The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 323 I Want to Hear Him Say Thank You

In front of a restaurant in Sacramento, a middle-aged man got off a carriage with a sad smile on his face.

He is Danny Page, the second son of Horatio Page.

His eldest brother died some time ago, which made him very sad.

But there is good news.

His factory was short of funds to expand, but now the funding problem has been solved.

Just sell the farms or mortgage them to the bank.

"Mr. Page!" In the restaurant, a lawyer quickly stood up after seeing Danny Page. Danny Page was his big client.

An hour later, Danny Page came out of the restaurant with satisfaction, but he bumped into someone as soon as he walked out the door.

Before Danny could even curse, he heard the other party's rude and angry words:
"Don't you have fucking eyes?"

"You bumped into me..." Danny frowned and looked at the other person, a man wearing somewhat dirty cowboy clothes and a cowboy hat.

He had only said half of his words when he saw the other party pull out a knife from his waist.

"What are you going to do? Wait!" Danny Page was frightened and stepped back subconsciously.

I cursed in my heart, these rude peasants.

However, before he could step back, the other party grabbed him.

"What's so great about being rich? Just because you're rich you don't have to apologize for hitting someone?" The rude and violent man stabbed Danny Page in the stomach, then pulled out the knife and stabbed it again, over and over again.

The people around were stunned.

Then someone screamed.

Some people also wanted to come up and stop it.

The rude and violent man stabbed more than ten times before angrily letting go, waving the dagger to force back the people around him, and then ran away.

"Hurry up and send him to the hospital!" There was a commotion at the restaurant entrance, but Danny Page was stabbed more than a dozen times and died before he could be taken to the hospital.

Before he died, his mind was confused.

He had no idea what happened, he just bumped into something.

When the people from the Investigation Bureau learned about the situation, especially the other party's identity, they felt their scalps tingling.

Moments later, the news reached Horatio Page’s home.

When the butler heard that Danny Page was stabbed to death on the street with more than ten knives, his face suddenly changed.

He looked around the room with some worry. Horatio Page was already old, and his eldest son had died a few days ago... This made his health not very good, and his hair turned all white.

This news……

It was not until the next morning that the butler hesitated again and again before speaking:

"Sir, something happened to Mr. Danny Page... He was stabbed on the street last night... He lost too much blood... He couldn't be saved..."

Horatio Page froze.

"Say it again!" Horatio Page looked at the butler with a fierce look.

"Mr. Danny Page..." the butler said in a low voice...

Horatio Page looked at the butler for a long time, and then suddenly fell down.

"Sir, sir! Go and call the doctor!"

It was not until a day later that Horatio Page woke up from his coma and stared blankly at the ceiling.

"Sir, I'm glad you woke up!"

"Didn't you tell me before that... Danny was dead?" Paige moved her eyes and looked at the butler next to her.

The butler nodded slightly.

Horatio Page looked as if he had aged twenty years, staring blankly at the rooftop.

Half a day later, Horatio Page suddenly said, "Someone is targeting me!"

"This is not a coincidence, nor is it an accident! Someone is targeting me! Targeting the Page family!"

Then he struggled to sit up like an angry lion.

He couldn't believe such a coincidence that his two sons were killed in just ten days.

There must be a hand behind this!

The question now is, who is this person who is targeting him? What is his purpose? What is their grudge?
"Where's Bud?"

Bud Page was his only surviving son.

In addition, he has two daughters, one married to a businessman in San Francisco and the other in Nevada.

……

"Another one died? How tragic!" Chen Zhengwei sighed as he looked at the newspaper.

Two people died in the Page family. How sad must the survivors be?
It’s unbearable to think about it.

But we can send them down to reunite them, so no one will be sad.

Chen Zhengwei felt that Horatio Page still owed him a thank you.

"Don't worry about the one in Nevada for now... The one in San Francisco will go to Sacramento to attend the funeral in a few days, right? After the funeral, kill her! Don't let the people below wait too impatiently." Chen Zhengwei put the newspaper aside.

"Has the train been arranged?" Chen Zhengwei asked.

"It has been arranged. It is arranged in the name of Mr. Jones!" Rong Jiacai said on the side.

Of course Chen Zhengwei couldn't make arrangements in his own name.

After he got on the train, his men would keep an eye on the staff on the train.

No one would know he had left San Francisco until he arrived in Chicago.

He brought nearly 450 people with him this time, including 220 Chinese. In addition to the people brought by Aaron, there were also Li Xiwen and his own bodyguards.

These bodyguards were carefully selected from among his men. Although they might not be very smart, they were all brave and loyal.

There is no other way. You need to be smart, loyal, and brave enough to fight... There are too few people like this.

Chen Zhengwei had already arranged for such a henchman to go out and do some work, so it would be a waste to keep him by his side to block bullets. Chen Zhengwei was able to do business to this day, and he relied entirely on himself.

