The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 324 I'm Not Someone Who Can't Afford to Lose
New York, Fifth District.

"So he cut off your hands?" Paul Kelly looked at his men who were missing a hand and had gauze wrapped around their broken wrists, and he instantly became furious.

He stood up, picked up the chair next to him and smashed the coffee table, then smashed everything he could see, and finally threw it hard towards the window.

The chair flew out with the sound of the window shattering.

He didn't expect that after sending out four people, they would end up with one hand chopped off.

It was obvious that he was humiliated and the other party did not take him seriously at all.

He had been promoting gang meetings recently, and when he was feeling very proud of himself, he was slapped in the face.

After venting for a long time, Paul Kelly panted and looked at his men: "What else did he say?"

"He said that our gang is not worthy of competing with him..." Several men gritted their teeth, their eyes filled with anger and a bit of despair.

Without a hand, they are already useless.

In the streets where the strong prey on the weak, the outcome is predictable.

They just hope Paul Kelly can avenge them and give them a job.

"I'm not worthy of competing with him? How can a Qing insect be so arrogant?" Paul Kelly's eyes were bloodshot and cruel. After a long while, he continued to ask:
"Will he attend the meeting?"

"He said we are not worthy to be compared with him and probably won't participate!" several of his men said immediately.

"You guys go down and have a rest first, and I'll arrange for you to do other things later! You can rest assured that I will definitely avenge this!" Paul Kelly said hatefully.

He had originally planned to persuade other gangs at the meeting to suppress the Chinese man and put him in jail for a lesser crime to ease the current crackdown on gangs by the Department of Justice.

After all, the Ministry of Justice achieved its goal and the culprit was sent to prison.

Of course, although he was sent to prison for a minor crime, the other party was just a Chinese, and the Ministry of Justice would definitely have a way to make sure that guy would never get out.

Moreover, the fate of this Chinese man can also serve as a negative example, setting rules and bottom lines for all gangs to avoid such situations from happening again.

As the organizer of this meeting, he will naturally become famous and have a huge reputation among gangs throughout the United States.

But now he has changed his mind.

He must take revenge and let others see what happens if they anger him.

……

A train is traveling through the vast West. Looking out from the shaking window, you can see the endless grassland outside. From time to time, you can see herds of cattle and sheep on the grassland slowly foraging for food.

Along both sides of the railway, you can see sparse oak and pine trees. From time to time, you can also see explorers' camps and scattered horse-drawn carriages on both sides of the railway.

The inside of the train carriage was just as luxurious as the one William Ellette rode last time.

The train also had a luxurious carriage with a solid wood floor covered with thick carpets and a ceiling with gorgeous carvings inlaid with wood carvings and gold foil. The carriage was not equipped with the common benches on trains, but with large armchairs.

In addition, there is a small study area with many books.

Chen Zhengwei felt that the people in the railway company were quite tactful.

The reason I have been able to get to where I am today is by constantly learning various knowledge.

"Brother Wei! I didn't expect there are Chinese people in Chicago, and they seem to be living well!" Aaron followed Chen Zhengwei into the carriage, took a bottle of whiskey, bit open the cork, poured it for Chen Zhengwei first, and then poured it for himself.

"How did you know?" Chen Zhengwei's eyes swept across the scenery outside the window, and then saw Aaron take out a letter.

"They said it themselves! One of my relatives went to Chicago two years ago. They are very popular there! No one bullies them!"

"They wrote back to ask other Chinese to go there to develop their careers... But if it were last year, maybe some people would go there. Now that Chinese are so powerful in San Francisco, who would go to Chicago?"

"How many people are there over there?" Chen Zhengwei raised his eyebrows.

“More than 40 people, running a laundry shop over there!”

"With more than 40 people, of course they will welcome you to help wash clothes. If it's 50 or , that would be a different story!" When Chen Zhengwei heard that there were only people, he immediately lost interest.

If hundreds or thousands of people go there, they will take away the jobs of the local people, and then we will see a different face of them.

"It doesn't matter if there are four thousand people, Brother Wei is here!"

"You are the only one who knows how to flatter! Invite Great Poland and the others to play cards!" Chen Zhengwei cursed with a smile.

