Long Island of New York is an island in North America in the Atlantic Ocean, located on the east coast of North America, belonging to the state of New York, United States. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

The island is 190 kilometers long and about 20 to 30 kilometers wide, and juts out from New York Harbor into the North Atlantic.

To the north it is separated from the Gulf of Long Island by Connecticut and Rhode Island, to the south is the Great Gulf of the North Atlantic Ocean on the edge of North America, and at the eastern end of Long Island is divided into two forks, the North and the South, which are accordingly called the South Fork and the North Fork.

To the west of Long Island are the urban areas of New York City, Brooklyn and Queens, and to the east are Gnassau and Suffolk counties of New York State.

Surrounded by the sea on three sides, Long Island is covered with forests, abundant rainfall, and has a humid climate, and due to its oceanic climate, the summers are not hot, and it is considered one of the most habitable areas in the world.

It is also an area where the wealthy gather, and many wealthy Americans, including foreign billionaires, have purchased real estate here.

If you're not a vacation destination for the super-rich, nine affluent towns in Nassau County on Long Island's North Shore are the best options.

Different from the dense towns in the general concept, except for some relatively concentrated public service facilities, the wealthy generally live in villas and manors surrounded by greenery, which are very scattered.

For example, at this meeting, Zhang Nan was in front of a two-story villa with 12 bedrooms near Oysbet: the villa is more like a small manor, including the surrounding woods, covering an area of about 1 hectare!

10,000 square meters!

The orientation of the small estate seems to be a little problematic: the long main building faces southeast, not due south, because in front of the house, in addition to the lawn, garden and swimming pool, there is a narrow section of private beach and a wooden trestle in front of the house, which is about 3 meters further downhill.

This is adapted to local conditions, in order to be able to "face the sea, spring flowers." ”

Standing at the front door of the house, you can see a bay, and in the distance you can see another peninsula jutting out of Long Island a few nautical miles away.

The furnishings in the house are basically still there, and the main building is a reinforced concrete and stone structure, built in the 70s.

"Yes, not a wooden house. ”

Zhang Nan knows that American man-made houses often use wood, because they don't plan to live for generations! But thinking about the tragic situation of those wooden villas in the hurricane, Zhang Nan really doesn't like American wooden houses!

In addition to Manager Curry, there will be three white people standing around Zhang Nan and Nicole, this is the bodyguard he hired.

Thomas Jackson, forty years old this year, taller than Zhang Nan, does not seem to be strong, but he is the head of this group of people. He fought in the Vietnam War and was a marine.

He joined a security company after the Vietnam War and has more than 10 years of experience in private security.

He is married and has three children at home.

Paul George, 30 years old, married and has a little girl at home. The height is close to 1.9 meters. After 5 years as a soldier, it seems to be some kind of air force special service, then worked as a firefighter for two years, and became a private bodyguard four years ago.

Anthony Davis, an armed driver, 48, a former police officer, took early retirement two years ago. Because of the high salary in this industry, and he has 5 children to support: the eldest is 20 years old and is in college, and the youngest is only 5 years old and still in kindergarten.

There was also an armed driver who was watching the car on the road between the house and the grove, Zach Lavin, a black man, 35 years old, married, and a pair of twin sons who were only 3 years old.

This man is not tall, only about 1.70 meters, and he has worked in the FBI based on his resume. However, at that time, he was not a "senior staff" like a special investigator, but a full-time driver. Earlier, I also worked in the army, it was the army, and I knew how to drive specially.

As for the reason for leaving the Bureau of Investigation a year ago, it is a bit strange and a little helpless: layoffs!

These are the four bodyguards of Zhang Nan at present, and as for the other seven full-time bodyguards, Curry is asking his subordinates to look for them: some candidates are still being hired by employers temporarily, and some are on vacation. The bodyguards on duty also need to be screened in advance, because Zhang Nan has his own requirements: there is no requirement for skin color, we are not race-clan-righteous-, but all bodyguards must be married and have children!

Bachelors don't!

Married people with children will have concerns, although if there is a real fatal situation, it depends on the professional quality and professional ethics of the bodyguard. But the benefits are even greater: parents generally don't mess around, because there are family bonds!

Some people say that the Zhongnan-Hai bodyguards are all orphans who were born and trained since childhood, Zhang Nan thinks it's!

How dare you use an orphan as a personal bodyguard?

Bodyguards, it's best to have a lot of children at home, old and young!

Besides, there are two big beauties in the family, young man, let's not do it!

......

The more I look at this house, the more familiar I feel, looking east and west, looking up and down, so that the buddies of the real estate company who accompany me are a little confused about the situation: others look at the interior and look at the surrounding scenery, how does this Mr. Allen look at the angle is a little different from others, always staring at the woods on the side of the lawn!

"I don't have to go to the second place, this house is good, if the price can be reduced by another $200,000, I will buy it." ”

Nicole also came to help, and after some negotiation, she won $4.12 million, which was $80,000 cheaper.

