"But so what?" The big guy spread his hands out, "Why don't I go and put out loan sharks, and then launder the money?" It's easy and fast to get money, and even if you pay back the money, I can't get more than the legal interest rate according to the law. How do we settle more than 16 percent between us? ”

In New York State, the maximum interest rate for private loans is 16% per annum, and if it exceeds this standard, it is a crime to be a usury.

Because many of the leaders of the Italian-American gangs are in New York, the federal prosecutors in New York are very close to the loan sharks.

"Moreover, do you have no concept of money, do you know what the per capita income of our country was last year? 9451 US Knife. Two hundred thousand dollars, that's all the money a dozen adults make in a year. As for you, plus your whole family and Anthony, I'm afraid you won't be able to sell 200,000 US dollars. ”

The big guy spoke briskly, and then he pretended to stare at Bill carefully, and then said:

"But if you look like this, you can still serve those rich old women, and you should be able to earn a lot of money, but it's far less than 10,000 pieces of paper with Andrew Jackson's portrait on them."

Andrew Jackson is the head of the twenty-dollar head, the seventh president of the United States.

Bill, who was sitting on the two-seater's sofa, crossed his legs and asked in the same tone as the big guy: "This is just what you see, I have more valuable collateral for you to lend me money." It may be a bit of a hassle, but it's like a bet that if I don't repay the loan within the allotted time, you can take my collateral. ”

Then he also learned from the big guy, and teased the other party after saying a long paragraph: "By the way, do you know what is the right bet?" It's if I ......"

The big guy smiled, revealing his neat and white shiny teeth: "Of course I know what is a bet." But I've been looking up and down for a long time, and you don't have any collateral worth 200,000 US dollars? If you can sleep with those old ladies all year long, I can pay a higher price for eight inches. ”

Eight inches is about twenty.3 centimeters.

An eight-foot dude who can drive piles for a whole year is worth a lot of money, but Bill hasn't gotten to that point yet.

"It seems that you really don't have vision, and you're never going to make the money that white people make." Bill retreats as advances.

The white people here are not Europeans or white-skinned people, but generally high-class, high-class whites.

Because the Italian, Irish, and Eastern European Americans at the bottom have their own specific names.

The big guy didn't get angry when he heard this, but put his hands behind his head and lay down more comfortably, "You came to borrow money, but you said that you are valuable." The two of us can't be so time-consuming all the time, and I have a serious job! ”

"All of my brokerage contracts during my tenure in the NFL, I think that's enough to mortgage $200,000."

Faced with this big guy who doesn't eat oil and salt and only wants benefits, Bill can only show the last hole card.

"Rugby players? NFL？ The big guy repeated the sentence in his mouth, then slowly lowered his feet from the edge of the table, sat up straight, crossed his fingers on the table, and began to look at the stout young man from the beginning.

It may have been a few seconds, but after Bill felt it for a long time, the big guy asked, "How heavy are you?" ”

His tone was slightly more serious than before.

"Two weeks ago, it was 220 pounds, and I've been gaining weight lately, and I eat chicken breast and left-handed chicken every day, and it's probably about 230 pounds."

Bill lied a little.

Every day at school there was a lot of cheap chicken for lunch, and he passively ate the chicken breast.

"It's only been high school...... Did you know that the NFL changed some of its rules last year? The big guy asked again.

Bill nodded, "Of course I know that the result is that the players on the front line weigh straight up to three hundred pounds, which is why I'm so valuable." ”

In 1978, in order to make the game more enjoyable and to protect the offensive group, the NFL allowed the front five of the offensive group to open their arms and stretch their fingers to defend against the enemy defensive group.

This greatly reduced the technical requirements of the attacking group to defend against the enemy's forward line, and physique began to become important.

As a result, the nine men in the entire offensive and defensive line began to gain weight like an arms race, and the front line of the top NFL teams began to appear in large numbers of 300-pound plus-size players.

This is the biggest reason why Coach Murphy pays so much attention to the weight of his players.

"You're in high school now, aren't you? You can enter the university team in two years at the earliest, and then enter the league after two years...... Four years at the earliest, six years at the slower, during which there is a risk of injury ......"

"After entering the league, you will play for eight years, with an average of 600,000 dollars per year, and the agent will get 10 percent, or 15 percent, that is, between 500,000 and 700,000 US dollars."

"But maybe you can't get into the league and you'll be eliminated in college, it's too risky, I don't think it's okay."

The big guy gave his opinion and vetoed the little bit of excitement that rose in his heart just now.

He shook his head, as if he had pronounced a verdict on the failure of Bill's football career.

"Are you a rugby player, are you a professional scout, are you the manager of a certain team?" Bill asked again.

The big guy is still assessing Bill's figure, "You're delaying time with nonsense, I'm not either." ”

"Then why don't you listen to the pros? My coach, a former NFL professional tackler, Jack Murphy, thought I could do the best defensive guard in the league, and Robert, the tactical coach, thought I could break through all the interceptions on the right end......"

Bill started talking nonsense, anyway, the guy in front of him probably didn't know much about rugby.

"How many fights have you played? What are the results? The big guy suddenly interrupted Bill.

You can't lie about it, the NFHS New York State Association keeps track of every intercollegiate game, so find someone to look it up.

"One game, but I played both offensive and defensive positions, and last Friday's game was on the news on CBS, and I was in the middle of the frame."

In Friday's game, Beal knocked the opposing rangers' backing more than three yards away, sending his quarterback straight for a touchdown in the end zone, a comical scene captured by a clever videographer and featured in the highlights of the high school football game.

Because the quarterback's touchdown with the ball is as hilarious as in a soccer game, where the goalkeeper shakes off the opposing eleven and his own ten, dribbles the ball all the way and shoots lightly in front of the goal, and scores.

The big guy's face became strange, "I really can't understand you as a person, it gives me a feeling of being very valuable, and it sounds like a liar." But considering that your cousin is my close subordinate, I'm a little unsure. ”

"It's easy to verify whether I'm a liar or not, just ask a scout about me, I think they're more experienced than me and you." Bill Bangzun.

This is also something that can't be helped, this big guy is too stable, and there is no hole to exploit.

The big guy spread his two hands on the table, tapped the table with the index finger of his right hand, and replied after a few deep breaths: "That's the case, just find a scout and ask." ”

Then he looked up at Bill head-on: "There are no $200,000 dollars, I can be sure of that." But if the scouts think you are valuable, we can discuss the amount of money to borrow, and how to do it, and you don't have to go to someone else to mortgage your brokerage rights first, I still have strength on my side, and I will give you a definite reply by the end of this week at the latest. ”

Mr. Ferrari thought about it, and it could only be like this, they were all old fritters, and they couldn't empty their gloves without anything.
