Three weeks of winter vacation passed in a blink of an eye, and Edward entered the second semester of the second school year. With the start of the new semester, the biggest bad news is that his homework is still tense.

Although the class schedule is not very long, five days a week and only half a day, the pressure of elite education is not to let students spend much time in the classroom, but to the teacher's arrangement, a large number of extracurricular readings and small-class discussions in small classes. If you are negligent, it will easily become a laughing stock for everyone. This is absolutely unbearable for the United States, which emphasizes personal heroism, so everyone is trying their best.

There are two good news, first of all, Ruthberg will still teach them the Constitution course.

The profound constitution is a knowledge worth studying for a lifetime, and it is normal to lay the foundation for a school year.

Edward had decided to take the constitutional appeal lawyer route after graduation, which was very pleasing to him, and he was both academically and life-long.

Another good news is that Old Nizo officially accepted the defeat, and Springfield Elderly House won a great victory in this nursing home management competition.

The lonely Edward defeated the combination of Dami from Wharton and his Golden Retriever Brother, not to mention the management team that the Golden Retriever Brother temporarily borrowed.

For this reason, Mizrasi Rabbi was very happy and waived his grandson's debt of $50,000, which was originally agreed to be used to "handle" Bergman's case.

But Edward has a lot of complaints about this, because this cross-age routine of squeezing old money in nursing homes can bring more sustainable benefits to old people.

Moreover, judging from the meaning of Mizrasi Rabbi, it is obvious that he will also have plans to enter the elderly care industry in the future.

From this perspective, Edward admires his grandfather's eyesight in making money.

Obviously, the old guy had a deep understanding of Bergman's industrial empire and found this "sunrise industry" that is currently at a low point but will have a good yield in the future.

The US population has now crossed the 2y mark.

Although the baby boom army after the war has just become an adult - Edward himself can barely count it. The Americans who have been strong in R&F will shoulder the heavy responsibility of the United States in the next few decades, but at the same time, we must also see that the problem of pension is gradually emerging.

The growth rate of the United States has actually been quite high, approaching 40% in the early 19th century, and fell to 20% by the beginning of the 20th century, and is now still at around 15%.

This is actually a very terrifying increase, not only newborns, but also a large number of European immigrants.

At present, the pension problem in society has begun to emerge quietly, but not many people are paying attention to it.

The source of the elderly is mainly the new life of the late Gilded Age (1870-1900) and the large influx of young and middle-aged immigrants in the following thirty years. They are now old, and there is no such thing as supporting the elderly in the traditional Western culture.

The old rabbi also privately told Edward that this is a good industry and can be passed on to family members - customers are rich and weak and can be fooled, as well as good profit margins and extremely stable cash returns. And they can also rely on these old names to deceive various subsidies from the government.

No matter how you look at it, they are all good deals that conform to Jewish aesthetics.

To be honest, Edward also wanted to get involved. Of course, he didn't expect a nursing home under his name. The old rabbi would not agree, and he was not interested. If a scandal or something would affect his future development, he felt that his grandfather would generously let him add something to the nursing home system.

There was nothing in the end.

This means that he loves the money-making method he created by someone, and the future booming benefits he will bring has nothing to do with him.

"It's really a Jew!" He sighed while feeling the joy unique to his grandparents and grandchildren.

Fifty thousand dollars is not a small amount of money, it is equivalent to all the savings accumulated by a middle class for five years without eating or drinking.

At this time, money is still very valuable. Although the US dollar is actually decoupled from gold, it is still the most purchasing currency on this planet.

In theory, so is the ruble.

Moscow's official exchange ratio is 1 ruble to 1.1 US dollars, and its firmness is even greater than the old-fashioned pound.

But everyone knows what this kind of exchange rate under official control is. Anyway, Moscow residents generally have dollars in their hands and will never go to state-owned banks to exchange them. There are countless black market traders in the streets and alleys of the red capital, and they like the green US dollars the most.

The leader is like this, so the younger brother below naturally follows closely.

Other Warsaw Pact countries may be fine to do this, but East Germany, the Cold War forward, also learned from the big brother to be fat, which makes people laugh. Regardless of the economic differences between the two countries, it forced the exchange rate between East Germany and West Germany to be 1:1.

This made the NATO personnel stationed in East Berlin fleece.

Their daily wages are settled in US dollars, Sidmarks, and even francs.

So, these guys invented a gameplay, taking 100 Sidmarks and going to the black market to exchange, which can usually be exchanged for at least 200 East Demarks.

Then use this money to spend a lot of money in East Berlin. As a planned economy, East Germany has very low prices. Usually, after eating, drinking and having fun in a day, there are still 180 East German marks left.

These guys took advantage of their diplomat status to go to East German Bank and asked to exchange them for West German Mark.

This means that they eat and drink for free in East Berlin for a day. At the end of the night, they didn't spend a penny on the 100 Sidmark, but they could still give a few more tips.

Of course, NATO staff are all very high, and they actually don’t like this little wool, but eating and drinking for free and using rules to make their opponents suffer a silence is also a pleasing thing, so why not do it?

Moreover, as long as the amount is not large, the East German government is embarrassed to turn against it.

