Introduction
My name’s Benji Franklin! After inventing a best-selling computer app that helps people come up with creative and time-saving excuses, I became the world’s youngest and, well, only ZILLIONAIRE!
But I quickly discovered that life wasn’t all about the Benjamins. I’ve decided to use my newfound wealth for the greater good—like saving the world from cloned killer dinosaurs, building super-powered rocket ships, and launching a solid gold submarine. Or two!
Chapter 1
Three Billion Is Bonkers
Dad and I were out in the shop working on a robot he’d designed. It was a pretty cool idea, and he’d put a ton of time into it. As the robot moved, it created friction. The friction was used to create electricity, and the electricity was then used to continue powering the robot. You didn’t have to plug it in or use batteries. It just went on its own. He’d built it out of parts from an old computer, a metal garbage can, and a pair of Rollerblades.
I was so focused on the robot that I hardly noticed the sound of a helicopter landing in the field behind the shop. I might not have even noticed it at all if it weren’t for all the dust it kicked up. Dust swirled through the doorway like a sandstorm. I was glad I was wearing a welding mask.
Dad and I walked out of the shop without a word and looked at the copter coming to rest in the field. A year ago, I would have been shocked to see a helicopter landing on our property, but my life had become pretty exciting lately. I wasn’t really that surprised.
The blades slowed and three men got out. One wore a fancy business suit and the other two wore all black. They all had on black sunglasses and looked like they were in the Secret Service or something.
The two guys stayed close to the other guy as he walked toward Dad and me. It was like a scene out of an action movie, but if it were an action movie, he would have walked in slow motion.
The blades on the copter had completely stopped by the time he reached us.
I’m looking for Benji Franklin,
he said, taking off his glasses.
I had a feeling you’d say that,
my dad said, pulling off his welding mask.
I’m Benji Franklin,
I said, leaving mine on.
I can’t believe you’re really a kid,
he said. He was pretty short, much shorter than Dad. He had a long white beard that didn’t seem to match the fancy suit.
I had a feeling you’d say that too,
Dad said.
Is there somewhere we can talk that’s more private?
he asked.
I
