With the arrival of February, Los Angeles is also the coldest time of the year, and while this temperature is still nothing for New York State and Seattle, it is enough for many Californians to complain. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

With the continuous development of the global economy, the status of the West Coast is gradually comparable to that of the East Coast, and California's GDP is comparable to the world's eighth largest economy with the rise of Silicon Valley. But no matter how much the software improves, there is no doubt that this is the western region after all.

The leafy and spring-blooming Los Angeles-San Diego coast and the vast desert and Gobi region of Las Vegas, Nevada, are just separated by a Pacific Coast mountain range. The most emblematic of these is the San Gabriel Mountains, which stretch from Newhall Pass to Cahoe Pass in southern California for about 60 miles, with many peaks above 9,000 feet above sea level, and its highest point, San Antonio, is 10,000 feet above sea level.

Such a strip of land is right behind Los Angeles.

As can be seen from the satellite map, the world-famous Beverly Hills, a wealthy area of the coastal city of Los Angeles, stretches east-west from the coastal mountains in the north to the interior of the plains. Burbank, the seat of North Hollywood and Universal Pictures, is separated from the greater Los Angeles city by a canyon from the San Gabriel Mountains to the north.

Figuratively speaking, it is like the Central Plains of the Han Dynasty in China, like Xinjiang, which was sandwiched by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau with a narrow passageway.

The land that Alice bought was in this area.

Northwest of Los Angeles, Highway 2 leads deep into the mountains, even past the Jet Propulsion Lab, home to 5,000 full-time Caltech employees. The winding road led for miles into the mountains, and then in a wooded field more than five hundred yards from the road, guests were welcomed today.

A military Humvee roars wildly through unadorned dirt roads, traversing any difficult terrain with ease. Finally, when it came to a slow stop in a clearing, the wheels were emitting billowing smoke and dust all around!

"Wow, it's really enjoyable!"

The passenger door opened, and Alice jumped from it.

"This is the charm of off-roading, how about it, when you are 16 years old, are you interested in buying a Hummer and driving it?"

Stepping out of the driver's seat, it was Maiya.

"Hehe, let's talk about this later, let's take a look at our results first~"

Alice folded her hands on her hips as if her host was welcoming the guests, and proudly introduced Maiya to Maiya.

In the middle of this clearing, in front of another forest, a three-story wooden house with an area of no more than 10,000 square feet stands proudly!

"Really...... Amazing!"

Maiya took off her sunglasses and looked at this unusually large wooden structure with a pair of dark eyes with a sigh: "Are you sure that this was started in December last year?

"Money can make ghosts grind, as the secret base of our SOS regiment, this cost is nothing at all~"

"But it's a ...... after all Thirty thousand, Alice, thirty thousand square feet of total area, and you must have built a basement, right?"

Looking at Maiya's almost obsessive expression, Alice naturally felt extremely proud: "As long as there are enough people, it's okay, anyway, Microsoft will go public in March, even if it's a loan, it's not a big deal." It's a pity that Sissi and Ashley are now back to visit relatives in Europe, if we call them too, we can just play picnic~"

Maimi thinks a lot more than that, anyway, it's a seventeen-year-old girl, or a friend who has been messing around with Alice, an undisciplined girl for two years, but she knows that someone can't build such a big guy just for a picnic.

"You're not going to want to learn Moonlight, are you?" or Texas Chainsaw Massacre?"

Alice tilted her head: "Hmm~ Maimi, you really deserve to be my good friend, you can come up with such interesting ideas." It doesn't feel good, or else, you can ask your dad to buy some equipment right away, right? Don't use firearms, murderers or something, use all kinds of strange cold weapons~"

Maiya chuckled, ignored her, and walked directly into the wooden villa.

To be reasonable, Alice certainly hasn't had the energy to do anything about the renovation yet, but the basic tables, chairs, furniture and hammocks are ready. Maiya entered the house and immediately looked at the ground staff, and found that all the wood had been coated with paint and insect spray, and the basic protection was very meticulous.

"See this fireplace? Like the kitchen, the slightest stone material in the house is basically here. In the future, in the winter, we can come here from time to time to hunt for game, and then have a fireside barbecue, then drink beer, listen to jazz music, and maybe watch satellite TV. ”

Maiya stared at the fireplace, thinking that Alice did have plans to open the fireplace for a barbecue, and the floor of the stove was not made of wood, but a bed-sized open space made of smooth marble. Even if grease drips on it, it's easy to clean.

