Chapter 8: Chinatown and Hongmen
"I want to ask you to shelter me for a while, at least until my men recover." Looking at the stick in Angelo's hand, Alexei could only tell the truth.
Angelo stared into his eyes for a long while without speaking. When the bald-headed man was a little hairy, he slowly said, "Yes, but you'd better not expand under my banner during this time."
The reason why Alexei came to seek refuge in himself was actually his own reason. Yesterday, he injured all his core strength, almost all core members.
It's not Our Lady Angelo. Of course he doesn't like these gangsters, but he doesn't want to kill them too much, because if a gangster wants to be annexed, there will definitely be a large-scale shootout. In a hellish place like Hell's Kitchen, who knows what kind of heavy firearms Alexei, an arms dealer, would bring out if he wanted to break the bank, even if he took out a depleted uranium bomb, Angelo would not be surprised.
So, the best way is to maintain stability.
In addition, I really need Alexei to build bridges with the people of Hongmen, even if I give the other person a favor.
He had only heard of this Chinese organization and had never contacted it. It would save a lot of money if Alexei was willing to bridge the gap.
"Thank you, Mr. Pastor." Alexei breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Angelo agree. He had no doubt that if Angelo didn't agree to protect him, he might walk down this street and be unknowingly. Which corner of the black gun killed.
Soon, one of his subordinates drove a bus to the door of the church, and Angelo motioned the women in the corner to get on the bus.
Alexey dragged the black gangster who was driving over from the car, told him something in his ear, and then sat in the driver's seat and waited for the women to finish boarding.
This is what Angelo told these women yesterday and sent them out of Hell's Kitchen this morning.
Most of the women had boarded the car, and there were only nine Chinese women left at the entrance of the church, still standing there unwilling to move.
Angelo walked over with a frown, and said softly, "Get in the car. I'll take you out of here."
The nine Chinese women looked at each other and looked at each other. One of the women who seemed to be the leader stood up. It was the woman who came out to ask him for hot water yesterday.
"Mr. Angelo, we want to stay and can help you. We actually have nowhere to go, our family..."
Angelo waved his hand impatiently and interrupted her, "Do you have any place to go to have anything to do with me? My task is to get you out of here."
The woman bit her lip stubbornly, and said in a low voice, "We can stay and help you. A church as big as yours needs nuns, and definitely needs service personnel. We can clean up..."
Looking at the stubborn woman in front of him with a funny look, Angelo shook his head, cleaning? Is it because my skeleton warrior is not doing well or is the skeleton warrior trying to talk to me about a raise? Those skeletons don't have lawyers!
He doesn't have to drive these women away, it's good to add some popularity to the church, but the environment of Hell's Kitchen is really not suitable for these women, here is either shooting or shooting every day, and even RPGs can be taken out in street gunfights. ?
"Didn't you say you can work?" Angelo jokingly pointed to the weeds in the church yard that were close to the height of an adult, "You plough the ground here, and I promise you to stay. If you can't do it, you will Leave immediately."
In Angelo's view, these women are not bad, with long legs and melon-seeded faces, at least 65 points or more. These women do not say that they are spoiled as princesses by those hungry men in the outside world, but they are absolutely Can't do this kind of work. Even if the United States is a country that pays attention to equal rights between men and women, it is just changing the name of women from the disadvantaged group - gentleman!
But to his surprise, these women glanced at the grass in the yard, turned around and went back to the yard, picked up the tools by the wall without saying a word, and started to work.
This…
Angelo looked a little demented at the scene in front of him, what the **** is this brain? Did you really go ploughing? Can't these women see that they are just trying to drive them away?
After being stunned for a moment, Angelo shook his head, turned around and got on the bus and ignored them.
Do they really think they have done these rough jobs? Maybe they will complain after a while, but forget it, let them give up. The big deal is to wait a while to come back and send them back.
Alexey glanced at Angelo thoughtfully, but without speaking, he started the bus and headed for Chinatown.
In fact, Angelo should be regarded as a member of the chaotic and kind camp. When his own interests are not damaged, he does not care to help others, but he is definitely not a virgin who sacrifices himself for others.
Although he always says that he doesn't care, it's none of my business, but in fact, he is still working hard to keep the last bit of humanity in his heart and not be swallowed by desire, otherwise, according to the current power, he can choose to become a dictator of the earth. .
At this time, no one on earth could beat him, not even the United States that was still frozen in the Arctic.
When approaching Chinatown, Angelo, who had been silent since he got in the car, asked Alexei, "What did you tell your subordinates just now?"
Alexey saw that Angelo's mood was fluctuating, and he drove the car carefully, without shaking his wit, but answered honestly, "I asked him to go back and publicize that I was sheltered by you recently, of course, I asked him to tell It's just before my men come out of the hospital recovering from their injuries."
Angelo was a little dumbfounded by him. It was a thousand miles away from the gangster he imagined. The gang leader in his imagination should be a godfather type like Marlon Brando. Looks like a joker?
Um... more like Star-Lord?
"Do you know Star Lord?"
"I don't know, who is that?"
"A stupid X."
Angelo shook his head, looking at Chinatown outside the car window and no longer thinking about these troubles.
Alexey silently took the name Star-Lord in his heart and marked it with a silly X.
The car stopped in front of a Chinese-style building in Chinatown. Alexei jumped out of the cab, and a group of Chinese people walked out of the door to greet him, led by a middle-aged man wearing glasses and a Tang suit. bald.
"Hey! Guoxiang Zhou!" Alexei hugged the middle-aged man named Zhou Guoxiang, then pointed to the bus behind him, "This is the girl my boss asked me to send."
Angelo who was on the side hurried forward when he heard this, and let this **** say more. These women would have to just leave the wolf's den and enter the tiger's den, UU reading www.uukanshu. com said in fluent Chinese, "Hello Mr. Zhou, I'm not his boss. My name is Angelo Li. These women were kidnapped by the gangsters in Hell's Kitchen. I'm here to ask for your help. They go back to normal life."
Except for a few Eastern European women, these people are basically of Chinese descent, so there is nothing wrong with sending them to Hongmen. The only support Hongmen can get in Chinatown is to help local Chinese in the United States.
Zhou Guoxiang looked at the young man of mixed ethnic Chinese in front of him. His fluent Chinese made him feel good, and he seemed to have a little domestic northern accent.
He nodded approvingly, "Well, Mr. Li, I thank you for these people. I will arrange for my subordinates to help them settle down."
Angelo shook his head, "It's nothing, this is what I should do, they are all compatriots."
As soon as these words came out, Zhou Guoxiang was even more satisfied with this young man, and he patted An Qiluo on the shoulder and smiled, "Young man, I heard that you are very good. If there is any trouble that cannot be solved in the future, you can come here. Find me in Chinatown, as long as I am here, no one can touch you in Chinatown!"
Angelo smiled and agreed. Although he said that if he couldn't solve the trouble by his own force, the other party would definitely not be able to solve it, but this kind of recognition from his compatriots still made him extremely satisfied.
After a brief handover of personnel, Angelo and Alexei rejected Zhou Guoxiang's retention and left directly by bus. Angelo wanted to go back and bring the nine women who refused to leave.
Of course, before leaving, he also told Zhou Guoxiang that he wanted to hire a Chinese chef, and asked him to help him pay attention to it. He has had enough of those bad craftsmanship of skeletons! It's only a little bit stronger than the starry sky of the country!
