Chapter 48

Chapter 48 Prepare for a rainy day

Ended up having lunch with Michaels as well.

Abel intends to come to the company.

Annie must prepare for her audition for The Princess Diaries.

Then they dispersed.

Maybach 62s were rolling into Manhattan at noon and the streets were crowded again. Abel is looking out the window.

At that moment, the car just passed between two skyscrapers.

His vision penetrated the space between the two buildings.

I saw behind the building were two beautiful, square, high-rise commercial buildings with almost the same shape.

This made his expression twitch, then goosebumps. FXXK!

I almost forgot about that.

Isn't that Gemini?

Are they still there?

Besides, we're still in the year 2000.

There is still more than a year until September 11 next year. But

Plan ahead, it may not be your own rebirth.

Butterfly effect, if Brother Arden causes trouble first.

Isn't this the end game?

Regarding this disaster,

There are so many inside stories and conspiracy theories.

However, this will happen with a high probability. If it doesn't happen on September 11, it will happen some other time.

THEREFORE.

Abel's expression turned serious.

He is considering the possibility of staying in Manhattan in the near future.

Don't look at parallel time and space,

Gemini is not lucky. But perhaps it was a target chosen at random by Brother Arden, the pilot of the plane.

If it were Brother Arden, he wouldn't choose Gemini at this time.

Instead, they chose other buildings, like the Woolworth Building.

So hehe.

This is not impossible and the risks in this area must be taken into account. THEREFORE

In light of this, try to stay in Manhattan as little as possible.

Thinking like that, he didn't even want to go to the company.

After thinking for a while, he picked up his cell phone and called Jones.

Not Catherine Jones, the glamorous flight attendant.

Speaking of which, this sexy flight attendant hasn't come looking for her yet. The Jones he was looking for was Jones of the American Express Company.

David Jones, Director of Advanced Customer Services, New York, American Express.

Once the call is made, it is answered almost immediately.

"Hello, dear Mr. Smith. Greetings from your Director of Personal Services, David."

The tone is neither humble nor overbearing, and the content of the words is also normal. But it feels like a spring breeze, and it's worthy of someone in the service industry serving top-class guests.

"Hello, David."

Abel smiled and said: "There are two things.

"Please let me know." On the other end of the phone, David Jones was delighted.

He is not afraid that rich people will ask them to do too many things, otherwise it will be troublesome.

The more work you have to do, the more tedious and difficult it becomes.

This also means that the higher the fees, the higher American Express's revenue. The commission of such service personnel may also be increased in the same manner.

I'm afraid the rich will find these people if they have nothing to do.

Or I don't want to find them.

This is their real problem.

"First of all, please help me find an office."

"The requirement was that it not be on Manhattan Island but as close to Manhattan as possible."

He plans to change his business. While it's great to work at the Woolworth Building, the main reason is because it's on Wall Street.

But considering the following year's disaster, the Woolworth Building was also a bit old.

He had long considered changing his business. Previously he wanted to move to a newer building.

Now just walk away from Wall Street. Wall Street itself is a code name.

Not all financial capital works there.

After next year, a large number of companies will choose to leave Wall Street.

After 2010, Wall Street, geographically speaking, was almost an empty shell.

After the first request, he began to make the second request. "Second, help me find some villas, this type of villa. It doesn't have to be too close to Manhattan, but it doesn't have to be too far."

He suddenly discovered this.

My own real estate appears to be in Manhattan.

Not to mention the two gold-plated houses have obscured the beauty.

There are several other preparatory or investment properties, five in total, all in Manhattan. Before staying in Manhattan permanently, he did not own any real estate elsewhere.

That's unbelievable for an American billionaire.

It can only be said that his promotion time is still short and his experience in this aspect is not enough.

Over the past two years, all of Manhattan could be in danger.

Then live a little further away, or you can buy some more real estate to use as a warehouse. David Jones, on the other side, stopped more than three seconds after Abel finished speaking.

David replied: "No problem, when do you have time to meet him?"

"It's available now."

"Okay. It will be ready for you in an hour at the latest. Are you free?"

"Have."

An hour later, a Bell-427 helicopter took off from Manhattan and headed east.

Crossing over Brooklyn and Queens, the helicopter landed on the runway of a beachfront property in Kings Point, New York. As soon as the plane stopped completely, David Jones got off first.

After going down, he bent down slightly and reached out to help Abel up.

Abel easily jumped out of reach of the plane's propeller, looking out at the large garden in front of him.

Outside the garden is the beach and blue sea under the sun.

Across the sea is the United Nations building, looming but its outlines can be seen. Meeting his eyes, the senior service director of American Express smiled and said:

"This is the United Nations building. This villa has a total area of ​​8.2 acres, a total of 18 bedrooms, 22 bathrooms."

In the United States, when listing a property, the number of bedrooms and bathrooms is often specified.

And the more upscale American homes are, the more bathrooms they have.

In luxury homes, there are often more bathrooms than bedrooms.

It is different from national holidays, mainly because bad people like to party up and down. When there is a party there are usually many people.

There are too many people but not enough toilets.

In addition, American real estate also divides bathrooms very clearly, there will be 1.5 bathrooms, 2.5 bathrooms and 3.5 bathrooms.

The reason is that the American standard bathroom refers to the bathroom, the toilet can go into the toilet and wash, and it is considered a bathroom.

The bathroom can only go to the toilet, which is only half the cost. So there is a description of 1.5 guards.

A house with 18 bedrooms and 22 bathrooms could be considered a mansion.

Abel nodded: "Let me see."

David Jones took it respectfully and walked towards the villa.

Lin and Johnson stepped forward and took the initiative to explore the inner path.

These two bodyguards must check first to see if there is any danger ahead. Edward and Lincoln followed Abel directly.

David Jones was not surprised by this scene.

There were more bodyguards, and he also met a rich man who was more cautious.

In America, rich people are afraid of death.

People who are not afraid of death are usually the ones who actually die. (end of this chapter)
