Marvel: I traveled through time a little early

Chapter 20 Expanding the winery
The next week, George accompanied Ryan to familiarize himself with the new power.So far, George does not have a specific value for his strength and combat effectiveness.

Before acquiring Deadshot's marksman and fighting abilities, George could only suppress the enemy with his strong basic physical fitness.But with these two abilities, he completely made up for his shortcomings.It can be said that even if he faces Captain America now, he has the confidence to fight against him.

The two had just finished training that day when the servant came to inform them that John was coming to visit.George asked someone to give John a glass of wine, and then John waited in the reception room for a while, then went back to the room to take a shower and change clothes before coming out.

Back in the reception room, John and Ryan were already chatting happily.

"Hello, John"

"Hello, Mr. Orwell."

"Why, come to me so early. Has the previously arranged matter made any progress?" George said when he saw the document John put on the coffee table.

"Yes, Mr. Orwell. Mainly because of the prohibition on alcohol in Canada in the past three years, wineries in this part of town have run into problems. Moreover, they heard that the wages offered by your current winery are very high, so If you acquire their winery, they hope that you will continue to work for you by giving priority to their workers. Moreover, they hope to receive the same level of wages as the workers at PL Winery.”

When John saw George asking, he did not hide it, but directly conveyed all the requests from other wineries.

John knew that these winery owners really wanted to find someone who could buy their winery.There used to be more than 30 wineries in the town, but later nearly 20 wineries were converted into farmland during Canada's nearly four-year alcohol prohibition.

The rest are grapevines that have been in operation for a long time and have reached their age. If they are directly replaced with other crops, the losses will be huge.Moreover, grapevines that have been planted for many years cannot simply be pulled out and leveled before other crops can be planted directly.The intermediate soil cultivation and fertilization require a large investment of capital and time.

Now there are people who are willing to take over, and if the conditions are right, they are still willing to cooperate.

"All of these can be discussed. As long as the requirements of the winery are met, it is not impossible to keep all these workers. So, have you completed the plan I asked you to make before?"

"It's done. Here, take a look first." After saying that, John first opened a map of the town, then opened a plan, and handed it to George.

George first read the plan. After reading it for a while, he picked up the map and studied it for a while.Then, I will catch my eye and start planning slowly.

According to John's plan, all the sixteen existing wineries in the town will be acquired and then part of the land will be purchased.When connected together, they form a concave-shaped terrain that semi-surrounds the town.In addition, PL Winery has a bulge at the bottom of the concave shape.Spread over 8000 acres, it produces primarily cool-climate varieties such as Riesling, Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Cabernet Franc.In the future, more than 600 million liters of wine will be produced annually.

If you only count sixteen wineries, there aren't many, but if they are to be connected together according to George's idea, then this is the land included in it.

But the price is not high.Agriculture has developed rapidly in the United States in recent years, and George's own farm was sold for just over 40 US dollars.The price, including all the wine inventory, brewery and land, was only $120 million, which was far lower than George's previous estimate of $150 million.

George still has about 30 yuan in cash. If he signs the contract one month later, he can get his dividend back this month. If added together, it will be enough to pay the price of all the land.However, George knew that if he wanted to integrate all 11000 acres of land, he still needed to continue investing.

And, it’s almost summer, and the first wave of minor economic crises is coming.George was also going to make more preparations at this time. George felt that he needed to make a quick buck.

George just thought for a while and said to John: "John, I can buy all these lands, and the benefits can be the same as those of PL Winery now. But there is still some room for this price. So, I still need you to talk to them.”

Finally, George once again used the incentive method and negotiated a partial 115% of John's bonus last night based on 3 million.Then John said goodbye and left. There were still many things he needed to be busy with.

After John left, Ryan said: "George, you purchased so much land at one time, are there any problems with your funds?"

George took a sip from the wine glass and chuckled: "Uncle Ryan, don't worry, I already have a plan."

Ryan, holding the wine glass in his hand, nodded and said nothing.

Just now, George had already figured out how to raise the money.The fastest way is to rob, which is more troublesome, and there may not be so much cash in the bank, and it will be troublesome to use it openly.So George directly chose to gamble.

The next day, George said goodbye to Lane.

Reno, Nevada

Later, Reno was known as the second largest casino city in Nevada, but from the perspective of the history of the gaming industry, Reno is the originator of Las Vegas.It is said that more than half a century ago, some "rich people" came to Reno with a lot of money and wanted to turn Reno into what Las Vegas is today. However, Reno held a referendum and unanimously opposed turning their homes into Become a big casino.It is precisely because of this that Las Vegas was created in later generations.The rise of the gambling industry in Las Vegas was only after 1945, so of course George came here after his inquiry.

George walked into the Silver Heritage Hotel in the city center. In the middle of the casino lobby, there was a silver mining machine from the gold rush era.The hotel's promotional brochure states that Nevada's gold reserves rank third in the world, and it was also the first place where Americans went to the West to pan for gold and silver.The huge silver machine standing in the center of the hotel seems to be telling the story of Renault back then.On the ceiling of the hotel lobby, the process of silver mining back then was repeatedly played.

