America's Road to Wealth

Chapter 279 Secret Service Agent as Bodyguard

The uncanny craftsmanship of nature has shaped the beautiful earth.

Human beings live and build on it, and create countless artificial arts with their hands, but these are just decorations on top of nature.

There are always places and things that cannot be created by human hands.

Lanai is such a place that has not been processed by humans.

Lanai Island, the sixth largest island in Hawaii, covers an area of ​​365.2 square kilometers. It is also known as Lanai Island, which means "land of conquest".

The climate on the island is dry and the rainfall is low. Once the king of Hawaii built a palace here.

Hawaii is the state that produces the most pineapples in the United States, and most pineapples are grown on the Lanai.

The whole piece of pineapple has made the world's largest pineapple production company - Dole Company (Dole Company).

Its founder Toure bought this deserted island for US$1922 million in 110, and spent millions of US dollars to transform it into a pineapple garden, build pier roads, dig water sources, and finally established Lanai City. Changed the face of the lanai.

There are about 2000 residents on the island, and these residents are also employees of the pineapple company.

Responsible for caring for and harvesting pineapples on the island, 98% of the island is privately owned, and the remaining 2% is owned by the Hawaii state government.

Abel fell in love with the island, and he used 0.6% of News Corporation shares to obtain the ownership of the island.

According to Abel's idea, he wants to build a lot of construction on this island.

In fact, there was already a Lanai City on the island, a small town with more than 2000 people.

The population of the small town mainly lives on the local pineapples and tourism, and they basically listen to whoever is the owner of the island.

Abel intends to make this beautiful big island his own resort.

The first step is to expand the size of the airport on Lanai, Hawaii.

At least let this airport start parking Boeing 747 aircraft.

This job is not difficult. There is already an airport on the island, but the area is not that big.It only needs to expand the runway and increase the area of ​​the airport.

Later, he planned to build his own personal manor in the type of palace outside Lanai City.

In the future, it will become a resort for him and Elizabeth's angels.

This is the new back garden he chose for the Elizabeth angels.

As for the original No. [-], Huangdian Thirteenth Road, New York, it will be used as the dormitory of Isa Company in New York in the future.

It's just that this dormitory is too high-end and luxurious.

More than 99.999999% of the company's dormitory in the world.

This also happened to be one of the welfare conditions for Isha to attract the world's top supermodels.

Able to live in one of the most beautiful, luxurious and expensive villas in the world for free.

Isn't this an encouragement to the girls who are struggling in Vanity Fair?

In addition, in July, something more important to Abel also happened.

That is, on July 16, Abel was officially elected as one of the 75 directors of the National Rifle Association in New York.

On the next day, he was successfully re-elected and became the new director of the National Rifle Association.

This means that his status in this country, and the crown he carries on him has one more crown.

It also made those big shots in DC pay more attention to him.

Politicians who need voters more than rich people and business.

Who can ignore the more than 500 million votes cast by the National Rifle Association?

Even if his chairmanship is mainly honorary.

But it can be recognized by everyone and elected as the chairman, which also symbolizes his status or influence in the National Rifle Association.

It also means that he still has influence on the association.

This is very valuable for regular customers.

7 month 18 day.

NYU Manhattan is closed for the holidays.

In American universities, the three common systems are Semester, Quarter and Trimester.

New York University uses the Semester system.

This system is adopted by most American universities. The semester is divided into two quarters, spring and autumn, and the duration of each semester is about 16-18 weeks.

The spring semester generally lasts from mid-January to the end of May or early June, and the autumn semester from the end of August or early September to mid-to-late December.

Therefore, from the end of May to the end of August, university students who use this system will have a summer vacation of about three months.

Students can choose to continue their studies during this time period, or they can choose to participate in internships, travel or go home.

Little Laura will actually be able to go on vacation at the beginning of June.

That is, she herself is a transfer student, or a college preparatory class that she didn't finish high school.

I couldn't keep up with the progress of the course, so I didn't choose to take a vacation, but continued to study the course.

In order to accompany her, Li Xinyu did not go home on vacation, and the two of them studied together in school.

