Modern Traveler-Chapter 68. Making Cash
Chapter 68 - 68. Making Cash
Neo who is oblivious to all that's happening on the internet platform, arrives at his house with Leo
*Ultron makes basement under the garage*
*noted host. Deducting 100 SP. Your remaining SP is 529,900* ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
"Is this your house Neo? So big" Leo
"Yeah this is my house and that is my parent's house" I pointed to the house beside mine
"Wait here let me check first" I walked to my garage and saw a door connecting to the basement. After opening the door, I walk inside and dump 40 tons of 24k gold. This particular gold is already molded to be a gold bar. The world government processes them and stocks them inside the treasure vault
"Leo, come here. Take a look at this gold!" Leo, who had been waiting near the garage, heard Neo calling his name. He walked over and soon found himself in front of the door. When he saw the contents of the basement, his eyes grew wide, and he blinked more than usual in disbelief
Looking at the gold bars in front of him, at least 3000 gold bars. This was the first time he saw this kind of wealth. If Neo let him handle this, the commission he will receive is enormous
"So much gold. Where did you get this much gold Neo? Can I hold one?" after getting the approval of Neo, he stretched his arms and took the gold bar to examine it
"That's a secret. What do you think? Wait for a moment" Neo looked around and saw a piece of paper and a pen inside a drawer. He wrote a letter and gave it to Leo.
"I want you to give this to your boss, also bring 1 gold bar to prove that this was legitimate and take a picture with it. This is my number. I'll wait for your boss's response" Neo gives Leo an instruction as to what he will do
Leo is excited. After taking pictures and picking one gold bar, he immediately left. This kind of transaction can't be delayed he said
"Ah? He doesn't have a car to drive. Nvm he can handle it" Neo now has nothing left to do. Thinking for a while he visits his parents next door
"Hello. What are you watching?" after entering the house, I saw my sister and mom watching tv
"Oh the famous man graces us with his presence" Dad who was relaxing in the kitchen looked at me and said
"Who is famous?" confusion can be seen all over my face
"You. Who else?" Amelia barges into the conversation
"You look stupid when you are confused. Look at the social media. People are looking for you. Women start looking for you, while men hmm, they want you to die, I guess" Dad laugh
I retrieved my cell phone from my inventory and opened it. Opening my FB account, the first thing I saw was an article about me.
"So Madison and Sabrina use this time to public our relationship. Sooner or later they will know it, I don't care about what they will say about me"
"I saw one of your previous classmates Commenting about you. Soon more articles will be public, and you will be known all over the US. The only problem with this is, that people will try to take pictures with you when you are in public" Amelia
"Just politely said No and soon trend that Neo won't accept pictures in public will be known, right? I'm not an artist to please them, I'm not also influencers who need people's good side. I'm just famous because I'm rich and handsome" Popularity will bring me benefits
What benefits am I talking about? The benefit that could introduce me to famous girls. Who hasn't romanticized them a little, right? In the past, I was only handsome but not rich, so I couldn't afford to connect with them. Now that I have both qualities, I believe they'll contact me. Asking me for an interview or podcast, maybe streaming together would be an exciting opportunity to hehehe
At the moment, I'm fully embracing my Nouveau riche life. If you have the opportunity to have anything, why settle for a boring life? He didn't have experiences like this when he was growing up, but now that he has the freedom to do anything, he's determined to take advantage and enjoy it to the fullest.
"Ah, Neo, by the way, I forgot to mention that I have already exchanged your 49,400 bitcoin. Cryptocurrency can be quite complicated to withdraw. Your father even hired someone to teach him how to set up a Kraken account and upgrade it to Pro status, so we can withdraw without any limits" Mother stood up and walked to her bag. She handed me a card
"I'm returning your debit card. Your bank account has $4.5 billion in it. After you left, Chase Bank sent letters containing your new black cards. With these black cards, withdrawing Bitcoin became much easier."
"Thanks, Mom. I will transfer the money to you later. I was planning on selling some gold from my inventory, and I expect to make at least 4 billion from that transaction"
My mother, who was previously against spending money on things we didn't really need, now seems more relaxed about it. She just lets me do what I want. However, it's a different story with the twins; they still have to follow her rules.
"Hey, Amelia, where are you planning to go to college? Bring that dimwit with you. Looking at his behavior, he doesn't know what to study," I said after getting the debit card, as I sat on the couch and asked Amelia.
"I was planning on taking the exam at the University of California, Los Angeles. And yes, George doesn't know what to do right now. The school will resume soon."
"I was thinking about buying a house in Bel Air. That would be great for you too since it's near your soon-to-be university. After living without you guys, I suddenly miss you all. Let's live together again."
"Really son? That will be great" his mother who was listening to the conversation got excited
"When will you start looking for a house, Neo? Bring me along; I want to check it out too," Amelia said excitedly.
"Ah, it's 3 PM now, right? Let me call this dude and see if he can join us," Neo said as he picked up his phone to call Noah. Noah is Sabrina's cousin, and he was the one who recommended the house we are living in today.
Noah who was having a coffee break because no customer had been calling him for a few days now, heard his phone ringing. Reaching into his pocket and saw a number in it, thinking that maybe this was another client
"Hello, how can I help you?" Noah asks
"You are Noah, right? Sabrina's cousin?" neo asks
Hearing this familiar voice, Noah started brainstorming and soon remembered Sabrina's boyfriend. He immediately fixes his tone and his demeanor changes
"Is this Neo Gray, Sabrina's boyfriend?" he wants to confirm if his guess is correct
"Yes, I'm Neo. Do you know anyone selling a house in Bel Air? I'm looking for a new home"
"No need to look for another agent, Neo. I have some recommendations. We can go there right now if you have time"
"Okay. We will meet there" Neo hung up the call
