Chapter 0022 - The Godfather of Soy Sauce
"Okay, BOSS. Paul shrugged helplessly, who made him the boss!
As for what those hillbilly-like Mexicans will make, only God knows, and Paul just hopes they don't mess everything up.
"Take us to the casino. "He didn't want to go to the bar, he didn't have much interest in opera, and the popular opera was at night, and the only thing he could go to was the casino.
As for standing on the beach and blowing the wind, Li Zitao doesn't have that leisure and elegance, his time is very precious now, and it is better to practice boxing or shooting if he has that kung fu!
"Boss, these people are really rich. In the casino, watching a pile of American knives being slapped on the table, the monk licked his mouth and swallowed saliva, his eyes were almost red.
"Soon you'll be richer than they combined. Li Zitao said affirmatively.
took out 200 US dollars and let his subordinates play in it for a while, Li Zitao felt a little bored, playing cards were definitely his natural nemesis.
"Boss, your luck is really ......" Paul couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Playing cards are really bad, 21 points, the big wheel is king, mdzz~~" Li Zitao cursed in a low voice, saying words that people couldn't understand.
After losing all the 100 US dollars, Li Zitao stood up from the gambling table, and his subordinates who were playing around also gathered, some excited, some frustrated.
"How much did you win?" Seeing the monk's eyes shining, Li Zitao asked casually.
"50 US dollars, hey......" The monk smiled excitedly, the boss just said that the money that can be won is theirs.
"Boss, this is the capital. The monk took out 20 U.S. knives and handed them over.
"Keep it yourself. Thinking that he had lost all 100 US dollars, and the monk had won 50 US dollars with the principal of 20 US dollars, Li Zitao was even more disgusted with gambling in his heart.
"It's not right to gamble, it's better to gamble less in the future. Thinking of gambling, Li Zitao suddenly looked at Paul and asked, "Paul, where is Las Vegas?"
“...... BOSS, I don't know. Paul pouted a little awkwardly, Las Vegas?
"Yes, it's fine. Li Zitao suppressed the excitement in his heart, and some vague memories in his mind became clear.
If memory serves, Las Vegas' boom began in Luciano, before that it was nothing more than a wasteland where the minerals were running out and two gambling houses were about to go out of business.
Although I don't know the exact time, Luciano has not yet become the future godfather, and Paul has never heard the name of Las Vegas, which is enough to prove that it is not now.
"Opportunity. Li Zitao immediately seized the business opportunity inside, and at the same time drew a circle of the name Las Vegas in his heart, red, which must be marked emphatically.
Now all he needs to do is wait, wait for Black Tuesday to come, wait for the market to collapse, Ben from the stock market to bring him a lot of money.
As for the rest, he can only quietly press it in his heart now, silently telling himself, 'It's soon, a happy life is coming.' ’
Waiting is a very anxious thing, especially when knowing the future, fortunately, Li Zitao's salted fish attribute is still there, turning over and continuing to lie down.
Before the evening reception began, Li Zitao met an interesting person.
"Sir, Mr. Maranzano would like to invite you for a cup of coffee. The man in the top hat and slim-fitting suit over the dark gray coat bowed down.
"It's an honor. "Looking towards the café next to it, a 'gentleman' sitting there raised his coffee glass and smiled kindly.
"Lee, from the mysterious land of the East, please be seated. Looking at Lee, who was slowly approaching with a warm smile on his face, Maranzano stood up as a courtesy.
"It's an honor to meet you, Maranosa. Li Zitao took off his top hat after sitting down, and the monk took it quietly and quietly sat back in the position behind him.
"You have a group of loyal subordinates, loyal, belonging to the inheritance of the Chinese Kingdom?" Maranzano seemed to be very interested in him, and his eyes were shining directly at him.
"Loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith. Li Zitao said word by word in Chinese, and then raised his hand and smiled at the approaching waiter: "A glass of milk." ”
He is not interested in coffee and wine, and the evening drinking party definitely needs to be pretentious, I remember seeing it on the Internet in my previous life, and ordering milk before drinking will protect the intestines.
"What did you hear about Luciano last time Nuki mentioned you?"
"Yes. Picking up the milk cup on the table, Li Zitao looked down at the milk in the cup and said softly: "A friend of mine happened to see that the killer who shot Marceria had crossed paths with Luciano. ”
"Bichi, sure enough, he did it. Maranzano clenched his fists and slammed them on the table.
"Isn't this a well-known thing? What does the New York Times say? Oh, he pees for a long time every time, hehe......" Watching Maranzano's performance with a sneer, Li Zitao really wanted to splash milk on his face.
To say that Marcelia's death has nothing to do with him, Li Zitao doesn't believe it when he is killed, these bastards really like acting.
