America’s Road To Wealth

  Chapter 158 Nobody

  The entire Smith Building cheered.

   This is because in the subsequent.

  Their boss announced with a smile the bonus of each Smith Capital employee during this period.

  Including the security staff who served in the Smith Building during this period, and even the cleaning staff.

  All received corresponding red envelope bonuses, ranging from one thousand to one hundred thousand dollars.

  Only this morning, Abel spent millions of dollars in Smith Capital as a red envelope reward.

   This is very uncommon in Wall Street.

  In Wall Street, those who have the strength to pay bonuses like this are those giants.

  The giants are all listed companies, and the shareholder relationship behind them is extremely complicated.

  It is impossible for them, and they will not spend a lot of money, for such rewards as daily red envelopes.

  In those small and medium-sized companies, the bosses are all cheapskates.

  The bonus they can get at the end of the year is already their greatest generosity.

  In summary, it can basically be said that like Abel, an extra bonus will be issued once or twice a month.

  Bosses with high amounts are definitely rare.

   The reason for this is mainly two reasons.

  One is Abel's soul, which is half of the heavenly people.

  People from the Celestial Dynasty feel good after making money, and those who are more generous will be happy.

   Another reason is that for Abel, money is sometimes easier than the wind.

   Money is easy to come by and spent generously.

  Furthermore, Abel doesn’t think he has much charisma as a leader.

  Business management capabilities are even more of a mess.

  In this case, I want to gain the loyalty and effectiveness of my subordinates.

   What is the best way?

  Chicken soup? Painting cake?

  Sorry, he won't.

  He only uses checks that smell like ink and are stamped with the signatures of those big banks to win people's hearts.

  I give money, and you do things for me.

   It's that simple.

   This is the practice of a simple, new, not so mature and stable capitalist.

  He doesn't want to talk about feelings, feelings are the most expensive.

   "Hoo~"

   In Abel's office, he hasn't left for nearly a week.

  David Mellon, who looked a little sloppy, couldn't help but let out a long breath.

   This long, tense, exciting, and extremely exciting battle for capital.

it's finally over.

   And it ended with a big victory, which made David Mellon extremely happy at the moment.

   But the most important thing is actually this profit, which will increase David's personal income by tens of millions of dollars.

  The dividends of tens of millions of dollars are the most important reason why he can be so excited and work so hard for so long.

  Money is the best stimulant.

   This is the same everywhere.

   "Take a good rest. It's your turn to be busy tomorrow." Abel looked at his most capable subordinate on Wall Street, and he said with a smile.

  He still values ​​David Mellon very much.

  Not to mention other things, these seven days have been staring at the trading floor all the time.

  And when buying, selling and closing positions, make zero mistakes.

  Abel couldn’t do this kind of thing by himself.

  In Wall Street, there are not many people who can do it, and they are all the top executives of those giants.

   What's more, David Mellon has also brought him a lot of help in terms of contacts on the east coast.

   "I understand. How is Merio's preparation?" David also smiled.

   "There is no need to worry about Merio's ability to work in this area." Abel said with a smile.

   What the two of them were talking about was about Smith Capital’s end-of-year reception.

  When David entered the safe house state and no longer communicated with the outside world.

  The preparations for Smith Capital’s meeting at the end of the year were handed over to the deputy general manager Merio.

  Melio, the deputy general manager of Smith Capital, is often not in the company.

  The old fat man has been busy with some logistical work assigned to him by Abel all day, mainly in New York.

  For example, the preparations for this year-end reception.

   There is also the preparation for the ISA show in Times Square of Isha Company.

   At the same time, we must do a good job in the logistics of Smith Capital.

  These tasks may seem unimportant, but they are actually picked out at random.

  Ordinary people are difficult to do.

  Melio can do it all, and do it very quickly.

   This is his personal ability.

   "Then I'll go back first?" David Mellon said to Abel after confirming the problem of the reception tomorrow night.

  Abel nodded: "Except for those who can't stay on duty, other employees should take a day off today."

   David nodded, he was really tired too.

   lasted a week, only three to four hours of sleep a day.

   Tired and sleepy, drink a lot of coffee to refresh yourself.

  This kind of life, although money is used as a stimulant to stimulate.

   But afterwards, it was really tiring.

   No wonder some Wall Street workers sometimes choose to eat flour.

  Sometimes coffee can't even lift your spirits.

   Can't slack off.

