Chapter 375 Even eating and taking After resting in the villa for half an hour, Gwen sent new news to the chief, informing him that several private planes had arrived on the island. The security team met with the pilots and found that the planes were carrying goods from Silver Island, all loaded with cash and gold. Gwen: According to the pilot, they were all transported to Jehovah Island according to your requirements. What should we do with these things? Zhang Ailun took a look at the message and responded: Find a professional to appraise those antiques, and make two copies of the appraisal report. Then find a counterfeiter in California's Chinatown to make a few new ones. The real ones will be entrusted to auction and sold, and the fake ones will be placed in the villa on the island for people to visit. Gwen: I see. What about gold and cash? Zhang Ailun: All of them are stored in the vault. The gold worth $500 million is stored there and not moved. When the gold price goes up, a small part can be sold appropriately, and then bought back when the gold price drops. The cash is kept as a reserve fund for island construction, to purchase some resources or asset investments needed on the island. Gwen: Seven or eight hundred million dollars in cash. That's not enough for island construction, unless we build new buildings, villas, and power stations. Zhang Ailun: We’ll talk about this later. After chatting with his assistant Gwen for a few more words, Zhang Allen exited the chat box, found Madison's account, and sent him a message, asking him if he still wanted those rare antique collectible coins. Madison: Have you sorted out your personal affairs? Of course I want them, didn't we already agree on that? Zhang Ailun: I just returned to Los Angeles not long ago, and now I have time to send those rare silver coins to you. Did you just wake up, or are you on vacation on the island again? Which model or celebrity did you invite to play games with you? Madison: Is this the kind of person you think I am? I am so old, can't I enjoy myself more? You guessed wrong! Yesterday my son came to visit me with his wife and daughter. We went out to take a boat ride and enjoy the scenery. You would never guess why he came to see me. Zhang Ailun: You don’t want money, do you?
Madison: You're half right, but that's about right. In the early years, I invested a sum of money in each of them and set up a foundation. When they grow up, each of them will have millions of dollars to rely on, whether it's living an ordinary life or doing business, and I feel relieved. I didn't think about asking for any return. After all, no matter how much they fool around, they can't be richer than their father. I also have several wives and children, and I can't manage them all. Zhang Ailun: … Aren't you a typical case of you bringing it upon yourself, and not recognizing anyone after you put on your pants? But at least he left several million dollars in funds for his son and daughter. In today's society, there are many people willing to be godfathers even if it's one million dollars. Madison is an okay guy, he has some conscience, since he has so many descendants and wives. Zhang Ailun only knew that the old man had a lot of fun when he was young and was unwilling to take responsibility, but he had no idea what kind of work his descendants were doing. But there is no doubt that many of the other party’s sons are definitely older than the chief leader, and maybe his son’s daughter is the same age as the chief leader. Madison: But my son has invested in emerging technologies, popular online movies and TV shows, game clubs, etc. in recent years, and has made some money. But if he wants to make more money, he needs to invest more. However, his connections are not enough to support him in finding investment, and he hit a wall. Then he came to me for money and promised that he could get hundreds of millions of dollars in return within a year! I am considering whether to invest some money in him for the sake of my granddaughter. Zhang Ailun: He is your son after all, you shouldn't be so stingy. The fact that he comes to you to ask for money shows that he wants to ease the relationship between father and son. Madison: One of my sons has already died, and it's not necessarily a good thing for them to be associated with me. Even if I can't become a billionaire, isn't it enough to have a few million dollars to live on for the rest of my life? Zhang Ailun: If my father was not a billionaire, I would definitely be happy with a few million and willing to live an ordinary life away from the world. But their father is a billionaire, but in the end they can only get a few million dollars, then they will definitely not be happy. Madison: So I am so worried now. If I had known earlier, I should have been more restrained. As someone who has been through this, I would also like to advise you that if you are just looking for the temporary novelty, it is best to take safety measures! Zhang Ailun: Man, do you have to use safety precautions with your wife? Aren't you married? Madison: So I am very distressed now and I choose to get married on impulse. Allen Zhang: How much investment does your son need? Madison: 4000 to 8000 million US dollars. If the project is carried out, more than million yuan of funds will definitely be added later. This is not a small amount. Zhang Ailun: It just so happens that I have too much cash on hand and don’t know where to use it, and I also want to find someone to do some investment projects. If the market data is suitable, I can invest in your son’s business. Madison: Are you sure? Investing is risky. What if you lose money? Zhang Ailun: Then think about what you can do to make it up to me. Are you still on the island now? Madison: Of course, you can just take a private plane over here, and my son and his family are here too. Zhang Ailun: You can tell Gwen the details of your son’s investment. She will find someone to assess the market risks. If it is appropriate, I will choose to invest. Madison: Gwen? It seems you are using her very well. She is a very capable girl. I will tell my son to contact your assistant. Allen Zhang: :). After chatting with Madison for a few more sentences and agreeing to meet at Collection Island, Zhang Allen exited the chat box and sent a message to Bailey, asking him if he had time now, and if not, he should make time to come over. Bailey: Boss, isn't it holiday? Sig and Boktu have made an appointment with me to go fishing.
