LA Detective

Chapter 415 Break up
New York City is the economic center, financial center and commercial center of the United States, and it is also one of the three major financial centers in the world.

This city carries too many honors.

Strictly speaking, Luke came to New York for the first time, and he was too curious about the city.

The little fat man was still young when he lived in New York, his memory has long been blurred, and he is a little strange to the present New York.

At Luke's suggestion, the father and son planned to take a one-day trip to New York, and the itinerary was planned by Li Zhaofeng.

In the morning, the weather is clear and sunny, which is a good day to play.

The father and son had breakfast, and went to the pier by car, ready to take a boat to visit the Statue of Liberty.

This bronze statue is so famous that even if you have never heard of it, you have seen it in movies. It can be said that it is a symbol of America. It has been destroyed hundreds of times in science fiction movies.

The bronze statue of Liberty was not built by the Americans, but by the French as a gift to celebrate the 100th anniversary of American independence. The bronze statue was cast in France, disassembled, shipped to the United States, and assembled.

The bronze statue is located at the estuary of the Hudson River. The cruise ship can just pass under the bronze statue from far to near. Perhaps it is because of its great reputation. After seeing it, Luke thinks it is okay.

"endlessly.

"Second aunt."

Luke's uncle Li Zhaonian runs a restaurant in Chinatown.

After making such a fuss, how can I still be in the mood to eat.

The place to get off is on the side of the Trinity Church road, there is a traffic light directly opposite, and the road sign on the light pole clearly shows that the small street opposite is Wall Street.

I haven't heard it for a long time, and I really want to go up and give Lan Mao two big mouths.

Will got up and walked to the round table at the door, and said with a smile, "You guys have finished eating, do you want to pack it?"

Wall Street is so narrow that it's hard to imagine that it's the street where the global economy is at its fingertips.

The family made an appointment to get together in the evening.

After Will's words fell, the four Asian guests at the big round table at the door stood up. It seemed that they had finished eating and were about to leave.

"When did you come back?"

Will said unconvinced, "Then let him eat and drink for free all the time, it doesn't matter if he wants to come alone, and bring a group of people every time.

This woman is officially Li Zhaonian's wife, Yao Xin.

Li Zhaonian quickly took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one for the bald man.

What impresses me the most is that this uncle loves to drink and has a good capacity for alcohol.

The restaurant is not too big, only about [-] square meters. There are two large round tables, and the rest are tables for four.

The last time Luke went to Washington to accept the award, he originally wanted to invite his father to go with him, but Li Zhaofeng was hit by a car and was recuperating, so Li Zhaonian went to Washington as a family representative.

This restaurant is always open all year round, "Isn't it closed for Christmas?"

How much money he has to eat this year, like him, restaurants have to go bankrupt.

New York's Chinatown is not very lively at night, and there are fewer pedestrians on the road.

After seeing off the guests and leaving the restaurant without outsiders, Li Zhaonian's face sank, and he sat down on the chair, "How many times have I told you that we are open for business, and only people who are friendly are willing to come. You Fight against that group of people, will we still do this business in the future?"

Li Zhaofeng said, "Chef Li returned to China for the New Year, and he won't be able to come back for a while. The opening of the second year of junior high school is not the same as there is not enough manpower."

The Statue of Liberty was built on a small island, and you can also buy a boat ticket to land on the island. Luke didn't think it made much sense, so he didn't go to the island.

"Alright, go ahead, I'm leaving first."

Luke finally understands that it is not easy to do anything these days. Although being a policeman is hard work, he has a lot of vacations anyway.

Li Zhaofeng hurried over and grabbed Will's arm, "Brothers, don't be angry, he is young and can't speak."

Li Zhaonian nodded, in front of his eldest brother and his family of three, he couldn't say anything more, so he gave Will a look, "Don't be dazed, go to the back kitchen and help me."

When Li Zhaonian heard the commotion, he also hurried out from the back kitchen, "Boss Zhang, what's going on, why did it start to quarrel, smoke a cigarette, and put the fire out."

Luke listened to this familiar national curse, it was so fucking... kind.

He's a lapd and doesn't have much privilege here.

Your uncle thinks he is a nice guy, and he is a fellow townsman, so he might be useful in the future.

The three father and son discussed while traveling, and the chat was full of interest, and any sense of strangeness disappeared.

"Look at this!"

Li Zhaonian waved his hands, and said weakly, "You don't need to worry about this matter, I know it well. Don't mess with the boss with your waiter job."

This is not Los Angeles, this is New York.

Li Zhaofeng was worried that his two sons were used to western food, and they would not get used to eating Chinese food all the time.

Ten minutes later, the father and son left Ji Manxiang.

Li Zhaofeng thought that his two sons had never eaten Northwest cuisine, so he ordered a portion of each, hoping that his two sons could try it.

In the past, someone came to your uncle's shop to make trouble, and he helped out once.

As long as it doesn't miss the overtime pay, it's quite chic.

At this time, it was already dark.

