Chapter 200 The temptation of billions of dollars
Listening to Yang Leimeng's resentful tone, Xian Yaowen smiled faintly, "When I was a child, my next door neighbor's surname was Xian. Well, that's nonsense. The whole village had the surname Xian. I called him Doctor Xian. When he was young, he came from a Doctor Fang learned a recipe from his hands. The main medicine is Gaoyao Morinda, which is specially used to treat women's diseases.

Probably because of his luck, his prescriptions are very effective. Women from all over the country come to see him for medical treatment. When he is too busy, he will give me a piece of pecking candy and ask me to help him pack the medicine. I am greedy. , I would go if asked, even though the way he asked for the medicine to be wrapped was different from the usual one, it had to be wrapped in the shape of a horse nose mask, and if there was candy to eat, I would do it the way he said.

Later, when I grew up, one day I suddenly became curious and asked why the medicine was packaged like that. Doctor Xian said to me mysteriously: Shaozi, listen up, the Gucci Horse Nose Mask can cure all diseases. "

Xian Yaowen clapped his hands and said, "I'll go to the department store after work tomorrow and buy two. You'll have one."

"Hahaha..." There was a string of laughter like silver bells, and the not-so-pretty Yang Leimeng smiled brightly, "Boss, no wonder you are so good at seducing Western women, you are so funny."

Xian Yaowen said calmly: "I also have a way with oriental women. In order to ensure that your love journey will not be too bumpy, don't be curious about me. Once you meet Yaowen, you will be in trouble for life. Remember, remember."

Yang Leimeng just closed her mouth and grinned again: "I'm not worried about myself. The man I like is not like you, the boss."

"Very good." Xian Yaowen nodded, "Next stop, the office. Your coffee beans are pretty good. Lend me two cups."

……

"Be careful."

When Yang Leimeng was driving the car and was about to arrive at the Caliente restaurant, a child suddenly ran out from the roadside. Qi Longque reminded him. As soon as Yang Lemeng turned the steering wheel, the car barely missed the child.

Squeaking, Yang Leimeng stepped on the brakes and stood there in fear.

"It's okay, I didn't hit it."

Xian Yaowen leaned out of the window and took a look, comforted him, then opened the car door and walked over to the frightened child. He opened his palm and waved it in front of the child's eyes. Seeing that the eyeballs responded, he bent down to comfort him, "It's okay. , It’s okay, everything is fine, tell me your name and I’ll treat you to ice cream.”

As soon as he heard that there was ice cream to eat, the child suddenly woke up from the shock and said, "Robert."

"OK, Robert, what should I call you dad or mom?"

"Mr. De Niro."

"Robert, I'll treat you to ice cream, and then I'll send you back to Mr. De Niro." Xian Yaowen opened his palm, "Deal?"

Robert also opened his palms and faced Xian Yaowen, "Deal."

"Good boy!"

Xian Yaowen touched Robert's cheek and took the little guy to the ice cream truck.

When the little guy holds a real ice cream, Xian Yaowen instantly becomes a good uncle in his eyes. It is easy to find out where his parents live. His father has a home and his mother has a home. They are both in the West Village. They are not far away. You can come back later. See off.

"Your father is a painter?"

In the West Village, there are ten paintings and seven paintings. It is correct to ask this question first.

The little guy nodded, "My mother too."

Xian Yaowen searched in his mind and couldn't find a painter named De Niro, "What about you, what do you want to do when you grow up? Paint too?"

"No, I want to be an actor. I like Marlon Brando and Montgomery Clift..."

The word "actor" reminded Xian Yaowen to combine the little guy's first and last name. Then, he glanced at the little guy's face. After a while, he gave up. Apart from the characteristics of Italian descent, he couldn't see anything about the little guy. He looks like Robert De Niro, that very affable little old man, maybe he just happens to have the same name.

When the little guy's gushing was over, Xian Yaowen touched the little guy's head and said, "God bless your dream to come true. When you start acting, can you invite me to watch?"

The little guy puffed up his chest and imitated the accent of an actor and said, "Your name and address."

"Ma Long?"

"Montgomery."

Xian Yaowen planned to imitate Marlon Brando to play with the little guy, but unfortunately he was sure that he was imitating only the Godfather who had not yet appeared, so he had to give up and pointed to the Catalan restaurant, "I am Adam, you can send the invitation to Third floor.”

"It's a deal." The little guy stretched out his fist and prepared a fist bump.

"Yeah, it's a deal." Xian Yaowen stretched out his fist and touched the little guy, "Do you like baseball?"

The method of using fist bumps instead of handshakes was proposed by baseball player Stan Mushew. It is only popular in small circles at the moment and has not become popular at all. It is generally impossible for people who are not baseball fans or people who use newspapers as information databases like Xian Yaowen. Know. "I like it." The little guy nodded.

