Chapter 082: The Battle of the Covenant
Shi Hu deliberately left to coax the woman, and Legrand's chips were already fifty million. There was also a duel between two people at the table, and after a few wins and losses, a thrilling scene occurred: Legrand, desperate to win, almost called his opponent's all-in. Fortunately, he stopped in time, otherwise the future would be unpredictable.
Even Legrand's skill is not guaranteed to win - this time he is playing with his life, and he will either win or die. Unlike Shi Hu, who can completely see through his opponent's hole cards, even if his current opponent only has 10 million chips left, he is also scared.
Gambling, for the mathematically proficient Legrand, was too scary to swing, but unfortunately the rules didn't give an exit - the only way to exit was to fold and brush the blinds again and again until the chips were emptied. Referring to the Shi Hu who left, there are now millions gone.
Ten minutes later, Shi Hu finally came back, absentmindedly playing cards, killing the redundant players in a few clicks, and after playing a few more hands, he was forced to go all-in in a crucial game, Legrand called, and after the hole cards were turned over, Shi Hu lost all his chips. Legrand took more than 100 million in bets.
After the game, he went to meet Shi Hu late at night.
In the early hours of the morning, Legrand and his girlfriend disembarked from the ship on the island of Cozumel (Mexico) and took a plane out of the Americas, catching the CIA agents off guard as they tried to adjust their response strategy. By the time they reacted, Legrand was already on a flight to France.
As for the agreement reached between Legrand and Shi Hu, it is that Shi Hu owes Shi Hu a loan of 60 million US dollars, and the principal and interest will be repaid after three years, with an annual interest rate of 12%, and Legrand itself is money laundering, so there is no tax problem here. Overall, a return of 12% is a sound investment.
Referring to Shihu Investment Hotel, 80 million US dollars, is there 12% a year? No, I'm afraid it's not even 6%, and in the end, taxes and fees have to be counted. If you have too much cash on hand, you can also consider letting Legrand manage your money, but unlike borrowing, the customer has to bear a certain amount of risk.
Finally, there is the issue of credibility.
Although Legrand did not open a bank, credit is the most important thing in this business. If you don't have credit, you don't have customers, and customers are often not easy to mess with - refer to this time. Shi Hu is not worried that he is playing missing, Legrand is playing IQ not force, unless he is really tired.
……
Legrand took $88 million, and in addition to the 60 million loan, he had to transfer the rest back, and after deducting the commission and the middleman's labor expenses, he received 25 million. Coupled with Shi Hu's 40 million principal, there is very little pressure to buy a luxury house, and Natalia still has to fulfill her promise.
She is also refreshing and recommends it directly to the bag bearer.
The European high roller's bag bearer then contacted Shi Hu and discussed the details with him in detail.
In fact, the gamblers are not exclusively Russian, mainly Europeans, some wealthy Russian businessmen, and some wealthy European gamblers - they are a bit shrewd, do not play with the dealer, and only like the poker game where the player plays against the player. You can gamble and make friends.
The bag bearer welcomes Shi Hu to play cards, and also gives two plans: one is to wait for the news, after there are enough players, the bag bearer will bring them together to provide thoughtful competitive services; The second is that he takes the initiative to make an appointment to attract players to fight, but the funds must be large.
You spend $10 million on a war and you're not much interested, but if it's 100 million, it's completely different.
Shi Hu does not have 100 million ...... Finally, I had to bow to Sandra.
Sandra smiled with a sly smile: "100 million in cash? Quite a bit. ”
"There is a 15% profit share." Stone Tiger pendulum benefits.
"I'm not short of investment projects at the moment." Sandra pretended to think about it. In fact, 15% is already a very rare investment, and it is more profitable than the stock market.
Shi Hu was under the eaves and had to bow his head: "Say, what conditions?" ”
"I like to be crisp." Sandra nodded, her eyes rolling: "Three conditions - of course it won't make you too embarrassed and unable to choose." ”
"Three?" Shi Hu thought about it, and could only agree: "Three is three!" ”
She said: "First, don't take risks in the future, use your brains more, the black world is more dangerous than you think." ”
"No problem." Shi Hu nodded, knowing that she was still worried about what was ahead, and she almost grabbed the prey with the CIA head-on. It's not a condition, it's just her concern.
"Second ......" She looked at Shi Hu and smiled slyly: "Within half a year, you can't talk to me about divorce!" ”
"No problem, during the marriage, I will guarantee loyalty." That's not a problem for him either.
