11. George Korle wants to take back the tavern

 After Donnie borrowed a thousand dollars from Nucky, he immediately started contacting the pubs in Atlantic City.

Some tavern owners saw that even at this time, there were still people who dared to buy the tavern. They felt as if they had been in prison for three years. Suddenly today, the guards came in with a gorgeous woman and told them that they had arranged a private room for you.

If you don’t fulfill the order, this woman will not be able to get out of bed!

At this moment, Donnie is the god of these pub owners!

But Downey didn't seem to be in a hurry to buy these pubs. He kept bargaining with the other party. This bargaining lasted for nearly a month!

Downey had already reached the price he proposed, but at this moment, the tavern owners suddenly raised their prices.

"Mr. Horry, we had clearly agreed on the price before, but now you suddenly raised the price. Not only did it exceed the price you originally proposed, but it also caught up with the price before Prohibition. Why is this?

?"

Downey was sitting in the lobby of a hotel called the Blue Ocean Tavern, looking at each other with a confused expression.

The current operating status of pubs in Atlantic City is that basically every pub no longer stocks liquor. If they still have liquor in stock, they will sell it. If they do not have liquor in stock, then they will sell it to customers based on their daily sales volume.

The brewery or distributor purchases the appropriate amount of wine.

Under such circumstances, the selling price of a pub is definitely not as good as the selling price before Prohibition was officially passed, but the other party dares to ask for this price now.

But no matter how Downey negotiates with the other party, the other party will bite Qingshan to death and won't let go. At this price, are you willing to buy it or not?

Faced with this situation, Downey had no choice but to stand up: "If this is the case, then the deal between us can only end. You are not the only tavern in Atlantic City!"

After that, Donnie got up and left the Blue Ocean Tavern.

At its peak, Atlantic City had nearly 2,000 taverns. Although some have closed now, there are still more than 1,500.

Downey walked with great confidence!

After leaving the Blue Sea Tavern, Downey returned to the Korla Tavern.

Robert took out two bottles of beer at the bar, handed one to Downey, and said: "The other party obviously got orders from certain people, otherwise it would be impossible to raise the price at this time!"

The failure of the acquisition did not make Downey unhappy at all. Instead, he smiled and said: "Isn't this great? After all, we were still thinking about lowering the price to make Horry reject our acquisition!"

Robert smiled at first, and then asked with some worry: "There won't be any problems with John's side, right?"

Downey took a sip of beer and smiled: "If John was the only one to do this, I would indeed be worried, but with the help of Carl and Cameron, I believe there will be no problem!"

Robert nodded, and suddenly asked Donnie in a cowardly manner: "Do we have nothing to do today?"

Donnie glanced sideways at Robert and asked, "What do you want to do?"

Robert smiled and said: "I have been observing the Gill Hotel next door for a long time. It is a good place. I want to go shopping!"

Gill's Hotel is not outstanding among the more than 1,200 hotels and boarding houses in Atlantic City. It just has another service compared to ordinary hotels and boarding houses-services for men's physical and mental health.

!

Donnie smiled and said: "Be careful when the priest's daughter comes to kill you. I'll cut it for you when the time comes!"

Robert raised his eyebrows and shouted sternly and restrainedly: "She dares, but I can't kill her with just one punch!"

Downey continued: "What if the priest comes too?"

"Haha!" Robert smiled contemptuously and said: "A man can bend and stretch, so what's the big deal? Kneel down and admit your mistake!"

After Donnie laughed and cursed, he said: "Go away!"

Robert chuckled, took the beer and left. Looking at Robert's leaving figure, Donnie felt a little helpless, not because of what happened to Robert, but because of his current capital.

If he hadn't known that he could only borrow $1,000 from Nucky, Downey would have really wanted to borrow more.

Just when Downey was thinking about how to get some more money, the sun at the door was suddenly blocked by someone. Downey turned around, his expression slightly changed.

Counting on his fingers, Downey only has a few acquaintances in Atlantic City, including Nucky, whom he just met before, his bodyguard Louis, and his previous client Allman.

Another one is George Korle, who has a complicated relationship with him!

And now the person walking into the tavern is George Korler, Downey's former company commander in the army and now the deputy security officer of Atlantic City!

"Woo!" George Korle, a 27-year-old man with a common figure and a frivolous look, whistled and walked in, followed by two of his men. George Korle sat carelessly opposite Downey.

