Chapter 560: Actively Submit
Frank can't do anything in prison. How he gets out in the end depends on Gao Guang's choice.
I don't know how Victoria Club charges. Although Gao Guang and Ashford have agreed on the price, I don't know whether Victoria Club will charge any fees.
The Victoria Club only has money transactions with members. So how should Gao Guang, the investor who borrows the membership status, and Ashford, the service provider, settle the bill in advance? This needs to be clarified in advance.
"How much money do I need to choose the second option and how will I pay you?"
"The total amount is one million US dollars, all expenses are included, and I will settle with the club."
Ashford gave a very clear answer. As expected, Victoria Club may be just an intermediary or a third-party trading platform, but the club's control is still very strong.
There was nothing more to say. Just pay the money and wait patiently. Gao Guang shook hands with Ashred and said, "Then I'll leave the things here to you. Please tell me if you have any news. Goodbye."
Shaking hands and saying goodbye, after Ashred drove away first, Mike spread his arms and said at the door of the prison with a look of helplessness: "Is it over?"
"Yes, it's over. One million dollars is really not a lot, right?"
"It's a lot. There are a few people who can come up with one million, but according to the difficulty of this kind of thing, one million is really not a lot."
Mike scratched his face, then he lowered his voice and said, "Boss, I know I can't ask too much about this kind of thing, but do you think I will be qualified to join this kind of club in the future?"
"The threshold of one billion dollars, if you can cross it..."
Before Gao Guang finished speaking, Mike shook his head again and again and said, "No, no, this is not money The problem is not just about money. This is a threshold of identity and status, not a threshold of money. "
After saying that, Mike said with expectation: "If Victoria Club can solve my problem as easily as rescuing people, then can I play basketball soon?"
"I think so, there must be no problem." After comforting Mike, Gao Guang took out the car keys from his pocket and said, "Go home."
"Boss, let me drive."
"No, I'll drive. I must practice my driving skills as soon as possible. This is a question of proficiency. As long as I drive a few more times, the problem last time will not occur. "
"What went wrong last time?"
Gao Guang did not tell Mike what went wrong. He couldn't say that he was a little short of blocking Morris because of his poor driving skills. It would be fine if he didn't block Morris, but he also let a stupid trio laugh at him because of it.
The return journey from San Francisco took more than six hours. On the way, they ate something, refueled, and took a short rest. When Gao Guang and his friends arrived in Los Angeles, it was almost four or five in the afternoon.
Going directly back to the company, but when Gao Guang was driving to the company parking lot, he stepped on the brakes and stopped on the road.
"Don't stop here... I'll get off first!"
Mike soon discovered why Gao Guang stopped completely, because there was a man standing at the entrance of the company, who didn't look like a good person, and there was another car in the company parking lot, which was an outsider's car.
Each car and each person was a stranger. In this troubled time, Gao Guang must be more careful.
Gao Guang didn't let Mike get off the car. He released the brake and let the car drive into the parking lot. Then he held the gun handle with his right hand and said, "Let's go together."
If he wanted to shoot, Gao Guang's reaction was much faster than Mike's, so it was not appropriate to let Mike get off the car alone. It would be better for two people to get off together.
At this time, the person guarding the entrance of the company had already discovered Gao Guang's car. He stood upright at first, but then made a gesture of wanting to come over, but after moving, he stood back at the door, just looking at Gao Guang and others expectantly and nervously.
Gao Guang focused most of his attention on the car parked near the door, not on the person at the door.
It was clear at this time that there was a person sitting still in the strange car, and it was impossible to tell if there was anyone in the back seat. The car model was a GMC commercial vehicle commonly used by law enforcement units. The sudden appearance of such a car meant something was going to happen, so if there was any danger, it must come from the car.
Mike blocked the GMC intentionally or unintentionally. He always adjusted his position to be between Gao Guang and the car, while Gao Guang walked a few steps towards the door, then stopped in front of the car and shouted to the man standing at the door: "Hi, hello, this is private territory, our company is not open now, what can you do for you?"
