America’s Road To Wealth

  Chapter 382 It’s really just Christmas

  A good and strong biological clock allowed Abel to wake up after only two hours of sleep.

   When he woke up, next to him was Charlize who was soundly asleep.

  Little Alia's mother has been a disaster for a long time. The fighting power was so strong last night, if replaced by a normal man, it is estimated that he will be messed up today.

  It is also an abnormal man like Abel, who in turn makes her unable to get off.

   It is estimated that it will not be noon, she will not wake up.

  Abel stretched out his hand and weighed it on little Alia's grain warehouse.

   It has grown, but only a little.

   smiled and kissed the sleeping Charlize on the face.

  Abel just entered the bathroom in the bedroom, and left the main house after washing up.

  Going downstairs, he wanted to go outside, but remembered that there was his daughter next door.

   This feeling was quite strange, he turned and entered the baby room.

  In the baby room, the two nurses from last night have been replaced by two other nurses.

   Seeing the master appearing, both of them stood up cautiously.

  Abel nodded at them, and walked over to see his daughter.

  The little one is still sleeping, and sleeps soundly after drinking milk powder.

   Poor baby.

  Maybe how long her dad has been here.

   How long she may have to drink milk powder.

   Blame her mother.

  In terms of food output, it is really mediocre.

  Abel felt that perhaps Li Xinyu's output would be very impressive in the future.

  Maybe you can feed three or four at a time, but not necessarily.

   It is said that relatives and sisters are generally very similar due to genetic factors.

   Wait a few more months, after Li Fuzhen gave birth.

  Perhaps we can infer Li Xinyu's based on the output of the eldest sister.

   Oh, and a heavyweight boss.

  Ekana who is more magnificent than Li Xinyu.

  The time when she and Li Fuzhen gave birth should not be too far apart.

  Abel felt that maybe the output of a few of them could take care of their children and themselves at the same time.

   He still hopes that there will be fewer people like Charlize who are unsatisfactory.

   Nutritionists and scientists have said that breastfeeding is the best!

  Thinking like this, he happily left the baby room.

   When he came to Smith Farm Villa, the most central family living room.

  Alex couple, and Alexander couple are already in the living room.

  Mom and Grandma, both very happy to see him, came to hug and kiss him on the face.

  Father and grandpa, the performance should be more calm and manly. Alexander just nodded to him and said hello, the standard daddy style.

  Grandpa’s words, kiss each other from generation to generation, the grandpa and grandson smiled and said a few more words.

  The family happily ate breakfast.

  Emily and Alia, they said they were going to call Charlize.

   was pushed away by Abel. Abel said that little Alia had a lot of trouble last night, and Charlize took care of her until she just went to bed in the morning, so she wouldn't get up so early.

   But don’t worry, this is very normal for new mothers in infancy.

  Both Emily and Arya have had children, so they know what Abel said.

   The two didn't say anything more, but after breakfast, they went to see their granddaughter/great-granddaughter together.

  The three men of the Smith family, after a few discussions.

  Finally decided unanimously, in the most Anza tradition.

  Grandpa, father, and grandson went to cut a small tree to use as the Christmas tree for the Christmas family tonight.

  This tradition exists in many countries in the European and American world.

  Most of them will cut down trees on Christmas Eve, or two days before Christmas Eve.

  The most famous tree feller should be Washington, the Ax of Cherry Blossoms.

  The story of the cherry tree and the small ax is made up all over the world.

   And Abel felt that if this story was true, then the reason why the father of the father of the United States was so easy to talk at that time.

  The high probability is that Washington had an ax in his hand at the time, but he didn't.

  Abel didn’t come back until midnight last night, and the two old men wanted to wait for him to come back to do the job, so they didn’t cut down the tree in advance.

  Then go cut the small tree today.

   Fortunately, it is Christmas morning, and there is still time.

  The three grandparents, father and son, went to the big garage of the farm villa.

   There are several brand new Ford F150 and F350 trucks parked in the garage, two Chevrolet trucks, and a Cadillac Escalade SUV.

  On the three walls of the garage, there are all kinds of tools and accessories, just like a modern workshop.

  In the United States, this is considered standard in middle-class families with independent villas.

  This is especially true in the southern states and many central states, that is, the traditional conservative forces in the United States, or the so-called "red neck states".

   This group of people has strong hands-on skills, and they are actually the real backbone of this country.

  When this group of people is almost dead, the United States will no longer be the country that once had the ability to oppress the world.

   When he got there, Alex didn't work. Command sons and grandsons, keep taking tools from the wall.

