LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 16
"Okay, now that there is no one else, let's talk about how the transaction went this time." The moon was at the top of the sky, and Anthony's younger brothers and sisters were asleep. Looking out the window at the night view of Manhattan, New York, James poured two glasses of red wine. Anthony asked, handing a glass to him.
Anthony took the red wine, looked at James with a serious face, smiled, raised one hand in a gesture of surrender and said: "Okay, I admit, something went wrong with this transaction. It seems that something happened to our mysterious big buyer." There is a problem, so we can’t continue trading for the time being. But it doesn’t matter, we have better gains.”
"Oh" James became curious. He must know that he had seen the treasures in the secret room with his own eyes. Even selling a small part would be a huge fortune that he had never dared to imagine before. Now his son actually says there is a better deal, what could it be?
Anthony stopped pretending and opened the box he was carrying, revealing a stack of photocopied documents. He then handed it to his father and said, "Let's take a look."
James took the file doubtfully and looked through it. Although many of the professional terms above are unclear, he can still understand things like effects. When he saw one of the pages, he showed the same expression as Anthony when he saw it: "Is everything on this page true? Have you verified it?"
"I have already verified it," Anthony smiled and nodded, his eyes showing excitement: "When the time comes, we will find a place to test it on patients with similar conditions to my mother, and then we can use it on my mother."
"Great," James yelled, shaking his fist in the sky happily.
James actually doesn't value money particularly, he values his family more. That's why when I heard that something happened to my wife, I was so irrational and was caught. So now when I heard that my wife, who was in a coma and even famous doctors couldn't do anything about it, might recover soon, I couldn't help but be as happy as a child.
After calming down, he read the documents in his hand carefully again. James looked up at Anthony with a solemn expression: "Are you sure that the things recorded in these documents and their effects are true? If nothing else, that's it. A repair solution that can speed up the healing of injuries, its effect is too exaggerated.”
Anthony nodded and said seriously: "Of course it's all true. I spent a lot of effort to get this."
"If they are all true, then there will be some trouble. You should understand what I mean, son," James put the documents and looked at Anthony and said.
Anthony took a glass of red wine and walked to the window, looking at the night view of Manhattan outside the window with deep eyes: "Of course I know that with our current strength, if this kind of thing flows out of our hands, the real people who are making the most of this country will be destroyed." The giant crocodile will swallow us directly, leaving no residue. So even if these things are rotten at the bottom of the warehouse, I will not take them out when I am not strong enough. Even the medicine that can cure my mother's disease, I will buy it. A small private hospital, find someone there to test it. There will definitely be no problem, don't worry, dad."
"That's best," James glanced at the document in the book again before locking it back in Anthony's trunk. Then he picked up a glass of red wine and came to Anthony's side. He put his arm around Anton's shoulders and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, son, your father is useless. The legacy he left for you is really too small. It makes you have to look forward and backward in everything you do. , You can’t maximize the benefits of what you get in the shortest time.”
"Stop saying that, Dad," Anthony patted his father's shoulder and comforted him: "The Nu Gang is very good. My starting point is already higher than that of many people. And the most important thing is that you gave me I have a perfect family.”
"Really, I feel much better if you say that." James and Anthony clinked their glasses and drank the red wine in one gulp. The father and son watched the night view of Manhattan together.
"Congressman Chris, it's been a long time since I last saw you, and you're still so energetic." After returning, Anthony, after finishing some trivial matters, began to attend some high-society drinking parties. There was no way he could maintain some official status in the world of American comics. relationship is quite important. In fact, Anthony himself is not interested in such high-society drinking parties. If possible, Anthony would actually prefer to spend time with his family at home.
Councilor Chris saw Anthony and said politely: "Anthony, it's been a long time since I last saw you. What have you been busy with recently?"
Although the Councilor Chris in front of him is just a New York City Councilman, his relationship still ruined a lot of Anthony's efforts. In addition to some necessary political donations and some political commitments, Anthony also used the ability to steal dreams to implant something beneficial to himself in his subconscious. Otherwise, he would be a New York City Councilman and would not pay attention to himself, the boss of a small or medium-sized gang in New York City.
"Recently, I am planning to acquire one or two private hospitals, and then set up a pharmaceutical company. Although the scale is not large, it can still create a few jobs for the city." Anthony continued with a smile on his face.
Then soon after being introduced by Councilor Chris, Anthony met several big figures in New York City's upper class society. However, although they smiled and chatted with Anthony for a few words for the sake of Councilor Chris, Anthony could see from their eyes that they were quite dismissive of people of Anthony's status.
"Come on, Anthony, let me introduce you. This is Mr. George Stacey, the new Deputy Commissioner of the New York City Police Department." I have to say that subconscious instructions are really powerful. Congressman Chris can give them to anyone. Anthony introduced that even the police chief introduced him to Anthony, the gang boss.
"Director George, it's an honor to meet you." Anthony smiled and extended his hand. By the way, why does his name sound so familiar? Stacey seems to be The Amazing Spider-Man’s girlfriend’s surname is Stacey, and her father seems to be a police officer as well. Could it be that he is the one in front of you?
Director George, out of respect for Councilor Chris, could only stretch out his hand to shake Anthony, the gang boss, but he quickly retracted it as if he had been touched by a poisonous snake, then said sorry with a gloomy face, and turned around to leave.
Anthony looked at his back with a smile and murmured: "Interesting, Spider-Man's father-in-law, we will meet again."
After chatting and laughing with familiar people at this high-end cocktail party for a while, and then making some symbolic donations to charity, Anthony, like everyone else, was seen off by Councilor Chris, the organizer of the charity evening, and left in his car. .
In the extended Lincoln sedan, Bullock reported to Anthony: "Boss, we have made arrangements here. The FBI agent named Mike should be able to close the net tonight."
"Oh, you can handle such a small matter yourself," Anthony said nonchalantly: "What I'm more concerned about is whether there is any action from Old John."
"I heard that he seems to be really negotiating with the Hand," Bullock replied.
Anthony couldn't help laughing after hearing this: "Old John is crazy for wanting to get involved in this business. He wants to pull teeth out of the Hand's mouth. The golf guy is not an easy person to talk to. It seems that there will be chaos in Brooklyn again in a few days."
Seeing that Bullock didn't seem to understand, Anthony put out his cigar and sneered: "He's dead."