This time finally even the professors are on vacation.

College students who have chosen a one-and-a-half-month advanced course, even if they don't want to take a vacation at this time, they don't have to take the class.

As soon as little Laura was on vacation, Abel invited her to set off for Europe.

"What to do in Europe?" Little Laura was naturally excited when she heard that she could go to Europe.

In this world, there is no woman who does not love to travel.

From people like Little Laura to ordinary working-class white-collar women.

Consumerism enters the brain, modernism is accompanied, and there are little fresh girls everywhere.

"Go on a trip, go on vacation." Abel smiled and said, "I'll do something by the way."

Little Laura wants to say that doing business is your main purpose.

Of course she wouldn't spoil the scenery like this, but jumped into his arms with a smile and offered to send a sweet kiss.

The two decided to set off on July 7 for Europe.

The first stop is London.

In fact, as little Laura thought.

Abel's trip to Europe this time was mainly for business.

There are two things he has to do.

One is to see if there is anything to invest in in Europe.

Especially industries involving the media, such as newspapers, TV stations and the like.

Another thing, is that the time is almost up.

Soros has prepared the plan for more than a month, and it is estimated that it will be launched in the Kingdom of Norway in the near future.

How could Abel miss such a grand event?

He wants to go to Europe to sit in charge in person, and even go to the Kingdom of Norway in person when necessary.

Soros wanted to eat meat, but Abel wanted to grab the meat out of his bowl even more!
To achieve this, it is not very realistic to sit in the United States and command from afar. You must go to Europe in person.

What's more, in Europe, America and Europe, the economies of North America and Europe have always been difficult to separate.

After the United States grows bigger, if he doesn't extend his tentacles to Europe, he will be really sorry for his identity as an American.

New York JFK International Airport.This airport is located in Queens, New York, and its original name was New York International Airport.

Later, in order to commemorate the former commander who had a big brain hole, it was changed to the current name.

As the name suggests, it's also the departure and arrival point for most international flights from New York.

The morning of November 7.

A row of all black convoys drove into Kennedy International Airport. After the car stopped, many people got off from the car.

This group of people is exactly Abel and the others.

This time he went to England, Abel brought all the four King Kong along.In addition, he also brought more than 20 rock security staff.

Yesterday, his advisory team and another group of rock security staff even set off ahead of schedule.

Besides these, because little Laura was going too.

The Secret Service also sent people over, only five people were sent, the team leader was Marcus, and Catherine was also inside.

Little Laura did not come with Abel in the morning.

She is not living with Abel yet.

She was with the Secret Service and came in two cars later.

As soon as she came down, she smiled and kissed Abel.

Abel looked at Marcus, the team leader of the Secret Service was very sensible, and said softly to Abel:
"The matter has been settled. The certificate has been issued. Please rest assured, Mr. Smith."

Hearing his clear answer, Abel laughed directly.

Abel patted Marcus on the shoulder, and said directly in front of little Laura: "You are always welcome at the rock security."

Hearing what Abel said, Marcus also laughed happily.

There was a moment of joy in the air.

Only Catherine pouted in her heart—a corrupt person who abused power!

The reason Catherine thinks this way is simple.

Because Abel asked Marcus to get a Secret Service certificate for half of the Rock Security staff that was leaving for England this time.

Prove that these guys are Secret Service temps.They are abroad, representing the U.S. Secret Service.

These people are Secret Service staff until the time for provisional employment certification is over!
In other words, half of the rock security bodyguards who went to the UK this time were covered with a Secret Service vest.
Of course Marcus does not have such a great energy, he is just an operation team leader of the Secret Service.

The real energy is little Laura's father, to be precise, her uncle.

With someone above him, Marcus's activities went smoothly.The Secret Service made a fuss directly and approved Marcus' application.

These were Abel's demands, and again because of his damn insecurities.

Staying in the United States, he can't wait to bring more than [-] people with him.

Now I want to go abroad, to a place that is not my own.

Of course, you can bring as many people as you can.

He didn't think it was enough to bring enough manpower, and he wanted to give his own people a layer of vest.

You don't have to be a fool to have little Laura.

