Chapter 297 Meeting
One afternoon when the setting sun was setting, in a two-story villa with a large yard and a large swimming pool in Long Beach in the south of Long Island, Malena absentmindedly sat on a lounge chair in front of her house and looked at the boundless sea in front of her.
The wind blows across the sea, rolling up waves, layer upon layer, and rushes to the beach. The wind blew her long black wavy hair, and the strands of hair on her forehead were flying in the wind. The wind picked up her thoughts and carried them across the Atlantic Ocean back to the small town in Sicily. She didn't miss her hometown, she only missed that person in her hometown, that oriental man.
It had been half a month since she left Syracuse. She spent a few days in Palermo and took a plane to Nuyo. Someone drove them to their current home, and in the next few days she took a few of them out to the mall and selected some furniture to fill it in. In the blink of an eye, it has now been four days, which is already more than three days later than the three days he said when they separated. She knew that he came in illegally, so she was late for the agreed time, and she was particularly worried about his safety.
Ever since they met, including when she was afraid of him at the beginning, they had never been apart for so long. She kept praying to God in her heart for his safety.
Not far away, wearing jeans, a plaid shirt, and a sun hat, his father looked like an old American man. He was cursing and playing with the flowers and plants in the yard. Malena consciously pretended not to hear, because her biological father had already scolded her all the way. Even though he had been away from Syracuse for half a month, and even though it had been four days since he arrived in his new home, he was still chattering away. Anyway, no matter what, we are here, and he will definitely not be able to run away.
Not far away, several men in black suits were smoking, drinking, and playing cards on tables in the yard. They were the men of her own family who had escorted them all the way and bought furniture and clothes with her. They also have a house nearby. They said that they had bought this whole area and wanted to renovate it. As for money, she never asked a question. Because the recliner under her butt is worth a hundred dollars, half a year's wealth of an ordinary worker in her hometown, and now it is just a recliner that she can lie on...
Marlena lay there bored, in a daze, missing a man.
Not long after she stayed there, the sound of a car coming from far away made her wake up. This area is their place, and no one will drive here unless he arrives. This thought flashed through my mind, and I immediately sat up and walked across the first floor of the villa to the courtyard at the gate. I saw Wang Yan getting out of the car in the back row and waving to her with a smile.
"King!" Malena shouted happily, trotted and flew into the familiar embrace, and couldn't help crying: "I'm very worried about you."
Patting her back, Wang Yan comforted her softly: "Okay, okay, I'm here. Nothing happened at all. She's fine."
Marlena didn't speak, she just hugged and cried. Wang Yan had no choice but to say to his men: "You get some food first, and I'll comfort her." After saying that, he picked up Marlena and walked into the villa.
The rest of the brothers, you look at me, I look at you, hey, hehe, he took out his things in the car and followed the people who originally guarded Marlena to meet up to see how their houses were. . Then he followed Big Brother's order and got some food.
After Wang Yan comforted Marlena here, it was already dark. He hugged her with lingering lingering emotions in his arms and played with the plump and elastic baby: "How is life here? Are you not used to anything?" "
Marlena murmured softly: "Everything is fine, I just miss you so much and worry about you."
"I'm not very good, now it's time to put your worries aside and our new life begins."
There were indeed no accidents on the way, but they encountered a storm and stayed one more day. Their channels are very reliable, either with money or with help from others. They have been working together stably for more than half a year and are operating well without any glitches.
"Um."
"Okay, don't think about it anymore. Let's drive out for a walk tomorrow. We'll go to the farm in two days to have a look. If we want to live there, we can move there. If not, we can use it as an outing. place."
"It's all up to you."
"By the way, how is your father?"
Marlena shook her head and smiled: "He scolded me all the way, ignored me, and gritted his teeth when I mentioned you. The flowers and plants you asked people to get are all ready. He seems to like it very much, but he still takes care of it while saying that we are wrong. "
"Let him be, you'll get used to it." As he spoke, Wang Yan hugged Marlena and stood up: "Let's wash up, it's time to have dinner, and then we can continue to tell each other how much we miss each other."
Marlena hugged the man and looked at her charmingly, and she thought so too. Compared with the subtleness of the East, the West is still more direct and enthusiastic, especially in this era.
After a while, after washing up, the two of them went downstairs.
