Chapter 252: Decent Sicilian

Angelo Brontë, an Italian immigrant, is not clear if she is a Sicilian, but she is a mafia.

He and his family are in St. Denis, and even law enforcement agencies dare not provoke easily.

A few days ago, another police officer was murdered by unknown people because he was investigating him privately.

On the bright side, however, Brontë was a brilliant and generous businessman, often sponsoring schools and children, and collecting donations for poor families and the elderly. In addition, he was very keen on politics, appeared in various social occasions in Saint-Denis, and had good relations with many government officials, including Mayor Henry.

It's not a little bit better than a gang of outlaws who only know how to wander around.

Obviously, the head snake gradually advanced to the emperor of the soil, but Brontë was not happy at all.

Because in recent times, his position has been challenged, whether it is the white side or the black side.

The sudden demise of the Braithwaite family caused his moonshine business to take a heavy hit.

Although the new ruler of Rhodes said that he could continue to supply, Brontë felt that he was a decent person, and that no one could cooperate if he wanted to.

You didn't say hello to me, and you killed my supplier, I don't want to lose face?

It's just that no one's face is as big as money's face, and if you want to continue to cooperate, you have to add money.

Unexpectedly, the other party directly rejected his proposal and cut off all previous contacts with the Brontë family.

Although St. Denis and Rhodes are in the same place in Lemon, they are two places after all, and it is somewhat unrealistic for one of the land snakes to run to other places and take revenge on the other land snake.

So Brontë decided to endure it for a while and wait until he found an opportunity to get revenge.

He is willing to put aside the festival for a while, it doesn't mean that the other party is willing, and it didn't take long for a mysterious gang to appear on the street of St. Denis, who usually likes to trouble the Brontë family when he has nothing to do, and then sell moonshine or something by the way.

And guess what? They sell the same moonshine as Brontë used to sell!

It's not big or small, it's not small, anyway, I can't bear it on Brontë.

So he also sent his men to make trouble for the other party.

As a result, the fate of those subordinates was either inexplicably evaporated, or they fell off their horses after drinking, or simply fell into the swamp outside the city, and when they were found, the corpses were almost eaten by crocodiles.

No matter how many people there are in the family, they can't stand the bottomless pit on the other side, and they can't fill it at all.

Brontë had a plan, the black one doesn't work, I'll come to the white one.

At first, it worked, and the territory controlled by the mysterious gang was raided by law enforcement officers an average of 1.3 times a day, and the seized moonshine eventually ended up in Brontë's hands in some way.

And the other party doesn't seem to want to clash with the official, and tries to avoid it every time.

It's a pity that Brontë's good days didn't last long.

When Leon's family moved to St. Denis, things took a turn for the worse.

The mysterious gang seems to have suddenly had a backbone, and began to invade the territory of the Brontë family, and every time they succeeded, the mafia, who had always been ruthless, met them like rats and cats.

There were countless bloody clashes between the two sides, but only the Brontë men were bleeding.

Finally, the sheriff chief, who couldn't bear it anymore, called Brontë.

Stop it, there's nothing wrong with dividing the world equally.

Brontë asked the director if he had made such a call.

The director said no, because Mayor Henry was having afternoon tea with the other party's boss at this time.

Then Brontë found that the world had changed, that he had been a rich and powerful 'eminent businessman' in the eyes of politicians, and that now Saint-Denis had a richer family, more manpower than him.

The most excessive thing is that he is still from an aristocratic background, and he is just an Italian clay leg.

As for how Brontë found out about the identity of the boss behind Li Ang, it is actually very simple.

First of all, the two are neighbors, and second, the ghost dog does not turn his back on people when he enters and leaves Leon's mansion.

Black and white can't be compared, and their own territory is still being encroached upon.

There is no way, let's negotiate for peace, what the director said is also reasonable, there is nothing wrong with dividing the world equally.

But when Brontë took a few children who had followed the carriage of the Ty family and was about to visit, he was told by the burly butler of the Leon family, who did not look like a human: My master is not here, so come back another day.

This change is a full half a month.

The once prosperous Brontë family is already struggling to breathe, and Brontë himself is like an old man who is about to die.

During this period, all his official friends stood by and watched, and the director directly broke off his friendship with him.

even sent back some of the black money he had collected before.

When Brontë and his family saw that they could not bear it, Leon finally agreed to meet him.

"Mr. Brontë, is it? Feel free to sit down. ”

Leon sat on the couch, holding a newspaper and reading it with relish, completely ignoring Brontë's outstretched hand.

Ever since he finished fighting the imposter vampire, he has enjoyed reading the newspaper.

I didn't pay attention to this when I played games in my previous life, but now I think it's actually quite interesting.

