Chapter 358: The first to get the moon is near the water and the tower.
Antonio probably didn't expect that the war would spread to him so quickly.
"I'm not in a hurry, so you don't have to worry about me. My younger brother has already found a place. The most important task for our family next is to quickly solve the problem of the old land!"
Antonio tried to bring the topic back to Dunne, but was interrupted by Dunne's words.
"My problem will be solved soon, now all I need is you!"
This sentence made Antonio look at Dunn resentfully.
Dunn was indeed delighted in his heart, letting you tell everyone everything about me.
Trying hard to suppress his smile, Dunn quickly finished the breakfast in front of him, then left without anyone else, leaving Antonio alone to answer Mario and Sophie's questions.
This little episode made Dunn feel much better. Maybe he was not happy to see his brother, or maybe he wanted to forget the failure of the armistice as soon as possible.
Today is Saturday. Dunn came to Proski's apartment and found that Proski was not at home. He was a little confused. What was this guy doing on the weekend?
I remember this kid used to love sleeping in.
In desperation, he found a telephone booth on the roadside and called Victor to ask him to pick him up.
At present, Zhang Dezhong is probably still floating on the sea. As an agent of Forbol, O'Neal should have less contact with him in the near future. After all, too much attention is focused on Dunn now.
Especially after that impassioned speech and debate in Congress, it is estimated that many people will be keeping an eye on Dunn in the near future. Although he has already reached an agreement with the arms dealers, he will definitely not make too many ceasefire remarks in the next step.
But things have already happened. As long as Dunn is still here, this trip back to China will probably attract the attention of the United States and all sides.
Of course, during this period of time, he couldn't have too much contact with the CIA's old rival, Fobole.
About 10 minutes later, Victor's car arrived downstairs of Plukski's apartment.
"Hey! It's really hard to see you. You didn't even tell me you came back!"
After seeing Dunn standing on the side of the road, Victor stopped the car, rolled down the window and greeted him. Dunn got into the car without saying much.
"I just got home last night and didn't have time to say hello to you. Today I wanted to find Plucksky first, but I didn't expect he wasn't home!"
After hearing what Dunn said, Victor shook his head helplessly.
"I don't think you've been back recently! Pavel moved away a long time ago!"
"moved?"
Dunn asked in surprise, then he understood.
Indeed, although the current smuggling routes are mostly handed over in San Francisco, some goods must be transported to the East Coast, and from time to time some ships will stop near New York on the East Coast.
As the actual protector of the smuggling route, Plucksky could of course share a lot of the profits. It was natural for him to move to a new house after he had money. Dunn even estimated that the money Plucksky had earned so far was more than enough to buy an apartment in the New York area.
"Yes, he has already moved away! He rented an apartment in the suburbs of New York for the convenience of work! I will take you to find him!"
Now Victor is driving towards New York.
"Actually, I basically live in San Francisco now. If you hadn't called me today, I would have gone back to San Francisco in the afternoon to look after the smuggling business. Clay's next batch of ships will probably arrive in San Francisco in the next day or two. Do you have time to meet with Clay?"
"That's not necessary!"
Dunn simply shook his head and refused.
It can be said that he and Zhang Dezhong have met the longest number of times and for the longest time. Now the smuggling business has become bigger and bigger, and there are more and more ships on the entire smuggling route. In particular, the smuggling team has recently contracted the business of smuggling South Korean citizens and made a lot of money.
At the same time, this also gave Zhang Dezhong plenty of opportunities to meet Dunn in South Korea.
So now there is really no need for Dunn to meet Zhang Dezhong in the beautiful country.
"If I want to see him, I can see him directly in the Far East."
Victor nodded.
"Looking at your current appearance, you seem to be living a very comfortable life!"
Dunn looked at Victor jokingly.
"It's a little better than before, but not much. After all, the bulk of the business is controlled by my father! I can only get a small portion of it! To be honest, I'm still working for the gang! The most important thing is to work for my dad!"
Before, Victor’s position in the Saliol family was not that high. At most, he was a second-generation gangster and not many people dared to offend him.
