Mayor Henry got out of the car with his briefcase, straightened his clothes, and said to the driver: "Go back and rest."
"Yes, Mr. Mayor!"
The driver drove away.
When Mayor Henry saw the special car leaving, he picked up his briefcase and spun around in a circle, then pulled his tie, danced and sang softly: "I like disco! Oh oh yeah yeah!"
Swinging into the mansion gate.
Mayor Henry can't be unhappy. Who knew that Shi Zhijian's investment would turn against the wind?
Now, not only did he not lose money, he also doubled his profit!
Shi Zhijian!
You are so great!
You are simply my biological father and my God!
You won the bet! You are better than the stock god! I admire you so much!
"Oh yeah yeah!" Mayor Henry jumped happily.
"Woof woof woof!"
The golden retriever raised at home barked several times when his owner came back.
The owner has been in a bad mood these days after losing money. In the past, the golden retriever would be touched on the forehead by the owner when it came wagging its tail, but these days it has been kicked several times.
The golden retriever has learned to be smart. When he sees his master come back today, he will bark a few times to test the situation and see what his master's reaction will be.
"Oh, dear, little cutie! Come here quickly!" Mayor Henry called to the golden retriever.
The golden retriever was stunned for a moment, then he shrugged his nose and smelled happiness from his owner!
Golden Retriever doesn’t hesitate anymore!
"Woof woof woof!!!"
He yelled and ran quickly to Mayor Henry.
Mayor Henry put down his briefcase, squatted down, put the golden retriever into his arms and stroked its head, "Oh, my dear little cutie, you have worked hard these days!"
The golden retriever let out a "humph" and rubbed hard into its owner's arms.
Henry was playing with the big golden retriever. His wife Jenny saw him coming back and greeted him: "My dear, what happened? You are so happy?"
Due to money loss these days, Mayor Henry and his wife Jenny are very disharmonious both in life and physically. Even if they meet, they don't say a word.
Today, Jenny saw Henry making the golden retriever happy for the first time, with a smile on her face.
"Yes, dear!" Mayor Henry let go of the golden retriever, stood up, walked over, picked up his wife Jenny, spun her around, and then put it down: "I'm so happy! Yes, God!"
Jenny has known some news these days, "Did our stock price go up?"
"Not bad!" Henry said in a disco dance pose to his wife: "Not only has it increased, it has doubled! In other words, the three million we invested has now become six million!"
"Oh yeah!" His wife Jenny happily jumped on Mayor Henry.
"Hahaha!" Henry hugged his wife and laughed.
The golden retriever surrounded the two men and groaned anxiously, but couldn't get in.
"So now, what should we do?"
"How to do it? Of course I will buy you the bag you like, and we are going to have a romantic candlelight dinner at the luxurious restaurant in Los Angeles where we first met?"
"Are we going to Los Angeles? Are we going to travel?"
"Yes, dear! Now that we have money, we can go to Los Angeles, meet those stars, and live a happy life for two!" Mayor Henry said happily.
For so many years, he has been working hard to be re-elected in the New York market and dare not do anything. But now, with six million, of course he wants to be cool!
"I'm so happy, honey!" His wife Jenny hugged Henry and rewarded him with a kiss.
"I'm very happy too!" Mayor Henry was about to kiss back, but was interrupted by the black maid: "I'm sorry, Master! Excuse me, your phone number——"
"Uh, phone?"
Mayor Henry was stunned for a moment. He was so happy that he didn't even hear the phone ring.
"Who's calling?"
"Your aunt!"
"It's her again?" Henry became angry when he remembered the last time he was scolded by his aunt, "I'm going to answer it now! God, it's time for revenge!"
Mayor Henry bid farewell to his wife, rolled up his sleeves, and prepared to give his snobbish aunt a good show on the phone.
His wife Jenny waved her fist at Henry: "Be tough! Show her some color! Let her not think we are so easy to bully!"
"Of course, dear!" Mayor Henry's face was ferocious.
soon--
Henry walked to the phone and took the call. Before he could speak, the other person on the phone said in an exaggerated voice: "Oh God, my little cutie, my favorite Henry, you finally answered the phone——"
"
"Aunt, I--"
"You don't need to tell me, I know it all! It was my fault last time, but I did it to motivate you! Look, isn't the motivation successful now? The money we invested has doubled!"
