Chapter 124 Suffering is a blessing About an hour later. Olivia washed up in the bathroom, put on decent clothes, and said contentedly, "Honey, I'm going to the bank to withdraw cash now. You wait for me at home. Our business is not over yet! I'll make you something delicious tonight!" "Ok." Zhang Ailun took out his phone and glanced at the message. It showed that it was sent half an hour ago. Dominic: The black man was found, and the first edition Spider-Man comic signed was also obtained intact. What should we do with this comic book? Dominic: What are you doing? Why aren't you answering me? Are you dating someone again? Zhang Ailun: For autographed comics, you can go to Old George Pawn Shop and tell me your name, or take the large coupon from the pawn shop and put it in the second cabinet of the RV. He will give regular customers a reasonable price. If you don’t have time, just put it in the RV and I will go sell it myself tomorrow. Dominic: Why are you finishing now? Zhang Ailun: Maybe I’m too strong? Dominic: I'm just about to go back to the camp to get the discount coupon and go to the pawn shop you mentioned. I hope they can give us a satisfactory price. Zhang Ailun: ok! Zhang Ailun felt sleepy and wanted to lie down on the bed and close his eyes to rest, but he fell asleep without knowing it. When he woke up again, he found that it was dark outside. There was a handbag on the bedside table. When I opened it, I found $5000 in cash. Zhang Ailun just felt relieved that all his hard work was worth it.
There were also several unread messages on the phone. When I clicked on it, I saw that the messages were from Dominic, the Dongwu sisters, and Reina. Dominic: I went to George Pawn Shop, and the owner told me that this Stan Lee signed first edition comic book was not worth much, because the other party was on the verge of bankruptcy at the time, so he went around signing and drawing for people. At the craziest time, he was willing to appear anywhere to sign comics and draw drafts for people as long as he was given $1000 plus a round-trip ticket. He was only willing to pay me $2500 for this first edition Spider-Man comic. Zhang Ailun: $2500? This is a signed first edition Spider-Man comic. Spider-Man was only released in 1962, and Stan Lee was on the verge of bankruptcy in 1963. At that time, Stan Lee had just become a rich man because of his comics. How could he sign autographs for everyone? Did you sell it to him for $2500? Dominic: Of course not. I also looked up information before going there. Because I knew that the first edition Spider-Man comics were different from the later versions of Spider-Man, I was more cautious in discussing the price with him. The reasonable price of this first edition comic should be $4000. Zhang Ailun: 3000 US dollars is about right, this way everyone can make money. Dominic: I thought so too. After that, I went to two more pawn shops. The Magic Flute Pawn Shop was willing to pay me $2000, and the Eugene Pawn Shop offered a lower price of only $1400. Finally, George Pawn Shop was willing to pay me $2800. I wanted to contact you, but I thought the price was very reasonable, so I just sold it to him. Zhang Ailun: Modric Pawn Shop was also opened by George's family! I don't know about Eugene's Pawn Shop, but the bargaining was so fierce that we will never sell things there in the future. $2800 is already very good. Remember to share this money with those who have contributed to the team. Dominic: Don't you want it? Zhang Ailun: You can take out 36% of the dividends and give me one thousand dollars. Dominic: Ok. All in all, I made a profit of $10,000 today! Zhang Ailun opened the chat box between Reina and the two Dongwu sisters and operated on two lines. Rena: You can come over tonight. Zhang Ailun: Honey, I might have something to do tonight. Rena: Well, you were busy dating other women? I knew you couldn't stand the loneliness, was it because I didn't serve you well? Zhang Ailun: How is it possible!! Rena: I don't like liars. I divorced my ex because he was dishonest. If you want to be with me for a long time, at least let me know your true feelings. Allen Zhang: You will always have a place in my heart. You are the most unique one! Rena: Very good, then come back another day when you are well. Remember to wash yourself clean, I don't want to eat other people's leftovers. Zhang Ailun: … Little Greedy Cat: Dad, do you want to come over to my house for dinner tonight? Zhang Ailun: I will come to see you when I have time. Have you found a job? Little Greedy Cat: Not yet. We hardly know many people and can only look for jobs online. Zhang Ailun: Be careful, there are a lot of bad guys here.
