America's Road to Wealth

The uncanny workmanship of nature has shaped the beautiful earth.

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

There are always places and things that human hands cannot create.

Lanai is such a place that has been little processed by humans.

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

The island has a dry climate and little rainfall. The king of Hawaii once built a palace here.

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

The entire pineapple field has become the world's largest pineapple production company - Dole Company (Dole Company).

Its founder, Duer, bought this deserted island in 1922 for US$1.1 million, and spent millions of dollars to transform it into a pineapple garden, build a dock road, tap water sources, and finally established Lanai City. Changed the face of Lanai.

There are approximately two thousand 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 this island, and he used 0.6% of News Corporation's shares to obtain ownership of the island.

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

There was actually a Lanai City on the island, a town of about 2,000 people.

The population of the town mainly relies on locally produced pineapples and tourism. They basically listen to whoever is the owner of the island.

Abel plans to turn this beautiful island into his own holiday destination.

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

At least let this airport start to accommodate Boeing 747 aircraft.

This job is not difficult. There is an airport on the island, but the area is not that big. Just expand the runway and increase the airport area.

Later, he planned to build his own personal estate in the form of a palace outside Lanai City.

In the future this place will become a resort for him and Elizabeth's angels.

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

As for the original No. 1 Thirteenth Road, Royal Point, New York, it will be used as the dormitory of Esa Company in New York.

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

It exceeds the dormitories of 99.999999% of companies in the world.

This is also one of the welfare conditions for Isa Company to attract the world's top supermodels.

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

Isn't this an inspiration to the girls who are struggling in the vanity fair?

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

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

The next day, he was successfully elected again and became the new chairman of the National Rifle Association.

This means that his identity in this kingdom and the crown he carries are one more.

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

Politicians who need voters to vote are more important than wealthy people and businesses.

Who can ignore the more than 5 million votes cast by the National Rifle Association?

Even though his chairmanship is mainly of honorary nature.

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

This means that he still has influence on the association.

This is very valuable to serious customers.

July 18th.

NYU Manhattan campus is on holiday.

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

New York University uses the Semester system.

This system is used by most American universities, with semesters divided into spring and autumn, with each semester lasting approximately 16-18 weeks.

The spring semester generally lasts from mid-January to the end of May or early June, and the fall semester lasts 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 using this system will have a summer vacation of about three months.

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

Little Laura will actually be able to have a holiday at the beginning of June.

That is, she is a transfer student, and she has not even finished high school in a college preparatory class.

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

In order to accompany her, Li Xinyu did not go home during the holidays. The two of them studied together in school until now.

This time, even the professors are finally on vacation.

College students who have chosen a one-and-a-half-month advanced course will not have classes even if they don’t want to take a vacation.

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

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

There is no woman in this world who doesn’t love traveling.

They range from families like Little Laura to ordinary working-class white-collar women.

Consumerism has entered the brain, modernism has accompanied us, and there are young girls everywhere.

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

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

Of course she wouldn't be so irritating, instead she jumped into his arms with a smile and took the initiative to give him a sweet kiss.

The two decided to set off for Europe on July 20.

The first stop is London.

In fact, it was exactly what little Laura thought.

Abel went to Europe this time 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 media, such as newspapers, TV stations and the like.

The other thing is that it's almost time.

Soros has been preparing the plan for more than a month and is expected to launch it against the Kingdom of Norway in the near future.

How could Abel miss such a grand event?

He will go to Europe to take charge personally, and if necessary, he will even go to the Kingdom of Norway in person.

Soros wanted to eat meat, and Abel wanted to snatch the meat out of his bowl and eat it!

If you want to achieve this, it is not very realistic to sit in the United States and command from a distance. You must go to Europe in person.

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

After the United States becomes big, if he does not extend his tentacles to Europe, it would really be a disgrace to 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-in-chief with his great imagination, it was changed to its current name.

As the name suggests, this is also the departure and arrival point for most international flights from New York.

On the morning of July 20th.

A row of all-black motorcade drove into JFK International Airport. After the car stopped, many people got out of the car.

This group of people is none other than Abel and others.

This time when he went to England, Abel brought all four diamonds with him. In addition, he also brought more than 20 rock security staff.

Yesterday, his advisory group and another group of rock security staff even set off early.

In addition to all this, because little Laura is going too.

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

Little Laura did not come with Abel in the morning.

She doesn't live with Abel yet.

She and Secret Service staff drove two cars over 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 reply, Abel laughed directly.

Abel patted Marcus on the shoulder and said directly in front of little Laura: "Rock Security welcomes you at any time."

Hearing what Abel said, Marcus also laughed happily.

The air was filled with joy for a while.

Only Catherine curled her lips in her heart - corrupt people who abuse their power!

The reason why Catherine thinks this way is simple.

Because Abel asked Marcus, half of the Rock Security staff who set out for the UK, to get certificates issued by the Secret Service.

Proof that these people were temporary workers for the Secret Service. They are abroad, representing the U.S. Secret Service.

Until the time for a temporary employment certificate expires, these people are Secret Service agents!

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 doesn't have that much energy. He's just an operations team leader for the Secret Service.

The one who really has energy is little Laura's father, her uncle to be precise.

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

These are Abel's demands, and the reason is his damn insecurity.

