The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 194 Aaron: I am best at negotiating business
The next morning, Bernie and Sig moved directly into the house.

The two did not want to be promoted. Getting a bonus was one thing, but getting promoted was another. One can imagine how they would be treated in the Irish circle.

Everyone will regard them as traitors, and they might even be beaten to death by someone who breaks into their homes.

However, they couldn't resist Chen Zhengwei's "persuasion" and had no choice but to get promoted.

Finally I had no choice but to agree.

After noon, the weather became a little warmer, but the sun was not very bright.

Yan Qingyou was wearing a black coat and a fedora hat like Chen Zhengwei, with a cigarette in his mouth, and followed by a dozen people.

Ever since Chen Zhengwei started wearing this soft hat, others have followed suit and started wearing this kind of hat.

Especially since this type of hat is easier to match and more casual than a bowler hat.

Originally, the hat was named after the heroine Fedora in a play.

Now that drama has not yet appeared, but many of Chen Zhengwei's men are wearing it. People at the port call it the Chinese soft hat, and some people privately call it the thug hat.

Yan Qingyou entered Kinmen Freight and randomly asked an employee: "Where is your person in charge?"

When the other party saw Yan Qingyou, even if he couldn't recognize his appearance, he could recognize his clothes and quickly called the person in charge over.

"Sir, what can I do for you?"

"Call these people on the paper over and lay them off." Yan Qingyou threw a piece of paper to him.

The person in charge saw the name on the paper and asked carefully, "Can I ask why?"

Yan Qingyou glanced at him and said, "Why, you don't know? Even if you don't know now, you will know in a while."

The person in charge looked at the list and had some guesses in his mind.

He had known this day would come.

Sooner or later someone will tell on us.

But these rude workers who are always drunk, causing trouble and swearing deserve it.

More than half an hour later, the person in charge asked someone to call all the workers on the list.

More than 20 people who had just been unloading cargo at the dock came over covered in sweat and dust, and as soon as they entered the door they shouted, "Jack, what do you want us for?"

Then I saw Yan Qingyou sitting on one side, and a dozen people around Yan Qingyou leaning on the table.

My heart suddenly skipped a beat.

I have a bad feeling!
"You are laid off... Here are your wages..." Jack, the person in charge, was afraid of conflicts, so he asked the finance department to calculate their wages.

"No, you can't fire us! Chinese, do you hear me? You can't!" The man who was leading the group suddenly felt a surge of anger and shouted at Yan Qingyou.

"You know why we fired you. You cursed Brother Wei and Chinese people behind their backs. The reason why I didn't beat you to death is because Brother Wei is kind-hearted!" Yan Qingyou said grimly.

"Don't let me see you in the port area anymore! Otherwise, I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

If laying them off before made them angry, not allowing them to make a living in the port area almost made them lose their minds.

The big man was about to rush forward.

Yan Qingyou stood up and stood in front of him, his eyes full of ferocity: "Come on, come on! What do you want to do? Do you want to die?"

The men behind him also reached for their waists.

But he didn't pull out a gun, but two short knives from his waist.

The moves that Lin Changning had asked Li Xiwen to teach were first taught to A'long's men, and then to others.

In addition, the two blacksmith shops in Chinatown worked day and night, so many people switched to using short knives.

After all, most of the time you don't need to use a gun.

The big man stared at Yan Qingyou angrily, but finally kept his sanity and was pulled away by other Irish people.

A group of Irish people took their wages and left angrily.

In addition to anger, there is also anxiety and uneasiness.

Apart from working hard at the docks, they can only try to find work in factories, but it is not easy to find a job now.

"What a bunch of rubbish!" Yan Qingyou spat on the ground and said to the person in charge, Jack, "Bring Bernie and Sig to the team leader."

The person in charge nodded. It seemed that they were the two who informed on the matter.

A moment later, another group of Chinese people came outside. These were Chinese workers who were arranged here. There were nearly a hundred people in total, and they were all arranged to work in the freight company.

"Arrange them well. If anything goes wrong, I will cause trouble for you!" Yan Qingyou said to Jack, and then took his people out.

"Brother You!"

"Brother You!"

When the Chinese workers saw Yan Qingyou, they all greeted him quickly.

"Okay, everyone, do your work well! If you have any trouble, tell me! We are all from the same village, with the same skin color and eyes, so we should help each other and take care of each other!" Yan Qingyou said to everyone.

The group of Chinese workers expressed their gratitude profusely, and Yan Qingyou was in a good mood when he left.

After all, it's always good to be respected.

Now they have finally made a name for themselves, and they are no longer bullied, not only in Chinatown but also in the entire San Francisco.

Not only will they not be bullied, but even the Chinese will not be bullied.

A few days ago, Brother Wei asked the Chinese workers who had wives and children in China to write letters home and bring their wives and children over.

He also specially asked someone to write a letter to the village and call the young and strong people in the village over.

It's definitely better here with their care than staying in the country.