Thank you for your concern. :) Zhang Ailun didn't continue chatting with them, thinking about visiting them someday when he had time. After working hard for half a day and sleeping until now, Zhang Ailun didn’t know if he was really hungry. He vaguely smelled the aroma of meat and immediately got up and washed. When I went downstairs, I found Olivia humming a song, with her fluffy hair tied up and wearing a thin apron, stewing meat in the kitchen. She was wearing very bold clothes at home, and her lower body seemed to be empty. Zhang Ailun walked over on tiptoe, pounced on him and attacked him from behind, "Hey! Guess who I am!!" “Ah!!” Olivia was startled, and soon she covered her chest with her hands, took a deep breath, and punched him, “You are so bad!” Zhang Ailun looked at the meat in the pot and hugged her. "When will it be ready? I'm almost starving." "Sir, don't be in a hurry, okay? If you really can't help it, maybe you can eat some peanut butter first?" Olivia enjoyed his warm hug and took out the bottle of peanut butter with a sly smile. Zhang Ailun tutted, "No bread slices?" "There are meat slices." Olivia spread the peanut butter meaningfully. Zhang Ailun was confused. After a simple meal of seafood and meat, Olivia continued cooking with a flushed face. Zhang Ailun went back upstairs to wait for dinner, opened the Los Angeles 58 black market app, and found that his employer, Mr. Shark, had opened the message for him. Mr. Shark: When can you get him? My wife actually brought that guy home this afternoon! Damn it! They even did that in my bed!! Why is this sense of déjà vu so strong? Craig is a revengeful guy. Burger King: Sorry, we don't want to do this business anymore. Please find someone else. Mr. Shark: Why. Burger King: Someone has offered a higher price. I advise you to break up peacefully. Mr. Shark: No!! You can't do this! We have already agreed. Burger King: You didn't pay me any deposit, so this transaction is not established, it's just a verbal agreement. If I tell your wife your true intentions and thoughts, what do you think she will do? Mr. Shark: OK! I won't bother you anymore! You'd better not mess with me either. Burger King: It better be that. This is the West Coast, and money comes first, my friend! Zhang Ailun exited the chat software. I started watching short videos and reading news while waiting for dinner. At the same time, in a cheap motel, a slightly fat middle-aged white man with Mediterranean hair sat in a chair in frustration, looking at the other party's reply message, and punched the table angrily. "Fxxk! I'm so unlucky!!" Very angry. After taking a look at the remaining money in his pocket, he decided to order takeout. Then he posted the bidding information on the 58 black market app network in Los Angeles. Someone responded to him soon.
Rose: $200. Do you prefer cute and adorable, or mature and charming? Mr. Shark: Whatever, is your photo of you? So beautiful? Rose: It's me. Please send me the location and pay the money in advance using virtual currency, and I'll be there right away. Mr. Shark: I can only pay you a deposit first. Rose: Honey, I am so beautiful, am I not worth your full payment? I will serve you very well, and you can play any game you want! For $200, I am yours tonight! For $400, you don't have to treat me as a human being! ! Mr. Shark was instantly attracted. He paid the full amount of $400 and waited for more than ten minutes. Mr. Shark: When will you arrive? half an hour. Mr. Shark: Where are you? WTF!! You damn liar!! When you are unlucky, even drinking cold water will cause your teeth to get stuck. The middle-aged man started to smash the table in anger. Until the motel owner knocked on the door impatiently, "Guest, what are you doing? Are you destroying the house? If you make any more noise, get out of here!!" The flame was turned off instantly. At the No. 19 Bridge Cave Camp, Jennifer crossed her legs and held her phone, grinning from ear to ear. "How could there be such a stupid person? He actually paid me 400 US dollars." Dominic and the others looked at each other in bewilderment. "So now you are setting up a honey trap and are specializing in virtual sex scams?" "I'm just making money from fools. Their IQ is not worthy of having an equal amount of property. It's not a good thing to have so much money! Instead of letting the bank and the stock market take it away, it's better to let them remember that it's a blessing to suffer a loss!" Jennifer replied and generously transferred a hundred dollars to Dominic. "Go, listen to me, take this money and go to the supermarket to buy some good things to nourish Alan. Have you read the Asian cookbook I bought for you?" "I've watched it, but I can't learn it. I don't understand what the right amount of salt, the salt for one person, or the salt for multiple people is. There are no detailed units of measurement!" Dominic was a little annoyed. He said unhappily, "He may not come back to stay today, so don't waste your time worrying about it!" Dominic guessed blindly that given the leader's personality, he would most likely live in someone else's house. "Not coming back again? Okay." Jennifer felt a little regretful, but still not discouraged, "But he will come back to live someday!!" …… Zhang Ailun had no idea what was going on. After waiting for half an hour, Olivia quickly prepared the meal and called him downstairs to eat. After going downstairs and looking at the sumptuous dinner, Zhang Ailun did not hesitate to praise, "Your cooking skills are good, you can be a three-star chef in a Michelin restaurant!" "Of course. I lived with my mother since I was a child. She loved cooking, and I learned a lot from her. I don't think I've ever told you about what happened to me." Olivia proudly accepted the compliment, sat down at the table, and set the tableware. "Please enjoy your meal, sir. There are more exciting shows waiting for you next!" "..." I know it. Everything is a bargaining chip with you. Zhang Ailun devoured the food. He could only pray that the other party would not use the same tricks on him as on the rich. He could not bear such perverted tricks. After dinner, the two chatted for a while and turned on TV to watch a horror movie.
