Chapter 396 Money First
What does Lao Bai want for a dignified life? This can be seen from his dialogue with Pinkman in the last season, "I'm not here to sell drugs or make money, I want to build a business empire!"
After years of living in poverty, he rediscovered his value through drug production and drug trafficking. Walter, an ordinary chemistry teacher, became the famous drug lord Heisenberg. The high purity of drugs proved his talent in chemistry. The huge amount of money allowed him to realize his value.
After understanding these, the direction to complete this task has been found. Capitalist society is nothing more than money. As long as you help Lao Bai make money, well, it is best to make money through his talent in chemistry.
After more than half a month of preparation, Shen Long chose to enter the world of "Breaking Bad". Still a flash of white light flashed, and Shen Long appeared on the land of the United States. There seemed to be something extra in his pocket. He took it out and opened it. At first glance, he saw a complete set of identification, driver's license, social security number, bank card, and even a resume, which saved him a lot of trouble.
The documents are full of his own photos, and his name is still Shen Long. Judging from his resume, he is a second-generation immigrant with no direct relatives. He did not work well after graduating from college. He makes a living by doing part-time jobs online. There is also a name in his bank card. There is not much money, but this is not a problem for Shen Long.
He walked to the street and wandered around. From time to time, buildings that he had seen in TV series appeared on both sides of the street. It seemed that the system sent him directly to Albuquerque, the capital of New Mexico, where the story of "Breaking Bad" takes place.
Albuquerque is the largest city in New Mexico and ranks 32nd in population in the United States. It is located on the US-Mexico border. Drug trafficking activities are rampant and drug dealers are rampant. In just a few minutes, Shen Long saw many drug dealers.
But Albuquerque is not only home to drug dealers, it also has Sandia National Laboratory, where Lao Bai once worked, and is not far from Los Alamos National Laboratory. In addition, there are numerous local universities and private research institutions. The high-tech industry here is relatively developed.
In addition, New Mexico is the heart of the southwest United States. It has fast and reliable transportation channels to the West Coast, Midwest, East Coast and other markets in the United States. It also has the most productive potash ore in the United States. Raw materials, talents, and transportation conditions are all excellent. , it is indeed a good place for developing the chemical industry.
First determine the current time, then go to see Lao Bai, and then get some money to buy a company in Albuquerque. Shen Long thought for a moment and ducked into the alley next to him. After a while, Shen Long straightened his clothes and walked out of the alley. When he came out, there was a stack of dollar bills in his pocket, and several drug dealers who were knocked unconscious were left in the alley.
"Give me a copy of today's newspaper!" Shen Long walked two streets and bought a newspaper. He opened it and saw that it was full of analysis of the subprime mortgage crisis. Looking at the date on the newspaper, it was now April 2008. month.
It was still early, and he had more than half a year to prepare himself. This was really plenty. Shen Long rented a car and started wandering around Albuquerque at will. This city was not large in size and did not have many high-rise buildings. Shen Long quickly found the school where Lao Bai worked and the car wash shop where he worked part-time.
It was almost time for school to end now, so Shen Long drove the car into the car wash shop to see if he could meet Lao Bai. As a result, he was very lucky. As soon as he entered, he saw Lao Bai coming up to him, "Hello, what can I do for you?" Help?"
"Help me wash the car." Shen Long's car is newly rented, and it can be washed simply. The car will be washed in about ten minutes. Shen Long handed over a five-dollar tip, "Thank you. ."
"Thank you very much!" Generally speaking, a car wash tip of about two dollars is enough, but Shen Long's tip was five dollars, which was a little surprise for Lao Bai.
"The car was washed very clean." Shen Long nodded slightly and took this opportunity to look through Lao Bai's lungs and found that there were signs of tumors in his lungs. However, the situation was not serious. If treated in time, it would still be possible. Can be saved.
"I want to go have a drink. Is there any good place nearby?" Shen Long continued to chat with Lao Bai.
"When you go out from here, turn left, and when you stop at the second intersection, you will see a bar. Their beer is very good, and I often go there." Lao Bai introduced.
"Okay, I'll go over and give it a try." After saying that, Shen Long started the car and came to the bar that Lao Bai mentioned. This bar not only sold wine, but also some local food. He ordered Mexican food. After filling up his stomach with style food, he ordered a beer and drank it slowly, casually chatting with the bar owner about Albuquerque.
After refilling his drink, he saw Lao Bai coming in. Shen Long waved to him, "You're right, the beer in this bar is indeed great! To thank you for your recommendation, I'll buy you a drink."
"Thank you." Lao Bai expressed his thanks again, and then came to sit down next to Shen Long. The bar owner served him his favorite wine without asking him to ask. The two of them had a drink. Lao Bai asked curiously, "Are you coming to Abu?" Traveling to Kuiki?”
"Yes, since I graduated, I have been traveling around the United States and looking for suitable entrepreneurial opportunities. Albuquerque has made me feel very good. Maybe I will stay here," Shen Long said.
"Start a business? Don't young people nowadays like to go to Silicon Valley? It's not easy to start a business in Albuquerque. It requires more capital than in Silicon Valley." In Silicon Valley, as long as you have a computer and a garage, you can start a business, Abu said. Kuuki's IT industry is not developed. The main industries here are electronic and electrical equipment, food and related products, chemical industry, etc. The start-up capital required is much larger than that of the IT industry.
"I'm not interested in the Internet industry." Shen Long has been involved in the previous mission world many times and is really a little tired of it. "On the contrary, I am very interested in the chemical industry. The subprime mortgage crisis caused many companies to go bankrupt and acquisitions It doesn’t seem to cost a chemical industry company much.”
"That's true, but if you want to acquire a relatively promising chemical company, it will cost at least millions of dollars." Lao Bai knew the chemical industry very well. He briefly recalled the recent bankruptcy announcement in the newspaper. Given the accurate figures, if recruitment, equipment purchase, and raw material purchase are included, the amount would be even greater, and the person in front of me does not seem to have such a rich net worth.
"I only have five thousand US dollars now, but I believe I can earn enough start-up capital with these five thousand US dollars soon." Shen Long said with confidence.
