Chapter 85: Caroline's Phone
Collins barged into the restaurant and was disappointed to see the Jones family having a good conversation with Jamie.
The corners of Jane's mouth, who followed behind Collins, curled up triumphantly.
When it comes to acting, their family is professional.
After dinner, the Jones family enthusiastically sent Jamie and Collins to the door.
The two sides waved goodbye, and as soon as they turned around, Collins couldn't wait to complain:
"I didn't expect you to be conquered by the Jones family so easily."
Jamie was noncommittal.
"It was just a casual conversation, but they were very welcoming."
"You're referring to Jane Jones, aren't you?"
Collins's tone suddenly became a little yin and yang.
The thought that Jane was actually in front of his house just now, openly firing at Jamie in front of his parents, Collins was angry.
In the past, Jane didn't rely on her sexy beauty, but she kept having boyfriends, and Collins thought that she was not the same person as those bewitching sluts outside.
As a result, this blue pond is actually just casting a long line to catch big fish.
However, Jamie tells Collins that he thinks the Jones family are good-hearted people.
People who help WeHouse advertise for free, can this heart not be hot?
It's a pity that Collins couldn't grasp the true meaning of Jamie's words, glared at Jamie, and turned away in disappointment.
The Taussy family lived really close to the Jones family, just across the street, less than 50 meters in a straight line.
The next morning, Jamie receives a call from Dan.
As soon as he spoke, Dan asked Jamie how he did it.
Jamie was confused.
Did he do anything?
"Mike called Jenny early this morning, and they broke up."
Dan's tone was filled with curiosity, and there was a little excitement.
After saying this, he suddenly realized that as an older brother, he shouldn't be so happy when his sister was dumped.
quickly changed to a more serious tone and explained.
Jenny was very sad after being broken up, but no matter how others asked, she refused to say the reason for the breakup.
Dan can only find a way to call Jamie to see if Jamie knows something.
After all, only Jamie had been in contact with the Jones family for a long time last night.
Jamie didn't expect the Jones family to be so efficient, and Mike broke up with Jenny at the speed of light, which also means that the company behind the Jones family has definitely "yielded" to Jamie.
It's a great start.
Jamie was just about to call Jen to confirm the incident, and by the way, asked Mike what reason he used to break up with Jenny.
As soon as I picked up my phone, Collins' call came in.
"Damn, what the hell did you say to the Jones family last night, Mike and Jenny broke up this morning."
Ignoring Collins' frantic tone on the other end of the phone, Jamie switched to holding the phone.
"I just found out about it, so shouldn't that be a good thing?"
"Do you know what the reason for Mike and Jenny's breakup was? He told Jenny that the person he really liked was me, and that he was only approaching Jenny to get to know me more from Jenny! ”
Jenny had a big fight with Collins as soon as she arrived at school this morning, and Collins was impatient to call Jamie to question.
Jamie's eyes suddenly flashed with Jane's extremely bright face.
Tell him directly, this matter must have nothing to do with Jane.
But the immediate priority is to appease Collins first.
"Well, I did see through the Jones family's secret last night, and I asked Mike to break up with Jenny, but I really didn't expect him to use such a bad reason."
Collins' first reaction when he heard this was not to ask about the Jones family's secrets, but to question Jamie angrily.
Where is Mike's breakup reason rotten?
Because he likes men!
Jamie couldn't tell Collins the truth, so he could only explain that he did ask Mike to break up with Jenny, but he didn't expect Mike to put the reason for the breakup with Collins.
Collins is surprisingly in line with Jamie.
"It must have been Jen's idea for Mike! I've long seen that she's not a good woman! ”
It was only then that Collins finally remembered to ask Jamie what the Jones family's secret was.
Jamie refused to answer the question, citing an agreement between himself and the Jones family.
Surprisingly, Collins accepted the result with great ease.
In fact, Collins had secretly made up his mind to find out the secret himself.
As soon as the front foot ended the call with Collins, Jamie received a breaking text message from the gossip queen on his mobile phone.
Jenny and Collins had a fight at school and the gossip queen was posted, and Jamie didn't even have to call Dan again to explain.
