This form of illegal organization originated in Sicily, Italy and Corsica, France. By the turn of the 20th century and the 21st century, it has undoubtedly become the most famous underworld synonymous with the world, as well as Japan's Yakuza.
, the triads in Hong Kong, China, the world-famous mafia organization with the names of Colombian drug lords, and the family-based mafia flowed into the United States in the early 20th century, and then developed to the most powerful scale. Although by the 1970s and 1980s,
In the 1990s, some of its forces were dismantled by the FBI, but to this day, it still maintains considerable power and influence, operating a series of businesses including smuggling, drug trafficking, human smuggling, assassinations, and garbage recycling.
Today, with New York as the center, there are dozens of mafia families in the United States, of which the most famous are the five major families, namely the Gambino family, the Buiano family, the Colobo family, the Genovese family and the
The Lucchese family, among which the Gambino family is the most powerful, has left their distinctive traces throughout the history of the American Mafia, whether they attack others or are attacked by others. For example, the oldest mafia originally from Italy
The Party family became the first leader of the American Mafia, Joseph Bernano, nicknamed Joe Banana, who was later defeated by Carlo Gambino, and this Carlo Gambino was actually the character in the movie "
The prototype of the protagonist of The Godfather.
Compared to Gambino, the power of the Salier family is not considered strong. Although the two sides have irresolvable conflicts due to many issues, they are not the number one enemy. As the first family of the Mafia for a long time, Gambino
It has the ability to suppress Salier, but at the same time it has to face many other challenges. Under the law of checks and balances, it is never possible to truly drive away the Salier family. However, since as a weak person, he usually only seeks to protect himself, but
Every time a new godfather of the Gambino family takes office, the family has to be in a hurry and be nervous for a while.
+|.After his father, the Salier family began to contact everywhere, get close to various forces, and express their stance, just to give an advance warning to the Gambino family: "I still have friends, if you want to touch me.
Others may not agree, so don’t go crazy.”
After dealing with each other for so many years, everyone knows that John D'Amico is a smiling tiger. Under the principle of profit first, he loves peace. At the same time, he is also the best at using this appearance to confuse others and join forces to kill everything.
opponent.
The party held tonight at the Salier Manor is actually for this reason.
"I remember...the last time there was such a banquet, it was..." As she walked through the brightly lit road, Marilyn shook her long blond hair and recalled what happened several years ago. In her place
Next to him, Jia Ming was the first to give the answer: "1992, right?"
"Well……"
"Gotti went to jail that year, and Gotti Jr. took his place."
"Yeah. That's right. Heidi celebrated her seventh birthday that year. In fact, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. John Gotti has a very high-profile personality. During that time, his enemies would have to be wary, but he was too high-profile.
, always giving interviews and humiliating government departments. Later, Bull Shami’s testimony sent him to jail... Heidi may not remember it. Before that, we were always followed by a group of people when we went out. As time went by, I hated going out. Learn
I learned Chinese, traveled to China for a month, and lived in Beijing..." Marilyn thought as she spoke. She was obviously not very impressed by the reclusive life during that period. When she mentioned Tang Jingyao, she immediately shut up and said with a smile, "Sorry.
"
"Well, do you still remember?"
"I remember." Marilyn nodded, "I remember everything, but the feeling is completely gone. It's strange, isn't it?"
"I don't know." Jia Ming shook his head, "I can't understand this aspect..."
"Express your opinion."
"Tell me, everyone in the banquet ahead is nice. If you don't like him, I'll go over and kill him." He spread his hands helplessly, "This is relatively simple."
"You." Marilyn sighed regretfully and smiled, "You really don't understand a woman's heart. Sometimes she's just like a wooden person..."
Jia Ming smiled and said nothing. He had been trained in things like the human heart, but... that was just training after all, just a killing technique...
At this time, the two of them had arrived directly in front of the main house. It was already past eight o'clock in the evening. The guests had all arrived and were walking around. Most of the guests who came this time were some powerful underworld leaders. The guest of honor
A small number of them, the number of subordinates, bodyguards and the like who followed these people must be at least two or three times more. Jia Ming took a look and thought to himself.