The man standing at the door wore a baseball cap, and his clothes were not sloppy or dirty, but a close observation revealed that he had a long stubble on his face and his hair was a little greasy. At first glance, he looked like a homeless person, but a short-term homeless person.
There are too many homeless people on the streets of Los Angeles, and Gao Guang is no longer surprised. However, he was so polite to the homeless man because he saw a car used by law enforcement agencies at the same time. Otherwise, he would have driven him away directly.
The homeless man took off his baseball cap and looked very polite. Then he walked towards Gao Guang and said excitedly, "Sir, I want to find a job."
Gao Guang was stunned for a moment, and Mike was also stunned.
Kings Defense is also full of talents now. It is definitely not a place that anyone can come to if they want to, but this person is really the first to take the initiative to invest.
Gao Guang and Mike couldn't help but look at each other, but the homeless man finally said after sizing up Gao Guang and Mike, "How can I meet Mr. Mad Dog?"
Do you want to admit your identity?
Gao Guang basically didn't think, he said directly: "I am a mad dog, you have already seen me."
"Are you a mad dog?"
The tramp looked extremely shocked, but he quickly put away his shocked expression, and then said with a forced calm expression: "Hello, mad dog, I am Dimitris Papastathopoulos, a Greek. I’m thirty-nine years old and I learned about King’s Defense from a friend, so I came looking for a job opportunity.”
He briefly introduced himself and briefly explained the purpose of his visit. Looking at the highlight and saying nothing, the tramp continued: "I served in the Greek army for fourteen years, including ten years in the Navy's special forces. I was promoted to the rank of captain in 2015. Retired, with extensive maritime and special operations experience, completed parachute and airborne training in the United States, and I have underwater demolition capabilities.”
Gao Guang stretched out his hand and said, "Excuse me, uh, are you a Greek?"
"Yes."
"Did you immigrate?"
"Yes."
"Please repeat your name."
"My name is Dimitris Papastathopoulos, spelled..."
"No need to spell, well, no need to spell yet."
After asking again and confirming the name of the homeless man in front of him, Gao Guang couldn't help but touch his chin with his hand. He first looked at Mike, and then said to Dimitris: "How do you know about the King's Defense?" This name?"
Dimitris said very calmly: "A friend of mine, he is British and works in the Armored Group. He knows that I am in a serious financial crisis, so when I look for a job that can get a high salary in the short term, At that time, it was suggested that I try to enter King’s Defense. I checked the information of King’s Defense and found the address on the registration information, so I came.”
After finishing speaking, Dimitris grabbed the wrinkled baseball cap with his right hand and said with a nervous look on his face: "Please give me a chance to show my ability. I guarantee that I can meet all the needs of a PC."
Mike seemed quite happy, because someone from King's Defense took the initiative to apply, which meant that King's Defense had become famous. From now on, he could just wait for talents to come to him, and no longer had to beg others to come to work.
But Gao Guang is not so happy, because the saying "people are afraid of being famous but pigs are afraid of being strong" has a great impact on him.
Wanting to be famous but being afraid of being famous is probably Gao Guang's current mentality.
After looking at the car parked aside, Gao Guang finally said, "You guys came together?"
"Oh, no, I'll come first. I've been waiting here in the morning. The car came for about two hours. I don't know what they do. I wanted to say hello to the people on the car, but I was refused. , and then I continued to wait here, but the guy in the car never got off, well, isn't he from your company? "
This situation is more interesting. There is a Greek who comes to surrender on his own initiative, and there is another person who has no idea of his intention and is motionless in the car.
Gao Guang and Mike looked at each other, and then they both winked at each other.
Then Gao Guang and Mike fell into a helpless situation at the same time.
Gao Guang wanted Mike to go to the front of the car and see where the people in the car came from, but Mike spread his hands and said with a confused look on his face: "What?"
