Long Beach, Corleone Estate.

Two people slowly walked out from under a luxury car, one was tall and strong, as strong as a bull, his eyes were cold, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was more ugly than crying, which made people feel shocked when they saw it.

Just such a person who even the godfather had to be intimidated by majestic means, the Eastern Grim Reaper, who had killed countless gangsters by himself, slowly opened the shiny car door and walked out of it a young man.

Some of the old servants of the Corleone family knew who the young man was, he was William Corleone, the youngest son of the godfather, who had just returned from Sicily.

Some people were curious, and while cleaning the garden olives, the fallen leaves and white flowers under the orange trees, they couldn't help but look at the young man, his face was as handsome as ever, but his expression was a little colder, his figure was long, his clothes were meticulously elegant, and even the cuffs were ironed properly, and the experienced maid must have known that this was the handiwork of a woman with rich life experience.

He must have been loved by women, and the charm and temperament unique to this mature man can't be hidden, but everyone knows where the daunting coldness on his body comes from.

The servant looked secretly, and there was a group of people standing at the door of Corleone's villa, all of whom were William's immediate family, and the military advisor Tom Hagen was also among them, and he was the first to walk quickly towards William.

"I'm sorry!"

Chen Jun looked at Heigen and lowered his head slightly, patted him on the shoulder, and said quietly, "You know that what I want is not this. ”

"I...."

"Don't feel guilty, he's that kind of person, one day he will be ignited, and I understand that the family's affairs are busy."

"Thank you." Heigen was silent, "The old man is waiting for you in the office above." ”

"Hold your time, I want to meet Sonny."

Hagen didn't stop him, "Wait a minute, you come with me." ”

Chen Jun nodded, and then hugged and met with relatives in the family, such as his sister Connie and second brother Fred.

"I heard you brought back a woman?" Fred twitched his eyebrows and patted him on the chest.

"She's a widow, how can our family let her in, you can play with her as a mistress." The corners of Connie's mouth went up, and her tone was frivolous.

Chen Jun just smiled and didn't say anything, and then was taken by Hakine to another building in the manor, where he saw Sonny lying on the hospital bed.

"His condition is not optimistic, and although the doctors say that he will gradually recover after a long period of recuperation, he still shows no signs of waking up, but is only able to respond consciously to external voices," Hagen said. ”

"Hmm."

He replied habitually speechlessly, sat on the edge of Sonny's bed, arranged the quilt for him or adjusted the position of the respirator, and after a long time, the room suddenly became quiet, "Forgiveness is God's business, and my task is to send them to God, I promise!" ”

The subtle voice fell like thunder, and Kurogen trembled violently for a moment, but immediately stabilized, "Let's go, the old man should be in a hurry." ”

It was still the old mahogany office with some mottled traces of history, Chen Jun pushed the door in, and the godfather Vito Corleone sat on the sofa chair, the thick desk in front of him for documents and the chair next to him were empty.

"Have you seen your family and Sonny?"

"I've seen them all."

"Don't rush revenge, even if it's something you have to do firmly. Never hate your enemies, it will affect your judgment. ”

The godfather touched his head, his pale face was a little tired: "Try not to threaten, because the best threat is not to take action, once action is taken and no effect is received, people are no longer afraid of threats." ”

"I know all of that." Chen Jun said silently.

"I know you understand that you are different from Sonny, he doesn't listen to this...", the godfather exhaled softly, "please don't blame me for being verbose, you can interpret this as an old man's chatter, I always like to tell you these things." ”

"Your reasoning is very useful, and it has helped me a lot in Sicily."

"I heard about my former friend Croce. Carlo chose to betray my friendship, can you tell me more about it? ”

Chen Jun nodded lightly and told the details one by one.

"Life is beautiful, and it's a shame."

"I believe in friendship and would like to be the first to show others my friendship, which I firmly believe can build a solid line of defense. Croce is the one who believes in my philosophy, but the fate of man is changeable, and the Sicilian has to worry about his descendants when he is old. ”

"William."

"I hope you can learn from this that friendship is a must, and no one can face everything alone, but never impose friendship on people who don't need friendship - think you are insignificant, especially when you face those at the top later."

The godfather told many of his ethical philosophies at once, and one of them revealed the names of the real powerful people.

Like an old-fashioned little old man, he picked up the witch's brass flask next to him from time to time, poured a glass of amber wine, and did not drink much, but only moistened his throat.

In the dark and dim room, the curtains only shimmered, Chen Jun listened quietly, and the inculcation of ideas had begun.

"Are you ready?" The godfather gestured to the empty seat in front of him, "Sit on it and try it?" ”

"This ..... Isn't it too early. ”

"Is it still early?" The godfather opened his mouth and laughed, "Then when do you want to wait, I don't want you to come to the throne when I see Satan." ”

"Go up, I want to see. Haven't you sat on it before? I didn't see it then, but now you should look more handsome than I did when I was younger. ”

At the insistence of the godfather, Chen Jun sat down at the desk, feeling that there was no feeling, a little hard, and a little soft would be more comfortable.

"When you were in Sicily, did you think about the future of the Corleone family?" The godfather asked, "Now that you have sat in this position, the fate of everyone is in your hands, I hope you can take it well." ”

"I will grant your wish."

"No, I don't have any wishes, I just hope that the Corleone family can walk in the light, and you become a big man overlooking all beings, of course, I want you to be happy, and your family can be happy, which is more important than all so-called goals."

"Let me start by telling you about my plan for you."

"During this time, I will hand over to you all the friendships I have gained all my life, those friendships in justice, politics, and finance are far greater and more important than the power of the five great families, and this property is also the most important, the most precious, and the most coveted and feared among the Corleone families."

Chen Jun was awe-struck, as his godfather said, those were indeed very important to the Corleone family.

"What about you, what are your plans?"

The godfather asked with a little curiosity, he knew that his youngest son had a keen sense of smell in business, and he could analyze everything rationally and analyze the overall situation with his own unique ideas.

Chen Jun said quietly: "To be honest, my plan is no different from what I told you in the hospital before, it is a cliché, but some corresponding ideas have been added to this trip to Sicily. ”

"At present, the first thing is mainly to legalize the family industry, to break away from the circle of the five major families in New York, to cut off from them while ensuring their strength, to carry out industrial transformation, to sell off those black industry transformations and to invest in emerging and potential industries."

"We can't give up on many things like guilds, laws, politics, and so on, and we need to expand that influence even further."

"We want to move to the Corleone family, and the physical infrastructure will grow in tandem with the emerging industries, actively integrate into society, and create a good public image..... The detailed plan is ....."

A clear, magnetic voice gradually filled the room, and the godfather listened silently, nodding his head in approval from time to time.