  The necessary chainsaws, axes, pull ropes, pulleys and other tools are all placed on the largest Ford F350 pickup.

  Abel looked at it and found that it was one of the few pickups he bought when he came back last year.

  10.2-liter V-type 8-cylinder diesel engine, 6-speed automatic transmission, 6 meters long, 2 meters wide, 2 meters high, and weighs more than 3 tons.

   Grabbed enough tools, Alexander drove, Abel sat in the passenger seat, Alex sat in the back.

  When the pickup truck drove out of the garage, seven or eight off-road vehicles and pickup trucks of various kinds surrounded it.

   That is the rock security staff, who will follow the Smith family into the mountain later.

  Although it is only a hill, it is also within the scope of Smith Farm.

   But it will also be far away from the core area of ​​Smith Farm, and the security measures that should be provided are naturally everything that Abel requires.

   "...Hey. Boy, I think your personal security is even more exaggerated than George."

  Looking at the cars that were following up and those personnel who looked very elite, Alex in the rear compartment joked with his grandson.

  Abel shrugged:

   "Nonsense, at most 1/4. If George travels, at least dozens of Secret Service staff will follow. There are also more than 200 ClA and FlA maneuvering and deploying nearby, waiting for orders. How can I compare."

   "Um..." Alex said, "Okay. But then again, your company is doing very well in Afghanistan!"

   After the 9/11 incident this year.

  The United States launched a battle in the name of revenge, and the battle began on October 7.

   At the beginning of last month, after contacting George.

  The rock security company in Texas was hired by the Pentagon of the United States as an accompanying auxiliary special combat military personnel, and also entered the war zone.

   On the 10th of last month, the battle of Mazar-i-Sharif began.

  The PMC department of Rock Security was also involved.

  As an auxiliary combatant, his performance in street fighting is even better than that of the regular army.

   After the battle ended, the rock security PMC department, officially nicknamed "Giant", received awards from relevant parties.

  The benefits reflected in other aspects are that the Pacific Supermarket Company's share in military supplies has increased slightly.

  Among the carnival feasts of military-industrial complexes throughout the United States.

   Rock Security and Pacific Supermarket Company also got a little share of the pie.

   This little soup is almost an order worth more than 400 million US dollars.

  The profit can be more than 200 million US dollars, more than 50% of the profit.

   No wonder the United States will fight this battle for 20 years and cost trillions of dollars.

   It doesn't matter whether the enemy is strong or not.

  The important thing is that "everyone" can make money to be happy.

   This is the essence of this battle.

   "I won't get involved too deeply." Abel replied softly to his grandfather's words:

"My "giants". The stage for them to play in the future will be the broader Africa and South America. For them, Afghanistan's words are just a test, a test of blood. The death of some people will make others stronger. capable of fighting."

  Looking at the grandson, he said it easily, which actually contained many cruel truths.

   It's like talking about what to eat today.

  The cold-blooded standard is almost like those capitalists and honest customers that Alex is familiar with and understands.

  Alex felt relieved and sighed—

  He is a kind-hearted kid who loves to paint, and he became like this after staying in New York for two years.

  The Big Apple City is indeed both heaven and hell.

   is heaven for demons and **** for angels.

  Alex is a little uncomfortable with the cold-blooded grandson.

   You can tell Alex rationally, for yourself, for Alexander, or for the Smith family.

  Abel's appearance is the most correct!

  Alex is not weak. If he was poor, his friendship would not be so exaggerated.

  Even a person like Herbert who never does anything superfluous can see that he values ​​Alex very much.

  Alex has a weak heart, he can't act like a real Angsan.

  He couldn't do that to Herbert's level.

  His son, Alexander, was very unlike him in other respects. But in this respect, almost exactly like him...

   Which is why, in Alex's father's generation, the Smiths were really little more than bushes.

   But in Alex's generation, his ability is obviously no worse than Herbert.

  But the shrub family has already soared into the sky, and the Smith family is still staying where they are.

   The characters of Alex and his son are the root of all this.

   Fortunately, Abel has finally appeared.

  Thinking of this, Alex sighed, and then said:

   "Okay. From now on, Smith has the final say. I'm old anyway."

  He said this kind of "handing over power", but Alexander and Abel in front of him didn't have much reaction.

  Alexander never valued these things. Abel himself had obtained everything stronger than the Smith family.

  The background of the Smith family is of no help to him now.

   On the contrary, his appearance and rise gave the Smith family a chance to reach the top of the country.

  From this perspective, Abel cannot be regarded as "N generation".

