America's Road To Wealth Chapter 421

  Chapter 421 Manhattan Daily

  The so-called passage of time.

  The position of the individual is different, and the state of mind will also be different.

   At the beginning, when I found that I had an invincible talent on Wall Street.

  Abel was very excited. He achieved the achievement of wealth and freedom in the shortest time.

   After that is enjoyment.

  He enjoyed it hard for a month.

  In the capitalist world, after a severe fall.

  His cautious nature regained the upper hand.

   After seeing too many conspiracy theory reborns, I started to think about things, and started to worry.

   Also since then.

   Abel volunteered to pay taxes vigorously to the IRS.

   Volunteer to donate to those charitable foundations.

   Take the initiative to contribute to the New York Police Department.

  At the same time in life, Abel began to become low-key, not in contact with other colleagues of the same kind.

  That was the half year from the end of 1999 to the middle of 2000.

  At that time, Abel's ideal was to be a safe and rich man.

   There is endless money to spend every day, and there are luxury houses that everyone can live in for a day and a month.

  You can change to a goddess-level girlfriend every month.

   Having his own private jet, yacht, etc., he is content.

   However, human ambition is unlimited.

  When wealth gathered around him in large numbers because of his talent.

  As the more wealth he mastered, Abel's ambitions continued to expand.

  Since the middle of two years ago, his goals in life have changed.

  Abel is no longer reconciled, he just wants to be a rich rich man.

  He also wants influence, and he also wants to become one of the real masters while ensuring safety.

  After changing his life goals, Abel walked out of his self-righteous "safe house".

  He began to take the initiative to contact the same kind, and began to participate in some high society parties in New York.

  With this start, everything behind will be a matter of course.

  To this day, at the beginning, Abel Smith was unwilling to provoke wealthy women and was afraid of causing trouble.

   is already past tense.

   As the Texas consortium, one of the core figures today.

   Can already be regarded as one of the top figures in this country.

   Facing a wealthy family of Hearst's level, Abel already has a somewhat condescending perspective.

  Now wants to defeat Abel.

  In addition to using physical means against Lincoln and Kennedy, it can be said that it is already difficult to do.

  Now Abel is the leader of a huge vested interest group.

   Not only the Texas consortium, but even the oilman capital has placed a heavy bet on him.

  He is also one of the representative figures in New York, and also has a lot of investment on the West Coast.

   At the same time, he is also a new banner launched by the federal government to the whole United States, and even the whole world.

  It is the new lamp bead with super high brightness.

  Even if it is the legendary thirteen families of the Illuminati, it is not so easy to target him and defeat him.

  The increase in status and influence made the Hearst family that he was afraid of before.

   Now, for him, it is no longer prominent.

  The Hearst family is in New York, which is actually similar to the Newhouse family.

  One of the two is the representative of the Oilers in publishing and multimedia, and the other is the representative of the Angsan side.

  Abel is not afraid of Newhouse, which means that Hearst is not worried either.

  So when Amanda repeatedly "provoked" him from various angles.

  Abel finally "can't bear it anymore".

  In the restroom of the banquet hall of the Waldorf Astoria Hotel.

   He solved this "trouble".

   Afterwards, Abel felt.

  Amanda might be better suited to be Patty Hearst's daughter than Lydia.

  After the initial painful period has passed.

   Her kind of initiative and madness.

   It was also the first time Abel saw the girls who took First Blood by him.

   While he was a little surprised, he also enjoyed it very much.

  Compared to several of his well-born women.

  Amanda, who is also from a famous family, has a completely different style from them in this regard.

   Kind of like his showbiz girls.

   But they are more or less acting.

  And Amanda's identity is still like this, so there is a high probability that she is not acting.

   It could be her, it's just what it is.

  In short, the first night after returning to New York from Texas.

  Abel thoroughly enjoyed it.

  The next morning.

  Manhattan, New York, Midtown Central. Central Park South 1.

   This is a residential building called Square Apartment, which was built in 1907, with 20 floors and 115 units.

  Most of the units in the apartment are located on the first fifteen floors, and the top five floors are all large units.

