Chapter 409 Heading to Palm Cove
Elmo was responsible for the screening of "Oscar Night", and Li Zitao took a direct flight to Florida the next day.
"Is this the big party you're talking about?" Lawrence sat on the plane and asked with a glass of wine.
"My King is docked at the Bend Islands in Port Miami, and it's full of hot girls, and after the charity dinner, you can go aboard and indulge yourself."
Tasting the absinthe made by Lily, Li Zitao winked at him with a smirk, shook his head and said, "The new Hollywood hot girls, their taste is enough to fascinate you."
"Oh, huh, Charlie, we are indeed brothers, you understand my heart too well." Lawrence sat beside him excitedly, raised his glass and laughed lightly.
"Tell me about Avril, how is your relationship?" Among the three, he and Jonathan were married, and only Lawrence remained.
Sometimes when he heard him complain that he was too busy with work and didn't even have time for a date, Li Zitao always felt uneasy.
Although the time is only two or three seconds!
"We are not suitable, I like parties, she likes musicals, I like to eat hamburgers, but she only eats grass and Coke every day, she always says, this is not healthy..."
Lawrence spread his hands innocently, and shouted with a sarcasm on his face; "God, I don't want to marry an old mother back."
"Mary's daily breakfast is only 200k strawberries and a bunch of grapes, by the way, vegetable juice, her favorite drink."
Noticing the way Lawrence looked at him, Li Zitao smiled and said, "Women always have to pay more for their figure, don't you want to hug a fat Mexican woman?"
"FK, don't mention Mexico to me," Lawrence said angrily.
"What happened?" Li Zitao frowned curiously, it was the first time he saw Lawrence so angry.
"Our hamburger restaurant in Juarez was robbed 10 times a week, 10 times. Can you believe this is true?" Lawrence raised his hands and emphasized over and over again.
As soon as the first group of robbers left, before the police arrived, the second group of robbers rushed in.
If they had no money, they would grab hamburgers, even the vegetables and butter for making hamburgers, sweeping them into bags and taking them away.
"Juárez...is it so chaotic there already?" Li Zitao was a little surprised. Drug dealers in Mexico became rampant, probably after the 1940s!
"Stealing cars, robbing, selling opium, kidnapping women, illegally smuggling, that place is turning into hell." Lawrence kept complaining.
"Doesn't the government care?" Li Zitao didn't hear Lawrence's response. He looked up and found that he was looking at him with the expression of "you're kidding me".
"...Pretend I never asked." Li Zitao shrugged.
Mexico's internal affairs are in a mess. People who really wanted to do something were shot by their own people before they died in the hands of gangsters.
So his question is indeed a bit idiotic, let's discuss something else!
"I plan to withdraw all McDonald's in Mexico." Lawrence was not in the mood to think about his party anymore, he put down his glass and pinched the bridge of his nose as he said sadly.
"If the situation is really that bad, it's better to withdraw." Being robbed 10 times a week, it would be strange if he could make money.
Like a community sunshine service, they not only brought burgers, but also provided a lot of change cash to 'cash out. '
"Human and I have already researched it. Even sending S.H.I.E.L.D. to it is useless. Those crazy guys don't care about life or death at all. They're just a bunch of lunatics."
As long as they have money, food and sex, it's okay to let them be the president of the United States, and there are not one or two such people.
There are 50,000 to 60,000 thugs in the whole city who don't care about the police, order, their own lives and tomorrow.
Being drunk today is the truest portrayal of them.
There are hundreds of underworld forces entrenched in the entire city, ranging from small gangs composed of a dozen neighbors, such as devils, skeletons, and volcanoes.
A criminal group as large as tens of thousands of people, they do all kinds of evil,
Looting a bank, machine gunning the police, blowing up a government building, there's nothing they're afraid to do.
For this kind of person, even if you send S.H.I.E.L.D., it will have no effect other than triggering a war. Even if you can kill the biggest boss, someone will replace him immediately.
And his organization will split from one to fifty or hundreds, and the situation will only become more chaotic.
Besides, if such a big scene is really going to happen, the profit from selling hamburgers is not even enough to pay for the bullets.
"Or you can try to buy it and share the profit?" Li Zitao put forward a new suggestion.
"You think I haven't tried it? Know what the bloody Mexicans say?"
Lawrence put his hands on his waist and said in a weird tone; "FK you idiot American pig, we have burritos and chicken here, no need for your nasty, disgusting, dirty burgers, go back to your California."
"..." That's a great answer.
By the time the plane landed, Lawrence had decided to pull all the burger joints out of Mexico, and Subway's expansion plans would cross the hell out of the country.
"Wait a little longer, close the store first, let the employees go back to rest, and give me a week." Li Zitao didn't tell him what to do, only that there might be a solution.
"Okay, I'll listen to you." Lawrence took the goggles from Lily and said happily; "Thank you, Lily, Charlie is such a lucky bastard."
"It's my luck to know him." Lily smiled softly.
Satisfied, he raised his eyebrows at Lawrence who turned his head, and the two took the car sent by the hotel and drove to Palm Bay.
Palm Bay belongs to the Melbourne area, where high-end residences, beautiful beach houses, and rows of coconut trees are all the characteristics of this place.
People who live here are upper middle class, their family income is about 200,000 U.S. dollars a year, and their occupations are mostly lawyers, judges, doctors, and managers of large companies.
They are top figures in their respective industries, very representative, and can be said to be the most successful group of people in this industry.
In their lives, big names and famous boutiques are daily necessities.
These people are scattered in the Palm Bay area, and the houses look very luxurious, but they are all away from the beach.
It is the territory of the rich and the rich, such as a descendant of a famous family, who has his personal fund from the moment he is born.
When you meet the conditions after you become an adult, you can activate it, and you can receive tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of living expenses every month.
Even if they do nothing for a lifetime, it is enough for them to maintain a luxurious life.
Just like Jonathan's stepmother, although he kicked him out of the house, she can still receive a huge alimony of $500,000 a year from the Astor family fund.
As long as she does not choose to remarry, the money can be received when she dies.
This is Astor IV's will, and Jonathan has no right to change it after taking control of the family power, unless he wants to go to court.
With his dead father, overturning his will in court, no matter whether it succeeds or not, the Astor family will become a laughing stock.
So compared to this, he is willing to provide an annual fee of $500,000.