Moreover, they also need help from people in the same village and with the same surname, so that they can feel at ease when their own people are using the equipment.

"Let's find a place to have a cup of tea..." Yan Qingyou walked for a while and then took people to find a coffee shop.

In addition to coffee, most coffee shops here also sell black tea. If you add a little milk, it's okay once you get used to it. He was drinking tea here, while A-Long was talking about business on the other side.

"From now on, you can load and unload the goods and leave the business to us! The price is the same as other companies, and there will be no problems!" Aaron was playing with a bullet on the table.

Stand the bullet upright, then flick it down with your finger, and the direction the bullet will fall is exactly the opponent's boss.

The other party was a foreigner. Looking at Aaron's bald head and the bullets on the table aimed at him, he did not dare to attack even though he knew that the other party was threatening him.

After all, there have been bloody lessons before, and this lesson is not the first time.

Now, except for the two large shipyards at the port, no one else dares to provoke these Chinese.

"Fifty percent... I have a contract with others. Three months at most. When the contract is over, those businesses will be handed over to you!"

"Happy cooperation! Don't worry, if you have any problems with your goods in this port, come to me. Even if your goods are stolen, as long as they are still in San Francisco, we can get them back for you!" Aaron put away the bullet and stretched out his hand to the other party with a smile.

"Sounds good!" The foreigner breathed a sigh of relief.

What he fears most is that the other party will force him.

"I'll have the people from Kinmen Freight contact you later!" Aaron shook hands with the other party and led his people away.

After leaving the house, he smiled and said to the henchmen beside him: "So Brother Wei said that I am a talent for development. What I am best at is negotiating business and expanding the market!"

"It's easy, isn't it?"

"Which one is next? Weeks Shipyard? Are you talking about the ironworks business? Let's go!"

Although A-Long didn't know much about this, it didn't matter. The way to negotiate business was similar. He would just wait until he had made the deal and let the people from the iron factory come to contact him.

……

Later, the news spread that more than twenty dock workers were laid off and that Bernie and Sig were promoted.

There was something wrong with the way those Irish people looked at the two of them.

The look was like a knife, making both of them walk with heavy steps and feel heavy.

At the same time, the remaining people began to panic, wondering if anyone else would report it.

After all, almost all of them have cursed the Chinese, and since no one reported it, they could still barely maintain unity.

Now that someone has taken the lead, others have also begun to struggle in their hearts.

After all, no one wants to be unemployed just like that, especially in the current economic downturn, and no one knows how long it will take to find the next job.

They have almost no savings, and unemployment means going hungry.

In this case, they don't have much choice.

That night, more than a dozen people found Yan Qingyou.

There is no need to take him to see Chen Zhengwei this time.

Yan Qingyou wrote down some names and gave each of them 100 yuan. After they left, he sneered, "This is the foreigner!"

Now thinking back to how the Chinese in Chinatown were being oppressed by these foreigners, he felt that he was really fucking stupid.

But thinking about what Chen Zhengwei had done, he felt that only Chen Zhengwei could do that.

……

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Duccio invites you to attend the family dinner at Christmas!" The two Italians held their hats in their hands and bowed slightly to Chen Zhengwei.

“Here’s an invitation!”

Chen Zhengwei took the invitation from the table and looked at it.

The message was polite, inviting him to a family party in Ferro at Christmas.

"Thank Duccio for my invitation! Tell him I will be there on time."

This kind of banquet was previously attended by the Ferro family and the heads of their affiliated families, such as the Jacopo family and the Fabio family.

This year there is one more invitee, their new allies, the Chinese.

Chen Zhengwei felt that the Italians were much more sincere about the alliance than the Jews.

Although many times, Italians are bad teammates.

But Chen Zhengwei thinks the Italian Mafia should be more reliable than the Italian government...

perhaps.

"By the way, why do you have to tell me this at night?" Chen Zhengwei suddenly remembered something.

The two Italians were a little confused.

"You are the mafia, and you are not allowed to go out and do things just because you are evil!" Chen Zhengwei said with a smile.

The two Italians seemed to have heard a funny joke and smiled, then said goodbye and left.

When he returned home at night, Chen Zhengwei opened his door and took a look, then opened Lin Changning's door and carried her up.

Lin Changning struggled as always.

Chen Zhengwei patted her on the butt and said, "When I'm not at home, you light the fireplace in my room, and when I come home, you hide in your room. Do you think I don't know?"

Lin Changning twisted his body and slid behind Chen Zhengwei, and was dragged back to the room by Chen Zhengwei by his calves.

After a while, Lin Changning calmed down a little when he was held in Chen Zhengwei's arms.

"Accompany me to the Italian Christmas dinner the day after tomorrow!"

Lin Changning hummed softly.

Then he felt Chen Zhengwei's hand moving around dishonestly, which made Lin Changning feel a little hot, but he still guarded the last step tightly and would bite if provoked.

Unless Chen Zhengwei marries her.