He simply turned the rock security guards into temporary employees of the Secret Service.

The announced name is to protect little Laura. After all, she is the granddaughter of the former commander and the niece of the current commander.

He could have enjoyed such treatment, but it was not so exaggerated.

Now exaggerate a bit, and at the same time do it without the Secret Service paying for it.

For the sake of the owner of the white house, and the possible revolving door treatment in the future.

The Secret Service is of course happy to support it. Anyway, it is going abroad, so there is no need to be afraid of domestic public opinion if something happens.

The situation became that Abel took more than 30 "employees" and "agents" of the US Secret Service and set off for London.

It's best if nothing happens.

If there is anything, the name of the U.S. Secret Service will be displayed. This name is Abel's best protection abroad.

These little Lauras didn't know it yet.

She thought that Abel brought her here to do some business and to take a vacation.

The little girl is very happy.

A group of people waited and set foot on Abel's brand new Boeing 747.

Time zone and time difference factors are not considered.

The plane takes off at nine o'clock in the morning and arrives in London a little after three o'clock in the afternoon.

The distance between New York and London is not far, and a normal passenger flight takes about six to seven hours.

Compared with the huge Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean is smaller after all.

"Boom... squeak..."

Accompanied by the harsh roar of the turbo engine, and the sound of the pulley rolling rapidly.

The huge body of the Boeing 747 passenger plane landed slowly at London Heathrow International Airport.

Heathrow International Airport is the main airport of London, the capital of the United Kingdom.

At the same time, it is also a major aviation hub in the world. It is not only the busiest airport in Europe, but also one of the busiest airports in the world. In this era, it can rank third in the world.

The world's first and second places are Kai Tak International Airport on Hong Kong Island and John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York.

When Abel and his party walked down the ladder of the plane, he smiled at the corner of his mouth and took a deep breath.

"Finally, this is London, the heart of the empire on which the sun never set."

Abel let out a breath and muttered to himself.

Little Laura, who was following Abel, also looked around. This was not the first time she had come to London.

Her parents have brought her here a few times.

But it was really the first time I came to London with someone who wasn't my parents.

What's more, I still accompany my boyfriend, established fiancé, and future husband.

For little Laura, it was a novel and pleasant and exciting experience.

"Let's go. Go to the hotel first." Abel looked up at the sky.

When we set off in the morning, the sky in New York was clear and sunny, and the weather was very good.

After flying over to London, the sky here is gloomy, covered with dark clouds, and it looks like it's going to rain.

"I don't like the weather in London." He said to little Laura, leading her hand down the plane ladder.

Little Laura said with a smile: "London is like this. 360 days a year, at least [-] days are either snowing or raining. The weather like this is already very good."

Abel had also heard about the bad weather in London, but he didn't expect it to be this bad.

360 There are three hundred days of snow and rain in five days. Is this a place where people stay?

Following Abel's order, everyone left the airport through the VIP passage.

Outside the airport, the rock security staff and advisory team who arrived in advance had already prepared the convoy to welcome Abel and his colleagues.

But the convoy couldn't leave immediately, because there was still a modified Cadillac STS sedan transferred with the Boeing 747, which had not yet been produced.

This time in London, Abel wanted to get a Cadillac Fleetwood like George Bush's Army One.

In this way, he can pretend to be a tiger, and let the British official figures be shocked when they see the tiger's body.

Later, he thought that he would not have contact with the official figures here, and Fleetwood was indeed a bit high-profile.

This is like driving a Hongqi L22, which still has a flagpole, to Southeast Asian countries in the 7nd century.

So he scrapped the idea and just brought in the modified Cadillac STS that he used to ride most often in New York.

After waiting for about half an hour, Abel's Cadillac STS finally came out.

Putting on the temporary license plate that had been arranged long ago, the Cadillac STS came to the middle of the convoy composed of all rented Rolls-Royces, and the convoy started to drive towards the destination.

Sitting on the only American car in the convoy, through the window, Abel observed everything outside the window and looked at the city.

Feng Shui takes turns, there is no eternal overlord in the world, and the former empire on which the sun never sets has now declined.

