Once upon a time, there was a family, a family whose parents at

the age of 24 each had a son and named him Hernán. It was a
stable family, both had a good job in the most prestigious
companies in the country, however, Due to the lack of
communication and time, communication problems began to
occur, and the final straw was that the father lost his job due to a
problem that happened in the company, which had become
bankrupt due to the poor management of its assets. managers, in
addition, all the money he earned was not reflected in assets.
Where could it have gone? They were about to separate, when at
the age of 32 their second son was born, whom they called
Ricardo, and 4 years later, at 36, his daughter, who was called
Clara, was born.
So the couple decided to stay together for their children.
The family had entered an economic decline since the father
could not find work, so Jazmín, mother of his children, worked
twice as hard to support her family, while the father, Fernando,
could not find employment due to the fight against his illness. .
which would have caused problems when walking and
performing common activities.
After a long effort to keep his children studying, Hernán finishes
his university studies with great effort through a scholarship at
the best university in the country.
When his brother, Ricardo, was 12 years old, his brother Hernán
had to migrate to the United States in search of new
opportunities, because there were no job opportunities in his
country in the career he studied in Mechatronic Engineering.
Therefore, Ricardo had to maintain an important role within the
house, this was to help his father at the same time that he
studied, he got up at 5 in the morning to prepare to go to school
and then at 3 In the afternoon, after leaving school, he helped his
father in a livestock and agricultural field where they were
employees.
Ricardo was an ambitious, intelligent and talented young man,
but with a thirst to be successful in such a brutally competitive
way that he always wanted to be the best. As he spent time in
the countryside, Ricardo improved his skills in rustic and
mountainous life. He knew how to face the risks and dangers of
that terrain, taking care of animals and types of plantations.
Ricardo was also a fan of weapons, he wanted to be able to buy a
hunting gun so he could go in search of wild animals, he also
wanted to be able to pay for the shooting range that was in his
city, but it was too expensive and he had to find time where he
did not have at that time due to his hectic routine life.
One day when he was 14, his father got sick, he had fever,
tiredness, suddenly lost weight, the lymph nodes were huge in his
throat, his nose bled from time to time and he had problems
breathing. Her desperate son tried to go for help while his mother
was tending to his sick father, Ricardo, he resorted to asking for
help from people he knew in the city, but they all refused to help
the poor young man, so he resorted to going to cry in despair in
the countryside... , while he was milking some Holstein cows,
suddenly, a man dressed in exotic skins, with laredo crocodile skin
boots, a black cowboy hat, and gold-plated sashes approached
him and asked "What's wrong with you?" The young man, scared
but at the same time surprised at having never seen that
character, answered, "My father got sick, I don't have money to
take him to a doctor, I don't know what to do..." commented the
young man while He was crying and with a trembling voice he
said it. The man answered, "I can help you, just tell me where
your house is, and I will send 3 of my bodyguards to guard the
money that I will give you so that you can take your sick father to
a doctor, after that depending on what I tell you." the doctor, you
will take him to a specialist and you will buy the necessary
medication for his treatment, comply with all this, it is a gift, it is
not borrowed. The young Ricardo, surprised, told him through
tears. Thank you very much, you are very kind, I promise you that
I will do everything he said perfectly, in order to save the father."
The man replied, "Don't worry, hey, don't you have any other
relatives?" Ricardo answered, "Yes, I have a brother in the United
States, but since we are a Humble family, so that he could travel,
we had to pay a cost of 30,000 Dollars for some coyotes to take
him safely, but even so, he suffered a lot, and he himself helps us
with the little he can to pay that debt and keep us afloat, the
problem is that since he works a lot, we can only talk on the
phone on the weekends, whose phone is lent by a friend I have at
school in the city to talk to him, since we do not have the The
man replied, "What an interesting story, well, now, do what I told
you about your sick father and then you come back to this same
place and we will continue chatting." The young man replied,
"Yes, sir, that's fine, I'll do it." After that 3 heavily armed men
accompanied the young man as they traveled to his home in a
luxury van.
