Chapter 96: Brilliance Will Eventually Decline

Li Zitao opened his mouth, and was thinking about whether he should have a "vasectomy," when he saw her smile suddenly, and said teasingly, "Happy April Fool's Day, Boss."

"..." On a goddamned April Fool's Day, Li Zitao was in a bad mood.

"My mother wants to hit someone now, the kind she really wants to do." Returning to District 22 with a depressed face, Li Zitao pulled Hans to "warm up." '

What he wanted to find most was Wang Dagou, but who knew that he happened to be absent, so he could only wrong the most powerful instructor Hans.

bang bang bang—

There was a fierce collision on the training ground, Hans didn't intend to hold back the slightest bit, and he tried his best with every punch.

Having had many sparring experiences with Li Zitao, he understands a truth very well: "Before the BOSS exerts its strength, how many punches can be punched, and more than two punches are considered earned."

Boom!

A heavy punch hit his arms blocking his face, and Hans flew backwards as usual, rubbing his arms with a wry smile on his face.

Although it felt a little tingling, he knew that it was already considered gentle, otherwise he could buy a ticket and go back to country D to see an orthopedic surgeon, let alone rubbing his arms.

"Where did Jack go?" The bandage-wrapped fists swung randomly in the air, and the sound of 'whoosh' could be heard every time.

Every time he competes with others, he can't use his full strength, and Li Zitao can only fully release his monster-like power when playing with 'air'.

"The chief instructor took people to Mexico, where someone discovered the woman who cheated Lawrence before." Hans wiped off his cold sweat and said.

To be honest, standing next to Li Zitao, he was under a lot of pressure, afraid that the fist that exploded the air would hit his forehead with a 'huh'.

"Woman?" Li Zitao stopped his movements, stretched his shoulders and said, "Laura?"

"That's her." Hans nodded.

"You are really persistent. I thought you all gave up on the investigation." Li Zitao lowered his head and said as he untied the bandage.

"..." Brother, you're fucking kidding me!

Didn't you personally order that woman to be brought back?

"Jessie." Seeing Li Zitao waving at the elk, Hans left with interest.

When the two were practicing against each other just now, he saw several new students giggling, "Hey, I can't beat the big devil, but I can give you a taste of the iron fist."

"Has anything happened recently?" The responsibility of the secretary's office is to connect with the think tank and the property under his name, and it is also his other pair of eyes.

"Ah~ nothing happened!" the little elk said, blinking.

"..." Damn it, Li Zitao felt that if he faced her every day, he would lose ten years of his life.

"What happened to the think tank recently?"

"Oh!" Bowing his head, he found a palm-sized notepad inlaid with gemstones in his small satchel. The little elk said seriously: "The stock market continues to absorb and hold shares in the company. The franchise of McDonald's is open and is under preliminary review. Ace Energy..."

Looking at the thumb-sized emerald on the notepad, Li Zitao's eyes twitched.

You are so fucking inflated to the limit, the pen used by your boss is only 7 dollars, and look at you, even the notepad is inlaid with gems...

After listening to the report of Swelling Deer, Li Zitao found that there was no discrepancy with the report of the think tank. The only difference was that the think tank did not mention that Roosevelt had been to Chicago.

And he didn't come alone, he also brought in another member, Jonathan Fiddy Astor from a fallen family.

Astor family, once the richest man in the world, American fur tycoon and real estate tycoon.

Since Astor I accumulated huge wealth through fur and foreign import and export trade, the Astor family has always been one of the most famous and famous families in the United States.

His family once monopolized the fur trade in North America and Europe.

When Astor I was in his sixtieth year, he foresaw that the developing New York would become the world's top city in the future.

So this shrewd old man who single-handedly built his family into a famous family,

Close all the business at hand and use all the money to buy land in Manhattan.

I have to admit that this old man is a bit of a god, and he hit the treasure directly. The development speed of Manhattan shocked the families who were waiting to see the joke.

Astor II became the famous "King of New York." How rich was the Astor family at that time?

The family owns more than a thousand stores and residences in New York, and its family prestige has thus climbed to its peak.

For a while, if you wanted to step into the upper class of America, no matter what steel magnate, railroad magnate, or oil magnate you were, you had to get the approval of the Astor family first.

By the time of the third generation of the family, there were some unavoidable tearing problems of the rich and powerful, so they left country Y in one line, and returned to country D in one line.

The line that holds the greatest wealth remains in the United States, that is, Astor IV.

At this time, the Astor family was still in its heyday, and the fourth generation was a qualified heir and leader of the family.

It's a pity that this shrewd and courageous successor has a bit of bad luck.

Speaking of the Titanic, everyone must know that Astor IV is one of the financial donors of this palace on the sea.

Then……

"The boat is ready, bosses, hurry up and install it!" the shipping company shouted enthusiastically.

clatter...

A group of local tyrants boarded the boat.

The final result was just like the history of the previous life, the boat crashed into the iceberg.