Four hundred and fifty men, each carrying a Peace II revolver, which was newly produced, smaller than the previous ones, with a shorter barrel, and faster to draw.

At around twenty meters, the accuracy doesn't change much, but beyond twenty meters, the bullets will be random.

In addition, each person had a submachine gun, five magazines fully loaded with 20 rounds, and twenty boxes of bullets, each box containing 20 boxes, or 2000 rounds.

If any danger really occurred, Chen Zhengwei felt that he could defeat even the US army.

Chen Zhengwei picked up the two letters of introduction in front of him. They were given to him by Eysenck Smith. Chen Zhengwei could meet two important Republican members in Chicago.

With their introduction, it was much easier to open up the situation in Chicago.

……

Five days later, a woman wearing a black hat with a black veil left the cemetery in a carriage.

She is Page's second daughter and had just returned to Sacramento from San Francisco to attend the funeral.

She has attended two funerals in half a month.

This made her a little sad.

However, what surprised her even more was the warning from her housekeeper after she arrived in Sacramento.

Although Horatio Page didn't know who was targeting him, he still warned everyone in the family to be on high alert.

And you must bring bodyguards with you when you go out.

That night, gunshots were heard at a house in Sacramento, followed by a huge fire.

After investigation by the FBI, it was found that a total of nine people died in the house, including four bodyguards, a butler, a maid, a gardener, a coachman, and Horatio Page's second daughter.

When Horatio Page learned the result, he did not show much emotion.

But his eyes became even more fierce and gloomy.

He then ordered his young son not to go out, and then continued to visit other Republican members and Democratic lawmakers.

He was certain that someone was targeting him.

He had to find this person no matter what.

Then fight back!

……

"So you're not going to take me with you to Chicago?" Lin Changning stared at Chen Zhengwei.

"There has to be someone in charge in San Francisco, someone who can make the final decision! As for Sacramento, I was originally planning to hear that old guy say thank you to me in person!" Chen Zhengwei felt a little regretful.

It was such a shame that I couldn't hear Horatio Page say thank you to me in person.

"Go and listen for me when the time comes!"

"Who?"

"Horatio Page is the idiot who proposed the Page Act!" said Chen Zhengwei.

Lin Changning immediately knew who it was, and then looked at Chen Zhengwei fiercely: "Brother Bob is your man?"

"No!" Chen Zhengwei denied it flatly. What did that kind of gangster have to do with him? Then he smiled and said:

“But I’m invested in their business!”

"So the two and a half million dollars are in your hands? No wonder you don't care at all!" Lin Changning looked enlightened.

She knows Chen Zhengwei very well.

That's more than two million dollars. Brother Bob showed up in California, but Chen Zhengwei didn't care at all.

Soon she connected the dots.

"Don't talk nonsense. It's only 2.42 million, and the Bank of California still owes me 80,000!" Chen Zhengwei felt that he was being wronged.

No one could owe him money.

"Keep an eye on Sacramento. When the time comes, kill that old guy! I'll help him reunite his family, and I want to hear him say thank you!" Chen Zhengwei said.

Although Lin Changning is young and inexperienced, Chen Zhengwei is still relieved that she is in charge of the overall situation in San Francisco.

After all, Lin Changning was decisive and efficient in his actions, only slightly inferior to himself.

What's more, there are Rong Jiacai, Yan Qingyou and Chen Zhenghu.

In addition, there are 800 gunmen from security companies on Nob Hill, and several thousand more can be mobilized from the farm.

"If you really can't decide on something, just send me a telegram! I'll send you the address when I get to Chicago!"

"Okay!" Lin Changning nodded.

……

The next morning, Chen Zhengwei arrived in Auckland by boat with a dozen people in a low-key manner.

Next to him was Mary Gardner, who was going to New York to pursue her dream of becoming a ballet dancer.

It was already past the time for the train to depart, but the train was still motionless on the platform.

Some passengers looked over and saw the train staff and a dozen men in gentlemen's suits standing on the platform, seemingly waiting for someone.

After a long time, a carriage drove into the platform.

"boss!"

"Mr. Chen! Welcome to board the Pacific Railway Company's train. I believe this trip will bring you wonderful memories!"

The train conductor didn't even know who was coming.

However, after seeing the hundreds of fierce-looking German, Polish and Chinese youths who had boarded the train in advance, and then seeing the man in front of him, he could guess it.

"Did you say this to William Arlette before?" Chen Zhengwei suddenly remembered something and asked.

The driver's expression suddenly became embarrassed. They would say this to every distinguished guest.

"I was not the conductor of Mr. William Arlette's train!" the conductor explained reluctantly.

"Is that so? Then I feel relieved!" Chen Zhengwei laughed and boarded the train.