   Wouldn’t it just be big ingredients?

  Wall Street is like this.

   David left.

  Abel also stood up and left the Smith Building after a while.

   Get out of the warm interior, before getting into the car.

  Wear warm clothes that don't look bulky.

  But being blown by the cold wind outside, Abel missed the neither hot nor cold climate in Los Angeles.

  He's ready.

  After the reception tomorrow night is over, go to Los Angeles to avoid the cold!

  I’ll be back at the end of December when Isha shows, and then go to Los Angeles after Christmas.

  In the winter here in New York, as long as nothing happens, Abel feels that he will never stay here again!

  Thinking like this, he got into Lincoln City in the middle of the convoy and left the Smith Building.

   At this time, it was still around 11:00 in the morning, and the rush hour of traffic jams in New York had not yet come.

  Before the rush hour, Abel's motorcade arrived at the Ted Lena Building at 40 Wall Street.

  In the lobby of the Ted Lener Building, he saw a smiling father and daughter who stood together with D. Ted Lerner to welcome him.

   "Hi~Mr. Smith, good afternoon! Welcome to Ted Lena Mansion, come to my kingdom~"

  Ikana's father walked in as soon as he saw Abel and his party.

  He walked towards them enthusiastically, and shouted loudly from a long distance away.

   This immediately attracted other people in the lobby who came and went to and from the Ted Lena Building.

  Ikana could only smile wryly behind her father.

  Papa’s character, I’m afraid that others will not know that Abel Smith came to Ted Lena today.

  But Ikana thought about it and knew why her father would do this.

  In recent months, due to the bank loans over the past few years, they have been due one after another.

  D Ted Lerner's cash flow capital chain suddenly became tense.

  Sudden rupture is unlikely, but life is not as comfortable as before.

  This is also the reason why D. Ted Lerner can no longer support his daughter's YKM.

   Thanks to D. Ted Lerner's previous "excellent" performances.

  The bank is willing to lend him a loan.

   But in terms of repaying the loan, D. Ted Lerner has always been ruthless.

  Recent payments have forced D. Ted Lerner to sell some properties.

   Fortunately, they are all minor problems, that is, cash flow will become very tight.

under these circumstances.

   People like Abel know that he is rich, and a tycoon with a lot of cash comes to his door.

   No matter which angle you stand on, D. Ted Lerner will of course be very welcome.

   What's more, D. Ted Lerner was probably thinking about it too, when Abel came to the door.

   Create a good relationship between himself and Abel, and then use this relationship.

  Let those guys on Wall Street not be so ruthless in chasing debts.

  Who is Abel? Now, he is a big baby in the eyes of many people on Wall Street.

   "Hello, Mr. Lerner." Abel smiled and shook hands with the tall blond old white man.

   After the handshake, it was Ikana's turn to come from behind.

   When it was Ikana's turn, Abel was more than just shaking hands.

  He hugged him directly, and with Ikana's shy expression, gave him a kiss on the face.

  D. Ted Lerner saw it from the side, and suddenly this thought came to his mind——

  【This is obviously a problem. Ikana still told me that what was reported in the media was just gossip, and it was fake! Hehe. Let me just say, no man can refuse my daughter's charm. 】

  After the kissing ceremony.

  The three of them, their assistants and entourages, quickly left the crowded lobby of the Ted Lena Building.

   Stay longer, New York paparazzi with a keen sense of smell.

   It is estimated that they will come to the door soon.

   ".Oh~ You have found the right person for this matter."

   "Mr. Smith! Dare I say, nobody knows New York real estate better than I do!"

  “.”

   Ted Lener Building,

  A spacious conference hall.

  On the round conference table.

  D. Ted Lerner gestured with one hand, which he always loved, and said something, but his eyes were looking at his daughter and Abel who were sitting very close.

  D Ted Lerner once again confirmed that these two people must have an affair!

   "So tell me, Mr. Smith, what piece of New York real estate would you like to know about?"

   "Or do you want to buy some luxury houses? My company also has intermediary business."

   "Last time the newspaper said that you bought a $65 million house, you definitely bought it too expensive!"

   "If you came to me at that time, I only need 50 million US dollars, and I can help you get it!"

   "I have to stress this one more time! No one understands the real estate industry in New York better than me!"

   Watch Ted Lener, who is ebullient, vocal, and energetic.

  Abel smiled lightly.

   This time he came to the Ted Lena Building, looking for Ikana by the way.

