Chapter 296 Gone

Of course Wang Yan has heard of the name of the Corleone family. After all, there is a "man's bible" in reality, and the movie is also a classic in film history, and he has also seen it. It's just that I've been watching it for so long that I forgot about it.

Wang Yan tried his best to recall the plot related to The Godfather, but it took too long and he had a lot of messy things in his mind. No matter how energetic he was, he still couldn't find much in his memory. However, he was not completely unimpressed. At least he remembered that The Godfather started after the war, and World War II ended on September 2, 1945, which was about that time.

Of course, he just had nothing to think about and it had nothing to do with the Corleone family. After all, it was just business. He is the leader of the American mafia. He knows many congressmen, governors, mayors, and police officers. He can also mobilize thousands of combatants to go out on the street. He controls many labor unions and monopolizes olive oil marketing channels in the United States. His subordinates Gambling, finance, real estate, construction and other industries are involved. It is true that the hands and eyes can understand the sky, black and white.

And their Correa family is just a group of bumpkins from Sicily who have just gained some fame, and their biggest achievement was just killing the Don of Messina. Although the Don of Messina is also powerful, it is still far from enough compared to the Corleone family. Their Correa family is the younger brother within the younger brother, and they are not in the eyes of the Corleone family.

So Wang Yan didn't feel offended, was it just business, and apart from directly killing the upper class members of the Corleone family, they were no match for the Corleone family at all. But after killing the Corleone family, the casualties certainly don't matter, just a few of his foreign devils were killed. But all the efforts to destroy the Corleone family could not bring them any benefits. They were all used as wedding dresses for others. No matter what kind of business, they should be unable to get in or get in, they can only get some cornerstones. Maybe others will attack in groups and drive them out of the United States.

Of course, Wang Yan didn't care about killing them if they could be destroyed with a wave of his hand. It's just because the interests are inconsistent, so there is no need to waste energy.

After thinking about it, Wang Yan said: "In this case, you have someone talk to them again, and we can supply them with cheaper prices than others."

If the price were in China, he would definitely not give in, but here he is doing business without capital. It can be regarded as squeezing the interests of local olive grove farmers and those nobles, and they middlemen make the difference. I originally wanted to sell it myself, but I didn't expect Corleone to come out and cause trouble. But it doesn't matter. It's just a matter of making more and less. They don't rely on this to make money, they rely on this to land in the United States.

"Yes, sir."

Wang Yan nodded and said: "Also, ask the person who broke the contract to contact us to apply for identity. Don't be afraid of spending money. We need to be clean. If it can't be solved, then ask the Corleone family for help. They are not rich in political resources. What? We can add money."

McCas nodded in response.

In fact, Wang Yan is to blame for this matter, because he doesn't know when Malena's husband died. He saw that there was a US air raid in the movie, which was almost in April 1st. So he followed the preparations made at the end of April 1st, before Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. At this early stage, he has not yet managed anything, and he has not yet understood the relationship there. So the plan had to be changed, and the Corleone family happened to show up, so it was not impossible to make a condition by refusing.

After all, they don't bite and respond to others. Although they look down on them, it's not good to be remembered all the time. So the Corleone family will definitely help, not to mention they will pay a lot of money. Vito Corleone would not refuse a conflict that could be avoided with a little effort. This is the kind of person he is, and many people are like this. There are few fools who pretend to be angry.

Then he talked about some other matters, nothing more than the progress of the business and so on. They have several smuggling routes and many partners, so there are still a lot of messes. It's because he doesn't have the ability, or he hasn't opened up the channel to Asia. After all, land transportation is fighting everywhere, and maritime transportation has a fleet blockade. Otherwise, he would have gone there long ago. It can be regarded as support.

But at this time, when he can support, it is not so necessary. After all, he had withstood the initial period of time and the war entered a stalemate stage. When he opened up the channels, they all got a counterattack. His weapons and ammunition are useful, but not as powerful as expected. At that time, it may be just reselling some things that are beneficial to post-war resumption of production and industrial construction.

After talking nonsense, Wang Yan drank all the wine in his glass, stood up and walked out: "That's it for today, let's all disperse."

Amidst the greetings, Wang Yan walked out of the yard and walked directly towards home without going around to cover up. After all, he had already told himself what happened with Marlena. It would be pointless to hide it anymore, and there was no way to hide it.

Because I had a backlog of things over the past few days and talked a lot, it was already past two o'clock in the middle of the night when I got home. After simply wiping his body, Wang Yan lay down next to Marlena.

As if sensing Wang Yan's aura, the sleeping Marlena naturally ran into his arms and rode up with one jade leg.