  Abel is a generation, the first generation to create a new Smith family.

  Father, son, grandson and grandson, mainly Abel was chatting with Alex.

  A convoy of pickup trucks and off-road vehicles has driven into the woods.

  Although the road is not easy to walk along the way, the chassis of the Ford F350 is heavy enough and high enough.

   This kind of car itself is a tool cart, and its design is mainly used to take this kind of bad road.

  So whether it's rough roads or climbing hills, it's a piece of cake for it.

  There is no road in the woods, and the next step is to climb the mountain for a while.

  Leave a few people here to watch the car, and everyone else goes up the mountain.

The three of them have already changed into anti-scratch outdoor clothing, the fabric is absolutely strong and wear-resistant, and they all put on hiking shoes. Although the color is rustic, they are strong and safe, and they wear cut-resistant tactical gloves on their hands. Can make the fingers more flexible activities.

   Obviously, the bodyguards can help get the corresponding equipment.

  The three members of the Smith family all regarded this tree-cutting activity as a parent-child activity within the family.

  Get everything on the pickup truck by yourself.

  Abel put the rope on his back, picked up the chainsaw, and other tools in the bag, such as two dust covers, and he had to take it with him when he saw the tree later.

   Of course, a pair of work glasses, that is, the goggles have been worn on the forehead, and the strap of the goggles has been fixed on the forehead. When sawing trees for a while, I am afraid that dust or tree foam produced by sawing trees will get into the eyes.

  Alexander looks taller and stronger than his son. After living in the city for a year, he obviously hasn't changed his father's top-notch red-necked aura.

  Alexander carried more and heavier things than Abel.

  Abel's physique is actually much better than him, and he is stronger in terms of weight bearing.

   But Abel knew that his father liked to save face in this regard, so he left this opportunity to show off to his father.

  Even Alex, with a shotgun in one hand, trekking poles in the other.

  Edward and the others, although they don’t need to take tools anymore.

  But one or two also took out weapons such as shotguns and guns.

   After all, it is a forest, and no one knows if any beasts will come out.

  The cattle and sheep on the farm are the coyotes’ favorite poaching prey. The coyotes that harm the farm have already threatened the safety of farm residents in southern and central states.

   On top of coyotes, there are more dangerous gray wolves, and possibly bears, and even cougars.

  In short, there is nothing wrong with bringing the corresponding equipment.

  The three members of the Smith family walked into the woods together without any worries when they saw the preparations for the security of the rock.

  The lush trees are very lush. The big trees are arranged neatly and orderly according to the species. The trees are very thick and tall. Many trees are even older than Abel. With more trees, the air is naturally fresh.

  Alex started chatting with Abel about another topic.

  This time we are talking about little Laura.

   "Laura Bush, she will only turn 17 next year. Child, you can live a free life for another three years. After three years, you will have to restrain yourself a little bit."

  Abel's love interest is known to everyone in the United States. Smith even knows his own family affairs.

  In the family's farm estate, there is still a mistress of Abel, and even an illegitimate daughter.

  Abel shrugged, not discussing this with Grandpa.

  Alexander is okay, Alex and the Bush family side, are very traditional old Ansa in this respect.

   Attaches great importance to family and family, and despises or even loathes extramarital affairs.

  This kind of traditional family rarely divorces, and rarely raises mistresses outside.

   But... that doesn't stop them from being out there, calling those high-level recruits who are hundreds of thousands of dollars.

  It seems that as long as you don't support a third party, you just play high-level calling occasionally.

  That is not considered derailment to them, nor is it a violation of tradition.

  The red flags at home are not toppled, and colorful flags are not displayed outside the home, but playing with disposable ones is not considered to be colorful flags.

   There are very few people like Abel. Only the magic gate in Utah will do this openly.

   If it weren't for the fact that Momen is in the United States, it would be too non-mainstream.

  Being looked down upon and despised by the other beings, with Abel's character, it is estimated that he has now become a high-ranking member of the Demon Sect.

   Seeing that Abel didn't talk to himself about this, Alex didn't bother to talk about it.

  The main thing is that Alex also knows it, and it's useless to deal with it himself.

   After all, Abel is not the second or third generation. It is the Smith family who rely on him to have the current ecological niche.

   Not the other way around, Abel relies on the Smith family.

  The rest is simple.

  Pick a tree, cut it down with a chainsaw, trim it with an axe, move it to the pickup truck, and go down the mountain to go home.