This incident also made Luke a little upset. If it was in Los Angeles, where there is no need to look forward and backward, Luke would have cleaned up the group of people.

Luke's stomach is also growling, and he ate a hot dog at noon, can he not be hungry?
Li Zhaofeng was also a little depressed. He was worried about his younger brother's family, but he couldn't show it on his face. The two sons finally got together. He didn't want them to have a bad time. So he calmed down and asked casually, " What do you want to eat, Chinese food or Western food?"

Luke nodded, didn't say anything more, and concentrated on eating.

On Christmas Day, I had to hire people temporarily, otherwise I would not be able to keep busy.Many foreigners come to eat with their families. "

"Sit down, I'll pour you some water. Will knows you're coming back, so he's been asking for the past two days."

After this trouble, the remaining two tables of guests were not in the mood to eat.

The three visited the warship for a long time, and did not disembark until after one o'clock in the afternoon.

Luke also walked up, didn't speak, but was ready to do it.

Around Christmas is the busiest time for restaurants in Chinatown. The restaurant was overcrowded in the week before Christmas, and the number of reservations reached two or three times the usual amount.

Luke ordered a glass of cold beer first, and drank more than half of it in one go, quenching his thirst and hunger.

The baked buns came up first, and Luke ate them in four mouthfuls. He finally had food in his stomach, so he asked, "Dad, what do Boss Zhang and his gang do? Why are they eating free food in the store?"

"Brother Wil." The little fat man picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp. He was thirsty and tired after running all day today.

"As long as there is meat." The little fat man didn't pick.

Luke was about to chase him out to have a look, when Li Zhaonian waved his hand angrily, "Leave him alone, let him go.

Luke asked, "Dad, do you need me to help uncle solve it?"

Li Zhaofeng took a knife, cut two pieces of mutton and distributed them to his two sons, and then said, "They belong to Heshengtang, and that boss Zhang is a gang leader, and he is half a fellow villager with us.

Li Zhaofeng said, "Don't worry, we're tired after traveling all day, so we just sat down for a rest.

This is a real warship, and you can look at it casually, many of which are families with boys.

Yao Xin gave her husband a push, "Okay, my son is getting older, so don't say a few words.

"Brother, Luke, Jack, come in and sit down." A Chinese woman in her 40s welcomed the three of them into the restaurant with a smile on her face.

Afterwards, I went to the Empire State Building, Fifth Avenue and Times Square. Looking at the dark heads, I felt as if I had returned to a certain pedestrian street in Huaguo.

Jimanxiang Restaurant.

This is the difference between father and mother. Even if Linda brings two brothers to visit here, the three of them will not have a common language.

I apologize on behalf of the child. "

"It's not busy, I stopped accepting new customers half an hour ago, and the dishes are almost ready.

Seeing the world's major banks and the New York Stock Exchange lined up on both sides of the street, I had no choice but to believe it.

Although the Chinese also celebrate the New Year, it is different from domestic ones.

Li Zhaofeng persuaded, "Zhaonian, don't say a few words, Will is also kind."

……

Among the four people, the bald head is the boss, and if you start to deal with him first...

That way Luke didn't help them, he hurt them.

After eating hot dogs at a roadside stand, the father and son rushed to downtown Manhattan by car without rest.

If you really want to deal with this group of gang members, you have to rely on connections. It is not difficult to deal with them. The hard part is to scare them and make them dare not retaliate.

My dad is cleaning up in the back kitchen, preparing for New Year's Eve and taking a two-day break during the Chinese New Year. "

Rather than being overwhelmed by them, it is better to quit as early as possible. "

"You two have a bad temper!" Yao Xin hurried to the door, but there was no sign of his son.

The little fat man was too hungry to walk, and hugged Luke's arm tightly, "Brother, I want to eat."

"You are right.

Luke noticed the people at the table just now. They had a loud voice, punched while drinking, and seemed to be of low quality.

Is it time for you to settle this account? "

This is interesting, and military fans should not miss it.

"It's not easy to come back, so just stay at home for a few more days. My aunt will cook something delicious for you."

Will curled his lips, "It's good if he figured it out, Chef Li and his wife went back to China for the New Year this year, and there were two people missing in the store, and I also quit. He and my mother are the only two people in the store.

Who ever wanted to stick to it, basically come once or twice a month, every time they talk about keeping accounts, but never mention the matter of clearing accounts.

Li Zhaofeng said, "It's not an outsider either, go get busy and leave us alone."

Who did you learn from? "

"Will." Luke looked at the young man, whose appearance was somewhat similar to that of his uncle, who was shorter and thinner than himself.

"Keep you @#￥%...I'll give you a face." The blue-haired man pointed at Will's nose, drooling wildly.

"You walk slowly."

You go to work. "

The most famous thing on Wall Street is the big copper bull. There are many people gathered around it, and people of all skin colors want to touch it.

The museum displays the USS Intrepid aircraft carrier, the USS Growler submarine, the Concorde and the Lockheed A-12 supersonic surveillance plane.

