***********

"So, then, it's your father's daughter from his father's French lover who is in trouble with you?"

Li Yifan's mind couldn't help but flash the figure of the black-haired beauty he saw in the villa in Vegas that day and disappeared immediately after getting off the off-road vehicle and shaking around.

"Yes, that's her."

At the mention of that woman, Heidi couldn't help but grit her teeth, but no matter who it was, she would not have a good impression of someone who wanted her own life.

"So, your dad must be running out of time, and he has left you a large inheritance?"

Li Yifan said to Heidi with a playful smile on the corner of his mouth, such a plot of grievances between wealthy families has been staged countless times, whether on TV or in reality.

In recent years, the most famous is probably the son-in-law of the Yangcheng people, the Australian media tycoon Murdoch, and in a few years, the property dispute case of the richest woman surnamed Gong in Xiangjiang will break out.

Such plots can be said to be common in this shijie, but they don't happen all the time.

"I don't know much about this, but after I learned some information about my biological father, I also checked this character through some means, and he is indeed dying now."

Heidi's eyes were a little dim, although her biological father had not fulfilled any fatherly responsibilities to her over the years, but after all, it was her biological father, and she still had a strong curiosity about that man.

"Oh? Tell me, who is he? ”

Li Yifan also captured Heidi's desire to talk. It just so happened that he was also gossiping. So I asked Heidi about it.

"Huh. Speaking of my biological father, his background is not simple, he is the Duke of Leroy, and he has a close relationship with the Belgian royal family, according to the information from my sources in Europe, it is said that he is likely to be the illegitimate son of the previous king of Belgium, but he has always kept a low profile in Belgium, and he has a good relationship with the current king of Belgium. And his background relationship is also quite complicated. His mother was French, while his grandmother was English, and it is said that he had a very close relationship with the English royal family......"

"Hiss......"

Hearing this, Li Yifan couldn't help but gasp, this Duke of Leroy looks really not small!

Don't underestimate these dukes or anything, although now these ancient European nobles seem to have declined in front of the common people of Europe, but they just have such a ceremonial title, and they don't actually have any rights or anything like that, but anyone who knows Europe knows it. These people are definitely not as simple as they appear to be.

Despite the two Shijie wars, the old order in Europe has been shattered. But these noble lords have not disappeared, but they no longer stand in front of the stage as before, but have moved behind the scenes.

In the shijie of the West, where capital reigns, they can still live a free life with the family wealth accumulated by their ancestors for generations, and with the company and power passed down from their ancestors, they are still one of the most important components of power in Europe behind the scenes.

Especially in small countries like Belgium, the Netherlands, Denmark, or Luxembourg, where many nobles from overthrown kingdoms lived after the pandemic of republican ideas.

Among those people, some people have no ability and sink into decline, while others are shrewd, and with the accumulation of their ancestors, they will soon return to the top of the pyramid of power.

Behind every conspiracy on the European continent, there is no shortage of shadows of these aristocratic lords.

"I'm afraid that the wealth left to you by your biological father is not simple."

Li Yifan said thoughtfully, it must be like this, otherwise Heidi's cheap sister, who has never met, would not have traveled thousands of miles to Canada to kill people.

"It should be so, you must know that my biological father, although he has always kept a low profile in Belgium, is one of the presidents of the Antwerp Craftsman Association, and he is said to have a very close relationship with De Beers, and is said to have a certain stake in De Beers, and even in France he has considerable influence, especially in Monaco, where he has many friends......"

Hearing Heidi say this, Li Yifan already felt a little toothache, grandma, I knew that Heidi's biological father was not simple, but now I heard Heidi say this, her cheap father, this is worth it?

What is that place in Antwerp? Where is known as the Shijie diamond capital, and now is the golden age of Antwerp, ten years later their business will be robbed by India and Xiangjiang, but now is the most proud time of the city of Antwerp, people dare to claim that three-quarters of the Shijie diamond trading volume are processed in Antwerp.

And Heidi's biological father is actually one of the presidents of the Antwerp Craftsman Association, which shows the influence of this guy in Antwerp and even Belgium, and even in the Shijie diamond industry.

You must know that there are more than 1,500 diamond processing companies in Antwerp, but most of them are small handicraft workshops, and there are only a few large companies that really have energy, and his father can become the president of the association, which means that he has at least one large diamond processing company in his hands.

You must know that the same as the diamond mining industry, this diamond processing is also a profiteering industry, now India and Xiangjiang are still trying to catch up, a few years later in this industry, there will be a lot of job opportunities to pass away, for no other reason, that is, because the processing competitiveness of Xiangjiang and India is too cruel, people's labor is really too cheap.

And Heidi said that his father actually has a very close relationship with De Beers, and may even be a shareholder of this company!

Is this news still good?

What kind of company is De Beers, this is simply the Rockefeller of the diamond industry, a giant. That's what describes a company like this.

The diamond mining industry in the whole shijie. One family monopolizes half of it. It can be said that it is more thorough than the monopoly of Rockefeller in the oil industry.

And other people's industries are called pure profiteering industries, just a few small stones, can make the women of Shijie crazy.

Ten years later, after China produced countless people who got rich, the international price of diamonds would skyrocket with its value preservation, and it was not Rockefeller or the like who really hid behind it and made a fortune at that time. It's this De Beers Diamonds company.