   Especially the 19th and 20th floors, each with only one unit for an entire floor, and each floor is over 24,000 square feet.

  A complete apartment building with complete supporting facilities and a 24-hour doorman.

   There are gymnasium, elevator, laundry room, storage room, garage and other facilities.

  The 20th and 19th floors of the apartment were previously independent.

   At the end of 2000, these two floors were bought by a company called New Starting Building.

  They were reopened, redecorated.

  Now it is a 13-bedroom, 16.5-bathroom super-large apartment with an interior area of ​​approximately 49,000 square feet.

  The large flat floor is close to Central Park, and the outdoor space on the top balcony was also bought.

   It has also been transformed into a swimming pool on the large flat floor, an outdoor rest area and an outdoor garden.

   At many luxury real estate agencies in New York.

   This large flat layer is now valued at more than hundreds of millions of dollars.

   It's just that this is obviously a house with a price but no market.

   Because of its owner, it will not be sold.

  Its owner is one of the luxurious figures in this city, Mr. Abel Smith.

  Last night, Abel, who seldom stayed in this super flat, brought Amanda Hearst in behind him.

  After tossing all night.

  At eight o'clock in the morning, among the 13 bedrooms, the largest one has the best outward view, and the master bedroom directly faces Central Park.

   On the specially customized round high-end Simmons card in Simmons Company, Abel opened his eyes.

  Beside her was Amanda, who was sleeping soundly, with fair skin but many red marks on her body.

   Some of these red marks were made by Abel.

   But more of it was last night, when she was so happy that she was about to lose control, she accidentally made it out by herself.

   This chick is very aggressive.

  Listening to her slight snoring, Abel knew he was the same as his other women.

  Amanda probably won't wake up until noon today.

  He wasn't going to lie here and wait until she woke up.

   Sit up from the round Simmons.

  Looking at the beautiful Sleeping Beauty in deep sleep.

  Abel bent down subconsciously, wanting to kiss her slightly baby-fat cheek.

  Bowed halfway, he stopped.

  He smelled it.

   It's not Amanda's bad breath or anything.

   She sleeps with her mouth closed and there is no smell.

  Abel smelled something else on her cheeks, near the corners of her mouth.

  Smells of stinky heather.

  Heather certainly wouldn't be planted in a bedroom.

   That's Abel's own taste.

  Forget it, forget it, stop kissing, can't continue kissing.

  Abel covered her with the quilt, got up directly, and went into the bathroom of the master bedroom.

   Looking at the messy bathroom, Abel scratched his head.

   It is not possible to take a shower here.

  Last night, this was also one of the battlefields.

   Shaking his head slightly, Abel turned and left the bathroom and walked outside the master bedroom.

  Open the door of the master bedroom, outside the door stood Donnie and another female bodyguard.

  Generally, when staying in a hotel, two of the Four King Kongs are responsible for keeping watch for Abel.

   And at home, no matter which home.

  The vigil for Abel's room is usually done by Donnie and other female bodyguards.

  Looking at the boss who came out of the master bedroom with no clothes on.

  Doni and another female bodyguard, without looking sideways, whispered hello to the boss.

   "Good morning, BOSS."

   It's not that they are well-informed and have seen bigger ones than this.

   Rather, they've seen it too many times.

  Seeing too much, no matter how shocking it is.

  It's like what if dinosaurs really existed and lived to this time.

  If they are really discovered, all human beings will be very rare at first, very rare.

   But if they are successfully reproduced in large numbers, everyone can often see them around.

  Then to human beings, they are probably some huge cows, sheep, cats and dogs.

   Abel smiled and nodded slightly to the two female bodyguards.

   "I need to take a shower, the bathroom inside is messy. Get me a new set of clothes."

   Two female bodyguards responded quickly, and one of the female bodyguards left to inform the housekeeper.

  Donnie took Abel into the bathroom of another bedroom.

  Before the maid came to serve.

  The female bodyguard captain Doni temporarily acted as a maid, filling the bathtub with water for her master, preparing bath supplies, even washing his hair and rubbing his shoulders without fear of getting wet.