Upon arrival, the men took down 2 briefcases, each one was full
of 10,000 dollars, the young man was surprised but with agility
and speed they notified his parents that his father could now be
treated by one of the best doctors in the city, in the end , they
decided to take their father to the most prestigious medical
center in the city, the "Northern Hills" hospital. Ricardo's father,
Fernando, had been treated by a doctor who detected a very
lethal and dangerous disease, leukemia, and he prescribed a lot
of of indications, medications and injections for his father, apart
from a long process of rest, Ricardo was very happy, but he was
aware of the time of rest that his father would have to have to be
able to emerge safely from the disease, it would mean that
Ricardo would have to He left his studies to concentrate on his
work in the field. When the mother arrived home with joy but at
the same time with a bad feeling, she asked her son, Where did
you get that money? He responded doubtfully, "Ehhh... Ehhh... It
was... Hernán who managed to get the money and sent it
through a friend." The mother, noticing this somewhat nervous
attitude, questioned him and doubted him, but her fatigue was
greater and at the same time In the end she fell fast asleep. The
next morning, the truck and the armed men were no longer
there, they were only necessary to guard that large amount of
money, after paying for the doctor and the treatments they
completed their mission and retired, Ricardo again after studying
and starting to tell him to his friends of his plans to withdraw
from his studies to concentrate on working, he went again to the
cows' stable, where in a corner he was in charge of milking them,
as the hours passed, again the man quietly arrived and told him
¨My boys already told me that you complied with the orders I
gave you.¨ Ricardo responded, ¨Yes, sir, it is necessary to save my
father.¨ The man smiled and with a laugh said, ¨I know you have
many ambitions, but you don't have the necessary to start the
path, maybe I can help you get ahead. Ricardo, already with a
little fear, said, "Who are you?" The man smiled again, lowered
his hat and answered, "My name is José Venegas." , and I am the
boss of this place¨ Surprised, Ricardo replied, ¨Wow, it's
incredible, you have hardly been seen around this place, it is a
privilege for me that you are talking to me.¨ José replied, ¨Don't
worry, boy, From time to time I like to see my Holstein kennel, so
at that moment when I saw you worried I decided to help you, so
you can understand that not everything is as bad as they say.
Then Ricardo answered him nervously, "Thank you very much, I
am eternally grateful for your help." José replied, "You're
welcome, in fact... I was thinking about helping you with many
other things... Tell me, do you like something that you're talented
at?" Ricardo responded, "Yes, I really like weapons. I want to
practice my aim, but I don't have the money to go to the shooting
range or simply buy a hunting rifle." José told him, "Oh yes, you
like weapons... I I will help you so that you can learn.” Ricardo
with a little doubt, but happily said, “It would be very helpful and
would make me very happy.” Before leaving, the Mysterious man
answered, Yes, it will be.
As the days went by, Ricardo managed to communicate with his
brother, Hernán, and told her what had happened to his father.
When he heard the news, he asked him, "How did you get the
money?" Then Ricardo answered, El Patrón, from the field where
we work, offered me help so I accepted him. Hernán, very
confused but grateful at the same time, exclaimed “THANK GOD!
But hasn't he told you anything else? ¨ Ricardo answered ¨Yes, he
offered me help with many things, one of them was taking me to
a shooting range! ¨ Ricardo told him happily, but his expression
changed when his brother, Hernán, told him: ¨I thank you very
much for what I did with our father, however, I don't trust that
guy.¨ Ricardo replied ¨How can you distrust him? from someone
who just helped our father when I couldn't contact you? Hernán
told him, "Try in every way to always talk to me in case of an
emergency, that whatever it may be, I will be there and I will
solve it, maybe he will help our father and as I told you, I thank
him, but don't trust so much, because face to face we see, hearts
we don't know." . Ricardo, feeling scolded, replied, "Don't worry,
I'm old enough to take care of myself and make my own
decisions."
After talking to his brother, he went to see how his father was
doing, spending time with his mother and his sister. After that he
went to sleep knowing that the next day would be harder than
the previous one.
The next day, he went to school, saying goodbye to all his friends,
although there weren't many, he was loved despite everything,
he also said goodbye to the girl he liked, Camila, she also liked
Ricardo, but she never told him. They said they were very afraid.
Ricardo informed them that he would leave his studies so that he
could do better at work, so that he could support and overcome
with his family "together."
Likewise, they all said goodbye, they swore to meet again one
day and to share again that beautiful friendship they had with
each other.
Ricardo, upon arriving from school, went to milk the cows in the
hope of meeting that mysterious man who turned out to be the
boss of that immense ranch where he worked. He waited hours
after hours, but José never appeared.
