Chapter 27 Bolton's Advice(1/2)
Taosi returned to California again and felt particularly relaxed this time.
The police recorder in his hand not only didn't contain any big words that could interest him, but it was also hard for him to hear the small words that kept popping up in recent days.
"It's Christmas tomorrow, can you stop holding that broken thing?"
Jin Xizhen stood in the kitchen and complained impatiently, listening to the "sizzling" sound coming from the police recorder in Tao Xi's hand.
Tao Xi did not influence the consciousness of others at all. Instead, he asked Jin Xizhen: "You also know that it is Christmas, why did you come to my house?"
Jin Xizhen casually rubbed her water-covered hands on the Armani suit, took out an NBA Christmas ticket from her bag and threw it on Tao Xi.
“There’s a Christmas Day game tomorrow night between the Clippers and the Lakers!”
"That's the team you spent 200 million US dollars on. Are you sure you don't want to go and see it?"
When Taosi heard this, he took a look at the ticket with great interest. The huge golden font marked the showdown time between the Clippers and the Lakers.
After thinking carefully about it, Taosi still refused. Even though the Clippers invested so much money, a large part of it was spent on stadium construction. There is really nothing familiar about player transactions for the Clippers this season.
players.
Moreover, the NBA League is hinting overtly and covertly that the Clippers must abide by the rules of the NBA League and cannot just buy and buy just because you have money!
After all, the first thing Kim Hee-jin did when he took over the Clippers was to go to the Celtics with a truckload of U.S. dollars to buy Michael Jordan, the most popular player.
At that time, Jin Xizhen made harsh words to the outside world: "If one car is enough, I will call for another car!"
Since then, the Clippers have been alerted by all team owners in the entire NBA. Once any Clippers scouts arrive, their venue will be evicted.
"Taosi, what do you think about me buying a sports TV station to broadcast Clippers games? If I can buy a few players next year and lead the entire team into the playoffs, then the Clippers will be awesome.
Got it!"
Tao Xi hesitated for a long time after hearing Jin Xizhen's idea. Since Reuters, the New York Post and the Panama Star reported it to him, in addition to using these to build momentum for the Panama Grand Canal, it was a matter of economic value.
Never done either.
"Actually, I am also very interested in what you are saying, but my pocket is not as rich as you think."
Jin Xizhen was not in a hurry but patted Tao Xi happily: "Bank! A lot of banks want to provide loans to the Clippers. You don't know that since I took over the Clippers and paid off all the bank loans, those people
I wish I could live in front of the general manager’s office every day, just begging me to get a loan!”
To be honest, since Taosi earned a fortune in Nicaragua, Taosi is no longer so eager for the Clippers' needs.
After all, the existence of the Clippers was based on Taosi's lack of money in his pocket, but whether it is Neil Express or Neil Cinema, their reputation is greater than that of the Clippers.
"Okay, you can just make your own arrangements."
"As long as you don't ask me for money, the rest is up to you."
Seeing Tao Xi's generosity, Jin Xizhen immediately kissed Tao Xi on the cheek.
When Tao Xi saw Jin Xizhen put the apron and the spatula in his hand back into the kitchen, Tao Xi immediately asked: "Isn't it right? Are you so realistic? You haven't finished cooking yet! You just left?"
"
"I suddenly have something else to do, why don't you order takeout yourself?"
Tao Xi shook her head helplessly when she saw Jin Xizhen walking to the door, waving her hands and leaving coolly.
Tao Xi looked at the empty room and had no choice but to get up and walk towards Los Angeles Prison No. 86.
When Tao Xi once again stepped into the long-lost sewer, Tao Xi actually felt a little bit strange. Not even a child could be seen in the originally bustling sewer. Anyone who could run and move in the sewer basically went there.
Worked as a delivery boy for Tao Xi.
Occasionally, the few adults who can be seen are either drug addicts or have drunk too much. The sewers in the entire Los Angeles County have become much safer. It is only at night that you may see some of the sewer scenery that used to make people on the ground talk about it.
The sewers of Prison No. 86 are still the same as before.
A few rays of sunlight slanted in from a square hole, and a small tree was planted not far from the hole.
"Is anyone there?"
After Tao Xi shouted at the entrance of the cave, a stone fell down along the entrance of the cave.
"Oh, isn't this my little Tao Xi? I heard that you contracted the Panama Canal?" Bolton is still in the same prison uniform as before, but his current mental state is much better than before.