Looking around at Maiya, Alice also introduced with great interest: "For example, the Super Bowl is a great opportunity." Set up a couple of roe deer in the fireplace, then beer skewers with potato chips......"

"Tell me the truth, Alice, what the hell is the purpose?"

In this way, Alice instantly stuck: "...... How do you know?"

Maiya smiled lightly: "The house that was secretly built as early as December last year, until Ashley and Sissi returned to Europe together three days ago, and then you happened to tell me this secret yesterday, isn't there some special purpose?"

Alice blinked her big blue eyes and looked at the heroic short-haired girl in front of her.

Then, she slapped Maiya on the shoulder: "Good sister, keep it secret~"

Maimi smiled slightly: "Stop and go all the way, Daqi's yacht should be in Thailand's territorial waters in three days, and my father has become your middleman, what is this secret?"

After saying that, she smiled again: "Right, boss?"

"Ahem, then I'll be honest. ”

Dragged two chairs and sat down with Maiya, Alice's face turned pale and became serious: "You also know that I went to Albuquerque last month, right?"

Maiya nodded: "So, you want Daqi to transport goods from the Golden Triangle?"

"Wow, your imagination is pretty good. ”

Alice was a little surprised, but of course she was very happy that her friend could think so far: "But do you think it's realistic to let him have a torpedo boat that travels between the Golden Triangle and the continental United States every day?"

"So what?"

"Local affairs, solve them locally, I want to refine a large amount of ice gambling here, and then send it to Albuquerque to earn some extra blocks, what do you think?"

That's a bit too surprising.

Maiya couldn't help but feel a feeling of bruises on her forehead: "This kind of business, even if it is achieved in a world-class category, the annual profit is only hundreds of millions, right?

"I do need to save some cash now, that's number one. Although Daqi is also profitable, he has only just arrived in Thailand until now, and it will be a long time before his career becomes a climate. One more thing, well, in fact, I have a great dream~"

Alice was happy: "Pornography, gambling and drugs are better than being blocked, and there are things that have not been extinguished for thousands of years, but they can't just be suppressed." My dream is to control the flow of drugs around the world as much as possible, so as to prevent more people from being victimized, what do you think?"

Maiya didn't answer immediately, she was just a seventeen-year-old girl after all. Even if she has a pair of toned long legs that can kick out taekwondo, this kind of brain-using thing can only be understood by her using her brain.

"With your nurturing every day, I can also imagine that Microsoft and Cisco have as much development potential after going public, and they are also successful in the climate, and you are indeed not short of a little money for drug trafficking. So, if you say that you are selling drugs for the sake of drug control, I can accept it. ”

She crossed her fingers and stood on the wooden table with her elbows crossed, and said silently, "You are telling me this because you want to pull me along, right?" But you must give me a plan that works, or you will be my good friend...... I can only promise not to call the police. After all, this is two different natures from simply letting Daqi smuggle, not to mention that this is still in China. ”

"Of course that's fine, I can give you the blueprint, but Maiya...... Do you know what I'm telling you to do here?"

Maiya smiled lightly again, without the cover of sunglasses, and the cold and handsome eyes under the sword eyebrows exuded a strong neutral charm: "Don't you still have a plan to set up that Blackwater Security Company?" I don't understand the position of CEO, but if I can be admitted to West Point, it must be more than enough, right?"

West Point ......

Earlier, when the SOS group was discussing their futures, Maiya said this, which scared everyone's jaws off.

Ashley even said enviously at the time: "Typical men are more women than women, and they are all macho men! Maiya I'm really envious, let's swap!"

Ahem.

"When the Black Reef trade develops, we will take this aspect of the business forward. ”

Alice said: "Blackwater is directly responsible for escorting Blackreef, although it doesn't even have a shape now, it doesn't prevent us from planning it. Maimi, I'm quite optimistic about you, I'm going to start the exam next year, if you can't pass the West Point exam, I'm going to beat your ass!"

Maiya snorted and held out her finger.

"Don't worry. ”

As he spoke, he flicked Alice's forehead lightly. (To be continued.) )
