the Miami River was the safest and most convenient way.
At that time, Miami was still deserted. Not to mention the city, there were not even many farm and fishing villages.
Although the land is barren, it cannot cover its wealth. Many hardworking Mexicans never want to leave after setting foot on this land. They worked hard, pioneered and cultivated, and finally exchanged their sweat and tears for the material life they wanted.
In the wave of great immigration, Miami's rich land attracted the attention of Europeans. From then on, Miami has developed little by little and finally looked like a city.
At the same time, Miami has also attracted the attention of many Mexico's opium merchants. Like smuggling, if these opium merchants want to transport opium to the United States of America by land, it is tantamount to seeking death. Therefore, they have set their sights on Miami, the Feng Shui treasure land. First, because the coast of Miami is very suitable for boat mooring, and the other reason is that the federal government has not yet attached importance to the management of Miami, and there are too many loopholes that can be exploited.
In order to occupy this golden passage, these opium merchants sent a large number of members to Miami. After a while, the current situation of the Miami gang being completely ruled by the Mexicans.
The cruise ship finally landed on the only dock in Miami where it can be parked for a thousand-ton ship. Luo Lie took Gu Tingqin off the ship and looked into the distance. He felt lost. "Is this Miami? One floor is a bungalow, two floors are tall buildings, and three floors have to be called a building. How can this be a city? This is clearly a bigger town!" Since he is a rich young master with a lot of money and stupidity, Luo Lie cannot restrain himself and must release his pickiness and stupidity as soon as possible.
Gu Ting is very good at cooperating and replied: "But Master, Miami is located in the southernmost tip of the United States of America. It is like spring all year round, winter is not cold and summer is not hot, which is the most suitable for the master's living habits."
Luo Lie snorted and said, "But this kind of broken place is not suitable for me!"
Qin Gang interrupted, "Young Master, no matter what, we have to stay here first, right?"
Luo Lie looked around, couldn't help but frown and said, "Don't there be a taxi in this broken place?"
Gu Ting quickly explained: "Young Master, here is not as good as New York. There are very few people who can afford to be a car, so most of the cars running on the street are still horse-drawn carriages."
Luo Lie looked around again and said, "But why can't I even see a carriage?"
Gu Ting smiled bitterly and said, "Young Master, we haven't left the dock yet, so of course we can't see the carriage."
Luo Lie's pretending to be stupid seemed a bit too early and a bit too much, but in fact it was not unnecessary. When he discussed with Zhao Daming why Li Xilu came to Miami at the entrance of New York, Zhao Daming judged that Li Xilu must have colluded with a gang in Miami. Luo Lie agreed with Zhao Daming's view, so he must be wary of it. Zhao Daming had sent two brothers to Miami to pursue Li Xilu, but unfortunately left here. Then, there was reason to believe that the local gang that Li Xilu colluded with was already alert.
Under this speculation, the local gang that colluded with Li Xilu would inevitably monitor the station and the dock. Although Luo Lie judged that the other party's surveillance of the station should be tighter, it cannot be ruled out that the dock was not monitored.
After pretending to be stupid, Luo Lie walked out of the dock under the support of Gu Ting and Qin Gang. Sure enough, there were a row of carriages parked on the road outside the dock.
"Go and call the latest and largest carriage over!" Luo Lie patted Gu Ting's bald forehead.
Gu Ting hurriedly ran over and chatted with the coachman. Then he ran back and reported to Luo Liehui: "Young Master, Xiao Tinger told the coachman that we are going to the best hotel in Miami. The coachman recommended that we stay in the Royal Hotel in Catalan, but the distance was a bit far, and the fare was a bit high, and the coachman offered a dollar." Gu Ting's voice was quite large, and he obviously wanted the coachman not far away to hear it. Although the coachman was a Mexican, he could understand a few English words after living in Miami for a long time.
Luo Lie responded: "Is one dollar expensive? Just promise him." Luo Lie's English pronunciation was originally very pure, but at this moment, he deliberately straightened his tongue, making the English pronunciation very stiff and crappy.
Gu Ting waved to the coachman immediately.
After getting in the car, Luo Lie still asked the coachman in his bad English: "Where do you have to go to buy a property in Miami to buy it?"
The coachman's English level was not high at all, and after hearing Luo Lie's poor pronunciation, he couldn't understand it, and his face naturally showed a confused look.
Gu Ting said: "Young Master, just ask less questions. When you arrive at the hotel, it will not be too late for Xiao Tinger to help you find out."
Miami is not big, but the entire city is quite wide. It looks like a twenty or thirty miles along the coastline from one end to another. The carriage walked along the coastline for about half an hour and came to a tall building. As Luo Lie said ironically, this tall building is only six stories high, but it is the most high-end hotel in Miami.
The owner of the hotel comes from Catalonia, Spain. Therefore, the design and layout of the entire hotel is quite Spanish Royal. Although the floors are not high, the interior decoration level is really not low. If a hotel of the same grade is in New York, a room will cost at least seven or eight dollars a night. Even in Kingsoft, the room price will not be lower than five dollars a night. But in Miami, the price of a Catalan Royal Hotel is only three dollars a night.
"Open three rooms, each one of us is so cheap, not having more rooms is a disadvantage." Luo Lie took out a stack of US dollars, and the stupidity of the money was revealed.
Qin Gang said: "Young Master, why not open a suite, you live in the inner room, and Xiao Tinger and I live in the outer room, which saves money and can serve you better, isn't it good?"
Before Luo Lie made a statement, Gu Ting jumped up first: "No, no! You don't listen to your snoring. If you are just next to you, you may be quarreling so much that you can't sleep. I don't dare to live with you."