Why does he like A-Long so much? Because A-Long is the best at flattering people!
If Chen Zhenghu had half the ability to flatter as Ah Long, Chen Zhengwei would not have just thrown him into the human resources department to retire.

However, retiring in the human resources department is also suitable for Ah Hu.

After all, if you don't do anything, you won't do anything wrong.

He didn't have any big ambitions. Every day he either wandered around with his henchmen or drank and ate with others. He had dinner parties all the time, or he was in a brothel.

Or sometimes Lin Changning had something to do, such as contacting various chambers of commerce for the previous dragon boat race, and he would be called to help.

An hour later, Chen Zhengwei slapped A-Long on the head and yelled, "I'll teach you how to cheat! I'll teach you how to cheat!"

"I didn't!" Aaron felt particularly aggrieved.

"Every hand is either 20 or 21 points. Are you the God of Gamblers? It's not you who is cheating, but me?" Chen Zhengwei kicked Aaron again in hatred.

Chen Zhengwei is not someone who can't afford to lose. What he hates most is when someone cheats when playing cards with him.

If it weren't for Aaron, he would have hung him on the top of the train to fly a kite today.

"I don't want to play anymore!" Chen Zhengwei threw the cards away and pulled Mary Gardner back to the bedroom.

A moment later, heavy breathing was heard in the bedroom. Mary Gardner pressed her hands on the window, bit her lips, and hummed from time to time.

Outside, Aaron casually grabbed three cards and said, "20 points. You see, I'm not cheating!"

He doesn't want to win...he has no choice!

Great Poland and Schultz's deputies laughed when they saw Aaron being humiliated.

……

Sacramento.

In the study at Horatio Page's estate.

Horatio Page has aged more than 20 years in recent times, and his once strong body now seems like it will collapse at any time.

This made the servants of the Page family very worried.

Although Page has retired from his position as a member of parliament, he is still the backbone of the family.

If he fell, there was no one else in the Page family who could hold him up.

In particular, Horatio Page's two sons died one after another, and now there is only an eldest daughter who married far away in Nevada and a youngest son who has just come of age.

"Still no clue?" asked an old man in his fifties sitting in the study.

"Chinese!" Horatio Page's eyes were filled with madness and hatred.

"Are you sure? You don't have any grudge against him, right?"

"I have many enemies, but the only ones who would do this are the Chinese!" Horatio Page gritted his teeth.

“That bill from a few years ago!”

At first, he didn't think it was Chen Zhengwei. After all, he proposed more than one bill during his time as a congressman, and he had more than one enemy. But after checking these days... he felt that the only person in California who had the motivation and ability to do this was the Chinese man in San Francisco.

Especially this style of doing things.

This made Horatio Page almost certain that it was him.

Even if other people have grudges against him, their target will only be him, not his entire family.

Especially since he attacked other members of the family first and only left him behind, it would take a deep hatred for him to do such a thing.

"If it's him, you're not safe in California! The bodyguards outside may not be able to stop him!"

Horatio Page nodded, knowing that the other party's revenge was definitely not over.

He had to leave California, he was going to Washington!

Even if he loses everything he has, he will convince the parliament to kill all the Chinese!
……

In San Francisco, after Chen Zhengwei left, Lin Changning's condition remained almost the same as usual. She took the two little ones to practice boxing every morning. After Qiao Niang and Zheng Wu went to school, she usually read at home or went to the martial arts gym. Sometimes she would ask Rong Jiacai and Yan Qingyou's wives to go shopping.

After Chen Zhengwei gave the order, Yan Qingyou married the woman.

Lin Changning was at home at this time, wondering whether to go to the club.

After thinking about it, forget it.

The last time Chen Zhengwei was shot and Li Xiwen's bones were broken, she saw that woman, and Lin Changning was also clear about her identity.

A poor man.

As long as she doesn't cause any trouble, Lin Changning will tolerate her.

There was a knock on the door, and Rong Jiacai's voice rang out from outside: "Sister-in-law!"

"What's the matter?" Lin Changning asked loudly without rushing to get up.

"That Horatio Page is trying to run away and just arrived at the train station!"

When Lin Changning heard the news, he frowned slightly, stood up and went to open the door.

"What's going on? Where is he going?"

"He must have sensed something was wrong. He went to the train station with his son and a few bodyguards! The train is about to leave! Should we just take action? Although he has a few bodyguards, we can kill them all at once!"