This smuggling route within the Saliol family was opened up by him, but unfortunately, this smuggling route was also managed by his father.
Apart from the share he handed over to the gang, Victor's father did not give Victor much pocket money.
Victor would only get the funds when Bass was laundering some dirty money, but a considerable portion of it had to be returned to his father after completing the task.
This made Victor somewhat depressed. After all, he didn't get as much as Prokuski.
But compared to the previous days, life is much better.
"You've always been extravagant when it comes to spending money. If I really give you the financial power, I'm afraid a lot of money will be gone before it's warm enough to keep it warm!"
Dunn also knew Victor very well and knew that this kid's friendship was basically bound to go bad.
Among the friends, Victor is the most troublesome one.
"I have actually changed a lot. I haven't participated in gambling for a year. If I can control my desire to spend money, I will definitely be a qualified financial manager!"
Victor said unconvinced, but after seeing Dunn's face full of disbelief, Victor had no choice. He couldn't beat the guy opposite him, and he definitely had a bad record before.
So I don’t have the confidence to say anything tough.
"Forget it, let's not talk about this topic anymore. How have you been interacting with Bass recently? Is there any new situation with him?"
"It's still the same, there's not much progress! But this guy's reputation in New York is getting bigger and bigger, and many people come to him specifically to launder money!
Although he can't write a large amount of money, it is stable, and it is clean enough, there is no risk of being repaid by others! "
Victor also knew that this was a serious matter, so he quickly reported it to Dunn.
"And based on the correspondence between Clay and I, we have concluded that this kid would go to the fishing tackle shop of the person Victor was monitoring about every two weeks unless there was something special going on!
This fixed time of 10 minutes should be the meeting time they agreed on! In the past year, he has basically maintained this rule. I have recorded the occasional times, but I can't confirm what kind of information they will hand over at that time! "
Dunn nodded.
"You don't have to show me those records. Clay also took corresponding measures. When he was in South Korea, he reported several unexpected situations to me!
You two are on the same page on this point, and the notes you took are quite detailed!"
Dunn praised Victor generously, but Victor did not appreciate it.
"That boy Clay! Next time I see him, I will definitely teach him a lesson! He stole all the credit that I worked so hard to get! There's an old saying in their place: What you build resembles what you see on the moon! It's exactly what this situation is!"
Building? Moon?
Dunn was confused, but he quickly reacted.
"You're not talking about the one who is closest to the water gets the moon first, are you?"
As a handsome Chinese of Italian descent, it is really difficult for Victor to understand Chinese idioms and allusions.
"Yes, yes, that's right! It's really hard to understand the way Chinese people speak!"
Victor complained.
"That's because you don't understand the charm of Chinese!"
Dunn slapped Victor on the back of the head.
"But I'll remember your contributions. Keep trying to get in touch with Bas and see if you can find out some of his other secrets. Don't keep staring at the owner of the fishing tackle shop. Pay attention and see if there are other people who have closer contact with Bas!
It’s best to conduct a thorough investigation of those who often go to him to launder money!”
"I will!"
Victor said seriously.
"But this workload is a bit heavy. As his fame grows, more and more people come to him. He has quite a few repeat customers!"
But soon Victor said a little frustrated.
"Just go ahead and do it. I'm not in a hurry. I don't have time to deal with them before this damn war is over. You guys should contact them first, and when the time is right, we'll see if we can catch a bigger fish!"
The two of them didn't talk much about work after that, but just chatted. Soon, Victor took Dunn to Prokowski's newly rented apartment.
It can be seen that Plukski’s choice of location for renting a house this time was good. At least the surrounding business district was very developed and it was also very convenient to purchase daily necessities.
The rent in a place like New York is definitely much more expensive than in Empire State.
After getting off the car, Victor took Dunn upstairs with ease. What made Dunn a little depressed was that there was no elevator in this building, and the old man Prokowski rented a room on the 6th floor.
Compared to an 8-story apartment building, it is already very high. In China, where Dunn traveled through time, such high-rise buildings had to be equipped with elevators.
Arriving at the door of Propruski's rented apartment, Victor knocked on the door rudely.