Looking at the buildings that kept appearing in his vision, Abel secretly sighed.

Britain was indeed in decline, as he thought.John Bull, who once dominated the world and was so bullish, now looks like a very old man.

But the proud John Bull still refused to admit it, and was still immersed in the glory of the past and refused to wake up.

More than 60 years ago, the unqualified fine arts students spread across Europe, defeating the Allied forces.

Although in the end, because of the end of the United States, the German tanks did not cross the English Channel and landed on the British Peninsula.

But a World War II not only drained the spirit of Europe, but also almost drained the blood of John Bull.

In addition, the huge red empire at that time never gave up its ambition to move westward, which restrained the energy of Britain, one of the leaders in Europe.

Then came the 80s.

A Falklands War ripped off the last fig leaf of John Bull.

It exposed the weak Britain to the eyes of countries all over the world.

Just before that, the world empire began to fall off a cliff.

So even though it has been more than 60 years since World War II, the British economy is still in a slump, and it has fallen to the point where it has to recognize the former little brother as the big brother.

The wind is turning!

If there are no accidents, it will take another ten or twenty years.

What kind of Prime Minister Lettuce, Prime Minister Ah San, are about to appear on the stage one by one.

That's when the shit-stirring stick really declined completely.

Unlike the current London, there is still some face left, and there is still a little bit of industrial foundation.

But this is more valuable to Abel.

In some areas, there is also a need for investment and control.

If it is changed to Britain 20 years later, Abel will not come.

Just as Abel was thinking, the car stopped at the entrance of the Savoy Hotel in London.

The Savoy Hotel, located on the Strand in Westminster, London, opened on 1889 August 8.

It is the first luxury hotel in the UK and the first modern luxury hotel to introduce electric lights, elevators, bathrooms in most rooms and uninterrupted hot and cold water supply.

There are too many celebrities who have stayed here.

Such as Marilyn Monroe, John Wayne, Humphrey Bogart, Elizabeth Taylor, Barbra Streisand, etc., these celebrities have stayed in this hotel.

The hotel looks a bit low-end from the outside, even with only 5 floors, it doesn't look modern at all.

But it is very close to the financial center of London, and the security is very good.

If there is no traffic jam nearby, you can basically reach any well-known landmark in London within 15 minutes.

If there is a traffic jam, there is no way.

Now in the 21st century.

The Savoy maybe not the best.

But its compulsion is the highest.

The reason why Abel lives here is not because it is so high.

It was arranged by David Jones.

As the chief steward of Abel's life, David came two days ago.

David came a day earlier than the advisory group and another group of rock security staff.

After a comprehensive investigation and comparison, David finally felt that the Savoy Hotel was the most suitable boss for him.

The reason is simple, the Savoy Hotel has only one five-storey building.

Abel and the team that Abel followed this time can completely take over the entire Savoy Hotel.

Independently pack a hotel,
In this way, privacy and security are also relatively guaranteed.

Abel felt that David's suggestion was good, so he chose this hotel.

The convoy stopped at the gate, and David led the hotel manager, as well as the rock security personnel doing security work, as well as the selected hotel waiters, and welcomed Abel and others with a respectful welcome.

Abel led the way into the lobby of the hotel.

It's been a while, and the sun in London looks like it's almost setting.

Abel always felt that the sun went down earlier in London than in New York.

It is estimated that this is related to the habitual bad weather in London.

Fortunately, it is now more than July, and the point of direct sunlight is moving northward, and it will soon reach the Tropic of Cancer. Therefore, at this time, the days are long and nights are short in the northern hemisphere, leaving longer time for Abel and others to move freely.

Before the sun had completely set, Abel also took the excited little Laura out the door.

　The Lanai Island in Hawaii was wrongly written. TMD is not Rupert Murdoch's, but David Murdoch's.Two people are not the same person, David Murdoch is the fruit king of America.

　　I originally wrote more than 2000 characters of X, but when I checked the information later, I found something wrong, so I stopped to modify it, but there is no way to change it before, so I changed it to this temporarily, and I would like to inform you. . .