All of them were unedited clips. Zhang Ailan felt sleepy while watching them, but Olivia was watching them with great interest. But as she picked up the remote control and switched to the pay channel, Zhang Ailun was no longer sleepy. "Are you ready, honey?" "possible?" "I want an accurate signal." "of course." Olivia smiled, stood up, turned off the lights, and took off her clothes, revealing her fluffy tail. Wait a minute... Tail!? This is a paid program. …… The next day. Zhang Ailun opened his eyes and found himself lying under the bed, so he crawled out from under the bed. I rubbed my sore cheeks and looked at the toys thrown everywhere. I couldn't bear to think about what I had been through. Olivia was already up, and the sound of running water could be heard in the bathroom. After searching for a long time, I finally found my phone in the corner. I opened the daily intelligence app and took a look at today's news. He rubbed his eyes and was struck by lightning. [Daily Intelligence: Your good friend Simone's ex-boyfriend died on the street that night after being raped by a black man due to drug overdose.] Simone's ex? Zhang Ailun thought that he seemed to have never met the other party, but only heard Dominic and Simone mention him. But it’s better this way. It has nothing to do with him and saves him a lot of trouble. [Daily Intelligence: Your ID card has been made, fresh out of the oven, and is waiting to be shipped to Delin Tailor Shop at 362 Shuangma Street in the city center to be distributed to Korean ID card matching personnel.] Yay! I finally have an identity! But once you earn money you have to start paying taxes. Zhang Ailun was in a complicated mood. He said he was happy, but he couldn't be happy. After all, no one would want to be a leek and pay money for nothing, right? He could buy so many heavy weapons with that money. [Daily Intelligence: Street Brothers Modification Shop purchased a batch of scrapped and inferior brake discs from El Martin, a member of the Moschino Gang, and modified the orange Chevrolet Cruze with license plate number LS-56A-6D. Details: Martin's subordinate Little Kizz secretly hid $5667 in the old brake pad numbered D5000. ] Zhang Ailun downloaded the intelligence pictures. The Street Brothers modification shop is obviously run by Lao Hei. They use inferior brake discs to pass off as good ones, which is what they are capable of. The drivers have given them zero negative reviews! Hiding the money in the brake disc is a real talent! It seems that it is not easy to take the money. After all, the business inside also involves the Moschino Gang in the Seventh Street District.
[Daily Intelligence: The Mexican Embassy in Los Angeles, USA, found the whereabouts of the fugitive 'Malu Hufei' through clues, and notified the California Immigration Bureau and the Department of Homeland Security. The Department of Homeland Security sent a secret agent to Los Angeles that night, and it is expected to conduct a secret investigation on homeless people and special personnel in the Fifth Street District, near the Sanji Bar. ] Zhang Ailun clicked to download the photo of the Homeland Security undercover investigator. Looking at his disguise, knitted bag, black glasses, briefcase, windbreaker, and leather shoes. It's not noticeable at all on the street. Or maybe they are professionals! Zhang Ailun thought about it and decided not to get involved in such matters. One or two secret investigators may not be a big deal, but the Department of Homeland Security is a behemoth that cannot withstand any hassle. Anyone who touches it will die. When facing an investigation, homeless people should just say whatever they want and be honest. (End of this chapter)