But this has nothing to do with the purpose of George's visit today.When the hotel attendant saw George walking into the hotel, he immediately greeted him: "Dear sir, hello, welcome to Silver Heritage. Would you like to check in or play a few games first?"

George just nodded and told the waiter to exchange the chips.Then George was taken to the entrance of a hall, and the person leading the way was replaced by a beautiful woman with a gorgeous dress and a hot figure.

The chips were exchanged on the left side of the hall, and George directly exchanged 1 chips.Then, led by Emma, ​​he walked into the casino.Within a few minutes of George entering the casino, 10 more people exchanged about 5000 chips and entered the casino one after another.These 10 are all George's shadow clones, and they are the trump card that George is confident of winning money tonight.With these 10 multiple shadow clones that have the same senses as the main body, it is still very advantageous when playing some gambling.

Just like the Texas Hold'em poker that George wants to play.this game.This game is usually played by a team of 2 to 10 people.Then, George won $50 at a table.Then, after George tipped Emma's lady a large chip, George was ready to leave.

George went to the chip exchange office, exchanged the chips for cash, and deposited them directly into the bank at the counter of the Bank of America next door.Then just when George was about to walk out of the Silver Heritage Hotel and change to a casino to continue gambling, George discovered that he seemed to be being followed.

Because the longer George was transformed by space energy, the more acute his five senses became.That malicious look fell on George, and George felt like he was being pricked with needles.

George didn't panic or make any move to escape.Instead, he kept taking detours on the road, heading towards dark places.

Knowing that George had entered a dead end, the five men who had been following him pulled out their guns and blocked the way.

George also pretended to be scared and said, "What do you want to do?"

One of the leaders said: "What are you doing? I just saw that my friend seems to have won a lot, and I am going to invite you back as a guest. I can borrow some money to spend."

Several other people also showed their yellow teeth and laughed strangely.

"Oh, that's right."

"What, boy, are you stupid?" The people blocking the road burst into laughter after saying this.

George also looked at each other with a smile, and then saw a figure appearing behind several people.In just a moment, a line of blood appeared on the necks of four of them.Only the leader was left alive, but the hand holding the gun also left his body.

The figure that appears behind him is his true form, and the one in front is just his shadow clone.After all, safety is the most important thing, and he has no interest in pretending to be sexy and acting stupid.

After all dangers were eliminated, George walked to the person with one hand left and said, "I ask, you answer. If you answer wrong, I will let you know how lucky they are." After speaking, he pointed. Four bodies had fallen to the ground.

The leader of the gang covered his broken arm with one hand and fell to the ground, looking at the person in front of him in horror.He felt that this person was not a human being at all, but a complete devil.

"You devil, don't kill me. We are from the Jewish gang. You can't escape even if you kill me."

"You still know how to scare me." After saying that, George stepped on the broken hand with his foot, and the person under his feet let out a miserable howl. "Spare me, spare me, I will say anything."

Then, under a friendly exchange between the two, the little guy told him all the information about the Jewish gang that he had just mentioned.

According to the gangster's account, An said that this hotel is now managed by a Jewish gang. Since he won a large sum of money today, a gang leader arranged for them to get the money back.And these thugs just wanted to take George back and beat him dry before dealing with it.

This kind of thing couldn't be easier for them, but this time they hit the wall.

From the mouth of this little gangster, I learned that the Jewish gang not only managed two casinos here, but also ran a loan company nearby and managed more than 200 prostitutes.Their headquarters is on the second floor of the lending company, and the third floor is where they store their money.On the last three days of each month, the Jewish gang will tally up all the income for the month, and then wait for the boss of the Jewish gang to hand over the profits before dividing the accounts among the people below.

There were only a few days until the day when the Jewish gang had to remit their accounts. George looked at the five people lying on the ground in front of him, and originally wanted to use legal methods to make a quick buck.Who knows, some people don't want to settle down.

Five firearms were taken away, including four Colt M1911s, a British Webley MKVI revolver, and several magazines.George turned around and left here, and someone would naturally pick up the body.

As soon as George turned onto the main road, he saw two people supporting each other and staggering towards the alley here.

Not wanting to cause trouble, George turned sideways and let the person pass.Then he took a few quick steps and was ready to leave this place of right and wrong.

It happened that George saw several thugs with guns in their hands rushing towards this side, shouting: "Quick, catch up with those two yellow-skinned pigs."

Hearing what these people said, George immediately stopped.These people passed by George, and one of them bumped into George.However, George directly let go of the other party's shoulder, and the other party staggered instead, but perhaps considering that there was something else ahead, he just glared at George and left quickly.

After they all entered the alley, George took out an M1911 from the space and followed the footsteps in front of him and entered the alley again.

　Sorry, dear book friends, Zhutou is unwell and forgot to update for a day.However, Pig Tou will persevere, not eunuch, thank you.