"But last time you-"
"What happened last time? What else did I do besides motivating you? Don't forget, I am your aunt! I am the person closest to you! Yes, I know all the embarrassing things you did when you were a child, such as you drinking expired milk
, I rushed to school to help you change your pants when you were in class! Also, when you went to the cattle farm to shovel cow dung and ended up getting stuck in the cow dung pile, I was the one who pulled you out! Without me, you would have been finished!"
"Well?"
"Uh what? Is there anything else you want to say?"
"Uh, no more!"
"It's better if you don't have it!" My aunt said on the other end of the phone: "I'm telling you, the main reason I'm calling you this time is to remind you to sell those stocks quickly and put the money into your own pocket. That's money, if it's not just numbers.
! Remember, stop profit! Don’t be too greedy! My one million, oh no, it is two million now, you must prepare it for me! I have already booked a flight ticket to Paris, France, that’s it
I’m going to fly there for a few days to travel - I’m getting older and I don’t have a few days left to live, so I’ll travel around the world while I’m still able to run, do you mind?”
"Uh, I don't mind."
"As long as you don't mind! Remember to take profit and take my money!"
"Okay aunt!"
"I won't say much else! As for you, do you have anything else to say?"
"I, uh-"
"Why, do you really have something to say?"
"Oh no-"
"What is it? Is it there?" my aunt asked anxiously.
Mayor Henry wanted to say that he could not control the investment profit and let her wait for the news, but when the other party urged her, he hurriedly said: "Yes, yes!!!"
"What?" Auntie was obviously angry again.
Henry trembled: "I want to say, Aunt, I love you!"
My aunt was stunned for a moment on the phone: "Hahaha, my little cutie, little snacks, little radish heads, bean sprouts! I love you too! My aunt prays for you day and night, yes, God, no
People love you like me! Remember, two million, bye, little cutie!"
My aunt hung up the phone.
Mayor Henry looked embarrassed as he held the phone!
My wife Jenny came over and asked, "How's it going? What did you say to her?"
Mayor Henry was busy gathering his emotions, put down the phone, and snorted coldly: "I cursed her so much, yes, it almost made her cry! She said that she was a lot older, and the last time she was innocent...
"
"This old lady is really good at making excuses!" Jenny said disdainfully.
Mayor Henry: "Of course I knew, so I exposed her directly and told all the embarrassing things she had done before until she burst into tears!"
"She cried?"
"Yes, I cried miserably!"
Jenny relented: "Should we be more cruel in doing this?"
"Huh! No poison, no husband!" Mayor Henry put on a strong-man attitude.
Jenny looked at her husband with admiration: "But she is your aunt after all - in this way, we can say some nice things when we meet in the future."
"It's all up to you - hey, you women are so soft-hearted!" Mayor Henry snorted again.
After speaking, Mayor Henry pinched his chin: "But there is something very difficult to deal with now -"
"What happened?"
"That old woman, my aunt, wants to take out her two million, how can I have the final say? She asked me to stop the profit, but I don't control the investment. Stop the profit!"
When Jenny heard this, she hurriedly said: "This time I will stand with my aunt! We have already doubled our profit, it is time to stop profiting, we can't be too greedy!"
Mayor Henry spread his hands and smiled bitterly: "I also understand this truth, but - Mr. Shi has the final say in all this!"
"You mean that Hong Kong Shi Zhijian?"
"Yes, it's him! Everything is under his control, he has the final say!"
Jenny was stunned for a moment, then thought about it and suddenly said: "Go find him! Yes, go find him quickly! If you find him, whether you beg him or kneel down, let him sell our share!"
"But I-"
"Nothing, just go quickly--" Jenny pushed her husband out.
"The least you can do is let me change my clothes and take a shower-"
“There’s no time—go!”
…
Minus Five Degrees Bar.
With a creak, the bar door was pushed open, and the obese Director Grant came in, took out a coin from his arms, then tossed the coin in his hand and walked to the coin-operated record player.
Everyone in the bar was talking about the war in the Middle East that broke out in the past few days, about the oil crisis, and that this time those who were short of oil jumped off the building, while on the contrary, those who were long of oil became rich overnight!
Grant listened to the news with his ears pricked up, and his heart was full of secret joy. He wanted to stand up, stand on the table, and announce loudly, telling everyone that the lucky guy who got rich overnight was him! It was Grant!