Many follow-up plots of the main line and side lines, plus some news that reflects the style of the times, can be found in the newspapers.

For example, the loss of the lion of the English circus, the shootout between the Fan gang and the Cornish private army in Valentine, the beginning of the popularization of electric light in the United States, the improvement and invention of household appliances such as refrigerators and washing machines, and the great prosperity of the sugar industry in Guama.

Leon was concentrating on reading the news, and Brontë and a few children stood awkwardly awkwardly, not even daring to breathe.

I don't know how long it took for him to finally raise his head.

"Mr. Brontë is here today, is there anything wrong?"

Brontë was relieved and hurriedly pushed several children to the front: "Apologize to this kind gentleman for your previous rude behavior." ”

As soon as the words fell, several members of the Children's Gang immediately fell to their knees and slapped themselves desperately.

While fanning, he said sorry pitifully.

It wasn't until they fanned their faces that they were red and swollen that Leon said slowly: "Although they usually steal chickens and dogs, do evil, and their mouths are still very smelly, I won't be angry with a bunch of children, so let's stop." ”

Several bear children breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this, according to previous experience, as long as they pretended to be weak and pitiful, they would definitely be able to escape punishment.

Adults are easy to deceive!

But then, Leon said: "Bayek, you don't need to buy flower fertilizer, find someone to dig a hole in the garden." ”

"Yes, sir." Bayek glanced coldly at the bears, as if to gauge how big a hole to dig.

Brontë was dumbfounded, and the children's gang was even more frightened, and their faces turned pale and trembled like chaff.

After a long few seconds, Leon suddenly smiled and said, "Just kidding, I'm not a bad person. ”

"There is a shortage of workers in the Anissberg mine, so let's send them there. Seeing that you are not too young to be young, you should try to support yourself with industrious hands, instead of idleness all day long. ”

Li Ang didn't have any psychological pressure to clean up these bear children, not to mention that they had already left the category of bear children and became a group of real criminals.

In addition, the use of child labor has always been legal in the United States.

When the crying children were carried by the Nether Dog, Leon finally focused on Brontë.

"Are you trying to find someone to assassinate me lately?"

The deep eyes made Brontë sweat in an instant, and he was terrified: "How. How can it be. ”

The mafia boss quibbled while scolding his betrayer in his heart.

However, Brontë was not betrayed by anyone, it was that he did not find the right person.

The assassination of the opponent's boss is such a thing, you can't use your own people, and it will be easy to find out, so Brontë actually contacted Ducky and them through the gangster relationship.

At first, Ducky agreed quite happily.

After all, assassinating a mafia leader is easier for the Fan Gang than drinking water, and it doesn't even require Arthur to be dispatched.

Until he heard that the leader's name was Leon, and that he was from the town of Rhodes.

No matter how much money Blanc gave him, Ducky didn't want to do it, he didn't want to die, and at the same time deliberately revealed the news to Sadie.

Sadie went to the city to find Leon.

When Leon found out, he agreed to meet with Brontë.

"It's good if not, I understand that Monsieur Brontë is a decent man, and it is impossible to do such a decently bad thing."

"Okay, now that the misunderstanding is resolved, it's fine."

"Butler, send-off."

Brontë had now completely forgotten that he was here to negotiate, and hurriedly followed Bayek away.

He felt that if he continued to stay, he would be the one who would be buried in the garden as flower fertilizer.

As soon as the mafia left on his front foot, Leon called out to the Nether Dog.

"If Mr. Brontë wants to be decent, then give him decency."

"Yes." Nether Dog was ordered to leave.

Subsequently, Leon returned to the Great Blessing.

Achina was invited to the mayor's dinner, and the three sisters went with her, and he was the only one in the family, so he could only find Xiaomei to relieve her loneliness.

The next day, somewhere in the streets of Saint-Denis.

Arthur, who was sent by Ducky to the city to reconnoiter the situation, saw that the newsboy was selling the newspaper in his hand, and his voice was hoarse, and he couldn't bear to pay for it.

And the headline on the front page reads:

[Angelo Brontë, a member of the Chamber of Commerce of St. Denis, a well-known philanthropist and billionaire, committed suicide by poisoning himself in his mansion in the early hours of last night. The cause of the suicide may have been related to the recent succession of failed business practices, and Mayor Henry and many other government officials lamented that St. Denis had since lost a man of conscience.

Brontë was controversial during his lifetime, with accusations that he was linked to an illegal group suspected of smuggling and extortion. ]

After reading the news, Arthur snorted his teeth.

It was too fast, and yesterday morning Sadie went into town, and in the evening there were no people.

After sighing, he continued to flip through the newspaper.

Anyway, you have to read it all, and you might find something useful in it.

Since losing his position as sheriff, Arthur has had a poor life.