I don’t know if anyone remembers that in the movie "Titanic", when the ship was about to sink, the old gentleman who refused to board the ship was originally Astor IV.

Of course, the reality is not that he refused to board the ship, but that after he sent his wife and children on board, there was no room on the ship.

With the wealth and influence of King Astor IV at the time, he could have asked the crew to "please" the next lady who "voluntarily abdicated".

But instead of doing that, he decided to wait for the next lifeboat.

At this point, I have to admire the old man's awareness, it was really incredible in those days! !

Unfortunately, time was not kind to him, the huge steel hull sank, and the vortex rolled up made Artes IV die.

Artes IV is dead, but the family background is still there, and its wealth has not been affected in the slightest. Not to mention the fluctuation of land prices, just collecting rent is enough to blow the sky away.

Next, ahem, knock on the blackboard to draw the key points!

"When it comes to being a deadly little expert, who would I be!!"

Vincent Astor, the eldest son of the IV and his designated heir to the family.

How can I say this eldest son's character?

Extreme, cowardly, low self-esteem, a luxury trip, karma~ Dad is gone.

Back home again, karma~~ become the head of the family.

"I, Astor, pay money!" The boy swelled instantly.

Grandpa wants to start a business, grandpa wants to stand up, shoulder to shoulder with the sun, let those of you who look down upon me see how talented and powerful I am, Vincent.

The biggest catalyst here is to talk about his stepmother, who escaped death and returned to the United States, opened the will and read, mmp!

My old lady is actually allocated such a little property, you old stingy, come on, sit up for me, let's have a good chat!

It is impossible to sit up. Can you sit up without people?

So this unwilling stepmother preached that Vincent was a waste, that he had no ability to maintain the glory of the Astor family, let alone accomplish anything.

The young man refuses to accept it, let's do it!

Starting a business requires capital, and the Astor family has limited cash, and most of the funds are under the control of the family trust, so Vincent can't move.

But it doesn't matter, there are plenty of ways to kill a young expert.

The Astor family has the most things, land, I am the king of New York land.

Selling the land, um...it's such a happy decision.

He sold it in the prime location of Times Center for US$2.37 million.

He also sold the high-end apartment on Park Avenue for 1.88 million dollars.

He sold the land where the Empire State Building was being built for $7.65 million.

Sell, sell, sell, and you can get 40 million US dollars at once by being a dead little expert.

With the funds, come on, let's do it!

Hiccup, sorry.

Hiccup, I lost again.

Li Zitao doesn't know what the Astor family thinks, if he were Astor IV, the coffin might not be able to hold it down.

"I've left you such a great fortune, I'm going to lose it in three to five years of your fucking life." Heroic Spirit Astor IV Blood Slaughter.

Seeing the failure of starting a business, the young man Vincent became depressed: "My family doesn't support me, my stepmother hates me every day, my wife doesn't understand me, divorce!"

You must know that for wealthy families, divorce is an expensive matter.

When Vincent divorced once, a quarter of his family property was taken away.

Who made this buddy rich and self-willed, never playing with the prenuptial agreement, "We are true love."

When a newcomer starts, it must be passionate. This second wife understands and supports Vincent very well, knowing that the young man wants to be an 'Internet celebrity.' '

"You can change the method and do charity." The dead assistant went online.

Vincent is bright, yes, I can still do charity!

...

"Hey, I'm really drunk with such a prodigal thing at the stall." Li Zitao couldn't think about it anymore, and his blood pressure should soar to 220 in a while.

Anyway, Vincent is still on the road to death, but his family can't stand it anymore.

Especially the unwilling stepmother: "I want to share more property, not for you to bankrupt the Astor family!"

Thus, there was the appearance of Jonathan.

Forgot to introduce, this Jonathan Astor is the illegitimate son of King Astor IV.

"Fei Di! Look at your brother, that idiot. If you go on like this, the Astor family pills, you hurry up and seize power!" said the earnest stepmother.

With the support of the stepmother and the trust fund, Jonathan returned to the Astor family and began to fall in love with his half brother.

Well, the story of the Astor family can be written as a long novel, which is wonderful.

However, the performance of this Jonathan is impressive. In just 2 years, the assets allocated to him have doubled. He is a proper talent.

Why do you say the trust fund supports Jonathan?

Because their interests are also lost!

The family trust fund can take 25% of these land rents and inject them into the foundation every year to expand the capital of the trust fund.

But look at what Vincent has done, he's not selling eggs, he's so crazy that he even sold the old hen that laid eggs.

The capital injection of trust funds has been falling year after year. It is important to know that the larger the capital of trust funds, the higher their profits, and the higher the dividends and commissions they get.

Cutting off people's money is like killing their parents, "Young man, do you think I want to fuck you?"

As for the relationship between the Astor family and the Roosevelt family, as early as Astor IV, he and Roosevelt became relatives by marriage.

It was not Roosevelt that Li Zitao knew, but his late cousin, Theodore Roosevelt, the 26th President of the United States.
