Chapter 211 New Target

21days ago Urban Novels 5
At this time, Li Zaian didn't know that he had become an important member of a big drama. When Mike made this decision, he was still trapped in the villa of Lisseton Seaview Garden, living that leisurely and comfortable but not much freedom.

For three consecutive days, what he could do every day was either watching TV news or having fun with Miss Blanche. He developed everything on this sexy maid.

Although the villa lacks contact with the outside world, it does not prevent the outside news from being transmitted to the inside, such as TV news, newspapers and magazines. As long as Li Zaian wants to read, he can basically see it.

Compared to Sao Paulo, the amount of information in New York can obviously be described by the word "massive". News that many Brazilians will not pay attention to can be found in newspapers published here.

This information seems irrelevant, but in fact, there is huge profit behind each one.

To give a very simple example: When Ms. Nancy Pelosi, who once performed an anti-China ugly drama in Tiananmen Square, accepted the most-favored-nation treatment of the United States' trade with China, was qualified to extend the most-favored-nation treatment of the United States.

The stock market of listed companies involving industries such as textiles and toys has suffered a heavy blow, while foreign trade companies in knowledge-intensive industries such as commercial software have been taking hormones, and their stock prices have been rising continuously. China, which has a population of hundreds of millions and is becoming increasingly open and economically revitalized, is a potential huge market. Many people can see this.

Just from these seemingly insignificant news, Li Zaian also found a promising investment direction, which is the online gambling industry that has always been strictly restricted but has always flourished in the United States.

On the same day that Li Zai'an arrived in New York, the world's first online gambling company, Bo Paradise, was announced to be established in Antigua.

This is an offshore company registered by a British-funded company in Antigua. The one that provides network support services to the company is the US World Communications Corporation

According to media reports, Botian invested only two million US dollars in advance, but it is expected to invest four million US dollars in advertising investment.

Of course, the reason why the media is paying attention to this online gambling company is not based on how much its technical investment, how much advertising investment is. What public opinion really pays attention to is whether it is legal for this company to place advertisements in the United States and open up the market.

Because among the laws and regulations of the United States, there is a "Wireless Communications Act" enacted in 1961, which clearly stipulates that it is strictly prohibited to participate in interstate sports betting by telephone

Unfortunately, online gambling needs to be carried out through a network supported by a telephone line.

Li Zaian won’t care about whether online gambling is legal in the United States. Anyway, he has never done any legal business.

What he really needs to care about is what problems need to be solved if he operates this matter, and what a real online bookmaker can bring to him

He didn't spend too much effort to consider the first thing, and professional issues always have to be left to professionals. After all, Li Zaian positioned himself as an investor, not a worker.

As for the second thing, Li Zaian knows it very clearly. For the online gambling industry, even if it does not consider its huge future market, the role of money laundering alone is enough to be coveted.

This magical land of the United States seems to be full of inclusiveness. The existence of Las Vegas Casino proves that this country does not discriminate against gambling.

But why are you reluctant to give up on online gambling?

The reason is very simple, because this business is difficult to monitor

The reason why Li Zaian is very coveted of the new type of online gambling is not his temporary whim, but his urgent need for his own interests.

The US government has many difficulties in supervising the online gambling industry, which gives people like Li Zaian many loopholes to exploit and becomes a secret channel for money laundering.

Drug cartels like Morio, relying on drug trafficking, illegal pornography, underground gambling, usury loan sharks, etc., will earn a lot of cash income.

However, these sources of income are illegal, which is the so-called black money. It is impossible to deposit these operating income directly into the bank. The black money must be laundered.

The profits of money laundering business in the international market are huge, so it has attracted many international money laundering institutions to secretly participate.

These money laundering businesses adopt a commission system, and the commission ratio is divided into many levels according to the source of black money. Among them, the highest commission ratio is poison funds, with a ratio of ten and six draws

In other words, if the drug trafficking group takes out 10,000 US dollars of black money to launder, the final income can only be 4,000 US dollars. The money laundering agency and the middleman will take away the remaining 6,000.

So, don't look at how majestic the gangs and drug dealers in South America are, in fact, they are all exploited by those money laundering institutions.

What Li Zaian wants to do is to control a safe and reliable money laundering channel, which will allow him to stand upstream of the international drug trafficking industry chain and gain more voice by helping drug trafficking groups in South America launder money

With things that need to be paid attention to, the life of house arrest seems much richer, at least it will not feel so boring anymore. Li Zaian even considered that he could consult some things in this regard through Brent's relationship.

When Brent appeared in the Lissetton Seaview Villa again, it was early in the morning after the third day. Unlike the first time, he did not come alone this time. He was also a middle-aged white man named Thompson. According to Brent's introduction, this person was the manager of Lissetton Seaview Park.

