When a person or group of people has accumulated wealth to a certain extent, then they can influence and even dominate everything in the country. Dust × edge? Literature← and Learning ↙ Network

The most famous are the Morgan Consortium and the Rockefeller Consortium, of course, there are other consortiums rooted in the vast land of North America, and the Texas Consortium is such a powerful group.

Although the Texas consortium is not as famous as Rockefeller and Morgan, its strength should not be underestimated, with a total of four banks, three insurance, Boston Airlines, Texas Instruments, LTV and other well-known enterprises, covering finance, arms, aerospace and other fields, is an out-and-out predator.

On the North American side, there are only a few old large consortia that can compete with the Texas consortium family.

Marin didn't expect that he would provoke such a big man beforehand, and looking at Jones's command of the FBI, Marin could determine that his status in the Texas consortium was definitely not low, at least higher than her cheaper big brother Dwayne.

Thinking of Johnson, a flash of inspiration flashed through Marin's mind. Jones said that he had such a relationship with himself, and I am afraid it was related to Richard.

"Mr. Jones—" Marin began.

Jones raised his hand to stop his words, and said with a smile:

"You just call me Jones."

Marin nodded, and said tentatively:

"I have a big brother named Johnson Richard, but I don't know you and her..."

"Oh, Johnson," Jones laughed:

"He and I are Ivy League alumni, so that's why I said we have a relationship. Hehe, it turns out that we are all a family, which is really fateful. ”

Listening to Jones's words, Marin knew that this guy didn't really regard himself as his own family, but more closely. And the reason why he wants to get close to himself, the only possibility that Marin can think of is what he wants from himself.

"Miss Ma, speaking of which, it's my fault that you have suffered so much." Jones laughs and explains:

"Didn't I take that pink diamond from the Sheraton Hotel last night?"

Marin nodded slightly, but glanced at Tom who was expressionless.

Jones was able to say this in front of Tom, the FBI director, not because he had a deep friendship with Tom, or because he was not afraid that Tom would dare to leak the matter.

Listen to Jones continue:

"But just as I was bringing the diamond home, I was attacked by two black-clad thugs, who not only knocked all my bodyguards unconscious, but also knocked me unconscious, and when I woke up, the diamond was gone. Later, Director Tom and they intervened in the investigation, and after I told them everything I knew, they said that you were very suspicious. ”

Marin sneered in his heart, if it was an ordinary person, how could such a case alarm the people of the FBI.

"I didn't expect them to arrest you, Miss Ma." Jones laughed:

"When I knew that you were from the Richard family, I immediately rushed over, I believe that Miss Ma, you are definitely not the kind of person who is extremely vicious and daring, right?" Jones stared at Marlin, and the look in his eyes clearly meant something.

Marin smiled:

"Of course, I'm a legitimate businessman, so how could I do something like that? Especially since you and Johnson are also friends, we still don't know each other. ”

At this time, Jones smiled and nodded, and invited Marin:

"Miss Ma, in order to resolve the misunderstanding between us, let's have a meal together later."

Marin smiled bitterly:

"I'd like that, too, but I'm not very comfortable."

Only then did Jones remember that Marin had just been interrogated by Tom's ruthless subordinates, and his injuries were not light.

He hurriedly said, "I almost forgot, I'll arrange for you to go to the best hospital right away." ”

Marlin nodded, laughed at Jones's kindness, and at the same time pressed the ribs on his chest, glanced at Tom over there, and said:

"Your interrogation methods are too clever."

Hearing Marlin's words, Jones's face suddenly sank, and he stared at Tom and said in a low voice:

"Director Tom, if your people did such a thing to my friend without going through legal procedures, I will definitely pursue it!"

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jones, but it's all my fault for not taking care of them." Tom naturally cooperated until Jones was walking down the stairs on his own.

Marin also knew that he would take it when he saw it, so he smiled at Jones:

"Jones, forget it, in fact, they are just doing their job, and I am just unlucky to be this unlucky ghost."

Jones and Tom looked at each other, and they both secretly praised Marlin's actions.

This move not only expressed his dissatisfaction with the FBI, but immediately said that he did not blame them, and sold Tom's favor again, and did not make Jones ugly, and his control of proportion was very clever.

Glancing at Marin, Jones thought to himself that there was such a thoughtful person in the Richard family.

Later, Marin, Sun Xiang, Ah Jin, and Townsend were all sent to a private clinic in Los Angeles by Jones for physical examination and treatment.

In the senior ward, Marin underwent a detailed full body examination, George's guy is worthy of the FBI's "old fritters", the attack is yin and ruthless, during his interrogation, Marin cracked two ribs, and the spleen also showed signs of slight rupture, which can be said to be a serious injury.

This is still her insistence on exercising every day, and her body is very healthy, but if she were an ordinary person, she would probably have to be admitted to the intensive care unit.

Sun Xiang and Ah Jin both suffered some internal injuries, but they are far from being comparable to ordinary people, Ah Jin has been trained in anti-coercion, not to mention Sun Xiang, his body can be said to be tempered, so both of them are fine.

Speaking of which, Tang Sen is the worst, although he is the prince of the Sanjiang Society, and he has experienced a lot of dangers, but his body is not as good as Ma Lin and others, and he has never tried to be tortured by the FBI before, so this will be a great hardship.

It is also thanks to Tang Sen's poor physique, but his mouth is very hard, and he does not reveal the details of Sanjianghui and Ma Lin at all.

Although the injuries were not minor, under the careful treatment of the private clinic, Marin and them would not be in any serious trouble.

After half a day of processing, except for Townsend and Marin, they were able to get out of bed and move.

Marin also accepted Jones' invitation to come to the Sheraton Hotel again. It's just that Marin didn't come for the auction this time, but went to the luxury restaurant on the top floor with Jones to enjoy the food here.

Because it is a high-end hotel, Marin is also wearing a low-cut tight long dress, the whole person looks extremely charming and sexy, his chest as white as clotted fat is generously exposed to the air, and a pair of straight breasts firmly tied by pink bras are also looming.

She has always had a clear mind, she knows that people like to judge people by their appearance, so tonight she is not only dressed up beautifully, but also very elegant in words and deeds.

And Jones also restrained his hideous face beyond recognition and became extremely gentlemanly.

The Sheraton Hotel is also a Los Angeles landmark, with views of downtown Los Angeles from the top floor.

The well-dressed waiter carefully poured red wine for Jones and Marlin, and Jones skillfully picked up the glass and shook it gently, allowing the aroma of the red wine to slowly emanate.
