Chapter 7 Manhattan 1
When Gao Cheng woke up, the sky of the city was still foggy and gloomy, and the view outside the window was very depressing. In addition to the weather system here, the other reason for the long-term haze here is the industrial system here. They came here two days ago, and when they came, they happened to encounter a workers' strike here, so they could not live in the place they were originally going to stay.
"Master, you're awake." Chen Bing looked at this time. According to Gao Cheng's daily schedule, he would indeed get up at this time. "Mr. Lin is coming downstairs. He has been waiting for you for a long time." The situation yesterday was indeed very urgent. Almost the entire eastern part of the city was paralyzed. When Chen Bing was still worrying about the next positioning, a pair of armed forces suddenly appeared and rescued them. They also arranged for them to live in a mansion. This was indeed like a fairy tale.
Gao Cheng thought for a while and finally stuck his head out of the bed. His sleeping posture is very good, and there is almost no indecent sleeping appearance, so it won't be too troublesome to tidy up. He looked around, and then Parker came in from the door. When he saw the sleepy figure sitting on the bed, his heart turned into a puddle of water . He motioned to Chen Bing to come, and Chen Bing retreated first.
"Where are you going?" Gao Cheng leaned into Parker's arms and honestly put on his clothes with his help. Of course, this was limited to clothes. Gao Cheng didn't like what Parker did for him now, including putting on his pants and hugging him. This change is indeed a good thing, but for some reason, Parker's heart started to feel a little empty.
Parker said: "I started chatting with Mr. Lin. I'm sorry that I didn't ask for your permission."
"Anything gained?" Gao Cheng asked softly. He liked hearing Parker's voice very much: "No, I just wanted to see if he had any weapons or anything." Gao Cheng did not comment on his words. Parker buttoned up his clothes and said, "His weapons are very sharp, and I think the lethality is quite astonishing."
"Oh." Gao Cheng was a little curious now. Parker rarely joked, and of course he would not miss this opportunity easily. He pretended to be mysterious and said: "I almost assassinated him." Gao Cheng rolled his eyes and said softly : "What kind of weapon is it that is so powerful? Even you will be assassinated, so what will I do?"
Parker couldn't help laughing: "His face is a weapon. You have to be careful."
Lin Luan had already started paying attention to Gao Cheng's schedule when he came to Manhattan. He was very happy that his godson, who had made Hong Kong a storm, settled here. It was his honor. But he also knew that judging from the looks on his face by the servants around him, he didn't seem to be very popular. Chen Bing smiled and said, "Mr. Lin, the young master is up. Please wait a little longer."
"Of course." Lin Luan nodded. "You have worked hard to take care of Mr. Gao Cheng all the way. I know a lot about his temper, and you are very capable." Lin Luan's words made Chen Bing a little confused. What is going on with this man? Not only did he provide them with accommodation, but now he also He cared about Gao Cheng everywhere, and sounded as if Chen Bing was an outsider and he was the one closest to Gao Cheng. Not only was this place beginning to make Chen Bing feel strange, but what he felt was even more strange was Gao Cheng's itinerary. He seemed to be separated from the Gao family and the Lian family now, but he was completely free and unfettered.
"Thank you." Chen Bing replied politely. Before he could ask anything, the sound of crutches hitting the ground came from the stairs. "Master." Before Chen Bing could call out, he found that Lin Luan had already stood up. Gao Cheng didn't like having everyone watching him while walking. He frowned and looked at Lin Luan and said, "I didn't ask you to come."
Lin Luan smiled softly and said, "It's my fault."
Gao Cheng has a very powerful fund bank, which was given to him by Lian Song. It is not about gold and silver, but the means and courage to obtain money. To put it simply, if Gao Cheng would just eat and wait to die on the basis of the funds Liansong gave him, then why would he save this man who was almost beaten into chaff? He has a grandson himself, doesn’t he? The first thing Gao Cheng learned under Lian Song's almost harsh requirements was the struggle for power of the golden gun. Lin Luan was one of Gao Cheng's many experimental varieties. If he had not succeeded, there would have been the next Zhao Luan and Li Luan . It has to be said , this person still has some ability.
Lin Luan eventually became Gao Cheng's fund manager. It may be difficult for outsiders to know what the story between them is like, but in layman's terms, as long as Gao Cheng does not die, Lin Luan's accumulated financial empire will not Break, this is the most authentic and powerful relationship between them. After Lin Luan was sitting on wealth that he had never imagined in his life, sometimes he felt that it was unreal. Everything he had was given by this child, his trustee.
Why not give up? Lin Luan knew that he had signed a contract with the devil, and he had no way out. There was glory in it, or unwillingness, mixed with everything, which was corrupted by the subsequent wealth. Therefore, he had no choice but to retreat.
