When he got up in the morning, Arthur finished breakfast and was about to send Gina to school, but Gina said that he didn't need to send it today.

"I don't go to school, today is a visit day, a museum in the morning, and a public library in the afternoon."

Gina said in a cheerful tone as she ate Arthur's fried eggs. There are quite a lot of extracurricular activities in American high schools, sports competitions, volunteering, and various visits, and today is their visit day. Arthur thought it would be okay if I didn't have to be late for work.

"You come and pick me up in the afternoon, how about we meet at the public library?" My friend wants to meet you. ”

Before leaving the house, Gina suggests that Arthur meet at the public library. The tour would end at about three o'clock, and several of Gina's friends knew that she had a handsome boyfriend who looked like Keanu Reeves and wanted to meet her. Although Gina was a little worried that Arthur would be targeted by those guys, the girl's vanity still made her agree, which little girl has a handsome boyfriend and doesn't want to show off to her girlfriends.

Arthur agreed, and Gina happily kissed Arthur on the cheek, and went out to take the subway to the museum in Brooklyn to attend the event.

After breakfast, Arthur was in front of the closet to pick out the clothes he was wearing for the day, but found that none of them were decent. There are already eight cards in his hand, but there are not eight American knives in his wallet, and he is poor for one. Arthur not only has to support himself, but also takes care of Gina's diet and daily life, as well as the gas money for the motorcycle. The little girl is already very frugal in her life, and she always wears not many clothes and no cosmetics.

During the time he came to the United States, Arthur shot and killed people, and became the godfather of several people, but his mother just didn't get any money for himself.

It's a bit of a failure to think about.

But Arthur also knew that money was not his goal, his goal was to make himself the least liking money.

Arthur picked out a denim jacket that had been torn with a few holes, which was a little small on his body, and looked in the mirror, still quite handsome. Sure enough, whether a man is handsome or not is mainly based on his face, not his clothes. looks like Keanu Reeves, and he will feel handsome in a rag. You have to look like Zhao Si, and everything you wear looks like a two-person jumper.

Out of the door, Arthur meets the neighbor's fat uncle Cecy in the hallway. Ceci saw Arthur wearing a denim jacket with holes, and a sarcastic smile appeared on his shiny face, and said, "Oh poor Arthur, would you like to pick up a few clothes from me for you to wear?" Anyway, I haven't sold it before, so if you want it, you can go to me and get it. ”

Uncle Ceci works in Little Italy as a stall selling clothes, hats, accessories and other small goods. Don't think that Americans don't have roadside stalls, roadside stalls are everywhere in Little Italy, with food, use, play, everything.

On the night Arthur crossed over, it was Uncle Ceci who yelled at him when he came home. Sisi has always looked at Arthur unpleasantly because he has a daughter who has just started middle school. When Cecy saw Arthur leading a high school girl to live together, he couldn't help but think of his baby daughter, and always felt that Arthur might do something to his daughter as a neighbor, so Cecy hated him inexplicably.

In the face of Sisi's rudeness, Arthur snorted coldly, "As for the counterfeit and shoddy goods on your stall, I don't want to give them to me, made in Italy...... When there will be Chinese production, I will consider going to you to get a few pieces. Oh yes, I think, Uncle Secy you should worry more about your daughter's studies than about my clothes, right? ”

Hearing Arthur mention his daughter, Cecy immediately became angry, blocked Arthur in the corridor, pointed at his nose and said, "I warn you little thing, don't hit my daughter's idea!" You're already living with a high school student, and if I were that girl's parent I'd come to the door and shove a shotgun in your mouth to keep you away from my daughter! ”

Arthur's reputation in this film is indeed not very good, because his girlfriend has changed too much. After the death of his mother Chen Wenjing, he often brought his girlfriends of different ages and colors home. Sisi is of Italian descent, Italians value family and female chastity, and in Secy's eyes, Arthur is an obscene embryo, and his precious daughter must not be targeted by such an obscene embryo.

In the last few days, there have been strange noises at Arthur's house next door, and there is a wall between Ceci's daughter's room and Arthur's room, and the little girl has not been able to sleep well for several nights in a row. Ceci looked at her daughter's somewhat haggard face, and although she refused to say what was happening, Secy was sure that it had something to do with Arthur next door.

Arthur doesn't blame Uncle Ceci for protecting his calves, but Arthur doesn't want to bear the trumped-up charges, let alone being told to put a gun in his mouth. Arthur's face sank, and his eyes were fixed on Uncle Secy, who was standing in his way. Cecy looked into Arthur's eyes and found that the frivolous Arthur of the past was gone, and had become gloomy and terrifying, giving goosebumps on the back of his neck.

"Get out of the way, I'm going to work." Arthur said with a cold face, his voice very soft.

As if receiving a voice command, Ceci obediently moved away and let Arthur go downstairs. When Arthur left, Ceci swallowed his saliva, and then he remembered that Arthur's father had been the leader of the mafia, but he was only depressed after his death. And who the mafia is, as an elderly Italian, Sisi does not know.

"Nothing remarkable, nothing remarkable... It's all old things, old things..."

While comforting herself, Ceci also went downstairs to the street where she worked to set up a stall to sell clothes and hats.

