Cadillac-V16, released in 1930, discontinued in 1940.

One of the top luxury cars before World War II, the world's first mass-produced model with a 16-cylinder engine, only accepts customization and has a low output. In 2011, only more than 4,000 vehicles were sold, with an average price of $8,000.

Yesterday when Josh was buying a car, he saw one at that used car dealership...and that used car dealership itself is one of the largest used car dealerships in Chicago.

At the time, the seller directly offered $9,000, twice what Josie was worth now.

The terrifying price directly knocked Josie down.

That's right, it's also a second-hand car. Others' second-hand cars depreciate in value, but this second-hand car appreciates in value.

And this car in the garage is still a silver-gray convertible version, full of artistic sense.

Josie's own 1934 Ford 730 De Luxe was a piece of industrial junk by comparison.

Josie fell in love with this domineering luxury car at a glance.

I didn't expect that such an underground car dealer who sells black cars could still get this kind of car.

Only accepting customization means that the owner of the Cadillac V16 must be rich or expensive. After all, the high price of $8,000 is not something that ordinary rich people can afford.

Therefore, in theory, people who can own this kind of car are absolutely untouchable by ordinary car theft gangs, and car thieves will not dare to steal them.

Therefore, it is a bit abrupt that this car appears in such a place.

But Josie didn't care either, since he saw it here, the car was his.

It's just that Josie didn't go out directly, but first took off his coat, took out a leather jacket from the system warehouse and put it on, and then put on a hood... God knows when he prepared this.

After all these preparations were made, Josh took out the Thomson he just bought from the warehouse and walked out like this.

Who are you? Ooh, sir, what can I say! Hearing the movement, the two people in the warehouse immediately looked over and scolded.

But after seeing Thomson in Josie's hands, the two raised their hands instantly and their voices softened.

Josie is very satisfied with the attitude of the two, look, these Italians are not very kind? It's not as bad as in the movie.

Don't worry, I just need a car, where's the car key for this car? Josh asked the middle-aged Mediterranean man through the mask in a loud voice.

Oh no, sir, you can't drive this car, this is what Mr. Scarpa wants. If you drive away, he won't let us go. Seeing Josie asking for the keys of these two Cadillac V16s , The middle-aged Mediterranean immediately became anxious.

Scarpa? Who is that? Seeing Mediterranean's attitude, Josie couldn't help but be a little curious.

Mr. Scarpa is a senior member of the Moretti family and is in charge of the business of the entire red light district of Chicago's East Side. Mediterranean replied, This is the car he wants, it's just temporarily placed with me, and someone will come to pick it up in the afternoon. If you Drive it away and none of us will be alive by then.

The Moretti family? Who is that? Josh asked.

This gentleman, have you just come to Chicago? the slightly chubby young man beside him said.

What is it? What is it not? Josie rhetorically asked, in a way, he was right in Chicago.

The Moretti family is one of the largest mafia families in Chicago. If you have been in Chicago for a long time, it is impossible not to know the name. My friend, I advise you, if you still want to be in Chicago, it is best not to offend them. The fat young man sneered.

Oh? It sounds really powerful. Then tell me, what are the major forces in Chicago? Except for Al Capone, I really don't know anyone else. Josie thought thoughtfully.

Hehe, Mr. Capone is naturally worthy of our admiration, but after all, it was more than ten years ago. Now in Chicago, the Moretti family, the Clementi family and the Wenzi family have the final say, um, Maybe you have to add the triad. The slightly fat young man told Josie about the power situation in Chicago.

Although Josie wasn't ready to mix in the dark, she listened with relish. The other party's eloquence was very good, giving Josie the illusion of listening to storytelling.

I didn't expect you to be a car thief. The news is quite well-informed. What's your name? Josie asked when the other party finished speaking.

My name is Joe Barbaro, you can just call me Joe, he is Mike. Sir, when you meet, you are a friend, and you will definitely not let you come for nothing, as long as you don't move this car, the things in this warehouse , you can take whatever you like, by the way, there should be a lot of money in Mike's safe, you can take it too. Facing Josie holding Thomson, Jo's fat face smiled like a A chrysanthemum bloomed overnight.

You're a very interesting person, but it's a pity, I just want this car, and now I'll say it again, take out the car keys. However, Josh changed the conversation, apparently not taking the other party's warning seriously.

Josie's words made Joe and Mike's faces collapse immediately. They said so much about their feelings just now, and this man didn't take it seriously at all.

Sir... Joe still wanted to speak.

Shut up, give me the keys, or die here now, don't think I'm so fooled, since this car will appear here, it means that you belong to the Moretti family or work for the Moretti family. Yes, even if I don't take the car and take other things, will you give up after the fact? Josie sneered, What about the mafia? What I robbed is the mafia.

It is true that it is not a good thing to have entanglements with the mafia, but since the other party stole his car, the beam has actually been forged. It doesn't make much sense.

And what Josie wants to take revenge on is this Joe who stole his car, how could he make him feel better?

Even if you don't want to attract the police, Josie has the heart to directly chug these two goods.

So Josie doesn't really care about offending or not offending the Mafia now.

What's more, since he entered Italian Street, he used a coat to partially cover his face, and now he is covering his head. With the tracking and reconnaissance technology of this era, as long as he does not show his face, ghosts can find him.

Faced with the threat of gunpoint, Mike was reluctant, but he could only slowly take out the key from his pocket.

And take out the key to the car, the key to the safe, and tell me the code. Josh pointed to his old Ford.

You'll regret it! Facing the muzzle, Mike could only do as he did, but he didn't forget to speak harshly.

I don't know if I will regret it, but you are saying one more thing. I will definitely give you no chance to regret it. Josie said disdainfully.

Now, you two get in the car! With the keys, Josh opened the Ford's door.

After the two got into the car honestly, Josie closed the door and locked it.

Car door locks in this era are basically the same as house locks, and can be locked from the inside or the outside.

If the person locked inside does not have the key, he cannot get out unless he smashes the window.

But as long as they dared to smash the windows, Josie didn't mind the sudden rush even though he hadn't killed anyone.

After locking the two of them up, Josie wickedly added a pot of coffee to the fuel tank of the Ford car under the watchful eyes of the two.

After all this was done, Josie began to search the warehouse.

And his main search targets are naturally desks and safes.

Open the safe, there is not much money in it, only a few hundred yuan.

However, there are quite a few ration coupons.

There are gasoline, candy, wine, and coffee, all of which have been regulated. There are not many coupons, but there are at least four or five people.

In this special period, these things are worth more than mere money.

Take these ration coupons into your pocket without hesitation.

I searched the desk again, but I didn't find anything good, but there was an M1911 of the same model he bought before.

In line with the principle of plucking the wild goose, Josie also put it away.

Then Josie put a lot of tires in the warehouse into the system warehouse in a corner of the car that the two of them couldn't see.

In this era, there are only two large-scale production of practical synthetic rubber, and all tires in the United States are natural rubber.

In addition, Southeast Asia, an important rubber producing area, was blocked by chickens, so the United States now has only South America as the source of rubber. This also led to the fact that during the war, tires became a more important strategic resource than gasoline.

In the end, Josie, who had finished the search, drove the Cadillac out of the warehouse under the resentful eyes of the two Italians in the Ford car.
