CHAPTER 113: CHAPTER 57: WHY DON’T YOU LAUGH? (PART 2)

"Can you contact Chinatown?"

"I can’t threaten the Triad, nor can I make Wang yield his interests unless I offer him more."

Natasha looked at Sofia expectantly.

"Don’t do that, it’s useless, no matter how much I give, Wang is a ravenous wolf. This is an unsolvable problem, and I don’t have enough new markets to offer Wang.

In Miami, this Sin City, all markets are clearly divided, every gang, every organization has its own territory. Between them, there’s either cooperation or war. Johnny’s demands are undoubtedly a warning and threat, and can only lead to war. This is an answer long given.

If I offer the club market to the Triad, Johnny will only become angrier."

"God. It’s deliberate."

"That’s right, Johnny is deliberate."

"Son of a bitch!" Natasha glared at Johnny in the hall, "Why doesn’t Kenny refuse?"

"He can’t refuse, because Johnny is the leader."

Sofia continued looking downstairs, without worry but with a smile instead, "Now, our dear little Kenny has thoroughly understood the mafia’s rules."

Yes, from my provocations, he understands that I have independent ideas.

"Rules?" Natasha didn’t understand what Sofia was talking about.

"This is exactly what I want!" Sofia finished the glass of red wine, seeming in a good mood.

Johnny was in a similarly good mood, though his expression didn’t match his mood.

Johnny looked angry, his arm came down from the bar, knocking a bottle of whiskey onto the floor. Bang, the bottle shattered, the liquor flowing across the floor.

Everyone could feel Johnny’s rage.

"Why didn’t you follow my orders?" Orders, Johnny made clear, this was his will, emphasizing that I was merely his subordinate.

Weakening my influence.

"I talked to Wang, he said I wasn’t qualified."

I helplessly spread my hands, smiling.

"You represent the Johnny Clan, doesn’t he know?" Johnny stood up, walked over to me, his gaze cold.

"He refused."

Wang, of course, refused, because I couldn’t make promises, and couldn’t represent Johnny, making me negotiate was a trap.

"Refuse? Kenny, I’m very disappointed in you."

Johnny turned back to the bar, a smile playing at his lips, "Alright, I’ll talk to him, I’ll guarantee everyone’s interests."

The eyes of every gang member focused on Johnny.

Guaranteeing everyone’s interests, making everyone follow him, establishing his rulership.

At the same time, my failure also hit my reputation.

Johnny wasn’t impulsive; he was smarter than anyone.

"But Kenny, you really disappoint me, PINK is very important to our clan. Now, I’m doubting if my decisions are correct."

Haha!

I picked up a cigar and looked at it, "I don’t like cigars, they don’t suit me." I tossed the cigar into an ashtray and took out my own cigarette, "Did I do poorly?"

"I’m questioning your capability."

"So what do you plan for me to do?"

"I plan to send you to Dade County. I’m preparing to expand the clan’s territory."

Fack!

Expand?

Johnny wants to expand?

Amir clenched his fists, Dade County?

There’s nothing there, no manpower, no support, no territory.

To take over new footholds, conflicts with local organizations will occur.

This is sending us to die!

The club’s beverage business has taken off, now making Amir and them give it up, it’s like destroying their enterprise.

"No!" Amir shouted, "What’s wrong with us failing in negotiations, you want us to leave?"

"Amir, are you questioning me? I will provide you support."

Support? That’s a joke.

Amir understood, if there was a gunfight, they’d be long dead.

This is a disguised abandonment, also using other crime organizations’ strength to kill them.

"No, I won’t leave."

"You can stay, then Kenny will go alone."

Damn it!

Amir turned back to look at me.

The other members showed strange expressions.

Going alone?

Alone on gang-filled streets to fight them?

Finally revealing your intention?

I looked at Johnny with satisfaction. Lit a cigarette, quietly smoked.

"No, you can’t do this?" Amir shouted.

Johnny walked over, raised his hand, backhanded slapped Amir’s face.

"I can! Remember, I’m the clan leader, no one can question my decisions, these are our rules. Doing poorly requires adjusting his work. Now, I think you’re not suited for the club, you’re too impulsive, you go with Kenny."

Fack!

Amir rubbed his cheek, clenched his fist, just about to do something, a hand rested on his shoulder.

I stopped the impulsive Amir, going against Johnny now would be looking for death.

We’re surrounded by his people. We’d be shot dead!

"I haven’t completed my work, you doubt my capability?"

"I have high expectations for you, but you let me down. I trust you Kenny, but you need more experience. Now go to Dade County, you can learn more."

Haha!

A pretext, I’m your trusted one, so to train me, send me to die?

Marvelous.

Johnny is a hypocritical guy; doing it like this earns him reputation.

"What if I complete the task?"

"WHAT?"

"What if I reach an agreement?"

"If you achieve it, you’re the clan’s merit earner."

"I failed, leave downtown, it’s a punishment, what’s there for success?"

WHAT?

Everyone focused their eyes on me.

"Did Kenny reach an agreement?"

"Impossible. The Chinese won’t sacrifice their interests for us."

"Wang is a cold guy, he won’t be swayed by Kenny."

Clan members discussed softly.

Johnny wasn’t worried, "Did Wang reach a verbal agreement with you?"

"No!"

Haha!

Johnny laughed happily, holding a wine glass, slowly walking to me, "Since not, you want rewards? Haha, Kenny, you’re interesting. Alright, if you succeed, I’ll let you continue managing PINK, you can independently run your business, just need to give 20% profits to the clan! Satisfied?"

"Very satisfied."

"Hahaha!" Johnny handed me the wine glass, "But you must do it. I need Wang’s agreement! Do you have it?"

"No!"

Johnny’s expression turned serious, "So, you’re playing me?"

"No!"

I picked up my phone and sent a message.

Soon, a group of Chinese appeared in the club hall.

He walked over in a suit, with seven henchmen.

Seeing me, his expression became complicated, somewhat happy, because I made him the leader of Miami’s Chinatown.

He harbored anger because his interests were tied to me, threatened by me.

"Who are you?" Johnny frowned, looking at this uninvited crowd.

Surrounding clan members also stood up, coldly watching them.

"I’m He from Chinatown, He Nianzu, today, I’ve come to reach an agreement with Kenny. From now on, Dragon Hall will not sell ice to any organization in the Upper East Side."

"Reach an agreement? What about Wang?" Johnny asked nervously.

"Dead!"

"WHAT?" Dead? Everyone showed expressions of astonishment.

"Died of drowning last night, I am now the leader of Dragon Hall."

Fack! Johnny looked at me furiously, "You completed the agreement?"

"Yes." I smiled ruefully.

"But you said no."

"You asked if I reached an agreement with Wang, unfortunately, I didn’t, I was honest."

"Mother fucker! You didn’t say Wang was dead."

"You didn’t ask that."

"Fack!"

"Boss, aren’t you happy? I reached an agreement!"

My smile was like a knife stabbing into Johnny’s chest.

"I’m very happy!" Johnny restrained his anger, adjusting his mood.

"Why not smile?" I was genuinely sincere; you should be happy.

Son of a bitch!