When he stayed in the United States, he wanted to take more than twenty 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.

Even though he had brought enough manpower, he still thought it was not enough and wanted to give his own people a layer of vests.

With little Laura's relationship, she would be a fool if she didn't.

He simply asked the rock security personnel to become temporary employees of the Secret Service.

The purpose announced to the public is to protect little Laura. After all, she is the granddaughter of the former commander-in-chief and the niece of the current commander-in-chief.

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

Now exaggerate a little, and at the same time it doesn’t cost the Secret Service.

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

Of course, the Secret Service is happy to support him. Since he is going abroad, he doesn't have to worry about domestic public opinion if something happens.

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

It would be best if nothing happens.

If anything happens, if the name of the United States Secret Service is revealed, this name will be Abel's best protection abroad.

Little Laura doesn’t know this yet.

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

The little girl is very happy.

The group of people waited aboard Abel's brand new Boeing 747.

Time zone differences are not taken into account.

The plane takes off at nine o'clock in the morning and will arrive 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.

After all, the Atlantic Ocean is smaller than the huge Pacific Ocean.

"Boom...squeak..."

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

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

Heathrow International Airport is the main airport in 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.

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

When Abel and his party stepped down from the ladder of the plane, he smiled and took a deep breath.

"We've finally arrived. This is London, the heart of the empire on which the sun never set."

Abel exhaled and muttered to himself.

Little Laura, who was following Abel, also looked around. This was not her first time in London.

Her parents brought her here to play several times.

But it was really the first time to come to London with someone who was not my parents.

Not to mention accompanying her boyfriend, established fiancé, and future husband.

For little Laura, this was a novel, happy and exciting experience.

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

When we set off in the morning, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly in New York. The weather was very nice.

After flying over to London, the sky here was gloomy, full of dark clouds, and it looked like it was going to rain.

"I don't like the weather in London." He said to little Laura while holding her hand down the airplane ladder.

Little Laura smiled and said: "That's what London is like. There are three hundred and sixty-five days a year, and at least three hundred days it snows or rains. 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.

It snows and rains 300 days out of 365 days. Is this a place where people should live?

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

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

But the convoy could not leave immediately because there was still a modified Cadillac STS sedan that had been transferred with the Boeing 747 and had not yet been released.

When he came to London this time, Abel originally wanted to get a Cadillac Fleetwood that was the same as George Bush's Army One.

In this way, he can show off his power and make British official figures tremble when they see it.

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

It's like driving a Hongqi L7, the kind with a flagpole, to Southeast Asian countries in the 22nd century.

Therefore, he canceled the idea and only brought over the modified Cadillac STS that he usually used in New York.

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

After hanging up the temporary license plate that had been arranged long ago, the Cadillac STS came to the middle of a convoy of rented Rolls-Royces, and the convoy started to drive towards the destination.

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

Things are changing, and there is no eternal overlord in the world. The once empire on which the sun never sets has now declined.

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

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

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

More than sixty years ago, cheating art students roamed Europe, defeating the Allied forces.

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

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

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

Then came the eighties.

A Falklands War tore off John Bull's last fig leaf.

The weak Britain was exposed to the eyes of countries around the world.

Just before that, the world empire began to decline like a cliff.

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

Things are changing!

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

Prime Minister Lettuce and Prime Minister Asan are about to appear one by one.

That's when the shit-troublemaker truly declined.

Unlike London now, there is still more or less respect left, and there is still a bit of industrial foundation.

But this is also more valuable to Abel.

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

If it were the UK twenty years later, Abel wouldn't even be here.

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

The Savoy Hotel is located on the Strand in Westminster, London and opened on August 6, 1889.

It was 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 so many famous people who have stayed here.

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

This hotel looks a bit low-end on the outside, even only having 5 floors, and 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 building in London within fifteen minutes.

If there's a traffic jam, there's nothing you can do.

Now in the twenty-first century.

The Savoy Hotel may not be the best.

But its quality is the highest.

The reason why Abel lives here is not because of its high quality.

But it was arranged by David Jones.

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

David arrived one day earlier than the advisory group and another group of rock security staff.

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

The reason is simple. The Savoy Hotel is only a five-story building.

Abel and the team that came with Abel this time could completely book the entire Savoy Hotel.

Charter a hotel independently,

In this way, privacy and security are also relatively guaranteed.

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

The motorcade stopped at the door. David took the hotel manager, the rock security personnel doing security work, and the selected hotel waiters to welcome Abel and others with a respectful welcome.

Abel took the lead into the hotel lobby.

After a busy period, it looked like the sun was setting in London.

Abel always feels that the sun sets earlier in London than in New York.

I guess this has something to do with London's habitual bad weather.

Fortunately, it is now more than July, and the direct point of the sun has moved northward, and will soon reach the Tropic of Cancer. Therefore, at this time, the days are longer and the nights are shorter in the northern hemisphere, leaving Abel and others more time to move around freely.

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

Lanai, Hawaii was written incorrectly. TMD actually does not belong to Rupert Murdoch, but to David Murdoch. The two people are not the same person. David Murdoch is the fruit king of the United States.

I originally wrote more than 2,000 words to pretend to be X. When I checked the information later, I found something wrong, so I stopped revising it. But there was no way to revise it before, so I temporarily changed it to this. I would like to inform you here. . .
