The daily life of American TV agents

Chapter 498 The new business of the small cake shop
A week before Leonard's wedding, Ron has returned to a peaceful life.

"Selling small cakes, small cakes! Please, buy a small cake!" Caroline leaned half of her body out of the window like a little match girl, yelling desperately.

On the other side of the street, the green garbage can creaked and shook for a long time before finally stopping, and two heads poked out from the garbage dump.

"What is Caroline doing this time? Aren't you already working in that high-end dessert shop? Why does she still look so short of money?"

"Who asked Caroline to drive her own car to learn some business courses, not to mention paying the course fee of [-] US dollars, and when she drove her own car to class, she even crashed the car, but thanks to her, I am now finally Know how much it costs to fix a Maserati."

A top student who graduated from the Wharton School of Business paid 5000 US dollars to attend a business course taught by a self-proclaimed successful person. Just for this, Ron felt that Caroline's studies were in vain.

You know, Caroline's father, Mr. Chan Ning, is a master of success, but Caroline still has to learn from others.

"Okay, there's no other way~"

Although Toretto's car repair shop can repair everything, but with the importance Caroline attaches to this car, she will never allow any non-original parts to be installed on the car, even if the new parts have a better performance improvement effect .

In fact, when Caroline decided to keep the car, Ron suggested modification to him.

You know, the treatment that allows a master like Toretto to modify it himself is not available to everyone, but Caroline still refused because he wanted to maintain the original appearance of the car itself.

And it may be that it has captured the hearts of women. The ordinary parts of sports cars like Maserati are sold like ordinary cars, but all the parts related to appearance are sold at sky-high prices.

"Maybe you can comfort her," Max yelled at the opposite shop, "Caroline, I've had enough, do you want to come over and relax?"

"Hey! My bank card balance is zero now, how could I be like you, I don't feel nervous at all," Caroline saw a passerby anxiously continuing to sell: "Cupcakes! Come and buy a cupcake!"

But she still continued to be mocked by Max: "You look more desperate than Justin Bieber who was caught in the testicles in the CK commercial."

"Why don't you think about it, why am I so desperate?" Caroline said angrily: "We still owe the bank loan, and the loan amount will increase, and then we will close down."

"Cupcakes, sell cupcakes!" Hearing the current dire financial situation, even someone as nervous as Max couldn't help but scramble to put on his clothes and prepare to go out to help. Ron had no choice but to follow suit. go out.

"Actually, you don't have to be so nervous at all. In the worst case, you still have me, right?"

"Yes, we have Ron, we will definitely help us, right?" Max stroked his hand to Ron's chest, and winked charmingly.

"Max, we can't always rely on Ron, we have to support ourselves!" After reprimanding Max, Caroline gave Ron an apologetic smile: "Thank you for your kindness, Ron, you have helped us too much, I am really sorry I don’t want to spend any more of your money, or I’ll feel like I’m no different from those women who trade their bodies for money.”

"No, no, no, you made a mistake. I didn't say to continue to give you money, but brought you some relatively good orders. As for whether you can grasp it? It's up to you."

"Order?!" Max's eyes lit up: "Then why didn't you say it just now?"

"It can't be my fault, who made you so beautiful." Ron patted Max's buttocks lightly and said solemnly: "Speaking seriously, if you do well this time, maybe you will be able to compare with poverty and bankruptcy in the future." Farewell."

"Really? How big is this order?" Caroline couldn't help but breathe a little faster when she spoke.

"Is this order big enough for the Tesla factory in Los Angeles?"

Tesla's Los Angeles factory is one of Tesla's largest factories in the United States. The entire factory has more than 3000 employees. The afternoon tea snacks that so many people need are also astronomical.

Of course, it is impossible for Musk to replace all the refreshments with small cakes for his employees. This is unrealistic, but it is not a problem to replace some of them. This is also in the battery cooperation agreement that Ron and Musk negotiated. one of the additional terms.

That's right, the cooperation agreement between Ron and Musk has been negotiated. Musk only obtained the right to use the patent, but paid 5 million US dollars, plus a [-]% stake in Tesla.

It was less than half of the price that Ron offered at the beginning, but there was no way around it. The reason for the bargain given by Musk was also very realistic, which made Ron have to reconsider and give up his idea of ​​starting an electric car company.

"You need to know what your battery technology means to the current energy structure?"

In the office, Musk took a deep puff of his cigar and said in a serious tone: "This means that we will go to war with almost all car companies, and we will also go to war with traditional energy companies, which even includes Royal Dutch Shell. , Exxon Mobil, Standard Oil, BP, because they all understand that this will be something that will change the times.

Therefore, they will not hesitate to suppress us in any way, including but not limited to: lobbying the White House in the name of safety to formulate new battery standards, limiting our performance to a level that is not a threat to them; Energy, directly and maliciously caused several battery spontaneous combustion accidents.

Even directly dispatched killers, posing a threat to the personal safety of me and my family, so, what are you going to choose?

Do you continue to start a new electric car company by yourself, and compete with me while dealing with these giants; or sell the patent usage rights, take the money and leave, and hand over the big guys to me, and of course give the opportunity to make a fortune give it to me. "

The energy contained in these capital giants can even directly wipe out any small country on the earth.

Although Ron was very strong, he was still not confident enough to feel that he could compete with these capital giants, so he chose the second one.