The smile faded from Will's face. "It's $150."

The Spring Festival is not a statutory holiday in the United States, and there is no holiday on this day.

The bald man took a drag on his cigarette and asked Li Zhaonian, "Boss Li, you guys didn't bring any money today, can you keep the account first?"

"It's because we are fellow villagers that I take care of your business. I don't like to go to other shops."

"Row."

Although he has never opened a restaurant, he also knows that restaurant owners hate this kind of customers the most.

After this trip, it was already past five in the afternoon, and we rushed to the last stop, Chinatown.

Going forward for more than 100 meters, I set up a lamb shop.

"It's not enough, but other people's homes are open in the second grade of junior high school, and my dad can't stay at home.

After a while, a young Chinese man in his early 20s came out, holding a teapot in his hand, and poured tea for the three of them, "Uncle, Luke, Jack."

The cruise ship sails to Pier 86, where there is a military and maritime history museum.

Clean up, it's time for us to eat. "

Your uncle knows that. "

"I just graduated this year, and I didn't find a suitable job, so I was arrested by my parents." Will glanced at his watch, "Today is the last day of business in the store, and the store closes early. rest."

"Our store does not accept credit, and others certainly cannot. But I have to give you face.

Li Zhaofeng watched the elder son finish the baked buns in a few bites, and wanted to give the remaining one to the elder son, but the younger son also finished his meal, and he regretted that there would be less. Fortunately, the roast leg of lamb was also served, so he was relieved embarrassing,

I can't finish it, I can have it for breakfast tomorrow morning.

I just invited him to dinner a few times.

He has a gang background, and your uncle doesn't dare to offend him.

Will's face became even more ugly, "Boss Zhang, every time you come here you still say to keep accounts, it seems that it's Chinese New Year, and our store will be closed tomorrow.

Sure enough, looking at the menu, there are secret grilled lamb, large plate chicken, red willow skewers, grilled buns, strips, hand pilaf, baked naan, etc.

Besides, we are all fellow villagers, and you can still miss my meal money. "

Luke squeezed into the crowd and touched the bull's head, hoping to make more money next year.

After all, this Chinatown is different from the outside, and this matter has not been resolved. "

This restaurant mainly deals in Jizhou cuisine. Compared with the common Sichuan and Cantonese cuisines, Jizhou cuisine is not well-known, but relatively speaking, there are relatively few restaurants and the competition is small.

Luke looked up at the plaque and knew it was a Northwest restaurant.

Luke said, "I came back yesterday."

Raising him so big for nothing, he would blow up his hair after just a few words.

Li Zhaofeng shook his head, "Forget it, this matter cannot be explained in a few sentences.

Li Zhaofeng yelled, and the two brothers took a group photo with Tongniu.

Li Zhaonian was busy apologizing again, and even gave discounts to the other two tables.

"Go to whoever you want, I'm quit!" Will's eyes were red, and he ran out without saying a word.

Luke asked, "Will, have you graduated from college yet?"

"Auntie."

"It's time to take a rest. In the past few years, I have reserved tables for the Chinese New Year, and basically never rested 365 days a year." Li Zhaofeng laughed, "How did your dad figure it out this year?"

"Eat mutton."

Otherwise, Luke would go ahead and they would go to the restaurant to make trouble, and uncle's restaurant would not even want to do business.

The bald man wearing a leather jacket next to him said, "Let's keep an account, and we will settle it later."

Will was angry and annoyed, and Li Zhaofeng grabbed his arm, but he had no choice but to watch this group of freeloaders swagger away.

The father and son were a little tired after playing all day. They came to Chinatown not for fun, but for dinner.

He can't do it even if he wants to. "

An Asian man with dyed blue hair snorted, "Damn it, it sounds like how big your food is."

Li Zhaofeng smiled, "Let's go, there is a restaurant in front, I'm sure you haven't eaten there."

One roast leg of lamb, one small plate of chicken + trouser belt noodles, ten red willow skewers, grilled fish, spicy lamb feet, three baked buns, one fried rice noodles, one hand pilaf, and one baked naan.

In his words, he can set up as many tables as possible, and I can also help when the time comes. The kitchen and dining room run at both ends, and I am really too busy to hire two people when I come. "Will had some reluctance on his face.

The bald man took two steps, turned to Will and said, "Boy, there are rules in Chinatown in Chinatown. Learn from your father. It's not easy for him to set up this business, so don't let it fall into your hands."

In a different place, without the police uniform, Luke felt a little uneasy.

Thinking of this, Luke envied that guy Anthony a little bit. The FBI's name is easy to use anywhere, and he doesn't have so many scruples. Even in a foreign country, he can bluff people.

If you have a chance, you have to get an identity, otherwise you won't even dare to leave Los Angeles.

After all, Li Zhaofeng underestimated his two sons. After eating all this, there was basically nothing left, let alone packed dishes, and the two brothers also shared the staple food.
