Chapter 186: New Payment Methods
New York, inside a GM van in the Bronx.
Al was smoking a leaf while playing with his Nokia phone.
Since the singer he followed shot the "New York Pride" 2Pac in Los Angeles, he has completely cut off his hope of becoming famous.
When Al returned to New York, he was surprised to find that the Asian thief had actually become a best-selling author!
So, with no way out, he was ready to go to Wang Yan and be a follower or something.
Although best-selling authors are not like pop stars and football stars, celebrity partners are prevalent.
However, when the other party had just served in the community, he still took him in by himself.
Belch...
Even the rent is a little more expensive than in other places.
But in the Bronx, there is also a certain risk in taking in an Asian American.
As for the subsequent shooting, the responsibility was put on Wang Jian.
Please, I'm a follower!
There is nothing to say!
But when Al inquired about Wang Yan's address in Brooklyn, the other party moved again, and it was Manhattan!
When he came to the luxury apartment in Manhattan, he was kicked out by the security guards.
I remember that at that time, there were two policemen patrolling nearby!
When he shouted "racial discrimination", the two policemen pretended not to see it!
In the end, the helpless Al, like many black people, embarked on the road of selling addictive drugs.
It's just that in his spare time, he pulls out his phone and looks at what his former roommate has written.
I remember that at the beginning, Al watched with the mentality of "a thief can actually become a writer".
But after a while, he felt... It's quite good.
Al's favorite ones are "Extreme Heavenly Demon", as well as "Prison Break Special Forces".
As for "Arcane Throne", he didn't understand it very well.
In the case of "Abnormal Creature Observations", so many women, just fuck directly.
Because of his industry, Al is reluctant to use a Visa card that requires real-name registration.
Most of the money in his hands was cash, as well as bearer bonds.
But the embarrassing point is that this kind of thing is not very convenient to recharge.
He can often only see a small part of this.
Whenever this happens, Al swells up with the urge to find a proper job.
And then... Forget it.
Today, he sat in the car again and watched the first half of "Extreme Heavenly Demon".
shitοΌ
The protagonist is looked down upon by Zeus, what about below?
"Huh, PayPal?" Al was a little puzzled, playing with the mortgaged phone.
After clicking the button, he was surprised to find that this PayPal actually supports bearer bonds.
Al took out ten dollars and threw it directly into the box.
"I'll change this one. β
"What do you want to do?" asked the companion.
"Leave it alone. Al waved his hand.
When the bearer bond arrived, he scratched off the captcha.
Generally, banks use this thing to exchange cash for people.
"ars...", Al typed a line of letters into it, and was pleasantly surprised to find that he was able to continue watching.
"Can you watch the second half of Extreme Heavenly Demons?" asked his companion in surprise.
Although he was not as obsessed with it as Al, he had been with it a few times while he was bored waiting for a trade.
"Hmm. Al happily exhaled a puff of smoke, "Super hi, do you want to see it?"
"Look!" replied the companion aloud.
Half an hour later, another ten dollars were thrown into the box.
This time, though, it was a companion who threw it.
"Fuck!" Al cried, "Protagonist, did you encounter a sea monster?"
"That's Cthulhu!" his companion replied disdainfully.
"Uh," he rummaged through his pockets and looked at Al, "I don't have any money on me." β
"I'm gone, too. Al replied.
The two looked at each other and at the same time.
Inside, there is also a stack of bearer bonds.
After ten minutes of silence, Al looked at his companion, "Do you want to see it?"
"Yes. The companion replied without hesitation.
"Just nowβ" Al rolled his eyes and pointed out the window, "Is there a lame gang passing by and trying to steal our goods?"
The companion was stunned for a moment, and immediately nodded.
He pulled Al out of the car, pulled out his pistol and shot the car a few times.
"They have too many people and too many guns, we can't beat them!"
Al tugged at the corners of his mouth and climbed back into the car.
This time, the two scraped bonds together.
"Hmph, the boss can't imagine where the money went. β
"Ha, our boss, but I don't even know a few words!"
......
Manhattan, inside a public elementary school.
Little Jean obediently lined up at the end of the line, watching the other children talk and laugh and play.
Although according to Mom, this is the best school in New York, Jean doesn't like it.
Except for the days when his Asian brother came to the school to speak, his classmates followed him for a while because of curiosity, and soon became transparent himself.
It's not that no one shouts to play together, it's just...
The students all took their parents' visa cards and spent as much as they wanted.
Jean understands that his mother can't afford such a high expense.
And what he has is a debit card that requires a password to spend.
"Alas, tomorrow is the weekend, so you can go home and have a good rest. β
"I'm going to get some sleep when I get home, and then I'm going to take a good look at Anomalous Creature Sights. β
"I heard that "Anomaly" is going to be adapted into a TV series, and the male protagonist is very similar to the description in the book. β
"Not at all!" Another person retorted loudly, "The male protagonist should be super handsome!"
"It's obviously unremarkable!" a classmate pulled out his phone and began to click the buttons.
"Look!" he said, pointing to the screen of his phone.
Unexpectedly, another classmate asked loudly: "What's going on with this PayPal?"
"PayPal?"
The first child took back his phone and looked at it suspiciously.
After a moment, he looked up and shouted, "Who has a debit card?"
Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and they all took out their VISA supplementary cards.
"This says that PayPal does not support VISA cards for the time being, and it needs to be debugged. β
"Uh," Jean hesitated and held out his hand, "I have." β
"You really have, don't lie to us!" several "people of the year" on the campus rushed over and shouted loudly.
"The money on the card is limited, and it's all my living expenses. Jean cringed a little.
I have to say that those who study in this school are either rich or expensive.
The other child pulled out his VISA card and waved it.
"Whatever you need, I'll buy it for you. β
"By the way, what's your password?" said one of the kids, looking at Jean.
"Uhh
"My dad said that the money must be in your own hands. A child, said in the tone of an adult.
The child at the head frowned and rushed directly to the front of the line.
"Seven French steaks with mushroom bisque. β
"Thank you. A few children greeted the guest, then hurriedly picked up their plates and ran forward.
"Gene, you're coming, too!" someone urged.
"Me?" Jean asked, gesturing to his nose and quizzing.
"Yes, I'll come to the highest table later. β
A few minutes later, Jean, who was originally a little transparent, came to the table that only people can come to in the envy of others.
"Hurry up, Jean. The boy in the lead handed over the phone, "You only need to subscribe to five chapters..."
"Ah no, ten chapters will do!"