……

Arthur walked to Luciano's restaurant, and when he entered the door, there was a "jingle", and Schmidt looked up and saw Arthur, with a look of surprise on his face, and said, "Oh Arthur, it's amazing that I'm not late today." The store was busy yesterday, how are you doing? Nothing went wrong? ”

Schmidt had a smile on his face, but there was something weird in his words, Arthur didn't care about him, took off his coat, and said, "There is no mistake." I'm going to work well today. I'm not late today, can you give me some bonuses, don't be late rewards. ”

Schmidt still smiled and said, "Dear Arthur, it is already an extrajudicial favor for you to be late and ask for leave without deducting your money, and you will be rewarded for not being late...... Hehe, we'll talk about that later. Quick, go to the back kitchen and unload today's meat steaks, the car should be almost here, this batch of good meat steaks is very important..."

After going to the locker room to change clothes, Arthur began his day's work.

Every other week, the butcher shop delivers frozen steaks to the restaurant to make a variety of steaks. Arthur needs to wear labor protection gloves to the cold storage truck to carry the steak down and send it to the freezer, which is a hard job. Next to the freezer, there is also a cutter dedicated to cutting meat, and a large side of the cutlets needs to be cut into small slices for cooking using this linear cutter with a sharp jigsaw.

This work was also done by Arthur.

All morning, he was busy carrying and cutting the steaks. He had to be very careful, the blades on the cutter were extremely sharp, and the hard bones could be easily cut, let alone human hands. If you accidentally rub your hand, your hand will still be cut, even though there are sensors on the machine that force the blade to lock. In the past, the assistant chef in the store had his hand cut and damaged his nerves, resulting in his fingers being half disabled.

At noon, when he was at his busiest, Arthur began to help Carson with the tasks of plating, washing, and chopping vegetables. Luciano's restaurant sells the most pasta, and the most common toppings in pasta are onions and minced meat, so Arthur has to keep chopping onions and minced meat, and the whole kitchen is busy.

Arthur's onion and steak smell of flesh and blood, and his white chef's uniform was stained with red and yellow stains. This kind of work is boring, but it makes people feel very fulfilling, and you don't need to use your brain, and you can do it. At this time, several people lifted the plastic curtain and entered the kitchen, and Arthur turned his head to see that it was Russell, Montolo, and a big fat man.

The whole kitchen stopped, looking at the three men, everyone knew that they belonged to the Luciano family, the real owners behind the shop. Montolo was at the forefront, and he was now the new boss of the Luciano family. He shouted to everyone, "Hey! Hey! Don't stop, don't stop, the shop is busy! All work, work! ”

The group continued their work, only Arthur stopped, knowing that Montolo had come to see him. The family's affairs should be almost settled, and he has to come to the store to have a "work report" with Arthur. Of course, the people under him must not know that their new boss is actually a real boss who works as a cook at Luciano's restaurant.

Montolo stepped forward and did not hug Arthur, which would expose Arthur's relationship with the gang. Montolo just stepped forward and said softly, "I'm sorry Godfather, I can't salute you here, there are too many idle people." ”

Arthur nodded slightly, thinking to himself who rarely wants you to salute, if you have something to say, Lao Tzu is busy. Arthur pointed out the back door, and the four of them walked through the stove and sink into the alley outside the kitchen. Flies and rats scurried around the big green garbage can, and a stench came to my nose. As fragrant as the food in the front hall is, the smell of the gutter at the back door stinks.

Montolo and Arthur went to the base of the wall alone and briefly told Arthur about the gang. There was a brief period of chaos in the gang after the disappearance of Tony and Casey, but with Russell's support, Montolo quickly took control. Tony's three major corners, Montolo, Silves and Dio, among which the big fat Dior and Montolo are all the way, and they are the ones who came with them today.

And Sylves is loyal to Tony, saying that he must find out the truth about Tony's disappearance. However, at the insistence of the crowd, it was agreed that Montolo would act as the family's agent and deal with various matters after Tony's disappearance. He proposes that the real party leader can only be decided after Tony's life and death are determined.

Yesterday, Montolo went to the Staten Island district in southwest Jersey to meet with the president of the New York Gang Federation, and obtained his approval to represent the Luciano family. This chairman is none other than the head of the Gandolfer family, Jackie Gandolfel.

"Didn't Jackie embarrass you?" Arthur is now very concerned about the leader of the Gandol family, and he can detect that this is the big black hand who is hiding behind the scenes, manipulating many events. There must be many implications in him, and exposing him or even bringing him down would be an important step on Arthur's path forward.

Montolo shook his head and said, "No, Jackie agreed very happily, and said that the other families would also support it." ”

Arthur lit a cigarette, took a puff, thought for a moment, and said, "Be careful of Sylvis, he may have contact with the Gandolfil family." ”

Montolo nodded, and Arthur noticed that Dio, the big fat man standing not far away, was constantly looking over this way, and he was quietly looking at himself. The two looked at each other, and Dior's gaze immediately retracted. I have a little impression of this fat Arthur, who was Tony's driver earlier, and later rose to the head of the family, in charge of unions, construction, transportation, etc.

Arthur took a puff of his cigarette and asked, "Is Dior reliable?" ”

Montolo said: "Reliable, he is my brother-in-law, we are family." ”

Montolo's wife and Dior's wife are sisters, and there is no more trustworthy and reliable relationship in the gang than the family in-laws.

Of course, Arthur doesn't trust blood ties, after all, his uncle killed his own father, and he killed his own uncle.

Now Arthur only trusts people who have "links" to him.

"Do you have any other instructions?" Seeing that Arthur did not speak, Montolo took the initiative to ask.

"Yes." Arthur flicked the ashes of his cigarette and continued, "Can you get me two nice clothes, and do you have a TV?" I don't have a good TV at home. ”
