Chapter 218: A Strange Request

Jacob Logan graduated from the prestigious University of California, Grand Berkeley, at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve, and successfully entered Citibank, the largest bank in the United States.

Jacob Rogan, who had just entered the workforce, believed that with the knowledge he had learned in school, he would be able to do well in his job and eventually become a top manager at the largest bank in the United States.

However, there is always an insurmountable gap between dreams and reality. Jacob, who used to be very good in school, found out after entering the society that the campus and society were different, very different.

It can't be said that everything learned in school is not useful in society, but there are very few things that can really be used, which makes Jacob a lot more confused.

Especially in a company as fiercely competitive as Citibank, the hardships of this challenge were something Jacob had never imagined before.

The financial industry is the backbone of the U.S. economy, so the brutality of competition in this industry is unimaginable. Working in this industry will certainly allow you to earn wealth that is beyond the reach of ordinary people, but at the same time, you will pay very, very much.

Because this industry only needs elites, anyone who can't adapt to the competition in this industry, no matter how good you were before, will inevitably be ruthlessly eliminated.

Jacob was one of those who were almost eliminated. However, although Jacob is a bit unlucky, he has a pretty good character, that is, he does not admit defeat.

It was because of his personality that he eventually stayed in the industry, but in the same way, he became one of the precipitated people in this bank, like most people.

In an absolute pyramid enterprise like Citibank, everyone is an elite, but there are only a handful of people who can really stand at the top of the pyramid, which requires not only you to have enough professional knowledge, but also to have extremely high communication skills and handling skills, and of course, a little luck......

Jacob Rogan's expertise is undeniable, and UC Berkeley's master's degree in economics is not for nothing. And Jacob, who was the main backbone of the two clubs in school, has never lacked communication skills and handling skills. But what he lacked was that little bit of luck, so it has been ten years since he graduated, and he has only mixed in as a junior private account manager at Citibank's San Francisco branch.

More than half a month ago, Mr. Jacob Logan had an additional client, a new client, who, according to the personal information provided by the client, was a Chinese who had just come to San Francisco from China.

When Jacob saw that the client had an extra $3 million in his account in his account, he already understood what the purpose of the newcomer to the United States was.

Nine times out of ten, it's for immigrants!

After ten years in the bank, and although he had not been promoted by a little luck, Mr. Jacob Logan had already developed a sharp eye.

He'd been in a lot of situations like this before.

As the world's only superpower, the United States has always been the envy of many developing countries, whose inhabitants are eager to immigrate to the great United States of America as long as they have a little ability or wealth.

But is the great United States of America the one that can easily immigrate?

If it was in the nineties of the last century, when the economic growth rate of the United States was the fastest, it might be easier to handle investment immigration at that time, after all, the economic growth rate of the United States was very high at that time, and the White House guys who were vegetarian also liked to issue green cards indiscriminately, which resulted in an average of more than 120,000 green cards being issued by the immigration bureau every year in those years, and I don't know how many illegal immigrants.

But with the bursting of the dot-com bubble at the turn of the century, followed by the 911 incident and the subprime mortgage crisis in '08, the U.S. economy fell into a quagmire.

If the economy is not strong, the guys in the White House will naturally not be able to issue green cards as unscrupulously as before, so in recent years, the USCIS has only issued an average of 60,000 green cards per year.

The economy itself is not strong, employment is sluggish, if more immigrants compete with American citizens for jobs, do you still want to sit in the White House?

It is precisely because of this situation that even if there is the "American Immigration and Naturalization Act", but now, let alone an investment of 500,000 US dollars, even if it is an investment of 1 million US dollars, it is difficult to say whether it can pass the review of those guys in the USCIS.

Nowadays, it is becoming more and more difficult to immigrate to the United States by investment.

Jacob has experienced many such customers in the past ten years, and only a few of them were lucky enough to pass the review of the immigration bureau and get a green card, and the vast majority of customers had a lot of dollars in their bank cards when they first came, ranging from six or seven hundred thousand to one or two million, but in the end, most of these customers disappeared.

Either he went home, or he stayed behind secretly and became a shameful illegal immigrant.

Jacob Logan even maliciously thought that most of those people from that country on the other side of the ocean should have stayed secretly.

To talk about these people is also strange tight, you say that you put your country to live a good life, but you have to go to the United States to live that kind of sneaky and unsightly days, why is this?

Do you really think this kind of life is good? No insurance, no housing, and even a bank card, do you say you are living a suffocating life?

Honestly, Jacob Logan despised such people. If you don't let your own owner do it, you have to go to the other side of the ocean to be a dog, why do you live like this?

Don't think you're going to be able to get the USCIS guys so much money that you bring in three million dollars.

Don't you know that in recent years, as more and more foreigners have come to the United States to apply for green cards, the appetite of the guys at the immigration bureau has become very tricky? In addition, the immigration investment fraud that broke out in California two years ago has made the guys in the immigration bureau widen their eyes, and even if you have a little wrong, those guys will unceremoniously drive you back.

Jacob Logan has begun to mourn in his heart for his new client.