"Third...... I'll keep it for now, and I'll talk about it when I think about it. She said.
"Can't you just order it?" Shi Hu frowned.
"100 million dollars." She has no fear.
"It's just fifty million!" Shi Hu was annoyed, but who let him beg someone, and the begging person was his grandson: "Okay, okay, I'll mention it when you have an idea." ”
"Happy working together!" She high-fived him.
……
After the cruise ship returns, Natalia and them go their separate ways.
Shi Hu stayed with Sandra in Miami. She spent more than 5 million yuan to buy a mansion in the local area, located on an artificial island in the inner bay, with a luxurious swimming pool and marina, surrounded by greenery, beautiful scenery, next to the golf course, and the vast sea outside.
Shi Hu also earned the dignity of a man, buying a Ferrari 360-Spider roadster, a Mercedes-Benz GL-Class full-size SUV, and a $1.4 million Riva yacht, 44 feet (13 meters) long, open deck. Riva is a top brand in the yacht and is rarely in stock.
Unlike other multi-storey mid-size yachts, the Riva yacht is small and more suitable for couples to enjoy an undisturbed environment, with sofas and sunbathing mats in pairs, in line with Sandra's requirements: the man drives the boat and she leans back on the sofa to enjoy a glass of wine.
"One more cute pet would be perfect!" Sandra leaned against him to look at the sea.
Shi Hu put his arm around her: "If you like it, you can go and buy it, there are many pet stores nearby." ”
She shook her head: "But I don't have much time to take it, pet dogs are not children, and it is very troublesome to enter and exit." ”
Shi Hu didn't pick it up, and besides, it might be the child's problem...... She seemed to feel it too, and smiled away: "What do we eat at night?" ”
"Restaurant." Shi Hu said.
"No, no, that's not the answer I want." She shook her head repeatedly.
However, she is currently Shi Hu's creditor, so she can only bow her head: "Then what do you want?" ”
She put her arms around him and depicted, "Right at home, just a candlelit dinner for the two of us." ”
"Get rid of your assistants and bodyguards?" Shi Hu asked.
She was a little strange, but nodded: "Let them go and rest." ”
"Do you know how to cook?" Shi Hu's second question.
"Hmm......" she muttered, "no." ”
"Shall we eat candles, then?"
"Haha!" She laughed and hit him: "Why can't you let me be romantic for a few more minutes?" It's only a matter of minutes! ”
But in the end, they still ate it, and he didn't understand whether there was romance or not, and there was embarrassment. Shi Hu is not a cooking material, and he is not familiar with the practice of Western food, not to mention Sandra, the young lady who comes to reach out for food to open her mouth, in addition to being sophisticated and mature...... Don't ask for too much.
The women that men fantasize about are: good-looking, virtuous, rich and good at laundry and cooking.
But that's a fairy tale.
However, she also has a place for Shi Hu to learn, not to mention things, it takes age and experience to accumulate. The most realistic question, how to drive the yacht when it arrives in a few days? Shi Hu had no idea where to start. Sandra taught him a lesson, she doesn't have an American yacht license, but she is skilled.
Shi Hu watched the yacht turn around in the narrow canal and couldn't help asking, "Is it really good to drive without a license?" ”
Sandra, who was standing on the yacht, smiled: "So you were scared too?" ”
Shi Hu let go of the hand holding the seat and argued: "I just don't want to...... Died in vain. ”
"Don't underestimate me." Sandra smugly, "In Colombia before, I drove a yacht and raced with the coast guard. ”
"And then?" He asked.
"Later? What else, the police were warned not to chase me in the future. She understated.
"You're amazing." Shi Hu understood, she was the king over there.
"I later learned I was wrong." She said.
"This ......" Shi Hu was speechless, can knowing his mistakes improve him?
Sandra drove the yacht out to sea and turned back and said, "I'll teach you how to drive?" ”
"Okay." Shi Hu is interested, there is nothing he can't learn, let alone yachts are so fun.
"It's simpler than a car, the steering wheel and the engine control lever are mastered, and it's basically no problem to play in the offshore......" She stood behind Shi Hu and taught her by hand.
"Can you not hug it so tightly?" Shi Hu turned around, and she hugged herself behind her back, and her movements were very intimate.
"Listen to me, learn a little." She grabbed his ass to take advantage, but said seriously: "Now that I'm your teacher, don't think about it." ”