Wang Yan smiled slightly, let her ride, closed his eyes and fell asleep with her in his arms...

Because his spirit becomes more powerful, his perception becomes more and more terrifying, and it is no lie that he can wake up at the slightest sign of trouble. But after so many years of sleeping, he was used to it. It can already subconsciously block many things, such as the movement of women around you, such as thunder on rainy nights, etc., so you can sleep peacefully. But when he senses danger, he can still wake up as soon as possible. This ability may be regarded as a sixth sense. Most people have it, but he is much stronger.

The next day, as expected and naturally, Marlena overslept again, and it was already after nine o'clock when she opened her eyes. He sat up and yawned loudly, stretched his arms, and straightened his back. He looked like a sluggish figure, showing off the beautiful curves that attracted thousands of men.

She got out of bed and put on her slippers, put the fallen sling on her shoulders, combed her long hair, walked out of the bedroom, and went downstairs.

As far as the eye could see, her man was sitting on the sofa in the corner again, reading a book in his hand. She didn't understand why Wang Yan always sat there before, but now, she understood, it was what she asked before.

It is backed against the wall and not next to the window. People who rush in will not notice it immediately, and the situation inside cannot be seen from the outside. At the same time, the entire space on the first floor is under observation, and emergencies can be discovered and responded to in time.

"Good morning, dear Marlena." Upon hearing the movement, Wang Yan raised his head and met the woman's eyes.

"Good morning, dear king." Marlena smiled, walked downstairs, and said, "You always get up so early."

Wang Yan stretched out his hand and patted the round and plump breakfast: "Breakfast is already prepared. If you don't get up, it will become lunch."

Malena smiled charmingly: "My dear, cooking is my duty as your wife. Although the food you cook is delicious, please let me do it in the future, as long as you show off your skills occasionally. ,Honey."

"Of course." Wang Yan nodded calmly: "But my dear Marlena, are you sure you can get up in the morning? You can't starve your husband."

Her face turned red, and Marlena just pretended that she had not spoken just now, and slapped away the warm hand that made people feel warm: "I'm going to the bathroom."

Wang Yan laughed, stopped teasing, and continued reading the book in his hand.

After a while, Marlena finished washing and sat at the dining table to eat breakfast: "Wang, I will go find my father in a moment. Do you want me to tell him about your situation first?"

"Of course, this is respect for your father." Wang Yan said without raising his head: "You have to tell him that I am an Oriental, I have no identity in Sicily, and I have deep connections with the Mafia. If you want , you can also tell him how we met and how we fell in love, so that he can rest assured. We should also explain to him clearly that we are leaving Sicily for the United States, so that he can be prepared."

"You also need to tell him that if he doesn't come to see me, I will go see him tonight." Wang Yan looked at Marlena's worried look and smiled: "Don't think so much, as long as your father doesn't discriminate against me This Oriental, then there is no problem. The reason why you say this is also because you said that your father is more stubborn. If you say this, he will definitely come. Malena, I told you, I won’t do it Tell me something that makes you sad, trust me."

Marlena shook her head: "Of course I believe you, honey, but I'm just thinking about how to talk to him better."

Wang Yan smiled slightly, lowered his head and continued reading. He was doing a good deed, after all, Malena's biological father was killed by a US airstrike in the movie. As for whether the old guy is sensible or not, it really doesn't matter. He is his father-in-law anyway. As long as he is not an old fool and betrays him, there will be no problem. He is not a very narrow-minded person. There is no need to vent his anger with an old man and let him go as soon as he gets the flowers and grass growing in the United States.

After breakfast, Malena changed into black clothes, put on a black headscarf, and carried a black bag. After kissing Wang Yan goodbye, she went out to find her biological father for a showdown.

Along the way, Malena felt a little strange. Because in the past, there were not many lustful eyes that wanted to devour her, but there were not many eyes on her. She accidentally caught the eyes of several men, and among them there seemed to be "So you are such a woman." 'a feeling of. She didn't know why, she obviously didn't do anything.

Entering the town and approaching the square, Marlena heard people talking in the distance.

"Hey, did you hear that? The dentist had his teeth pulled out just last night."

"How could I not know this is the biggest news today."

"Someone saw the dentist going to Marlena's house yesterday. Do you think it might be related to her?"

"I heard that the people who did it were Don Correa's men. Could it be that..."

Although these people did not continue talking, Marlena, as the victim, certainly knew what was going on. Since the man was not dead, Marlena was not worried. Instead, she was still thinking about her man's creativity. Dentist without teeth, is this the humor of Oriental men?

