As night falls, the bar gradually becomes lively.
Cigarettes, alcohol, music, and the bustling crowd were filled with the smell of luxury, extravagance, and debauchery. An Yi saw a red figure surrounded by countless men.
These men were all dressed in suits and looked like gentlemen, but An Yi knew exactly what they were thinking.
All he was thinking about was how to get the woman in front of him into bed.
Faced with this situation, Marissa seemed to be at ease. She seemed to have a quality that allowed her to take care of everyone's emotions. She was indeed the flower of the night scene.
As if she felt An Yi was observing her, Marissa turned her head to look at An Yi. When their eyes met, Marissa gave An Yi a charming smile, then turned around and continued chatting with other men.
This woman is seducing.
......
A nightclub somewhere in the south of the city.
The situation inside was much more chaotic than that of the Bunny Girl Bar, with deafening music, swaying bodies, and the air filled with a strong smell of lust. There were even people openly smoking cocoa powder in the booths.
This is a Mexican nightclub.
Dani brought Burstein in and took a look at the environment here. It was like a chaos of demons, and his heart was full of contempt.
Cursed the South Americans.
In a private room, Dani met Nemesio, the Mexican gang boss.
Nemesio is in his forties, not tall but strong, with tanned skin. He started stealing cars when he was a teenager, and started robbing when he was older. He has been in prison several times. Because of his fierce fighting, he gradually became the boss of a Mexican gang, and the outside world gave him a nickname called "Squidward".
“Hiss~!”
Nemesio took a deep breath of the powder on the table, closed his eyes and enjoyed it comfortably for a while, then opened his eyes and looked at Dani.
"Dani, I didn't expect you to come to me. I still remember that you took away a lot of my cocoa powder business."
Nemesio said arrogantly.
Dani just smiled faintly, "Nemesisio, those are just small businesses. I have a bigger business to discuss with you now. What do you think? Are you interested?"
"What business?" Nemesio became interested.
"The Jews occupy the most territory, which is also the best and richest neighborhood. A few days ago, the Jews helped kill our people. I am ready for revenge and have already united with the Irish to divide up the Jewish territory. Do you want to join in?" Dani said.
Nemesio immediately became interested. "The Irish agreed?"
"Of course."
"How much benefit can I get?" Nemesio asked.
“Thirty percent.”
Nemesio pouted, "No, I want 60%."
"The Irish are stronger than you, I'll give them 40%." Dani said.
Dani was lying. He promised the Irish 60%, but he has been lying to people, including the Irish and the Mexicans in front of him.
Nemesio curled his lips and said, "They are strong, that's not necessarily the case. The Irish only have 200 members, and I can easily gather thousands of them."
In fact, everyone knows that many of the thousands of people mentioned by Nemesio are gangsters or even Mexican poor illegal immigrants, and their fighting power cannot be compared with that of the Irish.
Dani pretended to think for a while, and finally made up his mind, "Okay, I agree, but you have to do more."
Nemesio felt victorious and nodded with a smile, "No problem, what are you going to do?"
"I'll let you know what to do when the time comes," Dani said.
"Okay, I'll wait for your notice."
Leaving the noisy Mexican nightclub, Dani took a breath of fresh air outside. After getting in the car, Dani said disdainfully: "What a bunch of dirty Mexican pigs."
Burstein looked at Dani and said, "I have already negotiated with the Russians and Poles. They are very willing to participate in our operation. The Tang people said that their leader has not returned yet, and there is no one in charge to negotiate with us."
Dani narrowed his eyes and thought for a while, "Are the Tang people deliberately avoiding meeting with us? Never mind, we have already contacted so many companies, it doesn't matter if the Tang people are missing, as long as they don't make trouble."
"When are you going to officially start?" Burstein asked.
"Don't worry. I still have to meet with two congressmen and the sheriff. After all, there will be some minor chaos in Los Angeles later, and they will be needed to maintain order."
Dani smiled.
"But before that, we can do some small actions."
......
In the early morning,
The guests in the pub gradually dispersed, and An Yi, Sean and Reid drove away, sending An Yi home first.
"You don't have to pick me up tomorrow, I'll drive there by myself." An Yi said to Sean.
Bill's Ford is comfortable and usable.
The guns I bought today have been put away separately. The two M1911s are placed under the sofa, and the revolver is carried with me.
As for the pistol,
The Johnson rifle was in the truck, the Chicago typewriter was in the storage room, and the Winchester Model 1887 shotgun was in the trunk of the Ford.
The next day,
An Yi drove over, met up with Sean and the others, and went to the warehouse to pick up the goods for distribution, repeating yesterday's work.
Today is the weekly bill collection day. After Sean finished the calculation, Anyi calculated it again to avoid any mistakes in the accounts.
"Joan, you can do accounting too?" Sean was a little surprised that An Yi knew how to do accounting.
It is 1945, and education is not universal. Even though many people can read, not many can do accounting.
An Yi had done business before, so these cashiering skills were not difficult for him at all.
After collecting the accounts, a total of more than 20,000 US dollars, we drove to the headquarters to settle the accounts. It was An Yi's first time to come to the headquarters. It was completely like a company, and many people came to settle accounts.
An Yi settled the accounts and found a profit of more than one thousand dollars. This profit was An Yi's income.
"How do you divide it on weekdays?" An Yi asked.
"Usually Bill takes 40%, and Ryder and I split the rest," Sean said.
An Yi thought for a moment and said, "I think Bill should have a share. What do you think?"
"I agree," Sean said.
"I agree." Reid nodded.
An Yi simply divided the money equally, with each person getting 25%.
An Yi had no intention of taking advantage of the money. Sometimes he would give his subordinates a bigger share to make them feel respected, so that they would work harder, or even be loyal to him.
After finishing all this, they continued to go to the nightclub to check out the scene.
For a few days,
An Yi is already thoroughly familiar with the business process.
It went very smoothly.
A few days later, when they went to deliver the wine, they suddenly heard the news that a tavern had been robbed. There was a big commotion and even the tavern owner was shot and injured by the robbers.
......
Tuscany Winery is located on Melrose Street. It is an Italian winery with a history of more than ten years. The owner is called Dante.
The pub does good business on weekdays.
One day, two guests had a few drinks and suddenly pulled out guns and fired two shots at the ceiling, scaring the guests so much that they fell to the ground one after another.
The two guys pointed guns at the cashier and demanded he hand over the money.
The cashier was trembling as he took out the money. The boss, Dante, was not far away. He saw the robbers took all the money and felt very distressed. He shouted to the two robbers who were about to leave: "This is the territory of the Jewish gang. The Jewish gang will not let you go."
“Bang~!”
One of the robbers stopped, turned around and suddenly fired a shot, hitting the tavern owner in the thigh.
“Ah~~!”
Dante fell to the ground howling.
The two robbers took away several hundred dollars.
Afterwards, the Jewish gang leader in charge of Melrose Street went there, but the two robbers had already disappeared.
There is no way to trace it.
Because of the robbery and shooting, customers felt that the pub was unsafe, and almost no customers dared to come the next day.
Therefore, some very bad noises have appeared in the street in recent days, saying that the Jewish gang only knows how to collect protection fees but cannot protect the safety of the tavern's business.
When An Yi and Sean were delivering the goods, the owner of a tavern asked about this matter, "Joan, the Jewish Gang can protect our safety, right?"
