On Broadway in New York in the twenties and thirties, when it comes to watching musical and dance dramas, it is natural to choose the rich show of Siegfried Song and Dance Troupe, watching those young and beautiful girls wearing exaggerated and gorgeous costumes, singing and dancing on the stage, through their singing and dancing, interpreting interesting stories, which can definitely bring people a whole night of enjoyment.

However, some of the gaudy Adel were not interested in this kind of musical, although the girls who were personally selected by the founder of the troupe, Florence Siegfried, were indeed very good-looking, but ...... They are wearing too much, and they are covered so tightly that they can't even see their calves, what's the point?

If he had to choose, he would have preferred to go to the Teatro Pican tonight, where the show was performed by the Moulin Rouge dance company from Paris, and they brought their best cancan to New York. Kangkang dance is good, men like it, the beauties will pick up their skirts on the stage, and then they will pick up their skirts, and every time they expose their thighs and bottoms, how exciting?

It's a pity that Bella doesn't like what he likes to watch, and this woman is very tough, and in the end, Adel can only give up his favorite Cancan.

Today is Monday again, this day is a day to celebrate, in the past few days, Bella has contacted a total of 7 investors for Adair, including the earliest to join, Adrati, Ruben and Bella himself, Adair has received a total of 10 investors sponsorship, after giving Ruben and Bella dividends, the remaining funds in his hands totaled $573,600.

It's a crazy time, and anyone who can basically grasp the context of the stock market can quickly find a group of wealthy people who are willing to invest in him after making a few successful trades. Perhaps it is precisely because of this that there are so many stockbroking companies in New York and San Francisco.

With abundant funds, Adel naturally began to implement his plan non-stop, and this afternoon, he had opened an account at the Manhattan Credit Bank and transferred all the funds to this account. He then paid a $500 fee to the bank's business manager, and the Manhattan Credit Bank took care of the rest for him, and he only had three days to get on the board and the bank would take care of all the formalities for him to open a stockbroking.

The Manhattan Credit Bank, the name of this bank may sound atmospheric, is actually just a small bank with a business address on Broad Street, where Broadway and Wall Street meet. Previously, Adel checked the qualifications of this bank, and it has a total of 6 shareholders, the most powerful of which is the Federal Security Bank, and the largest shareholder of the Federal Security Bank is the Bank of Italy, which has just risen from the ashes.

As the opening bank of the brokerage company, the Manhattan Credit Bank will also be the main object of Adair's future dealings, because if he wants to take out a loan, it is also the most convenient and fastest to find this bank.

So, why did Adair choose such a small bank with a small scale and not a strong ability to resist risks as its opening bank? There are three reasons for this:

First, Manhattan Credit Bank's primary business is to lend to short-term credit users, and the bank has lent as much as $47 million in this area over the past two years. In these years, people who paid 2 cents of annual interest to borrow short-term loans were basically stock speculation, which means that the main business of Manhattan Credit Bank was actually concentrated in the stock market. With this point in mind, Adel believes that if he wants to borrow from this bank, it will be easier on the one hand, and the credit line he can get on the other hand will be relatively high.

Second, because it is a small bank, Manhattan Credit Bank is a little more efficient than the big banks, after all, they don't have that much business.

Third, and most important, one of the least inhumane reasons is that small banks like this will be the least resilient to risks in the coming Great Depression, and the main business of Manhattan Credit Bank is focused on stock market lending, so it will be difficult for this bank to escape bankruptcy and collapse once the stock market crashes.

Adair thought very clearly that once the New York stock market crashed in the future, the first thing the Manhattan Credit Bank would do would definitely be to recover all the short-term loans it had lent, and considering that the one-year loan he had borrowed had only been borrowed for less than three months, the bank would be considered a default if he forcibly retracted it, and he could save the interest on the loan for these two months.

In this world, the richer the person, the more stingy he is, the more he will be careful in his calculations, although Adel is not a rich man now, his goal is to be a rich man, so careful calculation is a must.

