Manhattan Reborn 1978

new York.

After Bernard Madoff left, David felt that time passed quickly, and it was evening in the blink of an eye~

After sorting out the scattered folders on the table and bringing some information to go back to the apartment to read in the evening, David locked the door and left Stanley.

On the street, Giovanni and Mike Bai were sitting in the car boredly waiting. When they saw David coming out, they greeted him and the three of them drove back to the apartment.

"Guys~ Where are Black Mike and Ravis?"

Mike Bai, who was driving, smiled and curled his lips: "What do you think?"

"Um... Going on a date again?"

"Yeah~ The two of them... are trapped~!"

David knew a little bit about Black Mike and the beautiful clerk, but he didn't know anything about Lavis and the single mother. .

"Where's Lavis? His...girlfriend? Have you met her?"

"Giovanni has seen it, but I haven't~"

Giovanni exaggeratedly said with a smile: "Lavis didn't lie~ His girlfriend is a divorced single mother, she is very beautiful! She also seems to have a good personality~"

David was already a bit gossipy about Lavis. .Regarding the new relationship, he raised his hand and scratched his head and said: "Since she is so beautiful, why would she get divorced? Is her ex-husband a... fool? Blind man?"

Giovanni shrugged and spread his hands: "You can only ask Lavis yourself for such detailed questions~"

"Then...is he still sleeping on the sofa at Black Mike's place at night?"

"No~ He found an apartment in the building opposite your apartment and rented it temporarily!"

"Okay ~ This guy, I will ask about this when I see him!"

Mike Bai drove the car, glanced at the rearview mirror and said, "I don't think you need to ask at all, that kid will tell you!"

"That's right~ He's not the kind of person who can hold back and hide things~"

"Hahaha~"

David and Giovanni both felt the same way about this and burst into laughter!

night.

The Queen.

Shinny, a gang leader in the Bronx, was sitting in a car with Carew, waiting. .

Not far away is Hardman's home. He should be back soon~

in the car.

Karu took out a pack of cigarettes and handed one to Sinni. They lit it, rolled down the car window, and looked into the distance quietly.

Xinni exhaled a puff of smoke, recalled Ludi's words, and said in a low voice: "Karu, you... After I quit, if you think there is anything wrong with the gang, you must inform me first. !”

"What aspect are you talking about?"

Xinni shook his head and said: "In all aspects!"

"The Bronx now..."

"I regret not taking you with me that day when we signed the agreement in Bonini!"

"Gangs... in New York... life will become more and more difficult in the future!"

Karu nodded quietly, smoking his cigarette, waiting for Xinni's next words. .

"More than ten years ago, those small smuggling docks we had on Long Island were the biggest source of income after I took over the gang!"

"A few years ago, Frank Lucas, the drug lord in Harlem, led a bad leader and made the streets of Manhattan full of people selling cocaine~"

"It was also at that time that I saw the huge profits from cocaine. I couldn't resist the temptation and started selling drugs."

"That David boy once said in Bonini's restaurant that we gangsters are attached to the city of New York... blood-sucking insects~"

"New York is prosperous, and we are getting rich. New York is declining, and we are going to die too!"

"Now, one-third of all income in gangs comes from smuggling, and one-third comes from drugs. The remaining income from underground casinos, loan lending, labor unions, protection fees and other businesses are slowly shrinking."

"Karoo~"

"New York is slowly declining. It is unknown when it will prosper again~"

"So, after you take over the gang, you must be... stable!"

"Stabilize your existing income, channels, and financial resources, and don't easily have large-scale conflicts with others!"

"In terms of manpower, after you take over, you can bring up the few people you trust..."

"I received news that there are some Mexicans and black people from the south in Harlem recently, and they want to sell a large amount of heroin and leaf cigarettes~"

"You must pay more attention to people and things in this area from now on - don't be careless!"

On the street, in a car.

Xinni clearly explained to Karu the experience he had accumulated over the years, as well as some arrangements, backup plans, predictions and judgments within the gang!

Finally, some concluding advice was given to Carew.

"No matter who it is, if he wants you to touch drugs, you must be wary of him, especially cocaine. You must not touch it until you die!"

"No matter who it is, if he wants you to participate in the drug trade, you must refuse!"

