Liu Wei's arrival did not surprise the Renault brothers. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Mr. Liu, I didn't expect you to lose to Orel." Big Renault knew that Liu Wei deliberately released the water, but he didn't know the reason. "Presumably, Mr. Liu is not the gambler we are familiar with."
"You're right, I'm not a simple gambler."
Big Renault's brow jumped a few times, and Little Renault wanted to speak, but when he saw that his brother didn't ask, he closed his mouth.
"Strictly speaking, I'm not a gambler because I don't gamble for a living." Liu Wei took out his cigar and looked at the Renault brothers before continuing, "Losing to Orel cost me four billion dollars, but I gained more benefits." I came to find two of you because I wanted to make a deal with them. ”
"What kind of deal?" Big Renault also pulled out a cigar, but it was a Colombian cigar, not a Cuban cigar.
"A deal that makes a lot of money."
"Mr. Liu, do you think we are short of money?" Big Reynolds smiled, looking polite.
"Of course, with your ability, there is definitely no shortage of money, at least not to the point where you need to work for money." Liu Wei smiled and took two puffs of his cigarette, "If I'm not mistaken, you would have been billionaires a long time ago." It's just that in addition to money, there are many things worth pursuing in this world. ”
"For example......"
"For example, make a name in history and let everyone know that you are not just gamblers."
Big Renault frowned, as if he didn't understand Liu Wei's words.
"Do something earth-shattering."
"What's the big deal?" Little Renault spoke, looking interested.
Da Renault glanced at his younger brother, and then turned his gaze to Liu Wei.
"I can't tell you yet, but I can guarantee that it will be done, and it will be earth-shattering." Liu Wei paused slightly, and then said, "Of course, you have to have enough courage and courage, and even prepare for the worst. If you can't put down what you're holding, I'll never be here. ”
"Mr. Liu, you also underestimate our two brothers, right?"
"I don't underestimate you, after all, you are very wealthy, your life is very stable, and you are also a little famous in the casino, so if you were me, you would have some concerns."
Big Renault smiled and said, "For us, these are things outside of the body. Mr. Liu should know that more than 10 years ago we had everything we have now. This kind of life has made us tired of it to the core. If it doesn't change, let alone continue for decades, even a few days will seem like a long time. ”
"So, you're going to go back to the U.S. with me."
The Renault brothers nodded at the same time, indicating that this was what they meant.
"Pack up and go to the United States with my people tomorrow."
"Why not today?"
Liu Wei was stunned for a moment, these two brothers must be in a hurry.
"We don't have anything to pack, and when we get to the United States, we can handle it."
"That's fine, let's go to the airport."
Liu Wei didn't delay any longer, and called the Renault brothers to go to the airport together.
On the way back to Las Vegas, Liu Wei asked Zhou Fen to give a general introduction to the two, but he didn't say it too thoroughly, because Liu Wei didn't think about many specific issues clearly.
The reason for the Renault brothers to go to the United States is naturally to serve as the "gold medal gambling king" of the casino.
Liu Wei has three gaming groups in his hands, which used to be watched by Zhou Fen alone, and more people are needed to cover the field, and it is reasonable to invite two masters from Europe.
When he arrived in Las Vegas, Liu Wei handed over the Renault brothers to Zhou Fen.
Because of the delay in Switzerland for more than ten days, when Liu Wei came back, Dian Bin had already arranged the things here.
The FOS Corps' training camp is on the outskirts of Reno, a farm that covers more than a thousand acres. Originally, it was several farms, but Dian Bin bought them as a Pakistani mercenary and put them together. Because the personnel of the FOS Legion were constantly coming, Dian Bin also used Zhou Yulong's gaming group to set up a security company to carry out training work in the name of providing security personnel for the casino.
As a result, the FOS legionnaires who have completed their training will return to Las Vegas, then take the money given by Dian Bin, travel around the United States, and return a month later to work as casino security guards. As for the mercenaries recruited by Batavia from Pakistan and the mercenaries provided by Srehom, most of them were transferred to the Mobei Wolves and were in charge of the drug business, and only a few remained in Las Vegas and Reno.
Seeing Liu Wei, Dian Bin first mentioned the more than $3 billion he earned from the outside market.
The money was not remitted to Yuan Changqing's account, because the cost of forming the FOS Legion had already been paid, and Yuan Changqing did not need more funds in the short term. All this money was handed over to Li Tingxuan, part of which was used to build the supercomputer needed for genetic analysis, and the rest was used for the construction of the "homeland".
"Lao Li also suggested that we buy a large yacht."
"Yachts?"
