America 1919

In 1919, Donnie's soul traversed into the United States. To start off, Donnie, just a soldier who had recently stepped down from the battlefields of World War I, was framed by his superior. Before the Prohibition era began, he took over a bar in Atlantic City. With the perspective of a transmigrator and ruthless tactics, he gradually became the largest bootlegger in America. In the roaring twenties, Donnie delved into bootlegging, ran beauty pageants, built his career, and stormed Wall Street. Decades later, when people studied modern American history, they found that the name 'Donnie Block' was one they simply could not ignore!!!

Donnie sat there without speaking, waiting for William Mellon's follow-up.

"But as partners, and also as an expression of our apology for the last incident, Mellon Bank still provided you, Donnie, with an $8 million loan. This isn't because we believe the venture will definitely be successful, but because we believe that you, Donnie, will surely succeed.

However, this money belongs to the bank after all, so if you can't repay the loan when the time comes, I hope you can understand the actions taken by Mellon Bank!"

Donnie looked at William Mellon and said, "Of course, that was what we had agreed upon beforehand."

Although the profits from bootleg liquor had begun to flow back, the bootleg liquor market had expanded too broadly, and just transportation alone was a significant expense, so Donnie was currently unable to come up with $8 million cash all at once.

However, this situation would be completely resolved by October.