My subordinates didn't know how to do it, so they just drove out and packed some things back. The old man had already finished eating. He was holding a dog heel he got from nowhere in the large backyard, sitting on a chair facing the sea breeze and sighing about life.
Marlena went out to take a look and cared about her biological father. After receiving no good words, she stuck out her tongue, returned to Wang Yan and sat down to eat, listening to the men talking about their 'careers'.
"How are things going recently?" Wang Yan has been on the road for more than half a month, and has been on the road. Except for particularly important things, no one will bother to find him, so he is still a little out of touch.
McCas, who escorted Marlena and her daughter, said: "Everything is going according to your previous plan. The olive oil business has begun to cooperate with the Corleone family. Our previous smuggling business has not been affected. On the contrary, Because of the war, we made more money..."
He said this for a while. After hearing the details, Wang Yan looked at a person sitting far away and said, "Cotton, have you finished registering the company?"
This guy's name is Cotton Abad, he was the younger brother in charge he sent here in the early days. He's not a reckless guy like Max and Val, he's a man who can use his brain. The cooperation with the Corleone family, including getting the identity and so on, was all done by this kid.
Cotton nodded and said: "In accordance with your instructions, I found a professional lawyer and registered it separately in various places, including Europe."
After humming, Wang Yan asked, "When will Leo come over?"
"It's almost in the next few days. He will leave after he has taken care of all those things."
"Have you seen the new house? Are you satisfied?"
Everyone nodded in unison, America, how can you be dissatisfied? They have also heard other mafia members who were driven out of the United States say that compared to their poor hometown, it is impossible not to yearn for it. What's more, after a while, their family members will come over one after another, and they will be extremely satisfied.
Wang Yan smiled slightly and waved his hand, indicating that everyone should continue eating. While eating, he gave instructions on what he wanted the group to do next.
Although it has been in business for a while, it has not achieved much results. Basically, it is dependent on the Corleone family and has no resources of its own. It’s no different than when they first arrived in America. They had nothing but money. Including important political resources, as well as relationships in other industries, etc.
Of course it is impossible to continue like this, and we must still manage our own relationships. However, if he breaks the contract, the space for him to display is limited. No matter black or white, the five mafia families entrenched in the dispute cannot get past it. Of course, they are only on one side. If they were really that powerful, they would not be the little brothers of those big capitalists, but that's just a relative term.
It's not that he wants to be a gangster leader, but considering the environment, whether it's Hong Kong in the past, or the United States now or in the future, when resources are not available, the easiest way to obtain them is to be a gangster and rob them. Not only can you threaten and force others, but you can also protect yourself, and primitive accumulation is easier. Just like now, by reselling arms and smuggling various scarce items, a lot of wealth has been accumulated in just one year. If he simply takes the right path and develops slowly, even if he has financial resources, he still needs money to develop, so when will he go?
It's the same as him selling body-building pills. He spent nearly two hundred years developing something that can easily accumulate money, so why not use it. The same is true for being a gangster. He can start super well and be stable with few interruptions from monsters and ghosts. Why shouldn't he be wrong?
As for now, he is definitely not a gangster, because the gangster is Leo, and if anything happens, it is Leo's business. Therefore, his plan was to first conduct a thorough investigation of the gangster forces in the United States. After Leo arrived, he would take a look at the situation and it would be enough to destroy one family and gain power.
As the leader of the gangsters in the United States, the Corleone family, who had helped them, should pay a visit. After thinking about it, Wang Yan said: "Cotton, I will write something for you in a while, which is all medicinal materials. You take a few people to China and purchase a batch. By the way, see if you can open up channels for shipping goods in the process. , which is also a big market.”
Cotton nodded and accepted the order without asking why. He was quite sensible and did whatever he was told.
"In addition, help me make an appointment with Don Corleone. The time will be next Wednesday. I want to express my gratitude to him in person." He still trusts Vito Corleone and is not afraid of exposing himself. Of course, on the other hand, it is also because when Leo arrives, once they take action, the connection between him and Leo cannot be hidden under the investigation of interested people. But he is not afraid of that. He claims that death is just a matter of going too far. It is not a big problem and has no impact.
Seeing Cotton nodding, Wang Yan waved his hand: "Okay, that's it, let's break up."
"Yes, sir." The group of big men had already finished eating and were waiting for Wang Yan to say they were disbanded. Not to mention that they themselves were afraid of Wang Yan. On the other hand, if the eldest brother was having sex with a woman, it would be better for them to get out of the way if they were in such a trouble.