It's really not expensive, it's only about 40 kilometers from Manhattan, and it's still a mansion with a private beach!

Next, contact the housekeeping company: the house does not need to be redecorated, but it is necessary to clean and decorate the house, add some furniture, covers, pots and pans......

The matter is directly handed over to Nicole, and the girls can do whatever they like.

But Nicole didn't have time either, but fortunately, the housekeeping company had a model: various styles of interior furnishing plans, as well as brand introductions for various house items.

It can be done in a week, and the work will start tomorrow, and the security company will also step in.

After the real estate company completed all the formalities, Zhang Nan asked: "According to American law, does everything in this house and within the property right land belong to me?"

"Yes Mr. Allen, even if oil gushes out of your pool, it is your private property, sacrosanct. ”

The person in charge of the real estate company said with a smile.

Zhang Nan was very satisfied and left with Nicole and four bodyguards.

Curry has returned to the security company, and Zhang Nan directly hired these four bodyguards for a year - when they left in the second half of the year, the four of them would protect Nicole and Jenny respectively.

The other 7 bodyguards will be hired for 4 months after a week of taking office, and after the time expires, Zhang Nan will also have the right of priority to renew the commission.

As soon as he went out, he said to the head of the bodyguard: "Jackson, do you know where to buy underground metal detectors?"

It's an interesting question, but bodyguards, this metal detector is the most familiar, second only to firearms.

And for some bizarre requests from employers, as long as they do not involve their privacy or seriously violate the law, the bodyguards will fully cooperate.

"You can buy it a block away. ”

The crowd had two cars and set off to buy something.

The bulletproof SUV has a partition in front of the driver's seat, and the interior is very spacious, but only two people can sit side by side, and there are two leather folding chairs opposite that can be turned down, and there is a folding desk in the middle.

Davis was driving, Jackson was in the co-pilot, and Zhang Nan sat with Nicole.

"Alan, what do you want a probe?" Nicole was curious, because the request was too naïve: do you want to explore treasure when you buy a new house?

That's a children's hobby.

However, Zhang Nan's answer was really "naïve": "Well, dig treasure!"

"I guess a few coins will be found. ”

Nicole disagreed.

"It's fun, you know?"

Maybe I'll surprise Nicole later!

However, Zhang Nan doesn't know if he is wrong, and hopes that this trip can give him a little surprise.

After more than an hour, the group returned to the small estate. As soon as the car entered the gate, Zhang Nan gave the janitor temporarily sent by the housekeeping company a hundred dollars, "Go to town for a drink and come back before 5 p.m." ”

The janitor didn't care what you were going to do, so he took a hundred dollars for nothing and happily drove around town in a small broken car.

Carrying the detector to work, this made the bodyguards curious: this new employer is really a very person. But they didn't get closer: their work ethic blinded them to all the strange behaviour of their employers.

Zhang Nan slowly probed along the side of the woods, and it didn't matter if he was seen by the bodyguards, those people had signed a very strict confidentiality agreement.

For half an hour, even Nicole, who was sitting in a chair, was a little impatient.

"Raven, do me a favor, help me get a shovel in the tool room. ”

The small manor has a tool room, which contains all kinds of tools from car repair tools to lawn and garden construction. This will make Zhang Nan a little tired, anyway, the armed driver will also do some groceries in his free time, so it's no problem to call it.

After a while, LaVine trotted over with a shovel, "Mr. Allen, do you need help?"

It's not easy to find a job with a high salary and long-term employment, and LaVine is a black man, and although there is no race-ethnicity in the company, everyone understands that it will be more difficult for black people to take jobs.

"Call me boss, sir sounds awkward. Saying that, Zhang Nan drew a circle about fifty or sixty centimeters in diameter at the edge of the woods, with a layer of leaves and moss on it, "Dig up this place, it's very shallow, 20 centimeters at most, be careful." ”

Seeing the little man Ravan digging in the soil, several other bodyguards were also a little curious, but they were embarrassed to come around.

"Now it's time to rest, and the guys are coming over to see if this new home can bring me some good luck. ”

Since the employer said so, the bodyguards also surrounded him.

"Boss, there's something down there!"

Ravan was carefully digging the earth, and after removing the leaves and moss and a layer of dirt about 20 centimeters, the pit revealed some "unnatural" objects.

Setting the shovel aside, Ravan carefully separated the dirt with the knife he had with him, revealing several rusted tin cans in the dirt.

Now even the serious bodyguards laughed: the boss really dug up the "treasure" this time!

Nicole laughed even more, "Dear Alan, congratulations on digging up the first treasures in your new home!"

Zhang Nan was also smiling there, but his smile was different from the others.

When Nicole was almost laughing, Zhang Nan said, "Not necessarily, maybe there are diamonds in it?"

As he spoke, he squatted down and took out a rusty tin can and handed it to Jackson next to him.

Jackson took it disapprovingly, and couldn't laugh for a moment! )