Lin Changning thought for a moment and said:

"Let the people in Sacramento follow him! Don't let him get away!"

"If we chase him now, where can we catch up with him?"

"Reno, or Salt Lake!"

There was only one train departing from Sacramento, and it was heading east. No matter where the other party was going, they had to pass through several major cities in the west, all the way to Omaha, the gateway to the west, before they could transfer to other train lines.

"Let Ayou arrange some manpower! I will take people to stop him!" Lin Changning said.

"After all, he was the one who proposed the Page Act, and we can't let him die in obscurity! Your brother Wei wants to hear him say thank you in person, and I also have something to ask him!"

Lin Changning looked indifferent, but he was still a little excited in his heart. After all, he was taking people out to do something, and he could also treat it as having fun.

After being in the United States for so long...she has only been to Sacramento and a farm in the suburbs, and has never left California!
Seeing that it was the instructions left by Chen Zhengwei, Rong Jiacai immediately called Yan Qingyou to discuss it.

In the end, it was decided that Yan Qingyou would personally lead a group of people to go with Lin Changning, but there couldn't be too many people, otherwise it would attract too much attention.

And take the remaining smokeless bullets and submachine guns with you.

No matter what happens, at least we must get Lin Changning back safely.

A few hours later, Lin Changning, dressed in men's clothes, boarded the train with a dozen people, half of whom were German and half were Chinese.

A day and a half later, Lin Changning and his group arrived at the salt lake.

"Go and find out if the train from Sacramento has arrived!" After arriving at Salt Lake, Lin Changning asked Yan Qingyou to take people to inquire.

After a day and a half, Lin Changning was still full of energy.

Soon, Yan Qingyou brought back the news: "It hasn't arrived yet. It will take at least three hours, or at most half a day, for the train to arrive!"

"Can the people in the car keep their mouths shut?" Lin Changning asked first.

"There's nothing wrong with those staff members!" Yan Qingyou nodded.

He couldn't deal with the railway company, but he had no problem dealing with the railway company's staff.

"go!"

Lin Changning led his men directly off the train and left the train station first. Then they took out masks and put them on their faces.

Lin Changning walked around the crowd and found that after the Chinese put on the masks, their skin color was similar to that of the Italians, and their body shapes were also similar.

"Who among you can speak Italian?" Lin Changning had an idea after a quick glance.

"I..." a thug started.

"Very well, now no one but you can talk! When I make signs, you speak in Italian!"

Half an hour later I entered the train station again and went straight to the stationmaster's office.

The stationmaster was in his office when he saw the door kicked open and a train station worker walked in backwards.

Then a dozen men walked in with guns.

A group of people wearing masks and rushing in aggressively made the stationmaster feel scared.

"What do you want to do?"

"How can I make him shut up?" Lin Changning turned his head and looked at Yan Qingyou.

Yan Qingyou gave a sinister smile, pulled out a pistol from his waist and pointed it at the stationmaster.

"What do you want?" The stationmaster said with a pale face and raised his hands.

"We'll lend it to you for a while. As long as you keep your mouth shut afterwards, we won't do anything to you! After all, we're not bad people, and our purpose isn't to kill people!"

"Of course, if you talk nonsense... We have an old saying, 'A thief can steal for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.' Maybe one day a bullet will blow your head off, and the Investigation Bureau won't be able to protect you!" Lin Changning said in fluent English.

Although it was the voice of a young girl, it was full of indifference and ruthlessness, making the webmaster believe that she would really do it.

The stationmaster nodded quickly: "Whatever you want to do, I will agree to it!"

"Don't worry too much, we just want to invite one person! It has nothing to do with you!" While Lin Changning was speaking, he gestured behind his back to signal the henchman to speak.

"Boss, why don't we just kill him!" The henchman immediately spoke in Italian. Lin Changning suddenly turned around, kicked him hard, and shouted in a cold tone: "Shut up!"

Then he turned around and looked at the two people in the office with cold eyes.

"I don't know anything... I have a child... Don't hurt me!" the trainmaster begged.

"Remember, if I hear anything, not only you, but also your family... will be in trouble!" Lin Changning gave him a cold look, then pulled a chair aside to rest.

More than four hours later, the train from Sacramento finally arrived at the train station.