Zhang Ailun: An army soldier and two airmen going fishing? You will definitely come up empty-handed today! Stop thinking about your lousy fish and come over here. Let's go to Collection Island to have fun. Bailey: Going to Madison's private island again? Partying? I'll pack my stuff and come over right away! Seeing how enthusiastic he was, Zhang Ailun was too lazy to say anything more and just replied: No need to come over, we'll meet at the airport. Bailey: OK. He got up, packed up the things in the room, took the packed gift box of silver coins, went out, locked the door, drove his Wrangler to the airport. They soon arrived at the Los Angeles airport, parked the car, and waited on the roadside for a while. Bailey also drove over in a blue BMW that he had never seen before. He made a nimble turn and backed into the garage. "Did you buy this car?" Zhang Ailun asked curiously when he saw Bailey get out of the car in a cool manner. "Uh, I guess so." Bailey scratched his head. He was wearing an air force jacket, Martin boots, and aviator sunglasses on his forehead. "What do you mean by considered?" Zhang Ailun glanced at the BMW's frame number and said, "This should be a 21-year-old BMW. Did you buy it second-hand?" "It's like this, Boss. Didn't Jimmy in Texas clear the obstacles with our help and expand his business? In addition to running the car rental shop, he also does some basic errands on weekdays, and often has luxury cars registered. Our repair shop here, except for the few orders you took us to do before, hasn't had any cars registered for a long time." Bailey answered honestly, "Just a few days ago, an informant from Mike's Modification Shop in the suburbs sent a message saying that there was a batch of smuggled luxury cars from Texas that were being cleared out, so we went to get those cars. Don't worry, Boss, that account is not for the modification shop's project, but a private project, and it will not affect our normal work and trading." Bailey said, "We have also generated hundreds of thousands of dollars in revenue for the store! But you will definitely not be impressed by this little money, so we did not inform you. However, it is all recorded in the account book. If you have time to check the accounts one day, you will definitely see everything clearly." Zhang Ailun nodded. So that's what happened. He said with relief, "You guys are doing well. Now even if I don't take the initiative to take you out to make money, you know how to find things to do for yourself. As long as there's money to be made, it's fine. But don't take too much risk!" "Of course I know that," Bailey replied. Zhang Ailun patted him on the shoulder and immediately took him back to the airport. On the way, they saw several trucks transporting containers towards the warehouse area. Bailey said in surprise, "Boss, it seems that there are new blind boxes coming. Don't you want to buy some?" "I'm not a gambler, why would I buy that stuff?" Zhang Ailun was not interested at all. "That's not what you said before..." Bailey was speechless. "I have retired from the underworld." The chief said seriously. The main reason is that the cheats are resting now. With the luck of the chief leader, it is certain that he will lose all his money. "Ok." The two chatted as they walked and soon found the hangar where the Cirrus Airship was stored. The chief also negotiated with the airport staff and after paying the balance of the storage fee, they successfully retrieved the aircraft. Bailey drove the plane out of the hangar and adjusted the electronic equipment. Zhang Allen also boarded the plane and fastened his seat belt. "Let's go to Collection Island." "Ok." Bailey put on his sunglasses and immediately pushed the gear lever to increase the horsepower. He sprinted on the runway and took off smoothly. He soon left the Los Angeles airport and flew towards Collection Island. An hour later, they arrived at the waters of Collection Island. Zhang Ailun looked out from the sky and saw the outline of the island in the distance. After communicating with the tower, Bailey informed the name list and aircraft model. After confirmation, the other party released the airspace. He controlled the plane to turn around and smoothly slowed down and landed at the island airport. "Boss, we're here." Bailey reminded. "I know." Zhang Ailun unlocked his seat belt and walked down from the plane. He saw the bulletproof car waiting in the waiting area at a glance and immediately reached out to say hello. Soon, a middle-aged man in casual clothes and a blonde lady got out of the car. They were not Madison, but they looked somewhat similar, and Zhang Ailun more or less guessed their identities. "Hello, is this Mr. Jin? My father Madison asked me to pick you up at the airport. I am the third son of the Madison family. You can call me Smith." The middle-aged man introduced himself enthusiastically and introduced the lady next to him to the chief helmsman. "This is my wife Jenny."