Just this morning, a telephone was installed in Li Zaian's villa. Thompson also arranged a Mark Lincoln sedan and a full-time driver to wait for Li Zaian's instructions at any time.

All of this indicates that Li Zai Amway's house arrest in Seton Seaview Garden has ended. Of course, it also indicates that Mike has fallen into their hands.

But Li Zaian didn't know that Mike was indeed sent to Colombia, but this young man who had completely fallen into madness, died that night - that is, last night, and he smashed his head on the wall of the room

Mike's death made the whereabouts of the copy of the memo a mystery, at least for those who were eager to get it.

This mystery is vicious. It not only makes a large number of people unable to sleep, but also directly destroys Li Zaian's previous efforts to transcend the matter.

For those hiding behind the scenes, the copy of the memo in Mike's hand was not found. Li Zai'an may be related to this or not. These are not very important. What is important is that he is more suspicious. It is enough to have this factor there.

Because Li Zaian has a special identity, these people dare not touch him directly now, but they will never relax their vigilance against him.

Suspicion is like a weed that breeds in people's hearts. Once it falls into the ground and takes root, it will grow and spread uncontrollably. When this spread reaches a certain level, it is when both sides tear apart.

Mike knew very well that those people were not easy to mess with, but Li Zaian was not a good person.

Those Washington politicians who hold great power seem to be on the same level as Li Zai'an, a rogue proletarian.

But those noble guys never expected that when the two fought against each other a few months later, Li Zaian, an inconspicuous little person, would have upended the entire American political and financial circles.

What is the reason?

It's very simple. Politicians have rules of the game that politicians have to abide by, but lawless outlaws like Li Zai'an will not abide by any laws and rules.

But, no matter what, Mike's goal has been achieved since the moment he died, but he himself cannot see the result.

Despite the late winter season, the temperature in New York is not very low, at least not so low that it feels unbearable.

However, the temperature below zero still made Li Zaian, who has been living in St. Paul since his rebirth, feel uncomfortable.

The not-so-luxury Lincoln car is not very prominent in the traffic flow on the streets of New York, just like an ordinary person walking through the crowd. Even if he passes by, no one will look back and take a look.

But who would have thought that in this ordinary Lincoln car, there was a Brazilian drug lord

Paul, it's not that I can't get entangled, it's mainly... You know, the kindness of Edwino company, you really have no reason to refuse it. Brent in casual clothes kept complaining when the car stopped.

Brent already knows about Mike, but he has not entered the core level of the Tail Hook Association.

Therefore, after Mike's death, he naturally thought that the matter had passed and that the relationship between him and Li Zai'an could continue. Those high-ranking masters will one day give him some benefits.

Of course, he didn't want Li Zai'an to reject the contract from Edwino Company. That was a lot of money. Even if they couldn't do the ship maintenance work, they could at least turn it over and get a kickback or something.

A big project worth billions, even if it is a little leaked in the cracks, it shouldn’t be an exaggeration to get a rebate of millions, right?

Deep down, Brent really doesn't want Li Zaian to suffer any losses. After all, this guy is his funder, and the funder's loss is equivalent to his loss.

The driver was a blond young woman in her thirties, wearing a decent lady's suit, a blue big-brimmed hat, and a floral bow tied around her neck, which made the young woman look cool and intellectual.

She turned a deaf ear to the conversation between the two men behind her. When the car stopped, she jumped out of the car and opened the door for Li Zaian.

Ignoring Brent's nagging, Li Zaian bowed and got out of the car. When he stood still, he stretched out his hand to tighten the front of the windbreaker.

Li Zai'an's outfit was prepared by Mr. Thompson: a decent and shiny Armani men's clothing, a corduroy black and half-large windbreaker, a Burberry black and white square scarf, a brown Ray-Ban sunglasses, customized handmade leather shoes, and a Tiffany's sterling silver gentleman's cane, which made Li Zai'an look very tasteful

Standing next to the car, Li Zaian pushed his eyes to his forehead, his eyes were cast from under the glasses frame, and he looked at the two towering skyscrapers not far away.

That is the location of the World Trade Center. Two buildings that look like towering towering into the clouds are like landmarks here. You can see them as long as you are not blind.

However, looking back on his previous life, this pair of Gemini Buildings does not seem to have much time left. Ten years later, bin Laden, the world's number one terrorist, will turn them into ruins

Of course, Li Zai'an was not here to bomb the World Trade Center today. His target was on the corner of the street not far away. The National Trust Savings Bank, which is known as the Bank of America, is very eye-catching on the big red neon sign.

Li Zaian will open four accounts in this bank and transfer all the large amount of funds he had received from Banoro before.
