Chapter 212 1923
(Ask for a subscription!) Ask for a ticket! )
To be fair, Ge Manni's wave is really a bug, just the first day of employment, the foreplay hasn't been done yet, just go straight to the gc, who can stand this?
Of course, happiness is definitely happiness, especially for people who are results-oriented and don't care about the process.
The payment method she proposed made Lao Li smile, with his Lao Li's speed of saving money, how could he make up the full amount in two years.
No one knows how he saved up money as a driver and a laborer.
What kind of car is driven separately, whether it is carrying people or goods, and if it is cargo, what kind of cargo.
If it's wine, that's understandable.
So, Lao Li didn't say a word, signed the contract on the spot and paid the deposit, which made his colleagues envious, and the shit couldn't stop when people were lucky.
In fact, there are not a few people in Chinatown who are in a situation similar to Lao Li, who always feel that the Chinese are poor and the Chinese are easy to bully.
I didn't know that there were so many rich people in Chinatown, but now it's all blown up.
It's just that in the end, Li Yaoyang was cheaper, with an average house price of 80,000 yuan, 1,000 households is the income of 00,000 dollars, and Xinhua Town has 5,000 households planned in the first phase alone.
Is it much? Not much at all!
A family of three, 5,000 households is only 15,000 people, and even if these people all get the right to vote, it is less than one-third of the size of the Atlantic City ticket warehouse.
But don't worry, it's more than 0 acres of land, there is enough space to accommodate more people, and if it doesn't work, you can expand to the side.
In just a few months, more than 4 million dollars were collected for the deposit and down payment alone, which came much faster than robbing a bank.
During this period, Kiel Eland also began a propaganda offensive for the election of the council, Atlantic City was his natural vote base, his propaganda slogans were all over the street, and that face was almost vomiting.
He and Li Yaoyang are clearly separated, and no one should delay anyone's career, and in such a situation, Atlantic City is in a strange balance.
But don't think that things will settle down, whether it is Li Yaoyang or Kiel Eland, they all know in their hearts that when all the dust falls, it will be the time for the gunpowder to rise again.
It is worth mentioning that the enforcement of Prohibition has been pushed to a new level, and throughout the whole ugly, except for Atlantic City, which is outside the law, alcohol sales in other regions have ushered in a period of low period.
New York's underground taverns have been closed one after another, and less than a third of the taverns that are still supporting the theater chain are still supported, including the Dongxing Tavern, all but the one on Kenny Street are closed.
The Difu Tavern, which opened after the rectification, has also been transformed into a teahouse, but it is only secretly selling wine and does not dare to accept drinkers.
Ricardo Moody officially took over all the affairs of the Hey-Hand Party in New York, but he also encountered the most difficult period, and often called Li Yaoyang to complain.
In this regard, Li Yaoyang's attitude is:
"Stay up, just get through it."
Anyway, he never mentioned coming to Atlantic City, what did the other party think about him and want to come to Atlantic City? Not to mention the windows, there are no doors.
Letting Ricardo in is equivalent to luring the wolf into the room and opening the door to the old king next door, and he won't do this kind of thing.
He already regarded Atlantic City as his own territory, and naturally he would not allow others to get involved, and neither could Ricardo, this guy was far from being as reliable as he imagined.
Friendship? Hehe!
At the height of National Prohibition, Atlantic City had a great opportunity to grow.
The growing influx of people into Atlantic City is a testament to this.
If there are people, they will have purchasing power, and if they have purchasing power, the economy will be able to live.
By the end of 1922, Atlantic City's permanent population exceeded 90,000, just one step away from the 100,000 mark.
The population boom has also brought about new problems, such as accommodation, catering, transportation, public security, etc., many problems need to be solved urgently.
Li Yaoyang also took this opportunity to invest wildly, and all walks of life were involved, including two hotels, three restaurants, and a passenger transport company.
The hotel is mainly engaged in civilian business, of course, it is not accommodation that makes money, but selling wine and selling..., I know everything, accommodation to send young sisters, men's favorites.
The three restaurants, including Chinese, fast, and high-end Western food, are doing quite well because you can drink alcohol here, and you can drink all kinds of alcohol.
As for the passenger transport company, on the surface, it is a long-distance passenger business from New York to Atlantic City via New Jersey, but in fact, every bus is modified to transport people and alcohol at the same time.
In just two years, the way of transporting wine has changed several times, and each time I waited for the other party to find out the way out, but before I had time to trace it carefully, I changed to a new model, and I made people feel like internal injuries.
In this way, his business became bigger and bigger, and the name of Dongxing resounded throughout the Chinese world.
This is the power of capital, the first pot of gold is the rarest, always full of blood, and when you earn the first pot of gold, you will find that it is really not so difficult to make money.
That is, there is no rich list now, if there is, Li Yaoyang must be on the list.
He hadn't counted how much money he had, but it was definitely over a million.
The millionaires of this period, those are real millionaires, the influence is far greater than that of the billionaires of later generations, at least the hegemon of a region.
For example, Atlantic City, if you make a power list, Li Yaoyang is firmly among the top three.
The first is Kiel Eland, and he deserves it.
As for whether he can rank second or third, it is a matter of opinion, Li Yaoyang himself doesn't care about this, anyway, the person who dares to trouble him casually in Atlantic City has not yet been born.
————————————
Time flies, entering 1923, the new year and new atmosphere, just after the Lunar New Year, Li Yaoyang is ready to give himself a holiday, busy for so long, he has a feeling of physical and mental exhaustion, if he does not adjust it, his mentality will be problematic.
However, the plan did not change quickly, and a sudden news caught him off guard and dispelled the idea of taking a vacation.
"Mr. Mario is retiring?" Li Yaoyang was very surprised.
At this time, he was basking in the sun on a deck chair by the sea, when Steven hurried to report.
"The news that has just come has not been confirmed."
"Who sent it?"
"When our people handed over the goods to Chicago, they listened to the little brother on the other side."
Li Yaoyang suddenly:
"Nine times out of ten, Mr. Mario has already decided to quit."
"Shall we do something?"
"No, pretend you don't know, keep an eye on Al, if you're right, Al is going on a killing spree."
Steven bowed slightly, he knew what kind of person Al was, once he succeeded in ascending to the throne, he was afraid that he would be scared to death to those enemies who had offended him at the first time, and there was no one in his dictionary who was afraid!