But Musk is different. Behind him is the capital of the CIA, the capital of the aerospace industry, the capital of the information industry, and the most daunting capital force in the United States: the military-industrial complex group.

He has already saved enough capital to wrestle with oil and energy interest groups.

Although the strength of the IRS behind Ron is not too bad, but for this kind of fairy fight, I should feel at ease and be a spectator.

"That's great, Max, we're really going to get rich this time!"

Caroline excitedly took Max's hand and jumped up and down. Max shook it several times with a look of disgust but failed to shake it off, so he could only let him continue to hold it.

"Chanel, Hermes, Balenciaga, Gucci... I'm finally coming back!"

Caroline read out a large list of big brands that she used to be used to, but now she couldn’t reach them, just like reporting the names of dishes, and finally remembered who was responsible for all this, Jumped up and kissed Ron hard on the cheek.

"Thank you, Ron, thank you so much!"

"Don't rush to thank, whether this matter can be successful or not? It mainly depends on you and Max. I advise you not to be happy too early."

Although it was actually a certainty, Roan didn't want Caroline to miss out on this big order because she got carried away and ignored the quality problem.

"Someone in the Tesla factory has eaten your small cakes, and they think it's very good, so they agreed to this proposal. Therefore, the key to making this order successful is to continue to maintain your original taste, and don't make mistakes because of the rush. decline in quality."

"Understood," Caroline buried her head in Ron's arms and murmured with her other arm around Max, "If it weren't for you and Max, I might be living on the street now, nothing, or let go of my self-esteem." , sell your body for money like cheap street girls, I don’t know how to thank you.”

"I don't want your thanks, I just want you to move out of my apartment quickly, or take me to live in your big villa with an independent swimming pool." Max said duplicity.

But Ron grabbed the buttocks of the two beautiful girls hard, and laughed amidst the exclamation of the two girls: "You know how to thank me..."

After a sleepless night, Ron fought until dawn before falling asleep from exhaustion, then slept until noon, and returned to the office with his drowsy body in the afternoon.

The members of the special operations team have long been accustomed to their boss being late and leaving early every day. In fact, they often do this themselves, and Ron is very loose about it. Part of the time is like herding sheep.

In Ron's own words: "As long as the work is done, it doesn't matter if you don't come to clock in. What I want is someone who can really help me with my work, not a salary thief who just dangles in front of my eyes every day."

Of course, there is one exception among these members, and that is Chris, who has obsessive-compulsive disorder. No matter what the situation, he insists on commuting to get off work on time every day, as accurate as a clock.

"You're finally here. I need to report something to you, boss." As soon as Ron sat down on the desk, before he could warm up the stool, Andy walked in with a document.

"I said a long time ago that you don't need to ask me about all the things you can decide. You just need to explain what you have done in the daily newspaper. Don't worry, I will definitely read it. If there is something inappropriate, I will also It will be stopped immediately."

Ron half propped his head on his arms, all she wanted to do now was to get Andy out of the way and get some sleep until get off work was over.

He can still fight tonight!

But unfortunately, Andy didn't give her this chance: "I advise you to take a look, otherwise, you won't even know how the money is gone."

"What? My money is gone? Who did it? So bold? Don't you know that Los Angeles is my territory?!" Hearing that the matter was related to money, Ron suddenly cheered up.

"One of the security companies we invested in, as you may remember, is mainly engaged in the business of escorting banknotes for banks," Andy opened the file, pointing to the information on it and said: "But during this time, the company's cash transport vehicles have been running one after another. We were robbed, and no one in the underworld paid us the crime tax of the robbery amount, the company's loss, plus the tax we didn't receive, we lost twice inside and out."

After getting along with Ron for a long time, Andy also learned his special way of settling accounts: "I think you should find a way to solve this matter."

Ron nodded: "You're right, otherwise, at the current rate of loss, we won't be able to pay wages in 300 years."

Andy secretly rolled his eyes, let alone 300 years, three years later, whether he is still alive will be a problem, who can control the salary at that time?
But he didn't complain about this problem. It's a good sign that his own boss is actively doing things: "So, how do you plan to deal with it?"

"In general robbery cases, even if the same gang commits multiple crimes, there will be subtle differences in actions due to various objective reasons such as traffic and weather, but look at these cases."

Ron lined up the case materials and placed them in front of Andy: "Not only did they shorten the time to less than 2 minutes each time, but the process and even the content of the call to the escort were exactly the same. However, I was most surprised The most important thing is their precise grasp of the robbery time, if there is no insider, it is impossible to achieve this level."

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Arthur, Hank, come here." Ron didn't answer Andy's words directly, but called his two subordinates loudly.

"What's the matter, boss?"

"Look at these," Ron pointed to the information on the table: "It's probably because we haven't acted for a long time, and some people in Los Angeles are just around the corner, starting to ignore our IRS, I need you to take some action, give Let me tell you about your plans."

Hanke is a policeman, and he has a natural inertia when dealing with cases: "I think we can start with the circulation of banknotes, look for these banknotes in the market, and once we find the numbers of these banknotes, immediately trace the source."

"No, it's too slow, and the money may not be spent locally in Los Angeles, or even in the United States."

The U.S. dollar is the world's currency. Not to mention, even the drug dealers in South America prefer to use U.S. dollars for cash transactions. From this perspective, there is no way to check.

Ron shook his head: "Arthur, what do you think?"
