"Sorry, I didn't mean to hear it. But I was right next to you and I still heard some."

Abel hung up the phone and heard David next to him say:

.

"[Make Tarrant great], that sounds like a campaign slogan."

"That's right. That's the campaign slogan."

Albertan is open-minded and has no intention of hiding anything from David Mellon.

In the United States, if you have money, you can run for office.

This is the choice of many rich people, whether they are new rich or old rich.

The simplest example.

Since the 1980s.

The mayor of New York has almost always been held by wealthy people.

Among them, Bloomberg, who has not yet taken office, has completed the transformation from a billionaire to a tens of billions during his tenure.

"Texas? Tarrant?" David Mellon asked.

"Yes. My hometown." Abel said:

"My father felt that his later life should be more exciting.

He plans to launch a new challenge in his life.

I think that's great and I support him."

David shrugged in an American style and said softly:

"Perhaps I can help you? Have you ever heard of Senator Thaster?"

Abel was unsure: "This name seems to belong to one of our Texas congressmen?"

Members of Congress in the United States are divided into senators and representatives.

There are only two senators per state, and they are only elected once every seven years.

There are 435 members of the House of Representatives in total, and the rule is that one is elected for every 700,000 people.

In other words, states with larger populations will have more representatives.

In 2000, Texas had a population of 21 million, making it one of the most populous states in the United States.

So the entire state of Texas has thirty representatives.

With so many members of the House of Representatives, they generally do not stay in Texas, but in DC.

It's the capital.

The previous Abel didn't care about this, so logically speaking, he wouldn't remember Representative Thassod.

But this Thassid is already considered a veteran member of the House of Representatives, having served many times in succession.

He also tried to attack the governor's seat twice and the senator's seat once.

Although they were unsuccessful, they made a lot of news in Texas during the campaign.

Therefore, even ordinary Texans will have some impression of Sarsid.

"That's right. He is still my uncle. He is the husband of my father's sister." David Mellon said.

Abel raised his eyebrows, thinking that the relationship between these old moneymen was really intricate and tangled.

Abel also understood that David said this with good intentions, probably to show that he was in need.

Alexander can ask Representative Thasid for help in Tarrant's campaign.

A person can stay in the position of a member of the House of Representatives for such a long time, and he can still be everlasting even if he fails to try for the top three times.

This proves that his position in Texas is relatively stable.

"Thank you." Abel said with a smile: "But it may not be necessary now. My father probably just wants to have fun. When he really wants to take this path in the future, even if you don't tell me, I will let you

Let’s see if there are any connections we can exploit.”

David shrugged and nodded in understanding.

"Let's go." Abel then walked out of the company and took the elevator.

Soon after, he walked out of the Woolworth Building.

It was already past eleven o'clock in the evening, almost twelve o'clock.

He looked up at the entrance of the Woolworth Building and saw several tall financial office buildings nearby. They were still brightly lit, and he could even see people walking around.

In terms of traffic, this street is probably the most popular in the United States.

Tonight, in the international foreign exchange market, another fat black swan fell.

Financial companies with foreign exchange business are probably still busy at the moment.

Shaking his head, he sat sideways in the Maybach 62s driven by driver Andy, and left Wall Street at twelve o'clock.

"Boss, where are you going?" the driver Andy asked in a low voice.

Wall Street is located in the southern part of Manhattan Island and geographically belongs to Lower Manhattan.

"Let's go to No. 357 West 17th Street, Downtown." After thinking about it, Abel said softly.

Driver Andy suddenly understood, responded softly, turned the steering wheel lightly, and drove onto the road.

during the day,

Manhattan Island is very congested, with cars and people everywhere.

At night, the streets are also very congested.

But once it gets late at night, the previously congested streets of Manhattan suddenly seem to become more spacious.

There are fewer cars and fewer people.

This doesn't mean that people here don't go out once twelve o'clock comes.

Although there are beautiful scenery here almost every day, it is not to this serious level.

The reason for this is that although the New York subway operates 24 hours a day.

But after twelve o'clock, many areas will be out of service.

Among them, the stops and routes on Manhattan Island have the most stops.

In addition, the residences, rents, hotels, etc. on the island are completely unaffordable for the working class.

It was night, transportation was inconvenient, and there was no place to stay.

Why are you still staying on the street if you don't go home?

So once late at night, Manhattan Island naturally becomes less congested.

The journey takes half an hour during the day and takes less than ten minutes late at night.

357 West 17th Street, Lower Manhattan, New York, arriving soon.

This is a 6-story, 5-bedroom, 12.5-bathroom street-facing townhouse.

The indoor area is 11,000 square feet, and the monthly property tax alone is $13,500 per month.

Judging from the property tax, we know that this house is expensive and classified as a luxury home.

It is in a great location, in the heart of the southern part of Chelsea, Manhattan.

Surrounded by New York City's most wonderful restaurants, bars, cafes and shops.

It can be said that Manhattan is a place full of entertainment and entertainment, and a place full of literary and artistic atmosphere.

The first floor is divided into two rooms, the left and right rooms, and the left side is a garage that can park two cars.

Inside the garage, a beautiful yellow Beetle is already parked.

On the right is the brass alloy entrance door, which has traces of wind and rain and looks very simple.

Black Maybach 62s and black Lincoln City slowly stopped in front of the villa.

In the Lincoln city car behind, the black bodyguard Lincoln got off, came to the brass door of the villa and rang the doorbell.

Soon, a voice sounded from an electronic device next to the brass door: "Who?"

"963761."

Lincoln said calmly.

The electronic device went silent, and with a creak, the heavy brass door slowly opened.

A white man wearing a suit and a serious face appeared behind the door.

"Good evening, Steve." Lincoln greeted.

"Good evening, Lincoln." Bodyguard Steve responded while looking at the two cars behind Lincoln.