The days passed, Ricardo's father, Fernando, seemed to get
worse, as quickly as he could he contacted his brother and with
him they managed to raise a little money to take him back to the
hospital. However, 3 days after having his father When he was
admitted, the hospital forced him to continue paying or take him
out, regardless of his father's life, so Ricardo searched in every
way possible, contacting José, he asked the employees of the
property, and everyone who passed by, when the night of that
day, José arrived at the horse stable, where Ricardo was just at
that moment carving the horseshoe of one of them, then José
appeared, Ricardo, a little nervous, scared and angry, asked him
"Sir, I have been looking for you all this time." time and I have not
been able to find it¨ José replied ¨Yes, I already They said that you
asked about José, a fatal mistake, do not do that again, normally
I usually execute people who reveal my identity, but with you I
will make an exception, so that it does not happen again.
Ricardo, after having heard that threat, with fear and anger at
the same time asked him, "Who are you really, what are you
doing here?" José replied, “Come to the side of the cliff, where no
one can hear, and I will tell you.”
Ricardo was scared, but with curiosity he listened to him, they
went to the edge of the cliff and José began to talk, saying that
he was the most wanted drug trafficker in the entire country,
persecuted by the government, the United States government,
and criminal groups. rivals, that is why he did not appear daily
and maintained his anonymous identity.
Upon hearing José's intimidating but sincere response, Ricardo
decided to ask him, Why do you have this big ranch if you don't
need it? ¨ José replied ¨Although as you know, I don't need this
ranch, it serves as a way for me to hide the money I earn,
pretending that this ranch is very profitable, according to the
government it generates 75 million dollars a year, which is only 5
% of what I earn annually. ¨
Ricardo was impressed by the response, but more than anything
by the amount of money that José admitted to having, he told
him "It's very incredible, but I imagine it has risks."
José answered, “Yes, that's right, it has many risks. However, I
want to offer you to understand how this business works. Ricardo
responded with some fear. Thank you very much for your offer,
but I am not willing to get involved in criminal things. José trying
to intimidate him, but more than anything, convincing him, he
told him. Look Ricardo, in this country the opportunities are very
few, for example look at your brother, who barely managed to
graduate from the best university and he himself had to migrate
to the United States. ¨
Surprised, Ricardo said, "How do you know about my brother?" ¨
José replied ¨ Oh Ricardo, do you think I wouldn't investigate
someone before helping them? I know everything about you, I
know where you lived before I sent my boys to guard you, before I
gave you the money. ¨ Ricardo answered him with fear ¨ Eh, I
understand… it's part of your job, but please don't do anything
bad to me ¨ José told him ¨ Don't worry, just accept my offer, and
you will see how your life will change ¨ Ricardo answered him
okay I accept.
As time went by, Ricardo spent more and more busy in the field,
still not seeing help or beginning to follow orders in his new job.
One day, José arrived in 3 different trucks, with many bodyguards
and briefcases, he called Ricardo and told him He delivered 5
briefcases that were for him, the only condition is that he keep
them secretly without anyone knowing, not even his own family,
each briefcase contained 10,000 US dollars, Ricardo was
accompanied by an escort van that transported the briefcases,
they took advantage of The night, when his family was sleeping
so that the men would interrupt their home, entering the patio,
to secretly hide the bags, he was not allowed to hide it in the
ranch even if it was very big, because if he found something
suspicious In this same case, it would be closed and the money
laundering method of the great Drug Trafficker would be a
failure. ¨
The next day, Ricardo found that his father continued to get
worse. This time, he quickly unearthed a briefcase and took his
father to the hospital. Upon arriving at the hospital, he was
admitted again. The doctors confirmed to Ricardo that his father
did not care. There was a lot of time left, the leukemia had
reached such a fatal point that even with all the medicines in the
world could be reduced, they gave him two options, being
admitted to the hospital with surveillance that could give him a
few more days of life, or simply taking him home to spend his last
moments in the happy world. Ricardo decided to keep him in the
hospital in the meantime, telling the doctors to do everything
possible to help his father, not to worry about money.