Outlaws like him have always spent lavishly, and the little savings he had saved in Rhodes were squandered in a short time.

When I went to Valentine to meet his ex-girlfriend Mary a few days ago, I didn't have much money to buy gifts.

The only consolation is that Mary's husband died of illness not long ago, and she didn't know where to learn about his pardon, hoping that he would take the opportunity to quit the gang and move to another place together.

Arthur rightfully refused, and Mary was saddened.

The so-called frustration in the love field and the pride in the workplace.

Arthur, who finished reading the newspaper, really found two good opportunities.

First of all, a cruise ship called the Grand Coregan, which will anchor in the port of St. Denis for several weeks, will host a night of gambling that will attract many wealthy entrepreneurs and ladies.

Second, Cornwall's tar smelter has been doing well lately, and the head of the company has exchanged the money earned by the plant for a large amount of bonds to show support for the federal government. Anyone who has ever been an outlaw knows that this bearer bond sells better than gold, silver and jewelry.

Anyway, I've robbed Cornwall so many times, so why not grab it again.

Having made up his mind, Arthur put the folded newspaper back in his bag and prepared to return to the Shade Beauty to tell everyone the good news of the two fortunes.

If you don't want to open source, the gang will not be able to open the pot.

Yesterday Ducky had the whimsical idea to rob the tram stop at St. Denis, and he didn't know who he was bewitched by.

Arthur's sheriff was not in vain, knowing that it was impossible to store too much cash in a place like a train station and tram stop, so it was better to rob it than to grab a carriage and sell it on the black market in the Emerald Ranch.

Speaking of which, the location of the Cornish tar plant is in the heart of the earth.

Thinking about it, Arthur rode out of the city center.

Shortly after he left, a well-looking young woman in a long dress appeared where he had been.

Her name was Mary Lington, a widow.

"The back of that person just now looks like Arthur? But what did he come to St. Denis for? Am I mistaken? ”

Mary withdrew her gaze from afar, and rearranged her dress.

Continue towards Flavian Street.

She has an interview today, and the employer is a big nobleman from Europe, and she wants to hire a housekeeper who is quick and familiar with St. Denis.

After her husband's death, Marie lost her financial resources and moved back to St. Denis with her brother to live with her father.

If her ex-boyfriend is an outlaw, her father is an old bastard.

Drinking and gambling all day long, sitting and eating, completely ignoring the life or death of their siblings.

Seeing that her father's valuable things were pawned by her father, Mary decided to find a job in order to support herself and her brother.

The butler, though it doesn't sound very decent, is well paid.

Moreover, in the current era of low status of women, she has little choice.

Walking to the wealthy area of Flavian Street, Mary followed the address and found the mansion of the Leon family.

After informing the gun-wielding doorman of her intentions, she was ushered into the most luxurious manor.

In front of the main house, an expressionless butler was waiting for her.

Under the other party's cold eyes, Mary suddenly became a little nervous, and said softly: "My name is Mary Lington, and I am here to apply." ”

"I know." The butler didn't say much: "Come with me." ”

Mary silently followed behind the butler.

In the spacious living room, the tall and handsome gentleman and the three beautiful and touching young ladies talked and laughed, and next to the throne-like high-backed sofa, sat a lady with extraordinary bearing.

The word 'majestic' popped up in Mary's mind, and the appearance of the three sisters made her feel ashamed of herself.

"Mary Lington? Lift your head up and let me see. ”

The lady with a long cigarette stick spoke.

The rest of the people in the living room stopped chatting and turned their eyes on her.

Mary became more nervous and looked up restrainedly.

The majestic lady looked her up and down and said, "Turn around." ”

Mary felt like a picked animal, but eventually did so.

"Well, it's okay to watch." Madame took her scrutinizing gaze away from her, "How are you feeling?" ”

The handsome gentleman spoke, "Yes, stay." ”

After he finished speaking, the three young ladies also said that they had no opinion.

The noble lady seemed a little helpless about the casual attitude of men, but finally decided to hire Mary: "I hope you can have half the cleverness of Elena." ”

"Bayek, take her down and teach her the rules, and she will officially come to work tomorrow."

When the housekeeper heard this, he invited Mary outside to talk.

During the whole conversation, Mary was completely in a state of clouds and fog, and her mind was dizzy until she walked out of the manor.

However, she received several valuable messages.

She had a rival named Elena, whom Madame liked very much; The housekeeper's name is Bayek, and I don't know what his surname is; Her main job in the future was to take care of the daily life of Madame and the three young ladies; The family, as rumored, was very, very rich.

In the end, this unique aristocratic family, the gentleman who can really call the shots.

The original plan was to add more, but I was lazy, so let's do it tomorrow