Therefore, Stasi (East German Ministry of Security) could only fight to capture various foreign currency scalpers in East Berlin.

But this work was not done well.

Stasi is a top intelligence agency and political police. He has done almost impeccable in external infiltration and internal security. They can even install their own spies around the West German Prime Minister.

But those are all "visible" enemies, or even the deepest enemy moles, will eventually leak clues in front of the powerful state machine.

But on the other hand, when they faced the vast oceans of people's war, especially the water elements, they were spontaneously formed by the East German people, they immediately caught them blindly.

There are also protective umbrellas of all sizes behind foreign exchange dealers. Stasi is also a human being, and he has to abide by various unspoken rules in the officialdom.

After a long time, I suddenly relaxed.

Later, the East German government simply opened its eyes and closed it.

Edward's 50,000 US dollars don't seem to be a lot, but if it is put in East Berlin, it will be enough for Stacey to go out.

Although the person is arrested and released, the stolen money and goods must be "confiscated". Otherwise, how can the enthusiasm of law enforcement officers be guaranteed?

Stacimon took the copied US dollars, exchanged them for the black market for East Demark, and then spent a lot of money in East Berlin, and then used his identity to exchange for the US dollar in the bank. Everyone wants to do this, it depends on whether there is a chance.

...

Edward was not very concerned about this money, and he entered the "deep water period" with the division and transportation of Bergman's heritage.

He has gained more and more benefits. He doesn't even think about the superficial wealth of money such as cash, jewelry, securities, etc., and naturally he has to respect the bosses and the clubs behind him.

Then the remaining hard bones are rewarded to the people below.

But Bergman's lifelong retirement kingdom was built. During the process of being moved by an ant, Edward and e&y law firms provided a lot of legal advice and collected a lot of money in pieces.

He also registered several outsourcing companies and provided various human resources outsourcing, food outsourcing, labor outsourcing and other services to the "Bergman Project".

To put it bluntly

It means to hire people in the labor market and then sign a labor employment contract with your company. These people enter the "Bergman Project Team" in the name of dispatch to be responsible for various specific affairs.

But after the project was completed, these laborers returned to the labor market and his company was liquidated and closed.

In this way, it means that you have to do nothing and peel off the skin from it, which is not large.

But the advantage is that there are many businesses and they are very considerable.

In addition, all kinds of daily expenses can be paid through outsourcing companies, such as daily food, drinking, defecation and sensation, which are normal personnel expenses. His own small building was also generously rented to the "Bergman Project". He did not count the rent for no reason, but also mixed the money for renovating the two bedrooms.

These are what the bosses above acquiesced, and as long as they are not too lazy to care about it.

The big guys are also mixed up in society, and they are clear about various rules and human nature. The emperor is not bad at hungering soldiers. They are common to the East and the West.

Eat meat by yourself and drink soup by your subordinates so that you can have the motivation to do things. You can also take this opportunity to examine your subordinates' eating habits and skills to determine the future development prospects of these guys.

In short, under the guidance of Mizrasi Rabbi and Edward's hard work, their eating habits were very elegant.

Everything is legal and compliant, and outsiders cannot find any fault.

Under this premise, his net worth has expanded to a scale of 50,000 US dollars.

It seems that there are not many, but considering that this is bank deposits and securities that can be cashed out at any time, it can be said that he is an absolute rich man, who has gradually left the middle class and has the confidence to impact the higher class.

What we lack now is the connections.

The United States is a highly developed capitalist society, with all kinds of light and dark rules.

If you want to do well here, it is useless to have money alone, and even money will cause trouble - lucky nouveau riche or local rich man will easily become the target of "hunting" by various forces, and will use various legal methods to squeeze out all the wealth around this guy, and then kick it away, and no longer care about his life or death.

Here, the combination of money and power is closer and more secret.

Edward knew this very well.

You must not forget all old friends when you know that you have made money.

So I allocated a lot of money from my income to maintain friendship.

For example, I gave Mr. George Duffy a few paintings.

Of course, Rembrandt and Van Gogh can definitely not afford it, but the works of Diego Rivera and Frida Carloxian seem to be cheap and good.

This artist couple is Mexican, not far from the United States, and has a sense of mystery and is not too alienated. Both husband and wife are painters - a sense of legend is enough. Although the things drawn are in the modernist style, at least the limbs and facial features are normal, which is much better than the 3D human body slaughterhouse formed by Picasso's strange pile of lines and color blocks.

Now the price is gradually rising - because, both of them have been dead for almost ten years, and the hype value has been initially available.

Four paintings cost him $30,000, but in order to make Mr. George feel at ease, he also thoughtfully attached a gallery's appraisal book "Fine Copying" and a price tag "350 USD", which is installed on the back of the frame.

As for whether Mr. George Duffy believes that this is an ordinary imitation.

Tsk, the person who asked this question obviously lacked enough understanding of the families in the New England region.

How could families who have reproduced for more than 200 years and have huge local power make such low-level mistakes?

In fact, Mr. Duffy himself has several small auction houses and galleries to help him handle similar gifts.

Mr. Duffy accepted the gift of Edward's gift with a smile.

I called the home appraiser.

After some appraisal, it was confirmed that all four of them were authentic.