  Moving the little tree to the living room, Charlize, who had a bright red face, along with Emily, Alia, and Abel, took the prepared decorations and began to hang them up.

  Alexander was helping to deliver things, as well as directing.

  Alex smiled and stared at little Alia, who was sleeping most of the time in the crib.

  The old man told Abel not to play around, and he would stop playing after two or three years.

  But it's also hard to hate the illegitimate daughter who flows through the blood of the Smith family.

  In the heart of the old man, he even hoped that the more children like little Alia, the better.

   It is best to have both men and women, more than a dozen would be even better.

   That's it, even if it is already possible to join the top family class in the United States.

  But the Smith family, like most traditional American families, has its own unique Christmas.

  When the Smith family is enjoying themselves and preparing for Christmas tonight.

  California, west of Los Angeles.

  Located in the north of Santa Monica Beach, one of the most prestigious beaches in Los Angeles, Malibu Beach, 25252 Malibu Road, Malibu City.

   This is a 7,361-square-foot, 5-bedroom, 6-bath top-of-the-line ocean-view house that sells for more than $8 million.

  A few days ago, Anne Hathaway, a second-tier Hollywood star, announced to the public that she bought this place and gave it to her family as their residence on the West Coast.

   While Abel was decorating the Christmas tree.

   No. 25252 by the sea in Malibu is also doing similar activities.

   But soon Annie and her family were called out to the private beach outside the villa.

  Annie looked at the other party suspiciously.

   The person who asked her and her family to come out was Jin Na, her most trusted female bodyguard.

   "Look over there." While Anne and her family were watching, Jin Na pointed to the calm sea today.

   Looking from a distance, Anne saw a white and beautiful yacht parked outside a safe sea area.

  It's too far away, I can only see it is a yacht, but I can't see the details.

   There is also a small speedboat, which is rushing towards this side through the waves, at a very fast speed.

   In a minute or two, the small speedboat rushed directly to the beach, and two people got off from it.

  One is wearing a life jacket, with a swimming ring, and is responsible for driving a small speedboat, standard sea lifeguard clothing.

  Another Annie knew, and she recognized a man who seemed to be called Alan Baker.

  He worked under Abel, and Anne remembered that he was one of Abel's important men.

   I saw Alan Baker, under the gaze of the Hathaway family. A smile came to Anne, "Merry Christmas, Ms. Hathaway, I am a temporary employee of the American Express Company, here is your Christmas present, please sign for it."

  Annie looked at the other party with some curiosity, and handed herself a "signature receipt". She looked at the other party carefully, and then looked at the small speedboat that was stranded on the beach.

  Annie, who received the "signature receipt", asked curiously, "Where is the gift?"

   "You sign it and you know."

  Alan smiles as a temporary employee of the American Express Company and helps the boss deliver Christmas gifts.

  Annie trusts Jinna very much and knows Alan.

  She nodded without hesitation, and signed her name on the "signature receipt" under the curious gaze of her family members.

  After signing, she handed the things back to Alan, "So... I have signed for it, where is my gift?"

   Allen took the "signature receipt" with a smile, and then pointed to the ship outside the safe sea area in the distance.

   "Let me introduce you. The Riva "68'Ego" parked there is your Christmas present this year."

   "It was built by Riva's shipyard in La Spezia. It is equipped with a pair of 1,550 horsepower 12VMAN engines, with a maximum speed of 38 knots and a cruising speed of 34 knots."

   "If you are interested, I am very happy to introduce some of its data to you. Of course, if you can go to it. Then you and your family will be more intuitive."

   "After all... this is a precious $11 million gift."

  As Allen's voice sounded, Anne and her family couldn't help but widen their eyes.

  Alan Baker makes an impromptu guest appearance at American Express, a senior travel services temp, presenting her Christmas presents to Annie's family.

   Allen's colleagues were not idle either.

   Like Abel's shadow David Jones, he's in different places at the same time.

   In the bush estate outside Austin, Texas, I gave little Laura a Christmas gift from her boyfriend.

  Like one of the presidents of Smith Capital, Mr. Melio was also in California at this time.

   Allen is on the beach in Malibu, and Melio is on the Santa Barbara side.

  The president of Smith Capital, on behalf of Ikana and the father of the child in her girlfriend's womb, sent them Christmas gifts.

  In addition to Allen, Merio, and David, the subordinates who are close to Abel, such as Levine and Ovitz, have such cameo performances today.

  They acted as guest staff of American Express Company, delivering Christmas gifts to many beautiful ladies.

  And the givers of these gifts ultimately have only one name.

   The name is Abel Smith.
