America: Starting with Daily Intelligence

Chapter 274 Scrap Gold_3



Old George couldn't help but lament the treacherous nature of people's hearts. Fortunately, his only interest was in making money from ordinary customers; he had no intention of stumbling upon a windfall, much less going all-in to buy antiques.

Wealth is sought in danger, and in danger, it is lost. Watching as two old friends—one bleeding money, the other going bankrupt—Old George couldn't help but consider retiring.

"I'll write you a receipt, just wait," Old George turned and took the gold back into his shack. Soon after, he came out with the invoice and transferred $118,400 US Dollars into Allen Zhang's savings account.

He reminded, "I've transferred the money, check to see if you got it."

Allen Zhang had already received the notification and nodded, "I've received it."

"Colson is done for," Old George sighed again, "Didn't he come to borrow money from you for a comeback? He just vanished into thin air. It can't be that he was debt-collected by casino goons and thrown into the sea, right?"

"No, he's alive and well. I gave him five hundred thousand US Dollars and introduced him to an Indian who runs a casino. I suggested he go to Laredo to develop his business. If he really has the ability, it won't take long for him to rise with the casino's help. After all, he's at rock bottom right now. It's the breath he's holding back that gives him the strength to strive," Allen Zhang said with a smile.

This could be considered an investment, after all, for someone who managed to build a fortune of tens of millions from scratch, exceeding 99% of people.

Once bitten, twice shy. If this guy can make it again, he'll probably have evolved!

That's exactly the kind of talent the General Sect Leader needs.

"Laredo is no good place; I've been there when I was young. But indeed, the money comes fast! You can make money from any business," Old George shook his head.

After a few more words, as new customers came in, Allen Zhang received a text message from Beggar Gang Disciples. He greeted Old George and turned to leave.

He drove his Rolls-Royce to the old bridge camp to meet up with the Beggar Gang Disciples, saw the truck driver, and the Maji Gang.

Looking at Maji and his group, why did it feel like they've all gained weight over these two days?

Is the food at the mountain camp that good?

They're treating the General Headquarters' reform site like what now?

After taking the witnesses and physical evidence into the car, and securely storing the original tapes as evidence, Allen Zhang also asked how they had been these past few days.

"It's been pretty good. I hit it off with Dr. Jerry; he even helped me quit smoking. I'm never touching that leafy stuff ever again," Maji honestly said, "I'm ready to reform myself for a few years in prison, come out a better man, marry Manny, and live an average person's life running a small store."

Who's Manny?

Oh, Maji's ex-girlfriend, the girl who used to hang out on the streets who could fit a fist in her mouth and blow smoke rings.

Allen Zhang almost forgot about this, and immediately asked if the Beggar Gang Disciples had settled everything.

"The boss, we got in touch with his girlfriend for Maji, but she wasn't in Las Vegas and had gone to San Francisco. We brought her over and got her into the mountain camp to live. She accepted Dr. Jerry's treatment and successfully kicked the drug habit, and she's in good shape now. We're planning to send her to live in a small town, found her a job. But purchasing a house for her still requires your funds to proceed," the Beggar Gang Disciple reported.

"How did Jerry manage that? How can he help people quit drugs so easily? Isn't he the chief psychiatrist of a mental hospital? Since when did he start doing drug rehab?" Allen Zhang was surprised.

"Because addicts seek mental and physical stimuli, but the drugs injected by Dr. Jerry are 1.7 times stronger than smoking leaves or hitting powder. They've become indifferent to the leaves and even group activities."

"However, successful drug rehabilitation still takes a long time. She has to inject Dr. Jerry's concoction daily. Naturally, after a few months of injections and regular fitness workouts, she should indeed get past this hurdle, but it's said there can be morning sickness-like reactions and a pursuit of sexual pleasure and stimulation as side effects at the beginning. Then, the sensitivity will gradually fade to normal human levels," the Beggar Gang Disciple explained, presenting Dr. Jerry's confirmed theory.

"So the side effect is turning drug addicts into sex addicts..." Allen Zhang was utterly stunned, speechless.

Mad, you really can't trust the research results of this Old Deng, Dr. Jerry, too much.