The name of the stockbrokerage company opened by Adair has now been decided, and he uses his surname to call it "Conlander Stockbroking", and the company has a total of two partners, that is, him and Bella. Bella obviously didn't expect that she could open a company, and it was also a stockbrokerage, for this reason, she was very excited, and watching this musical tonight was a decision she made under the excitement.

It's a pleasure for Bella, but it's torture for Adair. Looking at the well-dressed girls on the stage, singing the opera slowly and methodically in an aria voice, Adel only felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, and the feeling of drowsiness was simply unbearable.

In the midst of this sleepy feeling, Adel suddenly felt a hand reach up to his waist, carefully groping for his belt buckle.

Huo Ran opened his eyes, and through the dim light in the theater, Adel saw that Bella was looking at him with an ambiguous expression, and when she saw that she had opened her eyes, she also put her finger to her mouth and signaled herself not to make a sound.

With a vague premonition of what Bella was going to do, Adel instantly fell asleep, and with a hint of excitement, he turned his head to look around.

There was a large audience in the theater, and although they were in a corner, less than three seats to the right of Adel sat a young lady in a leather hat, and fortunately, almost half of the row of seats to Bella's right was empty.

Holding his breath, Adair made a calm appearance, and leaned back in his chair.

Bella's hands were still moving around his waist, and it didn't take long for her to untie his belt and pull his pants down with force, and then Adel felt her lean over and envelop herself with a warm feeling.

"This elf ......" took a deep breath, and Adel reached out and pressed the back of Bella's head.

......

Coming out of the theater, the time has reached more than ten o'clock in the middle of the night, and the Broadway street at this time is still lit with neon flashes and crowds, but there is a bit of a scene of the city that never sleeps in the future.

Adel took Bella's arm in the crook of his arm and walked all the way back to her residence, New York at night seemed to be less hot than the daytime, but a little more refreshing, and he didn't feel tired all the way.

Just as Adel and Bella walked to the door of the residence, a person who was supposed to be hiding in the shadows suddenly rushed out and blocked directly in front of the two.

"Ahh

Adel stepped forward directly, blocking Bella behind him, and looked at the visitor with a frown.

"It's Mr. Adair, don't worry, I don't mean anything," the person who came was not tall, his face under the top hat looked a little thin, and his eyes looked a little hideous under the light, "I have a business I want to talk to you about, can you give me some time?"

Adel glanced at the other party and found that the other party's hand was always hidden in his arms, and between his chest and abdomen, there was still bulging bulging, obviously hiding something, and most of it was a gun.

"What business?" asked Adel in a calm tone.

"Can't you go in and talk? It's not convenient to talk here. The visitor looked at Adel and said in a cold tone.

Adel hesitated, turned his head to look at Bella, and saw her nodding, before making a gesture of please.

Entering the building with the visitor, this mysterious fellow did not sit directly in the living room according to Adair's invitation, he first stood in the living room and looked around, as if he was observing something, and waited for a while before he walked up to Adel and said, "Is there any outsider here? Don't get me wrong, I just don't want to cause you trouble." ”

"I feel like you've got me in trouble," Adair said calmly as he stood in front of the couch, "Let's just say it, there are only two servants in the house, and Bella will make arrangements." ”

Using this excuse, Adel winked at Bella and told her to go upstairs.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Angelo, Angelo Baird, Mr. Adel should have heard my name," the man's hand finally came out of his bosom, but it was empty, and his chest was still bulging.

"I'm sorry," Adair shook his head and sat down on the couch, a name he hadn't really heard before.

"You've heard of Cole's name, haven't you? Angelo was not surprised, he continued.

"Vincent Cole?" Adel frowned, and he suddenly remembered what Ruben had told him, that there were two outliers in the New York gang, one was "Long Legs" Jack Delmon, and the other was "Mad Dog" Vincent Cole.

"Of course I've heard of Mr. Cole's name, but I don't have much to do with him," and despite his dislike of gangsters, Adel didn't want to offend the guys, so he said it more politely, not by Vincent Cole's nickname.

"There will be a connection soon," Angelo said with a smile.