There were thousands of thoughts in her mind, and she even wanted to laugh, but on her face, Marlena still had a slumped face. Under the silent attention of everyone, she walked through the square step by step and walked towards her father's house. She could hear the whispers of people behind her where she walked. Two people talk quietly, and ordinary people can't hear them. But when a group of people whisper and the voices converge in one place, it’s buzzing, which is really annoying.

She had adapted to this treatment and continued to walk at her own pace. She was proud in her heart, and she knew that whenever she walked through a place, the moment she lost her voice was due to her man's intimidation. At this moment, she even felt that there seemed to be nothing wrong with the murderous thug with a notorious reputation.

"Marlena!"

Marlena, who was lamenting the intimidation of her man, heard someone calling her, and immediately stopped and looked sideways following the sound. It was Lieutenant Cady who had his hands behind his back.

"What's the matter, Lieutenant Cady?"

Cady looked at her sincerely: "Marlena, if you have any trouble, you can tell me and I will help you solve it."

"I'm fine. Thank you for your concern. Goodbye." After saying that, Marlena nodded politely and turned to leave. Well, I saw that unlucky kid riding a bicycle again.

Cady opened his mouth. He wanted to stop Marlena, but in the end he didn't say anything. Although he is a lieutenant officer, he is not easy to use, not as powerful as the mafia, and not as rich as them. He saw with his own eyes that Don Correa, who was almost killed, was joking with the highest-ranking brigadier general in the Syracuse military...

Marlena arrived at her biological father's house, helped make lunch, and then gritted her teeth and told the truth, telling her biological father everything. Of course she thought of it, and her deaf father scolded her loudly. It's not that she dislikes Wang Yan, an Oriental, but because they lived in the same house for nearly a year because they got together two days after her husband died.

Of course, no matter what her biological father said, Marlena did not refute it. She had her own ideas. She was very sure that she loved Wang Yan and she would not listen no matter what her biological father said. It's just a reminder to my biological father to keep his voice down. Because people with bad ears always speak loudly, thinking that others cannot hear them. Marlena's biological father also knew that Wang Yan's identity should not be exposed, otherwise his daughter would be implicated, but he still got angry and scolded...

Wang Yan poured a glass of serious Lafite dry red from the 1920s to the old man, or rather his father-in-law, Mr. Rui Costa. People from China are equally romantic. Although they were beaten for their looks, they did not lose their enjoyment at all.

"Marlena should have told you that you may have some misunderstandings about us." Wang Yan smiled and raised his glass. He didn't care that his father-in-law ignored him. He clinked his glass with Marlena who was cheering and took a sip: "We are here Before, there was absolutely no extraordinary behavior, worthy of the dead Lieutenant Antono. But the love deep in our hearts cannot be escaped. You are a father, and your daughter's happiness must of course be within your consideration. You should know, How difficult it is for Marlena to live alone in such a society."

"You said Marlena has embarrassed you? How do you say it is not embarrassing? Marlena is so beautiful, and this town is full of jackals and tigers who covet her beauty. Last night the dentist came to see Marlena, you said he Why? How many men are like that dentist in the town? You don’t know the gossip in daily life, right? How can you, an old father who only cares about his own face, take care of Marlena? Has anyone told you something? What, you just ignored Marlena without thinking about it? Then what is Marlena’s final fate, do I need to say more? "

The bald old man was not in a good mood when he came in. He glared at him angrily, which made all the meals he specially cooked go in vain. Of course, he would still have to do it even without this old man, but it always felt bad.

This old man was indeed almost mean. He ignored his own daughter after writing a letter. Marlena hadn't even gone to sea at that time. It was really bad. Of course, this also shows that he is not unaware of Malena's situation in the town. Perhaps it was because he knew that, as a father, he was unable to change, so he had no choice but to escape. Maybe he was killed by the US bombing, which might have fulfilled his wish.

The three of them sat on three sides of the dining table. Wang Yan and Marlena faced each other, with their father-in-law in between. He spoke into his ears. Although he didn't shout, the room was quiet, and Marlena's biological father still heard clearly. of.

He wanted to sneer harshly, but considering Wang Yan's status as a thug, the old man still knew how to restrain himself: "Young boy from the East, I don't want to hear you talk about things that didn't happen. What I know is that you guys are in Antono When the child was still alive, they lived together and were in love for a long time. In any case, this is a betrayal of Antono. You two did not do the right thing. And on the third day after receiving the news of Antono's death , just tell me that you are together, you want to have children, and you are going to America. You will not be blessed by God, poor Antono..."

Wang Yan asked: "So you don't want to go to the United States with us?"