Then another call came in.
Jamie looks at his phone and sees a long-lost name on the screen.
Caroline.
Half an hour later, Jamie took a taxi to the door of the newly opened Bankrupt Sisters Cake Shop on Fifth Avenue, and unexpectedly found that the person standing at the door wearing a welcome uniform and opening the door for guests entering and exiting was actually Li Han.
As soon as he saw Jamie, Li Han happily beckoned to this side.
"Welcome, Mr. Dutton!"
Li Han, who wore white gloves, personally helped Jamie push open the glass door of the cake shop.
The benefits of being short and welcoming as a doorman are immediately apparent.
Without bending over, you can give your guests a high-level service experience.
Jamie decided to go back and ask which ghost wanted to let Li Han be the doorman for the cake shop, and he wanted to increase the other party's salary.
But right now, Jamie is more concerned about what happens to Li Han's previous restaurant.
"When I found out that I opened a restaurant in the slums of Brooklyn and didn't make as much money a month as a doorman in front of a fancy cake shop in Manhattan, smart people knew what to choose."
Li Han winked at Jamie and explained proudly.
In addition to not having to bear the expenses of the restaurant, Li Han also saved a lawyer's consultation fee.
For Jamie's sake, Jimmy largely terminated the contract with Li Han, and did not ask the other party for any liquidated damages.
Of course, Jimmy can't afford this little money now, and he is preparing to rent an office building in Manhattan and officially set up a law firm in his name.
In addition to higher income, career development prospects are also an important reason for attracting Li Han.
Because Caroline promised Li Han that as long as he worked hard and waited for the cake shop to open a second branch, Li Han would be promoted to be the store manager.
When Li Han happily talked to Jamie about this, Jamie was a little confused.
Is the Bankrupt Sisters Cake Shop about to open a second branch so soon?
How could he, the majority shareholder, not know?
But it must be admitted that Caroline's ability to draw flatbread really has a bit of the style of her father Martin Channing.
After entering the door, Caroline, wearing a set of seasonal Chanel skirts, walked on her long legs comparable to that of a model, and stepped on high heels to greet her warmly.
The store employs a number of waiters, and Caroline, who is normally the store manager, does not need to come forward to serve customers.
Therefore, the waiters in the store were curious about the identity of this young and handsome male customer who could be entertained by Caroline herself.
Unfortunately, Caroline didn't give everyone more time to observe and speculate, put on a trench coat, carried a box of packaged cupcakes, and left the cake shop with Jamie.
On the side of the road, Li Han had already stopped a taxi for the two.
The two of them took the bus to Central Park together, and after getting out of the car, they found a bench to sit down.
While eating the cupcakes brought by Caroline, they chatted about their recent situation.
Caroline tells Jamie that Max and she have taken over the restaurant that Li Han had closed down and converted it into a cupcake production workshop.
Earle, the old black man, went from cashier to now warehouse caretaker, and the most important thing was that he got a raise.
The operation of the bankrupt sister cake shop is also on the right track.
Thanks to Rebecca's active promotion at Constance High School, the entire Upper East Side rich second-generation circle now knows about this cake shop.
Even Serena, the queen of the year, went to that cake shop to check in, which made cupcakes a star product that everyone fought.
Caroline made an important decision.
Prices!
Cupcakes that were originally $7 rose to $21 a piece.
Then cupcakes sold even more hotly.
Just as Max was about to increase her daily cake production, Caroline stopped her from doing so.
It even allowed Max to reduce his daily production by one layer.
It has successfully established the impression of cupcakes among consumers that cupcakes are expensive and in short supply.
As a result, the cupcakes are sold out as soon as they hit the shelves, and in many cases, they even have to be ordered two days in advance to buy them.
Apple's hunger marketing strategy in her previous life was thoroughly played by Caroline in advance.
Anyway, Max has been waking up from a dream every morning lately.
Jamie congratulated Caroline on the spot, and Caroline calmly said that it was all given by Jamie.
If it weren't for Jamie, she would still be working as a waitress at that wave-breaking restaurant in the slums of Brooklyn, and she would have to endure the stares and verbal harassment of the unemployed vagrants and thugs every day.