A group of people left, and Marlena asked: "Honey, what can I do for you?"
Wang Yan smiled hoarsely, stretched out his hand to rub her head, and smoothed her wavy long black hair: "Your most important task is to enjoy life, which is to spend money. Or we should seize the time to have many children, so you can take care of them. You Of course it’s okay if you want to do something, but if you don’t want to help me, you have to like it yourself.”
Marlena nodded, put down the knife and fork in her hand, turned around and smiled charmingly: "My dear, I've finished eating..."
Wang Yan threw away the knife and fork and carried the giggling Marlena upstairs. This time, he turned on the switch...
In the next few days, Wang Yan drove Malena to take a nice stroll in Nuoyue, and then stayed at a farm in the outer suburbs for two days. In the end, Malena chose to live in Changdao because it was more prosperous. More convenient.
During this period, we also received news that the Corleone family agreed to meet. Maybe Vito Corleone was also curious about Wang Yan. Wang Yan was sure that everyone had already known the news that they were in place. As the only force that has almost come into conflict recently, no matter how concerned it is, it cannot be overstated.
Of course, something unhappy must have happened during the game, after all, his appearance and complexion are too eye-catching. There was a lot of discrimination after 80 years, let alone now, it really caused a lot of trouble. But overall it’s not bad, at the end of the day it’s almost like breaking a leg a day…
A week passed in the blink of an eye, and it was Tuesday, the day before meeting Vito Corleone, and Leo arrived.
In the courtyard of the villa, Wang Yan was sitting at the table smoking and drinking. After listening to the cautious Leo's report on the current situation in Sicily, he nodded and said: "Well done, Leo, have you made arrangements at home? We have The contact is almost complete, and your family will be the first ones to come by then."
Leo nodded quickly: "Everything is ready, you can come over at any time."
It's not that he had any other ideas, he was simply afraid of death. Although he also relied on killing people to gain trust from his predecessor, he was extremely afraid of the unpredictable and elusive Wang Yan. He knew that Wang Yan didn't trust anyone and would definitely replace them. Substitution is acceptable, but what he cannot accept is that he will die if he goes down. This is too terrible. As a friend who shared the same adversity, it was true that he had not tried to persuade Zoltan and Magnus, but they were just honest for a while, and then they got carried away, so they died.
It didn't matter that the two of them were dead. He was so frightened that he didn't dare to sleep for several days. He kept thinking about what was wrong with him. It wasn't until he was frightened for a few days and found that Wang Yan had no intention of touching him that he relaxed. But to relax is to relax, and to be more cautious in doing things. Absolutely follow what Wang Yan says, and never make any own decisions, even if it is better. He was afraid that one day Wang Yan would not like him and find a reason to kill him.
Seeing his appearance, Wang Yan shook his head and said, "Leo, don't be so afraid. As long as you are honest and obedient and don't do anything to disappoint me, nothing else matters. You know, I'm very easy to talk to."
Leo waved his hands quickly with a serious look on his face: "You misunderstood, sir, I'm not afraid. It's just that you know me, I've always been like this. I don't have much ambition, I just want to see my family in harmony. It would be nice to see my children grow up healthy, get married and have children. Really, sir, that’s how I am.”
Wang Yan knew that the foreign devil was frightened and could not tell the truth. However, Leo still has some abilities. At least he pretends to be "Tang" very well and handles other affairs quite well. So even though he is a mascot, he has rights, but he just doesn't dare to move.
"That's it. You should be tired after traveling for so long. Go and have a rest. Take a look at your future home and decorate it properly."
Leo nodded, humbly clinked glasses with Wang Yan, drank all the wine, then turned around and wiped the sweat from his forehead and left, walking a little faster.
The Corleone family also lives in Long Beach, but their Long Beach is certainly more luxurious than Wang Yan's Long Beach. Although they are both on Long Island, it's still half an hour's drive away. He bought a small piece, while the Corleone family bought a large piece.
The seat of the Corleone family was built more like a small fortress. There are high black walls surrounding the building complex, and the pointed roofs can be vaguely seen in the distance. There are patrolling gangsters outside, and the top is heavily guarded.
After the name was announced at the door and the hooligan on guard called inside, the two heavy iron doors slowly opened. The younger brother stepped on the accelerator and drove Wang Yan in.