"I'm fine here by myself. You can go wherever you like." The old man stared with big eyes, and Marlena just let him.

Originally, I wanted to have a good talk, but my father-in-law is so inexperienced that no matter how much he talks, it is useless. Conversation and communication are based on both parties being able to listen calmly and carefully and think carefully about the other party's ideas. Otherwise, it would be boring. If I talk about shoulders and you talk about hips, there is no need for dialogue.

Shrugging at the somewhat unhappy Marlena, Wang Yan said: "That's it, let's eat."

The old man still gave Wang Yan three points of thin noodles and didn't throw the cup away, which was considered good. In addition, his hearing is also bad, Wang Yan is too lazy to build relationships, so that's it.

After bidding farewell to her father who was full of oil after eating, Marlena returned to the house and walked to the kitchen sink, cleaning up with Wang Yan: "My dear, my dad is like that, don't be angry with him."

"Why should I be angry? It's normal for people to be stubborn when they get older. You might as well become like that in the future. It's no big deal." Wang Yan wiped the plate, tilted his head and gave a smile: " You don’t have to worry, as I said before, your father will take him away if he doesn’t agree, and he can’t resist, so it’ll be fine.”

Marlena nodded and asked doubtfully: "It's really strange. My father didn't like Antono much before, so why do he defend him so much now?"

Wang Yan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Perhaps he wants to tell me in this way that Antono is good enough to you, and wants me, an Easterner who is rejected by others in the West, to cherish you more and treat you more kindly. . He loves you, Marlena." Of course, it may be that she simply doesn't like him, but it doesn't matter, and there is no need to say it out loud. It must be said as nicely as possible.

After hearing this, Malena thought for a moment that it was indeed the case, and of course her mood improved. After all, as the last relative alive, he is still her biological father, so how could it be possible that she doesn't value him.

The two of them chatted and laughed and put away the kitchen waste. After washing the plates and cutlery, Wang Yan sat on the sofa and read a book as usual, while Marlena began to sew and mend. The dim light illuminated their figures warmly.

"Turn off the lights!"

At half past nine, the night watchman outside shouted loudly on time.

Do not touch stone with porcelain, this is the wise saying of our ancestors. Vito Corleone has been working in the industry since he was twelve years old, and he deeply understands this truth. Don't let him get into any trouble that can be avoided. So of course, he used his many years of connections to help get the necessary identity information, and gained a small sum of money from it. At the same time, he agreed to a request for cooperation in supplying olive oil at a low price, gaining the friendship of the Correa family, which had recently become famous in Sicily.

Of course, all of this was only agreed after Vito Corleone learned the information about Leo Correa from beginning to end from different channels. Cautious from beginning to end, years of ups and downs told him that Leo's rise was not simple. Because judging from his resume and various news, he didn't think Leo had the need to get rid of his predecessor Tang, and it was only one night, and the autumn wind swept away the fallen leaves. If Leo really had that much ability, it would be impossible for a man in his thirties to remain unknown forever.

Therefore, he judged that there must be something hidden behind this, and there must be some help, but he didn't know what it was. It wasn't until he saw the identity registration information that Leo sent over and the distinctive oriental face that he asked someone to investigate again that he realized that maybe this person was the key to the problem. But he didn't take any further action, it was just his usual caution that made him pay attention.

After settling these matters and receiving clear news, it was already late April, which was more than a month as Wang Yan expected, but the problem was not big. After packing some things that Marlena was reluctant to part with, one day, Wang Yan asked someone to take Marlena and her father-in-law, who was kidnapped by him, to Palermo to catch a plane to New York.

Because of his status, he is not as convenient as Marlena and his father-in-law, two white people. So he had to take a few of his men, follow the smuggling channel, and sneak ashore in a small port on the west coast of the United States. When they get there, their subordinates who have been prepared will give them their identity information, allowing them to become Americans from the first moment they set foot on that land. Then he took a plane across the United States in Los Angeles and arrived at the East Coast to meet with Marlena.

The entire time was almost three days later than Malena.

As for Malena's safety, he sent several of his men to protect her. As for the loyalty of his subordinates, if something happens at this time, then Wang Yan should stop messing around. After all, he wouldn't leave his woman in the hands of others if he wasn't sure.

Wang Yan set out. In the dark night, his eyes were bright, looking at the distant outline of unfamiliar Sicily without feeling anything.

On the other hand, a few of his confidants felt as if they were missing him. They knew that although they said they would come back, how long would it be? After all, it was the hometown where they grew up, so they still felt a little reluctant to leave. But when they think about living in the United States, their reluctance disappears in a blink of an eye. They yearn for...
