Xu Yun and Lin Ge drove the car directly to the bank. As they had already made an appointment, the bank's VIP account manager was already waiting outside.
As soon as Lin Ge got out of the car, the bank's VIP account manager, James, quickly came forward and grabbed Lin Ge's hand. "Mr. Lin Ge, long time no see. You're still so energetic! Hahaha, come on, let's have a cup of coffee first before we talk! "
"No need for coffee, I'm tight on time," Lin Ge waved his hand. "Let's get down to business. I still have other things to do."
"Mr. Carlos, if you're not satisfied with our service, please feel free to ask … Hahaha … You suddenly want to withdraw cash, this is …" James felt a headache coming on. "We're really sorry for doing something that you're not satisfied with."
"This has nothing to do with you. I just don't believe in USD anymore," Lin Ge said. "Besides, I don't want USD. I want to use my USD to exchange for gold."
James smiled awkwardly. It was better to take their USD than their gold!
"How much is it now? One thousand four hundred and fifty USD per ounce. " Lin Ge said, "Then I have 270 million USD in my account. Can you calculate how much gold that is?"
"This is …" James quickly took out a calculator.
"It's 186,206.8965 ounces." Lin Ge knew very well that Americans were bad at math. They were almost at the elementary school level. "It's about 5.27 tons. You can prepare the gold for me."
James was dumbfounded. Exchanging five tons of gold in one go, even the bank would have a headache! The biggest gold bar in their bank was only 400 ounces. This was a total of 465 and a half dollars!
No wonder they drove such a super armed escort car.
This kind of escort car usually had eight people in it. In addition to cash, there was no problem with carrying weight. Five tons of gold could easily be taken away.
"Mr. Carlos, shouldn't we discuss this further? Perhaps we have a better idea …" James said. "Yes. You're right.
"What I want is gold. Why are you discussing it with me?" Lin Ge said, "Is it that I can't use my own money to exchange for gold in your bank? Then why are you still opening a bank? Are you crazy? "
Of course, it wasn't that James didn't want him to exchange for gold. Of course, he was willing to do so. He just didn't want to lose such a big customer. Now, Carlos gave him the feeling that he was going to leave their bank and not play with them anymore.
This was what Jaime was worried about.
"Hurry up, this is not a small project!" Lin Ge didn't give Jamu a chance to continue speaking. He immediately signaled Jamu to take him to the VIP's safe room to handle the business.
Xu Yun stayed by the car and waited. He looked around and observed the surroundings. The United States was not as safe as Hua Xia. No one dared to rob a bank in Hua Xia. First, the punishment was heavy. Second, there were no advanced weapons.
The United States was different. The people who robbed banks were all equipped with advanced weapons. Moreover, the United States emphasized "human rights." As long as they weren't killed on the spot, even if they failed, they wouldn't be sentenced to death.
This was the most ridiculous thing about the United States. There were people dying on the streets every day, but it was still so difficult to sentence them to death.
He really didn't understand how those bastards who didn't treat other people's lives like animals still had the face to ask for their "human rights." Some criminals weren't even human. They were worse than animals. Why would they talk about human rights if they weren't human?
Anyway, the country was like this. There were pros and cons.
Because of this, Xu Yun didn't dare to relax. Who knew if a car would suddenly pop out of nowhere and a few idiots wearing stockings would jump out to rob the bank?
Xu Yun had seen news about bank robberies in New York before. It was said that there was a bank robber who had been robbing banks in Queens and Manhattan. He had succeeded more than 30 times and returned empty-handed eight times.
This guy was a repeat offender who had set a new record in New York City's police history!
Moreover, this criminal wasn't as fierce and burly as people imagined. It was said that when he was arrested, the police broke in with heavy equipment. The criminal was lying lazily on the sofa, looking at the police who were like they were facing a great enemy with sleepy eyes. He didn't have any intention of resisting.
The criminal was a typical heroin addict. He was in and out of prison as an adult, but he wasn't famous. The crimes he had committed before were all minor crimes related to drug abuse.
The real reason for his big business of robbing banks was very simple — to raise money to buy drugs.
Some of the bank robbers in the United States weren't like what people imagined in the movies. They really came with a car full of people armed with advanced weapons. Most of them were lone wolves!
Every time these people robbed banks, they liked to wear a baseball cap of the Mets, long-sleeved shirts, and sunglasses to cover their eyes. They were a typical New York hipster.
Moreover, the way they robbed banks was very civilized. They didn't yell or scream for fear of scaring the innocent customers.
In the words of these criminals, robbing a bank was no different from withdrawing money from a bank. They just had to pass a note to the bank staff and state their purpose of visit! Only in very rare situations would they show their guns as a show of force. After they succeeded, they wouldn't cause any trouble for others and would leave as soon as possible. Everything was done.
The criminal was a fixed serial robber in the area where he committed the crimes. He had been at large for many years before being arrested. This kind of news also reflected the incompetence of the United States Empire's police.
Moreover, there were hundreds of bank robberies in New York every year. On average, there was a bank robbery every day. In such a big city, this kind of situation was really hard to understand. Moreover, this kind of situation only increased every year.
Many of the brothers on the United States Empire's highways knew that New York's banks were the easiest to rob in the world.
Once this kind of thing spread, there were many people who wanted to make a fortune doing this kind of thing. Thus, New York gathered a lot of idiots who wanted to rob banks. Some people succeeded, some people were too stupid to succeed. Anyway, this kind of thing had become a common thing for New York's banks.
Just as Xu Yun was vigilant, a guy wearing a baseball cap and sunglasses strolled around the entrance of the bank.
This kind of person usually didn't have anything to do. Maybe he was impulsive and wanted to rob a bank for fun? Then he would directly rob it …
This was very likely to happen. After all, the United States Empire was very particular about human rights. Murder and arson wouldn't be sentenced to death. It was just robbing a bank, so it didn't matter.
Xu Yun looked at the strolling guy vigilantly. He found that there seemed to be something bulging behind the guy's waist. Basically, he could confirm that it was a gun.
He reckoned that this guy really wanted to do something.
Now that he hadn't done anything, Xu Yun definitely couldn't do anything. If he went over to warn him, he might be accused of looking for trouble.
At this time, Lin Ge had already followed James to his own exclusive business VIP room. This was because big clients liked to do things quietly, like to keep things confidential, and didn't like to be disturbed by anyone.
This was also good for Lin Ge. At least he could take his time to test the fingerprints.
About ten minutes later, the strolling guy finally couldn't take it anymore. He suddenly pulled out the gun hidden behind his waist and directly rushed into the bank's lobby!
Xu Yun could hear the guy shouting through the door, "Don't move! Take out all the money! "
At a glance, it was obvious that he was a rookie. A skilled criminal wouldn't do such a stupid thing. Sure enough, the idiot's shouting caused chaos, and two security guards directly pounced on him! The farce only lasted for a few seconds before it ended.
In fact, there were many bank robberies in the United States Empire because the banks in the United States Empire had always flaunted the principle of customer service. They removed the iron bars on the counters, removed the armed guards, and extended the business hours. These were the important reasons why criminals frequently patronized the banks.
In recent years, the United States Empire had also slowly removed many open counters. This wasn't to disrespect the customers. In fact, it was a kind of self-protection. Otherwise, it would be so boring to be robbed every day. Who would still be in the banking industry?