"The police have been keeping a close eye on bank robbers recently. Arms can only be sold by a middleman they are familiar with!"

“Be cautious when lending, and only lend to those who can recoup costs and have guarantees!”

"Smuggling is the business I am most optimistic about in the future. Smuggling, electronic products, cigarettes, alcohol, etc. are all good businesses that can be done in smuggling!"

"Underground casinos, money shops and other businesses must keep a low profile. The first goal is to ensure that they will not be harmed, and the rest is to make money!"

. . .

The cigarettes in Karu's mouth were one after another. .

He tried hard to keep everything Xinni said in mind, and prepared to go back and digest it slowly!

The night is getting darker.

far away.

A car slowly stopped on the street. Hardman got out of the car, locked the door, and walked into his house.

"Okay~ I'll go there first...you wait for me here!"

"Okay, boss!"

Xinni opened the car door, looked around, threw away the cigarette butts in his hand, straightened his clothes, and took long strides towards the Hardman house.

He needs to have a good talk with Hardman tonight and get a clear answer. .Answer!

----

Manhattan's East Side.

In a restaurant with a very nice environment.

Lilith invited Alicia and Professor Nash to have dinner here~

Professor Nash and his wife have never met Lilith.

So, when she called Professor Nash and introduced herself.

Only then did Professor Nash and his wife know that the follow-up work of the data research center had been left to Lilith, a lazy boy like David, to handle it~

Some time ago.

After Professor Nash and his wife moved to New York, in the first few days, they were very uncomfortable with the fast pace of life in New York~

Especially Professor Nash, who likes to immerse himself in his own mathematical world for many years and does not care about the changes of the times. .A knowledgeable person, familiar with the customs, customs and living environment of New York. .Very cold!

For Alicia, David's sudden appearance, Professor Nash's condition improved, and her child's college tuition was settled. It was three blessings!

Alicia has many beautiful longings for coming to New York in her heart.

Um. .

The Morgan family is a major financier and investor. Professor Nash and his wife both know Giles and know something about this.

Lilith as. .One of David's newly established team wants to invite the couple to have dinner today. .It will be of great benefit to future work!

Inside the restaurant.

Seeing that all the dishes were served, Lilith smiled and raised her wine glass, touched it lightly with the Nash couple's wine glasses, and took a sip of red wine.

"David has been busy reading information in Stanley these days. If there are any problems with the project R&D center and data center, you can come to me!"

"I have an office in Stanley. After a few days, I need help preparing a temporary office in the R&D center~"

Alicia put down her wine glass with a smile and glanced at her somewhat dull husband. .said with a smile.

"No problem~ We will tidy up the office tomorrow~"

"I know David has a lot of things to do. He may have forgotten the information compilation work he gave to Nash~"

"If it's convenient, I can send someone to sort out the documents tomorrow and send them to Stanley~"

"Oh? Okay~ Just tell me before you send someone here tomorrow."

"ok~"

Seeing that Lilith didn't ask about the details of the job, Alicia looked at her husband Nash and touched him under the table with her foot. .I want him to say something too. .

Nash chewed food in his mouth, glanced at his wife, seemed to understand something, and said: "Lilith, can you tell me your plan for the data center?"

"Haha~ Actually, I just accepted this job, and I don't have any specific plans~"

"I invited you here today just to hear your thoughts~"

Nash nodded, put down the tableware, wiped his mouth and said, "Do you know about the land that Princeton University took out?"

"I know~"

"I think... we need..."

Professor Nash shared all his thoughts on the construction of the data center these days~

To put it simply: plan the site development well, renovate the factory as soon as possible, order large computer sets from IBM in advance, etc.~

After listening to Professor Nash's ideas, Lilith smiled and nodded: "I'm already looking for someone to help with the design and planning of the entire data center~"

"We can talk to Polly about the renovation work. There is a construction and decoration branch under the company."

"As for the issue of ordering from IBM, Professor Nash, I will contact them tomorrow. When the time comes to meet and chat, I hope you can come with me!"

"Um...I..." Professor Nash was a little hesitant about this matter. .

Alicia smiled and continued: "Lilith, I'd better contact the computer science professor at Princeton University for help~"

"Nash is very good at mathematics and is a beginner in computers!"