Maranzano was so angry now only because Luciano was gradually out of his control, and he was a little too overestimating himself, and now he was angry.
"Hey, my friend, thank you so much for your advice, it's almost time, I think Nuki should be in a hurry. Maranzano looked at the time and invited him to leave with him.
Malanzano didn't come alone, he was followed by more than a dozen subordinates, all of whom were broad-shouldered and round-waisted, much more pomp than Li Zitao's pomp.
Pouting disapprerovingly, Li Zitao dared to guarantee that if he really moved, the monk alone would be able to make them all lie down.
The reception was held in the hotel's ballroom, and by the time Maranzano and Li Zitao arrived, many guests had already gathered in circles to talk about politics, territory, women and money.
"Hey, Maranzano, my friend, come here. The forehead is high, the bridge of the nose is high, and he is a little thin, and the whole person gives people a sinister feeling of the young man waving excitedly.
Of course, the excitement was fake, and the guy on the other side couldn't wait to kill Maranzano immediately, because Li Zitao saw obvious killing intent from Maranzano's eyes.
"Charlie, I'm going to introduce you to a friend. Hearing Maranzano's name, Li Zitao knew that his guess was correct.
Heading towards him is Charlie Luciano, who will rule the mafia of country M for 40 years.
"This is a friend from the East, Charlie Lee...... This is my best friend, Charlie Luciano, oh my! look, two Charlies. Maranzano shouted exaggeratedly around with a teasing smile on his face.
"Haha, it looks like we're very close, Lee. Charlie Luciano squeezed out a smile and looked like a weasel greeting chickens.
"I think so, Mr. Luciano. Li Zitao lowered his posture and said.
He doesn't want to mess with this big guy now, let him and Maranzano, the old Bichi, go to kill each other, it's better if they both lose and the mafia falls apart.
"Oh, damn it, Lee, I've finally found you. Nuki looked at him with exaggerated arms and complaining, "Come on, I'm going to introduce you to some new friends." ”
"Nuki. Maranzano and Charlie Luciano greeted each other with a smile.
"Maranzano, take care of Charlie, Charlie, I'll come back later. Nuki spread his hands and made a speechless expression, pointing at Li Zitao, as if to say, 'What a trouble!'
Charlie Luciano's eyes flickered, and Li Zitao also took the opportunity to follow Nuki through the cocktail party, thinking that he was going to introduce someone to him, but he didn't expect the two to go directly to the second floor.
"Nuki, what is this?" Looking at the three people sitting in the quiet cigar bar, Li Zitao was a little confused.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I would like to introduce a new friend, Lee from the East, Charlie Lee. After Nuki finished speaking, he took the lead in clapping, and the three people sitting on the sofa also stood up with a smile.
"Thank you, thank you Nuki for the introduction. Li Zitao put his right hand lightly on his chest and bent down slightly to express humility and gratitude.
"Come on, Li, taste it, these are Nuki's treasures, each one costs 200 US dollars, and it is stained with the fragrance of a pure girl, haha......"
One of them was pot-bellied, a bit like a councillor's fat man, holding up his cigar and laughing uncontrollably as if no one was around.
"Walter Gaed, our great Mr. Governor of New Jersey. Nuki smiled and introduced with a straight face.
"Come on, Nuki, don't be so formal, let's sit down and enjoy!" said Walter Guy as he swung his cigar back into his seat.
"This is the Rep. Sakhir Ricks, and this is the senior Senator, Nick Brandy, both of whom are Atlantic City's most loyal friends. ”
Senior senator, which is an informal term, simply means seniority, and in the Senate, more power is always given to members with a 'senior' legislature.
After shaking hands with the three of them, Li Zitao sat in the position arranged for him and looked at Nuki, "Please start your performance." ’
"Well, our Senator needs some men to keep him safe, and he wants bodyguards with a special complexion. Nuki glanced at Nick Brandy and said to Li Zitao sincerely.
"Our senator, do you want to start with the color of your skin?" Li Zitao picked up a cigar, put it in front of his nose and sniffed it, but he didn't even smell the fart.
It's just a strong smell of tobacco, a smell? Sorry, I might have a stuffy nose.
"It seems that our new friend is very politically savvy. Nick Brandi looked around, a satisfied smile on his face.
"No problem, two Chinese, two black, I promise they're clean. Li Zitao pinched the burning oak chips, held the cigar and rotated it evenly, until the cigar tip ignited a uniform circle of sparks, and then he threw away the wood chips and shook the cigar lightly.
Wait until the smoke penetrates the whole cigar, then put it to his mouth and gently inhale, elegant and noble demeanor, so that everyone is a little together, even Nuki looks at him in surprise.
If it weren't for Li Zitao's standard Asian skin color and physiognomy characteristics, they would even think that they were communicating with a noble European nobleman.