If people's annual profits are calculated, they really won't necessarily make less than those international energy giants.

It's just that because of the company's mysterious background, there has been little information about the company's finances, but Li Yifan, who often deals with the British MI5 and MI6, knows it.

This De Beers company has a British background, but the company's major shareholders are all rich and noble figures in Britain and even Europe, and most of them are a group of people with noble titles in the early days, not to mention in Britain, even in the whole of Europe.

And Heidi's father may be a shareholder of this company, just for this. Her sister, who she hadn't met, had a reason. Thousands of miles away to kill her.

What's more, the third point that Heidi said surprised Li Yifan even more, her cheap dad is still close to Monaco, so what is Monaco?

It is one of the three major gambling cities on Shijie, and unlike Xiangjiang and Vegas, where to do is definitely high-end business, in Las Vegas and Macau, when they are still trying their best to pull ordinary people's business, people are already doing their best, in contact with the big guys in Europe and where the rich people in the Middle East are carnivaling.

It is a small country with an area of only 1.2 square kilometers, but it is the place with the highest concentration of rich people on Shijie.

What is Monaco's most imported goods every year, many people may not think about it, the country's largest import and export goods every year is the US dollar!

That's right, the most imported and exported goods are dollars!

While becoming the most famous gambling house in Europe, there are also countless sordid transactions where secrets are born, and there are no less things to see the light of day, such as intrigues, tricks, money laundering, etc.

A lot of the under-the-table deals of European conspiracies were done in that magical place in Monaco, and Heidi's dad was actually close to the Monaco side.

I believe that even if there are no previous two, just by virtue of this one, her cheap sister has a full reason to kill her, because even if it is Li Yifan himself, she feels that she can't be tempted by such a reason......

"Okay, let's not think about it so much, let's think about how we can get out of here."

Seeing that Heidi's state was a little absent-minded, obviously most of her thoughts were on her biological father and the sister who had never met but wanted her life, Li Yifan quickly persuaded her thoughts back.

"How to get there? Can't we just keep a low profile here for a while? ”

Heidi also knows how difficult it is to escape from Los Angeles during this time, I am afraid that in the next few weeks, the scope of Los Angeles will not stop, those underworld and the police, will have to turn the city upside down, and it is not easy to escape from here during this time.

In fact, this is not a bad idea, but there are still risks, after all, the Mexican black @ gang here is not vegetarian, in case they find it here, it will be troublesome.

They are different from the police, they talk about evidence in everything, as long as they see you suspicious, they have always followed the principle of killing you first, anyway, one or two lives are nothing in their eyes.

And the other point is that Li Yifan doesn't want to hide here, the contract with Edmund is still more than a week to be completed, and he recently received a call from Uncle Andy, that is, he told him not to play too much, so that he forgot the contract at that time, and told him to go back as soon as possible and prepare, so Li Yifan didn't have time to spend here at all.

"Then the only way is to take the water."

Li Yifan frowned and said to Heidi, Los Angeles and Vancouver are both located on the west coast of the North American continent, and they are close to the Pacific Ocean, so the most convenient way to transport these 'goods' from Los Angeles is to take the sea route.

Don't even think about it in the air, so many rich people X-ray sweep, you will be all exposed, not to mention the land route, it is estimated that the road out of Los Angeles is now full of police and gangsters set up by the checkpoints, so only the sea route is the safest.

"But we don't have much resources for sea routes?"

Heidi felt a little confused and said to Li Yifan.

"I'll figure this out, and you'll just be responsible for solving the problem."

In the afternoon of the same day, Heidi, accompanied by Danny, rented a freighter of more than 1,000 tons in the port of the sand shaker, loaded several containers of purchased goods, all of which were some children's clothes, as well as cotton, as well as some food, as well as sugar and salt, and looked like a general department store wholesaler, and the money was put into a sealed bag full of air by Li Yifan.

The main enemies of their line of work are the U.S. Coast Guard, the Anti-Smuggling Smuggling Team, and the Canadian Marine Police.

The sea road is so wide that the Mexicans and Albanians, no matter how powerful they are, can't completely block the waterway.

As long as they are in the sea, they can swim completely unhindered, completely unafraid of each other's tracking.

However, Li Yifan also knew that things would definitely not be so simple, even if he escaped those black gangs, he would have the US coast guard and anti-smuggling team to deal with.

And some of these people may be bought by those Mexicans, so you have to be very careful along the way.

This freighter was chartered by Heidi's uncle, and it belonged to a small company that specialized in freight transportation between the United States and Canada, and it also operated some small businesses, in fact, it was originally a cover shell, and it used to be specialized in smuggling business between the United States and Canada.

Therefore, the shipowner is very talkative, especially after taking their full oil and water, he is very cooperative, and he does not care about their cargo.

On this day, the wind and rain on the sea were very strong, and even as soon as they left the port, God gave them a dismount, a few feet high, and the huge waves were a few feet high, so that a few landlubbers who did not have much sailing experience suffered enough.

However, several of them have suffered enough, but there is also a side benefit, that is, in this kind of weather, the US coast guard generally does not patrol too often.

Sure enough, there was nothing to do overnight, and the next day they arrived at the junction of the waters of the United States and Canada, as long as it was a little bit up to Canada, and Vancouver could be said to be Canada's closest city to the United States in the Pacific region, and if there was no accident, they could go home in a few hours.
