Chapter 187: Blood Donation Station, Coffin Building
At the end of March, the admission application for Harvard University was approved.
Lunca officially reserved a spot at Harvard University and would enroll in early September in the autumn.
And under Louis's arrangement, Hailey also bought a house nearby to live in and enrolled in Lake High School. Because of her age, she was expected to go to MIT this year.
Five months later.
Time came to the end of August.
Early morning.
In a square in Orlando, in front of a pure white building, there was a crowd of people. There were people of all races here, black, white, Chinese...
Even the class seemed very blurred.
One could see homeless people who had nothing, suit-wearing people checking the time with watches, and ordinary housewives.
No matter what class they were, those who could come to this place had only one purpose.
The white building slowly opened its doors, and a group of staff members wearing white coats with red cross signs began to collect information at the tables.
"David Drayton, resident of Xiangguo Street, born in... no history of genetic disease... can I see your driver's license?"
"Good, registration complete, please enter. Our staff will perform a blood test for you. If there is no problem, you can officially donate blood."
The man named David Drayton nodded, then asked with some trepidation, "Can you really get thirty dollars for donating blood once here?"
As soon as this question came out, everyone nearby who was queuing quietly pricked up their ears, their eyes looking over frequently.
"You are wrong." The staff member denied.
"Oh, shit, I knew it. How could it be ten dollars higher than other blood donation stations."
"Fake? Damn! You are committing fraud!"
"My child is still waiting for today's food, I don't have much money left..."
"..."
The crowd was a bit restless.
The staff member said at the right time, "To be precise, it is 30 dollars for the first blood donation. In this month, every time you come again, it increases by ten dollars. You can donate plasma eight times a month, which means the highest is one hundred dollars at a time."
"Of course, these are the prices for plasma. If it is whole blood, then the price for one time is 200 dollars."
"These are all real, settled on the spot."
The staff member pointed to the bank next to them.
Hearing these words, the people around looked at each other, followed by discussions. Most people had happy faces because this price was really good.
The average monthly salary of the working class was only 2,500, plus the current wave of unemployment, many people's salaries couldn't reach 2,500. And if they donated plasma eight times a month, it would be 520 dollars, enough to subsidize household expenses.
Many housewives and homeless people showed excited expressions. Only those working-class people in suits who looked quite good were a bit dissatisfied, but they didn't leave the queue.
Obviously, they also needed this money.
"Great, it's actually true."
"Kano Company is really a good person."
"I can buy an extra piece of bread for my child."
"Phew... fortunately there is this institution, it seems it can be used for emergencies."
"..."
Accompanied by the influx of people, the staff in the white building were also busy. Although the blood drawing work was not difficult, there were too many people coming. For the sake of efficiency, it naturally became busy.
Fortunately, they were not doing this for the first day. Although busy, they were busy but orderly, in good order.
Louis, who came here to inspect, was very satisfied.
Beside Louis was Yasen, dressed as a gentleman. He lifted his gold-rimmed glasses, "Little Louis, how is the suggestion Second Uncle gave you?"
Louis hadn't bent his mouth down from the beginning to the end, smiling from ear to ear, "Very good, too good."
The power of the unemployment wave was even more powerful than he imagined.
From the establishment of the blood donation station in April to now, it was full every day, especially after the professional manager sent by the family engaged in an upgrade system marketing.
In order to earn the higher money every month, these people were completely tied to his family's blood donation station, and the spread was becoming more and more widespread, and the flow of people was getting larger and larger.
He had to build other blood donation stations. Now it was not only Orlando, but also Miami. City blocks, suburbs, counties, and towns below were all laying out Kano blood donation stations.
And the blood obtained from this, part of it was used by Louis to condense essence blood and fill it into the Blood River Bead. Now the Blood River Bead had been hard-pushed out of the tenth layer of restrictions by this full blood. He felt that if it continued like this.
This magic treasure might be completed faster than his cultivation base.
As for the other part, it was made into various blood products and sold outward.
The objects of sale were hospitals, health centers, foreign countries, etc., especially England, which was a country with a large blood gap.
These were key customers.
Profit every month.
Looking at these Americans who had happy faces and even thought Kano Company was doing good deeds, Louis sighed a little.
Who said that if the country is strong, the people will be rich?
He thought it was just average.
Not as good as the confrontation period.
Developed countries, selling blood to support the family became a trend...
"The establishment of blood donation stations can stop for a while, build them slower." Yasen suddenly said.