If you put a bomb here, I don’t know what chaos the entire New York underworld will cause.
Bombs...missiles...weapons of mass destruction rotated in my mind before entering the hall. Several people who knew Marilyn came over and exchanged pleasantries. Marilyn spoke to them skillfully...
…
…
"Last month Wesley bought a modified military Hummer. It has strong horsepower and consumes an average of one liter of fuel per kilometer..."
"I guess the only purpose of that car is to transport oil tanks..."
"Halse is going to invest in charity and he is going to open a children's adoption home."
"I heard that he used to kill people without batting an eye, in a children's slaughterhouse? Haha..."
Mafia gatherings at the end of the 20th century have long lost the slightly gloomy black-and-white movie atmosphere in "The Godfather". Amid the transparent *** and smooth music, most of the people around them talked about money-related topics. Of course,
, if you listen carefully, you can occasionally hear some underground revelations that are difficult for ordinary people to access, but no one talks about Gambino, nor John D'Amico. This is not a formal underworld gathering after all, about Gambino.
No one will make a formal statement on the relationship with Salier, but it is also a consensus among everyone that the two families cannot be involved in a full-scale war.
After standing next to Marilyn for a while, I heard her talking to people. They were all about the garbage recycling business. Among the things run by the Mafia, operating a garbage disposal site is a relatively legal one. In New York, these
Most things are monopolized by the Mafia, and occasionally people are even killed for picking up trash in New York. This is true. Marilyn, who was usually very docile in front of Jia Ming, now showed a calm and considerate attitude.
, maintaining due courtesy and coping appropriately, listening to them chatting for a while, Jia Ming gestured to find Heidi, Marilyn apologized, ended the chat, and immediately caught up with her.
"Uh, sorry..."
"Don't worry about me." Jiaming smiled, "I'm serious."
"You are my guest."
Jiaming shrugged: "I thought I should be the master."
"That's right, as long as you like it."
"Stupid woman..."
Marilyn was with her, and soon someone came over to say hello. After all, she was the master, not to mention more than the inferior. Salier may be weaker than Gambino, but he is also one of the mafiosi who has done well. Such a family
Among them is a woman who has lived alone for many years and possesses both Eastern demureness and Western sexiness. Even if she has a daughter, she is undoubtedly the best candidate for marriage.
She wanted to follow, but Jia Ming had to walk around slowly. He was not interested in the banquet itself, and the backgrounds of the people participating in the banquet could not arouse any emotion in him - neither awe nor disdain. After a while,
, Marilyn dealt with the new wave of greeters, Jia Ming sat down on the chair next to him, and Joseph came over with a wine glass: "How do you feel about New York?"
“Very noisy.”
"Yes, sometimes I feel the same way." Joseph smiled, "So, I heard that you encountered some accidents when you went out this morning?"
"Um."
"I think this is normal. Statistics say that a crime occurs in New York every eight seconds... Oh, Charles, long time no see, how is life on the West Coast..." As he was talking, a long-haired man came over.
Sitting aside, Joseph said hello, and the man smiled: "Business is not doing well in Los Angeles. The Spanish are getting more and more arrogant. A few black people were shot dead on the street for no reason a few days ago because they didn't
They like black people to enter their territory, and the news is very tight at the moment. It’s almost Christmas, and with John D’Amico’s incident, it seems that I’m coming back at the right time... Oh, this is..."
"Marilyn and Heidi's friend, Gu Jiaming from China, Jiaming, this is Charles, we usually call him Prince."
"Hello, I'm Marilyn's cousin." He came over and shook hands with Jiaming. Then Charles chatted with Joseph about the Gambino family. After a while, he saw Marilyn's father Victor Sr. walking by from a distance.
After entering the banquet hall and heading this way, Joseph and Charles were currently the two most important leaders of the Salier family. They probably wanted to discuss official matters. Jia Ming stood up and was about to leave. After taking a few steps, a figure ran from the side.
It was Heidi who came out and took his hand.
"Finally I found you. I thought you and Mommy weren't coming." She waved to Joseph and others, pulled Jiaming away, and happily ran towards the side door of the hall, "I'll take you