He finally endured it.
He is a calm person, and his heart can accommodate the sky and the sea!
Don't be surprised if you are favored or humiliated!
Insert coins into the machine!
Make a jingle sound!
The song "Casablanca" ordered by Grant played slowly.
Grant closed his eyes and immersed himself in this old movie along with the music. At this moment, he seemed to be the male lead played by "Humphrey Bogart" in the movie - the spy. No one knew his identity.
People know how great and amazing he is!
Yes, at this moment Director Grant feels that he is very great and amazing! His investment of 1.8 million US dollars has doubled! It is now 3.6 million US dollars! God, what a wonderful number this is!
Of course, all the credit for this belongs to Mr. Shi!
Without Shi Zhijian’s wise investment and his unremitting investment, they would have jumped off the building long ago!
Regarding Shi Zhijian, Director Grant was deeply moved at this moment.
If Shi Zhijian were in front of him, he would definitely kneel down and hold his legs and cry bitterly!
These days have been so difficult!
Woohoo!
No, you can't cry!
Today is a happy day!
Thinking of this, Grant turned his sadness into excitement.
He stood on tiptoes, his fat body as light as a sparrow, embraced the air and began to dance in front of the record player.
Everyone in the bar looked sideways at this idiot.
"What's wrong with him?"
"Are you crazy?"
"Lost in love?"
Grant was immersed in his own world, not caring about what the outside world thought of him, but even with his eyes closed, he could still feel the hot gazes of the drinkers around him.
Grant guessed they were all jealous!
Yes, I am jealous of myself!
In his mind, Grant could no longer suppress his inner feelings, and jumped onto the table unscrupulously, and then bossed these idiot drinkers: "You know, I am a person with a net worth of four million! Anything less than four million is worth nothing.
Kneel down, you damn fellows!"
"How much money do you have? One million? Damn it, why are you standing here? Why don't you kneel down quickly! You damn bastard, how dare you be so arrogant here with one million dollars? I'm four million, four million!"
"
"What, you are standing because you are three million? If it is three million, come and be friends with me. I am three million six hundred thousand, which is more than you!"
"Hahaha, I have money now, who dares to say that I am a poor director? I don't dare to spend it randomly even if I have money! Now I can buy whatever I want and eat whatever I want. Even the honest people above will take it.
I can’t help it, I earned my money from stock trading! Hahaha!”
The drinkers around me looked at me and I looked at you, looking at the fat man in front of me in bewilderment, who was crying and laughing at other times.
How did they know that the fat man in front of them was the chief of the New York Police Department. He had been cautious for the sake of his official position before and did not dare to spend a small amount of money on corruption. But now that the money he invested has doubled, it is equivalent to winning a big prize. In the future, he can directly
Live a free and unrestrained life, no longer need to be so cautious!
Finally the dance song "Casamblanca" ended.
Director Grant also woke up from the fantasy world and wiped away the bitter tears that unintentionally shed with the back of his hand.
At this time——
With a creak, the bar door was pushed open again.
Three people came in from outside. One of them was wearing a black top hat and a black windbreaker, with a pair of vicious triangular eyes and a sharp hooked nose.
When the people in the bar saw the person coming, they immediately fell silent.
"God, why are loan sharks here?"
"I wonder which guy is unlucky enough to be charged for debt?"
When the bar owner saw someone coming, he didn't dare to say hello.
What is more terrifying than "vampires" in this world are these "loan sharks".
Borrowing money from them is often equivalent to handing over your life to them. If you can't pay back the money, you will either lose everything, or be arrested and beaten until you are covered with bruises, and then be forced to jump off the building into the sea——
The hook-nosed man glanced at the bar, and finally walked towards Director Grant, who had just finished dancing and was about to go to the bar to drink a glass of whiskey to rinse his mouth.
"Wow, there's something good to watch!"
"This fat man is going to be in trouble!"
"Dare you owe loan sharks? You're tired of living!"
Everyone in the bar was talking a lot, and even pointing at Grant.
Director Grant felt the oppressive atmosphere in the bar, and at this time he also saw the hooked nose walking towards him.
Grant remembered the last time he was cornered and scared to death, but this time——
Director Grant sneered, he is the director, why are he afraid of these little gangsters?