"Dear Donnie, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Everyone is in Atlantic City. Why don't you come to see me?"

Donnie was thinking about why the other party came over at this time, and he said with a smile on the surface: "George, you have just taken the position of Deputy Public Security Officer, you will be very busy, how can I disturb you!"

George Korle waved his hand indifferently and said: "I heard that after you took over this tavern, you only opened it for two days and then started to take a rest. Are you having some operational difficulties?"

Downey smiled and said: "I don't know much about Atlantic City yet, so I just want to understand the situation in Atlantic City first before I can open my business!"

George Korle nodded and said nonchalantly: "I have thought about it in the past few days. When I gave this tavern to you, I was really in a hurry, so I decided to give you 100 US dollars. As for you, you don't have to

Now that you are familiar with the situation in Atlantic City, just sell this pub back to me!"

Speaking of this, George Korle seemed to have given Donnie a huge benefit and said proudly: "This is why I saved your life when we were on the battlefield. If it had been anyone else, I would definitely not be like this.

Generous!"

Donnie's brows were raised, and various emotions such as surprise, anger, and nervousness arose in his heart.

Surprisingly, George Korle found himself at this time and wanted to repurchase Korle's Tavern. This already showed that the upper management of Atlantic City should have reached a consensus that Atlantic City would ignore the U.S. Prohibition, even though he already knew

I learned about this matter, but after all, I saw it in various documents. Now the facts are in front of me, which shows that I am getting closer and closer to success!

Angry, Downey thought that if George Korle wanted to take back the tavern, he would have to wait until Prohibition was officially implemented in the United States. By then, Downey would at least have some chips in his hands to better resolve the matter.

As a result, George Korle doesn't follow the rules at all and just wants to take back Korle's Tavern for $100. This is no different from sending away a beggar.

The nervous thing is that now that the upper management of Atlantic City has made a decision, there will be a lot of people like George Korle. When there are more people, the competition will increase. The little money I have is simply useless in front of these giants.

Not enough.

I hope John can spend the more than a thousand dollars as soon as possible!

"How about it? I'm taking good care of you!" Seeing that Downey didn't speak, George Korle had already taken out 100 US dollars from his pocket and put it on the table. Then he smiled and said: "This matter is settled.

You can take this hundred dollars and leave!"

Downey looked at the dollars on the table and threw away other emotions from his head. The most important thing at this time was to deal with today's events first.

"I'm afraid this will disappoint you, George. I have no idea of ​​selling the Korla Tavern now!"

Downey knows that when facing people like George Korle, there is no need to talk in roundabout ways, because then the other party may not be able to understand, and at the same time, no matter what you say, the other party will not be happy!

Sure enough, after hearing Downey's rejection, George Korle's smile immediately disappeared, "Donny, have you forgotten where this place is?

And who am I now?"

Faced with George Korle's inquiry, Downey replied calmly: "Of course I know, but now Korla's Tavern is everything to me. If I sell this pub to you, won't I have nothing? By then, I won't have anything."

I’ll be sleeping on the street!”

George Korle looked at Downey with emotion and anger: "So you are rejecting me!"

By the time George Korle finished speaking, the two people behind him had taken a step forward, and one of them shouted loudly: "Donny Bullock, now we suspect that you are related to a robbery that occurred on the streets of Philadelphia two days ago. Now

You need to return to the police station with us for questioning!”

When Atlantic City was first built, the city hall had big ideas in mind, so many streets in Atlantic City were named after major American cities!

Seeing that the other party was about to take action, Downey suddenly smiled and said: "Wait a minute, wait a minute!"

George Korle stopped his men's actions, then looked at Downey proudly and said, "How was it? Now you know you regret it!"

Downey nodded: "People have to bow their heads under the eaves. In this case, I have nothing to say. But George, even if you want to buy back the Korla Tavern, you need to give me some time to let me stay in Atlantic City."

Find another place to live. Considering our friendship in the army, how about you give me three days?

How about we conduct a formal transaction in three days?"

George Korle stood up proudly and said with a smile: "That's right, then you just clean up and I'll come back in three days!"

After saying that, George Korler turned around and left the tavern.

After they left, Downey's face became gloomy, and he couldn't hide the killing intent in his eyes. He wanted to avoid any complications before his strength was officially established.

In the end, the other party didn’t agree at all!