"Very good, you can come to me when you want to fight. Now I'm going to take you back." Xian Yaowen imitated Tom's mistress "Two Shoes" in "Tom and Jerry" as he walked, pinching his voice and said: "Tom, I When you go to work, you must catch mice at home."

The little guy gave a military salute and said with a smile: "Yes, Madam."

"Soldier, turn left, step in step, walk, left, left, left, right, left..."

Xian Yaowen sent the little guy halfway, stopped to watch the little guy enter a building, and then hurried to the office.

As soon as he stepped into the office, he saw a stranger sitting in front of his desk, and there were two coffee cups specially placed on the table for guests. When he walked to the workstation, Yang Leimeng, who was probably still scared, fulfilled his responsibility as a secretary and informed him who the visitor was, so that his enthusiasm could start to overflow from the back of the visitor's head.

"Lawyer Bufalino, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long." With a smile on his face, Xian Yaowen's greeting had already been given before he even reached his seat.

When he sat down, Bufalino straightened his suit and changed from sitting casually to sitting upright. "Mr. Hepburn, I didn't wait long. In fact, I just saw you and Robert."

"Lawyer Bufalino knows this little guy Robert?"

"Met in Little Italy." Bufalino replied vaguely, and then added: "Mr. Hepburn, thank you very much for your sincere invitation. We talked on the phone the day before yesterday. I was excited for about half an hour. I didn't expect that I was in the lawyer's office. He is already so famous in the world, but just now I suddenly realized that this is not the case, Mr. Hepburn seems to be very familiar with Italians?"

Xian Yaowen spread his hands and said: "Lawyer Bufalino, you have also seen that the privacy here is not very good. Let's change the place where we talk?"

"can."

Two minutes later, the two of them were sitting in front of the outdoor seats of Katlian Restaurant.

It was working time, the sun was a little bright, and there were no other guests in the outdoor seating, so the privacy of the conversation could be guaranteed.

The two lit cigars and the conversation officially began.

"Lawyer Bufalino, first of all I want to apologize to you. I asked you to be the flower club's legal counsel not because of your reputation in the legal community."

Bufalino nodded, "Tell me something I don't know."

Xian Yaowen nodded and said, "It's not because of your cousin Russell Bufalino."

"you sure?"

"I'm pretty sure, let's put it this way, my business is like Coca-Cola. What I do, how I do it, the accounts, everything, can be disclosed to the FBI. I don't have to worry about investigation at all, and I don't need to use too many... well, comparison Drastic and sophisticated means, so I don't need what Mr. Russell Bufalino has. Mr. Bufalino, am I clear enough?"

There is a book called "I Heard You Paint Houses", which was adapted into a movie "The Irishman". The male protagonist is Frank Sealand, a real person who should be engaged in meat in a certain city at this time. Truck driver jobs.

Frank Sealand is not important, he is just a button man. It is worth mentioning that in "The Irishman", he was played by Robert De Niro, who may be the little guy Xian Yaowen just met. .

Frank Sealand serves a man named Russell Bufalino, who is the cousin of lawyer Bufalino. The Bufalino family is a relatively powerful family in Sicily. There is such a thing in "The Godfather" A clip: An actor godson of Tang asked Tang to help him get a role. As a result, Tang sent people to chop off the head of the "key man's" beloved horse and put it on the bed.

This is an adaptation based on real events. The godson's true identity is Al Martino, Don's identity alludes to Russell Bufalino, and the film Al Martino wants to win is called "The Godfather."

Of course, reality was less violent, and Russell Bufalino settled the matter with a phone call to the president of Paramount.

As Xian Yaowen said to Lawyer Bufalino, he was not interested in Russell Bufalino, even though he was a chamber pot that was a bit too strong. The person he was really interested in was Lawyer Bufalino himself and other New York State figure Jimmy Hoffa served in the International Brotherhood of Teamsters.

To put it more directly, he is eyeing the multi-billion-dollar retirement fund of the International Brotherhood of Teamsters. Since Jimmy Hoffa can secretly lend the money to the Italians to open casinos, of course he can also lend it to him for serious business.

He will give Jimmy Hoffa higher returns, and he will also make the operation reasonable and legal, and everything will be on the table.

Bufalino nodded, "That's quite clear. So, you are looking for me because of IBT (abbreviation of International Brotherhood of Teamsters)?"

"Yes, I am not boasting. I am a very capable businessman. I just suffer from lack of funds. Many plans cannot be implemented as soon as possible, which slows down the speed of making money. If I had enough funds to invest."

Xian Yaowen spread his hands, "I believe there will be big rewards soon, OK, Lawyer Bufalino, let's pause the current topic and talk about a small business about making money.

It's like this. I have a patent that needs to be registered. The purpose of registration is to sell licenses. I need money urgently. I can't wait until the patent is registered. As soon as it is accepted, I will start looking for a buyer. "