Tao Xi saw his godfather scratching the back of his head shyly and explained: "I don't like those guys who look at people through their nostrils. I hope they can respect me!"
"Congratulations, you did it!"
Bolton pulled out a cigarette from somewhere and started smoking slowly.
Tao Xi was still sitting cross-legged in the sewer as before, looking up at Bolton, waiting for his godfather's next words.
“Is it easy to do business along the Panama Canal?”
"It should be pretty good. Godfather, I can coordinate it if you need it."
After hearing Taosi's answer, Bolton took another deep drag on his cigarette and said slowly: "How much influence can you have in Panama?"
Taosi, who pondered for a moment, replied seriously: "It's very big. If it goes well, it will be the same as the situation in Nicaragua. A person who neither the United States nor the Soviet Union hates will be in charge of that country."
When Bolton heard Tao Xi's words, he looked at Tao Xi in surprise.
Panama is the back garden of the United States. If Taosi can really do this, it will be really awesome.
"Then let's arrange some people to work near the Panama Canal."
When Tao Xi heard the word "some people" used by the godfather, he didn't think deeply about it.
Tao Xi just nodded: "Uncle Bolton, don't worry, I will arrange these people."
"Taoshi has a party in Compton next week, you can go on my behalf then!"
Bolton lowered his head and looked at Tao Xi, who was sitting cross-legged in the sewer with a half-smile on his face.
As the founder of the Blood Gang, he was very lucky to have such a godson. He not only managed to build such a large family business in the huge California by himself, but also won the right to operate the Panama Canal by playing both sides!
Without Taosi, Bolton believes that he would still be in prison planning how to drive those damn Mexican Mafia out of California!
Now, tens of thousands of people from the Blood Gang have a way out. Not only can they find a way out around the Panama Canal, but they also have agents like Neil in California to help them clear their name.
It was so perfect that for the annual convention in California, Bolton planned to let Tausi represent him.
Tao Xi tilted his head and asked curiously: "What kind of party is this?"
"A party where all Californians can officially get to know you."
"I heard from Jin Xizhen that you didn't forget your job as a nightwalker even after you ran to Panama."
"You also bought a lot of newspapers, right?"
"If you can get their approval at the meeting, no matter where you are in the United States, those people will buy your face!"
"It's just that there are more CIA and FBI at the door."
Tao Xi, who was suddenly enlightened, understood Bolton's subtext in an instant. Tao Xi, who frowned, also remembered a high-end banquet that Kushner took him to when he was a child.
Although everyone at that banquet was dressed in suits and ties, there were stories written on everyone's faces.
It was at that time that Tao Xi learned about the Crip Gang, which was fighting the most fiercely with the Blood Gang.
"Uncle Bolton, is it the conference I went to when I was a kid?"
Bolton smiled and nodded without further explanation.
If Tao Xi participates in this event on behalf of the Blood Gang, it means that Tao Xi is willing to be implicated in Bolton's karma.
He did not force Tao Xi, Tao Xi needed to make his own choices.
Tao Xi grew up too fast, but his foundation was too shallow. At the beginning, Tao Xi needed time, but Tao Xi, who already has considerable strength, now needs foundation.
The time is different, and what is needed is also different.
"Uncle Bolton, do you actually know?"
"My career as a nightcrawler was just to make a living at first, but as I deepened, I found that the career of nightcrawler would provide many opportunities!"
"I want to give it a try, and I also need the support of the Blood Gang."
"I'd like to go and have a look."
After hearing Tao Xi's answer, Bolton looked at Tao Xi's eyes seriously.
When Tao Xi's eyes showed a trace of desire to become stronger, Bolton smiled: "Go! This time you go by yourself, just like I did before, I walked in alone and walked out alone,
If you need the Blood Gang, then you have to stand firm from that meeting."
"Although it's a banquet there, it's also a battlefield!"
"I hope your experience in Central America this year will not make you lose any trace of your previous blood!"
"Only if you scare them will they respect you. What a bullshit Mexican Mafia or Colombian gang. Let them go to hell!"
Tao Xi nodded seriously when he heard his godfather's words.
Tausi has no objection to the Blood Gang's involvement in operating the Panama Canal.
The endless blood gangs also have many talents, and with the withdrawal of the US military, both the United States and Noriega will strengthen their penetration and supervision of the Panama Canal in the future.
Tausi needs a group of people who recognize him to work for him. Only by firmly monitoring every inch of the Panama Canal can the Panama Canal play its role at the critical moment.