After staying on the boat for four nights, Qin Gang sat on the bed for four nights, at most half lying down, which was a serious crime. When Gu Ting mentioned this, Qin Gang thought it was the same, so he closed his mouth and stopped arguing.
Luo Lie was quite impatient and said, "What are you two quarrels? The suite is open, and each one is open in one room!" Luo Lieming was pretending to be stupid, but he comforted himself in his heart. Didn't he lose more than 100 yuan in the casino when he was on the boat? Just pretend that the money was not earned back by Xiao Ting'er.
After settling down, Luo Lie took Gu Tingqin to the cafe on the first floor of the hotel. Gu Ting asked everyone where the real estate trading market in Miami was, and intentionally or unintentionally revealed what kind of property he wanted to buy. The area should be large, with a garden in front and a swimming pool in the back, which was less than 500 square meters. The location should be good, you can see the sea by pushing the window, and you can go to the road by going out. It is too far off and too close to the city center. The decoration level of the house doesn't matter, it's best if you don't have any decoration. Anyway, the master has to reorganize it before moving in. As for furniture, it's not a thing, because the master said that except for the Huanghuali material and the furniture of the top craftsmen of the Qing Dynasty, everything else is garbage.
The awesome brags so much, but when Gu Ting brags about these awesomes, his expression was quite serious, which made people feel like they had to believe. This is the level! Luo Lie looked at it from the side and sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he brought this kid. Otherwise, with his Luo Lie's level, he would really not be able to brag such a good awesomeness. As for Qin Gang, it can be ignored.
Every legal and illegal citizen of the United States of America has a dream of making money, and the message Gu Ting spread is a good opportunity to make money. Therefore, people who hear this message immediately take action.
"Do you have a house to sell? I have a big customer..."
"Brother, the opportunity to get rich has come. There is a fool oriental man who said he wanted to buy a property that is no less than 500 square meters, and the selling price can be at least 20% higher than the market price. Hurry up and contact the property!"
"Boss, boss! It's a big business. The villa we developed can sell four buildings in one go. Just build a barrier to surround the four villas, and then open the villa to meet the requirements of that big customer..."
...
Within an afternoon, the news spread throughout Miami.
People who do local business are naturally excited about it. Those who have never encountered local business are also ready to move. They can get thousands of dollars in business with just a commission. Which one can be unmoved by it?
Before Luo Lie had finished drinking a cup of coffee, someone came to chat with him to sell real estate. When Luo Lie had done enough in the cafe and was about to take Gu Ting and Qin Gang to have dinner, more than a dozen people who dreamed of making a fortune were surrounded by him.
"You can't harass my young master like this endlessly." Without Luo Lie speaking, Gu Ting stood up: "Let's do this, tomorrow at 10 o'clock, my young master will pack this cafe, and then you will give you five minutes to introduce your property. After listening to your introduction, my young master will naturally make a decision."
This move was very wonderful, and it stopped the salesmen from continuing to harass Luo Lie. At the same time, it left thoughts for these salesmen, and also produced additional gains. People were suspicious and were reluctant to see others making a profit and suffer losses. When Gu Ting seriously proposed to start a fair and just competition in the cafe at 10 o'clock tomorrow, although the salesmen were not convenient to continue harassing Luo Lie, they were unwilling to leave easily, just because they were afraid that others would take advantage of the loopholes after they left, thus prying away the big financial owner.
So, Luo Lie returned to the room, and there were a lot of people guarding inside and outside the corridor of the room. Luo Lie took Gu Ting and Qin Gang to the restaurant. Outside the restaurant gate, there would be a lot of people standing or unable to sit still to look at Luo Lie. This is equivalent to hiring a lot of bodyguards for him without spending a penny. Even if a certain gang of Jianghu was in love with Luo Lie, he would never have the chance to start.
Luo Lie and the other three finished their meal. With the "accompaniment" of many real estate salesmen, they wandered back and forth along the coastline for several miles and experienced the night scenery of Miami. They were tired of walking and then returned to the hotel to rest. Although Luo Lie's room door was locked, the salesmen still refused to leave easily. Thinking about it, if they left and the door was knocked open by other salesmen, wouldn't they be in great trouble?
It was not until late at night that it was confirmed that the door of the big money owner's room would never be knocked open again, and the salesmen gradually left reluctantly. But the next day, the cafe on the first floor of the hotel had not yet opened, and there was already queue outside.
It starts at ten o'clock and ends at most twelve o'clock. Even if each salesman does not have more than five minutes of presentation time, then in two hours, only twenty salesmen can be given speeches. If anything happens in the middle, the salesman in the 20th may lose the opportunity. Therefore, some smart real estate salesmen got up early, washed up and ate some breakfast, rushed to the outside of the cafe and lined up.
The business in the cafe in the morning was very average. Gu Ting only bought the venue for five dollars. When the whole venue spent less than five dollars, he calculated it as five dollars. When the whole venue spent more than five dollars, he checked the bill based on the actual consumption amount. Luo Lie once again showed his characteristics of being stupid for a lot of money. He invited all the salesmen who were lined up outside the door to sit in the cafe and gave each one a cup of hot coffee.
"It was agreed to start at ten o'clock, so those who are late will think that he has given up automatically." After everyone sat down, Gu Ting stood up and ordered: "Waiter, go and lock the door of your cafe, and no one outside is allowed to put in."
This should be a good thing for the salesman who has entered the cafe. No one should object. But the person with less brains reminded Gu Ting: "This young gentleman, it's only 9:50 now, and it's still ten minutes away from the agreed time at 10 o'clock!"
Before the man finished speaking, he was booed. Gu Ting was even more angry and said, "If you think it is unfair, then please go outside the door and see if you can come in?"
To be continued...
