It's late in the evening, and the Canary is already packed, and despite the raging hurricane, the Michelin-starred restaurant for the upper class of Gotham City has access to fresh ingredients – as is the case in adult society, where nothing is impossible as long as you have money.

Robert Cullen was originally a standard American middle class, just like the middle-aged man who served as a cover model in various watches and sports car magazines, with a happy and harmonious family, busy work and high positions in the company, mature and rich experience, always with a confident smile on his face, and often haunted high-end consumer places, chatting and laughing with those "big guys" and playing golf.

And now, years in prison and the betrayal of his wife have completely crushed him, his face is covered with vicissitudes of life, the beer belly that has lost exercise is towering, and the eyes have lost their brightness, leaving only hollowness and numbness.

He was dressed in a modest suit, his hair was clearly cleaned and trimmed, and the watch on his wrist was almost the only thing of value—a souvenir he had bought with his wife on a trip to the Champs-Elysées in Paris a long time ago.

At that time, the wife had not yet fallen in love with her tender, affectionate, damn Latin dance instructor....

Robert thought that now his wife was lying in the arms of Little White Face, and he was deprived of custody because he had been in prison and was currently unemployed, and he could only exercise his visitation rights once in a few months to see his little daughter.

He immediately turned his grief and anger into appetite, picked up the champagne glass, swallowed the wine in one gulp, wiped his lips with the cuffs of his suit without any image, and made a "tsk" sound while savoring the taste of champagne that he hadn't drunk for a long time.

"Restrain yourself, Robert!" Jimmy, who was sitting next to him, tugged at the placket of his shirt under the table, "For the sake of the 'Pink Rose' striptease hall escort lady, I don't want you to be drunk and full of nonsense by the time Mr. Leon arrives!" ”

"Aha, Pink Rose, I've never been to that place since I got out of prison," Robert patted his out-of-shape belly self-deprecatingly, and said with a smile, "Because I'm penniless now, and I still live on the couch at my childhood friend's house, and live on fast food pizza every day." ”

His voice was a little louder, attracting condemning and curious glances from the diners next to him, Jimmy smiled at them awkwardly and apologetically, and turned to Robert in a cold tone and said, "You also know that you are sending people under the fence?" I've wanted to kick you out for a long time, you damn bastard,

Now I'm risking the displeasure of my employer to give you a chance, a chance to regain your own business, and you-him-mother-of-the-other best seize it, or I swear to God, I'll shove your head into your own ** with a toilet plug in the toilet. ”

Jimmy's threat paid off, and Robert raised his hands slightly to show that he had surrendered, put his glass down honestly, and asked softly, "By the way, old man, what is the identity of your employer, don't tell me, he is just an ordinary Chinese immigrant teenager." ”

"Don't ask what you shouldn't know, you know?" Jimmy said indifferently: "You just need to know that he just hired me and can pay me $20,000 for his services, and now he is even paying me $3,500 a week, just for the sake of these lovely Franklins, even if he is a serial killer and a ruthless drug dealer, I will contract him to destroy the body and sell the stolen goods." ”

Robert pursed his lips and said indifferently: "I don't ask for much, as long as the monthly salary offered by this generous boss can allow me to buy a used car that can be used and I can go to see my daughter a little decently." ”

"Shhh

When Leon came, he deliberately wore a suit, walked into the canary restaurant and waved hello to Jimmy who stood up, and walked over leisurely and indifferently.

"Presumably you're the personal financial advisor that Jimmy recommended to me, Mr. Robert Cullen?"

"Yes, it's an honor to meet you, Mr. Leon." Robert immediately stood up, giving full play to his personal charm in the wealth management institution, and shook Leon elegantly and confidently in Jimmy's ghostly eyes, "It's just that I didn't expect that you are really as young as Jimmy describes." ”

"Ha, strictly speaking, I'm over 2,000 years old now, but in the eyes of Europeans and Americans, Chinese people look younger no matter what they look like." Li Ang pulled out a chair and sat down indifferently, and said, "Anyway, I just distributed canned instant food at the non-profit organization, and I haven't had time to drink a sip of water yet, if you two don't mind, you can order food?" ”

"Absolutely." Jimmy smiled flatteringly, called the waiter to order, and took advantage of the meal to enthusiastically introduce Robert's resume information to Leon in three dimensions, including but not limited to the prestigious university he graduated from, the big orders he had made, and what a good rate of return he had won for customers.

When he introduced, Robert also told some anecdotes and funny jokes he encountered in wealth management institutions, and the three of them talked and laughed and waited for the meal to be served.

Leon raised his knife and fork to cut the meat chops on the porcelain plate, pretending to look up casually and said with a smile: "Robert, please tell me if you have dealt with the legal issue of a large amount of property for a previous customer?" I have a netizen who has concerns about this. ”

Three million dollars can still be used to prevaricate the anti-money laundering department with the reason of winning in the casino, but the huge dollar bills and gold nuggets in the private warehouse are not so easy to get out, and Leon wants to see what good advice the private financial adviser has.

“.... Huge property. Robert's eyes narrowed, he knew that the highlight of this dinner was coming, after all, it was about whether he could make a comeback and return as a king, so he immediately put down the knife and fork, pressed his two arms on the table, and said softly: "Oh, I have a little experience, there are many ways to deal with wealth and make those Franklins legal, I don't know if that netizen of yours has a not very safe amount of cash on hand." ”

Li Ang waved his hand in a good manner, "That's right. ”

"That's easy." Robert said with a smile: "You can suggest that your friends contract a few cheap dry cleaners, car washes, small shopping malls, small gas stations, such places have a lot of cash flow and are easy to deal with accounting problems." And coincided with the impact of the hurricane, many cities on the West Coast were severely affected, and the prices of contracted shops were even cheaper, and it didn't take more than half a year to get rid of his worries, and he could also earn him the name of a young entrepreneur.

Of course, this is just dealing with the immediate problem, I am a professional financial advisor who can tailor life plans for employers, from teenagers to middle age to old age, I can ensure that your friend's wealth path will be unimpeded. ”

"Sounds great," Leon swallowed the three ripe steaks, wiped the fresh blood from the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and said to Robert with a smile, "I want to hire you to be my personal financial advisor, I don't know if you are interested." ”

Robert held his breath, at this moment he had no time to worry about the identity of the Chinese teenager in front of him, whether he was a devil who demagogically lured people to the wrong path of crime, and there was only one thought left in his mind: seize the damn opportunity in front of him.

"It's an honor to serve you, you won't be disappointed."

"I'm looking forward to it."
