Chapter 11 New Home
In Josie's mind, Turkey is most famous for its barbecue and ice cream.
Only after looking at the menu, I realized that there are quite a lot of tricks, but the main cooking method is roasting.
However, there is no rotary barbecue that is popular all over the world in later generations.
Although the thing is called Turkish barbecue, it was actually invented by the Germans in 1971.
For the main course, he ordered a swordfish kebab, a beef kebab, and a grilled eggplant, but he didn't order it anymore, because the portion of this Turkish dish is still quite large.
Margot ate relatively simple, as long as a lamb chop and a salad.
After the food was served, Josie couldn't wait to eat it. He just bought a hot dog on the roadside for breakfast when he went out in the morning, and he was already starving.
While Josie was leisurely sharing delicious food with the beauty, a group of people in South Chicago were commotion because of him.
It was still the old warehouse, but there were not many people in the warehouse, but now it is crowded with more than a dozen people.
A middle-aged Italian man with a gloomy complexion, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, was sitting behind the office desk in a dainty manner.
He is the top executive of the Chicago Mafia, Eddie Scarpa, the third figure in the Moretti family among the three major families.
The original owner, the black car dealer named Mike, was kneeling in front of the desk, and beside him was the car thief Joe.
Judging from the swollen noses and swollen faces of the two, it was obvious that they had been warmly cared for by Eddie's subordinates.
The atmosphere in the warehouse is very dignified. As a high-level Mafia leader, Eddie Scarpa is a proper anti-social element. As early as the Prohibition period in the 1920s, he followed Carlo, the current head of the Moretti family. · Facone.
Of course the two of them were about the same age as Josie at that time.
After nearly twenty years of hard work, the two have grown from small bootleggers on the street to the top bosses of the Chicago Mafia, with countless lives in their hands.
Facing such a murderous person, Mike and Joe felt terrified in their hearts.
Even Mike regretted taking this business without knowing it.
Just when the two were feeling uneasy, another of Eddie's men walked into the warehouse.
"Boss, there is news. Someone saw that car leaving the city from the west and never came back." The subordinate leaned close to Eddie's ear and said.
Eddie nodded when he heard the words, then got up and walked in front of Mike and Joe.
"My people have news. It seems that you are not lying. The other party is indeed not a local. He has left Chicago. It may be difficult to get this car back." Eddie said slowly.
"Boss Eddie, since the investigation is clear, can I go now?" Hearing Eddie's words, Joe squeezed out an ugly smile on his chubby face and said flatteringly.
But Mike on the side looked at him like he was looking at a fool.
Thinking that if the matter is found out, this person will let them go? This young man is too naive.
If the Mafia really makes sense, is it still the Mafia?
"Huh?" Joe was dumbfounded, four thousand dollars, he was just a sneaky gangster, where did he get so much money?
"Ah what? That's right, I couldn't find the person who snatched the car, but the car was lost from your hands. If you didn't protect something, you should be responsible"
"Don't say I'm unreasonable, one week, I'll give you one week. I don't care if you steal or rob, give me the money, of course, if you can get the same car Cars are fine too."
"After a week, if you don't see any money, I'll take you to fill the lake!"
"Don't even think about running away. I will send someone to watch over you and your family. As long as you dare to run, I guarantee that you will definitely not be the only ones who will die. Of course, Joe, I know you have no family, but you have friends , you don't want to implicate your little brothers because of your own affairs, do you?"
Eddie patted Joe's face and said grimly.
Speaking, he left the warehouse without thinking, and a group of subordinates also left.
Only Mike and Joe with miserable faces were left.
That's eight thousand dollars.
Such a sum of money is naturally a small amount of money for the mafia bosses.
But Joe and Mike are different. To be precise, they are not even official members of the Mafia, but just outsiders who eat some mafia residue.
For low-level people like them, they may not be able to save so much money for several years without eating or drinking.
And the other party only gave one week...
"What should we do?" Joe asked Mike with a trembling voice.
In his opinion, he is the most innocent. He just came to sell an old second-hand car. He didn’t make much money, and ended up in such a mess.
"I don't know either, figure it out yourself!" Mike said with a little evasive eyes, avoiding Joe's sight of asking for help.
Unlike Joe, although Mike is only on the outskirts of the Mafia, he has mastered a lot of black car trading channels. In fact, he has some savings. Eight thousand dollars is not available, but if it is only four thousand dollars, he will sell the pot and sell the iron to bite the bullet It's still manageable.
So for him, it is a great fortune that Joe shared half of the responsibility for this matter. If he was the only one when Josie came to grab the car, he would have a headache now.
Now, I am in serious pain, but at least I don’t have to die.
As for Joe, he doesn't care that much.
Of course, if he knew that Josie was attracted because of Joe's car theft, he probably wouldn't think so.
Seeing Mike's avoiding gaze, Joe knew that he would never get any help from this old fox.
He could only drag his beaten and bruised body out of the old warehouse in a daze.
Looking at the back of Joe leaving, Mike sighed in his heart. If he wanted to get four thousand dollars in a short time, he probably had to rob a bank. Of course, there were other jobs like stealing, robbery, and smuggling, but those Most of them need time to realize, and one week is not enough.
Josie didn't know what happened in the abandoned warehouse, and even if he knew, he wouldn't care.
In the final analysis, it all happened because Joe stole his car. If he did something, he would have to pay the price. The world of adults is as simple as that.
At this time, he is visiting his new home under the guidance of Margot.