But early that morning, when Jacob Logan was able to work in his office, two young Chinese people came straight to him.

One of the taller young men, after pulling out a green card, made an offer that made Jacob both embarrassed and a little excited.

"Mr. Rogan, can you find a secluded office? As your client, I now have some more intimate business to entrust to you. Oh yes, I'm Albert Young. ”

The client made a request, and Jacob Logan, who has always taken "the customer is God" as his motto, was very happy to find a quiet office for both parties. The young man who had been with Albert Young turned and left, and Jacob Logan, who was the only two people left to spend time with, heard one of the strangest requests of his career.

"Mr. Logan, as my account manager, you must know how much money I have in my account now, right?"

Jacob Logan nodded, he was also wondering that just three days ago, this customer, who had not moved before, suddenly had a huge amount of money of up to 30 million dollars on his account.

This sudden extra money came from the country on the other side of the ocean, and Jacob Logan was also very strange, if there was no American green card person, it would be impossible to get so much money from the country on the other side of the ocean. Although China's economic growth rate on the other side of the ocean has made the whole world jealous in recent years, that country's foreign exchange management is still very strict, and it is impossible for such a large amount of money to be transferred to the United States through official channels.

But that's how it happened.

Jacob Logan, who had been wondering for three days, now understands that this customer, who has only been in the United States for half a month, has unknowingly obtained a green card......

Don't...... Could this customer be the legendary ...... But he's so young, he doesn't look like that kind of person, well, he must be a descendant of that kind of person!

If there is anything that can explain this miraculous thing, it is the legendary descendants of naked officials. Only this identity can give a satisfactory explanation to everything that is unreasonable.

Jacob Logan, who was suspicious, heard Albert Young say, "Mr. Rogan, I need you to help me turn all this money into cash in my account! Mr. Rogan, I know my request is a bit unreasonable, but if you can help me handle this business, I can only collect $30 million in cash from the more than $32 million on my books, and the rest of the money can be all yours as your reward!"

"Well, I know it's a bit weird, but I don't have any requirements for the dollar cash I need, except for the release date, and other new and old things. ”

Albert Young's words immediately made Jacob Logan feel his tail vertebrae numb, and a stream of heat rushed along his spine from his tail vertebrae into his brain in an instant.

After being stunned for a long time and swallowing a mouthful of saliva with difficulty, Jacob Logan asked dryly: "Mr. Yang, is all this true? As long as I get you $30 million in pre-1976 cash, you will take the remaining $2.68 million in your account as my payment?"

Yang Jing snapped his fingers with a smile, and then said very affirmatively: "Yes, Mr. Logan, you heard it right. As long as you can get me as much cash as I ask, then I'll be the talker. ”

After receiving Yang Jing's affirmative answer, Jacob Logan immediately realized that the little luck he had been waiting for for a long time suddenly befell him!

Although Albert Young's request was a strange one, Jacob Rogan, who had worked at Citibank for ten years, did not think it was a difficult thing to do. Whether it is the small front page US dollar bills issued from 1928 to 1995, the large front page US dollar bills issued from 1996 to 2008, or the color version of the US dollar bills that have only been issued for a short time, they have always been circulating in the market.

Among other things, Jacob Logan knew very well that in the bank's underground vault, there were about 70 million dollars in old cash, most of which were issued before the 80s of the last century, and all of them were 100 dollar bills.

Because in 2013, a new version of the 100 dollar bill was issued, so now major banks are starting to recycle the previous version of the 100 dollar bill. The $70 million 100 dollar bill was recovered under these circumstances.

The recovered 100-dollar bills were supposed to be sent to the Federal Reserve Bank in exchange for a new version of the bills when they were supposed to be worth $100 million, but now this customer has made such a request, and if he applies for it, he must be able to exchange the 100-dollar bills recovered from the vault.

What impressed Jacob Logan the most was the $2.68 million payment!

That's $2.68 million, not $268,000, not $26,800! If this young man could keep his promise, he would be a millionaire in the truest sense of the word. Even if you don't go to work for the rest of your life, with this money, you can immigrate to Bermuda, the British Virgin Islands or the Cayman Islands, and live this life with your family carefree.

Dude has been in the banking industry for ten years, and he wants to transfer the $2.68 million out quietly, not to mention the damn guys at the IRS, even if the CIA comes out, he can't find out!

Are you really that good at talking to a Swiss bank?

Lao Tzu worked hard in this bank for ten years, but in exchange for a salary of less than $100,000 a year!

And if you can get this payment, it is equivalent to working in this bank for 27 years without eating or drinking!

His sister, 27 years later, Lao Tzu will already be 60 years old! And now with this money, it's still a fart!

As long as you have this money, many of your previous ideas can be slowly realized! And with this money as a foundation, with your financial knowledge, you can do anything casually and make more money than working hard here!

Why not!

Gritting his teeth, Jacob Logan said with certainty: "Mr. Yang, please give me two days, and I will send this cash to the place you specified!"

Yang Jing smiled, stretched out his hand to hold Jacob Logan's hand, shook it vigorously and said, "I look forward to the success of this cooperation!"
