At that time, Vancouver was an extremely chaotic city. Now the cultural center of Canada and the second largest city, Vancouver had the highest crime rate in Canada at the time, and was in the midst of a battle between Irish gangs and Jewish gangs.

I want to be alone with old Olvasino for a while." Hua Sheng stood up, nodded to old Olvasino, and then walked out of the room.
Old Olvasino waited for the door to close and said to Cappuccino: "I am willing to listen to what you have to say."
"He wanted me to convey this to you face to face. He told me: This accident was an accident on the part of the shipper, but he did not want to transfer his business to the ports of Toronto or Ottawa because he had no friends there. Big
The banknotes will pass through your port in the next few years, and he is willing to share the happiness with his friends."