  The main purpose is really to find Ted Lener.

   Of course it wasn't for hugging the thigh. At this time, Ted Lener had a fart thigh that could be hugged.

  Ted Lener at this time is just an ordinary one among the many rich men in New York.

   More because of his multiple bankruptcies, as well as his outrageous and upstart performance on TV.

   Let many old New York money regard him as a shame for the rich in New York.

   To be honest, considering the situation of Ted Lena's family, if Ted Lener's performance is a little better.

  To his life, to Ikana's life.

   They can be regarded as one of the old money in New York.

  But Ted Lener's performance over the years still makes them look like nouveau riche.

   Not accepted by the old money in New York, and outside the circle of rich people in New York.

  Abel came to Ted Lena, just like Ted Lener said.

  He wants to know about the real estate industry in New York.

  Secondly, I came to see Ikana by the way.

  He wants to eat a large pear.

   "Okay, Mr. Lerner."

  Abel smiled and said:

   "What I mainly want to know is actually only Manhattan, especially the situation of the land near Central Park."

  If you want to buy a house or luxury house, of course you can also find Ted Lena Group.

   In terms of price and agency fees, it may be cheaper, but not necessarily.

but

  The house purchased through the Ted Lena Group, Ikana will definitely know the situation.

  Ikana is also helping her father now, dealing with some matters of the Ted Lena Group.

   Abel was unwilling to do this.

  He really wants to buy a house, and most of it is also used to hide the beauty in the golden house.

  How can Ikana know about this kind of place?

  Because of what Ikana did in parallel time and space.

  To be honest, Abel is somewhat defensive towards Ikana.

  This girl has too much ambition, too much action, and too much self-control.

  But it doesn't seem very smart.

   "Manhattan land. Also near Central Park"

   Ted Lener pondered for a moment, and the tall old man said:

   "I don't know Mr. Smith, what do you want to use the land for?"

  Abel spoke frankly:

"Two purposes. One is to build a building that belongs to me. My company is growing more and more, and it will be more convenient to use one building to work together. Here, it is like Mr. Lerner's Ted Lerner Building Same."

  “The other one is to develop houses. I think some houses in Manhattan make me very dissatisfied. I want to buy land and develop houses by myself.”

   His previous purpose was fine.

  Building a company headquarters building in Manhattan is something that any powerful company or rich man dreams of.

   In Manhattan, there is a skyscraper of its own.

   This is a symbol of strength in the United States.

   Ted Lener knew that Abel was very rich.

  It was not surprising that he would have such thoughts about Abel.

  His own Ted Lena Building, is the best expression of this approach.

  But Ted Lena couldn't understand Abel's latter purpose.

   "Develop housing by yourself?" Ted Lener was curious: "Do you build it to live in?"

"I will live by myself. But I will also take it for example." Abel smiled: "Mr. Lerner, next to Central Park, build the world's tallest residential building with a height of 1776 feet kind of. What do you think?"

   "1776 feet?" Ted Lener frowned, "I don't think so."

   "That is too high. The technical difficulty will be very high, and the amount of capital will be too large."

   "In addition, all of New York in the United States, Gemini 1 is the tallest now. It is only 1725 feet including the antenna. 1776 is even higher than Gemini 1."

  After Ted Lener finished speaking, he asked Abel curiously.

   "Why is it exactly 1776 feet? Since it is going to be that high, wouldn't it be better than 1800 feet, or 1900 feet?"

   "Why is it 1776 feet." Abel smiled and said:

   "Because our country was established in 1776."

   "Wow, that's right. You're right." Ted Lener was startled when he heard that, and then his thick eyebrows felt like they were going to fly.

   "It's cool, it's very, very cool. If it could be built, I guarantee it would be the coolest building in the whole of America! 1776 feet, that's just a really cool number!"

   "Mr. Smith, I have to admit that you are a genius. I think if you develop in the real estate industry, you can also do well!"

   Abel smiled.

  He said in his heart: Nonsense, the tallest building in the United States in the future in parallel time and space is this number

   If he didn't remember this, he really wouldn't know how to use the number 1776.

   This number still has a certain special meaning in the United States.

   Same as 1949.

   "To build such a tall building, the land area required is not small."

   Ted Lener pondered and said: "It is not easy to find such a large open space in Manhattan."

   It's 2000, not 1900.

  At this time, Manhattan was already very expensive, and the core area was filled with high-rise buildings.

