Five days later.
The subordinate reported to Dani that a Colombian wanted to see him. Dani said that the other party had finally come over, and he must ask what happened.
"Call him in quickly."
The visitor stood in front of Dani and said with an unkind expression: "General Gustavo asked me to bring you a few words."
"What are you talking about?"
"You have robbed our goods and killed our people, we will not let you go." The voice of the person who came was stiff, like an order to kill him.
Dani was shocked and said anxiously: "Why did I **** your goods? It was obviously your hands. The soldier I sent for the transaction died. All of my subordinates were killed and the 300,000 U.S. dollars that I took were robbed. I now suspect that you did it."
The guy shook his head.
"I don't know these. The general only asked me to notify you and pay 500,000 US dollars in compensation. There is still talk about this matter. If you don't agree, the general will send someone over. Mr. Dani will wait to accept our revenge."
Dani's heart was angry when he heard it.
Oh shit,
How did you push everything to me.
Now Dani wants to have a face-to-face meeting with General Gustavo to make the whole thing clear, even if he makes a phone call.
Unfortunately, it is 1946 and there is no international long distance to Colombia.
Ignore each other?
That General Gustavo was a very powerful general in the Colombian military. His subordinates control tens of thousands of troops. If you really send someone to kill yourself, your group of subordinates will definitely not be able to stop him.
But the other party wants 500,000.
Where can I get 500,000?
And this time I am also the victim.
Dani just feels very aggrieved.
Trying to suppress the anger in his heart, Dani said to Colombian humanity: "Please tell General Gustavo, there is a misunderstanding about this matter. I will go to Colombia to explain to him at the right time. Our business will continue and many things can be done. discuss."
The Colombian nodded, turned and left the office.
Dani sat down on the sofa.
reached for the cigar, the cigar trembling in his hand.
"Fake~!"
......
And at this moment, Hardy is sitting on the plane heading to Las Vegas.
He was going to see Siegel and send the proceeds of the robbery.
By the way, he still wants to talk to Siegel.
Hardy is thinking these days. He has chosen the road of the underworld, so he must go on this road.
If you want to grow and develop, you must have your own territory and some fixed income to feed more people.
Robbery alone will never work.
now in Los Angeles,
Irish territory is mainly concentrated in the old town.
The Jewish Gang is in a more developed new city.
The Spaniard is near Hollywood.
The Chinese are mainly concentrated near Chinatown and rarely do activities outside.
As for the other small gangs, it is not a climate at all.
Hardy has wondered these days that if he wants to have more power, he must have a suitable turf. The Irish turf is not good, and the Irish are very strong, which is the most difficult bone to gnaw.
Be the boss of the Jewish Gang?
Everywhere there is a talk about seniority, and the Jewish gang is under the control of the Mafia, and it has too much involvement. It is very difficult for him to become the boss.
Hardy fixed his eyes on the Spanish Gang.
Although the Spanish gang has a small site, he has a good location and controls the Hollywood area, and its development will only get better in the future.
If you destroy the Spanish Gang, seize their territory, and establish your own sphere of influence, his strength will be greatly improved.
There is no need to have too many disputes with the internal forces of the Jewish gang.
Next,
It depends on what Siegel thinks.
"Guys, we are about to land, are the seat belts fastened, let alone I didn't remind you, if you don't wear the seat belts, you may be thrown out when you land."
The pilot turned his head and shouted to a dozen guests behind him.
Hardy said heartily,
The current airline service attitude is really good.
The plane is small and can only carry eighteen or nine passengers.
The sky is very bumpy and the propeller noise is super loud. This kind of riding experience can only be described as bad.
But this is the fastest way to travel now.
From Los Angeles to Las Vegas, you can also drive. Take Interstate 15, 480 kilometers. It takes about half a day to drive.
You can also take the train, but the one is slower and the journey takes about 1 day.
Hardy checked his seat belt. He didn't want to be thrown out by the violent pilot.
咣当~!
咣咣咣当~!
After a violent shaking and clinking, the plane finally stopped. Just after Hardy got off the plane with the suitcase, a young man in a suit stepped forward, "Is it Mr. Jon Hardy?"
"it's me."
"Mr. Siegel sent me to pick you up. The car is here." The young man said.
Hardy looked at this young man, he now has a very strong memory, and he has some impressions of this young man in his mind. When he went to Siegel's house, he had seen him among the guards.
The two got in the car and drove towards downtown Las Vegas.
Hardy looked out the window, both sides were covered with earthy gray sand and gravel, and occasionally there were a few withered thatch, all deserted.
It didn't take long for the car to enter the city.
Hardy had been to Las Vegas in his previous life, the 21st century casino, with brilliant lights, high-rise buildings everywhere, and the hustle and bustle.
Now Las Vegas cannot be called a city at all in Hardy's eyes. It can be regarded as a small town at most, and the buildings are mainly concentrated on both sides of the highway.
In 1829, a group of Mexican merchants discovered the Las Vegas Basin with abundant water resources, named "LasVegas", which means "Fragrant Grassland" in Spanish.
A few decades later, gold mines were discovered in Nevada. The gold rush attracted a large number of people and Las Vegas became a small town.
The train broke through in 1905, and Las Vegas was one of the important nodes. It was upgraded to a city with a population of more than 3,000 people at that time.
During the Great Depression in the United States, Nevada passed a gambling legalization bill. A few years later, the Hoover Tower was completed, which provided plenty of electricity to the area. Then the highway linking Los Angeles was connected, allowing the area to develop rapidly.
Ok,
The so-called fast is that some tourists here come to gamble.
There are no more than 20,000 locals here, and no more than 50,000 tourists come every year. These figures were told by Siegel to Hardy.
And Siegel’s ideal is to build the most luxurious casino in the United States here, attracting 100,000 tourists to spend every year.
Although it is not as good as a town in the later generations in Hardy's eyes, he knows that the development here is amazing Years later, the population here reached 550,000, and the number of tourists at the peak exceeded 40 million. .
Although there is no gold here, in Hardy's view, this is a huge gold mine with abundant reserves.
There is inexhaustible gold.
Now there is only one main road, Las Vegas Street, on both sides of most of the two and three-story buildings, some small casinos and entertainment venues, behind them there is a large area of free land.
And these lands will be turned into buildings in the future. There is huge room for value-added. If you have money, you can buy a piece of land here without doing anything. In a few years, it is easy to guarantee that someone will buy it at a high price.
But I'm not in a hurry now.
The land in Las Vegas will appreciate, and we will have to wait for the success of Siegel’s casino, when everyone sees the huge benefits and flocks to invest.
The car stopped in front of a huge construction site.
The driver said to Hardy: "Mr. Hardy, Mr. Siegel is at the construction site, I will take you to find him inside."
Hardy followed the driver and saw Siegel in a clearing.
There is a huge parasol above his head, a round table and a few stools below, Siegel looks into the distance with his back hands.
"Mr. Seagal."
Hardy approached and called out.
Siegel turned to look at Hardy and said with a smile on his face, "Hadi, look at me here, it's so hot, and in the future there will be the most perfect casino in the United States and even the world."
Hardy looked in the direction Siegel pointed.
There is a wilderness, there are countless building materials piled up in the open space, and several bulldozers are working hard to shovel the earth, making the construction site dusty.