"ok~"

"Let's... enjoy the food first~ Their food here tastes very good~"

"Hehe~ Okay!"

Lilith picked up the tableware and started chatting with the Nash couple while eating the dishes. .

They talked about their previous life at Princeton University, their children, and the changes in their lives after coming to New York. .And David!

During the chat, Alicia felt the connection between Lilith and David from Lilith's language and demeanor. .has a problem!

It has to be said that women are more sensitive in some aspects. .born with!

Lilith also felt some changes in the way Alicia looked at her. .He raised his glass with a smile and said to her: "You must not have paid attention to some reports in the newspapers these days, right?"

"Uh... no~"

Alicia picked up the cup and took a sip, wondering what Lilith was talking about. .What means?newspaper?

"Hehe~"

Lilith put down the cup, wiped the corners of her mouth, adjusted her sitting posture, and introduced to the Nash couple: "A few days ago, David was on Wall Street. He confessed his love to me, and I agreed~"

"So...I'm David's girlfriend now!"

"what?"

The Nashes are both on this. .Gossip News was surprised. .

Alicia remembered David's situation very clearly. She glanced at her husband uncertainly and opened her mouth, not knowing whether she should say anything. .David seems to have a girlfriend. .she called. .Susan!

Lilith paused for a moment, saw the expressions of the Nash couple, smiled and shook her head: "Yes ~ I know Susan ~"

"We became good friends~she also accepted me~"

Professor Nash's reaction was extraordinary. .exaggerate!

He hesitated and said: "So... you are one of David's girlfriends?"

"Haha~ Yes~ We plan to hold an engagement ceremony before Christmas at the end of the year!"

Emmm. .

Alright~

Nash and Alicia versus that silly boy David. .means deeply. .admire!

He is. .how did you make it?

Are you going to hold an engagement ceremony?

Regarding this matter, Alicia asked the question she was most concerned about with some worry: "Then... Susan~she~?"

"She knows about this! When it's time for us to get engaged, she will also attend!"

Ohgod~!

Professor Nash and his wife, these two intellectuals, are very interested in David. .I am completely speechless about the blessing that has come my way~!

When the couple was struggling to accept the somewhat explosive news, Lilith clearly expressed the purpose of her treat today.

To sum up the meaning in a few words. .

Lilith is David's fiancée, and she is his own person~ In the future, she will also be the boss of the R&D center and data center~

If the Nash couple has any issues or problems, they can come to her at any time ~

In the future, she will represent David to establish and develop both centers and make David’s plans come true one by one!

Professor Nash responded to Lilith's words with expression and words. .affim. .

But he began to murmur in his heart. .

David, this stupid boy~he is. .Playing with fire!

After half an hour.

At the door of the restaurant, Lilith said goodbye to Mr. and Mrs. Nash with a smile, got into the car and left~

Alicia held her husband's arm, and the two of them stood on the street. No one had any intention of going home right away~

Nash raised his hand and scratched his head. .I asked my wife a question that I had been holding in my mind for a long time~

"Alicia ~ David... I can no longer understand the young people nowadays... do they view marriage and love?"

"Haha~ There is something weird in this matter~ Let's just pretend we don't know!"

Alicia smiled and shook her head. The autumn night wind had a hint of coolness, and she couldn't help but raise her hand to tighten her collar.

"Let's go home first~"

"We will know the answer when the time comes!"

----

One night passed in a blink of an eye, just like always.

The sun rises slowly from the east~

A new day, it's here!

David woke up in the morning light, feeling Susan growing tired of him in his arms. .Body temperature, a wicked smile appeared on his face. .

After half an hour.

David, who felt refreshed and dressed, took the documents he brought back last night and prepared to go downstairs to find Black Mike~

"Ring~Ring~"

Just before he was about to go out, the phone in the living room suddenly rang~

David glanced at Susan in the bedroom, closed the door, walked to the sofa, sat down, and picked up the phone.

"Hi~ I'm David!"

On the other side of the phone, Mr. Parker’s voice came over with a hint of joy~

"David, this is Odis~ I received an interesting news~ I will go to Stanley to find you later!"

"Um..Okay~"

"Haha~ Then... I'll see you soon~!"

"Beep~beep~beep~"

David looked at the phone in confusion and put it down. .

I don’t know what’s going on with Mr. Parker~