  Everything is very natural and smooth.

  Because Donnie sometimes does these things on weekdays.

  Close your eyes and ask Donnie to help wash your hair, and Abel chats with her softly.

   "Donnie, I heard that you and Johnson have established a relationship?"

   "Ah... yes the BOSS."

   "It's strange, I didn't expect you to be with Johnson."

   "I'm also surprised. But, BOSS. I have to admit, I have a crush on Johnson. I'm serious, and so is he."

  Feeling her slightly callused hands, washing her hair.

  Abel said again: "That's good. In fact, I think Johnson has a better personality. He is also black. As a boyfriend or husband, I believe Johnson must be much better than Lincoln."

  Johnson is Abel's bodyguard, the black sharpshooter among the Four Heavenly Kings.

  The four kings of rock security, Edward, Lincoln, Johnson, and Lin.

   These 4 people each have their own areas of expertise.

  The most stable character is Edward, but the most careful is the sniper Johnson.

  Johnson is a black man. He looks very ordinary among blacks. He is tall and looks like a slightly smaller version of O'Neill.

   He has always been taciturn, and he is the one who talks the least among Abel's Four King Kongs.

  Abel didn't expect that Johnson, who talked the least and had no sense of presence, would meet Donnie.

   At this time, two pretty maids in maid costumes, led by the housekeeper, walked into the bathroom.

  The water in the bathtub has just been put out, and at the same time Donnie rinsed Abel's hair.

   Abel, who opened his eyes, looked at Doni, who was only a little shorter than himself and weighed about the same as himself.

  He suddenly felt that although Donnie was a decent white Texas person.

   is also the younger sister of John, and the aunt of John IV.

  One of the people I have known since I was a child.

  But it seems reasonable for Johnson to match her.

  This height, this waistline weight...

  Professionals are here.

  Doni looked carefully at the two maids, after making sure they were safe.

  She nodded to the housekeeper and exited the bathroom.

  Abel lay down in the bathtub, and two maids began to serve him.

   Decent service, body scrubbing, cleaning kind.

   To those around him, especially these maids, bodyguards and the like.

  Abel is always pleasant and has a good attitude.

   And he never engages in beautiful bodyguards, beautiful maids and the like.

  Girlfriends are girlfriends, bodyguards are bodyguards, housekeepers are housekeepers, maids are maids.

  He always has a clear positioning and never confuses it.

   Beside him, the housekeeper was holding his clothes and waiting.

  All Abel needs to do is to close his eyes, accept the specially trained professional techniques of the maids, and give him a massage to relax while bathing his body.

  About twenty minutes later, when he walked out of the bathroom, Abel's whole body looked completely new.

   Simply in a restaurant with several hundred square feet, after breakfast.

   Wearing a light blue suit, he left the building.

   When leaving the gate of the building, a small episode happened.

  When Abel walked out of the door of the apartment building.

   There was a little girl wearing sunglasses and a peaked cap, accompanied by several women, screaming out his name.

   "Abel Smith? Mr. Abel Smith? Are you Mr. Abel Smith?!"

   No need for Abel to do anything.

   Rock security personnel responded immediately, isolating their owners from possible dangerous contact.

  Abel ignored the little girl and those women.

  He went straight out the door and onto the Cadillac monster in the middle of the convoy.

   Ten minutes later.

  Edward in the passenger seat held the satellite phone and explained the ins and outs of the episode just now.

   "It's a young Hollywood actress. I've checked the information and confirmed with the other party's agent and company."

   "She has activities in New York recently. Her agent rented her a house in the Plaza Apartment, in other words, she also lives here, in room 69 on the thirteenth floor."

   "She seems to admire you BOSS very much. After recognizing you, she couldn't help shouting out. That's why the scene just now happened."

   "Oh, that's right. BOSS, the agency she signed with is your CAA agency."

  After listening to Edward's explanation, Abel nodded slightly.

  CAA brokerage company, a name that has been a bit long for him.

