Chapter 84

"Of course, buddy," Frank said excitedly, "if we can sell these twenty fancy colored diamonds, we can get at least $580,000.

Keep 280,000 as a spare, and use the remaining 300,000 US dollars as capital. After going to Sierra Leone a few times, we will all be millionaires.

Buying a seaside villa in Miami, buying a yacht, and enjoying life is what we should do in the future."

"hehe".

Li Changheng smiled contemptuously.

However, Frank is only 16 years old at this time, and it is normal to be satisfied with a million dollars.

But now that he has seen the movie Blood Diamond, Li Changheng knows very well that the value of flawless colored diamonds is at least five times, or even ten times that of flawless white diamonds.

This batch of diamonds sold for less than one million dollars, so he swallowed them all.

A million dollars was only worth £250,000 in 1968.

And with Frank's attitude, even if you give him a million dollars, he will spend almost the same in a few years, and finally have to think about how to make money again.

However, this matter has nothing to do with Li Changheng, unless Frank is willing to be a younger brother, otherwise why should he keep taking care of him.

"Diamonds for me".

Frank froze for a moment, then quickly came to his senses and said, "No problem, you are in charge of sales, and I am in charge of shipping diamonds."

Li Changheng, who was always tempted, put all twenty colored diamonds into his pocket with satisfaction.

"I'll give you two hundred thousand dollars, is there a problem?"

"No problem, of course no problem".

Frank has a third share of the colored diamonds. Now Li Changheng has given an extra 6,700 US dollars, and he can get the cash soon, of course he is satisfied.

The two found a hotel and opened two rooms to live in.

At ten o'clock the next morning, I packed two hundred thousand dollars in old bills to Frank from the safe of the UBS New York branch.

Li Changheng smiled and said, "If you really plan to follow me to make money, go to London today and stay at the Ward Hotel near Knightsbridge, and I will find you within a week."

"no problem".

Frank smirked and held tens of thousands of dollars in one hand. The money was in his hand. Of course, Li Changheng would do what he said.

Even if he didn't know why Li Changheng asked him to go to London, the 200,000 old banknotes in front of him were not fake.

And he was faintly worried that this alumnus and friend in front of him was so poor two months ago that he didn't even have the money to take the bus or eat dinner.

But now it has only been two months, and he unexpectedly took out a full two hundred thousand dollars in cash.

Doesn't that mean that Li Changheng himself has other ways to make money, and it seems that the money is very easy to earn?

no.

Frank decided in an instant that before he became a millionaire,,,.

No, 200,000 is right in front of me, a million seems a bit small.

Just set a high point, five million?

Or before becoming a multi-millionaire, never break up with Li Changheng.

Even if you can only get one-third each time, it is more profitable than being a lone ranger.

Moreover, last night he saw Li Changheng actually wearing a holster, the bright silver M1911, which made him envious and fond of it, and at the same time he didn't dare to disobey Li Changheng.

The gun was exposed, and Frank didn't believe that Li Changheng did it unintentionally.

This was clearly a warning to himself that he would be stupid to fight for the position of boss at this time with a person who was crushed by force and had a smarter brain than himself.

After earning enough money, I won't play with you anymore.

With the price of being a younger brother for a few years, in exchange for 10 million U.S. dollars, then who will work for whom has to be discussed separately!

Frank comforted himself in his heart, then carried his backpack, followed Li Changheng's suggestion, and deposited the money in UBS.

With a stack of checkbooks and $10,000 in cash, I took a taxi to the airport.

For Li Changheng, the sales channels are ready-made. As for Frank, who is willing to do the most dangerous thing of transporting diamonds, why doesn't he make money when he has money?

After sending Frank away, he recalled the memory of yesterday, and soon thought of the house number of Corleone's house in Long Island.

In addition to better facilities and services, staying in a luxury hotel has other conveniences.

I told the front desk that I wanted to visit my business partner at No. 4562, Long Island, but I wanted to make a phone call to confirm the other party's itinerary before the visit.

Within two minutes, he got the phone number of Corleone Manor.

Checked out, drove back to the secret rented house, took the Remington M700 to a hardware store.

I spent money to buy a lot of tools and a 100-meter-long telephone line, and drove around the Corleone Manor a few times to find a few suitable observation points.

It took more than an hour to climb up the fourth big tree suitable for observation with a telescope.

I thought there was no chance to scare and warn Mike and others.

Unexpectedly, in the manor, where the doors and windows had been tightly closed, someone suddenly opened a window.

Busily looking through the binoculars, I saw Sonny with natural curly hair and big and small eyes appearing by the window.

Without hesitation, he sneaked into a villa, and used the wire he bought to pull a phone to a big tree.

Set up the M700, adjust the 10x scope, and the distance is less than 80 meters, so that Li Changheng can easily see Sonny, Mike, Tom Megan and a fat man through the scope, and said in the room that should be the study with what

Li Changheng smiled, and started calling Corleone Manor.

It was Corleone Sr.'s adopted son, Tom Hagan, a lawyer and military adviser, who answered the phone.

"I went to Mike Corleone and told him it was a doctor friend in a white coat who was looking for him."

After Tom finished listening, he looked at Mike sitting in the study in puzzlement, and then recalled what happened in the hospital last night.

And Sonny, who was standing by the window angrily because he couldn't find the leader of the Tattaglia family,

He asked dissatisfiedly, "Tom, who is calling?"

Tom covered the microphone, "It's for Mike, and the other party said that he is a doctor friend in a white coat."

Mike Corleone stood up as soon as he heard it, walked quickly to take the microphone,

"I'm Mike Corleone, what's your order?"

This tone and attitude immediately surprised Sonny Corleone and a fat man.

But Sonny, despite his grumpiness, wasn't really a fool.

I also recalled what happened in the hospital last night, there were two more people captured alive, one killer who was stabbed to death.

Although Mike was ordered by Old Corleone not to reveal anything about Li Changheng.

So the only ones who actually saw Li Changheng's face were old Corleone and Mike, and even the nurse only said that the man should be young, and had no clues other than that.

What is his name, where he was born, and what kind of relatives are in the family.

"You prepare one million US dollars in old bills, we have a business deal, see you on the platform of the subway station in Times Square in an hour."

"Understood", Mike agreed without hesitation, "see you at the Times Square subway station in an hour."

And he would be so forthright. On the one hand, Li Changheng did save old Corleone yesterday, and to be honest, he also saved him by the way.

Second, he misunderstood the business that Li Changheng wanted to talk about, which was related to the vendetta of the five major families.

In such a tense moment, the family has a powerful helper, let alone a million dollars, he is willing to pay five million dollars.

It's a pity that Li Changheng doesn't intend to get involved in the affairs of the mafia, and saving old Corleone is only for the future.

If Frank hadn't brought back twenty diamonds, he would be in London today, or tomorrow.
