Chapter 43 Mindless and unhappy

"Listen, man, don't get in any more trouble. We've had enough bad luck lately."

Franklin frowned.

He and Lamar have known each other since childhood and attended the same high school.

Because of the skin color, the two suffered discrimination in high school.

Franklin was young and hot-tempered. He could not tolerate such humiliation, so he and his good friend Rama often fought with those classmates who discriminated against them.

As time went by, the two became the number one problem students in the school.

After discussions with the school department leaders, the two were forced to drop out.

Both of them came from poor families, so naturally they didn't get much help from their families and could only find ways to make a living.

But this is where the difficulty lies.

In America, it is impossible for a dark-skinned person who has not yet finished high school to get a decent job.

So Franklin had to hang out on the streets with his little friend Rama.

Once upon a time, Franklin was very poor, so he set his sights on a small bank and planned to make a big move.

But the final result is ridiculous.

He was very nervous and finally only robbed two thousand dollars. He thought he could use the money to live a carefree life.

But what he didn't expect was that those damn banks actually prepared anti-theft paint, which destroyed all the money he robbed, and he couldn't spend a penny.

After this failure, Franklin was not discouraged.

After that, he became more and more courageous and relentless on the road of crime.

Until one day, he was caught by the police and was imprisoned for a long time.

It was not until today that he was released and became a free man again.

Thinking of the past, Franklin couldn't help but sigh.

Life in prison was not easy, and he thought a lot while in there.

He suddenly felt that his past life was such a failure and so muddled.

Perhaps, it was because of this that his beloved Tanisha left him.

When he thought of Tanisha, Franklin felt even more depressed.

His attitude was seen by Rama on the opposite side, who said unhappily.

"Come on, man, be happy now that you're out. Do you know how much I spent on this meal?"

Rama didn't lie.

In order to welcome Franklin, he specially chose the restaurant that he thought was the most upscale.

This bill almost used up all his savings, and he even pawned his beloved necklace.

"Rama, I'm just wondering if there's a different way to live."

Franklin was serious.

But Rama couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Dude, what nonsense are you talking about, have you gone crazy from being locked up in there?

Look, times have changed, that Grove Street gang is all gone, there aren't any strong gangs on the street now.

As long as the two of us brothers work hard enough, we will definitely be able to carve out a niche for ourselves.”

Rama said, dancing around as if he had thought of some delicious food.

Franklin was not as excited as him and was still in a depressed mood.

He doesn't want to be in a gang anymore, that's a dead end.

If possible, he would like to do legitimate business now, find a job to make a living, and then start his own company when he has saved enough money.

Maybe in the future, he can become a CEO or something, drive an SUV, and travel with his wife and children.

"What the hell!"

Rama's loud shouting interrupted his thoughts.

Following his gaze, Franklin looked out the window and finally understood why Lamar was making such a fuss. "That's a Ferrari, that guy is really rich, and he has that beautiful chick with a super nice ass!

Shit, why does God always give good luck to bastards like this! "

Lamar chattered on and on in a rap-like tone, stuffing fries into his mouth.

He had no idea that his good brother had already begun to think about joining him.

Franklin heard some of the conversation between the man and woman just now.

Although he didn't quite understand what he heard, he just felt that it was very impressive and that the man was very far-sighted.

Most importantly, he had the goals and direction that he lacked the most.

If he could hang out with that man, perhaps his entire life would be transformed.

……

A month later.

new York.

Midtown Manhattan.

A restaurant called the Krusty Krab is currently undergoing renovation.

Although there is still some time before the opening, Tommy has already made a lot of preparations in advance.

He hired a group of people to do some promotion on the Internet.

Although the Internet was not as popular as it is now, there were already social networking sites like Facebook, but they were not open to the general public at the time and only served major universities."

Tommy knew all this because of his experience at college.

It’s a pity that he found out too late.

If he had known about Facebook's existence earlier, perhaps he would have invested some money in it and made a fortune when the stock price rose in the future.

But after thinking about it, he decided to forget it.

The Internet is a very expensive thing, and his net worth is probably not enough to waste it all.

He should just work hard on his business and wait until he has enough money. Twitter and Instagram are waiting for him, so he doesn't need to be too anxious.

Not only the Internet, Tommy also used traditional media for publicity.

He still remembers the special guest he met in the prison restaurant.

At the beginning, he did not want to be in the spotlight, so he did not reveal his identity to the outside world and did not let the famous chef from the UK know his name.

But this time, it seems he can take advantage of it.

Today, Tommy no longer needs to hide his identity.

Thanks to Gianna's manipulation, "Tommy Vercetti", who was on parole in Italy, died in a car accident not long ago and bid farewell to the world completely.

And although he was also called Tommy Vercetti, he looked exactly the same as before.

But legally speaking, he was a completely new person.

He has a birth certificate, a driver's license, and even social security.

No matter how the FBI investigated, he was clean and had no criminal record at all.

It is actually very difficult to do this.

Tommy didn't know how this was done, but he understood that Gianna must have put in a lot of effort and connections to make it so perfect.

For this, he had to thank Jaina.

Today, Tommy can appear openly and no longer has to hide like before.

However, before officially starting his business life, he still had one last thing to do.

"It's time to take action."

After waiting for a whole month, the turmoil outside was over and the enemy completely relaxed their vigilance.

This time, he must get it back from the Russian gang with interest!