The doctors, seeing this attitude, thought it was a lie simply to
save his father and that he had no money, so they asked the
young man, Where will you get the money? He replied, my
brother, he lives and works in the United States very hard every
day to pay his expenses, so don't worry about that. Ricardo had
lied to justify the money he had gotten. As the days went by,
Ricardo visited his father, until one day José called him from an
unknown disposable number and said, “Boy, I already gave you
an advance, now, I need You infiltrate as an assistant on a truck
that will carry the merchandise. Your mission is to alert the driver
of the police points and tell which ones have already been
purchased by José. ¨ Ricardo, afraid, but at the same time
knowing that if he didn't comply it could go very badly, he told his
family, I have to go away for a few days because of work, there
will be a livestock contest in another city and I hope I can win, the
parents They wished him luck and told him that they loved them
very much. After 4 days, after completing the mission successfully
and successfully delivering 18 Tons of cocaine in a two-axle truck,
at the end of the mission, Ricardo was with his family and since
he was so exhausted he went to sleep, when he woke up he
looked at his cell phone and he discovered that José had called
him, he quickly dialed him but he did not answer, so he waited for
him at the ranch, after the week, José appeared, scolded him and
told him: “In this business you always have to be alert 24/7 ¨I'm
sorry, I was very tired, it's my first mission, but it's okay. ¨ José
told him ¨I know, because of your delay, I saved the money that I
have rewarded for you, remember that I already gave you an
advance so I won't offer you more.¨ Ricardo told him ¨It's okay. ¨
José answered ¨Follow me and I I show where your money is.
Then Ricardo began to follow José, into some caves 35 kilometers
from the city, there was a large briefcase with wads of bills, in it
was 550,000 Dollars, Ricardo excitedly thanked José, but José
warned him that it would be the first of many missions in which
he would serve, Ricardo had nothing but another to accept.
With the money he got, Ricardo managed to buy a house in a
private area for 250,000 dollars, he hired 2 private expert doctors
and bought the necessary medicines and supplies for his father,
he changed his sister from public school to one of the most
prestigious, he paid the debt that his brother had with the
coyotes, he bought a luxurious pick-up for 70,000 dollars and
gave many gifts to his family, Ricardo made everyone believe that
he won the lottery, but his older brother Hernán did not believe
the story, which he had to admit what he did, but since Ricardo
had already turned 16, he asked him to respect his brother's
decision and not interfere, his brother Hernán advised him and
told him to stay away, but Ricardo told him He said, "It's too
late." ¨
When Ricardo turned 18, he had already managed to accumulate
a fortune of 20,000,000 dollars. He used the excuse that he
learned to invest money, so many years ago he had already
promoted his brother to create a company in the United States
and his family would take care of it. They generated a lot, but not
as much as the security company that Ricardo was supposed to
own with his partner, the owner of the ranch. It is assumed
because in reality this company was simply a money launderer for
its true income from Drug Trafficking. At the age of 18, Ricardo
had already achieved a higher role, he received special training
from an elite Delta force of the United States that had been
bribed with 7 million dollars, Ricardo aspired to become the
leader of the commando that same year due to his performance.
armed men who managed the routes, missions and much more,
he would have more than 7,500 men with high military capacity
under his command, but Ricardo aspired to one day become the
boss of bosses, one day José called Ricardo, José explained to him
that He was tasked with the most important mission in the
country of the United States, to introduce more than 25 Trucks
that could carry more than 31 Tons of drugs each. Each ton was
valued at 2,000,000, so in total the operation would be worth
1,500,000,000 dollars.
The operation began on October 31, called Operation Troy,
Ricardo had already located the border points that were
purchased to transport all the trucks, in total there were more
than 100 armed men camouflaged in the trucks to take care of
the merchandise.
At one point there was an infiltrator in the drug traffickers' team,
so a quick military raid arrived, more than 75 special forces
soldiers fighting against more than 100 highly trained hitmen, it
was a tough battle, where it seemed that the men would lose
their lives. hitmen, however Ricardo after eliminating 3 soldiers
and losing 5 lives of his soldiers, found a way to escape with a
bomb threat distraction, the operation took 3 months to be
successfully concluded, however an exhausted and tired Ricardo
arrived at his house, he saw a strange surprise, his brother from
the United States had arrived home, however when he discovered
the truth, every smile he had on his face was erased, his father
had died approximately 2 weeks ago, Ricardo with pain in his The
heart, on the verge of collapsing but without shedding a tear,
received a call from José, José gave him the 139 million dollars
that Ricardo was supposed to receive, Ricardo complained to
José: MONEY IS NOT WORTH EVERYTHING, I SACRIFICED MY LIFE
AND 3 VALUABLE TABLES OF MY FATHER'S LIFE FOR A FEW
MISERABLE MILLIONS? José responded, It's part of the job,
Ricardo, He swore revenge in the name of his father and
everyone that José threatened and managed to trick his head into
involving them in that life of wear and tear, that cruel and painful
life where all the wealth in the world , does not buy peace or
tranquility, nor mental health, much less physical health...