Obviously, Gao Cheng's identity has not been exposed yet. Lin Luan's eyes are very accurate. He knows that Gao Cheng is an indifferent machine. But from the doubtful housekeepers around him to the intimate man accompanying him, Gao Cheng's weakness was . But for Lin Luan, knowing Gao Cheng's weakness and the bad things, at least he needs to put more energy into protecting his weakness. It's an interesting relationship, isn't it.
Gao Cheng didn't want Lin Luan to appear here, but obviously, there were some problems troubling him now that he appeared. Gao Cheng looked at Chen Bing and Parker beside him, and said to them: "Parker, you go up first, I want to talk to him alone."
"My pleasure." Lin Luan guessed correctly.
Chen Bing felt that their relationship should be very close. Besides, they were living under someone else's roof now, so they didn't have anything to worry about. However, Gao Cheng even avoided Parker. He probably didn't want them to know. Thinking of Gao Cheng's explanation to him before , Chen Bing is still a little worried. Parker had a chat with this person in the morning. His profile information online showed that this person was harmless to them for the time being, and that was enough.
"Sir, when you come here, you can give me a letter in advance. It's been very chaotic here recently, and I'm worried about your safety." The relationship between them is a very delicate one, so he won't ask Gao Cheng many irrelevant questions. Issues, such as what happened in Hong Kong some time ago. There is not that agreement between them, or even if there is such an agreement, many of the relationships between them are parallel lines that do not intersect with each other.
Gao Cheng said: "I know, I haven't said thank you to you yet."
Lin Luan sat straight and said: "Sir, you are joking. I have brought all the information you asked for. I did not protect it well when I was in Singapore." On that black market, Gao Cheng was regarded as a serial killer. Zhan was kidnapped by the godfather. This was not something that could be brought to light. But even though he didn't know Gao Cheng was kidnapped by Seymour at that time , he still sold a favor to the Lian family, and unexpectedly saved his master.
Gao Cheng didn't say anything else. He looked at the information on the table. There seemed to be a person on it, the businessman, the person they were competing with now. "I have sold the line in the Middle East to the government according to your instructions. But sir, I am a little confused." In the black market transaction in Singapore, Gao Cheng obtained the line in an unobtrusive way. He could have taken advantage of this opportunity to earn money. Da Tou, it turned out that he secretly sold it to a certain government at a cabbage price, uncharacteristically. This seemed like a big purchase and a cabbage price sale. Even for someone like Lin Luan who trusted Gao Cheng, he found it a bit unbelievable.
"Talk about it." Gao Cheng supported his head.
Lin Luan raised his eyebrows and expressed his doubts , while Gao Cheng listened quietly. "This line does have extraordinary benefits. Arms are something that will never go out of style. But don't forget, how big an appetite do you have to swallow this thing?" Gao Cheng understood that this line has always been a bait released by the regime. , the arms thing is a fortress, not to mention a country that is often baptized by war. This line is also called the Golden Poppy. Why does everyone who gets this line either disappear or die? To put it bluntly, people who can own this line have a certain amount of armed force, and they are not killed or killed.
The height was estimated to be good a while ago, and those people quickly contacted him. He pushed the boat along and looked at it again. He did this because he really didn't have a big appetite to hold this thing. His heels were still a little unsteady, and he had to make sure that he could survive safely. past infancy. In addition, he attached the medicines they needed. This government owed him a favor. Do you think it would be easier to swallow the line and strangle yourself to death, or to put a long line to catch the big fish? Just when the world was restless, he was already growing quietly in a corner, growing at an astonishing speed.
After listening to Gao Cheng's explanation, Lin Luan smiled and laughed at himself: "Mr. Gao Cheng, I think I am a person with a financial background and have a thorough understanding of the concept of money. I never thought I was too naive."
"The fact that you can swallow up the Tisus family shows that you are powerful. You should know that I don't invite idlers." When Gao Cheng met Lin Luan, he was a patient hunched over on a chair, and he was a patient on the bridge. A down-and-out young man. The young man was holding a financial newspaper and looking at something carefully. Gao Cheng was quietly watching the scenery next to him.
"Look at that beggar, what newspaper is he reading? He can just jump down from here."
"That's right, there is nothing these days. All the beggars are studying."
At that time, the financial crisis happened, and the entire California was cast into a layer of panic. The good father and good employee who he had played before turned into a homeless vagabond overnight . Lin Luan, who had just graduated and successfully entered a local company, had her dream shattered overnight. When Gao Cheng found him, he only had a little money left on him. He didn't give up, so he used the remaining money to buy a job application, even though there was no chance of success in the end.
"Kid, you want to watch too?" Lin Luan didn't know when a pitiful-looking child appeared next to him. He was sitting in a wheelchair, but his eyes were very calm.
At that time, Lin Luan felt for the first time that when God begins to show mercy to you, angels will arrive, even if you later find out that the angel sent may be a devil.
