Chapter 180: The Godfather

Chapter 180 The Godfather has been for twenty years, Yin Hang has created an unbreakable empire from scratch, and he is the king of this empire. He was delighted by the growth of the Eastwood family, who was sitting in the mansion of San Bernardino in a handmade black gown with a tie.

This is a large mansion built by an architectural company controlled by Da Dengsheng on the edge of the city of San Bernardino; It has been twenty years now, and the economic development of San Bernardino at this time is no less than that of Sacramento, where the state political axe is located, and the latter can even be compared to New York!

The current governor of California is called Joseph, but he still obeys the Eastwood family, because the family's godfather, Don #Eastwood, values political resources. So much so that the big boss Ilsa in Nevada, Tony the big boss in Oregon, Dale the big boss in Georgia, and Kyle #Denson in New York and so on. They are learning from their godfathers, and once they go to a city, they always use a lot of cash in exchange for the friendship of local politicians, and Don #Eastwood often jokes: "Thankfully, we still have some profits!" ”。

The members of the Eastwood family continued to grow, namely Alfred, Fixio and Hammer, and Mona brought him a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses, which made Yin Hang love and feel distressed, because Mona was thirty-two years old at the time, but fortunately, the mother and son were safe. "This is an amazing woman!" Don said of his wife. The two little ones are also in their teens now, and they often pestering their mothers.

Gambling is now illegal in the United States except for Nevada, with the exception of lotteries, of course. The Grand Hotel in San Bernardino has transitioned from a casino to a real hotel. However, thanks to favorable publicity and a large injection of funds, it has been continuously renovated. With its own seven outbuildings, business is good! San Bernardino, the main one, has been built into a motor city by the Eastwood family, and the tax revenue provided by this business alone is in the top 10 in the country.

Of course, the best and luckiest thing to do is Kyle, when the Statue of Liberty was inaugurated in New York, the President of the United States even met with him as an investor, which was a gift from artists and entrepreneurs to the United States!

Although gambling is not allowed outside of Nevada, this does not shake the interests of the Eastwood family. In Berkeley, in New York, in San Bernardino,...... and so on, because of the compensation of the political axe, all received a high amount of compensation. They can also get a piece of land in Nevada for free, which is as large as before, and of course, you can buy it if you want to pay for it.

Ilsa had already taken over the whole of Las Vegas, and those guys who came here and wanted to open a gambling hotel had to give him a certain rent, but Ilsa just asked them to take a share of the five percent bonus, and also helped them attract some gamblers, which made the businessmen who opened the hotel grateful. You know, the Grand Mansion Hotel originally had the hope of being a monopoly.

As it turned out, Ilsa's strategy was right, people can't always be alone, and eating alone is not a good habit. That would lead to a crowd attack. Tang often said: "Don't do things that outweigh the losses, that will get you into deep trouble!" ”

In fact, the owners of these hotels will also be protected by the family, which is really a win-win situation, as long as everyone is not a fool, everyone knows how to choose. Take those gamblers who love to play tricks, arrears are just commonplace, but there are some people, their purpose is not pure, they just don't plan to pay back, and the collection company introduced by Huaxia to other hotel owners can always let them recover the money they thought they would not return. This made the owners of other hotels very happy.

Industrial, Don doesn't like to play the numbers game, he thinks that the bigger the numbers, the more dangerous they are, and once they fail, they will get nothing. Therefore, he attaches great importance to industry, from shipbuilding companies, steel mills, automobile factories, to small handicraft gadgets, he will turn the numbers in his hands into industry. Of course, it is still necessary to have some funds in hand.

Because Citibank is relying on a large and abundant capital, it has become the first super-large bank in the United States, with branches in all states, cities and counties, this move was terminated by the anti-monopoly law introduced by the political axe three years ago, but Yin Hang felt that there was nothing, he used the connections in the political axe, played a trick, and directly sold the shares of Citibank to the political axe 20%, but the Eastwood family still holds 60% of the dry shares of Citibank. And the Wilges family, which controls the remaining twenty percent, has been subordinate to the Eastwood family for many years.

However, Citibank's idea of opening all over the United States has been realized for a long time, and it is enough to make Citigroup's funds reach a frightening number, but numbers are numbers, and they are never as real as a piece of cake. So the Eastwood family used that huge number to build skyscrapers, lay railroads, build shipyards, casinos, and so on.