At this moment, the car window was lowered, and the person who had been sitting in the car stuck his head out and said helplessly to Gao Guang: "How long does it take to say hello?"
Gao Guang had to shake his head, so Mike walked towards the car. He came directly to the car and looked into the car unceremoniously. After finding that there was no one in the back seat, he lowered his head to the driver. The voice said: "Who is it?"
"Send that tramp away first and then tell me. Don't you understand the situation?"
The man in the car looked very arrogant and impatient. He waved his hands and said, "I've waited long enough. Hurry up."
Mike frowned and said, "Man, no matter what you do, you have to give me a name."
"Pentagon."
When he heard the word Pentagon, Mike was stunned for a moment, then he quickly returned to Gao Guang and whispered: "The people from the Pentagon are not very polite, but they are not too obviously hostile. Boss, what should I do?"
No one contacted Gao Guang in advance. Someone came directly from the Pentagon, which was a bit troublesome.
Gao Guang thought for a while and said to Dimitris who was applying for a job: "I'm sorry, we currently have no plans to recruit new employees. Can you leave your contact information? If we need to hire someone, we will give you priority."
Dimitris opened his mouth, looking a little disappointed, then he spread his hands and said: "Well, uh, I was indeed reckless. I thought that after the king's defense personnel were reduced, he might recruit new people."
If it weren't for the special situation now and there was someone from the Pentagon waiting aside, Gao Guang would definitely be happy to chat with Dimitris.
As for leaving a phone number, I don't know what Dimitris was talking about. Gao Guang frowned and said, "Leave a phone number and I will call you."
Dimitris scratched his head helplessly and said with an embarrassed look: "Sorry, I don't have a mobile phone. Uh, this is the crux of the problem."
There is no phone call, so there is no way. Dimitris can't just leave. Gao Guang thought for a while and said: "What do you know about the King's Defense? I mean, what have you heard?"
Dimitris thought for a while and said: "Defeating the Knight is the most incredible rumor I have ever heard. My friend told me so. Then a newly rising mercenary group must have more opportunities, so I want to try my luck."
"What else?"
"The King's Mad Dog is very strong, very strong, well, that's all I know."
Knowing that the King's Defense defeated the Knight Mercenary Group and that the Mad Dog is very strong is enough. It shows that Dimitris's friends are high-end enough, which indirectly proves that Dimitris's rank is also high enough. He should be a talent. Even if he can't decide to stay now, it is definitely worth paying attention to.
Gao Guang immediately looked at Mike and said, "Give him two hundred dollars."
Mike took out two hundred-dollar bills from his pocket and handed them over. Dimitris was stunned for a moment and frowned, "No, I'm not begging..."
"Find a hotel, take a shower, and then come here to find me at 8 o'clock in the evening. If I'm not here, there will be someone else waiting to receive you."
Gao Guang finished speaking, and then he waved his hand and said, "Go, see you in the evening."
Dimitris was stunned for a moment, and then he didn't take the money from Mike, but nodded and said, "Okay, I'll visit you again at 8 o'clock in the evening, but I don't need the money."
Dimitris walked away slowly. Seeing that his steps were still strong, he should not be unable to eat. I just don't know how he got to the point where he didn't even have a mobile phone.
Mike took the money and shrugged, saying, "I don't want any money."
Just then, the man in the car finally got off. He jumped out of the car and said to Gao Guang bluntly, "You are a mad dog."
"It's me."
A young man who didn't look very tall, but had an arrogant look and a look of displeasure on his face, took two steps towards Gao Guang, looked him up and down several times, and then said coldly, "Follow me, someone is waiting for you."
Mike raised his right hand, made a gesture to stop him, and said, "Hey, man, tell me clearly, who are you and who is waiting for my boss."
The driver didn't have much hostility, but he seemed to be very curious about Gao Guang. After hearing Mike's question, he looked at Gao Guang and said arrogantly, "General Lloyd."