   Among them, the land around Central Park is even more scarce.

   Even if you are rich, you can get a large area of ​​land.

  Abel smiled and said:

   "That's why I found you, Mr. Tedler."

   "As you said, I also feel that in New York, no one knows the real estate industry better than you."

   "Aha~"

   Ted Lener laughed.

   "You're right, Mr. Smith. No one knows New York real estate better than I do."

   "Okay. I'll keep an eye out for you. Later, I'll ask someone to make a list of the land that Manhattan can currently build on, and then send it to your company."

   "No problem." Abel reciprocated, saying:

   "As long as I can get the land, then the construction of the building and the residence must also involve the Ted Lena Group."

   "I remember Ikana said that the construction company of Ted Lena Group is very good."

   Ted Lener immediately said:

   "You are right. No other construction company can be better than mine!"

   While speaking, Ted Lener looked at his daughter slightly appreciatively.

   It’s not like pulling the arms out completely.

  After talking about business.

  The atmosphere that followed was even more relaxed.

   Ted Lener is a very talkative person.

   When chatting in private, he doesn't look like the nouveau riche on TV at all.

  Although his words are a little "dry", they are also well-founded, which is in line with a normal person's impression of a New York billionaire.

   Except for the occasional "no one is better than me xx" that pops up occasionally.

  Abel doesn’t think that Ted Lener is much worse than Bloomberg and the like.

   Ted Lener is obviously a smart guy.

  After chatting for a while.

  The rich man, who was about the same age as Abel's father Alexander Smith, got up and left with a smile, saying that he still had a meeting at noon.

  Leaving enough private space for his daughter and Abel.

  After he left.

  Abel is not worried about the cameras in the conference room either.

   walked directly to Ikana, pulled a chair over, sat beside her and hugged her.

   "There is surveillance," Ikana said softly.

   "It's your family's surveillance. Your father won't secretly spy on us, will he?"

  That's hard to say. Ikana thought to herself.

  Then she heard Abel smile and say:

   "By the way. Look at Mr. Lerner's appearance. You don't seem to have told him about the relationship between the two of us?"

  Ikana squinted at him, "The relationship between the two of us? What kind of relationship is it?"

  Abel was confident: "Of course it's a couple's relationship!"

  Ikana was a little surprised.

  This bastard, trying to find ways to pua himself.

   Get yourself hooked.

   Afterwards, he was not what Ikana imagined at all.

  Like a boyfriend in a normal boyfriend and girlfriend, cling to her as a girlfriend.

  Although it is not necessary to remove x and leave, it does not mean to go whoring for nothing.

  But she just doesn't take the initiative, she insists on taking the initiative.

   Only when she is greedy for her body, will she take the initiative to come over

  Facing Abel like this, Ikana has a headache.

   Let's break up, reluctant.

  The body is all given out.

   What's more, no matter how you look at it, Abel's high quality is a bit too much.

  The kind that is more perfect than the Ruyi Langjun she had imagined before.

   Find a way to tease him pua, this guy eats sugar-coated spit cannonballs.

  Every time she is herself, she is so confused.

   Dare to say anything in a daze.

   Baba called it many times

   Hard ones, soft ones, this made Ikana helpless.

   For half a month, she had doubted whether she could really achieve her wish.

  She wondered if it was wrong for her to do so.

  If the sunk cost is not too high.

  And he was reluctant to bear the various resources brought by Abel.

  There is also the extravagant hope that if it succeeds.

  Ikana, who has strong self-control, wants to retreat.

  Now in his mouth, he heard his unmistakable acknowledgment of the relationship between the two parties.

   Ikana will naturally be surprised.

   "Do you dare to say these words in front of my father?" Ikana wanted to provoke him, "Do you dare to announce them in front of the public?"

  Ikana wanted to stimulate him.

   Use a little aggressive method.

   But it made her see Abel's shameless side again.

  Abel justly said:

   "Why dare not? I have always said in the media that I have hundreds of girlfriends, and that every American girl can be my girlfriend!"

   "Ikana, my dear. Go find me the media right away! I will definitely tell them that you are my girlfriend in front of them!"

  Ikana was speechless.

   Yes, she believed Abel would.

  But if there are other shameless women who also find the media.

   Ikana thinks.

   There is a high probability that Abel will tell the media that Bichi is also his girlfriend in front of other media!

  Ikana has no doubts about this.

  He will definitely do it!
