The arrogance started from Chinatown

Chapter 487: Prisons can be like this? Eye-opening!

Salvatore Sabella stayed in the best hotel in San Francisco, where no one knew his identity.

Although he looks a little fierce, there is never a shortage of fierce-looking people in the West.

In particular, someone saw him having dinner with Chen Zhengwei, so in just a few days, he got to know some wealthy people here.

This kind of life is more desirable than the days of living on the edge of a knife.

He also thinks about what Chen Zhengwei said every day while waiting for the court to prosecute.

Within a few days, the San Francisco Police Department invited him in to discuss with him what cases needed to be prosecuted - to clear the names.

Sitting in Michael's office and discussing the bad things they had done, he felt wonderful.

"It will take about half a month. We will send someone to Philadelphia to get some files. It would be best if we can find the local police transcripts as evidence to prosecute you!" Michael said to Salvatore Sabella.

"We will find a way to do this. You don't need to worry about anything now. You can enjoy the foggy and humid weather in San Francisco." Michael has long been accustomed to this kind of thing.

I didn't think there was anything wrong.

"Thank you!" Salvatore Sabella smiled.

When he came out of the police station, a Chinese man in gentleman's suit was waiting for him in the lobby downstairs.

"Good morning, Mr. Sabella." Lin Zhengan said.

This was one of the people who were imprisoned with Rong Jiasheng and Rong Jiahong and went to Old Silver Mountain together.

He is responsible for the recent prison reforms.

"Maybe you want to take a look at where you're going to live next!" Lin Zhengan said.

"I'm really surprised!" Salvatore Sabella couldn't help but say that Chen Zhengwei's arrangement was really thoughtful.

He felt like he was about to check into the best hotel in San Francisco, not a prison.

"After all, Mr. Sabella is a man of status!" Lin Zhengan said with a smile.

"You can call me Salvio, that's what they all call me!" Salvatore Sabella saw that Lin Zhengan spoke clearly and gracefully, and knew that the other party's identity was not ordinary.

"Then I will call you Salvio! Although it's a little late... Welcome to San Francisco!" Lin Zhengan invited Sabella to take a carriage to the edge of the city.

Sabella was also very curious about the prison arranged by Chen Zhengwei.

"Actually, I suggest you arrange for a few of your men to go to jail with you! After all, there will always be someone to help you do things in prison! It will be easier to use your own manpower!" Lin Zhengan said to Sabella on the way.

In the suburbs, there is a wall that was recently built.

"There used to be a prison here, and we expanded it! The prison is divided into two parts... one part is for ordinary people... and the other part is for people with special identities like you!"

Lin Zhengan signaled to the guard to open the prison gate. Seeing the scene inside, Sabella opened her mouth slightly.

Even though he had imagined what the prison looked like, what he saw was still beyond his imagination.

Inside was a large garden with many trees, as well as lawns and flower beds under the trees.

He even saw a startled deer!
"The trees and flowers here were all transplanted!" Lin Zhengan introduced, leading Sabella onto the cobblestone road.

"We also threw some animals in there... maybe you'd like that?"

"This garden covers an area of more than sixteen acres. It's not very big, but it makes people feel very relaxing." Lin Zhengan said with a smile.

After walking along the cobblestone road through the garden, there is a swimming pool in front with lounge chairs next to the pool.

There were some fallen leaves floating on the surface of the swimming pool.

"No one lives here yet. After you move in, the water will be changed every two days."

"I feel like this is a vacation estate!" Sabella exclaimed.

"In fact, it is true." Lin Zhengan nodded. This is the holiday estate arranged for the committee members.

After all, among all the gangs in the United States, even if we only count the gang leaders, the number of people who need to go to jail every year is not a small number.

Behind the swimming pool, there is a three-story building that occupies a large area. The white exterior wall makes it look a bit like a prison, but it is somewhat out of tune with the garden and swimming pool in front.

"Maybe someone will like to paint on it or draw some graffiti in the future? There are always some people whose artistic cells cannot be placed!" Lin Zhengan continued.

"There is a gym, entertainment room, library, restaurant... We took into account that some people don't like to get together with others, so we actually arranged small fitness and entertainment equipment and restaurants in each suite!"

Lin Zhengan took him into the prison, where he saw that the ground was covered with wood and the walls were also covered with wood.

The gym has a variety of fitness equipment, and even a fighting ring and indoor badminton court.

The entertainment room has several billiard tables, card tables, and even a gambling table, and various board games are placed on the shelf on one side. In addition, there is a bar.

The library was quite normal, with a reading area at the entrance and rows of bookshelves inside, but most of them were empty at this time.

Sabella saw the labels on the side of the bookshelf, which were written in Italian, German, and English...

The books here are divided into regions according to language, and each region is further divided according to different types of books.

After walking around the library, Lin Zhengan took him to the suite...

A suite covering an area of about 100 square meters, with a living room, study, and a small activity room with a billiard table and simple fitness equipment.

"I don't know how to describe my mood anymore!" Sabella said truthfully.

"Remember what I said before that there is an ordinary prison next to it? If you feel lonely, you can go to the ordinary prison at any time and spend time with those prisoners!" Lin Zhengan said meaningfully.

"So I suggest you better arrange some of your own men!"

According to Chen Zhengwei, the ordinary prison is where zero-krypton and low-krypton prisoners stay.

This is a prison for wealthy criminals… In the future, not only high-ranking gangsters will be here, but also wealthy people and even politicians. They can enjoy all the luxuries here as long as they are willing to pay. They will spend hundreds or thousands of dollars a day here, or even more.

As long as it's half full of prisoners... this prison will earn tens of thousands of dollars a day, and millions a month.

And ordinary prisons...are actually places for them to have fun.

To some extent, it is equivalent to playing together.