Louis's eyes flashed, and he nodded. He knew why. Although the unemployment wave was fierce, it had just appeared and had not fully expanded. This was a process of gradual progress.
"Second Uncle, how is Grandfather?" Louis turned to other topics.
Yasen paused and lit a cigarette, "That building is about to be built. Just these two days, Little Louis, are those things you said true?"
Louis smiled, "Of course."
Yasen took a deep breath of smoke and slowly exhaled a smoke ring.
The eyes behind the gold-rimmed glasses were shining, like crystal, "Good, very good."
"Can this kind of ability be used on others?"
Louis raised an eyebrow and looked at Second Uncle, "Second Uncle, it is possible, but are you sure?"
Yasen swallowed his saliva, took a deep breath, and one smoke ring after another spread in the air. Louis waved his hand slightly, and all the smoke turned into a small ball and was thrown outside.
He understood Second Uncle's thoughts.
To be honest, when this technique appeared, Louis had thought about its effect.
Since ancient times, when have there been few big figures limited by lifespan?
Mastering lifespan is equivalent to obtaining a monopoly on an extremely rare necessity. In this capitalist country, it is easy to use this to ascend to an extraordinary status.
However!
Everything has pros and cons.
Not to mention whether this mysterious power would cause a backlash from forces like the church, just those big capitals like hyenas, the Bureau, etc., would not let the Kano family enjoy this power alone.
Most importantly, this would completely expose Louis to the eyes of the upper class.
At that time, I am afraid many troubles would come.
Yasen finally extinguished the cigarette, "Greed will make Adam and Eve driven out of the Garden of Eden by God. It seems I made the most primitive mistake."
Greed blinds the mind, this is normal, as long as one can calm down, it is fine.
"Little Louis, you handle it yourself, these things shouldn't be said by me."
Louis nodded.
At this time, Yasen picked up the phone, responded a few times, hung up, and looked at Louis, "Okay, it seems our conversation this time has to be paused. The building you mentioned has been built."
Building a building shaped like a coffin in five months, this speed was already quite fast, and it could even be said to be incredibly fast. Of course, this mainly relied on the power of money, three shifts, sufficient materials, and sufficient funds.
Under such circumstances, the infrastructure speed was naturally fast.
However, when Louis came to Miami and saw this building, he suddenly realized why it was so fast.
It turned out that only the main body was built, and other decorations had not been carried out yet!
Uncle Max, Grandfather Karl, old butler Afu, plus Louis and Second Uncle, all stood here looking at this building shaped like a coffin.
"Little Louis, what do you think this building is best used for?" Karl asked, leaning on his cane.
"How about a cheap apartment?"
"In order to help the poor, only low rent is charged, and certain benefits will be given every month. The only requirement is that a voluntary agreement must be signed before entering." Louis said decisively.
"In addition, the elderly and the seriously ill are not allowed to move in, and each person can live for a maximum of five years. After that, they must leave."
To absorb life, one must be voluntary, and this kind of thing is after all taking a side path. It is best for everyone to absorb less life, so Louis said these rules.
Karl nodded and agreed with Louis's idea.
It is better to treat this kind of thing as a transaction. Otherwise, if he gets lifespan by deceiving others, he always feels that it will deepen his sins.
Especially since he often communicates with Afu, he believes a little in the Taoist concept of retribution and the Buddhist concept of cause and effect.
Afterwards, Louis took things and walked in.
Coffin longevity is not just about building a coffin room. That is just what people in the folk, lacking techniques, spread by word of mouth and messed up. The real coffin longevity has its own ways.
Louis, according to what was taught in the golden page, placed mirrors in appropriate positions in the building, buried paper strips with his grandfather's birth date written in blood in each room, and all rooms in this building had no thresholds...
Many cumbersome rules were checked one by one. After walking through the whole building.
Louis walked out and stood in a triangular position with the building.
Now, under the Spiritual Eye technique, the whole coffin building had changed. Strands of inexplicable suction were being born, pulling a certain force around it.
This is Feng Shui.
This place was personally chosen by Louis.
Hiding wind and gathering Qi, pulling the life machine of the trees contained in the lush park gardens around...
"Feng Shui, folk customs, locking lifespan with a coffin, nourishing the body with Feng Shui, absorbing life with a contract, and extending twenty years of Yang lifespan!"
"In ancient times, I could be considered to be going against the heavens, right?"
Louis muttered to himself, but his head involuntarily looked at the sky, observing whether a thunderbolt would strike down and kill him.
Going against the heavens will always lead to heavenly tribulations and human tribulations.
In this different world, what changes will there be?
