Xu Yun and Lin Ge rushed back to New York. When the meat shield saw them, he was very excited. But what puzzled him was that the two of them drove an armed escort vehicle.
Lin Ge, of course, didn't tell him the reason. The matter of transporting gold was absolutely confidential.
"Boss, you're finally here. We don't have anyone to contact other than Courtney," the meat shield said. "I have a lot of connections in New York, but no one dares to offend Baldwin."
Lin Ge frowned. Baldwin was really arrogant.
"It's been hard on you these past few days," Lin Ge said. "Courtney didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"
"He didn't make things difficult for me, but he did threaten Hu Ada, a powerful Chinese mafia member in New York, right in front of me. He used Hu Ada's family as leverage, and in the end, Hu Ada gave in," the meat shield said. "I was sitting right next to him the whole time."
Xu Yun smiled. "He deliberately chose a time when you were there."
"Why would he do that?" the meat shield didn't understand. "There's no need for that, right? He didn't choose to kill someone when I was there. "
"Of course he wouldn't choose to kill someone when you were there. That's a slap in the face, not a warning." Xu Yun: "He chose to threaten Hu Ada when you were there. That's a warning. He's warning you that you don't need to ask anyone else. It's useless."
The meat shield nodded. He believed that.
"There's one thing you need to be clear about." Xu Yun said, "Now you've been fooled by him. Courtney only has one goal in mind, and that's it. As long as you're scared, you'll tell us to stop doing useless work. No one in New York will dare to cooperate with us. We'll lose our lives if we cooperate. "
"That's what Courtney meant!" The meat shield sighed helplessly. "And it's really impossible for us to find anyone else to cooperate with."
Lin Ge waved his hand. "More money!"
The meat shield was stunned. More money?
This was the first time he'd heard someone ask for more money! Usually, the party helping to launder money would ask for more money, while the party paying would ask for a lower commission ratio.
"Mr. Carlos, what do you mean? More money? Increase the commission rate? "The tank looked at Lin Ge in shock.
Lin Ge nodded. "That's right. Increase the commission ratio. It's 10% now, right? I'll double it! 20%! Spread the news and ask your connections in New York to spread the news. I'd like to see if no one is willing to make such a large sum of money! "
"Boss! Based on our current estimation, the amount of assets that you want to transfer is close to 3 billion USD. 20% of it is 60 million USD! "The tank's eyes turned red as he spoke.
What did 60 million USD mean?
That was a huge sum of money. Even the most famous star in the NBA would not be able to get that much after deducting taxes!
"Yes, 20%." Lin Ge said. "Spread the news now and ask all your connections to spread the news. Continue to look for partners for me!"
The tank swallowed his saliva. The temptation of such a large sum of money was too tempting. He would never be able to earn so much money in his lifetime.
If he had the ability to earn 60 million USD, he would do it, even if it meant risking his life.
Unfortunately, he did not have the ability now. Even if he risked his life, he would not be able to earn that much money.
"I don't believe that this matter will not attract the attention of New York." Lin Ge said, "Meat shield, this is good for you too. Now, you'll be famous in the New York circle."
Although the tank did not say anything, he knew that he would become the talk of New York within a day. This would be very beneficial for him in the future.
In this day and age, people in the entertainment circle were not the only ones who needed exposure and fame. People in the mafia circle also needed exposure.
After the exposure increased, they would be able to do things with face and have the right to speak.
If they did not have the right to speak, they would be easily bullied.
"I understand. I will do as the boss says." The tank nodded and immediately went to arrange this matter.
Xu Yun and Lin Ge had a day of leisure in New York. Since they were free, they naturally wanted to take a look around. If they did not go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, it would be a waste of time.
Although it was not the first time Xu Yun and Lin Ge came to the United States, they did not have the time to visit the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
"Someone said that New York must come to the Metropolitan Museum of Art." Xu Yun smiled. "There are three major art museums in the world. The British Museum in London, the Louvre in Paris, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York."
Lin Ge sighed. "We are lucky to have time to come here."
This museum was so small that even the souvenirs were very exquisite. Xu Yun and Lin Ge could not help but buy a few.
Although it was the first time Xu Yun and Lin Ge came to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, they felt a sense of familiarity. This was because this place appeared more in movies and TV dramas. The entrance of the Metropolitan Museum of Art often appeared in TV dramas.
After visiting the museum, they naturally had to go to Times Square. This place was full of advertising signs. One could imagine how much attention this place had in the world. Of course, the scenery of Times Square at night was even more dazzling. Those super-large advertising billboards made Times Square bright and dazzling. Experiencing the real city that never sleeps, no matter how late it was, there were still many people here.
There were also Broadway operas, the Empire State Building, Wall Street, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park …
After visiting all these places, they really did not have a minute of free time for the whole day.
When Xu Yun and Lin Ge returned to the hotel after eating, it was already night time. The meat shield was already waiting for them at the hotel.
As soon as the meat shield saw Xu Yun and Lin Ge, he rushed forward. "Mr. Carlos, I have already spread the news. Now many people are spreading the news. I believe there will definitely be a reaction tomorrow."
"Very good. You have worked hard. Rest early. If there is news tomorrow, contact me immediately. " Lin Ge said, "It's getting late. I am really tired. Even if someone wants to talk to me about cooperation today, I don't have the energy."
"Then, boss, rest early." The meat shield said, "If there is news, I will inform you immediately. I believe it will be very fast."
"Well, this is New York after all." Lin Ge said, "I also believe that this news will spread throughout the streets of New York overnight. Regardless of whether they have the strength or not, they will all be shocked by this. "
The meat shield nodded. "Of course. The commission price has been doubled. This is something that has never been heard of in the history of money laundering."
"This is the effect I want! Meat shield, you can be considered to have followed me to start a new era. " Lin Ge said indifferently, "I will not treat you unfairly. Do your job well and I will let you become a member of the upper class in New York."
The meat shield smiled and repeatedly said yes.
But in reality, the meat shield did not believe it.
For the meat shield, he was very clear about his position.
A bodyguard was a bodyguard. Moreover, he was different from ordinary bodyguards. He could get a high salary as a bodyguard. This was already very impressive.
Wanting to become a member of the upper class in New York? What a joke! This was where Wall Street was located! How many rich people were there? Any boss on Wall Street was rich. The money they could make with a flick of their fingers was enough for the meat shield to earn for a lifetime.
He did not come to New York with the hope that he could become a member of the upper class.
He came to New York with the hope that he could establish himself and survive. It would be good if he could have a certain reputation on the streets. What upper class? He did not even dare to think about it.
"If there is no news tomorrow morning, you don't need to worry." Xu Yun reminded the meat shield. "After all, this situation will arouse suspicion. If it is too difficult or too 'easy' to make money, people will stop. This is definitely a normal phenomenon."
The meat shield shook his head and insisted. "No, it won't. The temptation of such a large sum of money is really too big for these greedy people in New York."
