"Hi, Fredo." When he arrived at the door, a man in his thirties, tall and thin, with a flat head, greeted Shen Long, yes, he was dressed as Fredo, the cowardly child of the Corleone family; He was greeted by Tom Hagen, the adopted son of the old godfather, who was adopted by the old godfather at the age of eleven or twelve and grew up with the children of the Corleone family.

Tom Hagen has great respect for the old godfather, and once heard the old godfather say that "a lawyer with a briefcase can squeeze more money than a hundred robbers with guns", he took this sentence to heart, studied hard and was admitted to university to study law, and after graduation, he entered the law firm of the cooperative institution under the arrangement of the old godfather to accumulate experience, and is now an experienced lawyer.

Tom Hagen also lives in this large yard and has a separate house, which of course was also given by the old godfather; There are a total of eight houses in this courtyard, each inhabited by the Corleone family, Tom Hagen, and the core of the family, and once it enters a wartime state, it can quickly become an easily defended fortress.

"Hey, Tom, who's that guy over there? How come I haven't seen it before? Shen Long pointed to the man in a black suit who was about fifty or sixty years old not far away and asked.

"The owner of the funeral parlor, Bao Nasera, has a good relationship with his wife and wife, but he has always regarded himself as a decent person, and he does not want to have too much to do with the godfather, and he has not come to visit the godfather before, but unfortunately he has recently suffered a misfortune, his daughter was beaten by two little hooligans, and the United States and American law that he trusts do not give these two little hooligans the punishment they deserve, he came to seek the help of the godfather." Tom Hagen said.

Since the old military advisor Jaanko Abandandu became seriously ill, Tom Hagen began to serve as the acting military advisor, this position is very important within the gang, some like the white paper fan in the Xiangjiang gang, deeply trusted by the godfather, can influence the godfather's decision-making, intervene in various transactional work, and is the center of various information of the gang.

Tom Hagen is very capable of working, but unfortunately he is of Irish-German descent, and it is difficult to gain the trust of others in the conservative and xenophobic Sicilian gang, and his personality is not decisive and cruel enough, if it is okay in peacetime, when it comes to war with other families, he is a little unable to cope.

"He's picked a good time." Shen Long shrugged, according to Sicilian tradition, on the day of his daughter's wedding, the father could not refuse the guest's request, "I'll go in and listen." ”

"Okay." Tom Hagen has no objection that Fredo is a core member of the family and has the power to be involved in these little things.

Shen Long took Bao Nasera into the godfather's room, the godfather was sitting on a chair with his head down and teasing the kitten, seeing him like this, who would have thought that this person in front of him would be the overlord of the underworld in New York?

However, in the following conversation, the old godfather's heroic nature is fully revealed, Baunasera obviously does not know the godfather, he wants to use money to bribe the godfather to help him take revenge, but the godfather starts with the friendship between his wife and his wife, and then accuses Bonasella of asking him to kill at his daughter's wedding, and finally talks about friendship.

These words made Baunasera speechless, obediently bowed his head and kissed the godfather's ring, calling him the godfather, the old godfather became affectionate, and put his arm around Baunasella's shoulder, "I will help you get justice, in the future, I may ask you to do something trivial, maybe that day will never come, before that, please take this matter as a gift from my wife, after all, she is your daughter's godmother." ”

Bao Nasera left gratefully, Shen Long still stayed in the room to ponder the meaning of this conversation, Bao Nasera only wanted to pay a little money at first, but for the godfather, money was nothing at all, he preferred Bao Nasera to owe him a favor, maybe this favor will play a big role in the future.

"Tom, give this task to Klaymansha and let him use reliable people." This reliability does not mean that the strict mouth will not reveal the facts of the crime, but that the two little hooligans will not be killed; And Kleimansha is the corps commander of the Corleone family, and he has a considerable amount of strength in his hands, which is equivalent to the speaker of a certain area under the big guy in Hong Kong films.

When Baunasera leaves, the bakery owner Nazolin comes in, he also comes to ask for the help of the godfather, his daughter falls in love with Enzo, the helper of the shop, but Enzo was captured by the American army from Sicily, and now that the war is over, Enzo will be repatriated soon, and he has no way to let Enzo stay.

This problem was easily solved by the godfather, who issued a decree through the congressmen so that Enzo could stay in the United States and marry Nazolin's daughter, and Nazolin was also grateful to leave.

Next is the godfather's most effective thug, Luca Blasi, almost equivalent to the double flower red stick in Hong Kong films, he was fished out of prison by the old godfather, loyal to the old godfather, and once performed many miracles in the war between the Corleone family and the Al-Capone and Marzanzano families.

He didn't expect the old godfather to send him an invitation, after all, he was just a thug, and he thought about it for several days, not only gave the most generous gift money, but also took a lot of effort to memorize a long paragraph of polite compliments, which was much more difficult for him than to kill the six good men of the Marnzano family.

"Thank you, Luca, my favorite friend!" The godfather was very serious throughout the whole process, and after Luca finished speaking, he accepted the gift bag full of cash, and held Luca's hand vigorously, his eyes were extremely sincere; After Luka left, the godfather relaxed and handed the gift money to Tom Hagen.

Shen Long pondered the difference between the godfather in dealing with these people, and treated Bao Nasera with grace, so that Bao Nasera, who was only going to pay a sum of money, willingly owed himself a favor.

Treating Nazolin shows his network resources, and this decree can also attract more fresh blood for the gang, the beneficiary of this decree will never be Enzo alone, and it can even be guessed that the godfather originally had a similar plan, even if Nazolin didn't come, he would do it, which is equivalent to getting a favor for nothing.

And for the beast-like Luca Blasi, the godfather has always taken it seriously, so that Luca is deeply moved by the godfather's attention to him, and afraid because of the godfather's seriousness, this is the method of boiling eagle dogs, for a beast like Luca, it is not enough to respect him, but also to make him jealous of himself.

is worthy of being the underworld overlord of New York, and after just a few conversations, Shen Long felt his heroic posture.

"Fredo, Tom, we've been in the house for too long, let's go out and take a look!" The godfather got up and walked to the door.
