Chapter 22: You're a Smart Man
Don't call old Sam in a hurry, give the old man enough time to think about it.
Avoid pushing the other party too hard, but miss this good business, the first contact, trust this thing still needs to be cultivated slowly, and you can't eat hot tofu in a hurry.
Until before school, Ye Dongqing was reading.
I hurriedly read a whole book of history and social science review materials, and successfully wrote an essay, the topic is the writing question of this exam in my memory, and after practicing, I feel that it is not perfect enough, and I am ready to change it when I go home.
During the lunch break, Miss Laura did not give him an accurate answer, but replied that she would let herself think about it for a while and exchanged mobile phone numbers with each other.
Agree or not, Ye Dongqing can accept it, if you force the other party to work for you, it is equivalent to burying a dangerous mine around you, this kind of thing is better if you and I are willing.
To be honest, he hopes that Laura can agree, so that he can save himself from finding his partners in his previous life, and he can also save the life of this "lost girl", as long as Old Sam agrees to continue to let him take over the business, it is not an easy thing to help Laura earn tuition, and the profits of money laundering are much larger than people think.
Taking a step back, in case of the East Window incident, although it will affect the plan, the impact will never be too great.
In his opinion, it is okay to start a business first and then get a degree, as long as you are successful, everything is easy to say.
Throw tens of millions of dollars out, from bachelor's degrees to doctorates, you can almost pick at will, not every school is like Oxford, Harvard, Cambridge and other famous schools, with hundreds of millions, billions of dollars lying on the account. For example, Tyson, the boxing champion who can't read a lot of big characters and has been in prison several times, has not also been awarded a doctorate degree by Wilberforce Central State University, which shows that the degree is really "valuable".
What is difficult in the eyes of the poor is probably not too difficult in the eyes of the rich, and Ye Dongqing is more worried about missing the opportunity and passing by the opportunity to get rich than not being able to go to school, he is such a layman.
As for the lofty ideals such as changing the world and promoting the development of human civilization, that is a matter that needs to be considered after life is comfortable, and the average super-rich like to take this responsibility on themselves......
After three o'clock in the afternoon, Ye Dongqing's class schedule was blank, and theoretically when the teacher announced the end of class, he was already out of school.
If Manhattan International High School is a prestigious school with excellent educational quality, many students will choose AP electives. The so-called "AP electives", in layman's terms, are to study college courses in advance during high school, take AP exams after completing coursework, and get a certain score to get college credits.
While taking a course in college can cost thousands of dollars, taking AP exams only costs a few dozen dollars, so taking AP courses can not only show a student's abilities and make it easier for them to be accepted into prestigious schools, but also a way to save money. Laura, who has already received a college letter but is still attending classes in this middle school, is counting on passing AP courses to make herself graduate a year early in the future, saving tens of thousands of dollars in unjust money.
The school does not make hard requirements, so that students can voluntarily choose whether to read or not, don't expect the students of this bad school to be so conscious, including Ye Dongqing, a large group of students rushed to the school gate.
There are also some people who stay in school to participate in club activities, bragging, fighting, smoking together, and how happy they come. The content of the class should be ignored, and the teachers and parents should be happy.
Ye Dongqing remembered that in this era, he had taken AP courses, and he had forgotten whether he had gotten credits, and it seemed that he had taken a few points, anyway, he didn't plan to continue to listen to classes today, and after leaving the school, he walked on the road empty-handed, took out his mobile phone, and called Mr. Sam.
After a few sounds, the old man's voice came: "I received your watch, it looks very good, Patek Philippe genuine watches, why haven't I seen any invoices?"
"Take it to any watch shop and ask it, if it's fake, I'll eat it in front of you, are you satisfied?"
Ye Dongqing replied, there was a traffic jam on the road, the horn sounded one after another, and continued to speak in a pretended British tone: "The price of this watch is more than 30,000 US dollars, it is our first cooperation, and I will give you a meeting gift."
Now it's time to move on to the next business, $30,000 doesn't show the strength of my team, or you can add some leverage? I'll help you launder them and put them in your daughters' accounts, and everything is ready to go. ”
“...... I've already thought about it, how long will it take to wash it off if I give you $100,000 in cash this time?"
"I've been taking other jobs recently, so I'll help you deal with it as soon as I get the money, and it can be turned into clean money in two days."
Rest assured, I know you have more cash to launder, and when your financial advisor takes more than $100,000, everyone knows that I am a reputable middleman. ”
Ye Dongqing said this with a smile.
Old Sam didn't believe him, and was only willing to squeeze toothpaste a little bit to give him money to wash his name. It's not surprising to be cautious, it involves $100,000 in cash, which is not a small amount, and the other party did not ask for a face-to-face transaction, which has already surprised Ye Dongqing.
"I don't know if others know your credibility, anyway, I haven't heard of you before, this time it's 100,000 dollars, how much is the commission?" asked Old Sam.
"It's still 25 percent, and I can't make much money if it's small, and it will cost a lot of money just to deal with people in the tax bureau, and my colleagues have a lot of appetite.
I understand that you are not at ease with me, and I will give you a happy answer, once the amount exceeds one million dollars, I will only charge 20% of the extra money. No one in New York offers less than me, and their reputation is not as good as mine, so if they swallow your money, there is no way to get it back, OK?"
It was both a negotiation and a temptation, Ye Dongqing wanted to know how much cash the old man was hiding in his hand, judging from the number of rooms in the apartment, it should not be too little.
Old Sam didn't know much about this business, so he was determined to take out up to $100,000 each time, and after confirming that it had entered his daughter's account, he would give the next sum of money, which was not a high risk, and he would lose up to $100,000.
Compared with the huge inheritance tax, it is worth taking a risk and betting, but Ye Dongqing is not wrong, but if you change it to someone else to help launder money, can you believe it?
He said to Ye Dongqing over the phone: "Okay, come over and get the money in the evening, I'll go prepare now, and call me in advance to inform me before I come."
Don't be black-hearted, and don't think about kidnapping me or my daughters, I just discussed with my friend that if something happens to me and my family, he will tell the police where my money is hidden, and you won't get anything. So...... Just according to the commission you said, 25% of the commission, you can get 250,000 dollars for washing 1 million, it's better than risking being caught by the police and not getting the money yet, you are a smart person, I believe you know what I mean. ”
Ye Dongqing wanted to laugh after hearing this, he didn't think that the old man would have the courage to tell others where his money was hidden, but he still followed the other party's words and said:
"You save money, I make money, it's a business that's good for everyone, why should I have trouble with Franklin? Then it's decided, I'll send someone to get the money at night, you just need to give him the money, don't ask ...... more"