"Yes, to deliver supplies to homes. If you rely entirely on air freight, the cost is too high. ”
"How big a yacht do you need?"
"It's not going to be that small." Dian Bin smiled and said, "It is thousands of kilometers from the homeland to the nearest port in Chile, and the voyage is still a secondary issue, and the South Pacific Ocean is turbulent and rough, and only a yacht with a large enough displacement can withstand it." Because of the need to transport all kinds of supplies, the yacht had to be built a little bigger. ”
"Is there a suitable shipyard?"
"There are in China, Lao Li said, if you promise, he will help us contact, and it will be delivered within a year. If you need foreign facilities and equipment, you have to order them in advance, otherwise you will have to delay the construction work. ”
"Do we have enough money?"
"Funding is not an issue, and it is much cheaper to build in the country."
Liu Wei nodded and said, "No problem, you go and arrange it, and strive to get it within a year." ”
Dian Bin didn't say much, and said: "I looked for Long Minjiang and mentioned what you said, he agreed, and is trying to find Johnson." ”
"When will you find him?"
"I don't know, maybe this guy isn't in the United States."
"Then you go to Situ Wenhui and ask her to help find it. Either way, be sure to find him before the FOS Legion is formed. ”
Dian Bin nodded and said, "You have to talk to Lao Li about the retreat in person." ”
"Questions?"
"Of course there is a problem." Dian Bin shook his head with a wry smile and said, "You mentioned this matter, and you are also planning it, Lao Li has asked a few times, so let you determine the action plan as soon as possible." In any case, the retreat route must first be determined before other arrangements can be made. ”
Liu Wei pondered for a while and said, "Okay, when I think about it, I will contact Lao Li." ”
"The sooner the better. In two months, the FOS Legion will be formed, and if you don't want to lose time, you'll have to make up your mind as soon as possible. ”
"I know, but before I do, I have to make a trip to New York."
"What?"
"Field trips."
Dian Bin was stunned for a moment and said, "Do you want me to arrange it?" ”
"No, I'll just take Takeuchi Kotone." Liu Wei smiled and said, "There are still a lot of things on the old jackal's side, you have to cooperate with him." ”
Dian Bin nodded and said, "I'll go find him later." ”
After saying some small things, Dian Bin got up and said goodbye.
Liu Wei stayed in Las Vegas for two days, mainly to deal with some casino matters, and then returned to Reno to inspect the progress of the casino and water playground work.
After dealing with these things, Liu Wei took Takeuchi Qinyin to New York.
This is Liu Wei's third time in New York, the first two times were sightseeing, and this time he plans to stay for ten days and half a month to take a good look at the city.
The focus is on nature on Manhattan Island.
Three days ago, Liu Wei and Kotone Takeuchi took turns driving around Manhattan Island and familiarized themselves with the ground conditions. The two then spent two days in the library to consult New York's urban planning and architectural drawings. Once ready, the two spent another three days doing a comprehensive tour of New York's underground transportation system.
After having an overall impression, Liu Wei began to think deeply.
Obviously, it was not difficult to hide an experimental center that could accommodate several thousand people under the island of Manhattan, but it could not be in one location, but was connected to tunnels by an intricate network of underground pipes and a separate underground transportation system.
If that were the case, it would be a very large project.
The point is here, it is impossible to build such a huge underground facility in absolute secrecy. What's more, the Future Soldier project is only twenty years old at most, and the scale of the project to build an underground experiment center during this period is bound to be enormous, and there are not many projects on Manhattan Island in the meantime. If nothing else, just transporting earth and stone is a very troublesome task.
Of course, there is also the possibility of using existing underground facilities.
The question is, can the underground facilities built more than 100 years ago, or during the Cold War, meet the basic requirements of an experimental center?
If not, additional equipment will have to be added, and large-scale construction will have to be carried out.
Obviously, the experimental center is not necessarily on Manhattan Island.
Besides, there's more to New York than just one island.
In addition to Manhattan Island, there is Staten Island to the south, Long Island to the east, and Roosevelt Island on the East River.
In the next few days, Liu Wei and Takeuchi Kotone explored Staten Island and Long Island. Nothing turned out, and the two islands are also full of buildings, and if there is an experimental center underneath, the scale of the project will not be small.
Is it on Roosevelt Island?
Although Roosevelt Island is much smaller than Manhattan Island, it has no problem accommodating an experimental center, and it was a former U.S. Navy military base, inaccessible to ordinary people, and could transport engineering supplies and scrap by water, as long as it was scheduled to be carried out at night.
Speculation was useless, and after returning to Manhattan Island, Liu Wei decided to go to Roosevelt Island to have a look.