Today, of course, is a special day, of course, for the Eastwood family, because today, Don's grandson Oliver was born for a month, and he is so brave that he almost never cries, which makes Don #Clint #Eastwood feel very happy. Before the many dignitaries arrived, Don and his four sons stayed at the back of the mansion, in a garden with lattice trellises, and sat around a white wrought-iron table. The eldest son, Alfred, was tall, with a tough mustache that made him look very resolute, and a slender figure like an English gentleman, wearing a well-fitting dress. He was twenty-seven years old, with a fierce heart and a gloomy face, and he looked very perverse. Don told him that he Alfred was going to apply to attend a Washington business school and learn all the tricks of getting money legally. After that, he will go to Wall Street in New York to study with his Uncle Kyle for a few years, and after Kyle retires, he will take over his class.

Alfred did not dispute his father. This is a decree that is non-negotiable. He nodded in obedience.

Don then gave Sam instructions. Don loves Sam like a brother, and his youngest son was engaged to Sam's daughter three months ago. In addition to blood ties, Sam was also a great contributor to the defeat of the major mafia families.

"You're going to be based in Los Angeles!" Don said, "You're going to take care of our property rights in Hollywood. Now that the family is going to withdraw from the operation, there is not much to do here. However, you are still the hammer of the family. ”

Don saw that Sam was a little unhappy and had to persuade him. "Your wife can't live in a family atmosphere, she can't live in San Bernardino. She's too different to be accepted. You have to leave us and build your life. "That's true, but Don has another reason. Sam is the hero of the Eastwood family, and if he were to remain the warrior commander of San Bernardino, he would be more powerful than Don's sons. Of course, this is just in case, after all, his youngest son will soon become his son-in-law, but more importantly, Don can't bear it - Sam is also like himself, he is a person who wants grandchildren, and he should not continue to take risks.

"You're going to be my boss in Los Angeles!" Don said, "Although you have made a fortune, you will live a happier life in the future." Still, there's your important stuff to do. Because relinquishing power is also a danger in itself. ”

Sam knew that Don had a point, and nodded in acceptance.

Subsequently, Don turned to his second son, twenty-five-year-old Fixio. He was the shortest of the brothers, but he looked like a stone gate. He is a man of few words and a soft heart, and has learned to cook a variety of traditional dishes since he was a child. When his grandfather Donovan died, he cried the saddest. Don often said, "Fixio shouldn't do this!" ”

Tang Dynasty he smiled. "I'm going to decide your fate," he paused, then said, "Sending you on the journey of life." You're going to open the best restaurant in the country. Don't worry about money. I'm going to show you a hand to the French and show them what a real delicacy is. Sam and his sons laughed, even Fixio himself.

Tang Chong smiled at him and said, "You're going to study at the best cooking school in Europe for a year." ”

Fixio was pleased, but exclaimed angrily, "What can those people teach me?" ”

Tang Zhengse glared at him. "You can make caviar better!" However, the main thing is for you to learn the financial management of running this kind of business. Maybe one day, you'll have a chain of restaurants. Alfred will give you the funds. ”

Don took a bite of cheese, wiped his mouth with a handkerchief, and continued: "After that, you are going to intern at Thornton for a year, and that guy has diabetes and is already shouting that he is going to retire!" ”

After saying this, the crowd laughed again.

Don finally turned to Hammer. Hammer was the third in line, the most active of his sons. His surname was Qingheyue, and although he was twenty-four years old, he was still like a child, but Tang knew that he was inherited from his mother.

"Hammer" Don said, "Since Sam is going to Los Angeles, you're going to be in charge of San Bernardino and Rock Town." You are to provide all the soldiers for your family. However, I also brought you a construction company business, a big business. You're going to fix the country's skyscrapers, build police barracks in your state, and pave city streets. This business is indeed certain, and your Uncle Dengsheng has already paved the way for you. Your warriors will find a legitimate job, and you will make a fortune. You'll have to be apprenticed to Dengsheng for a while. Keep in mind, though, that your main mission is to provide soldiers to your clan and command them. With that, Don turned to Alfred again.