"Hello, Mr. Smith, Mrs. Jenny." Zhang Allen smiled and stretched out his hand to shake hands with the two. "Hamburger Juan King. This is my pilot and bodyguard Bailey." "Hello." Bailey parked the plane, walked over, nodded and greeted the couple. The two also greeted warmly, and then invited the chief to take a car to the leisure area of the villa. "My father knew in advance that Mr. Jin was coming, and he had someone prepare some red wine for his reception, but the banquet will have to wait until the evening. He also invited other friends to come over for a bonfire dinner. It's a rare opportunity for our family to get together, and we hope that Mr. Jin can stay overnight on the island." The Smiths got in the car, the former drove the car herself, and the chief sat in the back seat. Smith also eagerly invited the chief. "If I don't have anything else to do at night, spending the night on the island is indeed a good choice." Zhang Ailun smiled and nodded without refusing. The two of them started chatting. Perhaps Smith already knew that the leader was interested in investing in his club and film and television projects, so he became talkative. During the conversation, he also introduced his own business, including the brand peripheral store opened by his wife Jenny. The chief leader also maintained a calm attitude throughout, with a smile on his face, and chatted with the two of them from time to time. Turning his head to look at the scenery outside the window, he found that he had passed the villa area and said in surprise: "Is Madison at the zoo again? Is he visiting Prian?" "Well, my father is indeed obsessed with his enemy. To be honest, I also like my father's approach. After all, that guy killed one of our family members." Smith said with relief. Zhang Ailun did not comment on this. Although it was unethical to do so, it was someone else's private matter after all, so he couldn't say anything more. Soon Smith arrived at the zoo area and parked the car on the side of the road. It was not the first time that the chief came here. He got out of the car with ease and followed the Smiths, Bailey and other security personnel into the zoo. As soon as he came in, Zhang Ailan heard Madison's old and majestic voice, which made a strange sound of scolding an animal. When he walked over, he saw the old man sitting on a chair, leaning on a cane, and the waiter standing next to him was holding a plate and a thin slice of meat in his hand and throwing it on the ground. At first glance, I saw several black panther cubs rolling on the ground, fighting over and tearing pieces of meat. As for their mother, the big black panther, she was lying lazily in the cage, her eyes fixed on the black panther cubs outside. "Give birth so soon?" Zhang Ailun was a little surprised. The last time I came here, the black panther was just pregnant. I didn't expect her to give birth so soon, and gave birth to four cubs in one go. These two-day-old black panther cubs have only drunk a few sips of milk? Can they eat meat now? "Hahaha, dear Mr. Jin, you're here." When Madison heard the familiar voice, she immediately stood up and greeted him with a laugh. Zhang Ailun also nodded in response, but his attention was not on Lao Deng, but on the cubs, "Old Mai, do you still mean what you said?" "What?" Madison asked in surprise. "Give me two black panthers." Zhang Ailun spread his hands, "You won't go back on your word, will you?" "That's it? Of course it counts! These black panthers are not worth much, you can pick any one you like." Madison smiled and waved his hand generously. "Then I won't be polite, let's take these two," Zhang Ailun immediately bent down and grabbed the two black panther cubs by the scruff of their necks, his sapphire-like eyes, and scratched their bellies. The two cubs were lifted up, making terrified sounds and howling. The big black panther nearby also sat up straight upon hearing the sound, patted the iron cage, and turned around anxiously, but the chief leader found it very interesting. He turned to Bailey beside him and reminded him, "Don't forget to remind me to bring them sometimes." "Okay." Bailey was a little dumbfounded. How come he could eat and take things as soon as he got here? (End of this chapter)