  But two years ago, when his career had just started and he was just about to try his hand at finance and other fields.

  In order to acquire the shares of this company, he also spent a lot of thought at that time.

  My favorite cosplay is Liv Tyler, who was also collected by him at that time.

   Mainly at the time, he had nothing in New York except money.

   To do anything, you need to do it yourself.

   Unlike now, even if the entire CAA is given to him, he is indifferent.

   "Keep an eye on it for a while, and talk about it after making sure it's safe."

   Abel said softly.

  Edward nodded, holding the satellite phone and was about to turn around.

  Suddenly, the captain of the bodyguard seemed to think of something, and turned to the boss behind him and said:

   "By the way, this little actress is less than 12 years old this year. She is an Englishman named Emma Watson."

   "Emma Watson?" The name Abel felt familiar, and he said with a casual smile:

   "A British actress who is less than 12 years old, what activities is there in New York? She won't be cheated."

   "Should... no?"

  Edward said uncertainly: "She is the heroine of the "Harry Potter" movie. Many children like her. It seems that she is here in New York for a book signing event, a new book signing platform for writer JK Rowling."

  The person who reported to Edward just now didn't say these things.

  The reason why Edward knows Emma Watson so clearly.

  Because he has a daughter and a son, a 6-year-old and an 8-year-old.

  These two children are Abel's godsons and goddaughters in name, and they are destined to be more prominent figures than their parents in the future.

  The two children are crazy fans of little wizards. Even Abel, an unreliable godfather, has heard of their love.

  Edward pays more attention to family and loves children.

  In addition to working hours, Edward is with his family at other times.

   Having been with the child for a long time, Edward naturally has some understanding of the child's idol and love.

  Even this time Emma Watson came to New York to sign the new book of "Harry Potter".

  Edward also took the initiative to find someone and got a few tickets for him.

   This little thing is too simple for Edward now.

  As Abel's bodyguard captain, he is also considered a figure now.

  At that time, Edward or his wife will take the children to participate and see their idols.

   "Wait... Did you just say Emma Watt?"

   After Edward finished speaking, a few seconds later, he suddenly heard the boss say this.

  The bodyguard captain nodded.

   "In the "Harry Potter" movie, the actor who played Hermione, that Emma Watson?"

   "That's her."

"Okay, I get it now."

   Hearing the boss's answer like this, there was no further response.

  Edward also sat down in the co-pilot seat.

  The captain of the bodyguard watched the driver Andy driving next to him, and at the same time was always vigilant about the situation outside the car.

  The convoy was quietly swimming with the car river in the Manhattan vehicles in the morning.

  At about 9:00 in the morning, the convoy entered near Wall Street.

   Looking not far away, the small street that symbolizes money, madness, greed, and power.

   People there, the desire for money is almost pathological.

  When a group of money addicts get together, it is a disaster.

  The late sociologist and playwright Philip Slater described the symptoms of an addiction to wealth in a 1980 book.

  In that book, the writer says that money addicts are a danger to everyone, yes, everyone.

  They are energetic, competitive, ambitious, and have wealth, but they are under great pressure. They abuse laundry detergent and alcohol. Women are indispensable for their parties, venting the pressure brought by their work.

  If you want to know about this, Xiao Lizi's movie "The Wolf of Wall Street" is a good choice.

  In Wall Street, at the entrance of Smith Building.

   Abel gets off the Cadillac monster.

  He looked up at the Smith Building in front of him.

   After half a year of renovation, inside and out.

   Today's Smith Building, also known as the Woolworth Building, has long been completely new.

  It looks nothing like an old building with a history of more than 80 years at the beginning of the last century.

  Now it is like the Texas consortium after accepting Abel.

  While maintaining the old heritage and history, it has been injected with a new impetus.

  Old shell, stronger limbs, and a new engine that can output terrifying power.

  Old things with new looks.

  It is bound to have a subversive impact on the old order.

   "Hoo—"

  In New York in February, the air is slightly cold.

  Abel exhaled a puff of white smoke.

  He stepped out easily and walked towards the Smith Building.