As she spoke, Caroline couldn't help but cry.
She remembered the night her home was closed by the bank, and she knocked on the doors of six friends, but they were all turned away.
Seeing this, Jamie had no choice but to gently hold Caroline's shoulders and comfort her softly.
Unexpectedly, in the next second, Caroline threw herself directly into Jamie's arms and blocked his mouth without saying a word.
After a long time, the two separated.
Caroline tells Jamie that Max spends the day in the cake shop and asks Jamie if he would like to visit where she and Max live.
Considering that Caroline was depressed at this time and really needed to be comforted, Jamie agreed without hesitation.
The entire tour lasted almost an hour.
During this time, Jamie and Caroline were also enthusiastic to help Max test the reliability of her new table.
It was sturdy during use, but after it was used, I found that the four legs were a little shaky.
After cleaning up the test marks on the table, Caroline said that it was okay, and she asked Max to return it for a new one.
Only then did Jamie remember that when Caroline asked him to meet on the phone, she said that she had something very important to tell him.
Caroline told Jamie to wait for a moment, rummaged around the room, and finally walked out with a newspaper.
"This is a September issue of the Wharton School of Business, and I asked the only student who didn't block my phone number to find it."
Jamie took the newspaper with a puzzled look on his face, and found that it was an investment analysis report written by a student.
The author is an Asian American, and the photo is at the top of the analysis.
A fat man with a round face who wears glasses, has small eyes, and has an unremarkable appearance.
"I'm generally face blind to Asian Americans, and I often can't tell who is who, of course, it's definitely not discrimination, but I remember this guy in the photo very clearly."
Caroline walked over to Jamie and sat down.
"His name is Jho-Low, probably based on the pronunciation of his original name, but it feels weird that he was accepted into Wharton after graduating from Harrow School, and he happened to be a classmate of mine."
"He has a mysterious family background and always shows off that he knows a lot of powerful people from Malay and the Middle East, and he once wanted to date me, but I refused."
"In order to attract more attention at Wharton, he often publishes some articles on investment analysis in the journal, and I even sent one of them to my dad at that time, and guess what my dad said."
"My dad told me bluntly that this guy was definitely a liar, because his articles were copied from the investment reports of professional analysts on Wall Street, and although he was very hidden, my dad found out."
"Later, I made a special inquiry, and it turned out that his articles could be published in the newspaper because he bribed the editor-in-chief of the journal, and I had already started to collect evidence at that time, and if he came to harass me again, I would expose all the things he did, and as a result, my father had an accident."
After listening to Caroline's story, Jamie picked up the newspaper again and checked the other party's name and photo.
He now finally remembered who this guy was.
Caroline's father is a master of scammers who has deceived the entire Wall Street, and he can see his future peers at a glance.
The little fat man in the photo, who looks inconspicuous and looks a little honest and honest, is called Liu Tezuo.
In the future, he will defraud billions of dollars from the sovereign wealth fund of the Malaysian country and enrich his own pocket.
It is known as the Malaysian version of Heshen.
In terms of the amount of money involved, Liu Tezuo's handwriting is obviously not as amazing as Caroline's father's tens of billions of dollars Ponzi scheme.
However, in terms of courage and skill, Liu Tezuo is much stronger than Caroline's father.
Caroline's father just deceived the bankers and investors on Wall Street, while Liu Tezuo deceived the whole country.
Single-handedly, Malaysia's economic strength has been set back by ten years.
The most awesome thing is that this guy has been wanted by Malaysia and the United States for several years after the incident, and he can still get away with it.
Later, the United States very bizarrely revoked his wanted notice, and then this guy came up with a sum of money to reconcile with Malaysia, so that Malaysia could withdraw his wanted notice.
It's awesome enough for a liar to do this, and even more awesome is that this guy actually invested in an autobiographical movie in Hollywood.
The Wolf of Wall Street!
It was because of this movie in Jamie's previous life that he learned about Liu Tezuo's various "glorious" deeds.
I didn't expect this Liu Tezuo to be a classmate of Caroline.
Ask for a wave of monthly pass support!