Therefore, Chen Zhengwei simply disdained to bring those ordinary prisoners to build roads, as they could create greater value here.

After understanding what Lin Zhengan meant, Sabella opened her mouth for a long time before saying, "It's really eye-opening! It's really hard to imagine!"

He had never thought that a prison could have so many tricks. Living here for a few months, even for a few years, seemed acceptable.

After having lunch with Lin Zhengan and figuring out the situation, Sabella felt that she should notify her family to arrange for someone to come over and also send money.

Because of his efforts, he was actually exempted from all basic fees here, and Chen Zhengwei even arranged for women to come in every week.

However, some luxuries still cost money.

……

Brother Bob was resting near Mangrove City and returned to San Francisco quickly after receiving the news.

"We're finally back!" A group of dirty men rode into San Francisco on horseback, looking at the bustling streets with expectant looks on their faces.

It is not easy to sleep in the wilderness. Even if no one is chasing them anymore, they mostly hide in villages and towns.

The women in places like this are all peasant women...it's extremely difficult to find one that's somewhat pretty.

San Francisco is different.

"Don't I need to remind you, right? You can relax, but don't cause trouble, otherwise no one can save you!" Bob Ryan, who was riding a horse in the middle, said to the others around him.

"Don't worry, boss!"

"Who dares to cause trouble in San Francisco? That's a person who doesn't want to live!" others laughed.

As for some Chinese and Germans in the team, they were equally excited after returning to San Francisco, as life outside was really hard.

I don’t know how long I can stay in San Francisco this time.

A group of people went directly to the Mission District, which, like the South of Market Street area, is an industrial area with a large number of Hispanics living here, and the population is mixed.

They have several safe houses here.

"You can have some fun here, but don't go too far and don't get into trouble!" Bob Ryan reminded the others again, then he, Harry Ryan, and several Chinese and Germans went to the city center.

They are going to meet Chen Zhengwei.

"Bob Ryan? The boss said you were coming. Wait a moment! The boss is meeting the mayor!" The thug outside pointed at the door, indicating that they could wait aside.

The corridor is covered with thick carpets, and there are several sofas against the wall. There is even a small round table used as a coffee table, and waiters will pour water and coffee.

There were also tissues and candies in the box on the table.

There are also two oil paintings of nude women hanging above the sofa... Chen Zhengwei didn't know where they were obtained from. Anyway, there are always a lot of things of unknown origin in his safe, and they are hung there just because they look nice.

It has a very artistic and humanistic flavor.

That's the style.

While Bob Ryan was looking at the nude painting with admiration, he was thinking about the purpose of Chen Zhengwei calling him here.

Is there any big move?
……

"There is a huge shortage of people in San Francisco right now. All walks of life are short of people! So the city government has an idea to bring people here from the big cities in the east..."

“We can even provide tickets!”

"Great idea, James. You and your team are great!" Chen Zhengwei applauded. He didn't expect the San Francisco City Government could come up with such a great idea.

If we negotiated terms with the Pacific Railroad, we could lower the ticket price and have the San Francisco City Government pay for it.

Bring here workers from big cities in the east who are looking for jobs.

The money can then be earned back through taxation.

"We have a saying that if you want to take, you must first give. This is a great idea. Pulling workers from the big cities in the East to look for jobs here can not only meet San Francisco's demand for labor, but also expand the scale of the company, and then make the money back through taxes."

Chen Zhengwei sat on the sofa, crossed his legs, and talked.

"In addition, those workers will spend the money they earn in San Francisco in San Francisco, which can boost all walks of life!"

"Yes, that's our plan!" James smiled even brighter when he heard Chen Zhengwei's praise.

"There is just one small problem... After a large number of workers from the East pour into San Francisco, the public security in San Francisco will be greatly affected..."

So he needed to say hello to Chen Zhengwei in advance.

"It's very simple! I will set up a labor company to help arrange jobs for those new workers! The prerequisite is that they have no criminal record locally! The labor company will share the criminal records of the police station!" Chen Zhengwei smiled. He didn't need to think about such a small trouble.

At the same time, he can collect a fee from the workers and control the new workers.

"I know that when I'm in trouble, I can always get the answer from Mr. Chen!" James thought for a moment and then smiled.

I have to say, this is a good idea.

However, only Chen Zhengwei can have such control over this city, no one else can do it.

"We can also build some new houses and sell or rent them to the new workers!" Chen Zhengwei thought for a moment and said:
"Maybe we should plan a new economic development zone and move some factories there. We can use land swaps to exchange more suburban land for their factory land in the city center and provide some tax incentives to gradually move the factories outward."

"We can build supporting facilities in the suburbs, such as hospitals and schools! Then the land prices in the suburbs will go up."

"The land in the city center can be used for commercial development, such as building shops, hotels and villas, so as to create greater value for the land.

Hearing Chen Zhengwei's words, James' eyes became brighter and brighter.

He is not satisfied with being a yes-man mayor. He also wants to make some achievements in San Francisco and pave the way for his future political career.

Obviously, Chen Zhengwei pointed out a way for him.

As long as he can develop San Francisco into a pearl of the West, this resume will be enough to make him a rising star in American politics.

"Thank you very much for your advice! I will discuss a plan with my staff and then show it to Mr. Chen!" James could hardly wait to discuss it with his staff.

"No problem. We can also set up a real estate development company, and the development of the economic development zone will be handed over to this company! Of course, you can get a portion of the shares!"

"In addition, if there is a problem with funds, you can also issue bonds! I can sell these bonds!" Chen Zhengwei said again.

James gained political capital and support, San Francisco developed, Chen Zhengwei made money, and even the wealthy people who bought bonds received interest and a better San Francisco.

This is another win-win solution for all parties.
